opposition which has heretofore ex.
listed to the opening of Indian lands

If successful, the bill will undoubt-
edly provide for the appointment OF
a board of appraisers to appraise the
value OF the lands to be opened and
their classification as regards agricul-
tural and grazing lands. While it
cannot be said at this time what the
probable valuations will be, it is re-
garded as likely that they will range
from about 81 to IS an acre, the lat.
ter price for the more desirable agri-
cultural lands and the other for lands
valuable only for grazing purposes.

earnest of the local anglers are dis
cussing the advisability of taking
action at this time for the creation
of public sentiment in favor OF some
legislation by which the conservation
of the game fish OF the state may be
secured. 1t is safe to say that when
the legislature convenes the next time
pressure will be brought to bear for
the enactment of some law calculated

A man giving his name as Ed Muir

surrounding cities. Friday morning
Chief Nelson of Livingston arrested
Murray, who had been attempting to
DISPOSE of things answering the de-
scription of those taken by the Dur'
glar. A razor bearing the stamp OF
Yegen Bros. was found in his pos
session. Information of the arrest
was sent here and Sheriff Hubbard
went after Murray.
A negro, named st. Clair, was also
arrested on suspicion of being al
accomplice of Murray He, however

LOVES FONT DRY.
Mrs. Fountain Is Suing Husband for
a Divirce.

After having been married to him
for a little more than seven years,
Mrs. Cora N Fountain finds that the
spring of love for her husband, i.
c. Fountain, has flown dry and she
now asks the courts to release her
from the bonds of matrimony. She
alleges non-support as the ground.
In her complaint, filed late Satur-
day evening, the lady says she and
the defendant were intermarried at
Montisano, Wash.,. February 10, 1896,
and that for more than a year past
she has been resident of the state
of Montana. During that time, she
charges, her husband has not contrib
uted to her support, although physi-
cally able to maintain her, and that
he is idle and profligate- and because
of such idleness and profligacy she
has been compelled to earn her owr
living. Therefore she asks decree
and such other relief as the court may
(. think her entitled to.

the gulf that The Picket has rushed into

There were no excuses TO offer for
The Picket's defeat, except that OF lost

126 pounds-the regular stake weight
He was made the favorite, but he never
showed a trace OF speed or stamina,
and ran in the ruck throughout, finish

Rostand Deserved to Win.
The despised Rostand. a colt that
could not earn his oats in the spring
and one which has been considered here
tofore merely a "mudlark." won the
stake. cleverly by a neck from River
Pirate. The winner demonstrated that
he was much the best by surmounting
many difficulties during the strug-
gle for an early position. He was forced
to run around a big field early in the
contest. but showed his merit by rush
ing through the stretch with a great
burst OF speed when the pace and dis
lance made Stolen Moments and Shot

One of those acrobatic twists Of
form" which have caused the nerves
OF the plungers at this meeting to
twitch occurred in the fifth race when
Ascension. with los pounds on her back.
easily defeated a fast lot Of sprinters.
among them being King Pepper IN her
previous race this Ally was so badly
ridden by Smithson that II caused ad-
verse comment. With Hicks on her back
she was a marvel OF speed.
That Ascension would show her old
feetness was anticipated by the wise
men of the paddock, who backed her
from to / down to TO 2. II is such
sudden changes Of form. from slow to
fast. that have aroused so many exhi-
billions of anger by race track patrons
against this meeting
Major DaingerfeId won the handicap
at mile and q furlong from poor

to beat him if any other jockey but Reed
had been on his back. But Reed was
unable to do the two-year-old justice.
and the Major had the race practically
at his mercy.
