The holiday attraction presented BY
Manager Hanna for today is one that is
always popular, although . certain class
affect TO de.pise it-"Uncle Toms Cabin"
As years roll by the play appears to grow
In popularity. and when presented by such
q splendid company as Sutton Bros. ;
which is the one that appears here. its
perennial freshness Is brought out stronger
than ever. There will be both matinee
and evening performances. and the ad-
vance sale indicates large attendance at
both. OF the company's recent appear
ance in Helena one of the papers Of that
city says:
"Sutson's Uncle Toms Cabin company
drew the biggest sort Of houses at Ning's
Saturday, both ~ the matinee and NJ
night. A year ago the same attraction
under the came management appeared in
Helena, and it gave such . firsi-class pro-

and so it was. A proof of the merit of the
company Was furnished by the fact that q
large number of the people rho attended
the matinee paid their dollar 10 see the
night performances. Nothing il lacking In
Sutton's Uncle Toms Cabin'-she players
are good. the dogs are the genuine breed.
and the ponies are the delight Of the little
ones. The Transformation scene in the
last act Is beautiful one. Between the
acts the Sutton sisters sang and danced in
very taking way, and the Silurian quar-
tette, the best heard in Helena IN many q
day. received repeated encores. The COM
pany may always be sure of hearty re-
ceptlon n this city,"

STANFORD CLAIM.
Olney May Try the Case
at Once.
ATTORNEY GARTER'S VIEWS.
Senator Hills Bill May or May
Not Pass.
1T WILL MAKE NO DIFFERENCE.
The Estate, and Particularly the Uni
versity, Embarrassed-Mrs.
Stanford Is Anxious.
1T WILL MAKE NO DIFFERENCE.

Congressman Maguire's views on the
bill introduced by Senator Hill. providing
for the immediate trial OF the Govern
ment's suit against the Stanford estate,
are not Endorsed by the Governments
legal representative in this city. United
States District Attorney Garter, who will
appear for the Government, thinks that
the case can and ought to be tried at once,
whether the bill fathered by the New York
Senator passes or not.
''The effect of the presentation of the
claim" said Mr.. Garter yesterday, twas
20 greatly EN- bsrrass the administration of
the Stanford estate. particularly with ref
erence to the carrying on of the university.
Money could not be expended owing to
the existence of that claim. Other cred
itors. and the faculty and ordinary trans
actions creating expenses to the university
became Immediately involved.
For that reason Mrs. Stanford and all
persons interested in the estate were
anxious that suit might be brought on the
claim as soon as possible after its rejection
by her. But no part of this claim natures
before January next and then only a small
portion OF it, and the question was 'sug-
gested whether the suit 10 establish
claim could be brought before maturity.
Lawyers familiar with the probate laws
of the state assert that this may be done
beyond question, that provision is made
for the allowance of claims not due and
also for the payment of claims not due
upon offers to discount all future interest.
AS the judgment in such a suit only has
the same effect as an allowance by the ex-
ecutors and the Judge there is no legal i'm
pediment in the way of a suit or proceed
ing to obtain such judgment on such
clam.
The bill introduced by Senator Hill
was probably intended IS settle any pos
sible question or doubt on this point. and
possibly to put at rest any question as to
the court in which such suit should be
brought and finally determined"
My OPINION" said Mr.. Garter in con-
clusion, rs that the Circuit Court has
jurisdiction to try the case, and that the
suit can be brought before any part of the
claim becomes due. and that the bill in
troduced by the Senator from New York
is unnecessary. I am unable to say whether
Mr.. Olney will or will not order the suit
brought Immediately. but that it can De
brought at once l am satisfied, for ! have
investigated the matter thoroughly"
