ing received in the local office from
the general office within sixty days
frCm the time of making proof by the

time than the local officers have ever
before known.
The Miles City officers say thar ap-
parently many people forget that they
are issued patent for land that they
have made proof on. for there are in
the Miles City cffice over 1000 unde-
livered patents. some of them dating

LITIGATION Over
OTTER CREEK GIRL

A charge Of incorrigibility filed in
broadus township court against Violet
Shull. winsome looking young lady
OF IA years, is perhaps An effctr on
the part Of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
SEVERN Salverson, to take her lack
to their home. The compla aint was
sworn to by Salverson, the young
lady's stepfather. and upon her ar
raignment in justice court yesterday
forenoon before c. G. Craw, the young
lady pleaded not guilty. She was
ready for an immediate hearing with
witnesses present. her grand parents.
Mr.. and Mrs. George w. Long: her
uncle and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs. Chester
T.. Long: her aunt. Mrs. Lizzie E.
Dodd. John Bell, all Of Otter creek,
and Jim Karns Of Bradshaw creek.
all of whom had come to Rrcatlus
about IS miles away. at their own ex-
pense. The girls parents Mr.. and
Mrs. Salverson. announced they were
not ready to proceed with the trial
and consequently the hearing was set
for ! c'cock. Saturday afternoon. May
20. Until that date the care Of Miss
Shull was given to w. E. Sutter who
was named as probation officer. The
court directed MIR. Sutter not to lock
the girl in Jail ncr to restrict her lib
erty other than keep her under sur
vcillance providing her with board
and lodging. The complaint charges
Miss Shull with refusing to obey her
parents. growing up in idieness and
with being incorrigible. a term de-
fined as irreclaimable or that cannCt
be corrected.
Mr.. and Mrs. 6. W. Long reside on
Otter creek. about half mile from
the home of their daughter. Mrs. Sew
erin Salverson. and it appears that the
relations of the two families kave
been disturbed If not broken over do
mestic troubles. 1t il said Miss Shuil
has made her home with the grand
parents about half her life and that
at the home Of her mother she be-
lieved her living conditions unbcar-
able. Finally in desperation it is said
she voluntarily lett her mothers home
and announced she had taken up her
permanent abode with her grand par
ents.

SMELL BREATBS To
DETECT ONION OOORS

Prohibition enforcement officers take
notice.
The Broadus primary grade school
became so pungent with the unsavory
cdor OF wild onions that the teacher
at frst forbid the youngsters from
masticating the offensive roots and
then when the practice continued the
teacher adopted other tactics to dis
cover the Offenders. She smelled the
breath Of each child and readily de-
tected the onion odor. In fact. she
was nearly prOstrated by the obnox.
tous onion breath of two or three
youngsters. As punishment the teach
er sent the young onion eaters tc. their

LUMBER DEALER IN
WAR FRAUDS PROBE
RELEASED ON BAIL
Phillips Is Arraigned Immedi-
ately After His Surrender
to Authorities.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-(By A.
P)-John Lewis Phillips, republican
state chairman for Georgia, for
whose arrest warrant was issued
late Saturday on complaint of the
department of justice. alleging con-
spiracy TO defraud the United States
in connection with a war contract
for the disposal OF surplus lumber,
surrendered to deputy United
States marshal on his arrival here
Monday. He was Immediately ar
raigned before United States Com
missioner Hit, who issued the war.
rant, waived examination and was
released in $4,000 bail for action of
the grand jury.
The warrant for Mr.. Phillips ar
rest was issued while the special
grand jury was still conducting its
investigation of the lumber disposal
contract made by the war depart
ment with the firm of Phillips and
Stephens acting as agents for the
lumber interests. No Indictment
has yet been returned by the grand
jury and it was understood that wit
nesses were still being heard.
Much mystery surrounds the oh
tanning Of the warrant. Until a copy
of the complaint was made public
late Monday following the arrest,
spokesman Of the department denied
that a warrant had been sought.
Mr.. Phillips said he had fastened
TO Washington when he had been
informed of the warrant. While ne
was being arraigned. c. Willing Hare.
of Philadelphia. who as director Of
sales of the war department signed
the contract with Phillips and Ste
phens, was at the department of JUS
tice TO tell what he knew Of the
lumber disposal case. Mr.. Hare said
the first he knew of the case was
this morning. He added he did not
expect to appear before the grand
jury.
Later the department of justice
announced Mr.. Hare would cooper
ate with the department.
Mr.. Phillips Monday night refused
10 make a formal statement at this
time. but declared all his transac-
tons with the government had al
ways been "clean and above board, ="
and were matters Of record. He
said he was surprised at the issuance
of a warrant before the grand jury
had indicted him and attributed it to
politics.
