j. l.. Amber, the Kendall tailor, re-
ports that last week, he found one
of the storm doors at his place neat
ly unhinged. 1t had been left in place
and it is believed that the job was
done with a view to subsequent burg.
larry. The hinges were removed dur.
ing the day or early evening, and as
this door is seldom used by Mr.. Am.
ber, the discovery was a fortunate
one. With this work completed, it
would have been comparatively easy
for crook to gain an entrance to
the place without giving any alarm.
Mr.. Amber found some one trying to
get in at the front door recently, but
the party got away before he could
identify him. Mr. Amber is now pre-
pared for any future visitations. and

The Lewistown delegates to the re-
union of the First Montana regiment
have returned from Bozeman, and
say that the affair was a most enjoy
able one, although the attendance
was not so large as at Helena last
year. The representatives from this
city were Judge E. X. Cheadle, John
B. Ritch and Marshall Huffine. At
the banquet, Judge Cheadle was the
toastmaster, and his address greatly
pleased the veterans. The speech OF
the evening was delivered by Justice
Holloway, of the supreme court, and
was a very fine effort. The reunion
of the First Montana next year VIII
be held at Butte.

was received at the Lamar mill this
week. IL WAS delivered by Charley

There is q prospect Of new rail-
road for La Junta. Word was re-
ceived one day last week that work
has already been commenced on the
construction Of line Of railway
from New Orleans. La. To La Junta.
to be known a. the Guthrie. Fair
view 4 Western. and that il is the
intention to push the road to COM
pletion just As fast as money and
means can do 50. This line will run
from New Orleans to Shreveport.
from Shreveport to Paris. Texas.
Paris 10 Oklahoma City. Oklahoma
City to Kingfisher. Kiel. barrow.
Taloga. Woodward. Beaver City.
and thence northwest through Raca
and Otero counties to La Junta.
The road will pass through one of
the richest agricultural and mining
countries in the United States. and
through a territory that is almost
entirely undeveloped. II will give
the Arkansas Valley direct line tn
the Gulf. as well rs one connecting
it with the lumber and farming in
terests of Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory. II is the intention of the
new road to use the Santa Fe tracks
from La Junta to Denver.
The projectors Of the new line
have sent list of questions as to
the resources Of this section which
they desire to have fully answered.
and from which they intend to pre-
pare a prospectus of the new line.
and it will be used as an advertise
ment OF the country through which
the railroad will pass. The COM
pany has already secured the right
of-way from Guthrie to Fairview
Junction. about 100 miles. and work
has already been commenced. The
selection of La Junta as the terminal
point Of this new roed will prove .
great factor in the development of
this city in . commercial vay and

WIGGING GERMAN PRINCES.
Kaiser Tells Offspring Never to For
get That They Are Hohen-
zollerns.

Princes will be princes, it seems,
and there have been times when the
kaiser has had to talk like a father to
his offspring. There is a delicious
story of one wigging which he admin
istered to them which the court is still
chuckling over, says the Chicago
Journal.
Never forget" he said solemnly, as
they stood to attention before him,
that you are Hohenzollerns and sons
OF the kaiser of Germany. But you"
he added, turning upon one who shall
not be particularized, you remember
that have my eye on you" In per-
son the kaiser is a ford mar of bare
ly middle height, with a full face,
fieshy neck, and a noticeable general
plumpness. On foot, especially when
in one Of his two score uniforms, he is
less regal than engaging; on horse
back he is quite a fine figure of a man.
Although his horses are specially
broken and trained for his use, he has
a good working seat in the saddle. To
see him go past a saluting base at the
rocking-chair canter the German cav
airy affects is to see a good type of a
military-looking man; he could pass
in a crowd for a well-to-do major
without ambitions. In spite of his
growing stoutness he takes a good
deal of exercise. In particular he
shoots and ha ,icsunc IN tho oboca
with not much less circumstance than
the duke in Browning's Flight of the
Duchess"

No fewer than 81 British peers have
no heirs to succeed them. That number
