ARE LOOKING FOR DAVE.
Jealousy Aroused Him to an Act of Des-
peration.


Great Falls. Oct. 27.-The police are
looking for Dave McMullen, a gentle
man of color, despite his name. They
state that Dave has for some time been
in love with a lady of dark complexion
named Dorsey, who roomed in the
Luther building on Second street south.
They We're extremely chunfny for a
time, and in fact. lived together until
another tawny-skinned- Lothario put in
an appearance. Then Dave grew jeal-
Gus, and he watched the room by day
and night. He did not ask to have his
gifts and his letters returned--he mere
ly wished the other fellow to keep
away from there. 1t seems that Miss
Dorsey looked rather favorably upon
that other fellow. however. Last night
Dave visited the room and, finding tina
his lady love was absent, he opened her
trunk and messed up all of her clothes
and then set fire to the bunch For
tunately the landlady of the rooms saw
his action. and she speedily went in
and eXtinguished the blaze and saved
most of the clothes and probably the
whole Of the building. Later she noti-
fled the police. but Dave had skipped,
and is probably lying low somewhere
in another Montana city. Prior to this
business Dave has always borne a fair
reputation, but if he is caught now it
may go hard with him, on a charge Of
attempted arson.

A R0USING RECEPTION.
Belt Gave a Warm Welcome to Returning
Volunteers.

Great Falls, Oct. 27.-The reception
given the soldiers at Belt was all that
one expected from the patriotic little
coal camp. The weather was all that
could be desired, and it was estimated
that there We're over 5000 people on the
streets waiting to greet the returning
heroes. AT 10:40 a. m. the train was
sighted coming down the hill, and at a
signal the church bells pealed forth
their notes and the whistle at the power
house screeched long blast announc-
ing the arrival Of our boys.
The citizens committee welcomed
the soldiers at the depot and the line
consisted of J. x Cashier, the father
Of Belt, marshal of the day, the Belt

and 500 citizens, followed by many citi-

Arriving at the hall, the soldiers We're
greeted with the national anthem,

which all adjourned to the outside to
listen to the address of welcome. which
took place from the balcony of the hall.

AMONG RAILROAD MEN
T.. G, Mcmillan Will Be Succeeded
by w. G.. Lamson.
A TOUR OF INSPECTION
President Mellen and Party on Their
Way West-Many Important
Changes to Be Con-
summated.

2 T.. C. Mcmillan, who has filled the
position Of city passenger agent for
the Oregon Short Line the past six
months, has resigned and will be sue
ceeded by George w. Lamson, for some
time ticket agent for the Butte, Ana
conda & Pacific al Anaconda. Mr.. Nc
MILAN was checked out by Auditor j.
L. Craig on Thursday and yesterday he
left for ST. Paul, where he will re-
side. The resignation was rather sud
den, but the cause of it Is not known.
Mr.. Mcmillan came from Salt Lake to
take the place of C. H. Harper, when
the latter was let out. -...
Mr.. Lamson, who succeeds Mr.. Nc
MILAN, is a railroad man of long ex-
perience. He was with the Union Pa
cific prior to the segregation of that
road and the Oregon Short Line.
President Mellen of the Northern Pa
cific accompanied by Vice Presidents
kendrick and Hannaford and Chief
Engineer McHenry, went west on the
main line yesterday on a special train,
and will return going east by the way
of Butte. The gentlemen are accom-
panied by their stenographers and
clerks, and the official business of the
road will be conducted throughout the
journey, which will occupy about two
weeks. 1t is expected that this trip
will result in the contamination Of
many important changes on the line
of the Northern Pacific. There are
several lines under construction in the
Clearwater country in Idaho; import
ant changes to be made at and near
Spokane, and a half-millon dollars in
improvements at Seattle, which are
under consideration, and which will

The advance in Union Pacific COM
mon is due to a feeling that it has be-
gun to realize the benefits of the Ore
gon Short Line-oregon Navigation CON
solidation, says a New York dispatch.
The feeling is that Vanderbilt activ-
ity will find expression in a new ad-
justment of the large Western prop
critics. 1t not only suggests the much
mooted Union Pacific Northwestern al
lance, but also the naturalization of
the Vanderbilt Hartman Morgan plans
on such a scale as to assure perma-
nent harmony in the relations of the
largest competing properties.
The Canadian Pacific and 500 lines
have refused to withdraw on the first
of November the coonist rates to the
Pacific coast offered from territory
within 1000 miles of st. Paul. The
present colonist rate is s25 and the .lc-
ton of the two roads will probably re-
suit in a continuance of the rate over
the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific.
, eseL Larry Mallory of Pocatello, superin-
tendent of the Montana division of the
Oregon Short Line, was in the city
yesterday and left for the south in the
afternoon.
For the first week in October the
earnings of the Northern Pacific in
creased S69,611 over the same week Of
1898; from July / to Oct. the increase
in earnings was S1,029,5S4.

FOR KILLING CATTLE.
Stangle and Seifred We're Bound
Over
TO THE DISTRICT COURT
Holden Gray Was the Principa! Wit
mess for the Stats-Hides We're All
Cut to Pieces-Found No
Brands on Than.

