CATTLE RUSTLERS
ARE BEING TRIED

Butte, Mont, Dec. IA special to the
Miner from Helena says a jury was Sc
cured in the case of the government VS..
Samuel Garvin and William E. Lee, who
are charged with running off 400 head
of cattle owned by the Crow Indians.
Judge Knowles court room was crowded
with witnesses when the taking of testi-
mony began. The case will probably con-
sumo ten days.
The defendants are well to do citizens of
Yellowstone. Garvin conducted a log
range known as Garvins Basin, en-
trance to which could be had only
through a narrow canyon, which he
closed with chains. 1t Is alleged that
Garvin and Lee drove Indian cattle to
this basin, changed their brands, and
then shipped them TO the eastern markets.
When they were arrested it was claimed
that they had stolen nearly 1,009 head of
cattle. but the number has since been re
duced.

VIII Always Show Itself-Hazing
Under Another Name.

NEW lOTk IiIneS.l
The old West Pointer said to the
lady who sat beside him at the recent
football game between Princeton and
the soldiers. You viii observe how
strong are the habits incUlcated by a
military training"
The game was just about to begin.
Each eleven was drawn up on its own
side of the field awaiting the sound OF
the referees whistle. The pigskin was
placed on the line that divided the
gTidirOn into halves in place for the
kickoff. A silence fell upon the spec
tatOrs as the referee raised his hand
and shouted,
Are you ready. Princeton?"
II reply from the Princeton captain
came something that sounded very
much like:
yep"
Are you ready West POint?"
I've are ready, sir returned the
West Point captain, politely.
It told you so" said the old West
Pointer, smiling grimly. THE train
ing of which this little incident is but
a faint index begins in the days of the
much-pitied plebe. The system has
been elaborated since my day Last
summer went up to Peekskill, where
morning I was wandering through a
company street when an upper class
man STUCK mis- head out of a tent and
inquired in a stentOTian voice:
Who is the woodenest plebe in this
company The next moment every
plebe in the street stuck his head out
between the tent flaps and responded,
gTaVely:
I am, sir
"They don't dare to order the plebes
to black their boots any more since
the congressional investigation, but
they. accomplish the same result quite
as effectually. The upper cSssmen
viii deposit a pair Of sOiled boots in
front of a plebe, look him over with a
fierce glance and inquire
Do you see those boOts, sir?' and
the plebe win answer:
Yes. sir
" Very well. sir. says 3 the upper
clessman. with great sire on the first
word. and, with anOthpE threatening
glare. he departs. The koots are al
WAYS cleaned. too"

FATE OF LINCOLN FARM.
It is to be Made a Home For Chicago

The birthplace of Abraham Lincoln
to be a home for inebriates!
A recent visitor to Hodgenville, KY,
and to the historic farm was DR.. r. c.
Miller of Chicago, president of the St
Luke society. The object of the visit
was the prospective purchase Of the
farm for the erection thereon Of a
sanitarium for the treatment Of vic
tins of the whisky, cocaine, morphine
and cigarette habits
Lincoln farm is the property of David
Grear. a New York millionaire. 1t was
purchased by him from Mr.. bennett
of restaurant fame. When Mr.. Den
nett. about seven years ago, rescued
and restored the partly destroyed log
cabin, it was his intention TO convert
the place into a historic park. But
nothing has yet been done, and the
place remains in nearly its original
condition.
That the father Of Abraham Lincoln
was a poor man is proved by the char
acfer OF the land. 1t is mostly Of red
clay; but few of it's acres are mt for
cultivation. 1t lies about a mile or so
from Hodgenville. On the hilltop a
cabin was constructed Of logs. It is Of
one room, though there may at one
time have been a division.
Here it was that Abraham Lincoln
was born. Here he spent his boyhood
days.
The only valuable feature of the
farm is the spring, followed out Of
the rock on the hillside, a few hundred
yards from the house. The water is
clear and cold. 1t was Abraham Lin
coins chief duty as a lad to carry
water up the hill from this spring,
for the farming to be done did not. re-
quire more than the fathers labor, and
as the youth developed strength he was
put to chopping down the trees and
splitting rails. Before he had left it
nearly all the oak trees on the farm
had been cut and today it remains
practically a barren waste.
