Pretty Romanoe the Onlmina
.tion of a Christmas Party.
FATHER HAS FORGIVEN
SYoung Swain Dons the Disgulse of
Santa COlaus and Blopes With
Eis Lady Love -A Hearty
Welcome Awaits Them.
A very pretty little love romance was
the culmination of a Christmas tree
and festival in a happy home down
Homestake gulch last Sunday night. It
goes to show to what extremes desper
ate love will go to accomplish its ends.
In the house of McDonald was a
charming lass of 17 auminers. She was
the light of the whole gulch. Half a
mile away lived Malcolm, the only son
of John and Lydia Mercer. He .is a
few months better than 21 years. The
parents of the girl have been much
concerned of late over their daugh
ter's evident love of the young man.
Their only objection to the course
things were taking was the age of the
man. He was regarded as a good, in
dustrious young man, but of course
he must live a few more years and
learn more of the world before bei.g
eligible for the matrimonial handicap.
The girl thought he was about right
in every respect. All went pretty well
up to the day on which the McDon
alds were to celebrate the great day
with a tree and Santa Claus for the
younger members of the family. Mal
20lm, it was understood, was not to
be one of the party; for the old folks
had objected so strenuously that the
girl consented to omit his name from
the list of invited guests. But that
part of the little intrigue was easy.
She saw her lover the day before
Christmas, and then they fixed up the
plot which terminated in the great sur
prise for the old folks.
The head of the house had spoken
to a friend who lives near by. This
friend was to represent Santa Claus.
It was the plan for him to drive up
to the house in a cutter, carry the pres
ents into the house and deposit them
at the base of the tree: then he was
to disappear. The young man and his
fiance made the best .of this plan. He
was well .acquanited with the man
who was to assume the role of Santa,
so it required but a little persuasion
to win out. The young lover would
play Santa.
Promptly at the hour agreed upon
old Santa and his sleigh came ringing
and jingling up to the door of the
mountain home. The bund;ee were hur
ried into the house and Santa soon
disappeared. It waa fun for the child
ren and the old folks wore Christmas
smiles until it occurred to them that
:thefl' daughter was slow to put in an
appearance. Then they looked around
and very soon came to the conclu
slopI that all was not as well as they
'desired.
While the little childrent Jrumped and
"shouted with glee the old man hasten
q4 over to his friend's house to in
quire about a thing or two. It all
dawned,in due time. It was found that
Santa had played the part of the vll
lain.
'The father came to town yesterday
and received word that his daughter
and young Mercer had taken the
train for Eft, Paul. It was a hard
blow, but the loving father soon
reached a conclusion, and he telegraph
ed to St. Paul. His brother lives there
-ap4 to hbip the word was sent.
"As soon as my daughter and her
husband arrive in St. Paul, you will
please furnish them with the neces
sary money to return to Butte?" This
tit the greeting the young couple will
receive. It is proof of the forgiveness
of-tthe father.
Mr. McDonald said yesterday to a
friend he was smoking with: "Why?
if I had thought for a minute that
they were in earnest when they asked
me about marrying, I would have said
yes. Bdtt I thought it was one of
those little school boy romances and
really didn't pay much attention to
it. Of course I'll forgive and forget.
Why, she's the only daughter I've a.ot
and I'd be a hard-hearted old duffer
if I were to throw her over now. Oh,
no, she's still my girl, and if the young
man does his duty he will wllh my best
regards ."

MAY SOLVE THE PROBLEM;
an Action Against the School District
Which May Afford a Way Out of
the Difficulty.
Great Falls, Dec. 29.-In the district
court to-day was filed by County At
LJrney Gormley a suit of G. H. Jay
against the board of school trustees of
this district, and which it is expected
by the county attorney and the school
board will furnish one way out of the
present school difficulty caused by -the
knock out of the special tax. In this
case the claim of a teacher is assigned
to G. H. Jay and every point covered
which has been brought forward
against the proposition of going on with
the schools. It is virtually a suit to
'^st the validity of the contracts be
oween the board and the teachers and
ne teachers hired by them. If the
ustees can hire teachers for the school
ar, as they believe they can, and
'we done, then a judgment secured
1 the present case will permit other
achers also to secure judgments.
hese will probably be readily cashed
y the banks and the schools can con
:nue.
