which il about half the sum they expsnt to

celebration Of extraordinary interest can b
arranged. Tho races at tho Fair grounds
will prove good attraction, and the oele-
bration will probably attract several thou
sand people from the surrounding country.
All orders and lodges are cordially invited
to participate.

DUELING IN GERMANY.

Two Deplorable Cases of Death Recently
To Abolish the Code.
London Lancet: Two deplorable cases of
death by dueling have recently occurred at
medical schools in Germany. To one of
these attention has already been drawn
that of the ''candidatus medicus'' of Wurz-
burg, Paul Fleurer, who fell at the third
interchange of pistol shots, after twice
holding out the hand of reconciliation to
his implacable adversary. What action the
local authorities, academic or civic, have
taken or mean to take to bring to justice
the homicide or the court of honor who
aided and abetted him, We have yet to
learn; but we shall indeed be surprised if
the Wurzburg, or for that matter the Ger
man, public rest satisfied with the condem-
nation of the proceeding delivered by the
chief orator, If not the chief mourner, at
poor Fleurer's funeral, that he was the
victim OF an unfortunate prevailing preju-
dlce.'
Meanwhile, we are glad to see that sim
liar tragedy at Freiburg has evoked some
thing like wholesome retribution from q
German Law court. According to the Alge.
meme Zeitung, of Munich, the duel in
which the scandidatus medicus'' Solomon
lost his life has had the consequence that
Uu0 u0IO OI tuo euCOuWte1s tu0 btuOeub
Boring, has been condemned to two years
and three months imprisonment, while the
members of the court of honor have also
been sent to Jail for a period of six months
each." We hope that similar sentences on
the part of the legally constituted tribunals
Of Germany will put an end to a practice
which is virtually satire on their own eff
cheney. For what purpose do courts exist if
not to consider and settle such differences as
these SO recently referred to the arbitra-
ment of sword or pistol? The Emperor
William has adopted measures to abolish
dueling in the German army. Are the uni
versities, in wi III the Fatherland takes an
even greater pride, to lag behind tho mill
tary service, aud to cherish tradition
handed down from times when reason and
right had no better arbitrator than force?
Were the results less lamentable the more
civilized world would find something ludi-
orous in q practice which makes the legal
and medical schools of Germany the
theater of encounters in which law is ig-
nored or defied by its students and in which
medicine assists-though often too late
in healing the wounds inflicted by its future
professors on each other.

SCHOOL BONDS NOT SOLD
Blair & Co. Withdrew from the Bar
gain on the Morning After
the Sale.
Another Firm Appears Willing to
Take Thorn, but the Sale
Not Completed
No work ON the Buildlngs Can Be Com.
mouCed Until This Matter
Il Settled.

Many citizens Of this city interested in
school matters will be surprised to learn
that the 100000 worth Of school bonds
which were supposed to have been sold have
not been sold at all. The school trustees have
been keeping the matter quiet with view to
making another sale before anything was
sold to Blair d Co. through young man
named Williams, who offered a premium of
$500. On the morning following the sale
MI. Williams, who had not been required
to put up forfeit, went to the trustees and
said that his firm would withdraw from the
bargain because the interest on the bonds
was payable in Helena instead of New York.
Then the trustees began looking around for
another purchaser as they had neglected to
bind Mr.. Williams to his bargain by the
usual method of securing a forfeit. The
next highest bid at the sale was made BY
New York banking firm Of Farson Leach &
Co. This bid was premium Of $3.50 above
par. The trustees went to Mr.. Knight after
the 'sauke'' with Williams and said that
Farson Leach & Co. could have the bonds
at their bid if they wished. The firm tele-
Sent a check for forfeit of $1,000. which,
however, is not worth much, as it is put up
with the condition that it may be drawn
down if their attorney renders an unfavora-
BILE report concerning the legality of the
bonds. The sale has been hanging fire ever
since. The firm has been wired for de-
cision Of some kind and no satisfactory an
swer has been received. It looks as though
the firm was first trying to find a market
for the bonds before purchasing them.
In the meantime the season for
building is fast going on and
there is delay to work which should now
be under progress. 1t was expected when
the bonds were sold that the buildings
would be in the course of erection by this
time. They could have been sold to Dem
yer parties but for the present delay on the
part of the firm. The papers, laws, ETC.,
have been sent to New York in the hope
of finishing the sale at the earliest possible
date. The lawyers who have investigated
the matter say there can be no possible
doubt about the legality of the bonds.
They are perfectly good. The board Of
trustees made mistake when they did not
issue bonds for $15O, 900 instead of 800, 600
One of them said yesterday that this was
not done for the reason that they did moi
think the people would stand it. They
have since been convinced that this was q
mistaken idea.
