MASS MEETING
Will Probably be Held by Newsdealers.

Will Probably be Held by NewsdeaIers.
The retail newsdealers meet this eve
ming at the Lincoln House, to decide
what course will be pursued in regard
to the two New York papers that are
now the bone of contention in their
ranks
The members of the association say
that their work among the retail deal
ers during the past two days will bring
forth fruit and they expect to have a
rousing meeting this evening
Considerable quiet work, it is
claimed has been done by the enthusi-
astic dealers among the people who buy
the Journal and World on Sundays, and
that they have found a large percent
age who are willing to drop the papers
unless the publishers come to terms.
1t is probable that a mass meeting
viii be called, and the newsboys will be
invited. The dealers expect that every
boy in town will enlist in their army
and fight under their generalship as
long as they are wanted.
The question of the hour with the
newsdealers is to boycott or not to
boycott.

TOO MUCH
MORPHINE
Albert Randall Tries to Take
His Own Life.

On Verge Of Delerium Tremens Young
Man Swallows IS Grains
of Poison.
OVERDOSE SAVED HIM

Because he had spent his money like
a prodigal and was on the verge of de-
lerium tremens. Albett Randall. a young
miner made a rash attempt to put an end
to his existence at the Silver Lake hotel
on East Quartz street at an early hour
this morning. He swallowed twenty-five
grains of morphine and his anxiety to d.
was his salvation. The extraordinarily
large dose of the drug was too much for
a stomach weakened by several weeks Of
excuses. He vented it up, and the cai>is
was passed before the arrival of the ply
s:cian.
Young RandalIs nome is in Dillon. He
has been in Butte about a year and until
a few months ago. was employed at the
mine. About three weeks ago
he became Respondent because of lack Of
employment and began to drink. Since
that time he has been almost continual
~ under the influence Of liquor. During
the past two or three days he has ben
on the verge of deleriuan tremens. About
4 o'clock this morning a young man who
occupied the room in common with RAN
dali, was awakened by him. Randall
was raging and acting like lunatic. The

condition to the night clerk. The clerk
sent for DIR. H. NJ. Hall. Before the ar

Hall he had swallowed twenty-five
grains Of morphine, and thai h wished
to die. The doctor administered an e.ne-
tic, and when he left, Randall was much
easier. His condition is very much i'm
proved today and he will probably re-
cover, but Is not entirely out of danger.
TO the employees of the hotel Randall
denies that ne attempted to ommit sui

the hope that it would tone up his system
so 'hat he would be able to go to work

BROWNS NOT GUILTY,
JURY ACQUITS MISMATED CO1-pr,E
OF CHARGE OF THEFT.

Justice Nichols and a jury of six men
neafd the testimony today in the case
OF the state against Z. ]. Brown and his
VIE, charged with having taken from q
mouse in which they We're living a num-
Der of household articles. The trial vas
an ordinary one and the charge equally
as common in Butte. but the whole r,o-
ceeding was rather interesting because
Brown is a colored darkey and his
wife a white woman of more than aver
age good looks. Judging by her appear
ance not one drop of African blood
courses through her veins. She has been
in Butte only about a month and a half.
and has ben working as a domestic at
the Hotel de Grace McGinnis. In giving
her testimony she was required TO tell
where she worked, and stated in connec-
ton with it that this fact did no. add
to her discledit. She answered all uues-
lions in a remarkably intelligent man
ner, occasionally referring to NJ Brown
as her husband Brown is not by any
means slow. He dresses well. parts his
hair about five degrees from the center
of a fairly well-shaped head. and has Il
smooth face. in which is set a pair of
keen, dark eyes. During the trial he sat
at the rear of the room and kept one ear
trained on the proceedings. especially
the portion allotted the plaintiff for the
introduction of its proof. The Browns
have no children.
III Complaint dSdlHSt the couple was
made by Mrs. Gertrude Coleman of 5O4
South Montana street. Mrs. Coleman
conducts a rooming house at that num-
Der, and for about three weeks had Mr..
and Mrs. Brown as dodgers. She did not
care to have the Browns in her house,
however. and along about the 18th re-
quested them to seek other quarters,
which they did, going to 314 South Idaho
street on the morning of the 18th, the
day on which their week expired. Some
OF Mrs. Coleman's household goods went
with them. but they claimed that it was
done by mistake. Other articles, they
said. they knew nothing about.
TIN jury deliberated only a few min
utes and returned a verdict of not
guilty.
Constable c. c.. Rhoades, who sum-
noned the jurymen, related an expert
ence he had in connection with the work.
He rounded up several persons and ex-
planned to them the nature of the case,
telling them among other things tina
one of the defendants was a darkey, but
the other was a white woman, and they
were husband and wife.
81 can't serve IN that jury said one,
giving his head a negative shake.

Because I'd hang a niger on sight, I
would. l don't need no evidence"

Suggestions For Their Pro-
lection by State Board.
AN INTERESTING REPORT
"A State Hatchery and Changes in the
Game Law Are Recon-
mended.

The state board of game and fish COM
missioners. NJ. j. Elrod, Perry Kennel
ana r. 4. Wagner have presented to
the governor their renort for the year,
ending Nov. 80. 1t says that in the past
year but ten counties of the state have
appointed wardens, and at the time this
report is made some of the offices have
been vacated. The state board is power
less. Petitions from taxpayers avail but
little and one-half of the wardens APP
pointed receive such poor pay as to make
the office OF no effect"
The report finds that in the ten counties
having wardens something like $500 was
expended. or 500 per county per month,
for services, out Of which the wardens
pay their own expenses. Providing they
serve the whole year the sum of Sc, 900
would thus be expended. The state
board, with this amount, would be able
to keep o IL good wardens in the field
and do more work han has been lone by
all these wardens combined and to the
benefit of the entire state.
The forest rangers OF Montana in SER
vice pon the different forest reserva-
lions are praised. Through the aid of
tupGiilAAciluSI y. d. AoillllS the rangers
hayed done much effe ctive work in the way
of protecting both game and fish. Each
ranger has been appointed a deputy state
warden to serve without pay. Instances
are cited where these rangers have aided
not a little in protecting pane and fish,
in many instances doing far better work
than the county wardens. During the
year $643 was collected by the commits
sion in fines, of which $459. 81 was expend-
ed. The small amount collected in fines
have not been numerous. One-half has
gone to the i%nforlner and generally the
minimum fine has been imposed.

prevent the capture of beaver alive, ex-
cept for park or scientific purposes: that

FORMER

Italy once had a plague that killed TO-
600 persons daily. Five hundred a day
died in Rome. In one year 200, 900 citi-
zens of C~onstantinople died. The epi-
demic of 1347-49 was the worst ever Wis
tied on man in Asia 90, 900. 600 persisted by
it. and in Europe 25, 600, 900. In London
200 persons were buried daily in the Char
terhouse yards. 1t was called BLACK
Death.' The plague in England in 1741
destroyed more people than the contin-
ual wars for the Is preceding years.
"Sweating sickness" prevailing in Eng
land for three years, killed half the pop
ulation of all the capital towns and de-
populated Oxford. 1t is mortal in three
hours. The great plague of London in
1854 carried off 100000 people. A trans
port with soldiers on board, from Sar-
dinia to Naples brought a plague that
destroyed 400, 900. An epidemic started
in Marselles by a ship from the Levan'
killed over $4,000.
