We are pleased to learn that Mrs. Ed.
Ferris, who has been quite i'll with rheu-
matte fever, is great deal better.
Coanty Treasurer Sloan is taking more
cash over the counter than any merchant
in town to-day, but we are in hopes be-
fore the end of another week he will be
paying tout just as lively.
We would Judge from the large num-
Der of turkeys sold in Bozeman that
nearly everyone eat turkey and cranber-
ry sauce yesterday. We trust that next
year onr citizens will be able to purchase
these birds from our farmers.
There are plenty of men in Bozeman
now, who win wish that they had Sc
cured a coal mine or an interest when
such properties were cheap. Bozeman's
coal mines are attracting wide attention
and this business will soon be q high in
,dustry in Gallatin valley.
John Jockey left last night for Dubu-
que, Iowa. John expects to be gone
several weeks, the business being in the
hands Of Mr.. George Barnaby. Before
departing Mr.. Jockey closed the pur-
chase of a half interest in Enoch Hold
sons coal mine.
Some one perhaps inadvertently per-
petrated a joke on the Park addition to
Bozeman last Wednesday by dropping at
the Presbyterian parsonage box of good
things, marked REV. Stevenson, West
Gallatin.D We do not mean to say the
joke is too far fetched, but it places the
Park addition little too far from the
balance of the city.
The enticing, captivating, exasperating
game Of trick whist seems to be the all
absorbing game among the lovers of that
kind of sport. The science Of the game
consists in holding tie highest cards and
woe TO the one who is short on trumps
and suit.
George Gillespie, the young and indis-
erect person who forged an order on
William Black. has been bound over in
the sum of $500 to appear at the next
term of court. AS George is not likely
to obtain the amount it is possible he
will remain in Jail until court sets.
As will be seen elsewhere, a reward is
offered by Mr.. Joseph Leighton for evil
dence which will convict those who are
.'mutilating the old government telegraph
line, which he rccqDlv purchased, as the
line will be operatedlh the early spring.
Those who are tampering with either the
wire or poles should desist at once, or
they will be made to suffer the conse-
quencos.
Sam Sullivan, brother of Frank Sullivan,
agent for Winston Bros, at this place,
and a brakeman, whose name we could
not learn were seriously injured yester-
day afternoon on the Wickes branch rail-
road. It seems they were under the
engine cleaning out the ash pan, when
some cars came down the hill, striking
the engine and running over them, cut
ting off both of Mr.. Sullivans legs above
the knee and one leg of the baakesman.
We have not been able to obtain any
further particulars.
Duaing the present month we have re-
ceived more letters Of inquiry regarding
Bozeman and sample copies of the CHRoN-
IcLE than in any previous month of the
year. This fact shows, conclusively we
think, that Bozeman is becoming better
known in the east and will receive a
large addition to its inhabitants next
