The Bozeman weekly chronicle. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1883-1889, 1884-04-16

By the new schedule Of time on the
Northern Pacific the east and west bound
passenger trains meet at Livingston.
Mrs. NJ. Hanley, widow of the late NJ.
Hanley, Three Forks. was passenger to-
day on the train, and is stopping at the
Laclede.
1t is said that beer is turned sour by
thunder. Bozeman beer still remained
sweet through the thunder and lightning
of our city election.
Livingston has gone crazy on the coun-
ty division business. In their minds
eye they have court house, Jail, Sheriff
&c. What foo.s those foolish people be !!
Attention is called to advertisement in
another column Of 1000 acres Of land,
lying near the city and for sale. This
tract is composed Of the best land in the
valley.
Red Williams has arrived from Paint
ed Robe and says that the loss of sheep
by Sanborn & Ponsford has been very
heavy, only three or four hundred of the
band remaining.
H. Sievert has removed from his old
stand, east Main street, and opened up
his bakery and coffee house, near tho
bridge, and will be prepared to treat all
his customers with the best the market
affords. Give him trial.
The announcement of Butte, Helena,
Deer Lodge, and Bozeman race meetings
this season has ha l the effect of sending
our Bozeman trotters into the hands of
trainers. Several Bohemian horses will
make the circuit and "take the cake"
The city fathers are SO fully persuaded
of the utter impossibility of fire that
they are endeavoring to hire or rent
hose house on side street. Would it
not be good idea to house the trucks
&c over on Bridger creek or Rocky can
yon?
Mrs. NJ. H. Spencer has received her
stock of Millinery Goods for 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
she will then leave for California.
Dick Livingston, of Missoula, thinks
his wife should have all the honors and
privileges from being the first white girl
born in the Territory. Mary Louise,
daughter of A. G. Pelkey and now Mrs.
Livingston, was born at Gold creek in
August. 1862, about two years before the
Virginia City girl came into existence.
Clark & Murphy deserve great credit
and should be literally patronized for the
manner in which they have conducted
the omnibus and transfer line to and
from the depot. The new bus, "Gallatin
Valley Queen" is a model for neatness
and is quite large. They are prepared
now to handle all the travel which comes
along.
As the fire engine proposition was
voted down at the late city election, it
would be well for the leading citizens of
Bozeman to investigate the merits of the
Holly system of water works. An abund-
ance of water and grade that, gives
120 pounds pressure to the inch, within
a distance of two miles from the city
offers superior advantages. In case of
fire, eight hydrants can be turned upon a
fire occurring in any block in the city,
and with sufficient force to overleap any
building in the city.
We have been informed that last night
during the practice of the Baptist church
choir, at the Courier Hall, some one
threw bunch of fire crackers near the
door, to the annoyance of the partici-
pants. We trust that the one who did
it, was not aware of what he was doing;
if 80, language is not strong enough to
condemn such an action. Sec. 1876 page
3S1 revised statutes says: Every per-
son who shall wilfully disgust or disturb
any congregation or assembly of people,
met for religious worship, by making a
noise, or by rude and indiscreet behavior
or profane discourse within their place
of worship, or 80 near the same as to dis
turb the solemnity of the meeting, or
threaten or assault any person
there being, shall be deemed guilty of a
and punished by fine not
less than five hundred dollars, or by i'm
