An incident of the Benton meeting re-
mains to be told. When all we're assem-

knelt again. Then she espied friend,
and going over knelt once more beside
her. "Don't be surprised" said demo-
crat. "She is praying for the grand old
party; they need it."
Some further details of the entertain.
ment at the M. E. church will be in order
as it was such success. The singing by
Miss Wiltse, Mrs. Ladd, Tracy and Brun-
dige and Messrs. Hawkins, Dodson and
Wilcox was equal to any ever heard in
Great Falls and the instrumental perfor
nance of Mrs. Ladd and Tracy and the
final solo by Miss Wiltse were indeed ar
tistic. The recitation by Mr.. Wilcox was
dramatic and highly entertaining. Rev
Riggin made a few remarks thanking the
people for their presence and patronage
and the singers for their kindly aid and
stated that the musical talent of Great
Falls was equal to any he had heard in
in Montana. The concert proved thir.
The solos rendered by Messrs. Hawkins,
Wilcox and Dodson could not be ex-
celled by any male voices in Montana and
the blending Of the voices Of the ladies in
the duets and Mrs. Brundage's solos gave
melody hard to excel anywhere. The
new church ives we'll filled by a delight
ed audience and as demonstrated Tues
day nivht we have now an audience rooH@
for speaking and singing which will be
richly appreciated in this growing city
The brick church is a success.
