The First Dram ShoD Bill.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Jan. 10.-The
first dram-shop bill introduced in
the House was presented to-day by
Mr.. Newberry, of Madison. It
amends the Downing license law by
making it compulsory upon the au-
thorities of cities and incorporated
towns to impose city license OF
not less than 5000 nor more than
$4,000 per annum, to be by ordi-
nance of the council. No change is
made in the state license. Mr.. New
berry thinks this will wipe out all
the cheap GROCERIES in the towns
and make the remaining houses pay
police expenses. Mr.. Newberry will
introduce bill tomorrow increas
ing the county license so that the
maximum county license will bs
$1,000 and the minimum $500.

BALL SEASON OPENED.
The Butte and Boston g. Montana Clubs
Chase the Leather.

The Butte and Boston & Montana Clubs
Chase the Leather.
The local base ball season was formally
opened Sunday by the Buttes and the Bos.
ton & Montana nine. Two games were
played by the clubs on the new grounds at
Warm Springs. The first game was called
at 10 o'clock and was o rather one-sided
affair, ending in favor OF Butte by a score
OF II to 1. Kirby and Gleason wers
Butte's battery, and MsGee and Williams
did the fancy work for the B. q N. boys.
The afternoon game was also won by the
Buttes but not by quite so large score as
the first, although neither club did any
particularly brilliant playing, judging by
the score which was II to IL. But five in.
nings were played in each game. However,
ss it was the first playing of the season,
judgment should not be passed too severe
ly upon the boys, as they have not yet got
their "ball legs" Rcik and Cowan were
the battery for Butte in the second game
and johnson and Coombs for the Meader-
vile club. $3.50.
The new uniforms of the Butte club were
very much admired, and their wearers de-
cidedly proud of them. The uniforms are
certainly very handsome. as we'll as dura-
BILE, and Messrs. Calkins & Co., the donors,
entitled to due credit for their liberality in
presenting them to the club.
For the afternoon game q special train oi
seven coaches was run by the Montana
Union. and fully 400 persons were on the
ground. Orton's iull cornet band was
present, and enlivened the game with some
excellent music. The players, as well as
the visitors, we're highly pleased with their
treatment by the proprietors of the
springs, and the railroad company, and
pronounce Murray Miles, travelling passen-
ger agent of the company, q jim dandy
in the way of entertaining patrons OF the

The ripping Nuisance.

A late number OF Puck has an elabor-
ate cartoon illustrating the phases OF the
tipping business, which seems to De much
greater nuisance in the East than as etin
the West. 1t is an Importation from the
old world and an outgrowth OF the caste
system. 1t is a badge OF menialism and an
abasement to the recipient. 1t is train
ing for beggary, and saps the manhood
leaving only fawning or ineolence. The car
toon would indicate that it is spreading to
every phase OF life. 1t is not altogether the
fault of the fellows who take the little
bribes, for they are often paid very little by
their employers, expecting them to black
