Town Solicitor Agard objected to continuance if it was asked for the purpose of collect- ing testimony. as the case had already been in court several weeks. but if continuance was asked for preparation of argument, he had no objection. Judge Sweeney said no testimony would be introduced for the defense, as he did not consider that necessary, but he wanted time to consult author 1ties on the legal aspect of the case. Objection was withdrawn and the case continued for one week.

 There is a merchant in Westerly who brides himself in outwitting a canvasser who called at the store Thursday afternoon. The. canvasser was in the interest of an illustrated publication giving set of books with each yearly subscription on the install ment plan He explained the plan to the smart merchant and incidentally said as he handed the books: We give those books to you" but be- fore he could finish the sentence, with one years subscription, the merchant walked off with the books. He refused to return the books to the canvasser, declaring that they were given to him and he proposed to keep them. The canvasser's entreaties were in vain. so he appealed to police of ficer and the books were finally re- turned.
 Some day somebody may play that sharp game on the merchant, based on the words In the advertisement, We give to customers" and pay no regard to the balance of the advertisement. Perhaps in that instance there would be arrest and prosecution for serious crime. There would be revival of the ancient truism, Tt depends upon whose bull is gored."

There is reported that changes in the railroad at Stonington are likely to take place. Engineers and officials were here Thursday and they seemed to have plans for the removal of the freight station to the marsh district near the junction. This would do away with the crossing tender question as the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad owns part of the marsh south of it's tracks and the change could easily be made.

SMUGGLING CASE


CANDO, N. D., Dec. 23.-The people
of this vicinity will call to mind that
when c. H. Olson was in Europe last
spring buying his iblooded stock Of
horses, the story vas generally cir
culated that on previous trips he had
struggled certain valuable articles
into this country, and that the United
States government through it's secret
service had procured undisputable evil
dence against him. A certain Mr..
Foulkes was in Cando and there was
much talk about what he did while
here. Most of it was simply talk Of
the yellow journal type, and after
wards vanished into thin air. But one
fact remained; that by use of strong
threats and bulldozing Mr.. Foulkes ex-
torted,a check for $1,000 from Carl Z.
Olson as hush money. 1t may have
been supposed that this check and
certain other influences brought TO
bear had silenced further investiga.
tion by the government and that the
real facts as stated in certain news
papers still stood. On the contrary
the fullest investigation was made and
not a single charge substantiated. The
81 900 check has been returned to Mr..
Olson. 1H96sA

Hay Near Miles City and
Burned to Death

MILES CITY, Mont, Dec. 23.-Pin-
ned underneath a load of hay which
he was taking a distance of six miles
to hate it baled, Ed. Houtz, a young
man about 20 years of age, met death
in a peculiar and terrible fashion
some time on the highway at the head
of Custer and Grow Rock creeks about
forty miles north of Miles City. In
some understandable manner, the hay
caught fire and the lad was burned to
death without a soul near to aid him
in his sad oredicament.
CHASTITY Sight.
The remains were not found until
the next morning about 10 o'clock.
when Will Coombs was driving down
the road and caught sight of a strange
scene. There in the road were two
teams of horses and the running gears
of a hay rack. On the side of the road
was the CHASTITY sight of a human
form with head and arm burned to a
crisp. in a smouldering pile of hay.
The horses had been untouched by
the fire. it being presumed that the
wind kept the blaze from them. The
spokes of wheel were burned but
otherwise the gears were in good
shape.
1t was impossible to identify the
| body but the traveller knew the horses
and he hurried to the ranch Of Aft
| -larke and asked him who had been
| driving his horses. He said that it
must have been his hired hand AID

there found young Houtz. L. L. Curl

Preferential Primary.

To many in this section of the
state, the action of the Republican
central committee in refusing to al
low preferential primary appears
to indicate that the committee, the
majority Of which is for Eberhart, is
afraid to leave the matter to the
Judgment of the common people. 1t
appears queer that when Eberhart
himself, Taft, La Toilette, Roosevelt
and Wilson have all declared in fav-
or Of such primary that a state
comittee will not allow one. Mr..
Eberhart says that it really is not a
matter of great Importance. If he
wins the nomination by his bench
men using such methods, the cleo
ton returns will show him just how
important the matter is. za3
