Mrs. Horst left today for Hartford,
Conn.,, where her mother is dangerously
sick.
The team on Joe Herring's ice wagon
ran away today. Much excitement. No
one hurt. ..
r. R. Hotchkiss, Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Clelland and Miss May Hawkins started
this morning for Belt creek, where they
will spend week fishing.
The case of Frank Gray was continued
until tomorrow in order that Sheriff

Marcus DAILY visited the Rainbow club
last evening. Afterward in company
with T. E. Collins, j. r. Toole, j. K.

Butte.
The great picnic of the Presbyterian
church took place today. The whole
party moved toward the Missouri about
10 a. IN. The wagons were laden with
good things. The children looked happy
and have no doubt enjoyed themselves
hugely. The grown folks must also have
had lots of fun.
Charles Gordon has received letter
from George N. H1llman, official reporter
Of the district, St. Paul, in which he says:

graph and also the graphophone in our
office for some weeks. The former ma

have been unable to use it for practical

form, of its practical advantage for court
work, but we are experimenting and are
hopeful Of some further improvements
being made with the machine"
Mr.. Collett, who has returned from the
Central Park regatta, says that the race
was well contested by the three clubs and
Great Falls won by superior skill. The
| Great Falls team-Payne and Fauquier-

was made. The betting was IN favor the
| Buttes, who were confident of success.
Payne led off in a long, swinging stroke,
which excited general admiration and as

Fauquier unshipped his rowlock twice,
but he and Payne soon made up for the
consequent delay. They pulled for the
shore amid much suspense and came in
five lengths ahead amid deep silence, so
great was the surprise of the competing
crews and their friends. The double
skull racing shell, manned by Shur and
Goodrich, was the finest craft on the lake.
The costume of the crew was much ad-
mired. All shows that Great Falls can
hold her own in aquatic contests and
does not get left.

A PROSPEROUS PAsroRArE.

Remarkable Growth of the Methodist
Church Here.
Rev. F. A. Riggin is preparing to hand
over his pastorate here to the Rev. Mr..
Combe. He was asked by TRIBUNE re-
porter for some "reminiscences Of his stay
in north Montana. &~mu
"When," he replied, "1ny beloved col
league Rev, W. W. Van orsdel and my
self were appointed to Fort Benton and
Great Falls circuit, embracing Higher
roll, Belt and Otter Creek, it required a
ride of 225 miles to reach the field from
our conference, this being then the re-
mote frontier. At Fort Benton we had
parsonage built by Rev. Jacob Mills and
furnished, and little class there and at
Highwood. Our work required stage
ride of 43 miles from Benton to Great
Falls and on horseback or in buggy to
the country settlements. During my first
year my noble colleague and myself,
made regular trips to all of the appoint
ments regardless OF the weather or ex-
penses." NJ
"There has been marked change here?"
"At Great Falls there was not member
Of the Methodist Episcopal church, nor a
dollars worth of property, nor foot of
ground. The bishop who appointed us
gave us the choice of any appointments
in the conference; we felt it to be our duty
to identify ourselves with the brave peo
pie of Northern Montana, why this was
so we could not then tell, but it seems
now more apparent. Our membership
has about doubled. Our Sabbath schools
more than doubled. At Great Falls we
have 35 members, beautiful brick
church, a lovely Sunday school and de-
lightful circle of friends. Our property
here we value at $4,000. We leave our
successor furniture enough to keep house
with, and what we consider the pleasant
est charge in many respects in the confer
ence. There is slight debt on the pro
perty which the charge can wipe OUT
readily.
"You and Mr.. Van Orsdel have been
close companions?"
"Yes; Bro. Van Orsdel and myself are
lifelong friends, to be severed only in
death. We both have labored side by
side for II years in the pioneer work Of
Montana. He on the near side generally
and on the other sometimes, but his
peculiar charms that have captured me
have won others also. We are now
seemingly separated, to be more than
ever united in the near future. We feel
under everlasting obligations to the gen
erous and kind people of this section.
We will forever remain true to their in
terests from our church standpoint and
as citizens of their magnificent common
wealth. Our church and successor have
intended us no injury by our removal
and deserve the same cooperation we
have received. We believe the resources
Of northern Montana greater than human
calculation and expect in the near future
to share in the battle for its conquest.
Circumstances over which we have no
control require change at present, but
we expect to remain in Montana as pio-
ueers, planting the church and helping
to place her where she deserves to he-in
the front rank Of all western states. We
are under special obligations to the Great
Falls TRIBUNE and the citizens generally,
and we hereby tender our gratitude and
acknowledgements"

A Simple Proposition for Benton's Con-

The Benton River Press says that Ben

this season and that Benton is the great
est wool market in Montana. Now Great
Falls has her own notions on this subject.
She does not expect to receive much over
100000 pounds But II any Benton
folks are disposed to bet, the TRIBUNE is
authorized to say that there are $500 on
deposit at the First National bank here
which will be wagered that Great Falls
will receive more wool than Benton this
season.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

The County Commissioners held a

The Clerk was ordered to give notice
of an Election to be held Feb IL, 1889.

seven inches in length, was fixed as the
size of the ballots, same to be printed on

The form in which the ballots should
be printed evoked some discussion. The
law prescribes that each ballot shall
bear the word yes or mo" after each
amendment, but not both words. Either
form was thought to be unfair. The
difficulty was overcome by ordering that
one half the ballots bear the word "yes'
the other half the word "no" opposite
each amendment, thus each voter can
suit himself.
