WILLOW TREES EXEMPT.
CD Prospector Says That Lightning
Bolts Never Strike Them.

Speaking Of lightning" remarked an
old prospector this morning, as he
watched the electric sparks fly from un-
der the wheels Of a trolley car as it
passed uD Main street, do you know
that willow trees are never struck by
lightning?
ITS fact" he continued, as a smile
of unbelief went around. Now. I've
been travelling over Montana and the
West for a good many years, and during
all that time I've never known of a
willow tree to be struck or even injured
in the slightest.
There are many trees in the mountains
and the valleys that seem to attract the
lightning, but the willow is not one Of
them. Go where you will, you will find
shattered pines, oaks and frs, but never
a willow.
Just why the willow should be eX-
empt from death or injury by lightning
I can't tell, but exempt it is"

Principal Witness Was Not Present
Taken Under Amusement,

Charles II. Baxter. said to be con-
nected with the Western Medical Dis
pensary of this city, was tried in Justice
O'Connor's court at Walkervila yester-
day on charge of practcing medicine
without license, but at the conclusion
of what little testimony there was the
matter was taken under advisement
John Callahan was the complaining
witness, but he failed to appear, and
Deputy County Attorney Lynch had to
handle the case as best he could without
him.
In an affidavit he told the justice what
Callahan would say if present, and the
defense admitted he would say it, but
would not admit the truthfuness of it,
The case of the state against Frank
Rooney, accused of failing to provide for
his family, will not be heard until Tues

Butte Fire Chief Rues His Little Joke
on Whitehall Department..

Mayor Davey, With Chief Sanger and
others of Butte's municipality, We're in
Whitehall yesterday for the purchase
of a number of horses for the city fire
department.
After some time spent in inspecting
the fine points of the equines Chief
Sanger inquired for Whitehall's fire
chief.
He was informed that the official,
having attended dance the night be-
fore, had not yet risen. 1t was then 10
o'clock and Sanger did not approve of
the fire chief getting out of bed at such
a late hour.
Looking across the street he espied
the bell used for sounding fire alarms.
He ambled across and began to jerk the
cord vigorously. and to such good eff
feet that the whole fire department re-
sronded.
Chief French. when he discovered
that it was a false. alarm. became nfu-
rated and logged Sanger off to the
justice Of the peace. While the con-
stable was looking for the Judge expla-
nations became in order, and French
learned for the first time who his cap
tor was.
Mr.. Sanger was Immediately released,
but he has decided to play no more
practical jokes.

JUST ONE WORD DID IT.
George johnson, Sentenced to 10 Years
For Robbery Gets New Trial.

George johnson, colored man who IS
months ago robbed James G. Vier Of
$'5 in daylight near the corner of Da-
kota and Galena streets. and was sent
to the penitentiary for 10 years, is to
have another trial. the supreme court
having sustained his appeal from the de-
cision OF the district court In refusing to
grant him new trial.
The appeal was based upon the alle-
cation that Judge Clancy, in instructing
the jury in the case, used the word "ac-
companied' instead Of accomplished"
In defining the act of robbery.
johnson is still in prison but will be
brought back to Butte in few days.
Vier, the complaining witness, is still
in the city, and 1t Is possible that
another trial will take place.
AT the time he was robbed Johnson
was employed as Waterman at the Colo
RADIO company's old concentration, and hs
still resides in that section.

School Board Devises Ways and Means
TO Check Sickness.

At regular meeting of the school
board last night the time allotted was
taken up by a discussion of PROPOSE
ton by City Physician Leggatt relative
to the stamping out of contagious dis
eases.
The report was made by Superirtend-
ent Young that % cases of sickness
mostly scarlet fever, were at present
prevalent throughout the schools
Mr.. Young inquired as to the best
course to pursue regarding the books
which have been in use by 'the pupils,
and he was requested to destroy them
In the discussion as to the best method
to adopt in stamping out the conta-
gious diseases in the city DR.. Leggatt
submitted the following:
That the board make it compulsory
for the pupils to bring in g certificate,
signed by a physician, certifying that
the family is free from any conta gious
diseases.
The health department. he said.
would be responsible for sending out
the certificates.
1t was further stated by the health
officer that scarlet fever has of late
been spreading rapidly, but that the
time of the year when such cases are
more widespread than in the summer
was largely the cause of the trouble.
