The fall target tournament OF
the Sistersville Gun club, which
took place on their grounds here
October II and IL, proved to be
one of the best little tournaments
ever held in the Ohio valley. The
attendance was hardly what was
expected, but thirty shooters took
part, and was all that could be
handled with one Magautrap. The
shooting commenced promptly at
9 80 o'clock, and there was no in
PERMISSION, not even for lunch, un-
til nearly 5 o'clock in the evening.
We don't mean to say that they
didn't eat, for they did, but it
was at odd times, when it would
not interfere with the shooting.
The weather, especially on the
second day, was just shade off
color, but there was not single
complaint heard. The Magautrap
well, the old thing did herself
proud. The boys all wanted to
take it home with them, as they
thought it the best one they had
ever seen.
The cashiers department was in
the hands of w. B. Woodruff, Of
the local club, and there is just
one man in this whole wide
world that can do better work
than he did, and that man is the
same little Woodruff. with Il lit

The affair was under the man.
agement of Ed o. Bower, and it
is hardly necessary for us to say
that he was kept quite busy, al
though Ed says it is simply "pie"
to run a shoot, with such assist
ance as was rendered by the
"Two Johns" John F. Mallory
and John A. PENN as squad hus-
tiers, Ralph Trimble of the Win
chester company, Il. P. Priddy OF
U. NJ. C. Company, w. II. Daven-
port and D. D. Gross of the Pet
ers Cartridge company and
"Snappy" Watson of the U. M. G..
company. These boys were here,
there and everywhere at the same
time, and whenever there was any
thing to do they asked no ques-
tons but did it.
At a meeting of the club since
above shoot a resolution was
adopted making these gentlemen
honorary life members of the club,
and we hope they will all live a
thousand years.
The trade was represented by

BRING STOLEN HORSES HOME

Joe Pauly, Harry Tubbs, Warren
Tolbert and G. G. Stubs returned
Monday from the vicinity of Miles
City, where they went week or ten
days ago, to identify bunch of hors-
es which were stolen off the range
north of here and driven to that To-
cality.
They returned with thirty-one head
which they found at the head of Sew
en- Blackfoot creek, near the head of
the Big Dry.
Geo Hidore, Ed. Simms and Bill
Cherry are under arrest for the crime
as it is alleged that the animals were
found in their possession. Hidore is
in the Dawson county Jail, Cherry is
confined at Miles City, while Simms
is awaiting trial at Benton.
By addressing Hon. T. M. Everett
at Harlem, the farmers of this vicini-
ty can learn of their property, and
upon payment of the charges against
the animals they will be turned over
to their rightful owners.
The horses were driven off the range
last winter and taken to Custer coun-
ty, where they were found by stock
inspectors. Milk River Valley News.
The order of the world is moral in
every fiber. Men may do what they
please within certain limits, and be-
cause they do what they please society
seems to be in state of moral chaos,
but every word and deed reacts In
stantly on the man, and this reaction
Is SO inevitable that since time began
not one violation of any law of life has
ever escaped the penalty. He has paid
the price of his word or his deed on
the instant in it's reaction upon his
character. God does not punish men.
They punish themselves in their own
natures and in the work of their hands.

LOCKED TREASURER IN VAULT
Arizona Bandits Adopt Novel Means
of Robbing Treasury.

James P. Storm, county treasurer,
has been found locked in the steel
vault of his office, at Prescott. Ari-
iona, bound and gagged, with $4,000
missing from the cash funds of the
treasury. Mr.. Storm Aad been in the
vault fifteen hours when found by his
daughter
He says that while seated in his
office two men entered tue door with
handkerchiefs tied over their faces,
and, presenting revolver to his head,
ordered him to throw up his hands.
Storm complied, and the two men
closed the doors of the offices, pro-
duced a string of baling wire, with
which they securely bound mis- feet
and hands. They forced a handker-
chief into his mouth and pushed him
inside the vault.
After gathering up $4,000 and lei
surely ransacl1ing the Office for more
money the men closed the door Of
the vault, locked the Office and de-
parted. Storm was so securely bound
that ne was unable to release himself.
Storm was found, still bound and
gagged, on the focr CT the vault, al
most in state of nervous prOstra-
ton. The wire with which his hands
and fest had been securely hound mad

IDAHO FALLS IN LINE.
Roosevelt Will Have Plurality Of 10000
in the State.

Returns from Idaho election have
come in more slowly than at any pre-
vious time in the history of the state.
So far $4,000 votes on Republican
and Democratic candidates for presi-
dent have been heard from and 53,181
on governor. Of the presidential vote,
Roosevelt has 1882 and Parker 49,
317. Roosevelt's majority is 23,475
and his percentage of vote is seventy
two. Gooding has 34,744 votes and
Heitfeld 18,437. Gooding's majority is
16,907 and his percentage sixty
three.
The vote this year has fallen far be-
low the registration. The latter was
about $4,000. Two years ago, Republi-
can and Democratic vote on governor
was $685.. So nearly as can be esti-
mated there is an increase of 12 per
cent on Democratic and Republican
presidential votes. This would indi.
cate a total of 64,S00 for Roosevelt
and Parker in the state. If Roosevelt's
percentage of seventy-two be carried
through he will have a lead over
Parker of 28,500, while Gooding's lead
over Heitfeld would be 10000.
