who have been visiting with Mr..
and Mrs. j. F. O'Brien, purchas-
ed the first of the week the
Richard Mcleod 80 acres in 81
20. The consideration we under
stand was $4,000.
A. J. Petticrew of Washington,
a relative Of j. Fred Bachman,
arrived this week and is at the
Bachman home west of Roman.
Mr.. Petticrew brought with him
IL head of fine work horses, be-
sides other farming implements,
and is prepared to engage in
farming on the Flathead on an
extensive scale.
A visit this week to St. Igna-
titus demonstrated the fact that
that town is forging right to the
front. Quite a number of neat
substantial cottages have beer
built there this year, an opera
house which would do credit to
a much larger place has been
built, and the signs of prosperity
are to be seen on every hand.
The Mission, as it is called local.
ly, is a lively town, and with the
advent Of an electric line will be-
come one or the best trading
points in the Mission valley. The
people living there are live wires
and that town is to be taken into
consideration hereafter when dis
cussing the material growth Of
the country.
G. Pendray, the N. P. agent at
Ravalli, of whom it can be said
there is no more obliging and &C.
commodating agent to be found
anywhere, has the worst case Of
swell head, so Mrs. Pendray
says, in the Flathead country.
One day last week he got up real
early-for a wonder and Shout
dering his rifle started to the
hills east of Ravalli intent on
killing his winters meat. It was
a joke when he started, so far as
his friends were concerned, but
it was no joke when he came in
with a big buck deer. He was
not satisfied that it would last
him through, so in a day or two
away he went again, and this
time they did laugh, thinking
that lightning never strikes
twice in the same place. But it
did, and in he came with another.
Mrs. Pendray says he needs a
big strong hoop to keep his head
from assuming such proportions
that he can not get into the sta
ton.

mountains, on the south by Ra-
valli and on the west as far as
the farmers transact business at
the Mission and Ravalli. The
Dixon exchange district will in.
clude all that territory on the
north to Sloan's Ferry, east as
far as the farmers transact bust.
ness at Dixon, south to the noun.
tains and west to Perma.
Apparatus and equipment used
at all these exchanges will be of
the latest and most improved
four party, selective ringing
type. In other words, there can
be eight farmer telephones con.
nected with the central office on
one metallic line, and when CEN
tralcalls any one of the subscrib-
ers on said line, only one other
telephone on the entire line will
ring, and when a subscriber calls
central not any of the other tele-
phones on the line are rung,
which practically eliminates all
code ringing and ringing of other
subscribers telephones when
they are not wanted. Service
will be continuous, day and night.
There are now more than 300
contracts signed for this service
in the various districts of the
Flathead and within a year there
will be more than 1000 subscrib-
ers being served by this COM
pany.

Resolutions OF Respect.

We, the members of the Powell
Sunday school class, are called upon
to bow our heads in humble submis-
sion to the will of Almighty God in
calling from our midst and fellow
ship our beloved brother in Christ
and classmate, William II. Moore, be-
ing the Oldest and one of the charter
members of the Powell Sunday school
class. We will ever cherish his kind
and loving disposition, and It behooves
us as Christian men and women to
emulate as far as possible his daily
walk, for In him we could see the
Christ spirit, and we cannot bring
this memoir to a close without using
the language of the Psalmist, MARK
the perfect man and behold the up
right for the end of that man Is
peace" and we sincerely believe that
our loss is his eternal gain, and our
hearts say within us let our last days
be like his, and we express our heart
felt sympathy to Mrs. Moore and
family in their time of sorrow and
affliction.

OLD DIRECTORS

Court House Needs Such an
Appliance.
OLD PEOPLE SOREly TAXED
Expense Would Not be Very
Heavy.
Elevator Could be Installed In Place
of the Stairs on the North Side of
The Corridor with n Small Expen-
diturc.

