Especial from the Irack.)
This being the last day but one of the
local race meeting. the card being ex-
cellent and the weather ideal, a large
crowd turned out to see the gallcpers
perform at the track. There was plenty
o. money in sight and the betting was
lively. The following of favorites stuck
to form playing and the pikers looked
for the get away money getters. The
talent got off wrong at the start Hattie
Perkins was made favorite at to l in
the first race, selling at five and one
half furlongs. A bunch of money went
in on the mare, who could do no better
than third to Jim Brownell, 3 to /, who
was beaten by Hurtle, 10 to l. The time
was 1:08k. Hurtle went out in front at
the fall of the flag and won all the way,
the others appearing not to try. I'M

WERE VERY JEALOUS
THREE MEN ACCUSED OF AS
sAULT IN THIRD DEGREE.
COMPLAINT WAS FILED TODAY
Trouble in Boarding House-The
Fiancee Of the Boarding House
Keepers Daughter Beaten
The Star Boarder.

considerable trouble happened at the
boarding house Of Mrs Brown at 42O Ea st
Broadway, last night at $3.50 O'Clock, and
out OF 1t grew charge Of assault in the
third degree against three men whose
names are ]. ]. King, Pearlo Quigley
ami David kilhani. The complainant in
the case is James Russell. and, Accord
Ing to his statement to Deputy County
Attorney Lynch, jealousy was at the
oasis Of the assault.
Russell says that he is engaged to Miss
Brown, the daughter OF the boarding
mousse keeper, and that the three defend
ants In the assault, King, Quigley and
kllhani, lay in wait for HIM at the
boarding house last night and assaulted
MIN. The inference to be drawn from his
statements was that he was, besides be-
ing the fiance of Miss Brown, the star
boarder at the eating place, and incurred
the enmlty of the men named on both
scores.
When the defendants attacked Russell.
ne valiantly drew Iistol.But, he says,
they took it away from him and beat
him over the head with it. They BACKED
his eye and bruised one of his cheeks and
otherwise injured his head, according to
mis- statement, and thereby laid the
foundation for the charge which he
brought against them.
King was arrested by the police last
night and brought up to the county Jail
this morning in the patrol wagon, but
he secured his release in Justice Nelson s
court, where the complaint was fled
with $25 cash bond. After that he vis-
tied the county attorneys office and APP
piled for a warrant for Russell on the
ground that the latter drew revolver
on him. The warrant was not issued,
however.
King made the statement that Miss
Brown hit him behind the ear with a
cup before the melee with Russell
started. He said that the cup cut his ear,
and he ungallantly declared that he
threw the cup back at Miss Brown and
tried to hit her. Miss Brown told Russell
that the three defendants had been saucy
to her and that their sauciness got King
the bank with the cup.
It is not known whether the defend
ants were wooing Miss Brown at the
time or not. 1t Is possible they were
pleading for q large allowance of pie and
the desirable rating accorded star board
ers.

SUIT ON FRUIT BILL
DEFENDANT IN A FRUIT CASE
ASKS FOR JUDGMENT.
BANANAS WERE DECOMP0SED
Stromberg Alleges Damages in Suit
With the Fruit Dispatch Com
pany-Did the Best He Could
With Them.

