Judge McO Oonnell.

The district court here will adjourn
this week after session of two months,
during which Judge Mcconnell has
labored with untiring diligence. He
does not adjourn now because he is
through-for the fact is that he leaves
more cases on the calendar than he has
been able to dispose of-but because he
wishes to go to Tennessee to remove his
family to Montana. He will make
hurried trip, returning in time to pre-.
side over the summer term of the sup
preme court. The judge is building
house in the northern part of the city,
and there is no doubt about his deter
mination to remain in Montana, even
through the political fates should cut off
his tenure ofoliice. The change that he
would suffer In that event would not un-
likely be from three thousand-dollar
judgship to a ten.thousand-dollar law
practice, for he has shown himself to be
an excellent lawyer. Letters have re.
Gently been sent TO Delegate Toole urging
him to secure legislation providing a
fifth judge for Montana. The need of
such a reinforcement of the bench is
growing daily. The only hope of pre-.
venting serious congestion of business
in this county is in making district of
itself, and holding terms throughout the
year, with only such intermissions as are
necessary on account of sessions of the
supreme court. There now is bar of

BADLY BEATEN.


On Friday afternoon last about one
hundred and fifty people stood around
the grounds of the Bozeman baseball
club and shivered. 1t was the time set
apart for the matched game between the
Livingston and BoZeman mines, and also
the time set for one of the most disagree
able wind storms of the season. This,
however, was not at all unpleasant to
the visiting club; In fact, they rather
liked it. 1t was there Mascot. At .
o'clock the game was called, and the
I.ivingstonians went to.the bat, pounding
out six runs the very first inning. This
was rather dis;ouraging TO the home
club, but they manfuly continued to
churn the atmosphere and attempt to
win the game up to the bitter end, The
Livingston man in the box was triile
too swift in his delivery for the Bozeman
boys, and the way they famed out on
his in and ont curves was sight to be-
hold.
While the Livingston nine is net as
strong as Bozeman's team has been. the
constant practice it mas undergone, to.
gether with the well.directed training,
every man in his place and knowing
what is expected Of him, put it in the
first ranks of ball players in this terri
tory. On the other hand, the Bozeman
club has pracliced but three times this
spring, and then not all of its members
were present. The Bozeman club has
some good material in it, and some that
has had considerable training and deve.-
opment. With few weeks of constant
practice, the club ought tn be ready for
the Livingston boys, and give them a
livelier game, to say the least. The
game was carried on with rare good
humor, and nothing occurred to disturb
the friendliness existing between the
two mines. The umpire, from Living.
ston, was fair in his decisions, and en-
| joyed the proud distinction of having
no complaints or "kicks" coming from
the players or spectators. If at all par
tial, he bestowed his partiality upon the
home boys, A very little money was
put up on the game, and that in the
mo- ming bufore the game began. At the
end of the ninth inning the score stood
