CHICKEN POLICEMAN.
High Hand, hut FINALLY Met
His Waterloo.

He was an orphan, or rather, he wa,
the only son Of a Plymouth Rock hen
who was so cNa sperated at her ill-lucl
in Matching only one egg out Of 10, that
she disowned her only chicken as soon
as he was out.
AS none of the other hens would
adopt him, it was necessary to feed
him by hand,
Naturally, he soon grew very tame
and became a great pet-too much of
n pet, in fact, for one day he actually
decided that he had quite as good a
right at the dinner table as the rest Of
the family.
Being particularly fond of mashed
potatoes, he would thereafter. If no
one was near, jump on the table and
help himself and many a dishful had

peCked it.
A young niece in the family, who had
not the patience of the older mem
bers, made il her especial business to
throw the chicken out But this did
not seem TO hurt his feelings at all.
He would promptly walk in q again with
out a shade Of ma lice in his cNpres,io
While he never went with other
chickens he objected seriously to their
quarrels, and if he found two hot
blooded youngsters engaged in duel
he would run at full speed from any
distance and separate them, leaving

WOMAN'S SOCIAL POWER.

The power and influence that woman
possesses socially is something for
which she should be grateful and use

many a community what tits. Passing

OUT OF WORK AND
DOWN ON HIS LUCK
THOMAS MCGOWAN SENDS BULLET
INTO HIS BRAIN IN ROOM IN
BALTIMORE BLOCK.

Despondent because he could not find
work and half crazed by the incessant use
of whisky, Thomas MCGOWAN, a miner
sent bullet crashing through his brain
yesterday afternoon at 80 o'clock in his
room in the Baltimore block. Death fol-
lowed instantly.
According to the landlady's story Nc
Gowan had been out of work for several
weeks and had grown blue. He had been
an occupant of the Baltimore block for
some time, and his roommate was George
McGahan, bartender
Yesterday morning MCGOWAN COM
planned to the chambermaid that he was
feeling badly. The maid told the landlady
and at the sick mans request she started
to summon the ambulance from the Boston
& Montana hospital.
Before the message could be sent Nc
Gowan left the building and was not seen
again until late in the afternoon Shortly
before o'clock he entered the room. At
$500 o'clock pistol shot was heard in
McGowans room and Officer Parlin was
summoned He entered the room with
Chief Reynolds and Coroner Johnson, and
the trio of officials found MCGOWAN on the
floor with revolver at his side.
The deceased has brother and sister in
Butte His mother is out OF the city.
An inquest will be held this afternoon
at Duggan's undertaking rooms.

Of the absent-minded ones or their failure
to beat the curfew to it. The town was
turned over to the Shriners of Algeria

the scimitars, the painted mules and the
quaking, whte-robcd novices were held
irresponsible for the peace and decorum

feeling this morning.

the big bell in the city hall tower sounded
an alarm OF fire and Chief Sanger and his
entire department came dashing through

merrymakers around the Finlen hotel,
where the new bunch Of pilgrims were
corraled and roped. The fire apparatus
and the band and escort arrived at the
same time, but even the hardened jokers
of the densely formed ranks were not
prepared for the mad dash down the hill
and around the corner into the flying
crowd of valiant fez men The march
from the temple to the corral was made
in good order but at the wild changing
Of the gongs from fire wagon and ambu-

adjacent buildings.
There was big crowd attracted by the
grotesque display, and by the time the
novices were thumped into line and the
parade had started back toward the hall
of sacrifice the red fire reflected the de
lighted countenanccs of hundreds, who
united in declaring the spectacle the
greatest ever carried out in Butte.
A piper headed the procession, followed
by the Boston & Montana band. Then
came James Thompson and his horse pis-
tol, followed by the fambcau detachment
with fiery streams cutting the dense
smoke The scimitar used was on duty,
and then came Frank Concy Of Deer
Lodge, followed by the ex-mayor of the
Ohio river, Billy Gemmcl, who led a
tanned contingent Of Crces through the
streets.
The novices we're attached to big rope
and guarded by hcartiess beings armed
with stuffed clubs, who took insane delight
