with blooming plants trailing green
vines. exotics, while a number OF sing

the general beauty of the scene. A
cooling apparatus has been placed in
the house and changes have been made

comfortably cool.
Last evening, the Rober company ap-
peared i'm Sardou's Madame Sans
Gene" a play that has become very
familiar i'm the last few years and
which can never fail TO please. and In
the role of Catherine Hubsher the work
of Miss Rober was seem TO great ad-
vantage. Perhaps, her best efforts were
manifested in the scene with the cos
tuner and the dancing master. and
also in her meeting with the ladies OF
the court Of Napoleon. 1t was a sur
prise TO many Providence theatre-goers
who had only seen Miss Rober i'm COM
edy roles To witness the ability with
which she handled the most serious
phases of the play.

MCCONNELL LIED.
Told so Plainly by Judge
SwestIand and Then Fined
$40 for Assault.

Michael Mcconnell was fined $50 and
costs for making an assault upon a
neighbor, and incidentally Judge
Sweetland said that Mcconnell was a
prevaricator. Mcconnell, when tried a
week ago today. denied that he had
been convicted of an assault in the
sixth district court. Judge Sweetland
thought different and continued the
case to look up the records. The court
found that Mcconnell had not only
been fined $40 and costs for assault. but
that he had been bound over on two
other assault cases-once from this
city and once from Pawtucket. Michael
the court said, had bad. n very bad
memory. And Michael thanked the
court and settled.

Plunged a Great Northern Engine Kill
ing One, lnjuring Two.

my OuVs utJNtIIS w.
A light engine running as second No.
on the Great Northern, which left
Spokane Saturday morning, was
wrecked at 2:3O o'clock p. M, the
same day, few miles east of New
port. There were at first reports
that three lives had been lost, but
later advices put the number at one,
with two injured.
The engine was the first of five,
which were being sent east for SER
vice on the Kalispell division and was
following closely after the east bound
passenger train
A short distance east of Newport
there is sharp curve and an exceed
ingly heavy fill, with the Pend d Oreil-
lie river so feet below at this point,
the engine jumped the track, which it
followed about one hundred feet, when
it took plunge toward the river and
down the embankment. The engine
and tender broke apart and now lie
near the river at least Is feet from
each other.
The engine was in charge of En-
gineer G. G. Carter and Fireman
James Lynch, who were being piloted
over the run by Conductor Charles
Burlington and it is a mystery how
any of them escaped instant death, as
every indication points to the fact
that they must have been travelling at
a high rate of speed when the engine
jumped the track. Engineer Carter
was crushed beneath the engine and
frightfully scalded by steam and wa
ter, his skull was fractured and his
body badly crushed. He was taken to
the Sacred Heart hospital in Spokane,
where he died early Sunday morning.
Fireman James Lynch, was badly
CINE and was found unconscious un.
der the cab, his condition is con
sidered serious, although he is report
ed as resting easy in the hospital at
Spokane. Conductor Burlington, who
was on the cab Of 72S was the most
fortunate of the three, escaping with
few bruises and general shaking
up. The engine left the track with
out moments warning, the tender
jumping first and pulling the engine
after it.
/
Conductor Burlington is resident Of
this city, and the other two are wei
known here having run out of Kalis
pell at different times.

State Game and Fish Commission Is
Hampered.
Last week Sidney M. Logan, notified
Morton J. Elrod, one of Montana's
game wardens, that Indians from the
Flathead reservation were killing deer
on Wolf creek, in direct violation OF
the state game laws and that unless
something was done at an early date
trouble could be expected as the set
tiers were greatly enraged.
Mr.. Logan, yesterday, received re-
ply from Game Warden Elrod which is
in part as follows: I'VE expect to
to have meeting of the state board
of game and fish commission next
Monday yesterday when the matter
will be brought up for discussion, and
will be presented to the governor.
am fully persuaded something must be
done with the Indians, but what to do
is the question in our present condi
ton. With nothing in the treasury
and the state warden living from his
own funds, we cannot expect him to
take expensive trips. 1t is sad con
dition, and we must work hard tt
remedy it at the meeting of the stats
legislature. Meanwhile l would ad
wise securing any information possible
and the filing of a protest with the
secretary of the interior, asking To-
the removal of these Indians"
