His Troublesome Tool chest.

When the journeyman plumber went
to a Harlem apartment house to FIX a
broken steam pipe his tool chest at
racted attention. 1t was an army
knapsack that had seen service in the
Philippines.
EYES," said the plumber In response
to question by the woman who lived
in the apartment, that is an army
knapsack. My son brought it home
with him from the Philippines. When
I asked him to give it to me to i'm
provise into a tool chest he did so. l
did not want it simply because 1t was
an army knapsack or because it had
been with my son in the Philippines. l
wanted it because 1t was light, strong
and useful. After l had fixed it up it
exactly filled the idea of a tool chest
had carried in my mind for long, long
time. But" with sigh, II shall have
to give it up"
'Why?" inquired the woman Of the
house.
Because" replied the plumber, 1T
takes half my time answering Ques-
lions about the blamed thing."-New

London, March 14.-Official an
nouncement is made of the appoint
ment of Walter Hume Long, president
of the local government board, to sue
coed Mr.. Wyndham, as chief secre-
tary for Ireland.
Gerald Balfour, president of the
board of trade, succeeds Mr.. Long;
the marquis of Salisbury, lord Of the
privy seal, becomes president Of the
board of trade, retaining his former
office, and Ailwyn Fellowes, junior
lord of the treasury, is appointed as
president of the board of agriculture,
succeeding the earl of Onslow, who
recently was appointed chairman of the
committee in the house of lords.
The new cabinet appointments have
some points of interest. First and
most important for the government,
they involve no bye elections; and
second, Lord Salisbury and Ailwyn
Fellowes are both confirmed free trad
ers. whose entry into the cabinet is
not likely to be acceptable to the
Chamberlain party.
Mr.. Wyndham's medical advisers
have ordered him to take a complete
rest from all business. He has gone

ceive no correspondence.

and eating ice cream. He was doing
the bulk of the talking, and she was
an attentive and unwavering listener.
Suddenly l discovered" says the
president, "that for at least five min
utes l had been pouring ice cream
down the front of her handsome even
ing gown. She had known 1t all the
time, but had not indicated 1t by even
the CULVER Of an eyelash or by the
slightest change In the smiling, inter-
csted expression upon her face. She
had simply been too polite to inter-
rupt me by word or look or move. no
matter what happened to the gown"

MURDER CASES
JUDGE cHEApIE GOES TO MEAcH.
Err COUNTY TO HOLD TERM
OF COURT.

Judge e. X. Cheadle adjourned
court on Saturday night until March
"a, and it is not unlikely that there
will be another adjournment ON that
date. Judge Cheadle left Monday
morning for White Sulphur Springs, to
hold a term of court, Meagher county
having been added to the Tenth tudici-
al district by an act passed at the re-
cent session of the legislature. No
jury has been called as yet at White
Sulphur, and Stenographer Gibson
will not go over until his services are
needed.
The most important cases to come
up at this term of court are those Of
H. H. Meter and Alex. Oriet, who are
charged with the murder of Homer
e. Ward at the latter's ranch on
Thanksgiving eve. It is expected that
the men will demand separate trials,
and in that event, much time will be
consumed.
Story Of the Crime.
No motive for the terrible crime
has yet been generally accepted, and
the evidence against the two defend
ants is circumstantial. Wards body
was not discovered until several days
after he had been killed, and it then
appeared that he had been shot
through the window of his cabin, sit
uated "a miles northwest of White
Sulphur. He was evidently seated at
the table eating when the shot was
fired. The assassin or assassins en-
tered the place after the murder, wrap
ped the body in bed clothing, which
they then saturated with kerosene and
set on fire. The ranch stable was
also burned to the ground.
For some reason, the body was not
very badly burned, and the silent wit
ness in the cabin told the whole story
of the murder plainly, except as to the
identity of the murderers. Major
Keown, of Bozeman, was employed
by County Attorney Pease, of Gala
tin, brother-in-law of Ward, to work
on the case. Early in December he
arrested Meter and Oriet at theil
camp near Neihart, and 1t is assert
ed that Meter made some sort of con
fession in which he snouldered the
responsibility for the crime, exoner
ating Oriet from blame. That, how
ever, has never taken Official form
but Major Keown claims to have 9
strong case against the defendants
