"Children,' said the teacher, while in

A movementis on foot to turn tn,
waters Of Dupuyer creek into the DIR,
Forks. 1t is claimed that it can be. don,
at a reasonable cost by running a tunn e
for about 200 feet through a hill not fal
from r. 8. Browns ranch. If this ca

, rense the Dry Fork ranches would sool
be second to none, as the surplus waite

One of our county officials is giftec

fails to bring tears to the eyes OF all suf
fering humanity within a radius of fort
, acres. He was on a trip in the norther
, part of the county recently and stopped
at a ranch. During the still hours G
the night he proceeded to open up oil
some of his choicest selections, but i
was too much for the ~ranchman's sol
> and heir who pulled his fathers Slew
and said: "Dad what tune is that felle
Z singin"?
At Glasgow the trial of Dan J. Stiehl
the Culbertson rancher, charged wit
; cattle stealing, came to an end by tn
: jury falling to agree. The hearing G
: evidence occupied two days, and the de
PENDANT made rather a poor witness i
his own behalf. The evidexce for tn
state would have been greatly strength
$ ened if the preliminary detective wor
had not been bungled. Stock Inspeo
tors Stafford and Jones testified agains
: him, the latter having found an ST hid
in the river near 6tiehl's house the da
, he was arrested, and buried it, but tn
cache had Deer raised when he wen
back for it a month later.
