oest efforts to deserve their continued fayors.

Inc game restriction went out on the 18th.
and the shot gun artists who didn't 90 out
with 1t started early ext morning. We have
already seen some nice punches Of birds
come In, and the toothsome prairie chicken
will be the delight Of epicures from now on.
Games of chance and skill are plentiful
these days and evenings. What with cane
rackets, wheels of fortune, short cards, and a
new diversion entitled 'faro,' there is plenty
of opportunity to give lucre a chance to
change owners. And the chance is taken
freely.
With all material on hand and a big force
of men, the College dormitory is being laid
up rapidly and begins to show its fair pro.
portions nicely. Early in the coming term
1t will be completed and afford excellent
facilities for the increasing number of stu.
dents.
The convocation of the Missionary Do
cese of Montana will convene in st. James

preached by the Right Rev. NJ. N. Gilbert,
Assistant Bishop of Minnesota. Services at
III a. N. and 8 p. m. Other services as an
nounced.
Notwithstanding the large rainfall of the
season, the grain and hay product of the val.
ley is going to fall below average, and in
some places will not much exceed a half
crop. The straw crop is especially short.
There has been too much cold weather for it
to make growth. There are some exception.
ally good fields, but speaking generally the
crops are as above stated.
Manager Mcguire on Tuesday Cancelled
the dates for Lewis Morrison's "Faust" and
"a Dark Secret" at Cottonwood Hall Thurs
day and Friday evenings of this week, and
says "they will appear later" The cancella-
ton is a good one, as after an all afternoon
at the races, and fine moonlight evenings,
people generally are indisposed for the the
alter. We hope, however, the Morrison
Company will come here when they get back
from their ''outing."
MI. Benz. Franklin, Manager of the Frank
lin Mining Co., was in own Monday. The
tunnel on the Jumbo is now in between 200
and $50 feet, with about 100 feet vertical
depth. 1t shows two or three good streaks
of ore, some of high grade, the ore ranging
from 8 to "a inches on the hanging wall. An
upraise will soon be started for air, and the
vein will then probably be cross-cut. Two
shifts are being worked. MI. Franklin, who
is not at all of an excitable nature, thinks
the developments very satisfactory.
We forgot to mention last week that on
the morning of the issue the week before the
editorial wheelbarrow, which we had adver
tised as lost, strayed or stolen, was standing
across our door when we made our morning
advent on the street. Advertising does pay.
The long lost wheelbarrow was restored in
fifteen minutes after the paper was on the
street. We don't want to mention any names
in the connection, but John O'Neill is en-
titled to a great notice with our thanks when
he gets ready to quit this world of sin and
wheelbarrows.
The managers of the several Racing Asso
Citations and the Montana Union Railway
company, having Joined purposes, have
made the transportation of the race horses
and the impedimenta appertaining to them q
great success. The hundred or so horses
from Butte, with all material of the track
camps, were loaded on 81 cars and brought
here as q special with as much care as would
be bestowed on q special car Of railroad in
spectors, and, in three or four hours after
leaving Butte were in their stables on the
Deer Lodge track. They will be transported
in the SAM way to Helena, thence back to
Anaconda, and thence to Spokane Falls.
The people receiving mail at Race Track
think they should have q daily mail, and we
hope they will get it. They removed the
postof6ce to the railroad station, saving the
government considerable money, with that
object in view. It is really more convenient
for mail clerks to deliver mails daily than
three times a week, and in holding over mail
for the tri-weekly service it frequently gets
delayed beyond that. All the difference in
cost would be in the mail train stopping
there, or slowing up, four days in the week,
and the people would be greatly advantaged
by the change. Postmaster Kinney is max
ing application for the more frequent serv-
ice, and We hope he will succeed.

of procuring the best and most improved
