IN THE DISTRICT COURT
Valley County Suit Against Nell
son Is Withdrawn.
REASON IS NOT KNOWN
An Answer Filed In the Suit of Matte
Cashier VS.. Duncan Nc
Leod-A Partnership
Is Alleged.

Great Falls, June 27.--A suit for the
collection of taxes amounting to S256 10,
alleged to be due Valley county from
H. II. Nelson, was filed in this court
on change of venue from Valley county.
A motion to dismiss the action without
prejudice was filed at the same time by
the county attorney of Valley county,
and was granted by the court. The
reason for the withdrawal of the suit
is not known here
An answer has been filed in the suit
of Matte Cashier VS.. Duncan Nc
Leod. The plaintiff, Mrs. Cashier
asked for $3.50 as payment for board
and is the oldest inhabitant of Belt
while the defendant is and has been
for years deputy sheriff at Belt, and
the case naturally attracted much at
tentlon. In the answer Mcleod admits
that he has boarded with Mrs Cashier
for seven years and that the board was
reasonably worth the amount which
she asks for it, but he has some off
sets. He says that during all of the
time he was partner of the plaintiff S
husband in the livery business, and
that Mrs. Cashier, by a peculiar con-
tract, was to have his services and
those OF his men and the use of his
buggles and other things, and in re-
turn she was to board himself and two
OF his men. Then Mcleod and Mrs.
Castner We're in partnership on IS head
OF cattle, and on an average Mrs. Cast
ner, according to the answer, MIXED
SIX OF the COWS and enjoyed the milk
and cream therefrom as well as en-
Joying the society of Mcleod and his
men at the stable. Moreover, she killed
eight head annually on an average.
There seems to have been sort of
partnership arrangement all the way
through, as the answer alleges that
when either or both Mr. and Mrs. Cast
ner We're away from home Mcleod ran
the ranch and for these and other SER
wees ne says he has received no pay
Therefore he asks for a Judgment for
$449.SO, money expended in the care
OF the sort of family herd and for an
accounting for the proceeds from the
cattle generally.

TWO ODD CASES.
IL huffman Was Found Guilty of Stealing
His Neighbours Hens.

HUFFMAN Was Found Guilty of Stealing
His Neighbours Hens.
Great Falls, June PIP. H. Huffman
OF Hardy was the central figure in two
odd cases in the justice court of w. H.
Race to-day. He lives on a ranch
about five miles from the station of
Hardy, on the Montana Central, and in
the neighborhood is Andrew Albright,
who raised a large number of black
minorcas, or speckled cochins, or some
other easily distinguished breed of hens,
This spring he found himself shy by
about 40 hens and started investiga-
tons He found, to his surprise, that
his neighbors on either side had appar-
emily entertained a fancy for the pecu-
liar breed of hen that he liked, and
each had small flock of them started.
He asked where they We're obtained and
found that they We're purchased of
Huffman. Albright swore out a war
rant, and this morning Huffman was
found guilty Of petty larceny.
In the afternoon he was tried again.
He was charged with having taken
from the Montana Central railway and
converted to his own use sundry SHOW
els, picks, pinchbars, spikes, bolts and
other hardware, all of which were
found upon his premises in sufficient
quantities to start a hardware store.
He was found guilty of this charge also,
and tomorrow morning he will be SEN
fenced by the court. The cumulative
sentence statute would be applied in
his case, but the law says that man
must be convicted and serve a term of
Imprisonment on one count before it
can be applied. Last fall Huffman was
found guilty of malicious mischief in
that he had kicked into the river key
of bolts belonging to the railway.

Horse Owners Warned.

Great Falls, June 27.-The sheriff has
sent to all of the horsemen and horse
breeders in the country a circular let
ter requesting them to pay more at
tention to their stock in the future. 1t
states that the value of horses has ma
terially increased in the past two or
three years, and that thefts of horses
are more likely to be frequent than
formerly. He asks as a matter of self
protection and aid in the detection of
the thieves that the horse owners pay
particular attention to the presence on
their places of suspicious looking
strangers, and whenever possible pre-
serve record of their description. If
these instructions are carried out it will
be an easy matter for the sheriff's Of
flee to follow and secure possible
horse thieves in the future.

Police Matters.

Great Falls, June 27.-John McDer-
mott was arrested this afternoon on a
warrant sworn out by the sanitary po-
liceman charging him with maintain
ing nuisance. According to the COM
planning witness McDermott has not
been a model of neatness about his
home, and he would neither clean up
che premises thoroughly or permit them
to be cleaned up by the men working
under orders from the owner of the
premises. Something seemed to be
wrong for although Chief Guern Of
fered to dismiss the case If McDermott
would clean up, the latter insisted on
being tried and the case was set for
Wednesday morning.
Pat Bird was sent to the county Jail
for 40 days in Justice Races court this
morning for petty larceny.

