FORCED TO RETURN.
Butte Sheriff Takes Alleged Minor
From Questionable Resort.

Butte Sheriff Takes Alleged Minor
From Questionable Resort.
Late Monday night it developed that
Sheriff Furey of Butte had come for
another purpose than to merely visit
Billings and become acquainted with
it's people. Shortly before the west
bound Northern Pacific train was due
he went down into the lava fields and
arrested Rose Walker, a "boarder'
at the Castle" and took her back
with him. The warrant on which the
arrest was made was issued at the
instance of the girls mother, who re-
sides at Butte. 1t charged her with
being an inmate of a house Of ill fame
contrary to the wishes Of her legal
guardian, the girl being designated as
a minor.
The girl made no serious objection
to accompanying the officer and de-
clared that she would soon return.
She said that she was of lawful age
and free of any restraint that her
mother might care to exercise. over
her. She furthermore claimed that
her mother had forced her to become
what she was, saying her mother her
self had always been a trile careless
as to her morals and closed her
charge by making a more serious one.
She said that her mother was simply
endeavoring to compel her to be
where she might be near enough SC
that she could become the beneficiary
of her earnings, claiming that her
mother wanted all the money she
made instead of allowing her to keeI
it for her own use.

SECRET or FRENCH ROYALTY
REVEALED BY DISCOVERY OF
ANCIENT MANUSCRIPT.
The Find Has Been Sent to the
French Ambassador at
Washington.

Cincinnati, Dec. PA Gallipods
special says the discovery OF a manu-
script in a private drawer OF an OLD
clock in that city reveals a secret OF
the French court and shows the
reason for the visit to that city IN
1889 of the Duke of Orleans, after
wards Louis Philippe of France. The
discovery was made by a shop keeper,
Cloud M. Wall, while investigating
an old French clock that had been
cast aside for army years. Taking
it apart he found a secret drawer IN
which to his amazement he discovered
an ancient parchment manuscript in
French wrapped with a portion OF a
flannel skirt of a child, richly en-
broidered and bearing a monogram.
A piece of fine lace also was with the
manuscript. Upon translation the
manuscript purported to be a true
history of Adele De A%lonquon." 1t
was addressed to Adele, apparently
to be given her when she grew to
maturity. The substance OF 1t was
that Adele was the daughter of the
Duke of Orleans. The mother died at
the child's birth, ignorant of the rank
of the father. The writer was then
placed in charge of the child and sent
with it to Gallipods, where there was
a French colony. The story ran tina
he became her %preceptor and finally
after the visit of the Duke of Orleans
to Gallipods, it was determined tt
send Adele to a Catholic school II
France. The mother of Adele, not be
ing of royal blood the marriage wa:
kept a secret.
Mr.. Wall has sent the manuscript
to the French ambassador at Wash
ington. Some portions of the papers
giving names and Image have no
'Aeen made public.

Wheat For Horses.

Wheat as Il food for horses was test
ed at the North Dakota experiment sta
ton. The results are published in bull
ietin No. 20 of that station. The wheat
was fed at the rate OF fourteen pounds
daily, and the horses were given an
average days work. 1t was found that
wheat alone was not a satisfactory
grain ration for a work horse. There
was, a tendency for the horses to get
loft feed. and for the digestion to be-
come deranged.
