spheres that positively refuse to make
any response to them. They have
place that was assigned to others. Such
living at random is sure of failure, it
is missing life's aim. For when ener-

beyond our reach it becomes a hopeless

Great Falls, Nov. 2.-Contrac tor
Canary is not in the city at present,
nor does any one know exactly where
he is His friends say he is in Barker
getting out blocks to use in the paw
ing of Second avenue south At any
rate, Mr.. Canary is not on hand to tell
his side of the story and work has been
entirely stopped for two days past in
the tearing up of the proposed paving
districts. When Canary took the con-
tract for paving Second avenue south
he was several thousand dollars be-
low the next lowest bidder and he Sc
cured the job. For some reason delays
were experienced in getting supplies
and the matter has dragged along like
the Philippine war and the Job which
was to have been finished October Is

Almost the entire avenue to Fourth
street resembles the scene Of a dyna-

joining are something terrible to

Mr.. Canary's bondsmen are James
Greeley and Frank Coombs, and it
seems TO be up to them. In these
bonds it is nominated that IL the paving
is not finished by October Is Canary or
his bondsemn will pay penalty of $40
per day for each day traffic is delayed.
On the part of the council there is no
disposition to push the penalty, pro-
vided the work is done before win

the general impression. AS it now
stands the contract of Canary with the
city Is still in force and cannot be re-
awarded until five days shall have
elapsed without any work having been
done.
Whether Canary shows up with his
blocks or not, the paving job is in about
as badly mixed condition as it is pos
sible to be-

Great Falls, Nov. 2.-Sales of west

less than last year, and about 81 COO

cattlemen rushed everything which
would make beef into Chicago, AMI the
same was in a measure true of last
year, SO that the sales this year have
been largely confined to beef steers
without the usual amount of dry
stock. This, in the number sold, runs
the present year short, but the prices
will be found to average much higher

SHEPPARD BOUND OVER
He Is Accused of Receiving
Stolen Goods From Boys.
He is COMMITTED TO JAIL
Unable to Give Bonds, He Is Remanded
to the Custody OF the Sheriff-Min-

to Stop the Practice.

- The organized eoffrt of the mining and
smelling companies to put check to the
thieyery by which they have been greatly
:. annoyed for long time past bore fruit
4 yesterday when James Sheppard was
abound over to the district court for trial
-s1s.-er a. charge of receiving stolen property,
knowing it to have been stolen. For some
time the officers, under Attorney Beattie,
wholis In charge of the work, have been
after Sheppard, but it was only recently
they were able to ge. evidence against
him A few days ago Special Detective
James Grimes caught him buying guam
tity Of ore from boys, that had been
stolen from the Grant Extension. and his
arrest followed. He had his preliminary
hearing before Justice Marsland at Walk
erville yesterday, at which Deputy County
Attorney Alley and Mr. Beattie, as spe-
cial prosecutor represented the state. and
Attorney E. Q. Jackson appeared for the
defendant.
The first witness called was Clyde Cab
age. one of the boys who sold the ore to
Sheppard. The youngster testified that he
took seven sacks of copper ore to Shep-
pard's place. opposite the Braund house,
and sold it to him, Sheppard agreeing to
pay him $3.50 for the lot. The ore he got
from the Grant Extension dump. He had
previously sold sack or ore to Sheppard,
who, at the time, asked him to rustic ore
and bring 1t to him and he would buy IT,
At the time of the sale of the seven sacks
the witness was accompanied by a how
named VIII Morrison, who was equally
interested. Sheppard was told that the
ore came from the Grant Extension.
The Morrison boy took the stand and
told identically the same story as Young

boy tell Sheppard where the ore came
from. AaErrsr
John Buckley, another boy, testified tina.
In the early part of last week he sold
five sacks of copper ore he had taken
from the Grant Extension dump to Shen-
pard. receiving $3.50 for it. He said he
had been to see Sheppard several times
and had been urged by him to rustic ore
and bring it to him.
officer James Grimes told of being in
the vicinity of Sheppards place last Sat
urday and seeing the two boys Cabbage
and Morrison, take the ore there He
went over and got a sample and asked
the boys where they got it. They at first
pretended to have picked it up around at
different places, but at length acknowl-
edged they got it at the Grant Exten-
sion.
Attorney Jackson announced that the
defense would put in no testimony, but
asked for the discharge of the defendant
on the ground it had not been proved
he knew the ore was stolen at the time
he bought it. Judge Marsland did not
