THREE SHOTS AT HIM.
CONSTABLE LAZZERI HAS AN EX-
PERIENCE.

Constable Joe Lazzeri of Meaderville is
not SO slow when it comes to capturing
either real or the other brand of high
wayman. When he sights one of the road
gang he does not find it necessary to stop
to adjust his collar and necktie or grease
his boots so they will enable him to make
better time, but sails right into the work
with nerve and alacrity. LazZerl got
fooled last night, however, but ever this
fact demonstrates that he is all right on
robbers.
Along about 9 O'Clock a woman and
man entered the Combination saloon and
grocery store kept by Bertoglio & Gross
and in frightened tones asked for Lazzeri.
The constable was there n was told by
the callers that while on the way home
had encountered what appeared to
them to be a suspicious character. They
believed his intentions to be of a stand
and deliver nature. Without waiting to
tighten his belt Lazzeri sailed away and
in lesss than a minute was face to face
with the figure of a man.
Throw up your hands!' called the
constable, leveling his gun at the figure.
There was no reply and no movement
that the constable could actually see, but
he thought he detected an attempt to
shoot and opened fire. Three bullets in
rapid succession went at the man, but
still he did not move. That appeared to
be remarkable and he advanced closer,
only to find a dummy that had been plac-
ed near the roadside by some boys with
the intention of frightening someone.

Great Republic Mining Camp,

There is considerable interest being
taken Just now by Butte spectators in
the stocks of the Republic camp, and any
information ~obtainable from that section
is eagerly sought by our readers.
The Hewett-Sisley mining
brokers, this week issued the following
special circular concerning the shares
and properties of hat section:
while the mines of Montana are turn
ing out millions in dividends for their
fortunate owners, the new mining camp
known as the Republic, in the Colville
reservation, in Washington. is grinding
out new mining companies by the un-
dred. Fol the benefit of our clients we
issue today a special circular containing
a few of the more prominent mining COM
panies doing business in this camp.
They are having a genuine stock boom
there, and no one can tell just where it
will end-in fact, the end seems a long
way off. The %youngster is about the
llveliest camp this country has ever
known. Cripple Greek was never in it in
it's palmiest days.
There is sufficient scope there to in
terest even a man that will play the races
with 300 chances against him.
There are a few of these companies
that are gil. edge; others are splendid in
vestments, as they are backed up by
good men. Then there are others that
are purely speculative. The boom is on
IN earnest, and there is, in our opinion,
money to be made by buying man of
these cheap stocks. They are bound to
go up in sympathy with the good ones.

location of every claim in the district

aged 65 years, an old pioneer.
Mr.. Motherell crossed the plains in 1853

engaged in mining and came to Montana
in 1863, first to Virginia City and after
wards located on the South Boulder, near
Pony, in addison county, where he had
a ranch, and has lived their ever since.
He has been sick at the Sisters hospital
