DisTuRBERs IN COURT.
Two Drunks Face Judge Mann-Fine
Of 10,

From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
Yesterday was a busy day in the
police court, there being a grist of
DRINKS and vags, whom the police
had "nabbed" the night before. Ed.
Otis and VIM. Bartholomew were
found disturbing the peace and quiet
ude Of the city, botn being drunk and
~disorderly. Otis was not arrested
until after the police had warned him
to get off the street and behave him
self, but it iseems that the admoni-
ton only served OF make the man
0 boisterous and ugly and he was
run in. He tried to smooth affairs
ove with his honor, but the story
didn't go, and he was fined $40. AS
luck would have it the police had
found that sum on Otis when he was
arrested and the fine was paid, under
protest from Otis, who wanted the
money OF pay some other oebts.
Bartholomew was another man
whose head became turned by what
he termed only a few drinks, which
he had taken because they were
treats and he thought they would
make him feel better. He claimed to
have been working on various ranch
es of this section, n expected to go
out onto the Grow reservation this
morning to work on the ditch, and
would leave for there Immediately if
allowed to go The court thought it
would be a good radiance and so al
lowed him to 60.

FEDERAL SHEEP INSPECTION.

Government Sends a Veterinarian to
Billings.
From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
That the United States government
feels interested in the sheep industry
is evidenced by the fact that it is
sending out inspectors to the states
west of the Mississippi river to assist
in ferreting out scab and keeping the
disease from spreading.
There arrived in Billings yesterday
from Salt Lake City C.. M. Mcfarland,
a veterinarian, who is one of the IS
veterinarians sent out by the depart
ment of agriculture, bureau of ami
NAL industry, to inspect all sheep that
go into Interstate trade. He will
have his headquarters in this city
looking after the inspection on the
Burlington and Northern Pacific rail
roads. His territory extends east to
Miles City and south to Edge
mont, ,. D.
MI. Mcfarland says that the fed
eral government is cooperating with
the state government in this inspec-
ton. Another inspector is stationed
at Great Falls, DR.. Illiston, who has
charge of the territory in this state
covered by the Great Northern.
DR.. Mcfarland says that whenever
a shipment of sheep is to be made
from any railroad point the station
agent must notify the inspector, when
the inspector goes to that point and
inspects the sheep. If they are found
free from disease a clean bill Of health
is issued. Otherwise they are turned
back into quarantine and must stay
there until they have been dipped.
He thinks that the government in
spection will be the means of causing
the sheepmen to take more caution in
seeing that their sheep are free from
disease, and believes that it will prove
a great benefit to them.

Faro and Other Gambling Games
Only a Memory.

AFRO ana Other Gambling Games
Only a Memory.
From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
In accordance with supplementary
instructions received from the attor.
ney general, County Attorney Hath,
horn instructed Sheriff Hubbard yes.
terday to enforce the anti-gambling
law. The sheriff accordingly notified
all parties interested and gave as
surance that he would, as far as lay
in his power, see that the law was e
forced to The letter. However,. he in
formed the county attorney that he
could not be expected to keep his dep
uties up all night in order to ferret
out violations of the law. If he was
expected to have a deputy on duty
at night he would have to be allowed
one more man than at present.
In explanation of his part in the
matter, Mr.. Hathhorn informed The
Gazette that he was only carrying
out the orders Of the attorney gen
eral; that while he had always been
prepared to prosecute any violation of
the laws, he did not deem it to be his
duty to act the part of detective to
hunt up perpetrators of unlawful acts.
The law, however, would be strictly
enforced from now on, as those were
his instructions to the county peace
authorities.
This is the matter as it concerns
the county officers. In regard to the
city's interest in the question, Mayor
George informs The Gazette that last
TUESDAY he instructed the chief Of
police 70 obtain a list of all persons
violating the gambling law and lay
complaints against them under the
city ordinance. He furthermore said
that it had been his intention to have
an ordinance prepared in conformity
with the state laws, not then know
ing that the existing ordinance fully
covered the subject. In addition Mr..
George said that he purposes to have
the ordinance enforced regardless of
what the county authorities may do in
the premises hereafter.
Now, as to the gamblers them
selves: AS soon as they were notified
of the changed conditions they in
stantly manifested their desire and
unqualified intention of abiding by the
law. They say it is not their inten-
ton or wish to do anything repug-
nant to the law or contrary to the
wishes of the people Of the commune
ty, and if it is the mandate that
gambling must go, they will yield ODE
dience and cease backing with coin
of the realm their ability to guess
the order in which a couple of cards
may make their egress from the lit
tie box in front of the quiet gentle
man wearing a big diamond, or risk
ing small fortunes on the relative
value Of hands dealt them in the Sc
ductive game of draw.

IT .s claimed that Yale College

1T rs claimed that Yale College
intended to bestow an honorary
dgree upon Prof. Booker I. Wash
ington, but changed its plan be-
cause of the attitude OF the South
in regard to the act of President
Roosevelt in inviting Washington
to dine at the White House. If
this be true, it shows total lack
of ability on the part of the Yale
authorities to comprehend the
Southern sentiment on the subject,
to say nothing of their lack of cour-
age to. stand by their convictions.
True, there are some Southern,w white
men who might be narrow enough
to object even to such an honor
being bestowed upon colored man
Gs that which was contemplated by
Yale, but 1t is also true beyond
doubt that the great majority of
thinking Southrons would have
considered it only just recogni-
ton of merit. Booker Washington
has received full honor throughout
the South as man of the highest
ability, an educated, refined negro,
who stands as leader of his race.
1t has been suggested by the Gal
weston Tribune that some Southern
college or.university should bestow
upon him The honor which Yale
has backed courage to give, in or
der to prove that the South does
recognize the real merit of Prof.
WGsningtou's achievements. The
suggestion is good one and should
be carried out.
