JURY FAVORS Strange Double Verdict In Suit to Re- j cover Drainage Taxes. Hillings. Mont.

Tho Jury In its general verdict awarded Judgment to the plaintiffs for tho entire amount of tho suburban drain tax, and in special findings, which consisted of Interrogatories regarding questions adduced by the evidence, forrrrd In favor of thu defend ants in every detail. Tho Sugar company and farmers claimed that their lauds wore not in any way borrcllted by the drnln; thnt the drain commissioner had rrot pro ceeded according to the law In estab lishing tho district, and attacked tho constitutionality of tho law. Tho special findings approved tho action of tho drain commissioner in detail; declared that tko lands of tho plaintiffs have beeu and will bo bene fited by the drain, and that public wel fare and tho condition of the plaintiffs' lauds demanded the construction of the drain In fact, ovory contention of the defense wns uffirmed.

AS Threc-Ycsr-Old Army Animals to Be Broken by Experienced Trainers and Then Taught the Game of War. El Reno. Okla. Plctuiesque old Fort Reno Is to bo made a "remount station," a place where new mounts will be provided for cavaliyiuen. ll Is nurnosod to turn out more than a thousand head of horses and ruuloj each year, ready for the military. The email men who have been stn tinned at the fort have gone to other posts, and as toon as stables can be built the horse school will open. England and Franco have remount stations, but Uncle Sam has not had one heretofore. If the one bete proves a success, It Is ptobable thai all horses and mules for the United Slates army hereafter will go through a course or training bororo graduating Into tegular army lire. "A horse usually lasts about seven ears In the service." said dipt. Letcher Hardeman, who Is here ar ranging for the opening of "school." "A mnlo is good for ten yoars. Tho contractors who have been supplying tho army horses have been buying them between the ages of four nnd eight years. Our experiment will be with threo-year-olds exclusively.

After the horses have been broken, cavalrymen will loach them the game of war. No animal Is to be roughly handled. Kind treatment goes a long way with a hoiso In cultl-, vatlng a good disposition. "We believe there Is economy In a remount station. Not only will wo got a bolter, more desirable lot of horses, but by taking them as three-year-olds wo will get from one to live years more service from them than when we took thorn four to eight cars old T,hey may be bought cheaper, ton.

About fiO men will be employed at the Fort Reno station, anil they ex pect to break In 800 or 900 head of horses and from 300 to 400 head of mules each year. The old barracks at Fort Reno hnve practically been aban doned for months. Tho fort Is on a reservation over which hands or Cheyenne nnd Arapahoe Indians still rovo, but they commit no depreda tions.

Hocause a Paris physi cian made the discovery that whiskers aro a veritable hlvo of disease germs, and during the klsBlng process trans mit the bacteria to others, there Is discontent in the family of Samuel Uoughter, onglrrcer at tho Lucknow Iron mills at Glondale.
