So THE CASE WAS DROPPED
Ryan Didn't Want to Prosecute
Brother-in-LawD Dixon.
THEY HAD A FALLING OUT
1t Seems That Ryan Went for Dixon
With an Axe and Dixon Went for
Ryan With a Krife-They
Feel Better Now.

John T. Ryan's sudden change of
front yesterday afternoon was the
means of bringing the hearing of the
case of the state against William A.
Dixon, charged with assault in the
first degree, to an abrupt termination.
The hearing was commenced in JUS
tice Harringtons court at p. m., with
an even dozen witnesses for the state
and the defense. Deputy County Attor-
ney Alley represented the state and
Captain D. Gay Stivers and W. w.
Dixon, jr., appeared for the defense.
Seven witnesses were sworn on be-
half of the state, and John Y. Ryan
took the stand. He stated that he lived
at AZ Dublin gulch; that he was miner
by occupations; that he had known
Dixon 10 or dozen years, and that ne
had seen Dixon on June Z, the day on
which the trouble occurred.
please state to the court whether or
rot you had any trouble with the de-
PENDANT on that day." asked the prose-
cutting attorney, and Ryan replied: mo
l didn't have any trouble with him; 1
didn't have anything to do with this
case; l don't want to prosecute this
case"
You do not desire to proceed any
further in this prosecution" asked Mr.
Alley.
No. 1 don't. Someone else brought
this case; l don't want to prosecute"
That ended the matter and the deputy
county attorney requested that the case
be dismissed and the defendant dis
charged.
The accounts of the trouble are very
different, but it seems that Ryan and
Dixon, who are brothers-in-law and live
in the same house, have had a falling
| out of late and Dixon says that Ryan
took his revenge by blackening his sis
ter's, Mrs. Dixon, eyes. On June 7
Ryan and Dixon had rough and tum-
bic fight and Ryan took second money
in the melee. After a rest nyan, as
Dixon claims, came at the latter with
an axe and Dixon pulled a knife and
began to slice Ryan up into small
steaks. Ryan was pretty badly hurt
and up to the hour of the hearing of
the case was very much bent on pun
ishing his brother n-law.
Dixon bears very good reputation
among his associates. while Ryan has
| been arrested several times for infrac-
| tons of the law, and there is a warrant
| for his arrest in Justice Nichols court
| at the present time on a compla ni
| sworn to some weeks ago by his moth.

Special Dispatch to the Standard
Spokane, June 15.-Mrs. Jennie Boyce,
widow of Rough Rider Boyce, who COM
mitted suicide in Butte Wednesday, has
been living in this city for the past three
months. She said she first learned of
his death in the paper to-day 81 leave
for Butte tonight to attend the funeral.

have been living in a questionable resort

in such a resort in my life. | have been

cause my husband drank l do not be-
lieve he intended to commit suicide and
think it more probable he came to his
death by accidents He sometimes took
morphine to inducefsleep after a protract-
ed spree, and it is likely that in this in
stance he was intoxicated and took more
than he intended. Mrs. Boyce left on to-
nights Northern Pacific train for Butte.

THIRTY-TWO FEET HIGH.
John r. Bordeaux Builds Fence That's
a Match for Miss Green's.


John r. Bordeaux has built a fence
on his property near the corner OF
Broadway and Washington street and
there is an idea that he has beaten
his neighbor, Miss Flora Green at her
own game. Miss Green owns resi-
dence that is situated between two
houses owned by Bordeaux. A few
years ago she built a fence 80 feet high
on the west side of her lot in the rear
so that some of BordeauX's tenants
were deprived of light in their rooms.
Bordeaux tried to reason with her and
then appealed to the courts and both
the district and supreme courts decided
that Miss Green could build a fence 80
miles high if she wanted to. Bordeaux
then threatened that if she did not take
down the fence he would do some fence
building himself, and she told him to
go ahead. He did and the job was fin
ished yesterday. He built 32-foot fence
on each side of her residence, in front
up even with the sidewalk and one in
the rear on the east side, so that almost
every ray of light and sunshine is shut
out from Miss Green's house, and a
pretty spectacle of ends and heights to
which warning neighbors may go is pre-
sented to the people of that part CT
town.

FUNDS FOR THE FOURTH
Five Ward Committees Report
Having Raised $500.
THREE WARDS NOT IN YET
Complete Returns, 1t Is Expected, Will
Lift the Total Contributions Up to
90, 5oo-Lee Mantle Will Be
the Orator OF the Day.

The Fourth of July executive committee
held meeting last evening to hear the
preliminary reports of the various solicit
ing committees. The ward committees
from five wards returned very encourage
ing reports, and if the other ward commit
tees do as well according to the popula-
ton and wealth of their respective wards
and the special soliciting committees do
their part, enough money will be raised
to meet the expectations of the most en-
thusiastic promoters and enable the man
aging committee to prepare blowout i'll
honor of the nations great day that will
make all past attempts at celebration
compare as unfavorably with this one as
a small frecracker does with Chinese
bomb.
The five committees reported as follows:
First ward S120.5 80. Second ward S197, Fifth
ward s2l550 Seventh ward $780, Eighth
ward s70-a little more than a total of
500, AS these are the wards from which
the least is expected, it is confidently be-
lieved that when the reports from the
Third. Fourth and Sixth wards come In,
together with the reports of all the other
committees, not less than $500 will have
been raised This is the smallest amount
that will enable the executive committee
to carry out its plans, and for this reason
the committees yet to report are expected
to do their level best
Chairman w. B. Gallick of the pro-
gramme committee reported that Hon. Lee
Mantle had been invited to deliver the
Grafton of the day and that he had ac-
cepted.
The executive committee called another
meeting for Monday evening at $50 at the
city hall. 1t is earnestly desired that all
the soliciting committees that have not
yet reported be prepared to report at that

Summer Vacation DAYS.

Margaret Montgomery offers in the June
Ladies Home Journal some excellent sug-
gestions for spending summers vaca-
ton. The article is based on her own ex-
perience in passing her vacation in a Va
Gated Farmhouse and is therefore Pre-
teal. She asserts that the days were de-
1ightfully spent, that the party gained in
health and rest and that the expense was
small. There are probably enough vacant
houses in many of the farming districts to
give number of pent-up families from
the cities the opportunity for an enjoya-

Detective Murphy responded and took

Samuel Cohen, jeweler in Wyoming
street, told of seeing Boyce on the walk

nearly dead and blew a police whistle
to summon police assistance.
The jury returned this verdict:
That the deceased came to his death
at Butte, Silver Bow county, Montana,
on the 18th day of June, 1889, from the
effects of morphine poisoning, and
from the evidence, we, the jury, further
find that the said poison was taken by
