Disaster Follows Playing "A Game of
which One Knows Nothing.
The lamb who thinks he can fitch
money out of Wall street is permitted
to succeed In his operations only until
he has enough to make it worth the
while for a professional to get up and
take 1t from him, says writer in
Everybody's. What possible chance
las gambler in such a gams as thls2
Would he play poker with no chance
of seeing the cards dealt, or of know
ing how many cards his opponents
draw, and with more than suspicion
that the cards are marked2 Yet he
does worse than that when he deals In
stocks on a margin through tho New
York stock exchange. Does he ever
realize that the winnings in the game
played there depend on his own losses,
and that the broker who receives his
money on margin knows, not thinks,
ror suspects, but knows, that In the
end he will inevitably join the great
majority before him who have played
and lost?
"If 1t were not against the rules Of
the New York stock exchange" ex-

erage house, I'D bucket every order

do you mean to say that your GUS

than right in their guessesf' was the
surprised question of Mr.. Lamb.
Sure" was the reply, with an In

likely to lose, he Is sure to lose. u

Not much! That was too easy; ant

Unconstitutional.

Lincoln, Neb.-Compulsory contribu-

constitutional, according to an opinion
filed in the federal court by Judge t. c..
Munger. The opinion strikes at the
very heart of the guaranty idea. Gov
ernor Shallenberger, who had expected
to call special session of the legis-

the scrutiny of the court, has given
up the idea, saying that the opinion
leaves the state absolutely no ground
for compulsory law. The case will
be appealed to the supreme court OF
the United States.

PATRIARCH OF HERD
EXPIRES IN
CORRAL
OLDEST AND ONE OF LARGEST
BUFFALO DIES IN PENS
AT RAvALLl.

The oldest and one of the largest
Dulls OF the Pablo herd died in the
loading pens at Ravalli yesterday af-
ternoon. The animal refused to be
loaded into a car Monday afternoon
and successfully defeated the efforts
of the leaders to get him aboard by
lying down in the entrance to the
loadlng chute and refusing to move.
There the animal lay until he died
Ihe patriarch of the herd manifest
ed a spirit of fight when the first at
tempt to load him was made, then his
fighting inclinations gave place to
stubborness, after he had had a fierce
encounter with another bull of about
his size. So far as could be learned
by the leaders there was no physical
allnent to cause the buffalo's death
and he had not been injured in any
way. He lay for almost "a hours,
however, refusing to eat or drink wa
ter, and death soon claimed him. This
animal was estimated to be at least
rs years of age and. despite his years,
was one of the finest specimens of
the herd. His death means a big
loss.
This morning the freighters start
ed from Ravalli back to Roman with
the hauling crates and were scheduled
to arrive at the roundup corral dur
ing the afternoon The remaining
eight buffalo will be loaded and
hauled to Ravali today. These will
be loaded on the cars as soon as pos
sible and the shipment will be start
ed on its way toward Canada, prob
ably Thursday afternoon.

BRANDENBURC FREED
OF LARCENY
CHARGE
THOUGH WRITER is ACQUITTED,
HE is REARREsTED ON
KIDNAPPING CHARGE.

New York. June 29--Although
Brougftcn Brandenburg was ac-
quilted here today on the charge of
grand larceny in connection with the
sale Of an alleged spurious letter of
Grover Cleveland to the New York
Times, he had only a few minutes O,
freedom. Before leaving the court
room, he was re-arrested and will be
taken to ST. Louis next week for
trial on charge of kidnapping his
stepson, James Shepard Cabanne Ill.
The maximum penalty for 1ipnaping
IN Missouri Is life Imprisonment. The
author was taken back to the Tombs
IN default of $4,000 bail to await the
arrival of the Missouri officers.
The verdict was reached by the
jurors within a few minutes after the
presiding justice had charged them
that the question of the genuineness
of the Cleveland signature was inn
material and that even the question
of the genuineness of the article was
only secondary consideration. The
main consideration, he told them, was
whether the defendant had stolen $500,
the price paid for the article by the
New York Times
The kidnapping, which Brandenburg
admits, occurred shortly after the
writer jumped his bail while under
indictment for the sale of the Cleve-
land article. He was found in San
Francisco with the boy, whom he had
picked up in st. Louis. Branden-
burg declared he was justified in
taking the boy because the boys ia
ther. with whom he had been tenn
porarily left, had not lived up to an
agreement as to the child treat
ment.
