.tness, O'Brien entered saloon on
LAST Park avenue and was followed
shortly afterwards by jeff Masters with
several friends
These two have been at outs for sew
.pal months, and O'Brien began abusing
Iasters, and the latter left the salooAa
o'Brien followed in few moments, and
the two met in front of the Buffet res
taurant.
It is said that Masters pulled a knife
;...i cut at O'Brien, but whether he did
OF not has yet to be determined. A ma
n",.,ed Riley, who tried to interfere, was
stabbed in the hand.
C'Bren received several cuts on the
tCdy. He was taken to his room, and
the authorities were not aware of the
scrape for some time. 1t is said that
because several witnesses were under
the influence of liquor the way the play
came up can not Zoe clearly learned. The
case will be fully investigated today.

Sleighing parties We're quite popular

merry jingle of the bells heard in almost
every direction. There were a large
number of bob-sled turnouts arranged for
the pleasure of children. 1t is needless to

given them about the city and out into

The roads We're in excellent condition

The January Success.

ms easy when you're drifting with the
current down the stream,
When the oars are shipped beside you
and the laughing ripples CLEAN;
When there's naught to do but idle the
cushioned seat and bask
In the happy. glowing sunshine, while
RI the water does the task.
But there comes a sudden waking to the
fancy-and the dream
When the time arrives that some on
has to-pull against the stream.
The fellow who's contented while the
current bears him on
Finds that every mile he travels shows
wished-for haven gone:
Finds the water bears hi msoftly whers
the waiting chances lie,
But unless he does some rowing it will
swiftly bear him by;
Finds that down the stream the inches
that he looks for all are full,
And that If he'd seek the right one he
must turn about and pull.
But it's easy-very easy-just to floa:
along and dream.
Yet the man some time discovers that
he cannot float upstream,
And he learns. too, that the world is
full of folks who like to drift,
But the farther down tn eriver there
the current grows more swift;
And he also learns in sorrow that sue
cessful ones would seem
To have no use for the fellow who will
never row upstream.

WAS DISMISSED
CASE AGAINST SAM LANDRY AND
OTHERS COMES TO NAUGHT.
SAWYER ANXIOUS TO CONVICT
However, the City Attorney Wishes to
Do It Unaided and Alone and in
Due Legal Form-After All
Law Breakers.
Especial to Inter Mountain


Anaconda, Dec. 26.-The cases in police
court against Sam Landry and several
others We're dismissed by Police Judge
r. j. Haynes last Saturday afternoon.
The attorney for the defense G. B.
Winston, moved for the dismissal on the
grounds that no legal arrests mad been
made. He quoted TO some length from
several books of law. His point seemed
to be we'll taken and the court granted
the motion of the defendants attorney.
City Attorney Sawyer objected to any
of his power being usurped by Attor-
neys Duffy and O'Leary, who We're en-
ployed by the complaining witness and
who were he said, endeavorng to push
themselves into the case. Mr.. Sawyer's
objection was also sustained.
The city attorney declared that he
wanted to see the offenders arrested and
prosecuted, but he wanted it done in a
legal manner. He insisted that he was
ready to prosecute every denizen of
Mainvile but before he undertook it he
wanted to be furnished with sufficient
proof that the laws We're being violated
to justify such action.
He did not want to put the city to the
expense of the trial Of such offenders I'M
less he had some show of making a con-
viction stick.
To do this it is necessary" he said,
ito have pretty clear evidence that the
laws are being disregarded.
If the complaining witness will furnish
me with this and file a complaint in a
legal and proper manner will push these
prosecutions to the end

Princess Victoria is little known be-

Round Windsor she is Of course be-
loved. While her good looks have rath-
er q Teutonic air, she is well bred and
aristocratic in appearance, and she
dresses quietly and with admirable
taste. Princess Victoria was devoted
to the queen. and while the other
grandchildren were generally rather in

her grandmother with a merry and Vi

DOMESTIC LIFE OF
QUEEN ALEXANDRA:


one of the busiest men in Great Brit

raTy retirement from society owing to
the death Of her mother, the queen of
Denmark, was equally busy. She re-
lieved Queen Victoria of most of the
social obligations of the sovereign just
as the prince took from his mother the
drudgery Of attendance at public func-
/ tons. OF late years the princess has
presided at most of the royal drawing
rooms and kept up brilliant round Of
/ gayeties at Marlborough House.

cess Victoria is a clever, independent
young woman, though she is not con
sidered a beautiful one
All the children of King Edward and
Queen Alexandra have been sensibly
brought up. The girls often made their
own gowns and hats, giving the
money thus saved to a pet charity. The
princesses imbibed their charitable in
stincts from their mother, who, as Prin-
cess of Wales, spent much time, money
and influence in promoting good works.
She was most active in those benevo-
lences pertaining to her own sex. al
though general hospitals and funds for
the assistance Of soldiers have benefit
ed by her influence and service.
It was at Sandringham that the royal
family was seen at its best There they
lived the life of country gentlefolk, en-
tertainins guests and dispensing with
all possible formally They were per
sonally known to the people thereabout
and every year gave three balls for the
benefit of their neighbOrs. One of these
was for the neighboring gentry. anoth-
er for the farmers and their families
and third for the servants. At all of
these affairs the host and hostess and
their children and guests were. present
and all contributed to the general
fund Of pleasure. Although sur
rounded by scores of trained attend
anus. AleAdlluia was QulIe able to look
after the affairs of her household. Ev-
cry day at Sandringham she discussed
with the housekeeper the various do
mesuc requirements. After attending
to these duties her correspondence de-
manded her time, her secretary assist
ing. The rest of the day she devoted to
her gardens, her pets and her favorite
fad, the dairy.
One Of the features of Sandringham
is the small dairy where. like Queen
Marie Antoinette. Alexandra, with her
daughters played at being milkmaid.
The butter for the family was made in
this dairy and from it came all the
cream used by the household.
Two house parties were entertained
