Adverse Decision OF the Coal Company Will
Compeli City Schools to Close.

The committee appointed by the
Red Lodge school board to circulate
a petition for the purpose of raising
funds with which to continue the city
schools for the period Of eight months
has secured pledges from seventy
four Of the heaviest taxpayers tor the
payment of the full amount Of what
thew would have had to contribute to
the county treasurer it the special
school tax had not been declared un-
constitutional The amount required
to be raised is between $1,000 and
Sl7OO, which, added to the balance
on hand, realized from the regular
school tax, will permit the schools to
run till the first Of June, or three
months longer than the funds now III
the districts S treasury will hold out.
| Ii should be understood, however,
that the aggregate amount pledged
hy the seventv-lour taxpayers falls
about $500 short OF the total sum re-
uuired to Dc raised by voluntary sub
scription, and unless the Rocky Fork
Coal company contributes its share
of the special four-mill special tan
amounting to nearly one-lonrth on
! the whole amount, TINS method Ol
raising money will he abandoned, and
in this event, il is very likely that thu
schools will close the first OF March

HARD TO GIT HIM

the Friends Of the Man He
Killed.
A SHOWER OF BULLETS
One Passed Through His Arm and Others
Perforated His Clothes A
Narrow Escape.

Last Tuesday, at high noon, Sim
B. Roberts of Reed Point had a mar
row escape from assassination at the
hands of three men, one Of whom is
supposed to be the brother of the|
man whom Roberts shot and killed
on the streets Of Big Timber last
August. At the TIME Roberts was
acquitted of murder, threats We're
freely made against his l1fe by the
brother and friends of the dead man,
Nate Young, and it is pretty certaln
that the unsuccessful attempt just
made to put Roberts under the 500
was the elimination Of these threats.
The news Of the attempted assassl-
nation was received in this city We'd
nesday afternoon, when Attorney
Sydney Fox was handed a telegraphlc
message summoning him to Big linn
Der to aid Roberts in bringing the
guilty parties tc book. The follow
ing particulars Of the affair are taken
from Big Timber special TO the
Butte Miner. Under date OF Jan. y
the dispatch says:
"Just after noon today at Reed
Point school house, thirty miles east
OF this place, Sim B. Roberts Wa
waylaid and seriously shot by The
friends Of Young.
"Roberts. who lives about a miI'
east Of the scene OF the shooting, wa

town assembled and, as an offering to
God, agreed to produce a play por-
traying the life Of Christ once every
ten years, and, strange to say, the day
following the first production, the
plague ceased and has never repeated
itself. True to their vow, each sue
ceeding generation has taken UP th'
task and given the play
