advertised by the Reese Africanders
than was presented at the Royal
theatre at Marshfield yesterday by
the same company of colored artists.
From the first blair of the trumpet

laughter of a delighted audience
wore away on their departure, there
was not one dull moment. The
audience was large and appreciative,
and justly so, the feature all thru

A model Fifteen Linotype to
be installed in the Standard of
flee was ordered from the Mer=
genthaler Linotype Company last
week and we have promise
from the manufactures it will be
up and running within one month
When this wonderful machine is
installed, full notice will be given

extended to all our readers to
visit the Office and see the ma.
chine in operation.
With our large and growing
family of readers we have been

this wonderful machine. While
the Linotype is called type

composing machine, and today
is standard every where. 1t is
a machine operated by finger
keys, like typewriter, which

MANS BODY FOUND;
DEAD SINCE BLIZZARD

Chance. The mystery surround
ing the disappearance on Feb. 3.
last of Frank Dunn, Al, we'll
known Butte county man, has
been solved by the finding of
the body near the fence around
school section in the vicinity
of the Bomford ranch, i'm the
northwestern section of Butte
county. He was caught in the
great blizzard of early February
and frozen to death. On the
day he was last seen alive he in
formed acquaintance that he
was going to travel overland to
Capitol, Mont, where he had
a homestead. When found the
body was dressed i'm two suits of
underwear, an extra covering
over the chest two pairs of trou-
sers vest coat and heavy mackin-
aw as well as heavy hightopped
overshoes and a heavy cloth cap
but even this heavy covering
was insufficient for protection
against the fierce blizzaid which
overwhelmed him ON the open
prairie.
While there have been many
good roads meetings in this
state the past few years, most
of the meetings have been mere
talk and the practical results
have been few But with the
federal aid now to be secured
and the passage of the new state
law, we are of the opinion that
the time for mere talking has
passed and that hereafter good
work will be accomplished.

matter of fact his victim was irving
to play the role of peace maker at
the time of the shooting. There
was absolutely no justification for
the shooting as none OF the con-
stable $ party were armed.
Meske is Russian, being
native of the country tributary to
to the Blark Sea. He has never
been naturalized in the United
States and is an anarchist by his
own admission Locally he was
considered dangerous and un
desirable citizen bv those who
who knew him best. He had made
threats that he would GET the
first man that attempted to remove
the wagon box from his premises,
so the killing was premeditated
rather than the result of sudden
burst OF temper. The fact that he
shot his victim in the leg at
distance of only ten feet leads to
the theory, however, that he did
not intend to kill his victim out
right. He came here from north
western Canada two wears ago,
and rumor is 10 the effect that a
fire which DESTROYED his home
there was OF suspicious nature
and led to his departure from that
country. On arriving here in lois
he built house OH lots which he
purchased from M. A. Wipper-
man i'll the extreme southwest
part of the city, and has lived
there with his wife and ten small
children ever since. The entire
family have had an unsavory repu-
tation and matters were made
worse at times when the parents
tried to drown their troubles in
drink. Meske was a good worker
but remained idle when he could
not get the S4.OO dav he demand
&c for his service. He had vio-
lent temper and caused disturbance
es i'll business places about the city
OH more than one occasion. Mrs.
Meske worked out occasionally at
family washing, but the combined
earnings of the couple were not
sufficient TO keep them out OF finan-
cial straits. and the drinking add
ed to their domestic troubles. The
couple are in middle life and have
been avoided bv their neighbors.
Violent domestic quarrels have
been frequent and Mrs. Meske,
who is an exceptionally large and
husky woman, was generally re-
puted tobe better man of the
two III physical encounter.
If a jury is drawn for the June
term of court Meske will probabl,
be placed on trial at that time
otherwise the case can hardly come
up for trialun next January.
