stock offered was in poor shape, but
ordinarily even animals of that kind
may be sold without actual loss to
the owners. Now, however, 1t would
seem that nothing can be dispose1

The Gazette's informant talked declar-
ed that they were through with the
stock business and purposed selling
such animals as they still owned in

TO TEST LACEY LAW.
State Game Warden Seizes Ducks
Shipped from Utah. {

An instance has arisen in this state
which will be utilized for the purpose
of testing the national law for the
protection of game animals and song
birds, popularity known as the Lacey
bill. Under the provisions of this
act shipment from one state or ter
ritory into another of any game ami
mails or. birds protected by the laws
of the state or territory in which they
we're Kill d is prohibited. In the pres
ent case several dozens of ducks killed
in Utah were shipped into Montana,
consigned to a firm at Helena. Act
ing on the request of the Utah game
warden, Warden Scott of this state
seized the ducks and is holding them,
subject to the directions of the Utah
official.
For the evasion or violation of the
law it is provided that the shipper,
upon conviction, shall pay a fine not
to exceed 5000. The consignee and
the carrier, which in this instance is
the Utah & Northern Railroad com
pany, are liable to a like fine.

SHE DECLARES HERSELF.
Mrs. Cody Will Not Be Cast
OFF.

Almost every one of the larger news
papers of the country has been run
ming the North Platte, Neb., date line
in conspicuous manner during the last
week or so. Some of the mor enter
prising have sent their own reporters
and photographers there and their
"stories" are embellished with half
tone cuts. OF course, Mrs. w. F.
Cody is the magnet that has so sud-
denly drawn the attention OF the
scribes to the little Nebraska town.
Since Buffalo Bill" has begun his
divorce proceedings many persons for
the first time learned that he was
not the sole constituent of the Cody
family. Some of the articles appear
ing in the newspapers are suggestive
of considerable taking, while others
apparently are bare recitals of things
learned by the correspondents.
The following appeared in the Min
n~eapolis Journal of last Tuesday. 1t
must be accepted as confirmatory Of
the report that Mrs. Cody intends to
fight the petition of her husband:
HE shall not cast me off, as a man
does a mistress, who has wearied
him. declared Mrs. William +. Cody,
| whose husband has brought suit for
divorce.
HE wants to take a younger wife
than l." she continued. "He is tired
of me because I am old. He prefers
younger women to me. Then l am
told that he wants a son, and all the
sons 1 have borne him are dead"
Mrs. Cody declares that the charges
made in her husbands petition for
divorce are utterly groundless, save
that she has sometimes objected to
entertaining his friends at her home
because these entertainments were Of

ais.
When Colonel Cody was sober, his
wife says, his treatment of her was
usually kind. Only in one particular
did he fail in his regard for her; on
his many tours abroad he left her be-
hind, pleading, for the most part, that
he could not afford to take her with
him.
ssBut he would often take other
women" she declares. "There have
been many of them, and some have
cost him a great deal of money. But
they were young"

EXPERIENCE OF BILLINGS MAN
At CHICAGO.
pocKETED A HEAVY LOSS
Forced to Sell Sheep for Less Than
They Cost Him-others
Fare Even Worse.

Since his return from Chicago, a
few days ago, at least one man in
Billings is watching with more than
ordinary interest the efforts OF the
South Dakota congressman, Martin,
to get at the facts in connection with
the "beef combine" and the prevail
ing low prices for stock on the diff
ferent western markets. MOdesty i'm
PEELED him to request suppression OF
his name, but he has no objection
to having publicity given to his ex-
perience with the men who buy fat
animals at the Chicago stockyards.
The good prices that obtained last
fall for finished sheep induced him to
become a feeder and he placed a
large band on alfalfa a short distance
up the valley. After they had been
rough fed he shipped them to st. Paul
and rounded them out on screenings.
The venture proved so successful that
he concluded to repeat it, only this
time he selected lambs. In due time
the animals were taken to st. Paul
and fed on mill feed until they were,
to use his own words, rolling fat"
He received an offer for the lot at
figures that would have enabled him
to come out about even, but this he
declined, as he was not handling
sheep for the pleasure the business
afforded. A man who makes a spe-
cialty of feeding sheep on a large scale
advised him to take the lot to Chi
cago, saying that good stock was al.
ways in demand.
Pocketed a Loss.
Acting on his own judgment n on
the advice of his friend he loaded the
lambs and went with them to Chicago.
Arrived there he found the market
glutted and nobody caring to buy.
AT first it was impossible to receive
an offer of any kind, but finally a
buyer was found to submit a bid. AT
ter some hesitancy it was accepted
and when the man from Billings fgur-
ed up the results he found that he
was loser exactly half a dollar on
each animal. in the bunch.
Even Worse Cases.
In relating his observations to The
Gazette the gentleman said that the
conditions existing on the Chicago
market were beyond doubt the worst
ever known. During his stay cattle
sheep and hogs arrived by the thou
sands. The hog men did not appear tc
have much trouble in disposing Of
their stuff, but the men who hao
sheep and cattle were badly off, indeed
BY way of illustrating the situation
he cited the case of a man who was
there with 100 steers that he hac
been fattening for about 10 months
The animals averaged LOO pounds
each. In spite of their excellence hi
was utterly unable to secure a bid OF
them and when last seen was dicuss
ing the advisability of reloading hi!
steers and taking them home.
Others were less unfortunate, as the.
managed to sell, although at a loss il
