MARRIED YOUNG MAN THREE
YEARS IN THE PEN.
FIGHTING F|NNs ARE SENTENCED

Charles c. Bum, the young man
who on Monday pleaded guilty to a
charge of bigamy, appeared for SEN
tence in the district court Tuesday.
Judge Ayers had inquired into the
facts and could find no reason ex-
tending leniency, SO he imposed the
maximum penalty, from two years and
10 months to three years in the pen.
FnIandcrs Sentenced.
The case of Jacob Myllmaki, OF
to Jaryi, Alex Aho and Victor Salo,
charged with assault in the first de-
gree upon Nick Park and Jacob Ylima
near Geyser on Feb. l last, was to
have been tried Monday and jury
was secured. In the afternoon C. ].
Marshall, for the defendants, az
nounced that they wer willing to plead
guilty to assault in the third degree.
This was satisfactory to County At
torney Frank Wright, but the defense
asked that the court hear the wit.
nesses in order to determine the ex-
tent Of their participation and ascer-
tain the general facts. The resv of
the afternoon was taken up with the
hearing, Mr. Lilliberg, as especially
capable man for the task. acting as
Interpretation. While some points con-
nected with the affair We're not clear
ed up, it was made evident that the
whole trouble resulted from drunken
brawl at the cabin of the two men
who were injured. It seems to have
originated over the disappearance of
jug of whiskey while the celebration
was on.
In the case of the four Finianders
who pleaded guilty Monday to as
saulting two of their countrymen in
drunken brawl near Geyser last
February, Jacob Myllmaki and Otto
Jaryi were given six months each,
, while Victor Salo was fined 500.
Alex Aho, who seems not to have
participated in the fighting, was dis
charged.

R. M. Calkins, of Seattle, traffic
manager of the Milwaukee, and w. J.
Kelley, assistant general freight and

Great Falls, the former being en- route
to Chicago. While in Gerat Falls

the railroads had never been so good

"1f the prosperity we are now en-.

to say see no cause to predict any
thing but continuation of prosperous
times-it will bring with 1t general
railroad development and expansion
and when that time Is reached there
is no doubt about where a good deal
of that development and expansion
will be made. Montana will get her
share; the people need feel no appre,

A FINE ENTERTAINMENT.

The entertainment given at the
Methodist church on Thursday attract
ed an audience that comfortably filled
the place, but which was much smaller
than the merit of the attraction justi-
fled. Miss Donovan, the eontralto,
captivated the audience with her ex-
quisite singing while Miss Hoag proved
a delightful reader and the work of
Adele Watson, the accompanist, was
of the same high order.
