AROUND THE TOWN,


This was not very fine day for
> the Scandinavian picnic.
Col. D. Hunt is temporarily manag.
ing the Kalispell hotel.
Mrs. Chas. 'rherriault has gone on
visit to Mrs. Geo. Ouilette, in the
lower valley and expects to remain a
week or more.
The man who thought it no harm
to ride bike on the sidewalks with
in the limits, paid his fine to Judge
Macarthur this morning.
The police are laying for a man
who jumped quarantine some time in
the latter part of March, and they
probably arrested him today.
q. r. Griffith, city treasurer, clerk
of school district and general promo
ter, has been on the sick list for sew
eral days and is confined to his home.
The gusty wind which prevailed
yesterday evening tumbled few signs
and bulletin boards and sent the dust
chasing to the suburbs to find new
home.
Al Ingraham, the Columbia Falls
rancher, and trustee of the soldiers
home, was here today interviewing
the county commissioners on road
business.
The plans for J. w. Meningitis
new building have been completed
and approved, and work will probab-
ly begin at once on the foundation
for the new structure.
A diphtheria yarn was Industrious
ly winging it's flight about the city
yesterday evening, but the board of
health had no information concerning
the alleged quarantine or other con.
ditions.
Lieut.. w. H. Poorman, the former
Livingston lawyer and officer of
Montana volunteers, returned to Kali
ispell last night with the intention of
locating here permanently in the prac-
tice of law.
H. L. Braun, taxidermist of Mis-
soula disappeared several days ago
and no one knows why or whittier.
His business accounts are all straight
and he may have fallen into the river
and drowned.
Peter Lagoni, who has been a mar
tyr to rheumatism, expects to leave
in few days for Hunters Hot
Springs, in eastern Montana, where
he may remain a month or two or un-
til his health shall have been restored.
Notwithstanding the rather dis
agreeable weather, the Scandinavian
residents of the city are out at Still
water bridge today enjoying their
memorial pic mic. There was re-
freshment stand at the grounds and
all kinds of enlivening liquids were
dispensed.
Major Monteath has made a clean
up of all the disreputable half breeds
and white coffee coolers, who have
been camped about Blackfeet reserva-
ton headquarters for the past win
ter, and shipped them over the reser-
walton line. Some have come to
Kalispell, some have gone to Great
Falls, but the police will have an eye
on them wherever they be.
C.. A. Whipple, the recently ap-
pointed clerk to the state board of
land commissioners. is in Kalispell to-
day and will probably remain for
few days, familiarizing himself with
the surroundings. It seems to be rec
ognized that Flathead county is to be
the battle-ground for the land ques-
ton, as the first big fight has been
pulled off here. Mr.. Whipple will Wis
it the outlying country as we'll as the
Fisher mining district, while here on
this outing. The state board has its
meeting for the final disposition of
the F1athead cases a week from next
Monday.

resource was, then, to hasten over the
southern plain.
But then the general discharge OF
guns was heard terribly near the tele-
graph station, and hailstorm of bull
lets crashed through the window. Har-
ry Blount, struck on the shoulder, fell.
Alcide Jolivet was at that moment
about to transmit this supplement to
his dispatch: s
Harry Biount, reporter Of The Daily Telegraph,
falls at my side, struck with piece Of bombshell
But the operator told him with Inn
perturbable GOODNESS: ~
sSir, the wire is broken"
And, leaving his window. he quietly
took his hat, which he brushed with
his sleeve, and, always smiling, went
out through small door which Mi
chael Strogoff had not before noticed.
The station was then invaded by
Tartars, and neither Michael Strogoff
nor the journalists were able to effect
their retreat.
Alcide Jolivet, with his useless dis
patch in hand, ran to Harry Blount,
stretched on the floor. and, kind hearted
as he was, took him on his shoulders
with the intention to fee with him. 1t
swas too late! ....-.
Both were prisoners, and with them
Michael Strogoff, taken by surprise
when he was about to jump through
the window into the hands Of the Tar
tars.

