Charging F. A. Whittier, superin-
tendent of the boys training school,
not only with having brutally whipped
and beaten inmates of that institu-

THIRTY-FOUR HORSES BURNED
Only Twenty Animals Saved From
$4,000 Barn Fire.

Thirty-four horses were burned to
death in a fire which destroyed the
barn of o. A. Narverud at Mime
apolis. Firemen and stable en-
ployes succeeded in rescuing twenty
horses from the flames, but the re-
mainder were burned. The origin of
the fire is not known.
In, addition to the horses ten big
vans were destroyed. Mr.. Narverud
estimates his loss at $4,000.
Evelyn and the SimpIon Pass.
The SimplOn pass was a famous
highway of travel long before Napo-
leon constructed the highroad. Milton
came home that way from his grand
tour, and so did John Evelyn. The lat
ter traveller went in fear of his life,
not only expecting avalanches to fall
on him, but being apprehensive lest
bears and wolves should issue from
the caves in the precipices and assail
him. The only actual harm which hap
pened, however. was that his compan-
ions dog killed a goat belonging to one
of the peasants and that heavy COM
pensation had to be paid-"a pistole,"
says the diary, ''for the goat and ten
more for attempting to ride away

RANCHER MISSING
SINCE FEB. 4
NElGHBOlsS THINK HE HAS BRO
KEN THRU ICE AND IS
DROWNED,

]. E. Evans, rancher liv.
ing about half way up the lake on
the north shore was in town Monda
and states that his neighbor. Lou
Conners, has been missing for the
past three weeks, and it is feared
that he has been drowned in the
lake. Conners was q very reckless
character and would persist in tray
cling the ice between his place and
town when it was i'll dangerous
condition. The last seen OF him wa
about the fourth Of February when
he started out for home across the
ice.
Mr.. Evans states that the neigh
oors have warned him repeatedly to
keep off the ice until it WAS safe
but he only ignore / them. Just a
lew nights before he was missed he
crossed the bay to spend the even
ing at the Evans home and on his
way over broke through the ice four
times. This did not worry him in
the least. He seemed to think that
he was immune from drowing and
went back the same way.
Connors was very eccentric fell
low and at first when Le did not
show up they did not pay any at
tentlon to it, because if he was alive
and found out that some one was
lcoklng for him, or worrying about
him, he would ridicule them as he
Always did when he was warned to
Keep off the ice, SO they kept their
distance. But getting aniouxs after
a couple weeks, investigated at his
cabin, which showed no traces of
him having been there for some
time. Everything was just as he
had left it previous to going to
town.
Conners has a fine 100 acre ranch
along the lake shore and a good ca
bin, so the neighbors have notified
relatives in Washington of his alb
sence, so oshey can come here and loo
after his interests. If he has
drowned in the lake, as it is though
that he undoubtedly has, there will
be no chance of knowing positively
until spring, when the body will
probably rise to the surface.
Later-His hat was found frozen
in the ice

NARROW ESCAPE
FROM DROWNING

What might have resulted in d
double drowning occurred yesterday
afternoon, when Harold Whitestone
and Thos. Freshour broke through
the ice of the Flathead river as they
were trying to cross just below the
long bridge
Mr.. Whitestone, who was walking
slightly in advance, suddenly broke
through, and although the water is
very deep at that point he managed
to keep from going clear under, and
with one or two efforts succeeded
in getting back onto the solid ice In
the meantime MI. Freshour, in an
,ort to get nearer his unfortunate
companion, had broke through, but
because of the nature of the ice,
saved himself from a thorough wet
ling by laying back on the ice and
only his legs to the knees were
wet.
Both finally reached shore and
came to town, where they changed
clothes, and seem but little the
worse for their chilly experience

DAVIS FOLLOWED
BY FIRE F|END

c. E. Davis, now conducting sec
ond hand store i'll Kalispell, seems
to be having an unusual streak of
i'll luck since he left this town to
go into business at the county seat.
1t is not many weeks ago that their
place of business caught fire and
his partner, Hector Noble, was Ser
louSly burned. Their stock and
building was considerable damaged
They moved into building across
the street to conduct their business
while their former place was being
repaired, and last Thursday night thi
place caught fire, completely de-
stroying the whole building and
stock, and a building alongside of it.
The fire was discovered about 1
a. M, when passer by noticed the
smoke rolling out of the store occu-
pied by Noble & Davis. They turned
in the alarm and ran upstairs and
aroused the people who were occu-
pying that part of the building. The
were nearly suffocated with smoke
and it was with considerable diff
ficulty that the women were rescued
from the burning building. Had the
fire not been discovered when it
was the result would have been fata
for the occupants sleeping on the
upper floor.
