THREE DAYS RACING.
Great Falls Will Have Purses for Fleet
-teeds on July 2, 3 and 4.

Great Falls Will Have Purses for Fleet
-teeds OF July ?, 3 and 4.
Judging from reports it isn't a very
easy task to get up a few days racing in
any of the Montana cities this year.
Several days ago a number OF Great
Falls gentlemen resolved that they
would make an effort to have three days
racing ending with the glorious Fourth.
They have secured the fair grounds and
think that enough encouragement has
been received to order the posters andgo
ahead. They hope to hang up about
$1,000 in purses and this will require a
considerable guarantee to insure the
committee against loss. 1t vii! require
Il good deal of work to put the track in
shape. On the strength of probable
races some horses are already on the
way from Fergus county. The idea is
to have purses valuable enough to call
together a good number of Montana
horses and have enough other events to
make it we'll worth while for people to
come to Great Falls and spend the
Fourth. Following Is the program:
FIRST DAY, July :.
Trotting, 2:39 class, mile heats. three
in five.

hurdles, gentlemen riders, l25 pounds.

The Dominican Fathers viii lie in Great
Falls Next Suuday.
The Dominican Fathers of Minneapo-
lis, who have Just closed one of the most
interesting missions ever held in the
west, at Butte. will arrive here next Sun
day and remain for one week. The gen
tlemen are Revs. Bloomer, Moran, and
McGill, and each are pulpit orators of
repute. This will be the first mission
ever held in Great Falls and will be an
interesting event for the Roman Cath
olics. The priests of the Dominican
order are celebrated all over the world
for their learning and powerful preach
ing. The order was founded 700 years
by the learned st. Thomas of Aquinas,
whose works are known to all readers.
Among the best known of the later Do
minicans in the United States was the
popular Father Tom Burke, whose dis
cussion with the historian, F'roude,
placed him in the front rank of religious
controvertiopalists, Oratory is Il part Of
the education of the Dominican. and ths
coming mission will 70 doubt attract
mary non-C Catholics and be productive
of good results for the church.

To Prevent Wrinkied Stockings.

Pull the stocking up as far as it will
go, then turn the top down outside, SO
the stocking will be double from about
the middle Of the calf to just below the
knee. Then, beginning at the bottom of
the part turned over, roll the stocking
up toward the knee as far as it will go.
The result will be an inward rolled
stocking stopping just below the knee.
Now fasten the band Of the knicker-
bockers below this roll, and the result
will be a stocking which will not wrin-
kle no sag down as it is wont to do with
any and all kinds of carriers, ~elastics
and such like. Wheel.

Three Wants.

Reason whole Pleasure, all the joys of senee,
Live in three words, health, peace. and com
petence.'
So says the poet. Competence counts
for little when one is sick, and peace is
disturbed when health is upset, so that
the poet rightly places health first. To
have good health you must have pure
blood. From the blood the system re-
ceives all its material of growth and re-
pair. The best blood purifier is DR.,
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
which is world-famed and sold every

weak lungs. scrofula, old sores, skin
diseases, and kindred ailments.

WHY THE TRAMP wEpr.

But the Lady Who Dropped the Bottle
Said Never = Word.
A large crowd OF spectators, the ma.
jority Of whom were women, were
standing in front of show window on
broadway one day, says New York
exchange, watching the movements Of
q muscular young man, who was busily
engaged in demonstrating the useful
qualities of a new exercising apparatus.
While the eyes of the crowd were
fixed on the graceful bendings and
twistings of the exhibitor, there was Q
sharp report, as though something
fragile had fallen upon the sidewalk.
The woman from whose hand the pack
age had fallen, and who was picture
OF respectability, stopped and picked
up the paper, which was dripping wet,
and, casting one dcspairing glance at
it, dropped it quietly in the gutter and
hastened up broadway, as though she
had IN important engagement which
demanded her immediate attention.
In the meantime the contents of the
package had been spreading over the
sidewalk, and as the odor of good old
rye insinuated itself into the nostrils of
the crowd broad grin spread over the
faces of everyone except an old trarpn
who sat down on the edge OF the gutter
ana wepu Uluter1y at tlIe sad sight OF
such q waste of good material.

