An Unpleasant Plight.

A New Orleans dude at the opern
stood and leisureIy surveyed the i'm
mepse audience before divesting himself
OF his topcoat. Perhaps it WINS the
lightness Of the new spring garment that
deceived him. Anyhow, he inadver.
tently took of the ovcrcoat and under.
coat together, folded them slowly and
gracefully, and laid them over the back
Of his char. The sight Of tho dandy il
his sh'rt-sl-eves and vest seemed to catch
the eyes of everybody in the house
instantly. and a general giggle deepened
qu.cal. INTO unanimous ha@-haws. So
mnrh Of sirt-bosom is exposed in the
prevailing style Of evening dress that he
naturally did not at ONO discover his
undue exhibition Of linen, and he was
seated before he was aware that he was
the cause OF all the noise. Then his
studied equanimity was for once DIES
troyed. His struggling haste TO pull
his swallow.tail coat out of the other.
and to put it on, was as comical as the
rest Of his mishap. --New York San.

Board Of Trade.

The regular meeting of the Board Of
| Trade was held in the court house, on
Saturday evening. The principal mat
Ter discussed was the opening UP and
improvement Of Il road from Billings to
Mcfarland'5 ranch on Flat Willow
creek, north Of the Musselshell. John
X. King reported that he had visited
the district through which the road
would run, and had found an excellent
place for a good road, leadin. to that
district of country. The road would
leave here at Alkali creek, run up the
old saw mill road to the old saw mill,
cross the divide to the head of Golden
creek, then down Golden creek to its
junction with the Musselshell river,
then across the Mussclshell, then by the
left of the lakes straight through to the
eastern point OF the Snowy mountains,
to Reeves ranch, On Flat Willow creek,
then up Fiat Willow creek six miles,
when it strikes well established road
to Maginnis, which is in good repair.
a certain amount Of grading has to be
done and two bridges to bo put in be-
tween the Musseshell and Flat Willow.
Mr. Golden has offered to do this for
one hundred dollars, and to put up the
monuments necessary to mark the road,
between the Musselshcll and Flat
Willow. Mr. King says that if this
work be done there will then be an ex-
ccIlent road from Billings direct TO
Maginnis.
1t was resolved to allow 800 cash, Of !
the funds of the Board of Trade, for this
purpose, and Mr.. King was requested |
TO take charge Of it, expenditure.

Ii may prove Of interest to the nus-

the intention OF the sheep men OF the
judith valley to ship ali Of their wool to
Benton, and to purchase ali of their sup.
plies here. Last year Il large number OF
sheep men intended shipping their wool
and purchasing their supplies at Bill
lings instead Of Benton, hut they have
siuce changed their minds, OWING to the
supe,i1r Inducements offered by those
cntcyprising firms, Power 4 Bro,

shall see the bulk of the Judith wool

The ROYAL Baking Powder was found,
besides being OF absolute purity, to evolve
the highest amount Of leavening gas Of any
of the powders tested. and hence it was
placed at the head of tie list ana recon-
mcndcd for Covarnment use.
But The crusigl test of the kitchen is.
after all the most satisfactory to the
housekceper. A baking powder that never
sai'a 10 make light, sweet, wholesome and
palatable bread, biscuit, cake, etc, upon
all occasions, is the one that vii! be placed
at the head Of the list by the practical
housewife, and received into her kitchen
for continuous use. This test the Royal
Baking Powder has stood Tor over twenty
years without 3 single fa;tl,ro. and hence
It's reputation as the hest baking powder
made has spread from house 10 house, l.n-
til its use has become as universal as its
merits are unriyalled.
