WRONG PETER FOUND
GUILTY
COUNTY ATTORNEY ASSERTS HE
INTENDED TO TRY ANDERSON
AND NOT DUMPHY.

Asserting that he had really intend
ed to have Peter Anderson tried for
gambling instead of Peter Dumphy
after the "pingangie' game over the
Montana saloon was raided on the
evening Of January T. 1909, County At
torney Mulroney yesterday sought and
obtained permission in the district
court to file information direct
against the first named man. The
county official will prosecute Anderson
on charge of conducting a gambling
house.
AS will be remembered, Dumphy was
found guilty Of gambling by a jury in
the district court several weeks ago
but has not yet been sentenced his
attorneys having filed motion in ar
rest of judgment. 1t is understood that
nothing further will be done in his case
until after the trial of Anderson, who
was arrested recently in Spokane by
Sheriff Graham as the result of a
chance meeting in the street. A war
rant for AndcrsOn's arrest has been
out for several months.

RAPELJE TO RECOVER
IN M|SS0ULA
INJURED OFFICIAL THINKS THIS
CITY is AS GOOD A RE-
SORT AS ANY.

Superintendent Rapelje of the North
ern Pacific is sufficiently strong to
be able to stroll about the city and
yesterday he made brief calls upon
some of his personal friends in town.
He was cordially welcomed wherever
he went, and if good wishes, heartily
extended, can do it, Mr.. Rapelje will
be we'll soon. He is, however, weak
from his long confinement, and it will
be some time before he RECEIVERS his
complete strength. But it is admitted
that his recovery is little short of mi
raculous, and Mr.. Rapelje himself is
not inclined to complain because he
cannot jump into the harness all at
once, though it is irksome for him to
be away from his desk. Mr.. Rapelje
was chatting in the office of j. NJ.
Rhoades yesterday morning when a
Missoulian reporter found him. In re-
Spouse to a question, he said:
Il am feeling SO much better that
l have decided that l can get well just
as fast in Missoula as 1 can any
where, and | have cancelled the ar
engagements for the trip that [ was to
take to the springs. | had planned to
leave Tuesday morning, but l didn't
really want to go, and the night be-
fore 1 said that l hoped it would
snow Tuesday so l couldn't start. And
the snow came. This morning the sun
was so bright that l didn't want to
leave it to go to the springs, where
the mountains are so near that the
frost stays longer than it does here.
SO / cancelled the order for the car
and made the cancellation permanent.
This place is good enough for me-"
Surely, a man who talks that way
will get well quickly. Mr.. Rapelje
says he will be back at work the first
of May; but that is rather soon, con-
sidering what he has been through.

TO UPHOLD
NEGATIVE
FORSYTH GIVEN CHOICE OF SIDES
IN CASTING OF LOTS IN
HIGH SCHOOL DEBATE.

The Forsyth high school debating
team is to uphold the negative side Of
the question, Resolved, That the
United states should maintain an Of
fensive as well as d defensive navy"
This was finally determined yesterday
afternoon when, in the presence of
chosen Representatives of both Forsyth
and Boulder, the two remaining con-
testants, Dr. O. J. Craig cast the lots
for the coveted side.
The dispute arose out of the fact
that both Forsyth and Boulder wanted
the negative in the final contest, and
since the laws of the organization de-
mand that lots be cast in case of such
a dispute, such decision was made at
the order of the president of the
league, Professor Snoddy. Boulder
named as its representative Miss Alta
Barbour who is a student at the uni
versity, while Edward Wickes repre-
scented Forsyth
Forsyth probably wanted the mega
tive more than did Boulder for the
team there has won every time in the
preliminaries on this side and has had
no chance to prepare on the affirma-
tive. Boulder, however, has won twice
on the negative and once on the af-
firmatiVe, all on unanimous votes, and
the affirmative victory being the last,
so that it is as well up on one side
as the other, and its wish for the neg
alive was caused probably by a de-
sire to get the better of Forsyth At
any rate, Forsyth won and will de-
bate the negative in the final debate
here in May.

CAUGHT ON THE RUN
ABOUT TOWN
PEOPLE YOU KNOW AND SOME
OF THE THINGS THEY
DO AND SAY.

There will be 10000 eastern brook
trout fry here today from the state
hatchery at Anaconda
THOUSANDS for distribution In the
OF TROUT. local streams Presi-
dent Darbee Of the
Western Montana Anglers club was
notified yesterday of their coming,
and the club will today make arrange
ments for their distribution. This Is
the first of several shipments of fry
that the local club will distribute from
the Anaconda hatchery. and Walter
NJ Bickford has arranged to send half
million from the Clark hatchery at
Columbia Gardens. These will be APP
pOrtioned amongst the local streams
as seems best after consultation with
the expert fishermen Of this part Of the
state and with the game wardens. The
anglers club will have a busy season,
and it is planning for even more work
of this sort next year. President
Darbee and Secretary Reinhard have
had considerable correspondence this
spring with the hatchery people and
with others who have had experience
in this work. and they are acquiring
STOCK OF information that makes
them particularly desirable citizens
THE fry will be planted where they
will do the most good" said Presi-
dent Darbee the other day. "Our
idea of stocking the streams Is to
have the trout placed where they viii
afford the most amusement for fish
ermen; there are many local fishermen
who cannot go to the remote streams,
and l think that the best place Is in
the streams near to town for most of
the fry that we plant this year"

spoke on The Interest of the Uni
Nersity in the Proper Control of the
Saloon He lamented the fact that
some reformers, in their zeal for over
throwing the power of liquor, exag-
gerate their statements to a degree
which sometimes causes a loss of con-
fidence in their efforts He spoke from
scientific standpoint, showing how

should be particularly active against
an agent which has been proven to
have an effect directly opposite.
