The familiar strain of Nearer, My God

GENERAL CONFERENCE.

Bozcman, May 3o.-Sensation follows
sensation in the case of Miss Fannie
Schulse against Rev. j. Bar Harris, in
which she is endeavoring to have that
gentleman suspended from the ministry.
1t was given out today that the fight
against Mr. Harris will be carried into
the conference of the Methodist church,
south, which meets in Butte in August
and trial Of the facts will be had before
that body.
Nothing will be given out by the Revs.
Rector, Tabor and Price who heard the
evidence against Mr. Harris 1t was
charged that the minister is guilty of
conduct of a grossly unbecoming nature
and the evidence of Miss Fannie Schuse
was positive OH this point. On the other
hand the committee which tried Mr.. Harris
says that he was the victim of malicious
persecution Today the Inter Mountains
representative interviewed Rev. S. C.
Tabor, the member of the committee re-
siding in Bozeman, and he said:
"Rey. Harris has been acquitted of any
charges that have been made against him
by Miss Schulse. The committee had
no reason to believe the charges made by
the young woman were worthy of be-
lief" -..,o-.

HEROES OF TWO WARS

Under the exhilarating influence Of the

observed Memorial day, 1909, in fitting
manner.
From the moment when Colonel Byron
II. Cook, marshal of the day, gave the word
of command to the gray haired soldiers Of
the republic to march until the buele note
of Taps" echoed clear and soft from the
frown foothills, there was not hitch of
any kind in the days proceedings.
Long before the hour appointed for the
start the line of march was thronged with
the thousands who came to watch the pa

With slow and feeble tread the veterans
Of the war of the rebellion came next in

was no mistaking the martial air and the
fire of battle in the eyes of the men who
offered their lives to preserve the life of
the republic.

STORM AROUND MORGAN.
WindmillS and Buildings We're Wrecked
Toying With Life.

Speaking of the storm around
Morgan on Saturday evening, July
9Th. the Morgan Messenger says
that on the Giltillan farm half dozen
wiudmills, at least, were stripped
and blown down. At the Adolph
HOul farm a windmill was shattered
to pieces. On another farm near
there a windmill, chicken house and
wagon were blown around and bad
ly damaged. At the VIM. Wegner
farm the storm probably did the
most damage Here a windmill,
grauary and barn were totally de-
mollshed The cloud was funnel
shape and formed near the Lars
George place, passing to the north
to Mr.. Wegner's farm. Here it
dropped down and struck the gran
ary, barn and windmill. The gran
ary was picked up aud landed in the
grove. Mr.. Negner and boy were
in the barn at the time the wind
struck it, but they we're no: injur-
ed. The barn was taken from the
foundation, only the sills being left,
and scattered over a space of sever
al rods. A sulky plow near the
barn was moved about two rods.
The funnel shaped cloud jumped
from the Weguer place to the farm
of Louis Marx and there completely
demolished a large new barn.
In Sherman township the storm
did considerable damage. The
house owned by Geo. Weddrof,
about 16x20 feet in size, was blown

FARM RESIDENCE BURNED.
That OF Dwight Bissell, Occupied by Wal

The farm residence OF Dwight
Bissell, situated about four miles
up the river from this city, was
completely destroyed by fire about
nine o clock last Friday morning.
The residence was occupied by
Walter King. who has been a tenant
on the farm for the past seven years.
Mr. King lost all of his household
furniture, with the exception OF a
couch and one or two other articles,
and also lost all of his wearing ap-
parel. The members of bis family
had their wearing apparel destroyed
also. Mr.. King carried no insur-
ance on the household effects or

and the boy taken to the grove to a

AROUND WANDA.
The Wanda Pioneer Press says
that during that Saturday afternoon
the new windmill erected only a
short time ago on the farm of Mike
DOoner was blown over and totally
wrecked. The same misfortune
happened on the farms of Math Jen-
niges and Ed. Dooner, east of the
track. An adjoining shed of Carl
Bauman barn was thrown into the
air by the cyclone, carried dis
tance and ground to splinters. His
large barn received thorough
shaking and was twisted into an
uncommon shape. The barn on the
fArm of Mrs. Kluegel, 26x5O feet in
size, was totally wrecked. Herman
| Dagner S barn was struck and prac-
tically demolished. The windmill
of Dunk McTaggert was twisted
down. The corn crib, chicken
house, and wagons were also des-
troyed His residence narrowly
escaped a tip-over. A chimney OF
the house, however, joined the pa
rade of the twisting clouds.
1t is reported that no farmer in
this vicinity is as heavy a loser
from the storm as Guenter Becker.
His fine large barn was totally des
troyed and scattered all over the
farm. His windmill was also thrown
to the ground. Other smaller
buildings and farm implements
were considerably damaged.
