Fred Byers, who was convicted. in Deer
Lodge in January, 1895, of grand larceny
and sent to the penitentiary for seven
years, was pardoned yesterday by the
governor. The pardon was made upon
the request Of Conley & McTague, the
prison contractors, who wrote a strong
letter in Byers' behalf to the effect that
he is anxious to get out in order to help
the family of his dead brother in
their spring work on their ranch near
Silver Bow. Byers' brother was killed
last Christmas while hauling wood, leav-
ing a widow and several small children
in destitute circumstances
After considering the case "a hours the
jury in the case of the State VS.. Joseph
c. Hurst, charged with the murder of
Dominick Cavanaugh, sheriff of Dawson
county, on December % last, agreed
upon a verdict of murder in the first de-
gree. Unless a new trial can be secured
Hurst will ave to pay the extreme PEN
atty upon the gallOws. His attorneys are
very certain that they will obtain another
trial for him, and will make the usual
motion to that effect at once. This has
been one Of the most bitterly contested
murder trials in the eastern part of the
| state since the famous Geddes trial. Ii
is said that very few persons expected a
verdict of this kind, as the opinion was
held that no person could be convicted
of murder in the first degree in Dawson
county. The verdict was, therefore, q
surprise, but from the evidence produced
the jury could not do otherwise.

ATHLETIC SPORTS AT PARIS,
GREAT Meeting Planned for 1900 with
a View to an international
ORGANIZATION,

The greatest possible interest is be-
Ing shown in athletic affairs in con
nection with the Paris exposition of
1900. A meeting Of the committee on
official sports at the exposition was
held and long programme was decid-
ed on, with a view to the continuance
of the organization in France after
the exposition. All prominent per-
sons interested in athletics in France
have been asked to cooperate. It may
be remembered that the next session
Of the 'Olympian games'' is to be held
In Paris during the exposition.
M. Merilon, chairman of the official
committee and also president of the
French National Rifle society, says:
"The session of the 'Olympian games
in Paris will probably put this organ
ization on it's feet, SO to speak. The
most famous athletes in the world will
meet here to decide on a basis for fu-
ture operations. The idea has struck
sportsmen and athletes here as prac-
teal and at the same time romantic.
We are heartily in favor Of continuing
the games. The success of next years
meeting is assured, since the most
prominent young athletes of the Eng
1ish and American universities have
signified their intention Of being pres
ent. The meeting probably will he
held at Longchamps, the Paris race
course"

FXCELs MARCON1 SYSTEM
w. a. Eddy Able TO Transmit Wire-
less Messages BetweenTwoK Kites
without Battery.

Marconi's is not the only telegraphy
that will send messages without wires.
According to w. A. Eddy, the kite ex-
pert Of Bayonne, N. j., tits equally easy
to accomplish the same result with
wires fastened to two ordinary kites.
Mr.. Eddy believes that if the two
poles Of sending and reception extend
high enough into the air enough cleo
tricity will be generated from the at
mosphere to do away with the storage
batteries and complicated telegraph In
struments used by Marconi.
A kite was raised to a height of / 900
feet. -Four hundred feet away another
wire Of the same length was attached
to two kites, fastened to the main wire
in sort of V-shaped branch. No bat
terry or electrical apparatus Of any kind
was connected with the kites.
Mr.. Eddy took his place at the single
wire kite. He made the connection be-
tween it and the ground, and instantly
a shock was felt by his assistant on the
other wire 400 feet away.
Mr.. Eddy brought the shifting hook
against the wire with short, irregular
blows. something like a telegrapher's
clicks. They were all felt by his asso-
ciate at the other wire. It took ten
seconds for each blow on the single
kite wire to pass up to the kite, shoot
off through space and come down on the
double kite wire.
With ~telegrapher's instruments of
only ordinary delicacy Mr. Eddy is con-
fident message could be made to travel
in much less time. ~

ADMIRAL DEWEY'S DOG DEAD.
Bob, Official Mascot of the Cruiser
Olympia, Passes Away on
Staten Island.

Admiral Dewey's dog is dead. His
dog was the Chinese Chow Chow with
the Caucasian name of Bob, which held
the position of official mascot on the
cruiser Olympia. When the Olympia
reached Tompkinsville Bob fell i'll. It
was not the rich diet, the admiral said,
although candy and cake were given to
him by most of the visitors to the war
ship, but a nervous disease from which
he suffered. Bob was taken to the horse
and dog hospital of DR.. Bath at New
Brighton, S. 7.
When Admiral Dewey came to see
him the Chow Chow dog was failing
fast, but he recognized his master and
tried to bark. He died during the night
of paralysis. Word was sent to the ad-
miral and he wrote to the hospital that
the dog must have a proper funeral.
Bob was carried to his grave by DIR.
