LOCAL MARKETS.

Brought Back from Montana Suffering from Rheumatism.

Mrs. Elmer E. Stephenson was brought to Rensselaer today from Danby, Montana, a short distance south of Missoula, and will remain with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Kirk, for, an indefinite period, 'while recovering from an illness dating practically from the time of her arrival in Montana on March 15th. She was accompanied home by her husband, who will leave in a day or two on his return trip, as he can not remain away long at this time of the year. Mrs. Stephenson graduated from the Rensselaer schools in 1906 and her marriage took place a few days after her graduation. Until last spring they resided in Chicago. At that time Mr. Stephenson purchased a farm in the Bitter Root valley and they removed there in March. Mrs. Stephenson had been in poor health and it was thought the climate would prove beneficial, but to the contrary, it acted reversely and she has been in the hospital at Danby most of the time. It was only a few days before their start for Rensselaer that Mrs. Sitephenson was able to sit up for the first time in several weeks. She stood the trip here remarkably well and it is thought will be restored to health. 1 Mr. Stephenson has a fruit farm, having set out a number of young trees since buying the place. While they are developing he is raising potatoes for which that country is also especially suited.

Target Rifle Sent Bullet Through Toe of Boy Owner.

Target rifles are dangerous things for boys, but they all want them and if they get off with no worse accidents than shooting themselves through a toe, they have escaped very well. Russel, son of City Superintendent Warren, has a 22 rifle. Saturday in company with other boys he was down along the river in quest of birds and other small game. He had cocked the rifle to shoot at a bird but the little fledgling divined his intentions and feared his marksmanship and took flight. Russell balanced the muzzle of the gun on his foot and it was discharged. The bullet passed through his shoe and through the great toe of his left foot, shattering the bone. No serious results are anticipated.

Notice From City Marshal Regarding Dogs and Weeds.

I desire to call the attention of the public to city ordinances Nos. 18 and, 19, regarding cutting of weeds on the streets and property of land holders. Ordinance No. 18 requires property owners to keep the streets in front of their premises clear of weeds, grass and trash of all kinds under penalty of $lO fine. Ordinance No. 19 provides a like penalty for allowing weeds to grow upon improved vacant lots, of to permit trash thereon. All property 'owners are ordered to have such weeds or trash removed be-, fore July 4th, or the work will be done by the city and the expense taxed to the property. I also desire to call attention to Ordinance No. 42 requiring dogs to be muzzled during the month of July and August. All unmuzzled dogs found running at large during these months will be killed. J. K. DAVIS, City Marshal.