city and a full description of Michael
sent to all the various commandments, In
order to prevent his departure from
Omsk. But he had already passed
through one of the breaches in the for
tifications. His horse was galloping
over the steppe. and, not having been
Immediately pursued, the chances OF
escape were in his favor.
1t was on the 18th of July, at s o'clock
in the evening, that Michael Strogof
had left Omsk. This town is situated
about half way between Moscow and
Irkutsk, where it was necessary that
he should arrive within ten days If he
wished to get ahead Of the Tartar col
umns. 1t was evident that the I'M
lucky chance which had brought him
into the presence Of his mother had be
trayed his incognito. Ivan Ogaref was
no longer ignorant Of the fact that q
courier Of the car had just passed
Omsk, taking the direction Of Irkutsk.
The dispatches which this courier bore
must have been of immense impor-
lance. Michael strogon knew. there
fore, that every effort would be made
to capture him.
But what he did not know and could
not know was that Maria Strogof was
in the hands Of Ivan Ogareff and that
she was about to atone. perhaps with
her life, for that natural exhibition of
her feelings which she had been unable
to restrain when she suddenly found
herself In the presence Of her son. And
It. was fortunate that be was ignorant
Of 1t. Could he have withstood this
fresh trial?
Michael Strogoff urged on his horse,
imbuing him with all his own feverish
impatience; requiring Of him one thing
only-namely, to bear him rapidly to
the next posting house. where he could
be exchanged Tor . quicker conveyance.

ropators. .My eyes have deceived me!
This young man is not my child He
had not his voice Let us think no
more of it. If we do. shall end by
finding him everywhere"
Less than ten minutes afterward a
Tartar officer appeared in the posting
house.
"Marfa Strogoff?" he asked.
"It is l." replied the old woman in a
tone SO calm and with face so tran
uuil that those who had witnessed the
meeting with her son would not have
known her.
"Come." said the officer. Maria Stro-
goff, with firm step. followed the Tar
tar officer and left the posting house.
Some moments afterward Maria Stro-
goff found herself in the chief square
and in the presence of Ivan Ogareff. to
whom all the details of this scene had
lheen Immediately reported.
Ivan Ogareff. suspecting the truth. in
terrogated the old Siberian woman.
"Thy nameY he asked in rough
voice.
MARIA Strogof."

"He is courier of the CARP
Eyes"
where is he?"
"At Moscow"
"Thou hast heard no news Of himY'
"No news"
"Since how longY '.9 &
"Since two months"
"Who, then, was that young man
whom thou sdidst call thy son a few
moments agotat the posting house?"
"a young Siberian, whom / took for
him. replied Maria Strogoff. This is
recognized my son since the town has
been so full Of strangers. I think see
him, everywhere"
$50 this young man was not Michael
StrogoffY'
''It was not Michael Strogoff."
l
can torture thee until thou avowest the
truthY'
II have spoken the truth, and torture
will not cause me to alter my words in
any way"
"This Siberian was not Michael Stro-
goff?" asked second time Ivan Oga-
ref. 4
"No, it was not he," replied second
time Maria Strogof. "Do you think
that for anything in the world would
deny a son whom God has given me?"
Ivan Ogareff regarded with an evil
eye the old woman who had braved
him to the face. He did not doubt but
that she had recognized her son in this
young Siberian. Now, if this son had
first renowned his mother and If his
mother renounced him in her turn it
could occur only from the most weighty
motive.
Every circumstance went to confirm
his suspicious. If he could but lay his
hand upon this pretended merchant Of
Irkutsk and strip off his disguise, would
he not find a treasure indeed? Would
not his superiors well reward his adroit-
ness and his success? Would not the
car of Russia scowl with rage when
he learned that his courier was in the
hands of his foes?
Ivan Ogareff had therefore no doubt
that the pretended Nicholas Korpanof
was Michael Strogof, courier Of the
czar, seeking concealment under false
name and charged with some mission
which it would have been important
for him to know. He therefore at once
gave orders for his pursuit. Then he
said: q,
'Let this woman be conducted to
Tomsk," returning toward Maria Stro-
goff. -, 5sa
And while the soldiers brutally drag
ged her along he added between his
teeth:
when the moment arrives, shall
know how to make her speak, this old
sorceressr'

Michael ,Strogoff was going to answer

dispatch to send; that he wanted only
a little bread and water, when sudden
~ the door Of the house was abruptly

Michael Strogof thought the Office In

room and that they were far from be-

Jockey Mays efforts on Sue johnson and

vision OF Judge Brady. The boy performs
SO badly at Qmes yet manages to win q
good race SO Unexpectedly, even when ride
ing in apparently bad form. that it is not
easy to determine whether he Is Just natur-
ally incapable Or inspiredly So Even his
best wins have been brought about in spite
OF remarkably unskillful riding that one
cannet help thinking that to win under him
o horse must be tons the best animal in
the race. But he loses on SO many good
horses Just when 4 seems. to a certain ex-
tent. natural financial policy that the horse
should lose. and tf,sn wins when II is an
parently good policy that he should win.
fhat one cannot heil, wondering how such
Things happen. judge Brady will find the
youth an interesting ttudy.
