He said he had sonic laudanum but wanted more to rub on for rh m mutism. This was about 3 0 'clock' Friday afternoon.

"On Saturday morning," said the Dr., "I noticed him lying on the bed. arm over his face, ap parontly in a very deep slumber, and closed the door carefully and left the room. This was about 8:30 in the morning. No more attention was then paid to him until in the afternoon when the landlady and I walked into the room together and found him lying on his left side with his head thrown back. 1 touched ]i is pulse, closed the door and went after Dr. Blevins.

Three of onr local nimrods were ont shooting squirrels last Sunday, hut not being satisfied with tnat kind of shoot ing, they turned their attention to somewhat larger game, but not so swift. Abe Hillman had a 250 lb. pig running at large and one of the great sports took a shot at it with a 22 rifle and killedit. The hunters have to "dig up" or replace the pig's equal. It was worth $25 How soon will they be tak ing shots at someone's horse or cow? Hucli conduct should be severely pun ished and people's stock will be pro tected. Restaurants and boarding houses are springing up at every corner and our town is putting on quite a business-like air. The large store of the Thompson Mercantile Co. will soon be ready tor the stock. Lumber is being piled on the Kelley lot for a saloon, so we under stand. The telephone line is an as sured fact and the railway is in the air, or at least on paper.

They will pay a good for milk delivered at the creamery. A few of onr people here turned out to beautify the ground around the ward house Saturday.

The bainon itself is a silk structure, VO feet in diameter, JO feet long, made of heavy yellow silk and covered viih a rope netting. This great airdlip is worth $500 on the market, and it be longs without any reservation whatever to the person who captures it.

Warden Richards is causing the darns of the county lo be equipped with the Montana fish ladder. This devise is inexpensive and it enables the fish to easily get over any dum. Another new scheme for preventing fish going out in ditches, is the building of a paddle wheel at the head of the ditch. The wheel allows all trash to pass through, bu I fish rarely go by it. Mr. Richards intends to have every stream in the county, where ditches are taken out, to be equipped with either wheels or screen headgn tes. He Ims already had nearly all the dams fixed up with fish ladders. The rest, will lie attended to very soon. Montpelier Examiner. Jessie Morrison Gets Twenty Years. Topeka, Kan .

The baloon will rise and fall with the temperature, until it finally descends As it strikes the colder strata of air the gas will condense and the airship will fall When it strikes the warm atmos phere near the earth it will expand and the baloon will again rise. This it will repeat many times. Then the baloon may be seen in scores of places before it comes near enough to earth to be made captive.
