The Game Too Small.

Frank Evans was in town Friday. He IS
tourist agent at the Park for the Northern
Pacific road. He comes from St. Paul.
Before he had his trunk checked to St.
Paul On an emigrant ticket he was a shin
ming light in New York society. While
there he learned many bad habits which
emigrated to the rowdy west with him.
To look at him the impression would be
left that he was an ideal of innocence
with lots left. Frank started in life as
one Of the boys and had lots of friends
to back HIM up, and he is the same now
as he was several years ago. Perhaps
the only change that has happened to him
is the impression that no one can live in
Montana without wearing the cowboy hat
While down here friend happened to
ask him how lie found things out here
"Beastly, beastly. These foreign sons Of
guns who come over don't want to play
higher than penny ante with five-cent
limit. What is the country coming too,
anyhOw?'

A Monster Mountain Sheep.

From Melrose comes the intelligence
that Tom Robbins, proprietor of the Mel
rose boarding house, went out one day last
week in search of grub for his boarders.
He had heard that huge animal of some
strange species had been seen on the Nc
Carthy mountain, and thinking the larger
the animal the more chuck for the board
ers, followed in the wake of his legs.
About noon he was chewing some hash he
stole from tub while the cook had his
back turned, and as he was trying to ex-
tract chunk from between two of his
grinders huge mountain sheep approach
ed in how-de-do way, but the runner for
the hash house tumbled it over $50 yards
distance. The head and horns weighed
over 200 pounds, and when tipped the
carcass weighed 500 pounds. 1t is the
largest mountain sheep ever killed in Mon
tana and is proving quite a boon to its
slayer. Reports from the boarders have
not been received yet.

A Case Of Mistaken Identity.


He was leaning with his elbow on the
fence which surrounds the Livingston
stock yards, looking at the sun sink be-
hind the western horizon. A man came
up leading sleepy looking horse.
"Would you like job?"
"Guess would, Colonel"
"Con you ride horse?"
"Ive straddled a mule before, Major"
"Well, here's the idea. I've half made
up my mind that some cuss is stealing
my stock up there on the range. Now
you leap on this animal and watch out for
the varmin.'
On the equine's dorset the stranger soon
sat. The animals ears at once assumed a
perpendicular position while its tail was
drawn between its rear legs. It did not
wait until the stranger got final directions,
but took hurried departure for the range
II never seed that er animal act like
that afore," said the stockman, as he left
for up town.
Several days have already elapsed since

Maxwell Must Hang.

ST. LOUIS, July 15.-Hugh M. Brooks,
alias w. H. Lennox Maxwell, convicted
of numbering Charles Arthur Preller, was
sentenced to be hanged August 81. Max
we'll was brought into court this morning
by order of Judge Won Wagner by two
Deputies. He appeared less hopeful
and Indifferent than he did during the
trial, and before his counsel's motion for
the rehear,ng of his case was denied; he
also had grown pale and wears care
worn air. He has not entirely lost hope,
he says, for he has two chances of escape
by appeals to the state supreme court and
the United States supreme court. This
hope stood him in good stead to-day, and
when the sentence was pronounced the
expression of his face changed scarcely
at all. A motion for appeal to the su
preme court will be filed in few days.

Knocked Out.

Knocked Out
General Superintendent Footuer, of the
Northern Pacific Express company, came
in from St. Paul Monday md went up to
the Park, He was laughing. This was
something very unusual for Mr.. Footner
to do. A tall slim man trotted up to Mr.
Footner, and pitching his hand at him
spoke about Wells, Fargo & Company
leaving the Northern Pacific track.
"You guessed it; that's what you did
You hit it, he he he he hum. Whenever
l look at that sign my lungs heave SC
and my liver becomes so distorted that
my teeth feel as though they had been
bathed in lemon juice

stuck in the lapel of his tanned linen
duster.

