ASSESSORS OF MONTANA MET,
Fixed the Basis of Personal Propert,
Valuation.

Helena, Jan. 29.-The Assessors
association of Montana met here to-
day to fix the basis of this years val
uation of personal property. Nineteen
of the "A county assessors in the
state were present. Committees were
appointed on each of the five classes
OF property and recommended the fol
lowing rates of assessments:
Stock, cattle, $22; yearling, SIS;
twoyear-old, 500; dairy cows, $50;
stock, sheep, including lambs, $3.50;
hogs, IS; beef cattle, horses and buck
sheep left to discretion of assessor;
rough lumber, $500 per 1000 feet J.;
first class lumber SIS: logs, $3.50;
dressed and merchandise lumber and
cordwood left to the discretion of as
SCISSOR.
1t is proposed that assessors of
those counties where the value OF
land is fixed by boards of appraisers
will furnish lists showing the average
value of the various classes of land
to the assessors of other counties
for their guidance. 1t is also pro
posed to obtain the opinion of the
attorney general on the question
whether unsurvcyed land, on which
government scrip has been filed, is
subject to taxation. the owners claim
ing it is exempt
The committee reports will be act
ed upon tomorrow at meeting tc

lar form, and a comparison with the
statements of previous years show
that there is gratifying increase in
every line.
"Organized labor is one of the rec
ognized institutions of the state and
one of the factors of it's unparalleled
and universal prosperity. The direc-
tory of the unions will show that
every branch of industry is represent
ed at every industrial center, and the
schedule of wages will demonstrate
that good wages and industrial pros
perity may and should exist at the
same time and in the same place.
The raising of cattle and sheep
and the growing of wool, two of the
most important industries of the
state, Montana being the largest wool
producer among the sheep growing
states of the union. are considered at
some length.
This report will be found to EN-
brace comprehensive line of local
statistics, affording recognized
source from which desired data may
be secured. The analysis of foods,
showing authorizations in many of the
articles of everyday consumption
Will be OF interest to every reader and
surprise to many, as it demonstrates
to what extent the manufacture of

lie health in order to add slightly to
the profits of his institution.
"One feature that will be of lasting
interest and valuable for future ref
erence, is the official precinct vote on
the complete national, state and coun-
ty tickets for 1900

be told of what this state has to offer

mand for the last report"

Soiu returning ana d Dig DOnuS on the
side.
Inc betting sot SO last that one
Oh the players had 10 give up every
tnlng, anu ufop out, put the others
stuck. 1T was d bad night out. The
wlnd was bowling ana the rain came
down in sheets, which threatened the
sport at the track the next day. But
the players did not mind that. PattisOn
sat near d window and the blind was
banging and jamming at such a rate
that he called for ii boy to hook it in.
When the sash was raised a great gust
of wind came in, and many of the dis
carded cards were scattered on the
table. Pattison's five cards were on
the table at the time, and he was
reaching into his pocket for more
gold. With the window down again
the discard was picked up, and set on
one side, and the betting continued.
when the betting reached a stand
still Pattison was the man to be call
ed. There would have been no end
to the betting if he had had to do
the dealing for he considered his hand
invincible. The man across the table
asked Pattison what he had.
-Four tens over here said he, and
with that he turned the cards down.
Quietly the caller looked at them.
what he cried -Four tens?'
Where are they? Man, are you bluff
ing?'
"Pattison looked startled. There
on the table lay his hand, shy just
one card and the missing one was a
ten. In an instant he realized that
the gust of February wind through the
open window had ruined him and he
admitted it, but he didn't whimper"
That's one time my tens hurt me,
he said quietly, and the other man
took the money on kings full.
Explanations were offered and it was
led, but Pattison was the first to raise
his hand in protest, and the game
stood. He quit that night because he
was not financially able to keep it up,
but when the sunshine came out in
the morning it was not brighter than
Pattison, and he sat with the ladies'
at the track and talked of everything
but gambling. Pattison figured UP
his losses that week at more than
100000, and the lowest estimates
placed on the hand which was lost
to him by the wind was $4,000.
THAT was only one of the many
games played for high stakes in
Charleston in what the older people
now call the good old days. The old
planters owned magnificent estates
from which big returns came in every
year, and the slave business was an
item which helped to fatten many i
pocketbook. The elder men were
just as anxious for quiet game as
the youngsters, who went away from
home and returned with new and ad
vanced ideas about high life, and the
, youngsters never could Guido theil

