FOR LITTLE PEOPLE.
a PLEASANT THOUGHT.

Sometimes when get to thinking,
And that's most every day,
have the queerest of fancies
That come in the queerest way.
Many of my thoughts are pleasant;
There's none of them Uery sad,
But one of the pleasantest of them all
Is about little lad.
And. children, I've never seen him,
This little lad of mine,
can tell you nothing about his looks
Or whether his clothes are fine
Or coarse. Sometimes they're shabby,
1t seems, and patched and rent,
But then what matter that, my dears,
To our future PRESIDENT
You see when tiny princeling
Comes to his mother-queen
The booming of mighty cannon
(Though the ocean roll between)
Tell the whole wide world the story
OF the birth of baby King,
And shouts of glad rejoicing
Make the very echoes ring
But when oar little ruler
Our little prince is born,
There may be only a thrush to sing
The news to the ears of corn
And isn't it funny, children,
That some of your hours are spent
(Though you know it mott in school or out
With our future President?
What If his clothes arc shabby
What If his shoes are old?
What If he wears tatered cap
Instead of a crown Of gold.
Let me advise you children,
To follow the Golden Rnle;
Then some glad day you can proudly say
"Why, we were friends at schoolw

In the year 1864, on the 9TH day of
December, the English ship Menai was
crossing the straits and capsized in a
gale. OF the 81 passengers ON board but
was saved; his name was Hugh Will
Jams. On the same day, in the year
17S5, a pleasure schooner was wrecked
on the Isle of Man. There were 90 per-
sons on the boat, among them one Hugh
Williams and his family. OF the three
score none but old Hugh Williams sur
vived the shock. On the 5th day of Au-
gust, 1920. a picknicking party on the
Thames was run down by coal-barge.
There were % of the picknickers, mostly
children under twelve years of age.
Little Hugh Williams, q visitor from
Liverpool, only five years old, was the
only one that returned to tell the tale.
Now comes the most singular part of
this singular story: On the 18th of Au-
gust, in the year of our Lord 1889, a
Leeds coal-barge, with 9 men foundered;
2 of them, both Hugh Williams, an uncle
and nephew, were rescued by some fish
ermen, and were the only men Of the
crew who lived to tell of the calamity.
These are facts which can be substan-
tiated.-Leeds Mercury.

one can claim that we plod along in the

rians" do not belong to MS. First one
places "a shoulder to the wheel then an
other. and as a consequence we are all
humming along at AN easy gait ON the up

Philbrook never has courted IA boom. We
much prefer healthy progress onward and
upward with cool heads and warm feet.
The hotels Of a town are the one sure in
dicator Of ma aterial prosperity. In South
-rn California, several years ago at the
height of the boom, a party Of men would
drive "A stake into the arid sands at some
previously selected site. and in couple OF
months "a mammoth hotel would cover the
spot. Nothing now remained between these
men and a great fortune but to lay out
town lots that extended for miles out into
the surrounding country. all of which were
eagerly bought by lung -emaciated tourists.
Thus the hotel is the nucleus about which
aceumulates wealth to the fortunate Boni-
face, the walters and to all indirectly about
the town. We have ia PbiIbrook two ho-
tells that have always been shining marks
zealously grabbed at by landlords eager to
hurriedly amass wealth. Within a period
of two years our two hotels have had eight
proprietors. Each of these after n short
time has stepped down and out, purchased
u band of sheep and settled down To life
of comfort and ease under the wings Of
"a protective tariN. Our postmastersliip

JUDITH VALLEY LOCALS.

The late rains have started anew the
grass. and the hiilsiles and valleys present
a very lovely appearance to the eye.
Several good hearted individuals last
week worked all day in chinking up the
gaping crevasses in the walls ef the public
hall.
Messrs. Connolly and Talmage. Of Bah
cock n Miles, Billings, were in Philbrook
Monday on business connected with their
firm.
Mr.. Williamson and family. late of the
hotel at Utica. moved to Philbrook Wednes-
day and took possession OF the Hotel
Judith.
The even-year-old son Of Dudley Rickerts
of Utica fell from a horse Monday last and
broke his left arm at the elbow. DIR. Long
is attending him.
Mrs. F. l.. Stephens, nee Ruth Peck, Of
Great Falls, who has been visiting for some
time Mrs Babcock of Paradise valley, re-
turned Thursday evening to her home.
Breathitt Gray returned Sunday from a
three weeks tour Of inspection OF the reser-
walton. He has rented the Utica hotel and
will in the future manage that hostlery.
A part of the Judith roundup. consisting
of 10 King. Charles Beldsn, John Pearson,
Bay State, W. s. Powell and Mike Gurnett,
shipped on Saturday above Armingto ton 600
beeves. The association will work Wolf
creek to Clagett, thence across the Missouri
to the reservation, shipping at Big Sandy.
Last week. while hunting stock about
three miles from Philbrook, William Gray
ran onto "a band Of ?wolves. Had been
in widwinter and the beasts in a hungry
condition, it is possible that the pack
would have taken the law in their own
dooryard.
These beautifal starlit nights are won

With her coming lovelness, aud AS she
eleaves her nightly passage through the
upper deep, bestowing without stint the

hinges, endanger their precious necks, be-
sides laying themselves liable to the pater-
nal supremacy, by swinging upon the front

The citizens of Phibrook, more than
those Of any other town in Fergus county,
appreciate the necessity Of change. As the
