takes Him.

Cold in death at the undertaking estab-
lishment of E. H. Sherman lies the BODY
of Ernest Gallo, a native of Busala,
province of Genoa, Italy, and a scholar
and linguist we'll known in Butte.
His death is great shock to the many
friends of Gallo and was as tragic az
it was sudden. :.
It was the result of runaway accident
in Mercury street, yesterday afternoon
on the way home from the funeral or a
friend, at whose grave Gallo had de-
livered the funeral oration.
Amadeo Barsanti, miner employed
at the West Colusa, died at the Sisters
hospital Tuesday, after short illness
from typhoid fever.
Delivers Funeral Grafton.
His body was inferred at the Catholic
cemetery yesterday afternoon. Ernest
Gallo, who had been a close friend, de-
liyered the funeral Grafton, which was
said to have been a mastery eulogy.
After the ceremonies at the cemetery
Gallo drove into the city in buggy
with David Vannucci. In front of them
drove Frank Fioran and friend, also
in buggy.
When in Mercury street. between Mon
tana and Dakota, the horse driven by
Vannucci became frightened and ran
away.
Vannucci was thrown violently immedi-
ately after, and within the next so yards
Gallo was hurled against a city water
pipe near the curb and was rendered un-
conscious.
Fiorani and others went to the as
sistance Of the injured men. Vannucci
To 1,n mr.
attention was given to Gallo.
He was removed to ST. Paul's hos
pital in the patrol wagon and an ex-
animation disclosed serious injuries to
the head dislocated shoulder and bodily
bruises, indicating the possibility of in
ternal injuries.
Sent to a Ward.
After Gallo had been restored to con-
sciousness and his superficial injuries
| dressed he was sent to ward to await
| developments.
Everything possible Was done for the
injured man. but without avail. and
shortly after 4 o'clock this morning he
died. Friends were notified and the re-
mains turned over to the undertaken.
Gallo was 35 years of age and teacher
Of languages. making a speciality Of
Italian, French and Spanish. He was
| tutor to many prominent persons in
Butte.
Little of his family Is known, and
until the public administrator takes
charge Of his effects their Whereabouts
will not be known. 1t is thought that
| they reside in Busala.
Gallo is said to have often spoken Of
his father. mother and two brothers.
Friends of Gallo understood that his
[ family was wellto-do and prominent.
They will be communicated with and
asked as to the disposition of the re-
mains. 1t is probable the body will be
sent to Italy for interment.

BITTEN By AN UGLY DOG.
Little Willie Smith Has an Unpleasant
Experience With Canine.

Experience With Canine.
Willie Smith, a particularly diminutive
lad. for his years, had an experience
with mongrel dog Of more or less vi
cfous proclivities, yesterday, which near
ly cost him an ear, the right ear at
that.
Willie lives with his widowed mother
and brothers at AT Walker avenue. In
the neighborhood lives William Thomas,
whom Mrs. Smith claims is the owner
of the dog in question.
While Willie was playing near his
home he was attacked by the dog. The
canine fastened its teeth in Willie's ear.
and had it not been for companions who
went to the rescue, Willie might have
been more seriously injured. AS 1t was
the ear was badly lacerated.
Mrs. Smith sought Chief Reynolds of
the police department. and to him made
a complaint against the dog, which COM
plant will be investigated.
Mrs. Smith claims her eldest son,
George, aged years, was bitten by the
dog some time ago, and that she did not
report that matter because she thought
there might be a chance that her son and
companions had annoyed the animal.
The offense of yesterday was too much
for her, however, she stated, and the
complaint resulted.
Chief Reynolds promised to take the
necessary steps in the matter and ad-
vised Mrs. Smith to have the injured
ear of Willie cauterized. Mrs. Smith
said she was too poor to afford the serv-
ices of physician, SO the aid of Health
Officer Leggat was solicited. No serious
results are anticipated from the injury
to the boy.

SETTLING TIE BILL
JUDGE HARNEY's COURT OCCU-
PIED IN MINNIE HEALEY CASE.
BILL OF EXCEPTIONS HEARD
Lawyers in the Big Suit Engaged in
Tedious Work-Basis Of Mo-
ton For New
Trial.

Judge Harney was occupied today in
the hearing and settling of the amend
ments to the bill of exceptions an,e the
bill itself in the celebrated Minnie Healy
mining case.
The matter, which is important, as the
bill of exceptions is to be used on the
motion for a new trial made by the
plaintiff, occupied the court and the law
yers interested nearly all day.
The plaintiff was represented by Attor-
ney T. j. Welch and John F. Forbs, and
the defendant by Attorney John j. Nc
Hatten.
At the outset there was a question
raised as to the method of procedure
desired by the court in the discussion
of the amendments to the plaintiffs
bill Of exceptions offered by the defend
ant.
All Supplemental Matters
The amendments contained all of the
supplemental matters which the defend
ant desired injected into the exceptions;
a.so all of the alterations and elm
nations.
The court announced that it was not
aware of the number Of the amendments,
and SO was unable to estimate the time
their settlement would involve. The set
tlement of the amendments would neces-
sarily carry with it the settlement of the
bill of exceptions.
Mr.. Welch proposed that the amend
saents resisted be taken up and settled
one by one. Mr.. McHatten expressed a
preference for different method.
He desired that the plaintiffs attor-
neys designate the amendments they
would consent to and those they would
resist, and that the latter all be taken
up together.
The court asked how many amend
ments there were, and was informed that
there were So Mr.. Welch then an
nounced that the plaintiff would probably
consent to rs per cent of them.
First Consented To.
The first was consented to and the sec
ond resisted The latter was resisted on
the ground that the notes of the plain
tiff's stenographer did not show the mat
ter it contained.
The official stenographer, Mr.. Noble,
was then required to refer to his notes
of the trial. and a recess was taken to
give him time for the purpose.
The stcnographer found, the matter
was argued by Mr.. McHatten and Mr..
\. elch. The court took the amendment
under consideration.
The seventh amendment was contested
at first by Mr.. Welch and then consent
ed to as immaterial. The ninth amend
ment involved the change of this bond"
TO "his bond" compromise on "the
bond" was agreed to by the attorneys.
A.ler this the lawyers went down
through the list slowly. investigating. ar
guing and settling the amendments one
at time.
