nights.
The city streets are dusty. and roads will
soon be in tip-top condition. -.
The Helena court house is the upliest

Judge Wade's illness caused the recon-
vening of court TO be postponed until to-
morrow. The case OF Geo. ". Fox is the

Our business men are ready for the spring
trade to OPEN but it doesn't. to any alarm

however.
Helena's rival dry goods houses are both
planning an enlargement of their stores.
Balls are whiZZing through the air. and
bats whiZZing wildly around las. week.
The Silver Cornet Band and Gesans