In the case of the Fruit Dispatch COM
pany. a corporation, against J. A.
Stromberg, doing business under the
firm name and style of j. A. Stromberg
& Co., supplemental answer was filed
in the district court today. The fruit
company sued Stronberg to recover the
value of carload of bananas which it
shipped to the latter from Louisiana,
and Stromberg stated in his supple
mental answer that most of the ba-
nanas We're rotten when they reached
Butte. He sets up the defense that he
realized 1929 out of the bananas, and
that he did $3.50 worth of work for the
fruit company.
The complaint says that the plaintiff
agreed to buy a carload of bananas from
the defendant on the 18th of April, 1900,
and that when the fruit arrived at
Butte on the Goth of April the plaintiff
started to dispose of them and discov-
cred that they were in a large measure
rotten and wholly unsaleable."
The car contained 800 punches of the
fruit SO dear to the heart Of the timer
ant Italian, and that plaintiff alleges
that $50 punches out of the 800 were
"decomposed" and that only few
punches of the remainder were in the
condition agreed upon by the parties.
The defendant says that he did the
best he could with the car Of disin-
tegrating bananas. getting the best
price he could command for them, and
that all he realized. after he had paid
the transportation charges, was 1929.
He goes to say that he performed la
Dor for the plaintiff in selling the fruit
Of the reasonable value Of $3.50, of which
he had realized $1o9
Both parties are corporations under
the laws Of New Jersey, and the de-
PENDANTS sets up as special defense
the allegation that the plaintiff was do
ing business in Montana at the time
the suit was brought and at the time
the cause of action arose without COM
plying with the laws of the state.
The supplemental answer alleges that
the plaintiff has altogether failed to file
a copy of it's articles of Incorporation
with the secretary of state or the coun-
ty clerk, as required by law, and that it
has never filed it's consent to be sued as
a corporation in the courts of the state,
which is also required by law. The de-
PENDANT also declares that the plaintiff
has never a statement designating a
person as it's agent in the state, author
lied to act for it.
In view of these allegations, the de-
PENDANT asks the court to award him
a Judgment for one dollar and costs.

Slavery Protected the Negro.

~ s~eAO
If the negro had been forced to CON-
pete for existence in America, he would
have been crushed out by the civilized
power, as the Indian has been, says
Albert Phelps in The Atlantic, but the
peculiar institution Of slavery protect
ed him not only from this competition,
but also, by artificial means, from those
great forces Of nature which inevitably
weed out the weaker organisms and
which operate most unrestrainedly up
on the ignorant savage. For the first
time, perhaps, in the history of the
world human beings had been bred and
regulated like valuable stock, with as
much care as is put upon the best
horses and cattle. As a natural conse-
quence the sanitary condition Of the
negro during slavery was remarkable,
especially by contrast with his present
condition, and his growth was the alb
normal growth Of a plant abnormaHy
raised In a dollhouse. When, therefore,
this IA Of helpless beings was
thrown upon its own by the
act of emancipation and when the pro-
lection of slavery had been withdrawn,
the direst w~retchedness and suffering
followed.

QUEEN ELlZABETH'S FAULTS

il Was Very Vain and Unfortunately
Fond of Fine Dress.
Yet Elizabeth was never really sue
ceSsful with her wardrobe as a more
feminine might have been. Her
dresses were never beautiful, only lu-
dicrously and most appropriately
magnificent-laden with jewels, weight
ed down with cloth of gold, stiff with
silver embroidery and so heavy that
even her big, powerful frame must,
without supporting vanity, have felt
the fatigue of carrying them about.
Elizabeth was certainly vain, but she
cannot claim femininity merely on that
account, for vanity is by no means an
exclusively feminine characteristic,
There are perhaps more vain women
than vain men because women have
more leisure and their costumes afford
greater opportunities for vanity than
the strangely ihideous clothing which
custom has arranged for men, but no
thoughtful (feminine) observer can
vain m
Elizabeth's hands were her especial
pride, and, judging from her portraits,
they were certainly beautiful. They
were laden with jewels, and it was her
habit in public to pull her rings off
with absent artlessness and push them
on again, moving those white hands
about in the most obvious way. Once.
during the grave consideration Of a
state paper, wherein her cold %sagacity
never took second place, she interrupt
ed the discussion to ask whether the
Due d'Anjou, who was at one time one
Of her s%uitors, had been told what a
pretty foot she had and how white and
we'll rounded was her arm? This in
the woman who financed the armada
with hard headed economy, who dared
the superstitious terrors Of her own
conscience in her high handed and i'm
pudent treatment Of the bishops, whose
interest in methods Of torture for state
prisoners was most mechanical and in
telligent, entirely unhampered by any
~squeamish feminine hesitation as to
blood or pain. is most curious.
In connection with this last charac-
~teristic Of cruelty vanity is not at all
unprecedented. Indeed, if one observe
closely n will notice that excessively
vain persons have almost always a
strange inclination toward cruelty.
The accounts of what Queen Elizabeth
permitted and indeed commanded in
this respect will hardly bear reading
by us sensitive folk tOdav-Marparet
Deland in Harper's Bazaar.
