.He Was Behind Him.

The adven: of Decoration day caused
Admiral Dewey at a recent dinner to
praise the bravery of the American
troops during the civil war.
"Both sides We're brave" he said.
North and south, soldiers and sailors.
And the bravery Of the recruits was
q thing to DC seen to be believed.
"There used to be circulated, tho, a
good story about a Connecticut re-
cruit. This young man, after he had
gotten initiated, fought heroically, but
in his first engagement he was very
nervous
"A chum of his was in the line ahead
of him, and when the bullets began to
fly the chum began to dodge.
"Thereupon the recruit shouted, ex-
citedly:

Boy Profits on Loot, Pardoned.

Chicago.-YeSterday morning Willie
Havens faced prison as a thief.
Last night the same Willie Havens
faced a good job with a big packing
corporation, a raise in salary, the
trust of the employer he had deceived,
and, perhaps, the opportunity Of win
ming back Lillian.
Lillian is the girl for love of whom
Willie stole. He was a messenger for
the Independent Packing company
tanning $1,000 in checks and $500 in
money.
Willie was not inspired by the wild
dreams of "Injun killing. He Just
wanted to be a farmer and have a
happy home, and Lillian. He was
earning only $40 a week. So he took
his employers funds and fed to North
Dakota. There he bought a farm,
stocked it with a COW, a. horse, and
chickens, started in to build his chap
Ply home," and then he SEM for Lii
liam.
But the detectives followed the In
evitable ''girl in the case and caugh.
Willie just as his dream was about to
be realized.
Then Lillian was sent to a nunnery.
Willie was taken to Jail. But the Of
ficers of the big packing company were
startled when they confronted the
youthful farmer-embezzler Upon his
return to Chicago.
Here's your money" said Willie.
Here's the $4,000 in checks. The POI
licemen AVE it. And they'll give you
the $500 in money I took with 10 per
cent interest. I didn't squander it. I
made money with it. And I'd have paid
you back whether you caught me or
not in time
why, you're a bigger financier than
a thief" said the employers.
So the members of the big corpora
ton forgave Willie. They didn't tell
him he had done wrong to steal. Will
lie knew it. He will never steal again.
The officers of the big corporation
know that he now realizes the enor-
nifty of his mora wrong. But they
are going to give him a chance to
earn that farm and happy home, and
maybe-Who knows?
Laborer Leaves Big Estate to Charity.

1t appears that Geater was the own
er of valuable coal lands 100 miles east
of Pittsburg. which are being oper-
ated under a long time lease by the

The will bequeaths the entire estate
to charity. Altho no inventory has
been taken, 1t is believed that the lands
are worth hundreds Of thousands OF

Attorney General Kirby recently re- eeived a communication asking for his opinion as to whether marriage license may be issued on Sunday with out violating the law and whether a marriage consummated on tae same day under the license would be valid. Although the matter is one that would appear from the nature of things to interest many people, the question had never been asked the attorney general before nor has an opinion on the mat ter ever been given out. In answer ing the question: MT Kirby said: Tt might be a violation of law fo. clerk to issue a marriage license on Sunday. but the license itself so issued would not be void nor would a marriage con- summated%on Sunday under such H. cense be void. Ii is true that the sta ute says Marriage Is considered in law q civil contract, to which the con sent of the parties capable in law of contracting is necessary (Kirby's Di- gest, Section STD; also that trdinary contracts entered into on Sunday are void.

Young Man Attempts Suicide


 Frank King, well-known young farmer and merchant. who lives near Helena, went to that city recently, and became intoxicated. While in that condition he took possession of horse belonging to Dr. Russwurm and took a wild ride over the city. Returning to the business section he was stopped and Dr. Russwurm, not ins the exhausted condition of his horse. gave King a severe beating. King was arrested but gave bond and later went out into the country to the home of his brother, where about midnight he drank a quantity of lauda- mum with suicidal intent. The young man was very ill two weeks ago and has admitted that the cause of the illness was laudanum. Despondency caused by financial reverses is the cause of the young mans desire to end his life
