IONA. New Mexico and some parts Of
Texas are found rock pictures. Some
Of these are engraved in the rocks and
others are painted thereon, In some Of
the cayerns, where the figures are pro-
tected from the elements, the colors are
as bright today as when laid on, centu-
rles ago,
Some Of the rock pictures Of both the
past and the present are more IN the

information Filed Against Ditmer in
District Court.

N. fgHWH
Although it raj believed that the
matter would not reach the district
court, except on a motion for leave not
to file an information against him,
the case Of State VS.. Willis Ditmer
will be tried during the present term
Of the court. An information charging
him with having obtained goods under
false pretense was filed against him
shortly before court adjourned last
Wednesday.
Ditmer is a merchant at Shell, Wyo.,
and was arrested several weeks ago
en- complaint of a former employe OF
the Donovan-McCormick company,
who charged him with having made
false representations as to his inan>
cial condition and on the strength OF
such Misrepresentation had secured
credit for merchandise valued at
$1,205. Ditmer was arraigned before
Justice Fraser and on preliminary
hearing vas held to the district court
in the sum of $3.50.
In the information it is alleged that
Ditmer claimed he was the owner OF
a stock of merchandise and real estate
at Shell and that the property was
unencumbered and that his stock OF
merchandise was worth $4,000. While
making his representation, the infor-
nation alleges, Ditmer knew he was
disappearing matters, as a mort
gage given by him to John Allen,
also of Shell, for $4,000 was then
covering the stock.
Ditmer was arraigned and entered
a plea of not guilty. His trial was
fixed for March 16. The bond OF
$3.50 that he gave for his first appear
ance was continued.
The case is somewhat mixed. The
claim is made that the debt was paid
before the institution of the action
and before the mortgage became due.
On the day of the defendants pre-
liminary hearing it was stated by
interested parties that that would be
the end of the matter, as it had been
settled and there would be no. further
prosecution. ffs

marily as a publication for sportsmen,
it may be read with pleasure n pro-
fit by all; particularly those who love,

teresting. In addition to the usual
articles of interest to the man who
shoots or fishes, the current issue mas
a number of cleverly written stories,
all vibrant with life and spirit. "The
Roundup of the Road Agents, by n
of the men who participated in the
capture of a gang of fellows, tells
how a band Of outlaws who had OBJ
bed a Northern Pacific train in this
state we're finally run down. Local
flavor is given to the story by reason
that a number of nearby places with
which almost every one in Montana
IS familiar are mentione!.
From Idaho is a contribution by
Doctor T. M. Bridges in which is told
the strenuous side of Indian life be
