A GREAT FALLS ARTIST.

One Of the most elegant and artistic
signs is to be seen In the front Of Mr..
Ruth's paint shop on Third street, be-
tween Second and Third avenue South.
The execution bespeaks the artist. We
are informed that the design is one of
Mr.. Ruth's own invention, and it places
him at once among the foremost sign
writer's of the West. Such talent will
not long go unrequited in Great Falls.

THE BELT COAL FIELDS.

New: extensions are being constantly
opened in the Great Belt coal fields.
They have recently been traced as far as
Mr.. Armington's ranch, about three miles
up the creek. There are four principal
openings, from which considerable guam
titles of coal have been taken-the
Castner, the Millard, the Brown and the
Watson-all we'll developed, with rooms,
tunnels, ETC., veins of fine bituminous
coal; the first named having an 8O0-foot
tunnel.
