SEPTEMBER TERM.
Criminal Cases viii BE Disposed OF
Rapidly.

Rapidly.
Great Falls, Sept. 5.--The September
term of the district court opened this
morning with Judge Jere Leslie presid-
ing and full attendance of the mem
bers of the bar. In spite of the fact
that the midsummer term of court was
omitted the calendar is not at all over
crowded, and there is prospect of a
short term. There are few criminal
cases, and these will probably be dis
posed of rapidly. There was a short
age of the trial Jurors this morning,
only six putting in an appearance who
were not excused or whom the sheriff
did not return as out of the country or
not to be found. The court therefore
ordered a special venire to be drawn
of 81 names, and it was the middle Of
the afternoon before all of these re-
ported to the clerk.
Then the divorce case of Dora Dali
thorpe against Louis Dalthorpe was
put on and part of the testimony. that
Of the plaintiff herself, was heard be-
fore the court adjourned for dinner.
Mark Henry Bevan was arraigned on
a charge of grand larceny on two
counts, one of $215.07 and the other of
$1,363.51, and there is still another en-
which he may be arraigned later. He
awaited himself of the statutory three
days in which to plead, and will be
brought up again on Thursday
Edward wittingen, who was
such an enthusiastic upholder of
the merits of the South that
he tried the other day with
a razor to cut the throat of Swede
who made disparaging remarks about
the Southrons, was also arraigned on a
charge of assault in the first degree.
Howard S. Green was assigned to him
as counsel by the court, Wittingen be-
ing without means to employ counsel
and he also took the statutory three
DAYS in which to plead.

relatives had come to the road house
and murdered her and thrown the body
into the brush by the river. They had
also put a rope around his neck and
kept it there through the night and he
wished them arrested right away.
Sires and Reynolds took Prescott to the
jail while Ray went down to see If Mrs.
Prescott was still in town. The officer
found her no worse than she had been
for a week. 1t is evident that Pres
colt believes his wife's relatives are
working to separate him from Mrs.
Prescott and when his mind gave way
under the overdose of alcohol, he i'm
agined the murder. When the officers
returned and told him that they had
found the body all right he seemed
satisfied, but Is apparently still crazy.

Schurman a Delegate.

New York, Sept. 5.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: President
Schurman of Cornell university, will ac-
cept Governor Roosevelt's appointment as
a delegate to the trust convention in Chi
cago, though he does not expect to be
able to attend the first sessions.
"At 1t is a matter the serious duty of
which is really just beginning. l don't
care to commit myself to definite conclu-
sions," said President Schurman to-day.

Plague Is Spreading.

Bombay. Sept. 5.-Lord Sandhurst, gov
ernor of Bombay. in the course of a
speech at Poona said the plague was
spreading, and that owing to the failure
of the monsoon, not only the plague was
in the midst of the people, but grim fam
Inc was staring at them. He expressed
the hope that the September rains would
come to their relief and stated that in the
meantime arrangements would be made
to open relief routes.

HATHAWAY APPOINTED.
He Is Now Chinese Inspector for the Dis
trict of Montana.


Great Falls, Sept. 5.-Benjamin T.
Hathaway of this city to-day received
an appointment as Chinese inspector
for the district of Montana and Idaho
under the last exclusion act. His Off
cial station will be Helena and he will
report to David G. Browne collector
of custom at the port of Great Falls.
AS Mr.. Hathaway received this APP
pointment on merit alone, having re-
ceived the biggest mark at the civil SER
vice competitive examination in last
May, he is doubly to be congratulated
He was formerly superintendent of the
schools of this city and one of the ablest
men who ever held that office. He Is
also a strict republican, unfortunately,
and during the last county campaign
was one of the best speakers which his
party put in the field. But his con-
gratulations on his appointment will
come as much from democrats as from
republicans, for he is respected and
liked by both equally.

HE is CRAZY.
Oscar Prescott Imagines That His Wife
Is Crazy.

Great Falls, Sept. 5.-Oscar Pres
colt, proprietor of the road house at
Box Elder park, apparently has gone
crazy. Some days ago his wife brought
suit against him for divorce, alleging
among other brutal acts that he had
kicked her ribs in on one side. He has
been brooding over this and has drunk
constantly and heavily since the suit
was filed She has been lying i'll In a
room on the south side in this city.
Last night Prescott approached Deputy
Sheriffs Sires and Reynold and Marshal
Ray and was evidently in a state of
high excitement, for he at once ex-
claimed:
Come quick; there has been murder
committed. l want a warrant"
The officers saw that something was
wrong with him and finally led him TO
tell his story. He said that his wife's

THE WATERWAY ROUTE,

In anGher column appears an i'm
portanS letter from gentleman iu-
terested in the Central Navigation &
Construction Company. The state
men,s he makes are reassuring and
show the enterprise to be something
more than a mere diversion.
The comments Of the Astorian
Quoted in the letter were not prompted
by hostility toward the project, but
quite the reverse Of il. They were
uttered as caution 10 the people of
Astoria and as an admoniiion to Mr..
Mohr and 9th Ms interested in his
company that Astoria must he dealt
with on a business basis in the matter.
The practicabsuty and ultimate sue
cess Of transportation route along
the lines proposed cannot be Ques-
toned. But As,oria has paid for the
right to be suspicious-and paid dear
~. Those who come TO Astoria 10 do
business hereafter must come pre-
pared to prove both their capability
aud the good faith Of their entarprls,s,
else they cannot enlist the enthusiasm
and aid Of our citizens. This was the
purpcrl Of the Astorian's comment on
Mr. Mohr's visit and It has accom-
plished its object.
The writer Of the communication
has not overdrlwn the picture in re-
counting the opposition Of the railroad
combination to mis- enterprise. Us ac-
tive hostility IS natural The compile
tlon Of the waterway line will forever

is asked TO become interested to the
extent of one penny; if it IS asked
even TO give its passive acluiescence
in the plans of the company, the en-
tire good faith OF the project must BE-
shown and main-ain-d from the b. i
ginning
The writer Of the communication
published brings his enterprise ont Of
the clouds and down to solid ground
by giving the names Of some Of the
capitalists interested. This IS just
what was needed in Astoria TO inspire
the right deg,-a Of confidence. The +
names given are those Of men we'll
known for financial strength and
problty. Their connection with the
company confirms its legitimacy as an
organization. These are not the men
