Conrad Town Lots Go Like
 Hot. Cakes

Word has been received here that
 town lots at Conrad have been going like hot cakes at miners boarding house. It Is said that there is not one left in the original townsite and that more land is being plated and will be put on the market by the towusite com hauy iu a short time. F. A. Singer,
 who is manager of the townsite compa- ny as well as of the Conrad mining companies, has had his time almost completely taken mp the last few days with the real estate business. Many buildings are going up at Conrad and many others are waiting for lumber. All the activity, however, in the Con rad district Is not confined to the real estate transfers and town building. Teams are kept busy hauling ore from the Montana mine to the lake, where 1t is transferred to the stage for Caribou. As the development of the mining continues, ore ledges are to be larger in size and rich CT than has heretofore been suspected. Particularly encouraging has been the development on the Montana and Venus claims.

Robbed the Poor OF Large Sum.

A recent dispatch from Chicago
says: A state of affairs more start
ling and shocking than had been
previously limited at in connection
with the collapse of 1.-THE Milwaukee
Avenue State Bank was revealed
last night when it became known
that through barefaced forgery
President Paul Stensland had plum
dered his own bank systematically
through a period of years. There
has been discovered in President
Stensland's safety deposit vault box
series of memoranda detailing how
the bank was looted. The amount
thus taken from the savings of o.
600 poor families, as set down in
Stensland's handwriting, is $1,OO3,-
600. The money went to support
Stensland's real estate speoulations,
his. cooperative building business,
and his fine household at Irvine
Park. According to the police, some
of it also went directly for luxuries
for certain woman or women
friends Of Stensland's.

wanted her to shoot first, but there
was no first shot. A volley struck
Davis. Some say che did fire the
first shot.
The presence of Governor Hey
ward and the work of a few men
prevented horrible burning. A
lynching is great blot on the coun-
try, but the burning would have
been worse.
Davis was perfectly cool. Just
before he was shot some one gave
him a cigarette, telling him he had
better enjoy it as it would be his
last.
Davis said, 81 know it, boss" He
gave his watch to a negro, Len Will
liams, who was present.
Governor Hayward came to town
tonight and will spend the night
here. He deeply deplores the affair,
but did all that it was possible to do
to prevent it. AS he said in his plea
to the crowd, he could have sent
troops, but he came alone as the
Governor of the State to beg them
to let the law take its course. He
did not know the negro had been
caught when he left Columbia and
could not have sent troops, as he did
not know where the negro was likely
to be caught.
Hundreds and hundreds are visit
ing the spot where the riddled body
of Davis swings. The shots seem
to be we'll directed, as the rope was
not shot in two.
