45East Park St,
BUTTE, MONTANA,

In bringing ourselves to the notice of
the public in this city and vicinity, we
did so expecting that only after hard
and arduous struggle would we do any
amount of business.
In this, however, we were agreeably
mistaken and the liberal patronage be-
slowed upon us by the public shows us
that they appreciate what was hitherto
unknown in Butte, viz; A One Price
Strictly Cash Store. In order TO thor
oughly introduce our name we will,
from time to time, offer premiums to
our customers. We will start ii off by
offering until Thanksgiving a turkey
TO be given away with each $40 pur.
chase.

Meeting of the Union and Its Aims
and Objects

anu
The Non. Partisan Womans' Christian
Temperance Union held brief meeting
this forenoon preliminary to the big
meeting this afternoon which will be
addressed by Mrs. Foster. This Union
has no connection whatever with any
other w. @. T. u, being an indepen-
dent organization.
The term "non-partisan" is employed
because the members propose to carry
ON temperance work without being al.
lied to either of the political parties.

cans, Democrats. Greenbackers and
Prohibitionists. The present member
ship is $50, and it is rapidly increasing.
Connected with it are three auxiliary

An Entertainment rendered the Relief
Association by the Bohemians.
There was an amateur performance
by the Bohemian Dramatic Association
at Lincoln Hall last evening when
"Fanchon" was presented to a large
and fashionable audience. All of the
boxes were taken by leading society
people. The role Of FdnchoR was taken
by Helen A. Engle who was the re-
cipient of many flowers. This lady Is
an accomplished amateur and a graceful
dancer. Scarcely inferior to Fdnchon
was the old Fddet of Mrs. Jean Lock
wood who appeared to divide the at
tention of the audience with FdnchoB
Mr.. b. G. Temple as Father Bar5eGud,
Mr.. f. Forster as LGhdry and Mr.. A.
Barker as Didier were very acceptable
in their respective roles, The other
characters were we'll taken and the
dance in the second act was unique and
graceful.
