". How was it in Bozeman?
Mrs. NJ. H. Spencer has received her
stock of Millinery Goods tor the spring
and summer, which she is selling at re-
duced prices to close business. All per-
sons indebted to her are requested to
make payment before the 4th ofJuly, as

The WEIGH Comedy company which
played here Saturday night and will play
tonight is most mirth-provoking com.
pany. We understand that tonight they
purpose to make good many local hits
and those who 60 will certainly find
plenty to amuse them The price, too, q
so low that all can afford to 90. See local
adds.
Robert Mckee, superintendent Of the
Northern Pacific coal mines got two hives
of bees late last summer, says the Liv-
ingston Enterprise, which it is said did
well and made enough honey to feed on
during the winter, and are out this spring
in fine condition. This disputes the claim
that the bees brought out by S. Ken
needy, of I.enton, were the first in the
Territory.
We understand W. W. Anderson has
sued out writ of mandamus against the
board of county commissioners to COM
pei them to make known why they did
not consider his bid for the county print
ing. We wonder he don't sue out writ
of mandamus against the precinct meet
ing last Saturday night for not sending
him as delegate to the county conven-
ton, or for not endorsing him as dele
gate to Chicago.
Mr.. Fee has in his office, at the head
quarters of the Northern Pacific road a
series of photographs of some of the most
striking scenery in the Yellowstone Park.
These photographs are about eighteen by
twenty inches, and are very fine speci-
mems of the art and very striking as
pictures. One of them shows the great
falls of the Yellowstone with a perpen-
dicular fall of 800 feet. The pictures are
equally as striking.
Charley Backes, formerly connected
with the Northern Pacific hotel, but who
recently went to the Ceur dAlene mines
to amass a fortune, returned to Bozeman
to-day totally disguised. He speaks
very discouragingly ofthe new gold fields
and says pork and beans, with an occa-
sional sandwich of fresh meats consti-
tuted his "bill of fare" daily. He will
remain in Bozeman where snow balls are
scarce and high living good.
C. w. Case has returned from a bust
ness trip to Helena and Butte in the in
terest of Nelson Story. He succeeded in
disposing of six carloads Of -four and
other mill products. He thinks fine
trade can be built up in the west for Gal
latin valley products. Flour is handled
in Butte from California, being shipped
from Stockton, California, for 81 per hun
dred, a distance of twelve hundred miles,
while it costs from Bohemian to Butte,
about one hundred and fifty miles, 81
cents per hundred. We want another
railroad

Glendale, Thomas Blakely, in cowardly
manner from behind struck Jos. Shep-
herd in the back of the head with billet
Of cord-wood. Shepherd has not recoy-
cred from the blow and he never will,
but being man of strong constitution
he is gradually and surely dying. Blakely
skipped, and although the officers have
been actively huntin. him, he is still at
large. Sheriff Reinnardt offers reward
for his capture, and describes Blakely as
follows: Age about 80 years. dark COM
plexion, long black hair, dark whiskers

his face, weak eyes, height, five feet sew
en- inches, weight 100 to 165 pounds and
is broad across the shoulders. wore dirty
clothes, brown overalls, and brown can
vass coat, white slouched hat and looks
like regular tramp and hangs around

cause of justice by copying this paragraph.
