Forest Rangers In the Park viii Act
as Deputy Game Wardens.
Helena. July 15.-After a stay oil
several days In the Yellowstone Ma.
tional park, State Game Warden w.
+. Scott returned to the city today.
He went to the park for the purpose
OF comforting with A. A. Anderson,
special superintendent OF forest re
serves in Wyoming, who has jurisdic.
ton over the Absarokee division 81
the Yellowstone forest reserve, on the
proposition OF making the forest rang
ers deputy game wardens. The ar
| rangement was completed, and here
after there will be rs or 80 rangers on
the borders of the park who will act
as deputies to the state game warden
whenever necessary.
Il has been decided to hold a meet
ing of game wardens in the park at
an early date for the purpose OF con-
ferring with a view to arrnging for CO
operation between the forest reserve
authorities and state game wardens

den w. Van Iorns. OF Idaho, and Scott.
OF Montana.
81 am continually receiving letters"
said Game Warden Scott today, from
people who wish to call my attention
to the fact that ranchers have no
screens In the heads Of their irrigating
bitches. There is evidently a misun'
Outstanding about the screen law.
There is no such thing, the old sec.
ton having been repealed in 1897, and
there is consequently no provision
compelling ranchers to put screens in
their ditches."

ZIDMAR WILL
HAVE TO HANG
Second Trial Of the Livingston muf
derer Results in a Second Con-
viction and Sentence.
HE KILLED GEORGE REloEf
Crime Committed Two Years Ago
Zldmair Received His Sentence
Yesterday.

Livingston, July 1G.-Martin lid
MAR is again in the shadow of the
gallows. The jury which heard the
evidence In his case returned a verdict
OF guilty of murder in the first de-
gree this morning. Judge Frank
Henry will pass sentence next Thurs
day.
The jury was out about twelve
hours, having retired with the case
at 10 O'Clock last evening. The trial
began last Monday, and had been pros
ecuted vigorously since. A large
crowd Of spectators was present in
udge Henry's court when the
jury returned its verdict this morning
Half an hour before the jury was ush
cred in IL was pretty generally known
that a verdict had been reached, and
many persons went to the court room
Zidmair showed no emotion whatever
when the clerk of the court read the
verdict. To all appearances he was
not interested in the outcome.
The trial just ended was the second
in which Zidmair was defendant. He
was charged with having shot and
killed George Reider on Trail creel
two years ago last April. He was
convicted of murder in the first de
gress on his first trial and sentenced
to be hanged. He was later granted
a new trial on errors of the lower
court.
II is understood that his counse'
will move for a new trial, and thai
an appeal will be taken, If an order
denying the new trial is made.

Helena, July l5.-Judge Henry G,

from Lewistown, where he delivered
the Fourth of July address, says he is

Smith. Both afford excellent loca-
tons for prospective homeseekers,
whether they be stockmen, ranchers,
merchants or professional men.
"Lewistown now has a population
of upwards OF 1000 people and others
of the right sort are constantly going
there TO locate. The city has a very
good electric light system, which is
at present a private enterprise, but
the water works system. which is ex-
c~ellent. belongs to the city.
While | was there definite steps

city is well laid out, in such a way
as to give ample opportunity for
growth In all directions and to beau
tify the streets.
The Judith Basin is n Of the
most beautiful spots | have yer seen.
The soil is a black loan and the veg.
citation at this season Of the year is
luxurious. One can drive mile after
mile in sight of hundreds of acres
of waving grain and the feed for

PAPER MILL WORKING.
Big Venture in Which e. W. King 10
Interested Ready to Start

Manhattan, July 16.-Manhattan's
dream of an extensive paper mill has
at last come to a reality and the plant
is nearing completion. save a few
pieces of machinery which are on the
way from the east. Henry Alien
brand, president of the company, has
recognized the same. James Nor
gan is vice president and general
manager and e. W. King, of Lewis
town, secretary and treasurer.
The building is a fine stone struc-
ture, 80 by $50 feet, two stories high,
with iron supports, which make it sub
~stantial for the use of heavy machin-
cry, which is necessary in the man
uf%acture of paper. The power Is
steam, furnished by two immense en-
gines of 100 and $50 horse power.
The company will manufacture what
is known as express paper-a water
finish, light building board and paper
sacks, which is made principally from
barley and oat straw. Later on they
will utilize waste paper and old rags
supplied from Helena, Butte, Great
Falls and other towns. The straw Is
run through a hopper, ground into
small PARTICLES, then elevated into a
blower and carried up into an iron
rotary globe room IA feet in diameter,
treated by a process of lime water
and reduced to a pulp. Then 1t Is
transformed into large watts, where 1t
is lastly treated and prepared for the
large rollers, which complete the pro-
cess.
The mill is already turning tons OF
straw pulp. This is the first paper
mill venture in Montana and promis-
es to be a great success, as the man.
ager has been connected with d. w.
Boyes' paper plant at Marseilles, Ill.
BY August LIST the plant will employ
some forty men. The daily output will
be about IL tons of paper.
The company is arranging to build
twenty houses for its employees.
