officers noticed a strange man drinking
heavily around the saloons, and as the
liquor took effect he began making
talk about the men he had killed. A lit
tie later he said he had kille one the
night before, and just then the officers
who had been watching his suspicious
movements and listening to his strange
stories, took him into custody, believ-
ing that he was a criminal. In very
few moments telegram arrived from
Muir, describing the prisoner, giving
his name as Frank Carey, and request
ing the officers of Livingston to look
out for such man, as he had nearly
killed a man named Kelly on the even
ing previous. A short time afterward
another telegram arrived, stating that
Kelly was dead. Frank Carey was
thereupon taken before Judge Seward,
charged with the murder, and, having
waived examination, was committed
for trial at the next term of
court, and will be taken to Bozeman
Jail this morning. The prisoner
tells the following story regard
ing the occurrence: ssI keen

ing this man Kelly came into my place
with a party of friends and wanted
credit for round of drinks. He owed
me $8 and I told him he could

moments had laid my head on my
arm leaning on the end of the bar he
came up and hit me blow which

and made him bleed freely. He fell
on the floor and lay there senseless

carried out and / guess he swallowed
a great deal of blood. / did not intend
to kill him and did not think he was

party. Do not fail to attend.
Word was received here Yesterday
morning that by a slight change il
the plans for the progress of the Vii,
lard excursion trains they will spend
Thursday night in Livingston, arriving
here about six o'clock in the afternoon
and departing next morning at seven.
It is therefore the plain duty of Liv.
ingston and her citizens to receive this
distinguished party and entertain them
with something more than mere hand
shaking and words of welcome. The
time for arranging anv plan of action
and preparing for a reception is very
short but with prompt and united
action much can be accomplished. A
meeting of the Board of Trade and citi-
Zens generally is called for this morn
ing at eleven O'Clock at the Board
of Trade rooms, and it is hoped that
there viii be full attendance and
that everyone will join heart and
hand in the work of arranging for
their reception. A programme, sug-
gested and to be discussed at the meet
ing this morning. is about as follows:
Decorate the depot and the platform
with evergreens, Chinese lanterns and
bunting; provide seats and tables and
perhaps a luncheon; have band of
music IN attendance, and, by public
speeches, express the welcome of the
people of Livingston. This seems
like good programme, and it is for
the citizens III their meeting this
q
morning to amend, emong or..reject it.
The ENTERPRISE, in its ardent de-
sire to see Livingston do herself credit,
requests it's readers to attend
the meeting this morning, and to go
prepared and resolved to forward the
object for which it is called. Every
town along the line Of the Northern
Pacific road is preparing to make
grand demonstration in honor of this
great excursion and of the event
which calls them to this country-the
of the Northern Pacific.
Even Benton sends a delegation of her
citizens from northern Montana to
greet them at Helena. Livingston
must do herself justice. She is widely |
known as the youngest and liveliest of |
he Northern Pacific towns, and must
sustain her reputation. It is for the
citizens of this town to attend 10 this
natter, and they must not neglect
his grand opportunity to honor Presi-
lent Willard, of the Northern Pacific.
