of Angora goats to his livestock possess

have hitherto been neglected in the gen.
eral rush to engage In the sheep BUSH
ness, m 1t il to be hoped Mr.. Deaton's
example will result in introducing a new
and profitable industry to Montana.
Though each animal produces but a
quantity of mohair, 1t brings 35@
4Oc per pound, and is largely grown in
California and Texas. A band of goats
was run near Livingston in the sos. but
the enterprise has since been abandoned.

of unusual and remarkable prosperity,

That Is What Marshal of Silver Lake
Wants From Bell1gerent.

Thomas c. O'Donnell is marshal of
Silver Lake. He is also the plaintiff in
a damage suit in the district court, and
there is a connection between the two.
One day last December Harvey Her
Iington was creating something of a
disturbance on the streets of Silver
Lake; at least the marshal thought so,
and O'Donnell told him to stop. The
result was that O'Donnell was pretty
badly used up through contact with
Harrington fists. Later the trouble
was renewed in a barber shop, and the
next day it was carried still further.
Harrington was arrested and fined
but he is not through with the trouble
O'Donnell has filed a suit in the dis
trict court against him asking for So, 500
damages for the injuries he sustained
In his petition he says that he himself
is an old man, weighs only 125 pounds,
ana IS crippled from injuries received
during the war; that Harrington is a
strong, powerful young man, Weighing
about 1856. He recites the story of how
Harrington beat him up, and asks for
$1,000 damages for the first beating, $500
for the beating in the barber shop, and
81, 600 for that on the following day.
The last one sent him to bed and he
was obliged to call a doctor and a
nurse.

FIrz CAPTURES A BEAR.
Noted Pugilist Knocks Out the Beast
and Takes Him to Hotel.

New York Feb. 19.-Bob Fitzsim-
mons has captured one of the pet bears
which escaped from the recent Timer
park fire. Fitzsimmons was walking
along the Coney Island boulevard with
his friend Val Schmitt when he espied
the shaggy creature in the branches of
a locust tree along the path.
Whats that, Val?" he eclaimed.
Looks like a bunch of Turkish rugs, )"
responded his friend.
Just then bruin unrolled his paws and
stuck out his tongue at F'itz
Right there remarked Bob in re-
lating the incident, Il decided he would
make a good pet for the kids il could
capture him alive, so 1 Skinned up the
tree and got located a few feet under
him. Then I stood up and tented at
him. He ducked and swiped back. I
led again, Tented with a sh0rt-arm left
and COPIED him good, hard jolt on the
jaw.
He tumbled out of the crotch and
then grabbed on again. I had him
groggy, so 1 smashed him another in
the ear. Well, you should have seen
him take a fall on the gravel. We
bound him securely and carried him
over to the Manhattan hotel on the
boulevard, where he is now. What 1
want to know is whether or not he is
mine I captured the brute in the wilds
of Long Island and l can't see where
anybody else comes in. How about it %

WASHINGTON TO STAY IN.
Capital City May Not Be Dropped by
the National League.

Baltimore Feb. 19.-The following state
ment made by Frank De Haas Robson,
president of the Cleveland-St. Louis club
in the presence of Hanlon and Won der
Horst seems to dispose of the report that
by the reduction of the National League
be left out:
THE National League has not aBan-
doned the territory of Washington nor
win it do so. Mr.. Wagner is reported as
selling his players He has this right, and
should all of them be disposed of the
National League would place another
team there It would be in charge of
to be relieved of his franchise
1.-The circuit committee has not been
authorized to offer Mr.. Wagner any price
for his franchise. Another reason why the
National League would not abandon
Washington is furnished by the report
that the new association is seeking to
locate there.
LAS for Baltimore, there is no necessity
for my saying anyth1r Mr.. Won der
league, just as I have. Their stand 1s
well known to readers of the news and
speaks for ITSELF
It can be state authoritatively that no
price has been asked for the Baltimore
franchise. The league appointed the cir
cult committee to find out on what terms
certain cities could be induced to with
draw from the circuit. All efforts to car
~ instructions into effect with regard to
Baltimore have, met with but one reply
mot for sale"
1t is not question now as to whether
the league will give the Baltimore own
ers an exOrbitant price. The league sim>
ply is pOwerless to remove Baltimore,
even should the desire to do so be strong.

Swedish Lutheran Church Will Have
on Thursday Evening.

There will be a fire at the Swedish
Lutheran church Thursday evening, will
fully and maliciously planned by the
trustees of the church. The fire will be

of the church so the audience will be
able to see the flames consume the
mortgage which the church has paid
off
The fire will be followed by a fes-
tival of thanksgiving and social cele-
bration. All persons who subscribed to
the fund by which the mortgage was
paid off have been invited to be pres
ent and rejoice with the church in the
victory which has been won"
