BURGLARY CHARGE
DISMISSED BY STATE
Burrell Asserted That Desire to Pay
Debts and Bid Goodbye While Drunk
Caused Trouble.

The charge of burglarious entrance
with criminal intent filed against G. S.
Burrell, F. r. Lovejoy and Thomas
Rooney, was dismissed by the county
attorney Friday, and instead the men
were arrested on the charge of being
drunk and disorderly, of which offense
they were found guilty and fined $25
and costs, each, a total of 5000
apiece. The charge that the men broke
glass in the door to gain admission
as was first reported, proved unfound-
ed The visit seems to have been
made, according to the evidence, at the
suggestion of Burrell, and the conduct
o. the men was not such as to sustain
the charge of attempted rape con-
tanned in the original complaint, while
IL was held that it did constitute dis
orderly conduct. Rooney and Love-
joy, were the testimony indicated,
less boisterous than Burrell, and
behaved decently in the house Bur-
rell asserted that his intentions were
wholly harmless as the complaining
witness had washed for him and he
owed her so cents and wanted to pay
her and bid her goodbye, as he was
going on the morning train to Poca-
tello He invited the other boys to
go along to the canyon to get some
moro booze as he heard that there
we're bootleggers there, and he want
eo to take a last drink with them be-
fore leaving. When he came to the
door at the rear of the house, he
claimed that he reached his hand
through an opening and lifted the
latch inside, without breaking any
thing He declared that his actions
inside had been misunderstood.

WITH WATCH ON THEM.

After Investigation

The story of a daring robbery
whereby a thief lifted his trousers
from where they were lying in his
room at the Rogerson about 2 o'clock
Monday morning, extracted $36 in
cash from the pockets, left the trous
ers on the window sill with his watch
on top of them and made an escape
through the alley, is told by A. L.
Trout, the owner of the trousers and
the money
Mr.. Trout says that he was awaken
ed by a noise evidently made by the
thief jumping from the roof into the
ash can at the rear of Murphey's cigar
store, and that missing his trousers
he at once rushed down stairs and
informed the night clerk that he had
been robbed The clerk thereupon
gave him a gun and took another him
self and they rushed out. Trout ran
around into the alley, while the clerk
was to find Policeman Taylor and
come down the alley the other way.
The clerk found the officer and they
came down the alley as intended but
the man had evidently escaped be-
tween buildings.
Sheriff Kendall was notified and ;

How surely and steadily those things

down Time was when scarlet fever
diphtheria. smallpox, yellow fever,
typhoid and long list of infections and
community diseases were called "scts

come from public and private negli-
gence, and it is we'll known that God
has nothing to do with them. Railroa d
wrecks used to be called ''acts of God, -
but generally now they can be traced
to the hours of service of employees,
or to their personal habits,
or their physical condition.

but railroad managers are. Fires and

We cannot predict many things,

thoughts On
WASHINGTON

This office has received letter from
B. A. Leonard, De Pere, Wisconsin, and
concerning the passing Of the birthday
of George Washington, he writes:
The first president of the United States
borns in Westmoreland County, Vlr-
ginia February 22, 1882; died December
IA, 1899. Bet~een those two dates
what? His mother said, "He was al
ways a good boy AS Revolutionary
patriot soldier, general, statesman and
father of his country his name will
always live; but eternity alone will re-
veal to the human race its debt of graz
itude to the peerless and immor tai name
of Washington" and we may we'll say:
Oh! mightiest nation of the land,
Oh! land beyond compare,
Where heavenly freedom had her
birth,
And built her temple fair
Throw out your flags from east to
west.
Today and fire your guns
To hail the memory of the best
And bravest of your sons.
Well may historians write with
pride
The annals of your praise.
Peace to your shade Mount Vernon's
chief.
And hallowed be the clay
Ger which in reverence-not in grief
The millions bend today;
For you have left your land boon
To bless us and to stay.
Until the stars and sun and moon
Forever pass away!

TIE r eSignation Of @. F
Post

For the interest of all concerned, the
the resignation of G. F. Post was no
doubt the best move that could be
made. The Office of highway commits
sioner has become the most important
in the county and with friction between
Mr.. Post and members of the state
commission, with the county clerk and
with criticisms from certain members
of the county board to be consiGered, it
is doubtful if the best results could be
obtained. When such conditions arise
the best way TO clear the atmosphere is
to secure a new personality. Last
year on the country roads there was
spent about $125, 900 and this year
there is available about $12O, 900, the
sum of $50, 600 going for repair work.
This is to be spent under the direction
of the highway commissioner, guided
more or less by the state commission
and the county highway committee.
The expenditure of so great a sum is
important and the greatest harmony
should prevail to obtain the best re-
suits. During the years of service of
Mr.. Post long stretches of good roads
in the county have been built and Mr..
Post has worked early and late to ac-
complish this result. He has no doubt
accomplished as much as any one could
with the experience and material at
hand Ithas been learned that quartzte
is not to be used on the surface OF roaC
and this will be of great service in the
work to be done IN the future. Other
valuable things have no doubt bee n
learned which will aid the road work 20
be done and much is to be expected by
the tax payers. Many things stand to
the credit of Mr.. Post and his successor
will find it necessary, also, to work
early and late to keep the pace and u
produce expected results.

Keep Sunng

A cheerful disposition, happy tenn
perment. is the master key that I'M
locks more secrets, more riches, more
success, than anything else. The sunny
soul does not need letters of recommen-
dation or introduction; all doors fly
open to him; he is welcome everywhere.
A sunny temper is a talisman more
powerful than wealth, more precious
than rubies. 1t is IAN aroma whose
fragrance fills the air with the odor of
paradise.
If you wish to attract friends and to
do your best work, keep your mind
filled with sunshine, with beauty and
truth, with cheerful and uplifting
thoughts; bury everything that makes
you unhappy and discordant, everything
that cramps your freedom, and worries
you. Bury it before it buries you.
Adopt the sun dial's motto, II record
none but hours of sunshine. Irish

him standing in one of his laboratories,

Gals about, the wizard was reminiscent
and said that Madison was the most
beautiful city, knowing the capitol of
Wise onsin in the days when he was a
telegraph operator. Mr.. Edison is d.
recting all his genius toward perfect
ing the photograph. To Mr.. Brandon
burg he said: II am going to get rid Of

counts" TIE lison said that so per
cent of the discs made were rejected
and to remove the scratching sound is
