state, the Philipsburg nine being a stron-
ger organization that Buttc's. The Phil
ipsburg club is composed of gentlemen
throughout and they will always be well
coined here. They play with energy and
determination, and with a weaker pitcher
in the box the Anacondas would probably
have lost. Kane has struch his gait. Az
lovers of good ball should he on hand
this afternoon. when the Missoula Team,
also a very strong organization, will cross
bats with the local nine.
The Missoula mine are expected 20 arrive
on the noon train, and the game this af-
ternoon will De called at 3 o'clock sharp.
Should the drizzling rain Of last night
continue, il will probably prevent the
game; but should il cease fora short time
before 3 o'clock the grounds will be i'm

Hawthorne's Joke ON His Uncle.

Nathaniel Hawthorne's Uncle Manning
was a horticulturist, and in the spring of
ls22 was much troubled by an insect
which attacked his trees, says the Lewis
ton journal. Just at the time there APP
pcared in he Palladium newspaper n
minute description of the insect, its origin,
progress and the best method for exter-
minating il. Mr.. Manning was 80 pleased
with the article that he ordered scveral
copies Of the paper for distribution among
his horticultural friends. Al this time
Hawthorne was a student at Bow
doin college, and happened to arrive
home just when his uncle was receiving
the paper and commenting freely on the
article. Hawthorne said TO a young
friend: II wrote that article" ''But
what do you know about bugs ?' inquired
his friend. "Nothing," was the reply; ~
wrote IL 10 pass away an idle hour, and il
was entirely made up from my imagina-
ton. Now, IL Uncle Robert should find Il
out he would he very angry; so you must
keep my secret. l ave not the slightest
knowledge of this OF any other insect.

AFFAIRS IN The COUNCIL
The Contract System 10 DO Discussed
To-norFoH Evening.
Some of Its Advantages as Com
pared with the Old Plan-Om-
Ger Buohanan's Successor
to be Appointed.

The regular monthly meeting OF the city
council will take place tomorrow night.
The subject of grading the streets by con
tract will be again brought mp for discus
sion. and il is quite probable that some
action on the matter will he taken. A
prominent member of the council, speak
ing Of the matter with a STANDARD re-
porter yesterday, said:
~ think that this is the only proper
way TO have the work done, for then we
are sure of getting dollar for dollar. OF
course, we have a street commissioner,
who has at command several men N
teams for work on the streets, aud the
argument can be made that under the
contract system there would then he
nothing for a street commissioner to do.
This argument is very weak at best, for
IL the city can do without such an official
there Is certainly no reason why the Office
of street commissioner should he retained.
However, there will still be plenty OF
work for him In overseeing the con-
tract work and compelling il to be done
properly. ! certainly believe that should
the appropriation for streets and alleys
he for instance 5000, double the noun
OF work could he done for that amount
under the contract plan. as compared
with the present system. The city used
S4,243 last year for street purposes and
where has il gone tn? The streets have
exactly the same appearance this year as
they did last, and no trace Of any work of
a special character can he discovered. l
most certainly hope the matter will re-
ccive immediate and proper attention and
! shall bring the matter before the council
at the next meeting"
Other matters of lesser importance will
be brought before the council tomorrow
night, including the appointment Of a po-
liceman To fill the vacancy caused by
Officer Buchanan's resignation.
