been right, all along. l never swore 10
a complaint. l had several made out
but after consultation with Governor

of guilty. and was again sent up for three
years. AT the end of his second term in
the penitentiary he again came back TO
Butte. but the town was made too warm
for him and he left. The next heard from
him was his arrest for murder at Provo
Utah.

of music. The StOr Skandinavisk San

such little setbacks failed to dampen
the ardor of those present.
The prime object of holding the fes-

their future amalgamation into one
grand interstate society, which will
give an annual musical festival. The
