A STABbING AFFAIR

Carroll was The scene Of a stabbing af-
fair about midnight last night in which
Martin Durkin came near being made a
corpse. The man who did the ~stabbing is
James O'Donnell, who is now a prisoner
in the couniy Jail. The trouble ocucrred
at the Flood house at Carroll where both
men roomed, and as near as can be learn
ed were friends. If not friends they We're
enjoying one of those so-called friendly
sprees last night, and while under the in
fiuence of liquor engaged in a quarrel.
The weapon used was a big pocket knife
which ODonnell thrust into the side of
his companion. O'Donnell left the place..
On the outside he is said to have told one
OF the company's Watchmen that he and
Durkln had got into a fuss and he
90 had stabbed Durkin. O'Don-
nell wanted to give himself up, but the
Waterman directed him up town and
ODonnell came, but he found the jail
locked for the night and did not awaken
the night force IN order to get in. Through
the Waterman Durkin was found in the
room where the stabbing occurred. and
was at once removed to the hospital
where he was attended by DR.. Spelman.
The sherlff's office and police We're noti-
ned and officers We're sent out to find
ODonnell. This morning about Z o'clock
he returned to Carroll and was arrested
by the Waterman. Later he was turned
over to the Deputy Sheriff Joe DAILY. Dur
klns wound is a long one in the side but
1t will not prove fatal unless complica-
tons set in. Neither of the men care to
discuss the affair.

While grown-up people may not confess
to a love for shadow ENTHUSIASTICALLY
to making them, or watching them, IN
childhood's happy hour. And-some of
us chase shadows all our lives.
Here are some helpful suggestions of
how to produce shadow pictures. One is
very old-the fact of our Lord-the other
is taken from a child's French magazine
how to make a Roman soldier-or several
Of them.
The face of our Lord and the face and
head of the soldiers are simply marked
for cutting. 1t requires some deftness
with the pencil and scissors to mark and
cut these simple pictures correctly, but
they are easier than the magic lantern
or stereOpticon, and are generally inter-
esting. especially to a family party Of a
winters evening. Place the cut between
a candle and the wall. a smooth, clear
surface, and the picture will appear,
which may be enlarged or strengthened
by moving the cut nearer to or farther
from the light.
OF course, the experiments must be
made in a dimly lighted place-the can
die light the strongest in the room.
If the designer or artist have some tall
ent for drawing, or knowledge Of it's prin-
ciples, other figures may easily be made,
by observing the structure of the forms.
and masslng the effects, so as to make one
stroke do for many, or. in other words,
massing detail, and maintaining the SIM
plicity of the whole.

MAY
HAVE TO LEAVE

Ottawa, Ont, Feb. THE position Of
the Canadian government regarding
Agoncillo is perfectly clear. Agonclllo,
so far as the government knows, has
committed no breach of the laws of Can
ada or the empire, and the government
is not even officially aware such a man
is in the country. If it can be shown he
is using Canada in any way as a base of
operations against the United States and
the government is placed in possession of
information to that effect, there car be
little doubt as ia the promptitude with
which the Canadian authorities would
find means to convince Agoncillo it would
be to his interests to Immediately leave
the country. In consequence of the
statements made by Agoncillo at Mon
treal, that he is using Canada for the
purpose of obtaining information he cam
not obtain in the United States as to the
military operations against the United
States, a power with which Great Britain
is on friendly terms, an active watch will
unquestionably be placed on his move
ments,l without, of course, in any way
violating the right of all who seek the
protection of the British security Of life
and property. Secret service agents will
acquaint themselves fully with his future
movements.

OPPOSE II BILL

The senate bill for the creation of
Powell county is attracting no small in
terest among the business men and tax
payers who are decidedly opposed to the
measure. Several volunteers from among
the best business men are doing all they
can to defeat it. Speaking of the meas
ure this morning, County Commissioner
T. c. Davidson, a republican, said the
assessed valuation of Deer Lodge county
as it now stands is IS, 900, 900, or a little
more. Should Powell county be created.
it would have an assessed valuation of
about $500, 900, and that portion of the
county at Lincoln, Bald Butte and Gran
lite Butte, which is to be added to Lewis
& Clarke county, is estimated at $780,
900. That would leave Deer Lodge
county an assessed valuation of $780,
900. If Powell county is created, Deer
Lodge county would be. on an average,
nine miles wide and twelve miles long,
making an insignificant area. Deer
Lodge county has nine sections and
twelve townships. Powell county would
gain all the best valleys and many prom
Using mining districts, while Deer Lodge
county would be nothing more or less
than a pan handle with one town-Ana-
conda. Powell county would be on an
average of 40 miles wide and Is miles
long. In that part of the county are
most of the government lands not taken
up, and the Northern Pacific lands for
sale to settlers. These are many of the
reasons why the business men of this
part of the county are opposed to the
measure. and they will try and defeat it
if possible.

A woman with the blues is a very un.
comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical.
The condition of the mind known as
"the blues" nearly always, with wo.
men, results from diseased organs Of
generation.
1t is a source Of wonder that in this
age of advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
BUSINESS in women. These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't under.
stand her condition should write to
Lynn, Mass, to Mrs. Pinkham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough COM.
mon sense. and is the counsel of a
learned woman of great experience.

fered for over two years with falling,

ROE IN ANACONDA
Supposed Warm Spring Robber
Caught.
HE DENIES HIS GUILT
Says That He Went to Nebraska the
Day Before the Hold Up Took
Place--HiS Statement

Sheriff Conley returned yesterday from
Billings without having in custody
George NJ. Roe. accused of the robbery
of the Warm Springs depot. Roe was
brought to Montana by Deputy United
States Marshal Homan of Nebraska. He
was arrested at Lincoln where his wife
and children reside. Roe was first ar
rested on a warrant sworn out by Sheriff
Conley of Anaconda. After his arrest at
Lincoln he was discharged from custody
on a writ of habeas corpus granted by
Judge Frost. He was then arrested by
the postal authorities and brought to
Helena, reaching there yesterday. Roe
is credited with saying:
IF l had been arrested for shooting
the president of the United States 1
could not ave been more surprised
than l was when arrested in Nebraska
and told l was wanted for that Warm
Springs robbery" said Roe, when asked
if he cared to speak of the case. Il
don't know a thing about it. There is a
big mistake somewhere" He emphati-
cally expressed his innocence and
wound up by saying he did not care to
discuss the case any more. He says that
he was employed at the insane asylum 81
days in the laundry Department., leaving
there January IA. or one day before the
hold-up. He went directly to Lincoln,
where his wife and five children live, and
secured a job in the laundry at the
Nebraska asylum, where he was working
when run down by Detective Hunt of the
Northern Pacific and arrested by the fed
eral authorities.
Deputy United States Marshal M. H.
Wall of Helena and r. G. Hunt, he
Northern Pacific detective, who caught
Geo. NJ. Roe at Lincoln, arrived in the city
this morning having Roe in custody. The
prisoner is now in the county Jail waiting
a hearing before United States Commits
sioner Charles Houck which may be held
tomorrow. County Attorney Duffy is
also anxious to prosecute the case of the
state against Roe who was arrested on a
warrant sworn out in Judge Boland's
court. However, Roe is in Anaconda and
will be given a hearing on the charge of
robbing the Warm Springs depot on the
evening of Jan. 14th.
