THE POsTQFF!CE is IN
NEW QUARTERS.
Big Crowds Ihronged the New Office
of Uncle Sam.

The postoffice was moved into it's new
quarters on West Park street last night
and at the usual hour this morning was
opened for the days business.
The crowd in the new office was unus-
ually large this pnornlns, for the reason
that all box holders We're required to pre-
sent themselves at the windows to get
keys to the new boxes. 1t was good
ratured crowd, however, and they Grum-
bled very little at the long lines in front
of the windows. All spoke in the highest
terms of the new quarters and but few
ccmplained of the location. The work
men were busy all day finishing up and
will not be through until Monday morn
ing. The plate glass windows in the
front of the office will not be put in until
Saturday and at present the weather IS
kept out by large sheets of cloth.
Many people did not know that the
postoffice had changed its location and
went to the old stand for their mail. In
the majority of cases they soon caught
on to the fact that there had been a
change. but a number did not find out
that the old stand had been deserted
until after they had been there a long
time. If they had taken their lunches
the probabilities are that they would
have spent the day there waiting for the
office to open.

THEY CLAIMED THE BOY
HAD MADE A MISTAKE.
Two Youths Charged With Highway
Robbery Discharged.

Willie Laisella, bright looking boy
of nine years, told Judge Sullivan this
morning that three boys of about his
own age held him up and robbed him
of So cents at about o'clock yesterday
afternoon on East Park street.
Two boys giving the names of Robert
Shagilton and Willie Foley We're arrested
and taken before the Laisella lad and he
identified them as the robbers. He said
that one of them held his head while
the other went through his pockets A
third boy held his fest SO that he could
not kick.
After the robbery the victim went
home and related to an uncle what had
happened. Together they explored the
city in search of the alleged youthful
highwaymen and finally found them
coming out of Sutton's family theater
The two boys under arrest denied that
they had seen the Laiselle boy until after
they were placed under arrest by the
uncle. One of the boys had his mother
with him and she was positive that her
boy had done no wrong. She said that if
she thought he took money that did not
belong to him she would beat him to
death. The other boy produced a witness
who stated to the judge that the accused
was a home at the time of the. alleged
robbery.
The Laisela boy was positive that the
two boys before him We're the ones who
had held him up and when the judge
asked if it We're not posSial that he was
mistaken he said that he was positive
they We're the ones. Judge Sullivan after
hearing the conflicting testimony con-
Guided to dismiss the case but told all
of the boys that the best thing they could
do was to stay off from the streets in

Thomas Boyle, who officiates as jailer
on the day shift for the city of Butte, is
one of the best known and best liked
characters in the city, and it is doubtful
if he has an enemy in the state. He is
a grizzled veteran of the war, ana he has
tender spot in his heart for any old
soldier he happens to meet.
Thomas Boyle was born in Ireland on
Alrl l3. 1s4I. and came TO America two
years afterwards. He served in the civ
il war under General Burnside. in the
ninth army corps, army OF the Potomac,
existing on February rs, 1868, before he
was 16 years of age, and getting his dis
charge on August rs, 1850. During the
period of his service he was in many
battles and in one was severely wounded,
an exploding shell fracturing his skull
and wounding him in the hip. The piece
of shell that struck him on the hip con-
til ued on its way and ended the life of
a comrade who was lying next to him.
After the war he drifted TO Colorado,
and from there went to the Occur