DAVIS IS
IN LIMBO
In Minnesota Charged With
Burglary.
HE HAD A TRIAL HERE
For Assault in the Second Degree, But
Got Clear By Paying Light
Fine.
HE HAD A TRIAL HERE

Readers of the Bee Will remember
John and Joe Davis who were Oh trial
at the last term of the district court
in this county for assault in the sec
ond degree. The Davis boys had Gre
ated disturbance at one of the hO-
tells on the west side, assaultinS the
landlady and conducting themselves
as all round toughs. When Officer
Hannah attempted to arrest them in
the Great Northern yards some time
later they gave him a hard fight ard
without assistance he would have
been unable to land them. They
were arraigned in the district court
charged with assault in the second
degree, but they told such a hard luck
story that the jury took pity or them
and let them off with $25 fine. Dur
ing their incarceration they had at
tempted to set fire to the jail and a
charge of arson was placed against
them. At the time of their trial for the
assault they told how Joe was an ex-
pert accountant and had been elected
justice of the peace at JeffersOnville.
Ind, since they had come west and
he was trying to get back there TO ac-
cept the job which was alleged to he
worth about 81, 800 year An alleged
certificate of election was forwarded
to the officers here, and upon the pay
ment of the $25 fine it was decided to
release Joe, and let him go home.
However, instead of getting ont Of
town at once, Joe proceeded to get
hilariously drunk and was again ar
rested. The jalor was then instruct
ed to hold Joe on a charge Of arson,
but through some misunderstanding
he was released that night and made
his way out of town. His subsequent
career is outlined in the following:
The authorities have learned that a
man arrested here for grand larceny
at ST. Joseph, who gave the name of
Joseph Door, is one George Davis,
who has a criminal record, says 4 ST.
Cloud, Mimi, dispatch to the Mime
apolis Journal. He was recently in
Jail at Kalispell, Mont, for assault
ing woman, resisting an officer, and
for arson. His brother is still in GUS
tody in Montana as the principal in
the case and will be prosecuted Davis
was released on his promise to leave
the state. The authorities there are
much interested in his conviction here
and write they will do all IN thcir
power to further the ends OF JUS
tice.
Door, or Davis, and John p. Roller
who has done time at Saltwater, were
arrested for burglarizing a saloon al
st. Joseph. The authorities did not
nave very good case against tn,
former, but he is alleged to have con
fessed to a fellow prisoner while il
jail, and offered him money to destro,
proofs of his guilt, which were secret
ed outside the Jail. This Testimony
given before Judge Allen, resulted i,
holding the young men to the CRANE
jury. Both prisoners VOW vengcanc,

players made the time pass pleasantly
with the free use of the fine Madeira.
ITO the best of my recollection
there was one jack pot which had
been filled in until it was enormously
wealthy, and of course the players
were all anxious to get it. This made
them put up good sums to meet the
money showed in by the opener, and
Pattison was particularly anxious to
win it as he had been playing far be-
hind the others. He came in after
the pot had been opened and added Il
raise which lifted the hair on the
head of two of the players, but they
stuck with him and the chips made a
big sum for the man VINO was to be
the winner. Pattison was well fixed
to stay in, as he had three tens To
start with. Tens We're his fayorites,
and he said to himself that he would
get another as he had never failed 10
draw the fourth. He kept on raising
because he felt that his other ten
would surely come. Well, when il
came to the draw Pattison did what
many other players would not do by
drawing two cards, instead of taking
one and running bluff. He knew his
men. however, and knew that another
cnance for his card was better than
a pretended bluff. so he took the two
cards, and the second, sure enough,
was the ten. Fixed as he wished.

limit, and he saw visions of his lost

HIGH PLAY IN THE SOUTH.
Gust Of Wind That Cost Poker
Player $4,000.

High play was sometimes indulg-
ed in by the rich southern planters
who owned barrels of money before
the war;" said former Of
fficer in the Confederate army
TO the Charleston, Is. c.
correspondent of the New York
Sun. The desire to plunge on the
horses and the cards were strongest
during the meetings of the South Car
DINA Jockey club, when thousands of
dollars were placed on the running OF
an animal. This cub flourished for
more than one hundred years, but
now the Washington course where the
races were run is being dismantled
to get site for an exposition. These
meetings, which lasted for a week,
brought together the best horsemen
from three states, and there was no
limit to the placing of their money.
One feature different from the tracks
OF this day was the absence of the
bookmaker, but this did not mean
that money was not bet. The rich
southern sports made bets among
themselves, and some of those fine
horses made and lost fortunes when
ever they crossed the line.
The races, however, only served
to whet the sporting appetite, for it
was in the private club rooms at night
that the greater part of the southern
money changed hands. Poker games

