Here is the story of a gravedlgger
who, after hard toll at a grave, found
all his labor IN vain owing to the soil
slipping and almost filling in the grave
again. .,
After fndulging In such language as
church sexton might reasonably use,
he got bright idea.
- Placing his cap and Jacket near the
edge Of the grave aond hiding his
spade, he forthwith proceeded to hide
himself. n
In few minutes up came a visitor
to the graveyard. Seeing the fallen
In grave and the cap and Jacket, he
raised an alarm that the sexton was
buried alive. Brawny arms and spades
were soon forthcoming, and In short
time the grave was once more dug out,
but no sexton was found. ''--s~-
Their perplexity gave way to indig-
nation when the sexton emerged from
a clump of trees with a pleased grin
on his face and thanked theml

COZY DOLAN'S LAST REQUEST
Frank Bancroft, Not Being Fish,
Was Unable to Comply With

"What I think was the richest thing

off on a storm-tossed ship on the Pa
cific ocean, when Bancroft's all-star
tourists were making a jump by boat
last fall. 1t was right in the midst
of danger and apparent tragedy, too,
and yet it was so good that the whole
crowd of us beloved with delight.
ga fearful storm, regular typhoon,
struck us far out at sea, and the
situation grew decidedly serious. Tons
of water were coming aboard every
moment; the ship was wallowing and
Keeling, and the captain was ordering
all hands to get the boats ready. The
players were all clustered on the deck,
and, just as the boat was bounding
madly, Cozy Dolan managed to make
his way to old Frank Bancroft. n

To Prevent Epidemic.

4 o Prevent Epidemic.
DR.. w. F. CogswelI, secretary of the
state board of health, has issued a cir
cular letter calling the attention of
physicians AMI health officers to the
rules of the board relating to infantile
paralysis. They provide that those suf-
fering from the disease must be isolat-
ed and the room in which the patti
ent is confiHed must be thoroughly
screened against flies. The regulations
also provide that the house in which
a patient suffering from the disease
is confined must bear a placard stat
ing the fact.
Local and county health officers are
requested to report any cases coming
to their attention by telephone or wire

now" said the circular, that the virus
is present in the nasopharynx of the
patients and that normal carriers are
not uncommon. Infected nasal dis
charges, therefore, probably consti-
tute the common vehicle of spreading
the infection. Great care should be
exercised in the proper disposal Of

Montana voters will have the priv

law out of three which it was proposed
to be submitted. This is the law to
permit boxing matches. The two which
will not be submitted were to loan pub

and to tax mine revenues.
The time in which the petitions
could be submitted has expired. The
number of signatures required was
1888 from not less than II counties.
The boxing bill was signed by 1900
voters. The mine tax bill received the
next highest number, 4,345, about 1000
short of the required number. The
farm loan measure was short more

What is declared to be the final chap
ter in the efforts of A. D. Stillman to
put the farm loan law, enacted by the
last legislature, into successful opera
ton, was made when State Treasurer
w. c. Rae returned to the Women of
Woodcraft the 100000 which this Or
der had conditionally deposited
through Mr.. Stillman for the purchase
of the first issue of farm loan bonds,
their purchase being conditionally up
on Stillman's approval. A formal de-
mand was made upon the state treasur-
er for the return of the money in view
of the fact that the constitution of the
Women of Woodcraft will not permit
the order to invest in securities other
than national state, and school and
city bonds.

State Falls to Prove CHARGE.

The supreme court has affirmed the
judgment of the district court of Teton
county dismissing the action brought
by the state against the Rocky Noun
tain Elevator company, in which the
company was charged with violation
of the anti-discrimination law. The
opinion, which was written by Asso-
ciate Justice Holloway, says the court
does not pass upon the validity of the
act, but it does say the first section
of the law appears to be meaningless.
1t was alleged that the Rocky Noun
tain company paid more for wheat at
Choteau than it did at Dutton, and it
was proved, and because of this the
state charged that the Rocky Mountain
Elevator company was guilty of violat-
ing the anti-discrimination law. But
this the supreme court holds the state
failed to prove.
