nois, and Bryant & Stratton's CONNER
ial college, Chicago, reached home yes
terday.
Col. J. D. Chestnut came home yester.
day and registered at the LacIede as from

imagine tLis to be from the capital
of the nation, but the last letters trans
posed mean corn dealer.
The meeting of the old soldiers Of the
civil war will be on Tuesday night at the
city hall, and not Thursday night as an
nounced yesterday, because the city
council will meet on Thursday. All old
soldiers are earnestly requested to at
tend 80 that an organization can be per-

A correspondent of the Farm and
Home says that small handful of car
Donate of lime placed in each hill pro-
duced the best potatoes we ever raised,
They are better than any our neighbors
raised; 90 everybody is trying to get our
good potatoes, for ours did not rot as
others did"
With all the acknowledged good of the
silo system, it must be admitted by its
most ardent friends that, as ensilage
trials progress, there is an increasing
variety of opinions as to the advantage
of this kind of food. Everything goes to
show that location, circumstances, ETC.,
have much to do with the outcome.
Ben Barker came into our Office this
morning with face as broad and bright
as full moon, and announced the birth
of an heir, in the shape of an eleven
pound boy. Ben had to swell himself
up and stand on tiptoe to dismiss any
doubt as to which would weigh the most,
Ben or the baby. We are glad to say
both are doing well.
In the remards made by Judge Coburn
yesterday on adjourning court in honor
of Decoration day, an error was made in
copying, which is not correct. 1t should
read: "In accordance with an honored
observance recognized throughout the
nation, this has been appointed as the
memorial day for those who served as
soldiers in the war for the Union, and
who have passed from earth. Upon this
day, WHILE business men close their
houses" etc.
Samuel Word, Esq, stopped in town a
few hours Tuesday, en- route to Bozeman.
He says experiments with coke from the
Maxey mine have, as far as made, been
entirely satisfactory. The Union Pacific
appears to have acquired very valuable
coal interests on the line of the Northern
Pacific, it so falling out that the desirable
discoveries 80 far are nearly or quite all
on even-numbered sections, thus enab-
ling the Union Pacific to acquire them.
We believe the Northern Pacific is now
using coal on its locomotives purchased
from the Union Pacific mines. We learn
from other sources that Mr.. Word is en-
titled to the credit with the U. P. Co., of
working up and securing its valuable coal
interests near Bozeman.-New North
West.
The Livingston Enterprise in speaking
of the Park Improvement company says:
It becomes question of burning import
ance to this country when the troubles
of the Park Improvement company are
to be determined one way or finother.
Whether Receiver Love or Receiver
Hume is finally installed is not agitating
the public mind as is the fact that tourist
travel has begun and there is no accom-
mediation in the Park to receive it be-
yond that which nature has provided.
This will become known and circulated
and will have an effect to check travel
It is of the first importance that the
hotels in the Park are opened soon, and
while we cannot see that this desirable
result is to be hastened by public talk
vet we cannot refrain from expressing
what is strong sentiment in the whole
community of this and the Park region.
