crease, is it any wonder that pair
OF breeding birds command the
fancy price of 100000 to even a.
high as 100000, and that ostrich
farming is a most lucrative business.
Question! Why should not this
Government have experimental
farms for estriches as well as for
fishes and seeds? Kaffir corn has
been introduced, why not the ami
NAL or bird that has brought this
corn prominently into notice. To
do such thing here would require
as in America not only Government
aid and encouragement, but meB of
nerve, enterprise and will to risk
large sums of money in the enter
prise. One of the most notable ar
rivals on the steamship Australia
was the three ostriches consigned
to DIR. Trousseau. Great praise is
due him for his grit and enterprise.
And no doubt all who wish the
future of these islands to grow or
assume proportions worthy of the
worlds recognition wish him well
and that he may live to see his ven
ture crowned with success beyond
his most sanguine expectations. DIR.
Charles J. Skechley, who was be-
fore the Boer wars one of the
largest ostrich farmers in Africa,
in 1882 started from Cape Town
with a troop of picked ostriches
on their way to South America and
after a long and tedious voyage
via Buenos Ayres, arrived at New
York in December and there ship
ped these delicate tropical birds via
Chicago and Omaha to the Coast, 6
distance of $4,000 miles. The ordea
was most trying one, but twenty
: two arrived in California In fail
condition and were at once taker
to Anaheim. A company was soor
formed, the California Ostrich
Co. representing $4,000 capita
DIR. Sketchly as superintendent
The farm on which they wer
placed was about 600 acres, tn
birds were chiefly confined in small
pens forming an L with twelv

! The eggs are large being five t

delight and surprise at the substantial
character of Helena, its mammouth bust

tives stores, beautiful houses, lawns and
gardens, big hotels, the Broadwater resort,

heard from the visitors. Many Of them
met old acquaintance Who laid aside their
business cares to entertain their guests.
They saw much to interest them and the
number and elegance of the humid reds Of
new buildings for business and homes that
are being erected surprised them and left no
doubt in their minds that Helena il situated
in the center of great industrial circle.
Last evening over one hundred of the
party attended the mammouth Broadwater

Mowry gave one Of his daring exhibitions
OF diving and an orchestra furnished
music. As it was impossible to see every
thing yesterday the visitors will continue

The Speedy Roly holy In the sherin's
Hand1s--Othsr Horse News.
The speedy little bay mare, Roly Boly,
which won three races in three days at the
Helena track last week was placed under
attachments yesterday and was brought up
from the race track and placed in stable
ON lower Main street in charge Of the
sheriff. The attachment ia the outcome Of
a family affair. Al Phelps is credited in
public with the ownership Of Roly Boly, but
in fact she belongs to Kate Waller, known
here a. Lottie O'Neil, and who, it is said, is
or has been living with Phelps. A deed on
record here was filed with the county re-
corder last summer setting forth that AL
Phelps for and in consideration of the sum of
81. 700 to him in hand paid, and of which the
receipt was duly acknowledged by Phelps,
did sell the mare Roly Boly to Kate Waller,
with all the other legal verbiage attached to
the document. It is said that Phelps won
800 or $500 last week on the mare, and has
the woman, much less pay her back for the
horse. Unless they kiss and make up. Roly
Boly, which is now worth at least 5000.
may pass into other hands. It is ON the
strength of the deed that the action has
been commenced.

groceries SO much less than the old houses
have been doing. Some do not believe they
are selling so far below the old houses.
But everyone that calls and get our
prices goes away feeling convinced that our
prices are at least from 10 to 20 per cent
lower than the old houses. By doing q
strictly cash business we can afford to sell
goods way below our competitors and we
shall lead in giving the public the most and
