knight only replied with a melancholy
and bewidered stare, which convinced
the novice that entreaty and argumen
upon this subject, as, at present, upon
all others, would be alike unavailing
Signing, therefore, and, with a gesture
directing BaltaSar to assume his station
at the side of Don Gabriel, he took the
page by the hand, and removing to little
distance from the group rs well as from
all other persons, he walked on, entering
into discourse with Jacinto.
"I do not marvel at thee, Jacinto," he
said, "nor can | altogether censure thee,
for grieving thus at the flight of thy
father. Nor will !, as was last night my
resolve, reprimand thee for leaving me,
contrary to my bidding, at the chamber
of my good knight; for, besides finding
thou vert instigated to this disobedence
by anxiety for thy parent, which would
have excused in thee greater fault. But
let me ask thee, not so much as a master

The boy remained silent, and Amador
continued:
Thy father also showed me that it was
thy faithful love in remaining by my
kinSman during Swoon which prevented
thee from escaping with him. This,
though it does not remove the fault of thy
design, entirely forces me to pardon it;
and, indeed. Abdalla did as much as ac

United States Court Has the Special Inn
provement Tax Case.
The case Of the Minnesota & Montana
Land & Improvement company Vs. the
City of Billings, wherein the former is
trying to prevent the collection by the
city and county officials Of the special
improvement tax amounting to ~. 70
for each lot. for the construction Of the
drainage ditch, was finally argued to
the United States district court in Hell
ena Saturday and submitted.
The company claims that the ASSESS
ment was not made according to law,
aud that the Billings city council and
other officials exceeded the authority
given them under the codes. The pc.
titioners want a restraining order to
prevent the city and county officials
from seizing and selling the property to
enforce the collection Of the taxes and
a penalty Of five per cent that has al
ready been added for the failure to pay.
Ex-Associate Justice e. N. Harwood
represented the plaintiffs, while Clay
berg, Cor bett & Gum of Helena acted
for the city of Billings. It is thought
that it will be some time before tho
court will render All opinion.

The Miles City Football Team Scores IS
to Our BOy.' IL.

to Our Boys II.
1.-THE Billings High school football
team again met defeat Saturday after.
noon at the hands Of the lads from the
Miles City High school. the score being
II to 13. It was not done, by superior
playing OF the part ofDtte visitors, for
the homd boys cls6rly proved i'll the
last half lhat tbst outclassed their op.
ponents, put 1d'ere the trouble stood.
The local. Yam waited until the last
half befoiTtbey fairlye entered into the
game, and then the visitors had it won.
Had our boys entered into the game
with the same vim and viRor that char.
acterized their playing in the last half,
the score would have been altogether
different. The tackles Of the home
team were noticeably weak, until they
were roasted. when they braced up and
went into the game with all their
might. but il was then too late.
Miles City made all it's score in the
first half Oh end runs, and Billings
made its scores OH like plays, assisted
By center rfshes. which, were,a marvel.
The buckIng Of Milea~<Tty's center
never faildi to bring26rth the necessary
gain to re4ip tbe6nI. Two or three
fun,bles of tLepball by Billings lost it to
Miles City ~hnd allowed the latter to
make good gains. III the last half, had
there been three minutes left for play,
Billings would have made touch
down, as the ball was with Is yards of
Miles Clty's goal aud the home boys
were playing remarkably fast game,
when time was called.
The game was clean one and was
devoid Of all dangling. There was
but small attendance, owing, no doubt
to the fact that but few people under
stand the game.
The Miles City boys are gentle.
manly set hnd are capable Of playing
good galpe Phys worthy OF mention
were the epd rpns Of Hyde for the visi.
tors. sand RIa<f for the home team; Mil.
burn and Harmon = all.nround playing
and Batenan's line work for the visi-
tors, Daniels and Morse's all.around
playing and Wagner's line work.

FINISH WEIGHING MAIL.

The Local Ottice Furnishes An idea of
Amount of Business.
On last Monday the postoffices
throughout the United States complet.
ed the weighing Of all mails which Ell.
tered their respective offices and which
had been in progress for thirty five
days. The weighing was done on an
order from the department., but just
what the motive was no one seems
able to fathom. No one unacguainted
with the inside Of postoffioe has any
idea Of the amount Of extra work which
the order caused the employees All
matter had to be classified and weighed
separately. Postmaster Babcock has
furnished Tho Gazstte with the follow.
ing report Of amount Of mail matter
which entered and left his Office dur
ing that time:
All mail matter: First class, 775
pounds; second class, postage paid,
1911 pounds second class, free county,
$40 pounds; third and fourth class, 800
pounds; government free matter. s05
pounds; equipment, pouches, sacks |;

Railroad matter, such as left the Office
for railroad transportation First class,
722 pounds; second class, postage paid,
1913 pounds; second class, free county.
245 pounds; third and fourth class,
504 pounds; government free matter,
800 pounds; eqipment, pouches, sacks,
etc., arm pounds; foreign, 30 pounds I;
total, $500 pounds.
Mr.. Babcock stated to The Gazette
reporter that he had taken the oppor-
tunity Of counting the number Of letters
which entered the Office on several dif.
ferent occasions, and that they mum.
bered All average Of over 1900 a day.

SERIOUS CHARGES
Have Been Made Against Indian Trader
9. Il. HabcOck at Crow Agency.

Have Been Made Against Indian Trader
9. Il. Habcock at Grow Agency.
A special dispatch to the Anaconda
Standard from Washington under date
Of Nov. 9 says:
"The commissioner Of Indian affairs
has revoked the license Of Charles I.
Babcock as trader at the Grow Indian
reservation. The action is based upon
charges fled with the Indian Office and
recently investigated by an Indian
agent. It is alleged that Babcock has
been III the habit Of charging the In
dians exorbitant prices for goods pur-
chased by them and using extraordinary
and improper measures to enforce the
collection Of his bills. One specifca.
tion states that he took from the mail
an Indians pension check, forged the
Endorsement, drew the money and
credited 1t to the Indians account.
Babcock's friends have secured q stay
Of proceedings until fuller investigation
can be made. Under the regulations
Babcock will be permitted to not as
trader until his license expires, when 1t
will be revoked. This will give him
al opportunity to explain awny the
charges against him IL he has been
victim Of purely circumstnntial evi
dence."
The above comes as a complete sur.
prise to the people Of Billings, whom it
will be difficult to convince that Mr.
Babcock has been guilty of any ques.
tionable transaction. He has been
trader at the Grow Agency for some
twenty years, we believe. during which
time be has enjoyed the respect and
complete confidence of the people Of
this community. As the dispatch
states, Mr. Babcook will no doubt be
given All opportunity to explain the
charges against him. aud his many
friends in this city feel confident that
some mistake has been made and that
he will be fully vindicated.
