The balance of our Holiday
Goods must be sold, as we never
carry any over from one season
to another. There are always
some who, in the hurry and ex-
element, are forgotten for the
time being. We have some
very desirable goods left, and it
is not too late to remember
those who may have been left
out. We shall give you an ex-
cellent opportunity not only to
remember your friends, but
yourselves as we'll. We have a
great many goods that are de-
sirable in any home, and every
day OF the year, and at the
prices we shall close them at
they will go quick. We want
to sell every article of strictly
Holiday Goods in less than one
week, and our prices will do it.
All Fancy Goods, Toys, Sill
verware, ETC., will be placed on
our fancy goods counter and sold
at one-quarter less than the
price. For instance, an article
that we have been selling at SIS
will be 1915; So goods will be
$2.25; s. goods will be $3.50,
and SO on. All prices will remain
asbefore, and on every purchase
we shall discount one-quarter,
so that, no matter how much OK
how little you may buy, you will
get one-quarter off. We cannot
change the price on every arti-
Gle, and we think this method
will suit you better, as you can
readily see just how much less
you are getting the goods at.
Remember, one-quarter off on
all strictly holiday goods.
Books, Albums Scrap-books:
In this department it is we'll
known that our prices have
been extremely low, and per-
haps you will not expect us to
name any less price. But We
want to close them all out in
less than one week, and we shall
name the same low prices and
make you a discount of 10 per
cent. AS in our fancy goods,
you will get the discount wheth-
er you buy one book or more,
and everyone is used alike. All
prices are in plain figures, and
the discount is roper cent. less.
For the past week we have been
selling our set books at cost, but
we shall give you the 10 per
cent. discount from these, the
same as on other books. This
will be a loss to us, but it will
be a gain to you. Monday
morning the goods will all be,
ready for you, and the early
customers will get the first
choice. We have a great many
nice books that will be desirable
for anyone to have.
In Silver plated Ware we
have several desirable articles.
We have two Tea Sets, each
seven pieces, and they will be
very cheap indeed at one
quarter less than our prices.
Also, several Berry Dishes and
Children's Gold-lined Cups, all
to be sold at one-quarter off the
price. You will find great
many articles that you will
want when you see the goods

Combining to study Thunder Storms.

BosroN, June S.-The Volunteer Associa
tions OF Thunder Storms in New England,
instituted by the New England Meteoro-
logical Society, in cooperation with the
United States Signal Service, begin to-day,
and provided any storm makes it's APP
pearance, and will be continued through the
three summer months. Over 300 observ-
ers are already enlisted. and additional
volunteers are still reporting their names
at the rate OF ten OF twenty day, so that
a good representation OF nearly all districts
will soon be secured. Persons who are de-
siroue OF assisting the investigation should
address the Boston Signal Office, through
which correspondence will be carried on
writing Thunder Storms" on one corner OF
their envelope. A special feature of the
work is found in the appointment, in ad-
vance of certain days called term days, on
which thunder storms may be expected in
some parts of New England, and on which
all observers are to make certain sys-
tematic records. These term days will be
by the signal office in Washing
ton, and the announcement of them will be
sent by telegraph to all newspapers in New
England

Serenading the Celestials.

The lot OF the celestial population Of
South Butte is not entirely happy one.
A few evenings since the railroad boys ten.
dered tin-pa" serenade to one OF their
number who recently became benedict,
and created such din that the newly.
made bride and groom begged for quarter.
Then the "boys" repaired with their instru-
ments OF torture to the residence of a
moon-eyed heather close by and turned
loose their discordant noise. The Chinese
soul is soothed by gong music, but those
tin-pans were too much even for it. The
China nen stood the racket until they felt
insanity stealing Ger them, and then with
q box OF cigars they purchased silence.

Louis Linnemann's Dog.

