1T will be the new Williams

those in favor. of it, years of dis
arrangements. and years of OBJ
Stacles, set backs, and losses in
the last instance on the part of
both advocates for and against
corporation. The town will be
incorporated, and one might say
is incorporated, as the Board of
Supervisors is in session at this
: writing and undoubtedly will is
sue the edict before adjourning.
Should this be done, it means the
establishment of a fire limit, an
equate system of water works

Every citizen has been a man.
The merchants burned out

before the fire had ceased burn

Bros. carried extensive stocks.
Poison Bros. were in one respect
- little more fortunate than Mr..
Salxman as their main warehouse
was out of the path of the fire.
Both gentlemen were fortunate
in having cars of goods here and
on the way. Mr. Salzman i'm

Youthful Horsethief Is Rounded Up

Youthful Horsethief Is Rounded Up
At Livingston.
From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
A dispatch was received by the sher-
ifs Office yesterday from the sheriff
of Livingston announcing the arrest
of the boy who last week stole a sad
die and horse in this city, an account
of which appeared in The Gazette.
Although the thief is said to be.
only about IL years of age, he went
about the matter of providing himself
with a, travelling outfit in a manner
showing the experience of an old
''r~ustler." The horse he took belongs
to a man named Smith, who resides in
the eastern part of the city, while the
saddle was taken from the barn of P.
B. Moss, in the west end. AS the dis
patch also stated that the prisoner
had a roll of bedding, it is supposed
that he came in possession of, it in
| the same manner in which he secur-
| ed the horse and saddle. The name OF
the youthful %horsethief is not known.
Under Sheriff Sayles left last night
for Livingston to bring back the pris-
oner, who because of his age will
probably be held to the district court
for commitment to the reform school.

MARPLoT.
Law Again Brings Unhappiness to De
voted Couple.

A man who with light heart and
happy mien entered the office Of the
clerk of the court yesterday afternoon
left it shortly afterward with heavy
heart and serious face. He was the
second within a week to find himself
baked in his dreams of happiness be-
cause of the regularity Of one of Mon
tana's statutes. He wanted a marri-
age license and was impatiently wait
ing for Deputy Harris to fill out the
needed blank and answering hurried
ly to the questions put to him by that
official. Nothing TRANSFERRED to
him to think he would be denied the
boon he so eagerly craved until in an
swer to the usual interrogatory on
that point he divulged that his bride
was a Divorce, who had been freed
| from a former matrimonial venture no
| longer ago than last January. That
| ended the matter. The license could
not issue. The laws of Montana de-
| clare that parties to a divorce are de-
barred from marrying again until af-
ter the expiration Of two years on the
part of the innocent party, while the
guilty one. or the one furnishing the
grounds for divorce, must wait three
years.
While sadly disappointed, the groom
expectant took the matter ~philosophic-
ally and declared that the laws were
made to be obeyed. When Mr.. Harris
kindly suggested that an easy way
out of the difficulty would be a trip to
Sheridan or other some nearby point
in Wyoming and there invoke the aid
of the clerk of the court and a minister
or Justice, it was noticeable that the
mans face assumed a more pleased
expression and he retired, if not ex
actly happy, still less Respondent than
he had been a few moments before.
While the intent of the law is mod
erately plain, there are some attor
neys who do not hesitate to give it as
their opinion that if it were ever pu'
to the test it would be declared un
constitutional. The most the legis
lature could do in the premises, the!
say, would be to pass a law prohibit
ing either party to a divorce from
marrying within the time permitte'
for an appeal.

How to Cure Group.

Mr.. R. Gray, who lives near Armenia,
Duchess county, N. Y, says: Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is the best
medicine l have v used. 1t is a
fine children's remedy for Group and
never fails to cure When given as
soon as the child be m hoarse, or
even after the croupy cough has de-
veloped, it will prevent the attack.
This should be borne in mind and a
bottle of the Cough Remedy kept at
hand ready for instant use as soon as
these symptoms appear. For sale by

SERIOUS QUESTION INVOLVED.
County Attorney Gives Notice Of Ap-
peal In Important Matter.

A notice of an appeal from the
judgment of the. district court IN a
matter of more than usual Importance
to the public and authorities OF munlc-
ipalities was filed with the clerk of
the district court of this county yes
terday by County Attorney Hathhorn
The appeal is taken for the purpose OF
defining the law as it relates to the
right of peace officers to make arrests
for misdemeanors committed in their
presence without first going through
the formality of securing warrants.
The judgment from Which it is in
tended to appeal was rendered last
spring by Judge Loud in the case OF
| State VS.. John Shay, who was arrest
ed by a policeman of this city for VIC
lation of one of the ordinances. AS
it developed at the initial trial before
the police magistrate that the defend
| ant had seriously resisted the officer
who arrested him a complaint was
! filed against him in the district court
| charging him with resisting an officer
in the discharge of his duty, an Of
tense which under the laws OF the
state is made a felony. When the
matter came up for hearing Judge
Loud discharged the defendant on the
ground that no officer, according to the
statutes of Montana had the power
to make an arrest after night with
out due process of law, or in other
words such arrest was illegal when
made at night unless made upon a
warrant regularly issued by some one
competent to do so.
At the time the decision was render
ed the then mayor and city council
took steps to have an appeal taken
so as to bring the matter before the
supreme court in order that a final
decision might be had. Meanwhile
the police authorities were instructed
to make arrests the same as usual, as
it was deemed that to comply with the
ruling of the lower court would be
LaLamOuHL 10 SuSpeHuluS VA ~
nances in force for the preservation
of peace and good order, it being con
sidered a physical impossibility tc
secure warrants in all cases tina
might arise requiring arrests for the
proper enforcement of the law.
AS the question raised by the de
cision of Judge Loud has, never beer
passed upon by the court of last re
sort, outcome of the appeal will b.
awaited with much interest not onl.
by the authorities of this city, but b.
those of every town and city in tn
state. Should the lower court be sus
tanned the police power of ever,
. municipality in Montana will be ser!
ously crippled.

HOURGLASSES,
Ihey Have Not Gone Out of Style by
 Long Shot,

Most people think that hourglasses went out of style years ago." said d clerk in q Twenty third street store, along with perukes and knee brooches. put as matter of fact we have more calls for them today than We have had ht any time within the last ten years. That this renewed popularity of the AourSlass augurs it's universal accept. ance as timepiece by the coming gen efatlon 1 am not prepared to say, but II such renaissance were to become assured it would be no more Surpris. Ing than some of the other recent fads based on revival of lost customs. Anyway brief study of the hourglass Will do nobody harm. There are thou sands in this generation who have not the slightest idea what an hourglass looks like, and it won't hurt them to broaden their education d little along certain lines.
 of the hourglasses sold at present the three minute glass is in the lead This glass is used almost exclusively to measure time in boiling eggs, and it's
 
 little i'll advance of the more senti- mental varieties. Next come the five, ten and fifteen minute and full; hour glasses. which are bought chiefly by musicians for piano practice and by lodges and secret societies
 ''Tlle sand used in an hourglass is the very finest that the world affords. The western coast of Italy furnishes most Of 1t, as it has done for ages past The cost of hourglasses is regulated by the ornamcntation of the frames. X glass set iii plain rosewood ease can be bought for $1 while a mahogany frame comes to S1.50 or &. Of coursc the price can be brought up still higher by fancy carving and decoration. Swell lodges sometimes go to this extra ex- pcnse, but most people are satisfied with the cheaper grades. New York Sun.