Great Falls, Oct. 27-Andrew STAN
gle and William seifred of Belt were
bound over to the district court to-day
on their examination before Justice
Race on charge of illegally killing
cattle. The principal witness for the
state was Holden Gray, a rancher and
harness maker of Belt He said he
was at the slaghter house of Stan
gle & Seifred on the afternoon of Sept.
%. He saw the defendants there about
s O'clock. Stangle was inside and Sci
fred was on the outside, trying to
corral bunch of four steers, three
reds and roam. One of the red steers
had line back and a brocky face. He
hailed Seifred and asked him if he
didn't want help. Seifred told him to
see Stangle, and tell him to come. The
witness saw Stangle, who told him
to go to the creek and tell Jack Doyle.
who was down there with a Crow to
come up. Witness did not find Doyle
and went on to Belt. He secured the
assistance of man named Gourley
and went back at about s o'clock, and
the two hid in the bushes about 200
yards away and heard defendants kill
a steer in the slaughter house. They
afterwards heard them kill two more
animals. They knew who 1t was from
the voices.
After staying about for three hours
the witnesses went to the slaughter
house and found defendants had gone.
The door of the house was open. He
went back and told Gourley, and both
went to the slaughter house. Wit
ness said he stuck his head inside OF
hole in the corner. He saw a pile
of hides, which he commenced to pull
out and examine. He found then that
they had been cut to pieces. Found no
brands on any of the pieces examin
ed. He got hold of one roam piece; the
balance were red. He saw no heads,
but did see the carcasses hanging up.
The two men were frightened away by
some one coming before they had a
chance to examine all the pieces of
hides. Witness found a piece of red
hide last Wednesday in the rocks
about 200 feet from the slaughter
house. 1t had diamond brand on it
four inches long and two and half
inches wide. He also found pieces of
hide in slough about three-cuar-
tiers of a mile up Belt creek. This
was four or five days after the kill
ing.
On cross-examination witness said
that he turned detective because on the
same day witness partner had seen
Stangle and Seifred driving one of his
(WitnessD cows toward the slaughter
house, and he wanted to see whose
cattle defendants We're killing.

BACK FROM ALASKA.
The Mckenzies Very Successful in Their
Enterprise.

The Mckenzies Very Successful in Their
Enterprise.
Great Falls, Oct. 27.-Angus and
Alexander Mckenzie, who left Sand
Coulee about two years ago to try
their luck in the gold fields of Alaska,
have returned after a trip which was
fairly successful and which involved
many adventures. They took up some
profitable claims on Bear creek, near
Dawson, and still retain an interest in
two of them. They did pretty well and
have whole lot of fine nuggets and
dust with them as specimens. The
only trouble, they say, with the coun-
try is that what the Canadian govern
ment don't take the officials do. They
expect to return next spring.
The two men tell many interesting
stories about Dawson City and vicin-
ity, where, when they left. beer was
worth 81 bottle, some fellow having
a corner on it. 1t was very hard dur
ing their first year to get letters, even
after they reached Dawson, a man
having TO stand outside the postoffice
window for over two hours in the cold
before he could get what was coming
to him Like many other prospectons,
the Mckenzies took a dog with them
shaggy haired dog, that they thought
would stand the climate, but when they
got there they found the dog useless
and could stand no cold at all.
The brothers suffered many hard
ships during the first winter, and say
that the cold and lack of nourishins
food created great havoc with their
physical conditions. AS an illustra ton,
Angus enc day cut his knee with az
axe, making a deep cash, and carries
the scar to this day. The pain was
intenGe, but strange to say, not a drop
of blood appeared in the cut Other
experiences were just as peculiar.

and good citizen. While he trusted he would
reform and within the period of his sentence
learn the value of life and the cost of taking
il, he doubted il, as he hardly believed his mind
capable of a proper understanding of right and
wrong and he might again kill some one with
out moral responsibility,
ToGeorge Shepard he spoke severely. citing
the fac, that Shepard had killed a man in this
county many years before and it was through
no fault of his that the man he shot at Elatwil-
low did not die-he certainly intended to kill
him. OF the testimony in this case the Judge
said that he never before listened to such naked
perjury. that Shepard had perjured himself
and without question. Witness Wilkers0n had
also. but the Jury WAS able to distinguish be-
tSeen truth and falsehood and this verdict Of
five years was the result. Judge Dubose spoke
sharply of Shepard's habit of always carrying a
gun and advised him to abandon his desire to
be tough. else some day he would pay more
severe penalty than that now imposed.
Dwyer was the third and last to be addressed
by the court. The Judge said Dwyer's case
was remarkable in that he believed conviction
was had quite as much on the previous reputa-
ton of Dwyer as upon the testimony as it direc
tly concerned the killing of Robert Thornton.
He said: IF you could have put upon this stand
three reputable witnesses who would swear to
your pre- vious good character as law abiding
citizen and yorr disposal to obey the laws of
your state you would have undoubtedly been
promptly acquitted of this charge, and II is
largely due TO your inability to do so and your
well known propensities for being tough that

sentenced to the penitentiary but ] believe ii
is so IN your case and trust that you will re-
form and when you shall have served your
term be more disposed to peaceful pursuits and
less to following the course which you have in
the past" In this vein the Judge continued
for several moments closing with similar
warning as that given Shepard.
This morning Sheriff Shaw left for Deer
lodge with the four prisoners sentenced at this
term. Dwyer had considered asking for a new
trial and securing stay of execution shoould
the Judge refuse it and appeal be made to the
supreme court. Judge DuBose agreeing TO
grant bail in such interim. But friends advised
against this course. believing the man fortunate
in securing so light a sentence, all things con-
sdered, and the motion was not made. IL is

made for his pardon within year, tho on what
grounds il is difficult 10 state.