PARTICULARS OF A TRIP TO
 ARK KANSAS BY A KENTUCK]


 It was the pleasure of the writer to spend three weeks wis iting in the state of Arkansas, not long since and coming to the conclusion that possibly a few remarks on the present existing conditions in that state that came under my observation while there, would be of some interest to people not acquainted with that section of country, I take the liberty of writing this.
 It is a well known fact that for many years a certain per cent of people living in the north central states have been prejudiced to some extent against Arkansas as a place for locating on account of the fact that the climate is said to be such as to produce chilIs and malaria until one gets thoroughly climated. This may be true in certain portions of the the state, for instance along the rivers and bayous where the land is not properly drained but the western part of the state is elevated and dry and as a gener. al rule the health in that section is good.
 The writer enjoyed the courte- sy of being driven around through the country in the vicin- ity of McCrory the town in which he visited. In driving through the country some as fine farming land as can be found in the southwest can be seen,- the surface is generally level and the land is fertile and easily cultivat- ed, 1 was informed.
 It may be said that cotton is the chief product, notwithstand- ing there is a great deal of corn raised in the state in seasonable years, but the acerage of corn is small compared with that of cot ton. The farmers give nearly their whole attention to the rais- ing of cotton. On account of a
Woodruff County news., 1901-10-26

trough in Arkansas this year, was told that the cotton crop would not yield over 50 per cent and the corn crop is almost to- tai failure. The protracted trough which began in April was not practically broken until a few weeks ago, when a copi- ous rain fell, but it came to late to be of any benefit to the crops. All of the slashes and swampy places were dried up which had not occurred before in many years. The ground was as dry and hard as could be, and there were cracks in the ground in some places that were caused by the hot sun, that a man could easily step in. The gardens are all parched and dried up months ago, but these conditions do not exist in Arkansas every year, take the state when they have had a good season and the crops are bonntiful and you will find that there is good times and plenty of money in circulation and it is spent literally by all classes, when of course there is poor crops and renters barely make enough to pay their rents

AN OPOSSUM HUNT.

A merry party drove out last Monday night on a "possum hunt. " The party was composed of the following: Misses Norma Landers, Anna Belle Riggs, Oma Scales, and Sallie Biggs. Messrs. Galen Patterson, Murray Petit, Samuel Kyle, Hamilton Riggs and Will Wilder.
 These hunters were chaperon- ed by George Moore, Bud Baker. Alfred Parker, George Brown and eleven dogs.
 The moon was sending her most tender beams earthward to gladden. all who might be out on a "'possum" hunt The woods were full of the animals sought, but for some reason not fully ex- plained to our satisfaction, the hunters and hounds could not CO., operate in the capture of MT. 'possum. The hunters gave the hunted" warning and the hounds of the hunters soon be- came tired and withdrew from the chase.
 Realizing that the dogs were conspicuous by their absence, the party came back unsuccess- full as far as "possum was con- cerned but most of them had most enjoyable time.

 IN MEMORLAM.

Again has the curfew tolled and again has one of Gods noblemen been called from earth to paradise. Mir. C. k. Atkinson. who on last Saturday surrendered all that earth is, first saw the light of day at MoorsVille, Limestone Go. Ala. Sept, 10th 1851. His parents moved to Arkansas while he was still mere babe. He has lived in Woodruff Go. ever since, with the exception of a short time spent at Batesville. On Sept. 10th 1885, under Rev. Skinner's preaching held at the town of DeView, he joined the Methodist Church South and has been one of the most devoted soldiers of the cross ever since. His light has always been on the hill and day or night in sorrow or distress, one al ways knew where to find MT Atkinson. He has fought a good fight and now reigns with his God in glory forevermore. Words are inadequate to express a tithe of our sorrow and respect for such a man as MT. Atkinson. Men are scarce articles and when one sees man, he sees one of the most potent powers of God s cre- ation. Pope says" An honest man is the noblest work of God"
 We should all emulate his ex- ample and when our time shall come to cross the chilly waters of death and face the realities of the world on high, the world can point to us and say" He has been with his Savoir and shall have his reward. God will say We'll done thou good and faithful ser want, thou hast been faithful over few things l will make thee rul- CT over many, enter thou into the joys of thy Lord.
 The NEWS with legions of oth- CT friends offers it's sympathy to the relatives in tbis the saddest of ali earthly bereavements.