restaurant the other evening says the

their feet up, as it were, while they

Two men with short legs and feet to
match actually kept on tiptoc through
the meal. A few wreathed their legs
around those of the table.
One laid his left foot fat on the
floor sideways, and stood the right one
upon it, changing base from time to
time.
Several hoisted their hoofs on the
chair rung, which brought their knees
so high their owners had to sit on the

mahogany, tangling them up with the

The Inventor of the Safety.

hear of the many people who have in

Due to the Michaux who claimed the
invention for France, and now the d.

due to a German named Philip Moritz
Fischer, of Schwcinfurt-on-Mai who
between 1850 and 1855 built wooden
safety, which is yet seen in the muse
um of that town. The pedals are on
the front wheel, the size of which is

back wheel GO centimetcrs (26 inches),
and the length of the machine is 470
centimeters (57 inches). 1t has spring

lSOS-.-lSNt,

The year 1895 is drawing to a close
and before another issue OF THE HER
AID appears our readers will have wit
messed the opening scenes of the new
year.
During 1895, the country generally
has been uniformly prosperous and
Colorado particularly SO. The phe-
nomenal growth of the gold min.
ing industry at Cripple Creek, Lead
vile and other camps is the cause of
the rapid recovery in this state, and the
most gratifying feature of this return
ing prosperity is the unmistakable
evidence that it has not only returned
for good but that the year 1896 will see
the Centennial State contending with
the greatest boom In the history Of min
ing.
Locally, the past year has been unevent-
full, but substantial progress has been
made, aud the outlook for the coming
year is very encouraging, despite the
grunblings of the malcontents and
acrobatic feats Of the chronic kickers.
During the rear S5 the county at large
experienced fair degree Of prosperity;
cattle brought very good prices, and
both stockmen and ranchmen who have
been lin the hole" for years, Iessened
their liabilities quite perceptibly. Not
the severest winter for
many years. it is not likely that the loss
in the stock industry will be great this
winter for the reason that most every
body now prepares for bard winters,
and 1t is safe to predict that Rio
stockmen will be in shape to
share In the general prosperity evidently
in store for 'o8.

HOW TO KILL SQUIRRELS.
New Method Of Exterminatinx the Pes
DiacoHered by u SnGkSne Man.


Discovered by Spokane Man.
! A. 7. Church, of Spokane, has dis
covered sure way OF externinating
farmer-the ground squirrel.
Mr.. Church's method of exterlnina-
tion, says the Tribune of that city,
comes under three important discover
les which he has made by a close OBJ
servation of the ground squirrels
habits.
l. He has discovered that squirrel
won't dig ont OF hole if any obstruc-
ton is in the way, so he won't have to
dig through solid ground.
=. A squirrel will not dig into hole
if it Is obstructcd so as to make his en-
trance difficult.
3. A squirrel will not traverse any ex-
tent of territory if he is not sure that
there are plenty of holes in which he
can hide if he is pursued
In the vicinity of Mr.. Church's place
he has filed all the squirrel holes with
briar bushes. and for distance of ten
rods the squirrels have entirely disap-
peared. If briar bushes arc not handy,
Mr. Church says wad of paper will
answer the purpose just as well. Mr.
Church has examined the results of
killing squirrels with powder, sulphur
and other materials now in use in the
surrounding country. He is firmly con-
ylnced that, Willie tl.e ----rc-s uced
will kill the squirrels, they will be just
as bad or worse the coming summer,
because n home is already in readiness
for them. If the holes are stopped up
the squirrels do not seem to thrive and
spread over the country. ''Thc eSpcri-
ment, moreover, will cost nothing, and
advise the farmers to try it, said Mr..

Bill Nye's New Year Meditation

Bill Nye's New Year Meditation.
OF course the serious business on
New Year day is to make good resolu-
tions, and no person who respects him
self or has due regard for the prOprie-
ties will begin to smash them until the
brighteyed young cherub whom we
picture as the New Year has been long
enough in the world not to mind hear
ing the crash of the fine china. Some
authorities on the etiquette of the day
say that while the breaking should not
begin before sundown of New Year
day, it may be inaugurated after that
time, as the cherub, being very young,
and tired out with moving in, may be
presumed to have retired for the night.
This, however, is a doubtful point, upon
which it is not safe to act.
Personally, don't begin to toy with
the good resolutions until late in the