This case may take some time get
ng to the supreme court, and in the
entime the trustees are endeavor
-g to secure money from every one in
l:e district on the subscription plan
'utlined in the Standard some time
ago. The large subscribers so far have
been the Boston & Montana Mining
company, $3,24122; the Electric Light
and Power, Street Car and Boston and
Great lealls Land company, $900, and
W. G. Conrad, $500.
The complaint as filed to-day by
County Attorney Attorney Gormley is
as follows:
"Plaintiff complains of the defend
ant and alleges:
.'That the defendant is a body pol
itic and corporate in the county of
Cascade san state of Montana, and is
legally oyganised. and known as school
district Io. 1, in said county and state.
"That o, the let day of June, 1899,
the board of trustees of the defend
ant district, by a written order made
and entered at a regular meeting of
said board had and held in the city
of Great Falls, in said district, coun
ty and state,. entered into an agree
ment and contract with one Helen
Edgerton, who possessed and still pos
sesses, a good and legal certificate as
teacher, by which the said board em
ployed and hired the said Helen Ed
gerton as a teacher in the public
sqhools of said district for a term of
nine and one-half mdnths, to begin at
the beginning of the ensuing school
year, to-wit., on the first Monday of
September, 1899, and at a salary of
$120 per month.
'That the said Helen Edgerton en
tered into said agreement with said
board of trustees and accepted in writ
ing said employment as teacher for
the time so agreed upon and that she
entered upon the discharge of her du
ties as such teacher on the first Mon
day of September, 1899, and has con
tinuously performed her duties in all
respects as such teacher since said
date; that said board has had full
knowledge of the performance of said
services by said Helen Edgerton and
has accepted the same, and consented
thereto, though no express contract or
agreement has ever been entered into
between said board and said Helen
Edgerton save and except on the first
day of June, 1899. as aforesaid; that
said board has further certified and
acknowledged that the sum herein sued
for, to-wit. $120, is due and owing said
Helen Edgerton for such services as
teacher for the month ending Dec. 22,
1899.
"That at the time of the employment
of said Helen Edgertin by said board
as aforesaid, on the first day of June,
1899, the money on hand and availa
ble to the credit of said defendant dis
trict amounted to the sum of $14.446.80;:
that out of said sum were paid the
salaries of teachers and other expenses
of the school for the balance of the
school year after said contract was
made, leaving on hand the sum of
$7.895.99 on the first Monday of Sfn
tember, 1899. the date of the becinning
of the current school year, and that
this said last named sum was fully
used and exhausted in paying the ;:al
aries and other school expenses for said
month of September.
"That sinee said date there has
been no other money to the credit of
said district wherewith to pay the sal
aries of any of the teachers employed
in the schools of said district, but that
the salaries of all the teachers em
ployed in the schools of said district
for the months of October and Novem
ber have been paid by a local bank
to which said teachers have assigned
their claims against said district; that
there is no money to the c-edit of or
available for said district at the pres
ent time.
"That said district has not iaid said
Helen Ednerton her salary for the
month ending Dec. 22, 1899. or any
part thereof, but that her said month's
salary, to-wit, $120, is wholly unpaid
and has been due and owing to hor
from said district since the 22d day of
December. 1899.
"That in the employment of the
corps of teachers for the present school
year, including the said Helen Edger
ton, for the term of nine and one-half
months, as hereinhef're stated, ar. at
the time hereinbefore etated, to
wit, . on or about June 1 of
the year, the board of trustee,
of the defendant district iave acted
as has been usual and customary with
the board of .trupteesaof said district
and as the e'dasational stid school in
terests of said district require.
"That the total number of teach
ers employed for the current school
year in said district is 43, their sal
aries aggregating $3,700 per month,
andi that the average number of child
ran residing in said district and at
tending the public schools thereof for
the current school year is 1,500; that
a well equipped high school is em
braced in the public school system of
said district, and that the edur.tional
and school interests of said district re
quire that the said sahools should be
kept open and maintained for at least
nine and one-half months of each and
every sshool year,
"That the electors of said school dis
trict did on the 8th day of September,
1399, vote a special tax by which the
sum of $27,125.40 would have been col
lected in order to continue and main
tain said schools for said 'period of
nine and one-half months, but that on
account of the decision of the supreme
court declaring inoperative the law un
der which said tax was voted no part
of said taxes have or can be collected.
"That unless the contracts heretofore
made by the board of trustees of said
district with the teachers in said pub
lic achoolp, including the contract with
said Helen Edgerton, can be enforc
ed by a good and valid judgment
against said district, to be paid by
moneys that may hereafter come into
the treasury of said district, then it
will be necessary that the schools of
said district should forthwith be clos
ed and the educational and school in
terests of said district will according
ly be seriously crippled and impaired.
