I a THE HARDIN TRIBUNE VOL.\ III NO 31. HARDIN, YELLOWSTONE COUNTY, MONTANA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 5, ieto. WHO WILL BE NOTE OF WARNING Billings Man Commits Suicide In Hardin Saloon Sam Ross Takes His Own Life By Shooting Self Through Pispondency is Cause Broken in health and despond- ent because he was no longer able to perform a standard day's labor Sam Ross a brieic laver abont 50 years of age coniii suicide in the rear of the Boson saloon shortly after 2 o'clock Monday afternoon by shooting himself through the heart with a a 32-20 colts revolver. Ross was a brick layer and for a number of years has made Billings his home. He came to Hardin about five weeks ago and for a time was employed on the new school building, but was sub- sequently discharged on his in- ability to perform a standard days labor, since which time he had been \hanging around.\ The unfortunate man had been very dispondent of late and had intimated several times that he would commit suicide. He had made the statement in the pres- ence of Henry Coger who had since been keeping close watch of him to prevent the deed. On Monday Ross entered the saloon taking a chair near the front of the building. After die bar man had finished his work at the bar he walked out to the card table to watch a game of cards. This gave Ross the cl anee he had evidently been looking for. Presently the bar man heard foot steps and turn- ing saw Ross coming from be- hind the bar with a revolver which was cocked, having his thump on the trigger with the muzzle pointed toward his breast. \Don't do it Sam,\ yelled the bar 'man as he sprang toward Ross. The latter paid no attention to the entreaty except, to step back- wards with his back toward the rear corner of the room and ex- claiming, \Well boys, here's ago!\ pulled the trigger and fell to the floor, dying instantly. Investigotion showed that the bullet had'penetrated the heart, passing entirely through the body. It was later found in one of the rear windows.. - -R,cals was addicted to the use of intoxicants and was a victim of the morphine habit. A num- ber of needles used to inject the drug was found in his grip and a bottle partially full was found on his person. Ross was without friends and the whereabouts of his relatives are unknown. He recently had Guy Logan write a brother at Fall River, Ill,, but investigation revealed that there is no such office in the state. 'The letter has been returned here since his death. Coroner Smith arrived here on the evening train and took charge of t'ae body, taking it to Billings on No.43 Tuesday morn- ing, where . the remains were taken charge of by the brick layer's union.

The law reads: Penalty for obstruction. -Who- ever obstructs or injuries any highway, or diverts any water course thereon, or drains any water from his land upon any highway, to the injury thereof, by means of ditches or dams, is liable to a penalty of Ten Dollars for each day such obstruction or injury remains and must be pun- ished as provided in section 8736 (1031) of the Penal Code. It shall be the duty of the road supervisor to notify the County attorney of any and all vio- lations of this act. • (Act ap- proyed March 2, 1903, § 42.) (8th Sess. Chap. 44.)

The article appears below: When it comes to being up to the minute, in addition to offer- ing its patrons the most attrac- tive inducements, the National Home Company o± Spokane, Washington, represented ia this city by our well known towns- man, R. E. Titus, is entitled to the distinction of working in the lead of the procession in placing itself in touch with the public which it seeks to serve. The National Horne Company is Con- ducted along strictly business lines, with no tiresome red tape to worry or annoy the patrons directly interested.' and as its responsibility cannot be question- ed, it bids fair to become excep- tionally popular and successful in this territory.\ As stated above Mr. Morrison is the local agent here and has Written a number of loan con- tracts for Hardin people. He invites the public to investigate the National Home Company's plan. 4t - expresses Gratitude J. S. Tupper is in receipt of a letter from F. A. Robbins, divis- ion superintendent of the Bur- lington railway in which he ex- presses his gratitude to the Har- din'fire department for the good work they did in saving the new stock yards from being destroy- ed by fire at this point on Thurs- day of last week. Mr. Robbins said that he greatly appreciated their act and that he wished the members of the department might know it. For Sale. , All kinds of garden truck, al- so chickens and hogs. ---J. W.

The milk of a cow that has receutly calved should be chosen, preferably of one which gives milk low in butter fat. for mare's milk. while rich in sugar, Is poor in fat. The milk should be sweet- ened with molasses or sugar and di- luted with %yarn! water. A little of this prePared milk should be given at short intervals from a scalded uureing bottle and large rub- ber nipple. Care should be taken to keep the bottle and nipple scrupulous- ly clean. An ounce of lirnewater should be added to each pint of the prepared milk and half a cupful allow- ed once an hour at drgt. As the foal grows the feeder should gradually increase the amount of milk fed and tenet lieu the intervals between meals in a few days food may be given six times a day and later four times daily. The foul wilt soon learn to driuk from a pail If allowed to stick the attendant's lingers at first. Until the bowels move freely rectal injections should be given night and Morning. If the foal scours at any time two to four tablespoonfuls of a mixture of sweet oil and pure castor oil shaken up in milk should be given and fee4ing of milk stopped for two or three meals, allowing sweetened warm water and litnewater instead The foal may lick oatmeal as soon as it will eat, and gradually the amount may be increased and.. wheat bran added. le five or six weeks some sweet skimmilk may be given and the amount gradually Increased daily until, in three months or so. it may be given freely three times a day in place or new milk.

Foe the purbose of securing all infor- mation necessary to enable him to make the required report te the Indian department an inspec- tor for the United States govern- ment left this (Thursday) morn- ing for the proposed site of the bridge which is to be thrown across the Big Horn river in the vicinity of Hardin and for the building of which it is intendeci that Yellowstone county shall ex - rend $10,(00, Rosebud county $8,500 and the government $10,- 000. It is understood that W. W. Scott, superintendent of the Crow reservation, looks with favor on the project and will make a report in accordance therea ith. Engineer Lewis, con- nected with the government ser- vice, is preparing a plat of the co ur try tri b uiary to the bridge, and when this finished it will be forwarded to Washington that the authorities may see clearly the need of the structure at this point. Soon after the reports of the agent and the inspector, together with the plat, are reviewed at Washington, it will be known what the attitude of the depart- ment will be ; but it is believed there is virtually no doubt that it will be favorable and that the necessary 'amount will be forth coming.
