A most interesting spectacle in the
southern sky, in connection with the
recent near approach of the planet
Mars. was presented on the evening of
Aug. :, when the planet was for some
hours apparently very near the full
moon, as shown in the accompanying
view. When one remembers that the
planet was some 81, 100000 miles away
from us, while the moons distance is
only about 24o, 600, that the diameter
of the planet is just about twice that
OF the moon, and that the planet

fully considered in the making of con-

necessary because there is so much

The Trimming OF Demi-Season Hats.
Black velvet ribbon enters as largely
into the trimming of late summer
hats as it does into the girdles, belts,
choux and bows of light dresses. Its
use makes the hat more capable OF
being worn with various costumes;
and. again, the shadow of rainbow eff
fects produced by contrasting delicate
tints in hat trimmings are as much
sought as shadow or shot effects in

have red ribbons, tulle and flowers

WHEN will the Montana Central
begin running three trains a week?
1t can not be on account of lack OF
business that we have no better train
service because there is a greater
volume of freight business now than
at any period since the railroad
has been built into Neihart. There
is complaint on all sides from peo-
pie who say they can not get their
freight because the service is made
quate and thereby leaving a large
portion of the freight sidetracked at
different points along the railroad.
Our water works on this account
cannot be put in as fast as the con-
tractors desire, this is due to pipes
not getting here to facilitate the
work also there is complaint that we
cannot get enough coal into camp.
1t must be about time the wheat har-
vest Of North Dakota is sufficiently
removed to allow the third train to
resume.

Looking for Paw.

A number of years ago Rev. DR..
Frank Lenig, now of Clifton Heights,
was sent to a country charge to at
tempt to adjust a difficulty that had
arisen over the settlement Of the
pastors salary. He found affairs in
a deplorable condition. The pastor,
who had attended to his duties faith
fully, was sorely in need of money
long past due, having a family to
support, but the officials determined
that they could not, or rather would
not, meet the just obligation. Dr..
Lenig labored with them for some
time, completely exhausting all his
powers of persuasion.
Finally a close listed old fellow
who had hitherto kept silent turned
to the pastor and said, Look here,
do you remember that when your
wife was sick my wife sent her a
pie?" Yes" was the meek but won
dering response. well, that pie
was worth something, wasn't it,
This was too much for DR.. Lenig.
Jumping to his feet and grabbing
his hat he started at once for home.

A BOMB-SHELL.
The Democrats Coming Their Gun
ming Games in Wyoming.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Dec. "a
bomb-shell was exploded yesterday
in the ranks of the republicans when
Governor Elect Osborne quietely
went to the capitol building, took
the oath of office and took possession
Of the governors Office. The oath
of office was administered by a
notary public in the presence OF A.
L. New, chairman of the democratic
state committee and half a dozen
personal friends. Immediately after
taking the office Governor Osborne
issued a proclamation saying that
"having been duly elected by the
qualified electors of the state of
Wyoming and there being no board
of state canvassers authorized to can
vass the state returns and declare
the result of said election for COVER
nor, l have legally qualified as gov
ernor and l call upon all good citi-
zens to aid me in enforcing the law"
Governor Osborne notified the secre-
tary of state, auditor and treasurer
| that a canvas of the state vote would
be commenced Monday next. These
officials, however, refused to recog-
nize the authority of Governor Os-
borne and will not act with him on
the c~anvassing board.
The democrats claim hat the &C
ton of Governor Osborne will COM
| pei an immediate IVA of the vote
of the state and that the result will
be in their favor.

Hon. Paris Gibson, in the Great
Falls Leader, gives a sound and able
opinion in reference to the location
of the State University. The notion
of distributing honors to satisfy local
claims is harmonious indeed but
very little more when the highest
practicability is desired. We con-
slider the senator's judgment to be
the keynote of practicability:
81 am very strongly of the opinion TINT
the question of the location OF the state
university is entirely of secondary i'm
portance to us when compared with the
question of its consolidation into one
magnificent educational institution
which will be a power for good and a
pride to the whole state or its being
scattered into a lot of fragmcntary
schools located in the various cities OF
the state. | believe that no person who
is capable of looking at this question III
a broad and patriotic light and rising
above sordid considerations will advocate
this latter course. OF course Great Falls
would like to have the university. What
CITY does not? But so far as | am con-
cerned I would far rather see some other
CITY get the university in all of its uni
ted stength than to possess one or two OF
its dismembered fragments. All selfish
consideration in my opinion should give
way to the patriotic purpose of estab-
fishing a strong and powerful institution
of learning which will be a just cause OF
pride to every citizen of the state wher-
ever it may be located. | would like TIC
see Great Falls and Northern Montana
occupy this high ground in regard to
the state university and / would like
the press of this section advocate such &
position.