An object OF general interest yesterday
on the streets of Butte was Louis Lime
mann's dog. His appearance was origi-
nally attractive. He is OF q breed that dis
plays plenitude Of hair-in fact, previ-
ous to yesterday his capillary was SO lux
uriant as to completely hide his shape. 1t
hung from his body in matted festoons-it
concealed his legs and made his head look
like ball of wool. The hot weather of the
past two OF three weeks made his canine
existence a burden. He was completely
prostrated by the heat and unable to
live without painting. His owner at last
pitied his tropical condition, secured q
pair OF shears. and in twinkling removed
carload OF hair from the carcass OF the
afflicted animal. The dogs body, legs and
head were shorn close to the skin, but ON
his upper lip was LETT moustaehe and on
ering is long enough to make dude ex-
pire Of envy-droops bewitchingly over his
mobile mouth and mixes familiarly with
his Napoieonic chin appendage. His facial
expression is fearful and wonderful. His
tout ensemble is the acme Of righteousness.

CONGRESSIONAL.
Senate.

WASHINGTON, June 9.-In the Senate Mr..
Butler read telegram from the Mayor and
a large number of citizens OF Spartanburg
South Carolina, urging the Senators from
that State in Congress to use their indu
ence in defeating the Oleomargarine bill,
which the signers declared the worst form
OF protection. Let the people buy oleo-
margarine they say, as they would any
other article of food.
After the routine OF business the Senate
proceeded to the consideration OF the bills
on the calendar, under the five minute rule.
Among the measures PASSED were the fol-
lowing:
A bill to relieve the State OF Colorado
from charges on account OF ordinance
stores furnished to the Territory and State
amounting to $33, 1871.
bill providing for the purchase of the
portrait OF Gen. George Fl. Thomas.
bill to establish a new land district in
Wyoming. 1.-THE bill constitutes the coun-
ties OF Jefferson and Crook in that Terri
tory as the new land district.
A bill to legalize the Incorporation OF
National Trades Unions.
A bill amending Section 8, 1893 OF the Re-
vised Statutes, relating to the transporta-
tion of obscene publications through the
mail. [The bill extends the scope OF the
old section.]
A bill authorizing the payment OF 81, 500
to Mrs. Louisa A. Jackman and $4,000 to
the legal representatives of Mrs. Martha
and hazards and losses incurred in convey.
ing information OF great value to Union
officers in Kentucky in 1868.
A bill relating to the Supreme Court Of
the Territory OF Montana and providing
for the establishment OF Judicial Districts
in that Territory. 1.-THE bill makes the Court
TO consist hereafter of Chief Justice and
three Associate Justices, to hold office four
years. The Territory is divided by the bill
into four judicial districts.]
A bill to create two additional land dis
tricts in the Territory of Dakota. This
bill authorizes the President to appoint q
A bill to grant the right of way through
the Fort Bliss military reservation, in
Texas, to the Rio Grande Railroad Com
pany. [B fore this bill passed it was
amended, on motion of Mr.. Edmunds, by
adding a clause. forfeiting the right OF
way if the road is not built in three years
after the passage Of the bill.
A bill referring to the Court OF Claims for
property seized by Gen. johnson in the
UTAH expedition OF 1857. In the consid-
GRAFTON of this bill some little warmth of
debate was developed, growing out OF Mr..
Edmonds' objection to the character OF
proof permitted. there being danger, he
thought, OF it being ex parte.
Mr.. Teller declared it to be burning
shame for great Government like the
United States to keep putting honest
claims OIL for q quarter of century.
Mr.. Hoar-"And then rejecting them as
stale"

ion of the Government. Il vrons waa

done the claimant had his rights under the

done the claimant had his rights under the
law.
Mr. Teller said the question here was
whether thS claim came within the law, and
the facts are admitted.
Mr.. Hoar remarked that the scandal OF
the English Court Of Chaneery, which
had been .immortalized by the
genius Dickens. did not surpass the
treatment by Congress OF the claims
OF American citizens. Men CONT here
year after year with cl inns that nobody
knowing the facts would dispute, but some
Senator who knew nothing about the case
would guess that the facts were not as
represented, though the Committee on
Claims had exhaustively investigated the
case. When the debate closed the bill
passed.
A considerable number of bills for private
relief were passed and the Senate ad-
journed.

