Mrs. Economical: Is it possible that
they sell flour cheaper at the other storet
than they do at the Bargain store as saw
advertised last week.
Mrs. Wise; Why bless you no. Just
think, they charge as much at other places
for the lone tree, as they do at the
Bargain Store for the Lilly of the Val
ley, which is so much better And
you'll find it just that way with the other
grades, too.

The Great Collector"

Judge W. H. Holman of Indiana is the
economical freak Of the house museum,
says the Washington correspondent Of
for "a years, and during the whole OF that
time he has been cutting down the ex-
pcnses OF the government on every item.
His knowledge OF the cost OF things is
wonderful. He knows TO a cent just how
much every charwoman i'm the treasury
gets, and he a tell you to a mill what
every brick I'm b new pension building
cost. He Is known as the great "objector,'
and he has killed many n DILL by sling
ing out his long finger at the speaker
and saying. ~ object" Judge Holman
is six feet tall and Q foot and a
His business clothes are hung upon
his frame, and nature has been. as
stingy in her appropriation OF fat to him
as he il To the civil service in bis giving
out OF the government funds. His beard
Is now turning TO iron-gray, and his
brown hair has many white RAJ He
IL fond Of tobacco and sits In his seat with
his pencil in his hand and figures and
chews all day long. He is fond Of fine
cut, but when he makes his campaigns in
Indiana he is said 10 carry a plug OF pig
tail twist, which he offers 10 his constit,'
ents. He is too economical to allow his
voice melody and f%nllness, and he rasps
out his speeches with the sound of n buzz
saw when II strikes N mot. His gestures
are In pump-handle style. and he Is, In
short, a statesman OF the Blu Jeans
Williams type. He Is a kind-hearted Tel
low withal, and il as honest as he day IL
long, He Is worth about 100000, and has
a fine farm in southern Indiana.

WISHES TO AVOID LITIGATION.
Erwin Davis Thinks Judge Davis Estate
In Over Estimated.

Erwin lDaSts 1ntnks Judge DAVIS Estate
In Over Estimated.
BY the Standards Special Wire.
BUTTE, April 10.-Erwin Davis of New
York, brother of the late A.. j. Davis, says
that he has come to this city for the pur-
pose of avoiding litigation as far as pos
sible and TO carry out, il permitted, the
known wishes Of his deceased brother.
He said that the value Of the estate has
been greatly over estim ated, and he does
not believe il worth much more than
100000. He said that he knows nothing
of T. j. Davis, who claims to be a son,
and declares that there will be
no compromise made with him. The
matter will come up in probate court one
week from Saturday.
The application OF John A. Davis, the
brother, will probably be resisted by the
claim Of T. j. Davis, who IL is expected
will maintain hat his kinship as a son is
nearer han that of John A. as a brother.
II will then be necessary TO decide
whether 4. ]. Davis claim OF being q son
Is substantiated. and in this way the case
will, il is expected, will be brought into
the courts.

BUTTE, April 10.-A party of sporting
men arrived in town tonight, including
IL. Black of Minneapolis, ]. W. West Of
st. Paul and Frank Doremus of Helena.
Mr.. Doremus was distinguished by the
finest pair Of pantaloons yet seen in
Butte. They were purchased In San
Francisco and ere great. The party Is on
Its way back from the great fight in San
Francisco and stopped over to see Evan
Morgan of this city. Billy Madden
and Jim and Joe McAuliffe
intended to stop in Butte, and give an
exhibition here, but learning OF the rigid
provisions that had been made against
prize lighting or athletic exhibitions here,
they went on east from Salt Lake. Mr..
Blacks chief object I'm visiting Butte was
TO extend an invitation to George Kessler
TO sign articles for q prize fight. Black
found kessler and offered to put up O
forfeit at once for $500 TO 81 900 q side, the
fight sr to %;s tai place in an: town Kess,
was made for Charles Kimmick of Min
neapolis, q young fighter. Black claims
that Kimmick Is only - years old and
fights at a weight of las pounds. He has
participated in three fights in his time.
Kessler referred Black to Evan Morgan
and said that whatever Mr.. Morgan said
49, hS Sbt 81 w hkht AlC Will IkUk.
Mr.. Morgan on being consulted said that
he would not give a definite answer to-
night. but probably would do
SO tomorrow afternoon. He said
the challenge would probably be ac-
cepted, but they desired to think of il
over night. Kessler said he was willing
to fight anywhere except in Denver.
Some places In Idahon near Spokane have
e suggested. II Is desired to have the
match take place i'm Butte, but the rigid
ordinance passed against fighting will
prevent ITS taking place within the city
limits. According to the ordinance ii cam
not even take place under the auspices Of
an athletic club SO long as a prize is
offered to be fought for. II may be, how
ever, that the fight will be arranged I O
take place at the ace track, which is out
side the city limits. As large q crowd
could be gathered at the race track as the
city could furnish, and a ring could be
formed there as well as anywhere. Mr..
Black wishes to leave tomorrow night
and will give the Butte parties until then
TO decide. Mr.. Black was presented by
McAuliffe in a Francisco with a mag
nificent gold headed cane after the
fight,

urday night, and to-day n rumor was cur

STANDARD reporter called on Postmaster
Evans this afternoon and made inquiries
as to the correctness OF the rumor. Mr..
Evans stated that he vas positive it was
groundless, and the only complaint he
had to make was that Jones left work
several weeks behind, entailing much
extra work on others of the force in order
to get the affairs Of the Office into shape
up to date. He also further stated that
while he had not yet made an examine
ton of the books he felt satisfied that the
accounts of Jones would be found all
right and IL n shortage should be discov-
cred il would he trivial and the discrep-
ancy would he made up by the young

BAD MAN WITH A GUN
Jack Dillon Turns Up Again and Is
Promptly Arrested.
HE Actions In q House Which He
Visited Of Such q Suspicious
Nature that the Police
Run Him In.

Complaint was entered yesterday before
Judge Fitzgerald against John Dillon for
carrying concealed weapons. Dillon is
an old offender who has been arrested
and fined several times for the same
offense. On one occasion he took two
women for a drive and after he had gotten
out Of the town several miles, pulled a
gun and tapped one of the girls on the
head with the butt end. knocking her
from the buggy and leaving her. This
cost him $50 and costs. He also
held up and robbed n man some
time ago but skipped out and was away
about n year, returning recently to this
city where he has been quite docile and
quiet up to yesterday.
II appears that yesterday morning he
went into q house on the row and curled
up on q sofa. One of The girls noticed
the butt end Of a revolver p~rotruding
from his hip pocket. The visitor soon
got up and went into an adjoining room
where another man was sleeping, and sat
down on the end of the bed. The female
and adroitly reused the sleeper.
After he became awake she took him into
another room. She then wen after an
officer, and finding Chief Mckinney told
him there was a man In the house she
was afraid Of, his actions being very sus-
picious. The officer went over and put
the man out. He was afterwards arrested
and fined SO and costs for carrying rom
cealed weapons. II is thought that Dillon
went into the room with the intention of
going through the man who was asleep to
secure his pile. Had the man not been
awakened he would no doubt have been
successful.
On still another occasion Dillon was ar
rested on n similar charge. Two guns
were found In his pockets. In this in
stance he showed fight and had 10 he
dubbed before giving up the weapons.
For this he paid so and costs.
