Had One Girls Watch in His Pocket
 When He Married Another Girl.

New York, Feb. 20.-Agnes Gillen ot PA East Forty-second street made a complaint in the Yorkville court l against her former sweetheart, John 1 Rough, that he had refused to return some money and jewelry he borrowed | from her when they were engaged tO be married.
 When she applied for a summons for the man she informed Magistrate Simms that she and Rough had kept company for three years and that alter | they had agreed to wed a year age, he borrowed from her gold watch, a locket with her photograph in it, q lamp and $70 in money. He told her he was a private detective. Two months ago, she added, he stop ped visiting her and when she happen ed to meet him two weeks ago he told her he was going to Germany and might not return. She demanded her property and he said he would send it to her the next day, but he did not keep his promise.
 She learned that he was living at 348 East Forty-ninth street and when she went there with the summons for him found that he had married an other woman last October and was liv- ing there with his wife.
 What about your promise to marry this girl?" asked Magistrate Simms yesterday.
 T can't keep the promise as I'm al- ready married" the man answered, and he exhibited his marriage certih- cate
 Your conduct was that of a rascal ' said the magistrate. Unless you ra- turn her property immediately I'll en- certain a complaint of larceny against you"
 The man pulled the watch from his pocket and taking off the chain handed the time piece to the complainant.
 Where's my 1ocket?" she demanded.
 He unfastened a locl1et from his chain and handed that to her.
 q want the lamp and money you borrowed from me- she went on.
 Return her property or go to jail." the magistrate said.
 The man asked for time to go home and get the money and lamp. The magistrate allowed him to go on the understanding that he return the property within twenty-four hours on penalty of arrest.

SNOW SHOES IN WASHINGTON
Congressman Eddy of Minnesota Used
 Them to Reach the House

Washington, Feb. 20.-Congressman Eddy of Minnesota owns pair of snowshoes, or as they call them out in his country ''skees.' During the Dliz- gard MT. Eddy took down the snow shoes from the wall. where they do duty as a unique decoration and fast ened them on his feet. Then he ssllied forth from his home on Columbia Heights and was at once the admlra- tion and envy of all the inhabitants of that section. While the rubbered and booted and leggined population was struggling down Fourteenth street, seeking the railway track or any other track that offered the path of least re- sistance, MT. Eddy was sllimming along over the drifts and down into the valleys, like bir1 .n the air. His tall, gaunt figure was outlined against the sky, but the snOwshues gave him poetry of motion. OccaNiOnaliy he would loom up at -he top of a drift ten or fifteen feet in the air and then he would sink down out of sight, between two great hillocks Of snow. He went with great speed too, and had reached circle by the time the weary walkers were at U street.

UNCLE SANS INDIAN POLICE
ON THE BLACKFOOT RESERVATION

Great Falls, Dec. 16.-The killing of
Cross Guns at Shelby Junction a few
days ago calls special attention at this
time to the Blackfoot reservation sys-

tim held the position of first lieutenant
A number of years ago when all sorts

for their object the civilizing of poor
Lo, someone suggested that Indians be
enlisted in the United States army The
experiment was tried but did not meet
with hattering success; in fact it was
a. fiat failure: the military discipline
did not meet with the approval of the
Indians and the confinement told upon
their constitutions and tempers While
the Indian may be fitted, by careful
teaching, to fill many positions, there
him for, and that is a position as sol
dier in Uncle Sans regular army, and
the efforts of the good people who de-
sired to see the wards of the govern
ment reach civilization by way of the
regular army route will be doomed to
failure always. But if the Indian can
not be made a soldier of the regulation
pattern, he can constitute himself
reservation policeman of merit and
ability, and the man who first con-
ceived the idea of the present system is
entitled to more thanks than are great
number of the people whose civilizing
efforts are restricted to distributing
tracts and sympathy at long range.
On the Blackfoot reservation, north
of Great Falls, in Teton county, there

bloods, scattered over country which
allows each person a domain to him
self. To oversee all this widely sepa-
rated district and keep order in it
are Is Indians who constitute the police
force of the reserve. Heretofore the
police have always been appointed by
the agent and have served since that
time as he saw fit, but Major w. r.
Logan, the present agent intends
changing this system on the first of
January and allow the Indians of the
reserve to choose their own police by
ballot This, 1t is thought, will be a
most excellent move and one tending
toward giving the Indians voice in the
management of their own affairs The
experiment will be watched with inter-
est and the Indians especially are jubi-
liant at the chance given them to cast
their ballots as original American
Americans. OF course the agent will
be at the head of the police and can
remove peremptorily any who are
chosen, but this will probably never
have to be done, as the honors of of

and killing him instantly. The people
who sold him the liquor did an act
contrary to the law and will be held
morally responsible and their example
is not one to be pointed to with pride.
Possibly the death of Cross Guns may
cause the police to be more careful in
accepting firewater from the hands of
anyone, and if it does his death will
not have been entirely in vain and the
one weak point of the Blackfoot's
finest will be materially improved.

A MONTANA ENTERPRISE.
The Fire Clay Deposit and Rock Ouarries
of r.. NJ. Locke & Co.

Situated about five miles south of the
city, on the Neihart branch of the Mon
tana Central railway, are the busy
quarries of E. NJ Locke 6, Co. From
small beginning the enterprise has
been built up under the personal man
agement of E. NJ. Locke until it is now
shipping more material yearly than any
other enterprise of like kind in the
state. Every facility for handling rock
quickly and cheaply as possible is used
and the cost of laying all material on
board the cars reduced to the minimum
figure. twenty-five men are employed
and about 100000 tons of rock is shipped
monthly. The quarry is silica and fine
sandstone and is shipped to the smelt-
ers for fluXing purposes and foundation
and dimension rock for building and rail-
road work. The face of rock is 40 feet
high, and Chief Engineer Stevens of
the Great Northern railway says it is
the largest deposit of silica and sand
stone in Montana. The Great North
ern system uses this rock for all its
stone work in the mountain division
Builders will be furnished estimates
upon building and foundation stone
upon application. and would do we'll to
inquire as to quality and prices before
purchasing elsewhere.
Another branch of the business to
which especial attention is called is the
handling of a quality of fire clay I'M
excelled in the West; underneath the
layer of stone in the quarry lies body
of fire clay 30 feet in thickness, and
this is being taken out and thoroughly
Weathered before being shipped. At
present fire clay is being shipped prin-
cipally to East Helena and the Kessler
brick works, but especial attention is
being given to this branch. Fire clay
either ground or rough and thoroughly
weathered, can be had in quantities to
suit the purchaser This fire clay will
bear comparison with any used in the
state for any purpose and Mr.. Locke
has no hesitation in having any test
applied that may be devised to demon
Strate it's worth. In the process of
weathering the clay is subjected to eli
matte influences for from six to eight
months and all irons frozen and slack
ed out: this is done thoroughly by
Locke 6, Co. For lining converters and
such work it will be found the equal
of any, and in price far below all the
attention of smelter men is especially
called to this clay Messrs. Locke e.
Roughton have done business in north
ern Montana for - years past. and dur
ing that time their reputation for fair
dealing has never been questioned,
and their many friends are pleased to
see the firm of E. NJ. Locke & Co. meet
ing with such phenomenal success.
