ASKS COUNTY ATTORNEY TO MEET
HIM WITH SHOT GUNS, AND RE-
QUEST is REFUSED.
LAWYER CANNOT SEE THE
SPORT IN PROPOSITION
Thinks the Weapons Make Il a Common
place AHair-Man Prefers to Remain
IN County Jail to Promising Not to ki /
Official When He Is Free and Can
Find His Enemy.

Albert Ginsberg gave County Attorney
Breen today cordial invitation to fight
duel.
Mr.. Breen declined without thanks.
MIR. Bieen's excuse was that there would
be no sport in the encounter. the element
OF uncertainty and an opportunity for a
display OF skill being eliminated by the
character of the weapons.
Ginsberg said that the objections we're
not valid, for the reason that his life was
as valuable as the county attorneys, and
that he would be risking it as much. The
official rejoined that their lives might be
equally valuable, but that their willing
ness to part with them might differ.
Prefers Jail to Peace.
Albert Ginsberg prefers TO remain in
Jail rather than agree to keep the peace.
Ginsberg was committed to the county
Jail by justice of the peace three or
four weeks ago to insure his keeping the
peace. 1t had been proved that he had
threatened the life OF the county at
torney,
His anger at the county attorney grew
out of prosecution for perjury which was
started against him and then dropped on
account of an affidavit he made in the
Felker case. In his affidavit he stated
that he and other jurors in the case had
looked at certain photographs of the MUIR
dered man, Cunningham, while deliber-
ating on their verdict.
1t was believed that the statement was
perjured. 1t developed that it was true.
So a perjury prosecution was started
against him and then dropped.
He became very bitter against County
Attorney Breen on account of the charge,
and followed him around and finally openly
threatened his life. Then he was put in
Jail to keep the peace.
Mr.. Breen this morning held an inter
view with him in the county Jail, and
tried to bring him into a better frame of
mind, but the interview resulted in moth.
ing except to establish the fact that he
had not yet relented in his hatred.
Time for Thought.
Mr.. Breen told Ginsberg that he would
release him from custody il he would
promise to behave, and that it was no
pleasure to keep him in Jail if settle
ment could be reached.
Ginsberg then made the generous offer
to give Mr.. Breen "a hours notice before
shooting him. The county attorney an
swered that the mere matter of notice
was not specially important thing if a
man must be shot after he had had it.
He refused to agree to the proposal.
Ginsberg is committed for year. and
the commitment can be extended at the
end of the term if he is still unreasonable.
He will be kept in Jail till he comes to
terms or his condition warrants sending
him to the insane asylum.

ACTIVE ERUPTION
HUGE, WICKED LOOKING CLOUDS
NOW HOvERlNG OVER FORT
DE FRANCE.
[BY ASSOCIATED PRESS ]

Fort de France, Island of Martinique,
Monday, May 26.-Mount PeIee is again
in eruption. Huge, inky black clouds are
rolling over Fort de France in great
masses in which there are peculiarly
vivid lightning flashes.
The inhabitants are now flockina into
the great square of the town. If the
demonstration increases a panic is inn
minent.
A heavy surf has been beating on
the shore for the last two hours and an
enormous, ereysh-yeIow cloud at a
great height Is dinly visible in the direc-
ton Of Mount PeIee. The night is in
tensey dark and the stars are only faint
y visible.
Fort de France is in no danger from
the volcano, but there is considerable
apprehension of panic in the night time
should the ereysh-yeIow cloud reach
here and ashes and stones begin to fall
There are no noises from the volcano
at present.

DONOVAN
TALKS OF IRRIGATION

"rhere is no probability of any inter
national complications or knotty legal
questions in the big irrigation project
which the government has in contempla-
ton up in the St. Mary country" said At
torncy General Donovan at the Thornton
this morning.
'lt is just the same as when cattle in
bond pass through Canada and return
The waters Of the ST. Marys river rise
in the United States and empty into
United States waters and are never the
property Of the Canadian government
Northern Montana people are delighted
to hear the active measures Senator Glib
son is taking in the matter. You hardly
realize here what It means. Two million
three hundred and seventy three acres Of
acre of which will be capable of irrigation
by the great St. Mary's canal.
Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock has
already made OH order withdrawing this
enormous section from use by big cattle
companies and those who lease land
Nothing could be a better indication Of the
ultimate intention of the government to
make the great canal complete success
than this action.
Confidence in Gibson.
"Senator Gibson knows more about irri-
CATION in this state than any man in public
life, and it appears that notwithstanding
the difference in politics the administra-
ton has unlimited confidence in the SEN
ator's judgment.
Some objections are being made by the

Trouble has come thick and fast upon
the head of Sarbecly Kahn the one time
subject Of the Amccr OF Afghanstan who
was robbed in Iowney's saloon on north
Main street Sunday night OF SIS III money
and S5 worth OF juicy lamales.
Sarbalec Kahn was struck N the mouth
and knocked down today by man who
took two tamales aud paid for .nem only
IS cents, the price of one.
No wonder Sarbeely, with his mouth
full Of blood. looked sad in the county at
torncy's office, when, with Patsy Khan, he
appeared there Ia get another complaint,
this time for assault
Sarbeely kahn's Trouble.
Patsy Khan told the tale IN uguhrious
tones Evidently the woes Of lie were
coming upon himself aud his tired and
true partner in the iamalc business too
swiftly. His slumbefous eyes were lui
OF mournlulness and SORROW.
Patsy Khan told Deputy County A,,or-
ney Yyncll that while Sarbccly Kahn was
vending lamales ~ East Park street this
morning near the city hall man called
the latter to him aud took two tamales
from the bucket. lie proilered IS cents.

abled to lease large sections Of the ranges
for grazing purposes, hut il is evident that
the advantage TO be derived by the small
holders ultimately makes up a thousand
ttnes for what the big outfits lose.
u et me illustrate the difference: A
few cattle companies who derive an enor-
nous income from the leased land will be
deprived Of that privilege.
9 "Thcy may send trainloads of cattle out
of the state every year and all they leave
here is the hire OF a few cowboys and the
1-taxcs they pay. They may spend their
money anywhere. Some OF them tour the
/. country and go to Europe, for they can
Acn,ily afford it, but they can do all their
business in Montana without any expense
w 9rth mentioning.
Make More Homes.
Under the proposed irrigation scheme
thousands OF settlers will be enabled to
have homes and comfortable ranches.
These people contribute to the material
wealth of the state. They have their fam
lilies here they remain all the year round !;
they develop the country build fences,
raise crops and make the land valuable
Where one cattle magnate grazed his
cattle by the thousands, hundreds Of ranch
men make living and comfortable
home.
This project is going to make North
ern Montana wealthy commonwealth
where Industrious and desirable settlers
can make an honest living and at the same
time materially advance the value of the
state.
Senator Gibson is doing benefit 10
the people of Montana that will last for
ever. Irrigation is his pet project and
xhe is going about it in big and practica-
bic manner"
