ceived from settlers to apply on their
hnal proofs, has been found guilty
of the charge, Judge Henry sustaining
a motion of Attorney H. J. Miller that
the jury be instructed to return a ver-
dict OF not guilty because of the de-
tectiveness of the complaint.
Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock
has issued a new series of instructions
to persons travelling through the yell
lowstone Park. The most notable of
the new regulations prohibits all mo-
lestation or interference, by feeding or
otherwise, with bears and other wild
animals in the Park. We take this to
mean that you must not wrestle with
the bears, twist the tails of the noun
tain lions, nor ride the bison when
visiting the nations Wonderland. The
restrictions will soon be such that it
will be no more fun to do the Park
than to visit a measly old ZOO" in the
effete east.
Thursday night mob went quietly
to the Glasgow Jail, overpowered the
two guards and took Jack Brown, who
escaped from Jail with Hardee, Nc
Kinney and Pierce on June 6, and
hanged him from a window in the
court house. Brown was serving a
short Jail sentence when he ESCAPED
with Hardee two months ago. He was
recaptured with Hardee and was sem
fenced to six months just before his
second escape. He was caught a few
days later at Hinsdale. When Brown
was captured he was in great fear of
being lynched, but it was not thought
such thing would happen as it was
reasonably sure that Pierce was the
man who killed Jack Williams. the
guard, when they made their escape.
The state board of textbook commits
sioners adjourned Saturday, after
having adopted the books for the
schools to be used in 16 branches.
Supplementary books are still to be
adopted, and they will be selected by
committees, and reported at another
meeting of the board, to be held in Au-
gust. The non-union label houses
carried off the lions share of the
adoptions, as is shown by the amount
of bonds furnished. CHM & Co.. who
secured the readers and biographies,
will give a bond of $4,000; D. c.
Heath g. Co., who will furnish the
arithmetics, will give a bond of So, 500,
and the American Book company,
which will furnish the speller, physi-
ologies and supplementary civics, will
give bond of 81, 500. The total bonds
of the non-union houses is $4,000,
which is more than two-thirds OF the
bonds given by all the houses. Before
adjourning the board passed a num-
ber of resolutions of thanks.
The disbarment proceedings against |
Attorneys A. J. Shores and D'Gay
StWes will be resumed in department |
three of the district court one week
from Tuesday morning, Judge Nc
Clennan having made an order to that
effect. 1t is now rearly six months
since the hearing was continued owing
to the press of other court business and
the desire of the defense to secure a
number of dispositions from people in
parts of the country. Judge
who petitioned for the disbar-
lnent of the two lawye ers in connection
with the Minnie Healey mine case,
was the principal witness at the first
hearing, being examined at consider
able length both by the prosecution
and the defense. Senator J. M. Ken
nedy will probably go on the stand
when the case is ia en- up again next
week. His direct testimony was given
last winter, bait oaa account of his legis-
lative duties he was not tcross-examined.
With the exception of Attorney Stivers,
who is in Alaska, all interested in the
have been notified to be
present IN court on June 80.