The county commissioners have un-
der consideration an Improvement in
the court house, one which has been
needed for many years for the ac-
commodation of the people who are
forced to attend to business on the
upper floors of the temple of justice.
1t is an elevator running from the
basement to the third floor.
A great many OF the people of the
county are, during the year. forced
to climb the stairs from the base
ment to the third floor and, with
some, this is a very irksome task.
Particularly with old people is this
true. There are four flights of stairs
from the basement to the third floor
and two of these are quite long.
BY the time an aged person makes
the assent. he is almost completely
out of breath and completely tagged.
The exertion is entirely too much for
persons who hre subject TO heart
disease and they should not be ask
ed to make the climb.
Particularly during the trial Of cas-
es in the court room Is II noticed that
an elevator Is needed Old persons
are frequently called upon to attend
court as witnesses in cases. they must
attend the first session and be ready
to respond when their names are call
ed, this will necessitate at least four
trips n day up and down the stairs
and the county should not require
them to make this over exertion.
The commissioners figure that an
elevator could be installed without a
great outlay in money. 1t could be
installed in place of the stairway on
the north side of the corridor, which
Is seldom used. This would not nec-
essitate the disturbing of any of the
officers and would leave the stairway
on the south for use when the ele-
vator would not be running for the
accommodation of the people when
large crowds gather in the court room.
The elevator could. probably be OPP
Grated by the two janitors during the
busy hours of the day, so that little
additional expense would be incurred
for operating. The machinery could
be installed i'm the garret of the build
ing which is quite spacious and would
be entirely out of sight, so as not to
mar the beauty OF the upper corri-
dor and dome.
The whole expense TO the county
would be slight both for installation
and operation and II Is pre- bable the
much needed Improvement will be
made within the near future.

Wants to Arrange to Care
For His Child.
is GRANTED A FEW DAYS
Will Arrange to Give Bond
To The Court.
Unusual Complication I'm the Case
Arises-Questlon of Marriage Rela-
Located.

Samuel Drollsbaugh, who was ar
rested in Decature Illinois, on a war
rant charging him with non-support
of his four-years-old child, Robert,
was returned here Tuesday evening
by Humane officer j. w. Ulsh and
promptly arraigned in Justice c. II.
Conley's court. He pleaded guilty
to the charge and saked for time to
arrange for a bond to insure his pay
ment of a certain sum, each month,
for the support of the child. Time
was given him and unless he sue
ceeds in giving the bond he will be
bound over to the grand jury as
action was begun under felony
charge.
In this case rather a peculiar con-
hition has arisen. Drollsbaugh and
the mother of the boy lived together
as man and wife in Caledonia for a
number of years. Later she deserted
him and in few months he disap-
peared also II is said they resided
together in Centralia, Illinois, where
the represented themselves as man
and wife. 1t is claimed that this act
in the state of Illinois Is equivalent
W IL anu lilul ltle WOIIlun
is now the common law wife. Later
Drollsbaugh left Centralia and went
to Decatur where he was employed as
a switchman on a railroad He states
that he has not seen his wife since
he left Centralia and does not know
where she is.
Drollsbaugh now wants to Secure
bond for the payment of the monthly
installments for the care of his child
and to indemnify the bond he wishes
to give as security a tract of land
which he owns near Caledonia. 1t
will be impossible for him to deed this
land in trust as security without the
signature of his wife and he cannon
locate her.
1t is claimed by some that their
living together as man and wife in
Illinois does not constitute a COM
non law marriage, but others claim
that II does so constitute for the rea
son that Illinois is not a code state
but Is under the old common law,
while in ohio, a code has been adopt
ed and the common law isno longer
operative.
Drollsbaugh expresses love for his
child and declares he wants to pro-
vide for him.

ATMOSPHERE WET and DRY

Oratory of all kinds was dispensed
so literally in the common pleas court
room Tuesday afternoon that the cir
cult judges were suffeited with II
and after a time they wore that
bored expression. When 1t began to
get funny and with each succeeding
"bootlegging" case a broader and
broader smile playeu over the coun-
tenances of the court and attorneys
until the smile became audible.
The weather conditions within the
court room alternated between
drought and torrent. Sometimes II
was so dry that the windows ratified
and the furniture creaKed. Then it
became so damp that one might easi-
ly imagine he was in London on fog
gy day and all this time the court was
inwardly praying that the mists might
be rolled away.
Just as days are set apart for GER
tain people and classes at a county
fair. so Tuesday was set aside as
"bootlegger's day" in the circuit court.

Nothing is too small for the atten-
tion of the Pasteur Institute in Paris.
provided it is connected in any way
with infection. 1t appears that the
canary suffers from sort of marsh
fever, communicated to it by an in
sect known as the codex. DR. Roux,
head of the institute, has told the
Academy Of Science that the bacillus
of this fever has been isolated and a
serum made to inoculate other canar-
les. Canaries vaccinated with this
serum proved comparatively immune
against the attacks of the codex, while
non-inoculated birds suffered severely
when attacked.
