WILLIE Beck HANDLES HIS

LEFT A TRAIL OF BLOOD

Landed His Man.

Missoula, April 21:-H Willie Beck
had only used a gun with a bigger
bore than he did he would have land.
ed a burglar and either killed him
or put him in the hospital for some
months. Last night, while his mother
was asleep and he and his father were
out spending the evening, two men en-.
tered their home IN South Missoula
and ransacked 1t and tried to get away
with a quantity of silwerware. It
was a dark night.
When Willie got home he noticed
that everything downstairs was out
of place. He went into the kitchen
and found the back door open. He
found in looking around that the sill
verware and some other trinkets and
also several pretty souvenir spoons
belonging to the little daughter in
the family were missing. After clos
ing the doors, Willie went to his room
and opened the window to look out
and see IL he could get sight Of any
one. He caught a glimpse Of two men
behind the woodpile. He got his o.
rife and waited awhile to see II they
would attempt to get away. In half
an hour the men made q move to en-
ter the house again. Willie, seeing
them jump the fence took a shot at
them. The bullet took effect or one
of the men, but not in a vital place.
He fell over twice in trying to get
away, and managed to get out OF
sight by the time the folks downstairs
had made a search for him. They
found a gunny- sack, in which the
men had placed the silverware and
souvenir spoons and the other stolen
articles. It was an exciting night for
Willie, who is only 13 years Of age,
and speaks we'll for the little fellows

Inquiry developed the fact that the
mar who was hit had not applied to
any of the local physicians for medi-
cal assistance. Where the man had
crawled over the wood there were
blood stains, showing one had been
hit.

e. 3. HIckL,N JUMPS A SMALL
PIECE or GROUND.
Found a Piece Of Land Which No
One Claimed and Put a Wire
Fence Around It.

Missoula, April PA big sensation,
was sprung in Missoula today when
1t was learned that e. B. Hucklin,
late Of Helena, had jumped the small
piece Of land in the rear OF the Ham.
mond block. 1t wal q sensation be
cause 1t was the last thing that ever
was expected and because no one
ever knew that there was a chance
for any n to jump the ground. The
strip of land is about so by 105 feet.
there being but five feet between the
end of his lot and the Hammond
block. The lot runs close to the
river bank, and Hicklin claims that
he could run up to the edge Of the
river. Hicklin was seen this after
noon while he and some men were
putting up a neat looking wire fence.
The work was done quickly, without
any trouble ON the part Of either side.
"Ill tell you just how this u.s." said
the gentleman this evening. II came
to Missoula a few days ago and be-
gan looking for a location on which to
build a house. I went all w the
town and could not find anything to
suit me. I found some land. but II
was too high priced. I then discover.
ed that no one claimed to own this
piece Of land here, and such being
the case, and not having a great deal
Of money to spend, I thought I would
take 1t, as 1t would not cost anything.
I did not say anything to any n
about the lot. and got my friend, John
H. Simpson. over from Helena to
make an abstract Of 1t.
HE found, just as I have stated,
that no one owned 1t, and I moved on
1t. as YOU see, today by my building
tho fence first. Now there are q few
fer+ Of land Of the lot that already
belongs to the street. which I am go
ing I, deed to the city as soon as I
get n" deeds from the probate Judge.
Mr.. Keith Of the bank came to e
me this afternoon and wanted me to
move off, but I did not do SO because
1t Is mine and I can stay on 1t II ]
choose. He got his attorney, Mrv
Stiff. and he wanted me to get OF.
but I told him I would not do 1t. I.
expect to put up my house within a
few days. when I will move my fam
lily in for the summer. Missoula is a
beautiful little town. and l am sure
we will enjoy it here"
It was learned today that the
ground on which Hicklin built a fence
was hauled there to fll in a deep
sloping bank. The block was built
within a few feet Of what was once
the river bank and 1t was necessary
to fill this in. It is on this lot that
Hicklin built the fence. Hundreds of
people went down to sec the work
being done, and many Of them wished
that they had known that the land
belonged to- no one, If 1t does not.
