Half or Whole Mast ?

There was a question raised to-
day, as to whether flags flown for
Memorial Day should be at half or
whole mast. 1t appears that in
former years some flags were hoisted
one way and some another. The
question was not officially decided
up till 3 o'clock, aud downtown
business houses will likely take their
cue from the American Consulate.
As the procession OF the q. A. X.
members to the cemetery is with
funeral accompaniment, including
the music played, the proper rule
would seem to be half-mast flags
until the return march into town to
quick martial music, when all flags
should be displayed from the tops
OF the poles.

A mixed jury rendered q verdict
for defendant just before noon to-

At 2:D pm. Judge Cooper took

Justice Frear has written the
opinion of the Supreme Court unani-
mously signed, in the appeal OF the
Hawaiian Electric Company, de-
PENDANT, from decree OF the Circuit
Court for specific performance in
favor of the Peoples Ice and Refri-
gerating Company, plaintiff. The
cause Of action was an alleged con-
tract for an exchange Of premises,
which the ice company claimed had
been broken. Judge Whiting Of the
Circuit Court sat in place OF Chief
Justice Judd, disqualified. The
Court decides in favor of the plain
tiff, affirming the decree appealed
from.
"The signature of the defendant
alone, whether vendor or vendee."
the Court holds, "is sufficient under
the provisions OF the Statute Of
Frauds, which requires contracts for
the sale OF lands or any interest in
them to be signed by the party to
be charged Herewith
Specific performance OF such .
contract, consisting OF q written
offer signed by the defendant and
orally accepted by the plaintiff, will
be enforced Notwithstanding want
OF mutually Of remedy, when the
only reason why the plaintiff could
not be held is because he has not
signed"
In conclusion the Court says: "The
disadvantage resulting from want Of
mutually Of remedy is not so great
as might at first appear, for neither
party will be compelled to perform
until the other has performed or
satisfied the Court that he will per
form. But the disadvant age, such
as il is, results from the statute,
which must be followed until alter.

April Fool Day.

The custom Of sending one on q boot
less errand or otherwise "April fooling"
him on the first day Of April is very an
cient. Yet it cannot truthfully be said
that any one is equal to the task Of tyac-
ing it to its origin. Some antiquarians
profess to believe it a survival Of the
~travesty of sending the Saviour hither
and thither, first FROM Annas to Gaia.
phas and then to PLATE and Herod. This
opinion is strengthened by the fact that
during the middle ages that very scene
in Christ's life was made the subject Of
one Of the Easter Miracle Plays enact
ed on the chief streets Of London and
other English cities of the first class.
Even though the above opinion has re-
oeived the sanction Of Brande, Moore
and Hone, j. is not at all unlikely that
it is really a relic of some old heather
festival, such as the Hull festival Of the
Hindoos or the Roman feast Of fools. u
The custom, whatever its origin, OF
playing tricks and pranks Of all kinds
on the first day Of this month is univer'
sal throughout Europe and Is also prac'
ticed in many other countries and un
| der various IN 1t Is a curious fact
that the Hindoo Hull festival, where
April fool tricks of all sorts are played,
Ia held OH the night Of the 8lst Of March,
and the orgies are not discontinued un.
til sunrise on the morning Of April L.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING.
The Question of Paving Central Avenue
Discussed by the Aldermen.

The Question of Paving Central Avenue
Discussed by the Aldermen.
The council met Tuesday pursuant
to the call in special session. All the
members were present except Aid. Han.
son.
On motion Of Aid. Fitzgerald two car
riages we're ordered to be hired, not to
exceed $1O, to enable the council to par.
ticipate in the Memorial day services.
The council then considered the quee-
point was then considered whether II
the city withdrew it's action against Vo.
gel he would do the same with his suit
against the city, but no action was
taken.
The city engineer wanted to know
whether cedar or fir blocks would be re.
CURED as it would take two speciica,
tons and two bids. He stated the engi.
neer's office was crowded with work,
which statement was corroborated in
the ensuing discussion by the mayor
and several aldermen.
The city engineer stated it would take
three weeks to make up the specifica.
tions, though Of course some of the old
Vogel contract specifications could be
used.
Considerable discussion was then had
as to the relative value Of fir or cedar
blocks for paving, and statements were
made that Vogel ought to pay some Of
the city's expenses in supervising work
etc, and that the city engineer ought to
have help.
On motion the city engineer was
authorized to hire competent help fol-
the period Of two weeks.
Reference was then made to the South
side W contract, and the city engineer
said an engineer ought to be there al
the time. The mayor drew attention t.
the constant expense incurred by extrs
help. The city engineer stated thai
grades had been established six times ir
and near the Hotter block.
On motion the city engineer wal
authorized to notify Mckay Bros. t
complete the work in the matter O
sewers as rapidly as possible and strikes
would not be considered. The city at
torney stated that five days abandon
ment Of work on the contract, would
justify the city council completing tn,
work. The city engineer said men wer,
at work yesterday but were ordered ou'
on a strike.
The city attorney stated a specia
improvement district could be created
for Central avenue, and then quoted
from the ordinance how assessment
would have to be paid. Section 440 o
senate bill No. sc of the Statutes o
Montana, approved Sept. 13, 1887, pro
vides that il the expense assessed is owe
S25 per lot 1t shall be paid in four equa
annual payments, but il less it shall b
payable at the time Of first payment
Ii the work is completed between Jan.
and July ! the payments shall be due or
July ! OF each year; but il the work i
completed between July l and Jan. ]
then each payment will be due on Jan.
of each year.
The council then adjourned.