gone by. "Never be too free with man

A BOzeman Tragedy,

On Sunday Theobold Brunette and
Douglas Ferguson, both ranchmen who
lived in the Gallatin valley, stood in Lam
mes corral at Bozeman, talking about the
shortage of water in their vicinity and the
consequent troubles among the ranchmen'
They owned ditch in common and had
no trouble whatever, but on the contrary
were friends and long had been. After
they had talked while Ferguson said,
"well I'll see you after dinner" and start
ed away. AS he did so, Brunette said
"you will, will you?" and suddenly draw
ing revolver fred at Ferguson. The
shot passed through the f1eshy part of Fer
guson's breast and did him no serious i'll
jury, though he fell to the ground. Bru-
nette turned away, saying: "There goes
the Cd d-est s. of b. in this
country" and as an attempt was made to
arrest him he put two bullets through his
own brain, dying shortly after, without
leaving any record of his motive for the
attack upon his friend or for taking his
own life. The only plausible explanation
is that the man was taken suddenly insane
a coroner's jury returned a verdict in ac-
cordance with the facts. Brunette was a
Frenchman. He leaves wife and family

A Practical Discourse,

On Sunday morning last, Rev Vaughn
S. Collins, who has closed up his pastor
ial relations with Vienna charge preach
ed a very practical and instructive dis
conrse in the NJ. f. Church here from
these words, "Then answered Peter and
said unto Jesus, Lord ii is good for us to
be here, if Thou wilt, let us make three
tabernacles, one for Thee, one for Moses,
and one for Elias. "-Math. l7ch. yer. A..
This passage was most certainly handled
by Mr. Collins in very mastery man
ner. Powerful impressions were made
upon the hearers minds by the plain
illustrations given. 1t was merely by
incident that Rev. V. S. Collins filed
the pulpit that morning and it can be
asserted truthfully that no wire-pulling
was being INDUCED and no long-planed
and divised means had been executed by
any person or persons to bring that gem
tleman to Newark to preach. Such a fav-
orable impression was made by MIR. Col
Inns, as to convince the membership" of
the church that he would be Just the
man to serve as their pastor the coming
Conference year, therefore paper, call
ing the Rev. V. S. Collins to the PASTOR
ate of Newark and Wesley charge was
placed in the Bishops hands, containing
the signatures of over 100 persons. This
is the only call that "the membership"
have made This movement ON the part
of the people was not with any ill-feel-
ing towards any person or persons, as it
has been otherwise intimated, but this
action was taken merely because Brother
Collins was considered to be the proper
person to serve this church and people.
As the people have not been permitted
to exercise any voice in the matter of
giving "calls" they feel justifiable in this
step they have taken.

Things in the Quaker City.



A cultivated looking man, came into
our Office this week, and handed us a
poem the initial verse If which ran
thus
Spring, spring, gentle spring
The moistening dewdrops on the wing
The modest housewife true TO her trust
Sings out again--Get up and dustp
For Spring is here, in garb of green
housekeeping days pop up again.
We advised him to buy out the orange
crop of Florida, that was so sadly nipped
by the frost, and make an "aspeal" to his
fellow citizens to save him from being
sent to the alnshouse.
The Norm IL question will not down,
no matter how we try to smother it with
law. 1t seems that half Of our fellow
citizens are jealous of the male portion
of these outlaws because they can corner
as many wiz, as the market can supply.
The great point with us to fathom is
how any human sane man can get along
with one hundred wives when here in
our highly cultivated society men find it
difficult to live with one, filling our di-
vorce courts with unsavory scandals.
Mormanism should be stamped out, but
their is system of Mormanism INDUCED
in among us that also should secure
harsh measures, and the sooner men and
women learn that the marriage contract
is sacred compact broken only by death
and dishonor the better it will be for our
own national welfrc The great incen-
tive that underlies this moral fabric is
more--men and more-women.
Gladstone is n jolly old man, He chops
his wood in the country, and then come
into the city and eats his chops and be-
tween these diversions he builds up one
party and pulls down another. Truly he
is Gladstone or brick.
There is one thing about the muddle
over the Presidential appointments
which are amusing, and that is the stiff
ness of the Presidents back bone. When
he says that the Senate can't have any
thing off his pile, it reminds one of the
sermon preached by the hard-shell Bap-
fist minister when he expounded the
text, "And they shall gnaw file" The
question is rasping one all around.
In our younger days we were some
what doubtful about the Darby ram
story, but we are not so any more.
