THE FAKE THAT FAILED
Dan Warren's Scheme to Create
Sympathy and Make Money.
HIRED A BOY TO ASSIST
He Feigned Having Committed Suicide
and Sent for His Wife to Come Quick
Before He Kicked the Bucket.
1t All Collapsed.

Police headquarters We're notified last
night about II o'clock that young fellow
named Dan Warren, a clothing salesman,
was on the verge of committing suicide
and an officer was wanted at once to pre-
vent the catastrophe. Acting Sergeant
Tom Walsh responded. He learned that
Warren had accosted a couple of boys at
the corner of Broadway and Hamilton
streets and had taken one of them aside
for getting hold of piece of money. He
told the lad he had wife living in the
rear of Wilson's drug store in South Arl,
IONA street, who had some money and
he proposed that he should go to a room
in the lodging house at the corner of
Granite and Alaska, and feign suicide
and the boy should telephone to Wilson's
drug store and tell the people there to
tell his wife that if she wanted to see him
alive she must come Immediately. Once
she came, he said, he would have no diff
ficulty in working her for $780, which he
would divide with the boy for his part in
the plot The second boy hearing the sui
eide part, hurried to police headquarters
and Sergeant Walsh, on interviewing the
other boy. learned of the scheme. A tee-
phone message was sent to Wilson's drug
store directing that the message be MT
delivered and at last accounts Warren
was in bed playing the suicide act and
waiting in vain for the arrival of the
woman.

Impressions of BoZeman,

Rev. J. L. Albritton, who delivered
the address to the graduating class of
the Bozeman college last Wednesday,
has returned. Said he: 'I greatly en-
joyed my visit. The apple trees are in
blossom and the grass and flowers are
everywhere. Day was just breaking
when I arrived and as I went to my
room in the hotel to get a few hours
sleep, a robin was singing his early
morning song, something they have not
done in Butte since / came here. 1t
was pleasant to listen to the songster.
The college of Bozeman has just closed
very pleasant year and was never in
a more prosperous condition. 1t was a
pleasant surprise to find a college in
Montana so fully equipped in all of its
departments. President Reid is popu-
lar with the trustees, the teachers and
the pupils. He impressed me as being
the right man in the right place"

SHE TOOK LAUDAKUM
Little Miss Smith Pouted Because
Her Father Scolded Her.
SHE'D BEEN OUT LATE
She Said She Was Too Old to Be Treated
as Child Any Longer-So She
Tried to Commit
Suicide,

In a fit Of passion for being chided for
ton, Miss Eta Smith, a pretty young
girl, whose home is in East Park street
attempted to commit suicide Friday night
She swallowed two ounces of laudanum
and came SO dangerously near accom-
plishng her intention that it required the
efforts of two physicians to restore her to
life She was out of danger yesterday
buG she was a very sick girl and it is
safe to say she will not again resort TO
the same method of repaying what she
seemed to regard as d parents presump-
ton.
Friday evening the girl was permitted
to go out with some other young people
She considerably overstayed the time at
which she was expected to return, and
when she got home between II and IL
o'clock her father took her mildly to task
for the improperly of a girl of her age
remaining out till such an hour when not
accompanied by some of the family.
The girl is the daughter of very indul-
gent people, who have always permitted
her to have her own way The father had
never before assumed to reprimand her
for anything, and although the repri-
mand in this instance was no more severe
than fatherly scolding and lecture on
the danger of young girls INDUCING in
anything bordering on improperly, little
Miss Smith seemed to think her father
was presuming a great deal. She be came
petulant, told her father she was getting
too old to be treated a child and evil
IDENTIFY concluded by forming a resolution
that if she could not do as she pleased she
did not care to live.
The incident was entirely forgotten by
the rest Of the family when shortly before
midnight the girl, with her sister, started
for bed. There was some laudanum in
the house of which she quietly secured
possession She took it with her to her
room When she had disrobed and was
ready to get into bed. the sister was
startled at seeing her place the laudanum
bottle to her lips and deliberately swal-
low it's contents.
The sister knew the bottle and knew
what it contained. In alright she sprang
toward the girl to strike the bottle from
her hand, but she was too late, the full
contents of the bottle, two ounces, had
passed the girl S lips before the sister
could reach her In alarm the sister
screamed to her parents The father, on
learning what had happened, dressed
quickly and went for doctor. DR.. Cow
perthwaite responded and reached the grI
within half an hour from the time she
swallowed the poison. By that time the
drug had taken effect and she was sink
ing rapidly. DR. Moore was also sum-
moned and the tM5 Th.ss---:c:c:.:- worked
over the girl until a late hour yesterday
morning before they were able to pro-
nounce her out of danger. The girl was
sick enough yesterday to make her sin
cerely repent her girlish folly.

This Is Fine Weather for launching.

We have a 560-acre ranch in Meagher
county right in the edge of White Sui
phur Springs, near the new mining
camp Copperopolis. There is a fine, new
eight-room dwelling house situated in
grassy lawn and surrounded by shade
trees. The house is plastered and paint
ed and has all modern conveniences.
There is large barn and stables, to-
gether with sheep sheds and pens. The
entire place is fenced and cross-fenced.
Is covered with irrigation bitches and
has all the water that can be used.
The land is in the valley of the Smith
river and is perfectly level; is a very
fine hay and grain land. The improve
ments on the place cost $4,000 and the
land is worth $40 per acre The owner
has gone to California on account of ILL
health, and we can sell the $50 acres,
with all improvements, including water
rights, for $4,000, one-fourth cash and
the rest on long time at Z per cent. in

For the Summer Days.

To preserve an even temperament on
these warm days it is absolutely neces-
sary that the system should be invigor-
ated by mild, cooling stimulant. 1t is
the unanimous verdict of those who
know that grain juices, properly COM
bined, afford the needed elements. Cen
tennial beer is just the thing. While
its Intoxicating properties are very linn
tied, its stimulating, invigorating and
health giving properties are in advance
of any other beer upon the market.