WAsHINaroN. June S.-Ths special train
bearing the President and Mrs. Cleveland
and Col. and Mrs. Lamont arrived at the
Baltimore & Ohio station at 7:2O p. m. to-
day. There was no particular demonstra-
tion on the part OF the few people present
except that they crowded as lose as the
police would permit, in order to get good
look at the Presidents bride. Several
gentlemen took off their hats to the Presi-
dent and he acknowledged the compliment
by raising his own hat. Some one started
to cheer, but the President had entered his
carriage and was driven away before it had
been generally taken up by the crowd. The
carriage was driven directly to the White
House, where there were perhaps hun.
dred people, mostly la dies and newspaper
men, on the portico awaiting the return of
the bridal party. The carriage drove up
to the main entrance. and the inmates
speedily alighted and entered the house.
Mrs. Cleveland sps ang out lightly and was
on the portico before the others had left
their seats in the carriage. After divesting
themselves OF wraps and removing the

Eleven carloads OF excursionists went

ing. The excursion was given by the
Ancient Order United Workmen OF this
city, and it was participated in by all ages
and classes Of male and female Butte.
The train arrived at Anaconda at 1925,
and it's human freight was soon scattered
all over the city and vicinity. Many OF
the excursionists visited the famous snel.
ter, and all enjoyed themselves at the picnic
grounds, just above the ''Y," where large
dancing pavilion had been erected by Ana.

Railroad Matters.

A leading topic OF discussion in railroad
circles just now is the proposed widening OF
the Utah & Northern track between Garri-
son and this city from narrow to standard
gauge. The work is going bravely on be-
tween Stuart and Ana conda, and will soon
be creeping toward Butte.
There is some talk OF removal Of part
of the Utah & North rn construction and
repairing shops fr IN Eagle Rock to either
Butte or Pocatello. 1t is to be hoped that
Butte will be selected, for the sake OF the
road as we'll as OF the city. The Company
derives more advantages from Butte than
from any point on it's Utah & Northern ex.
tension, and Butte is therefore entitled to
Nhatever benefits it has to confer.

DOUGHTY ssDR,v EDMUND
Incidents frem the Career Of an Alleged
Bold, Bad Tooth Doctor.

The civil suit OF Bonner & Co. VS.. J. NJ.
Edmunds, the tooth carpenter who was
arrested and brought back from Garrison
by Sheriff Sullivan, was dismissed yesterday
by Justice Lippiccott, owing to non-ap-
pearance for The plaintiff when the case
was called. The suit was entered to re-
cover $42 for goods sold and delivered by
plaintiffs to defendant, and it is surmised
that it was settled by the defendant paying
the debt and costs.
Edmunds' immediate troubles did not
terminate with the dismissal OF this suit,
however. He was arrested on warrant
sworn to before Justice Lippipcott by Miss
Bridget B. Gleason, OF Meaderville, charging
him with larceny as bailee Of $40 set OF
teeth belonging to Mrs. NJ. B. Gleason. This
case was also set for yesterday, but Ed
munds secured a continuance by pleading
that he had forwarded the set Of teeth from
Garrison to Mrs. Gleason, and that they
are now in the hands of the Express Com
pany. A reasonable time will be given for
the arrival of the teeth, and if they do not
materialize the charge against Edmunds
will be pushed by the complainant.
Edmunds' career makes an interesting
story. He came to Montana from, Salt
Lake City, where he left a wife and three
children. A little over q year ago he prac-
ticed dentistry at Glendale where his once
was attached for debt. He pleaded the
exemption act, and judgment against
him for $40 or $50 is now III the hands
of a Glendale creditor. About twelve
months ago he came to Butte and swung
out his shingle as a manufacturer extra ctor
and repairer OF human teeth. Since that
time he has succeeded in running a board
bill OF $41.55 which still remains unpaid,
and borrowed 1925 from Liveryman
Hauser on the representation that his
dentistry implements we're worth $500 and
free from incumbrance, but the tools were
afterwards sold by the Sheriff and realized
only $76. Mr.. Haueer whistles for his
money. It has since been discovered that
a portion OF Edmunds' offiGe fixtures were
never paid for. When leaving Butte he
told reliable gentleman that he was going
to Oregon, thence to San Francisco, thence
to Europe. Some time ago letter was re-
ceived from Edmunds' wife by resident OF
this city, requesting information as to
whether the frisky dentist was about to ap-
ply or had already applied for divorce,
and hoping that such was the case, as she
had been left in destitute circumstances by
her husband Edmunds claims to be a
"bad man." He has told parties in this
city that he Travelled with q combination
OF professional sluggers, and boxed and
wrestled with the best of them. Edmunds
must be either an idiotic prevaricator or
an extremely hard citizen.