CITY COUNCIL
REFUSED Petition for Annexation to

Refused Petition for Annexation to tho
City.
Great Falls, June 27.-Yesterday even
ing the city council refused the petition
OF the residents of the settlement on the
north bank of the Missouri river below
the Fifteenth street bridge to be joined
to the incorporated limits. The com
mttee which investigated the matter
found that the assessed valuation of
the entire property there was so low
that the annual receipts from taxation
would amount to only $780, A decision
OIL the supreme court would throw the
care of the bridge at Fifteenth street
upon the city, as in the case of the First
avenue north bridge, and it would re-
quire the proceeds of 10 years of tax
alton to pay the cost of replanking the
bridge once. The receipts would be
slightly more than this by reason of
one or two saloon licenses but the cost
would still be greater than the returns,
and the council nightly decided to get
along without the addition ITO the city of
Little Chicago.
The specifications and contract for
the paving of First avenue south and
adjacent streets was referred to the
committee on public improvements am
action delayed for week. Several o.
the aldermen desired to look the speci-
fications over carefully and the city en-
gineer stated that he desired to go on
record as objecting to the whole thing
and desired time in which to make out
and file his kicks at the committee
meeting The engineer also thought
that the council should take steps look
ing toward the modification of the garb-
age contract for another year He be-
lieved that the work was not being
properly done at the present time The
subject was referred ITO a special COM
mittee composed of Alderman Grills,
Wadsworth and Wood.

GOOD NEWS FOR BUTTE
The Postoffice Has at Last Re-
ceived Recognition.
THE. FORCE is INCREASED
Box Rents Are to Be Reduced by Half
The Change Is Due to New
Rating by the Depart
ment.

It will be good news to Butte people
to learn that the Butte postoffice has at
last received some recognition from the
postal department at Washington and
is to have facilities that will come
somewhat nearer to being adequate to
theneedS Of Buttethan has been the case
in the past. 1t will be also good news
to people who find a postofTice box a
necessity to know that in the future
they will not have to rent the postoffice
to get a box. After the list of July
there will be three new clerks added to
the distributing department at the post
office, five new men added to the list of
carriers and box rent will be reduced by
Just half. The change is due partially
to the new rating of the Butte office
ana partly to the efforts of the post
master, George w. Irwin. 1T is wholly
SO with regard to the reduction of box
rents.
The Butte office has always been
Handicapped by its treatment by the de-
partment and has never had a force
anywhere near adequate to the business
handled. Previous postmasters have Ia
bored with the department for recogni-
tion and Postmaster Irwin on coming
INTO office supplemented the efforts of
ms predecessors by renewing the en-
deavor to get more help and reduction
w DoX rents, which have always been
higher than anywhere else in the
United States.
Postmaster Twins annual report for
the year ending March 81. the postal
year, showed receipts for the year
which placed the office in the 100000
classification This in itself entitled the
office to additional help and Mr. Irwin
sent in an appeal for such addi-
tlonal force as would enable him
10 give the city an efficient
service. He also made direct request
that box rents be reduced by one-half.
Yesterday his efforts were rewarded.
He received notification that on July
LIST he would be allowed three additional
distributing clerks, five carriers and
That his request with regard to box
rents had been granted.
Assistant Postmaster Flavin stated
last evening that the new help will be
put on the first of the month and that
as soon as they are broken in, probably
by the 18th, all the business portion of
the city, or the district bounded by
Copper and Porphyry and Arizona and
Montana streets will have four deliver
les day while all the residence Sec
ton will have two deliveries. With re-
gard to box rents, the ordinary boxes
which have hitherto been $150 will be
rs cents, and So boxes will be ST. The
drawers hitherto So will be LEO and the
bins" are reduced from 81 to 81. The
reductions go into effect on the first of
the month

fed his horse and closed the barn door,
as usual Yesterday evening when he
returned from down town and opened
the barn the horse fell outward and al

and the only clew to the mystery is a
small hole which might have been done
by a bullet, just below one ear. None
of the neighbors appear to know any
thing about the matter.

Electric storms.

Great Falls, June 27.-The presence of
electric storms at various points on the

periods of several hours when the cleo

IS STILL RISING.
The Missouri Is Higher Than 1t Has
Been in 80 Years.

Been in so Years.
Great Falls, June 27.-Reports from
points along the Missouri river above
this city indicate that the river is
higher than 1t has been known to be
in 80 years, and is still rising. The
Chestnut valley is flooded and the only
means of conveyance to the c. H. Aus
tin ranch is by boat. AT the Riverside
farm, between Ulm and Cascade, the
water is up to the roofs of the sheep
sheds and more coming. However, no
damage is reported that is at all seri-
Gus. The only fear expressed for any
thing along the river is that the dam
near Helena may be washed out and
with it the dead hopes of Helena citi-
zens. If the river only ran the other
way, Great Falls might float her dam
and the Boston & Montana works and
other advantages down to the deserted
village of Last Chance gulch.
