Unknown Man Murdered.

The deeomposed body of man
was found few miles west of Hot
Springs. The body had lain where
found about three months. The
skull showed that the man had met
a violent death, as it had bullet
hole in it. The bullet had entered
at the back of the head and come
out near the eye. The coroner's
jury returned verdict of death
from gunshot wound inflicted by
unknown parties. There was moth
ing by which to identity the dead
man. The only article TO furnish
a clew was a gold wire pin with
the name SsAnil' engraved ON it.

Jury Find Frank McKeehnie Not Guilty
of Selling Whisky illegally.


The socialistic-anarchistic gang of
bogus reformers of Lewistown bust.
ness morals received a Fitzsimmonian
wallop in the solar plexus last Thurs
day afternoon when a jury declared
Frank McKechnie not guilty of the
charge of Illegally selling liquor,
trumpet up through personal spleen
by a nondescript passed. of %irresponsi.
bles.
The facts as brought out at the
trial of McKechnie. showed beyond
any doubt, the dirty, contemplate,
low-handed motives of the s~o-called
men behind the affair. J. II. Walsh,
the beefy, brainless boor who, to the
everlasting shame of the profession,
calls himself an editor; Henry Lynch,
a third rate bartender, formerly walk
ing delegate for the Lewistown labor
union; A. T. Harvey, a victim of evil
associations and an abnormal self.
conceit. and Tony Baron, simply a
tool of the above mentioned knaves,
are the men who conceived and ex.
ecuted the brilliant scheme which,
thus far. has proved a boomerang to
It's originators. About six weeks ago
they decided to get even" with the
three druggists of the town because
these men had too much business sa-
gacity and self respect to have any
thing to do with the leaders of the
utterly ~uncalled for, unnecessary and
futile strike of the stone masons and
carpenters last fall. Labelling some
bottles, they took them to each of the
three drug stores and had them filled
with whisky. Tony Baron did the
work while the other three beacon
lights of morality 90 stood on the
outside. They then had the druggists
arrested, and, after many unavoidable
delays, the case against MceKchnie
came TO trial Thursday afternoon.
Considerable difficulty was exper.
fenced in securing a jury, as almost
everyone had already expressed an
opinion on the subject. After two
hours, however, a jury composed of
Tom Vehawn, Sam Anderson, John
Crowley. John Rowley, w. NJ. Nc.
Clean and Tom Smith was secured.
States Attorney o. w. Belden ap.
peared for the state and prosecuted
the cause vigorously. He proved that
the liquor was sold as charged and
to this fact there was no defense,
Baron and Walsh went on the stand
for the state and the latter fellow
particularly, spent about the most un.
comfortable half hour of his life while
Attorney r. Won Tobel cross examined
him. He admitted that the charge
was brought simply to vent their spite
against the druggists, who were pre-
sumed to be in sympathy with the
Citizens Alliance. Baron also prob
ably wished that he had never seer
his co-reformers G? before Attorney
Frank Z. Smith finished with him
The defense was made upon a tech
nicality, the fact that McKechnie sold
,Ae liquor as a chemist, not as a drug
gist or an apothecary.
The jury took the case about $3.50
o'clock and wrestled with it until 8
o'clock before the verdict acquitting
the defendant was brought in.
