under the name Of McCauley, charged
with ''ralsing" notes, asserts his inno-
cence. To TRIBUNE reporter he gave q
long account of his experience with the
man Hynes, with whom he travelled and
who he says did "lift" the notes. The
prisoner says that he lived in Great Falls
three years and is we'll known as Mike,
the peddler, although his real name is
Hugh E. Boyle. He claims to have been
employed by Hynes to carry Hynes' grip
drive the team and make himself gener-
allv useful; but had no interest in the
business and is not connected in any way
with raising the notes. X

Pulpits Well Filled Yesterday-The Sol
diers Attend in Inform.
Owing to the fact that delegates to
both democratic and republican conven-
tions were selected on Saturday evening
and that friends Of the various candidates
must button-hole these delegates in the
interest of their favorites, the attendance
at divine worship was not SO large as
usual. @@
At the Baptist services in Minot hall
Rev. Jos Anderson preached an able ser
mon. With the use of the new hymn
books the service has increased in inter-
est. --~
At the morning service of the NJ. p.
church Rev. W. B. Coombs extended the
courtesy Of the pulpit to Rev. L. G. Pow
ers of the Universalist church. Although
not agreeing in all points of doctrine,
Rev. Coombs said that when it comes to
the salvation Of souls we all agree
Christian charity is as broad as the world
and all who are working for the salvation
of souls have interests in common. Rev
Powers then addressed the audience in
the same fraternal spirit and followed in
sermon full OF words Of hope and en-
couragement. He believes that gooG
honest Christian life will do more good
than any creed; that preachers should dc
their work in the name of Christ ant
God, as we'll as in the name of the church
"The churches are," he said, "growine
more liberal toward unsectarian chari
ties" In former times churches gave
for the benefit of their own denomina
tion; now they give literally for the aie
and comfort of the poor.
At the evening service Rev. Coombs
preached powerful sermon, The new
choir furnished some good music. Th'
duet-"Some Day, Some Time"-by Mrs
Brundage and Miss Gremm was except
ionally fine.
At the Presbyterian church Rev. j. S

SOLDIER SERVICES.

Yesterday promptly at 3 p. m. the Glib
son Light Guards marched from head
quarters to the NJ. E. church. The boys,
in their full dress suits, with their new
equipments, were at their best and pres
ented an unusually attractive scene.
On reaching the church the boys
marched in with the soldierly bearing
and precision of veterans. Capt. Jensen's
thorough drill is made evident in every
movement Of the company.
The audience being assembled the
choir rendered the anthem "The Lord is
King" with much power and feeling.
after which Rev. Coombs delivered a
prayer full of JUNCTION and power. The
national hymn was then announced and
the manner in which the large audience
rolled forth the grand measures of this
favorite hymn showed that every breast
was fired with pure patriotic feelings.
The Rev. L. G.. Powers then stepped
to the platform and delivered an able
address to the citizen soldiers, in which
he spoke words Of praise and encourage
ment, and pointed out in eloquent periods
their dutiesto themselves, to the right
to their country and their God.
After the sermon the choir pleased the
audience with their beautiful rendition
of "How Lovely is Zion."
After the benediction the Guards re
turned to headquarters. Thanks for the
excellent music are rendered to Mrs
Sorrick, Misses Wiltse and Gremm ant
Messrs. Wilcox and Hawkins.
The parade drill given by the ligh
guards yesterday afternoon, on Centra
avenue was perfect and brought fourtl
many complimentary remarks.

DECADENCE OF LARGE GAME.

'Tis now thirty-fuuT years since JnO
b. Drake gave his initial game dinner
at the old fremont House. Then the
wild buffalo rOamed over the prairie,
and all kinds of game was plen'eOus
Where the Auditorium now stands
bear could be easily trapped, and deer
was so thick in the vicinity of the
pOst-Office one could Stay them with
a short axe. At the first dinner only
forty was present. Saturday last Mr..
Drake sent out 500 invitations for his
thirty-fOurth annual game dinner.
Two months ago Mr.. Drake began
preparations by sending a man to the
Rocky mountains. Antelope, black
tail deer, elk, sage-hen, ruffled grouse
and mountain sheep will all be brought
from or in the vicinity Of the Rockies.
From Indian Territory will be brought
duck, pheasants and prairie chickens.
The reed aud marsh birds will come
from the State, and Wisconsin will
contribute coOns, OpOssums and SPUR
rels. Those who are fortunate enough
TO enter the banquet hall of the Grand
Pacific Saturday evening, November
., may MUNICH any kind of American
game with the possible exception Of
bison, as no buffalo meat has been
secured yet.-ChicagO Times.
