THE STORY OF TERMINUS.

that Terminus was a god Of JUS
tice, and that his name meant
justice and. forbade anyone to
trespass on another's property.
you see, no one could go be-
yond the boundary where one Of
these monuments was erected to
Terminus. So in time these logs
and stones came to mark the bor-
ders of property.
, Landmarks and boundaries,
you can gather from this, were
held sacred by the Romans. And
they are respected today.

Constantine. who was the first

The love of these two; their

How could she guard it?

Margaret wrung her hands and
pleaded. Her face had the same
look as on the day when Andrew
left them. She had leaned ex.

her clasped handc at her lips
like a white angel weeping. When
Nora Lee said, s''Oh, mother, is
your heart breaking?" she had
answered with a. sobbing laugh.
That day. was the end Of life; the
end of happiness for her dear, r;lar
tyred saint. e
And how she lay in her coffin
with the serapbic and blessed
smile carved from the very
spirit on her lips. Who would
believe all this beauty of her?
Nora Lee lowered her head. She
didn't know what word to say.
She wondered If her mother wishrd
her to surrender the bonds. This
she knew, was the last thing
Andrew would want--the very
last violation of his memory.
We're not getting anywhere,
Miss Meadows. It doesn't pay to

She repeated blankly: 1.-THE

left me explicit orders about them.
They were entrusted for certain
purpose which agreed to full

WILD BUFFALO INVADING
RANCHES OF CENTENNIAL

A herd of seven buffalo were
roaming at large in the upper Cen
tennial valley recently, according
to word from a rancher of that sec
great annoyancenn m cmfwy-
ton. They have been causing
great annoyance to the ranchers
there as the fences mean nothing
to them, and hay corrals have
been invaded as well as farm yards,
the entire herd feeding at leisure
wherever they may happen to be.
The herd has been driven into
the mountains several times by
cowboys, but they return and seem
to prefer the Picnic Springs
ranches to all others. AS it is dam
gerous for a man on foot to ap-
prOach them, the owner finds it
impossible to feed his hens ex-
cept by mounting his horse and
packing the feed across a small
creek, where his chicken coops
are located.
The buffalo belong in Idaho and
are said to be descendants of the
big buffalo bull that killed Dick
Rock several years ago at his game
corral.

OPPOSE PARDON OF
CASCADE KILLER
YOUTH WHO KILLED MINER OF
SAND COULEE ASKING
FOR LIBERTY
Motive for killing was possession of
automobile and money of victim;
Boy attempted to fix crime on his
father.

County Attorney F. A. Ewald of
Cascade county has refused to re-
commend a parole for Michael Patti
kovitch of Sand Coulee, now serving
an indeterminate sentence of from 10
to 20 years at Deer Lodge for
the murder of Charles Tishma, a
Sand Coulee miner, who was brutally
killed on July 20, 1918. Ewald's adj
verse recommendation to the state
parole board was emphatic.
In it's communication to Mr.. Ewald
the state board sets out that Pattko-
witch vas aligible to parole on May
81, 1924, as he had served one-half
of his minimum sentence. Mr.. Ew-
aid wrote the pardon board that the
prisoner should serve at least the
minimum sentence because of the
circumstances surrounding the MUIR
der.
The Circumstances
A Ford automobile and Tishma's
money was the motive for the MUIR
der, court records show. They also
reveal how Pattkovitch first tried to
lay the crime at the door of a neigh
Dor boy and later declared his father
to be the guilty one. The elder Patti
kovitch was tried for thhe murder on
the strength Of the boys testimony.
A jury acquitted him.
AS adduced by testimony from a
cor of witnesses, the story Of the
trial which took place in the spring
of 1919 in the district court, showed
that the younger Pattkovitch lured
Tishma from his home in Sand Cou-
lee by telling him that he wanted
him to take his car, a Ford, and aid
the elder Pattkovitch in repairing
some machinery.
Tishma agreed and drove to the
Pattkovitch ranch where he was
killed, his body dragged by a wire
attached to one leg and buried in a
manure pile.
Sought Tishma's Pay.
A few days after the murder, Patti
kovitch, not content with having
killed Tishma and obtaining the car,
decided to get the dead mans I'M
collected wages. He went to Great
Falls and instituted attachment pro-
ceedings in justice court. In the
Pattkovitch's downfall
came when a Great Falls garage man
went to collect another instalment
on the car from Tishma. Tishma,
of course, could not be found n the

one company. They can be seen
from almost any portion of the
lower lying and beautiful valley
of Flint creek.
Neither beautiful nor picturesque
are these buildings, but they have
been intensely practical, and they
added vastly to the worlds store
of wealth and have brought riches
to many comparatively poor men.

tiers about Granite Mountain mine,

discovered in the early seventies

auto dealer then learned that Patti
kovitch had the car.
The youthful murderer was picked
up by L. X. Kommers, then sheriff
of Cascade county, and taken to
the equity Jail for Investigation. For
several days he stoutly denied any
connection with Tishma's disappear
ance and at one time he was about to
be released, when circumstances
again tended to point a finger of sus-
piciOn at him. His first story was
that a neighbor boy had told him Of
killing Tishma. This boy was at the
county Jail when young Pattkovitch
told his first story and only the pre-
.sence of deputy sheriffs prevented an
encounter between the two.
Implicated father
All through a vigorous examina-
ton conducted that night Pattko-
witch adhered to his story, but when
the questioning was begun again the
next morning he showed signs of
weakening. Finally he admitted the
falsity of his statement concerning
his friend, fold a number of conflict
ing yarns and eventually broke down
and confessed his own part in the
crime. Later on, he again changed
the story to make his father the
guilty party and the aged man was
tried, with his son as principal wit
ness for the state. Throughout the
fathers trial, officers sat between
father and son and at no time were
they permitted to be together. The
father was acquitted.
The son then was placed on trial,
found guilty OF second degree MUIR
der and sentenced to serve from ten
to twenty years in the state peniten-
tiary.

AVER in Granite county, IS
miles from Anaconda, stands
the famed Granite mountain,
the hill which in the eighties and
nineties made a number of million
aires and which is responsible for
much of the wealth of St. Louis,
where it was chiefly owned.
At the foot of this hill lies the
town of Phillipsburg, which was a
prosperous camp long before the
wealth of Granite mountain became
known. Fourteen or fifteen feet
above the town, clinging to the
steep, bare hill, are the buildings
that mark the surface af the Gran
lite Mountain and Bi-Matallic
mines, since 1896 consolidated into
