A LEAF OF HISTORY.


Sometimes we make history where we least
intend. One of Dibbin's songs says:
There's bright little angel that sits mp alott
To watch over poor Jack as he sails"
But If there IL any such guardian spirit
watching over editors as they sail In. he
must neglect his journalistic duty sometimes
while drumming the golden harp or shaking
out his pinions after the editor Is out.
Anyhow, we have q little story to tell.
Along In the summer Of 1888 there was or
ganized in Deer Lodge Ladies croquet
club. 1t was q select party Of congenial
spirits, and concluding to give 1t name,
| they determined upon one represented by
the initials G. A. q. p. The badges were SO
printed anil the club was SO known; and re-
markabl= AZ it may appear, the members
kept sacredly to themselves the Specification
Of tile mystic letters. One day Miss Mamie
B. Kelley, in passing our Office, tapped on
| the window, and said: "Wont you put q
notice in the paper that ! want the G. A. U.
P.'s to be sure and meet on the croquet
ground in front of our house at 10 o'clock
Saturday ?" yes" "wiil you, now? sure
enough" Eyes" "All right; good day.
| GOOD day" We thereupon wrote: "3-7-T7
The G. A. U. P's are requested to meet Sat
| urday at 10 a. IN at the usual place.-B. X. )"
And 1t appeared in the NEW NORTHWEST
| Of August 10th.
To find the sequel to this, refer to page 80
| of the History of Montana, where the above
notice is solemnly set forth as part Of the
history Of the vigilantes of Montana. 1t
subsequently TRANSFERRED that the G. A. q. p
club meant the $50 As You Please" club
The notice was intended to attract attention,
and IL did; but we are willing to stand up
and cross our bre asst, and declare "honest
injun," it was never contemplated it should
play part in the history of the Secret Tri
| bunal of Montana.

A cREDirABLE DECISION.
Manager Mcguire Declines to Hippodrome
Sarah Althea Hill.

The manager of Sarah Althea Hill, who
made herself notorious through the Sharon
scandal, and wishes to turn that notoriety
into money on the stage, having written
Manager Mcguire for an engagement, the
following creditable reply was sent:
GRAND OPERA House,
BUTTE CRY, Mont, Nov. 10, 1895.
Charles McGeashy, Esq, Manager Sarah
Althea HUI: With regard to. your application
for dates, terms, ETC., for the appearance of
your ''star," Sarah Althea "HillSharon," I
have none to offer. Had your star been one
who had the rough experience of years and
had devoted herself to her art. raised herself
from the humblest position in her profession,
step by step, by hard work, and only actu-
ated by the ambition that animates every
true artist id est-to strive to EXCEL would
cheerfully endeavor to help her along, and
bid her God speed. But, unfortunately, the
drama is now made the means Of parading
before the public people whose only claim to
recognition is that they had become noto-
rious in some way, or played the leading
parts in prominent scandal. 1t Is to the
discredit of the modern manager that lie Is
eagerly on the lookout for such attractions.
and for every such an one thus forced into a
position for which she has neither talent,
study or experience, 1t Is at the cost of hay
ing some deserving artist, whose lifelong
ambition had been to reach such goal,
thrust back. I, for one, In my small way,
will never aid in such business, and there
fore decline to book your star. The muse.
ums, however, are still open further east.
Yours respectfully,
JOHN MAGUIRE.

Cocoa,ne as a Death d caller.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19-At meeting Of the
Medico-Legal Society last evening attention
was called to the case of one who recently
died of poison from using cocoaine. The
question was fully discussed, DR.. Holcomb
saying he bad heard that fatal case OF
cocoalne poisoning had occurred in Que OF
the city hospitals within two or three days.
1t would be of value 10 hear from DR.. Doug.
las the result Of his experience in applying
nearly every day for several mouths the
spray of cocoaine TO Gen. Grants throat. A
friend of his from Peru had told him that In
that country, where the people have the
cocoaine habit, and where they keep up on
1t for days without food, deaths are not I'M
common. He was convinced that the drug
was one that required great care in handling
and that druggists should label it poison.
Other physicians corroborated these views.
