Strong Case Against
Private Moore.

Charges that Constable Geo farrell. Of
Chesterfield county, refuses to serve
military warrants because in his judg-
ment the offenses are not sufficiently
serious. We're made under oath yester-
day By Captain William C. Herbert. of
company A. First Infantry. This
statement was made in connection
with the trial of a member of Cap
tain Herberts company by court-mar-
tai for failure TO attend the encamp-
mcnt at Culpeper.
The company commander said that
he had had great deal of trouble
with Private Clarence r. Moore. who
seems to have been most unrulv and
rnsoliderly militiaman. He refused to
attend drills but when warrants for
his arrest were issued Constable Jar
rell declined to serve them, so CAPTAIN
herbert stated. because he did not
think the charge was material WHY
the officer should decline to do his
duty and use his own Judgment in
such matter, Captain Herbert was

After tho trial of only three Of the
1orty-two accused men OF the First
Infantry had been completed. the
court martial adjourned to meet again

Monday, September IS at 1890 \ NJ.
Asked as 10 the reason for this ac-
uon, Major Clinton l.. Wright said
there were certain Irregularities re-
sarding the preparation of some of the
papers, and'.il was to give time for
the corrections of these that adjourn
ment was had
The case of Private Moore. who was
the last prisoner tried, presented such
bad aspect that Judge Advocate Jen-
nings c. Wise asked that the fun pcn.
atty of the law be enforced upon
him AS evidence that the court re-
6aroed MS ofIense as serious, Lieutcn-
ant-Colonel Salononsky gave direc-
lions that the man should be pu, un-

court when IL reconVenes.
Troublesome Man
Captain Herbert said that Private
Moore had always given trouble In the
company. He had attended only M.
teen or eighteen drills since he ioincd
the company two and one-half years
ago He had repeatedly announced ,c
his comrades that he did no, intend
to drill. and that he could run his
own affairs.
On the nigh, before the regimen,
left for camp, Captain Herbert; heinz
advised that Private Moore had an,

NANCY COYOTE
AFFECTS fine
DROVE HOGS

Casting bread upon the waters
and having it return seems to apply
to other things than literally some
thing to eat. At least, this is what
B. Martin, farmer living east of
Gill believes.
This reflection on the part of Mr..
Martin is occasioned by the fact that
he has to dip 60 hogs that have be-
come afflicted with the mango in
the most peculiar manner.
Many moons ago, in the hope of
Kidding that section of the county
of coyotes and wolves, the ranchmen
caught a number of coyotes, exposed
them to the mango and turned them
loose These animals in turn gave
the disease to others of their kind,
with the result that there was a gen.
eral thinning out of the pedatory
animals.
A few weeks ago a coyote was
shot. When an attempt was made
to remove its hide it was found to
be afflicted with mango. The car
cass was left lying where it had
fallen and later it is supposed that
the hogs We're attracted to it and
became afflicted from the corpse.

FAREWELL
OH! DIPPERS,
- FAREWELL
Individual Drinking Cups Will be
Fashion in Greeley At
Early Date

Have you laid in supply OF pa
per drinking cups?
1t is pretty nearly time, II you
haven't, since the new law passed
BY the last general assembly abol-
ishes all public drinking cups and IT
is up to the individual to supply
means of liQuidating.
The schools will be able to worry
along until the end of the term. as
the law will not be operative for a
while. The board already had de-
termined to abolish the public cups
for next year. Meanwhile there are
various other places that will dis
card public cups. so that the individ-
ual cup will come into demand
rapidly.
Heretofore the picnics enjoyed
MONOPOLY of the individual drink
ing cup to such an extent that in
many places the collapsible metal
affairs we're dubbed picnic cups.
But now the individual cup will
reign supreme. One enterprising
mercantile establishment in Denver
has purchased $4,000 cups for its
store and to give away and 1t is be-
lieyed that some merchant in Gree
lev will follow this example. At this
time such a stroke OF enterprise
might prove a winner.
