the cases continued until the April term.
The court took this action at the in
stance of District Attorney Dodgers, who
filed a formal application for a continu-
ance and affidavits stating that IA witness
by the name of i. j. Bacon, one of the
chief witnesses for the government, could
not be ound. He also informed the court
that because of the ruling that William
Wallace could not appear as special pros
ecutor he would like time to prepare him
self FOR the case. He said it had been
known all along that Wallace would ap-
pear in the case on the side of the prose-
cutiOn but at the last minute the defense
had raised an objection resulting in his
withdrawal. Acting in the belief that
Wallace would be in the case the district
attorney said he had not given the case
the attention it demanded, but had re,ied

Keeping Pace With the City'S
Growth,
THE KINDS CONTRACT
Finished This AfternOOn-SOlne Fig
ureS on Street Improve
ment.

The street paving contract, awarded
to Thomas Kinds & Co. last spring, was
finished about 4:3O O'Clock this afternoon.
The area covered by Mr.. Kinds con
tracts totals 1O,467 square yards, and
would have been half as much more but
for the fact that it was decided to defer
paving West Park street, between
Academy and Montana streets, on ac-
count of the inability of he street car
company to purchase iron for the street
railway tracks. The rail is necessarily
heavy and of a special make, and on ac-
count of the tremendous business done
by the manufactures of the east, the
order of the street car company was not
filled. In consequence, this portion OF
the work, if lone at all, will be finished
next spring, although it's abandonment
is not improbable.
Mr.. Kinds informed an Inter Mountain
reporter this afternoon that he would
have completed his work some time ago
but for unavoidable delays caused by a
suspension of operations in order to leave
the streets in condition for the soldiers
parade on the occasion of the return of
the volunteers from Manila, and the bad
weather of October, which was a serious
handicap.
Mr.. Kinds contract, on the oasis OF
1919 per square yard, will cost the city
approximately $3S, 413. SO. In addition to
this the street railway has
paved about 900 square yards of the
streets between it's rails. which will
bring the years total of paved area up to
about II, 1867 square yards.
Including Mr.. Kinds contract just
completed. the city has not quite 100000
square yards of paved area. The exact
figure is 1867 yards. OF this about 1O,-
900 yards were paved in 1897 at a cost
of $50, 600. and II, 300 yards paved last
year. costing the city 500, 7O7. and the
total expenditure for street paving, up
to date, is 1892. 100. SO.
Next years street improvements will
probably include districts on Arizona
and East Par streets. South Main to
Maryland venue, and Wyoming to
Quartz streets.

THE OFFICER FOOLED HER.
HOW MRS. WILLIE KIGHER DEFIED
ARREST.

Mrs. Willie J.. Higher, who has been in
Jail so much of late that she can call the
pet c~ockroaches by name, was arrested
again this afternoon on a charge of
disturbing the peace. A few days ago
Mrs. Higher rented a room from a Mrs.
Smith, residing at No. 400 South Mon
tana, and since the time Mrs. Higher
became a member of her household Mrs.
Smiths days have been full of trouble.
Mrs. Higher came home intoxicated this
morning and proceeded to raise Cain,
When Mrs. Smith had stood it as long as
she could she called in a policeman. Mrs.
Higher defied the officer to take her to
Jail, went to her ROOM, and when he fol-
! lowed her a few minutes later she had
disrobed and was in bed. The officer,
however, happened to be equal to the
emergency. Calling a hack he wrapped
the obstinate woman in the bed clothing,
and in this condition took her to the city
bastile. where she performed. her toilet
at her leisure.

itself and he started up town. H. A.

got away but Green summoned another
guard and captured the fugitive in a rail-

The NEWS IN BRIEF

Albert Fisher has brought suit for
$40, 900 against the j. c. Adams Stage
COMPANY, which operates a stage line
between Augusta and Craig on the Mon
tana Central. Fisher alleges that he
| was thrown from the stare last August
and sustained severe injuries.
The Ophir mine, an extension of the
famous Gloster Mine at Gloster. was sold
yesterday at Helena to John Larson of
Marysville for So. 800. The owners of the
! mine once refused $50, 900 for it, because
they were unable to agree, and the sale
yesterday was the result.
George Thompson, a rancher of the
| Gallatin valley, has disappeared and his
friends are greatly alarmed. He visited
| Bozeman on Monday and left that even
ing for his home. The next morning his
team was found standing at the ranch
| gate. In the wagon was a fur coat, cut
in several places with some sharp in
| strument.

terday at White Sulphur Springs, aged
so years. In the early days he had been
engaged in mining at Diamond City,
and subsequently in the stock raising
business.
BY a recent decision Of General Land
Commissioner Hermann the reservation
from the public domain of II townships
northwest of Missoula has been revoked
on petition of the Northern Pacific. Last
July the state made a request for a sur
vey Of these lands. but the railroad had
made an application In the preceding
April, and the railroad claimed to have
a prior right to the land under the act
of passed last March. This act
permits the company to select lands on
both odd and ven sections in lieu of
lands on it's grant filed OF by settlers be-
fore the grants went into effect. The
railroad claimed the same rights as set
tiers and the commissioners, recognizing
that right, rejected the application of
the state for a survey. holding that the
railroad had the prior right. The mat
ter has been referred to he attorney
general. and in all probability an appeal
will be taken. Should the commissions
be sustained in his ruling the state WI
be deprived of many thousands of acres
of valuable timber lands which would
have been selected to the credit of the

held BY settlers

eisn TO our system of Jurisprudence and
a reiic of the dark ages, when private
parties could avail themselves of the
courts to give vent to their personal ami
mostly. he severely condemned the
proposition and said that Mr.. Wallace's
admission that he had received a private
fee in the case was sufficient reason why
he should not be allowed to appear as
special prosecutor. The courts and
government were for public benefit and
not for the benefit of private individuals.
Judge KNOWLES did not mince words at
all and his remarks were closely listened
to by a large number of spectators.
This incident about Wallace appearing
in the case has started more or less COM
ment. There is considerable inquiry as
to who he represented, since the govern
ment did not engage him according to
advices received from Washington. 1t
is said that certain st. Louis parties. who
lost considerable money in the bank,
were back of the plan. Some doubt is
expressed here about the case against