"That the total Inlebtedness of every
kind against said district does not ex
ceed the sum of 4182 500, nor has it ex
ceeded said sum at any time men
tfoned in this complaint: that the total
assessed valuation of the property of
said district is $8.346,276.
"That said claim of Helen Edgerton
for salary for the month ending Dec.
22, 1899, for the sum of $120, has been
sold, transferred and assiened to the
plaintiff, who is the lawful owner and
holder thereof.
"Wherefore. plaintiff prays judgment
against the defendant for $120 and costs
of suit."

A Shooting Scrape.
Great Falls, Dec. 29.-A -di4pateh
from Choteau says that in Jeffries' sa
loon about 8 o'clock this evening John
Hobbins shot James Bailey, commonly
known as "the Irish lord." inflicting a
flesh wound in the thigh. The two
quarreled concerning money. Hob
bins is quite an old man and quite
wealthy. A few years ago, in this
city, he shot a girl in the head, in
flicting a wound which caused her
death several days later at Lethbrldge.
He was then nermitt*d to plead guilty
to assault and was fined $1,000.

SHOT HIM STONE DEAD
Peter Koodtit Instantly Killed
by A. T. Corrigan.
SLAYER BEHIND THE BARS
He Refuses to Make Any Statement
Further than to Assert That
the Killing Was Done
in Bel -D'ense.
Great Falls, Dec. 29.-To trade for a
man's revolver at noon and kill him
with his own gun before supper is not
a usual proceeding, but it is what A.
T. Corrigan did with Peter Kooutz,
24-miles north of this city, yesterday
morning.
The man who did the killing is in
jail in this city, the man killed lies
alone as he fell in a little shack on
the ranch of Robinson & Cameron,
awaiting the arrival of the Choteau
county coroner.
Corrigan and Kooutz were employed
on the sheep ranch of Robinson &
Cameron, ohe and a half miles from
Cart Wheel Springs, on Timber Cou
lee, and.about five miles inside the
Choteau county lines. Kooutz was as
sisting in looking after the sheep and
Corrlgan tended camp. After dinner
yesterday the men traded revolvers,
Corrigan giving $8 to boot. The re
volver he got from tnoutz, and with
which the latter was killed a few
hours later, was a 88 caliber, five shot
Harrington & Richardson. To fit the
gun traded Kooutz there were no cart
ridges on the place.
No difficulty appears to have taken
place previous to the killing. At about
i:20 yesterday evening Robinson left
both men at the shack, Corrigan cook
ing supper. About 15 minutes later he
returned and was met at the door by
Corrigan, who said:
"I guess you better take me to the
F.lls. I have just killed Pete."
Entering. Robinson found Kooutz
lying alongside, the bed, shot in the
base of the neck. In falling he had
fallen against the stove, end rf'rrigan
had moved him to where he lay. The
Ptory Corrigan told Rohln=on was that
Knoutz had commenced to abuse him.
calling "him names, and threw a bottle
at him. He then took up a slovel and
struck Corrlean twile: the first time
on the head the se-oncl time on the
hand. as C, lriran raised it to protect
his head. Corrigan then fred one shot.
kltling Kouitz stone dead.
fiobirson arrived in (Great Falls
about noon to-cay and turned his pris
oner over to Deputy Sheriff Altires at
the county jail. and left at once for tic
ranch, where the body of Kooutz still
lies as it fell.
Sheriff Clary of Chateau county was
telegraphed to come for the prisontr,
and the coroner of that county was no
tifted to proceed to the scene of the
murder and take charge of the dead
body.
Corrigan was seen by a Standard re
porter at the count, jainl soon after
his arrival. but had been "wised up"
by tFe numerous jail birds who rcece
py the corridor with him. rod r-fused
to make a statement of the trouble.
"I have poly one thing to Esy: It
w as done I.t ,elf defense."
That wa iAll he would say, except
that he was 20 years of age and was
horn in Illinois. He has only been in
Montana a short time.
In appearance Corrigan is a long
haired, thin faced, gawky boy and dons
not look as though he had stamina
enough to kill a field mouse. His head
is .tlihtly cut on the too, and his hand
somewhat swollen, where he alleges
Konutz hit him with the shovel.
Peter Kooutz. the murdered man, has
been in this section for some time. He
is an Austrian-Pollock and is about 30
years of age. He was of a quarrel
some disnosition and inclined to kick
and snarl on all occasions, so say his
arquaintances.
Corrigan does not appear to he at all
worried about the killtin. His revolv
Cr, with one chamber d!ncharged, and
his knife were hroughr in by Robin
son and are in the possession of Jail
er Proctor.
