Dastardly Attempt to Burn abe House of
Peter Lindstrom.
Great Falls, May 6.-The value of
having night officers to patrol the
camp was again demonstrated last Fri
day night, or rather Saturday morn
ing, says the Belt Times.
Shortly after 2 O'clock a. m. Deputy
Portill crossed the bridge to the east
side, and when near McLeod's stable
he CHANGED to glance across the creek
and discovered flames shooting up
from one of the houses in the rear of
the Belt hotel. He fastened to the
scene and found a brisk fire burning
on the roof, between the main build
ing and lean-to, of a house occupied
extinguished the flames and then with
Deputy Kinney began an Investigate On,
which revealed a most dastardly at
tempt at incendiarism.
The house is large frame, with
lean-to On the roof of the lean-to,
and under the caves of the main build
ing, had been placed a roll of gunny-
ignited. In the side of the lean-to a
large hole had been bored and coal oil
poured in between the outer and inner
walls.
The house is owned by Martha Isaac
son and was occupied by Mrs. Peter
Lindstrom and children, who We're so
sound asleep at the time that the Off
GERS had great difficulty in arousing
them, and had the fire not been discov-
cred when it was, in all probability the
family would have been smcthered or
burned to death before they could have
been rescued.
The exact cause of the dastardly at
tempt is a mystery. as the house is not
insured and the occupants nor owner
have no knowledge of any enemy who
would seek to injure them or imperil
their lives.
The house is located in a very thick
ly settled portion of the town, the
houses being built very close together,
and if the fire had gained Roadway

ty, the man from Kibbey, Barker and
Neihart with a lot of bad checks and
a faculty for mortgaging property not
his own, changed his mind this morn
ing and on being brought up before the
district court, retracted his plea. of not
guilty of passing worthless checks and
pleaded guilty instead The court re-
manded him until Monday for sentence.
1t appears the man is really an excel
lent workman, as several persons from
the Little Belts have been at the pains
to visit this city and the sheriff and en-
deavored to have him released on
bonds, saying that they were willing to
furnish the bonds provided they could
get his services for few weeks.

Warm Welcome Home.
Great Falls, May 6.-Just one year
ago to-day the hlue-clad boys of Com
pany A marched down Central avenue
TO the Montana Central station and
boarded the train which was to take
them to Helena and thence to the Phil
ippines. 1t was a brighter day than
this, brighter in weather and brighter
perhaps, in hopes and anticipations.
They were patriotic young men, bound
to the front to- fight the declared enemy
of their country, not a lot of half-clad
savages. The streets were bright With
bunting and flags and the warm
weather gowns of the women. 1t was
semi-gala day.
Since that time the company, as an
organization, and individually, has
borne itself in a manner worthy of its
home, and all that could be done mas
been done. A few months longer and
they will be at home again, and though
1T seemed as If a greater public demon
stration could not have been made than
that of a year ago, there will surely be
a larger crowd and more expressions of
affection and admiration when they file
from the cars.
Not all of them will be present. Henry
