BOHEMIAN. March 26.-The snow is
nearly all gone in Bozeman. The streets
are getting quite dry and green is now
showing through last years dead grass.
The talk occasioned by the robbery of
the Story residence has entirely subsidized,
all the stolen property having been found.
A queer feature of the work of Manning
ham, who is in Jail for this robbery, was
found in going through the Story resi-
| dence, one of the upstairs bed rooms
| showing that not only had Manningham
made himself at home in the culinary de-
partment, opening and eating canned
goods, with some crackers which he
found as q basis for his meals, but he had
also slept in the house. One of the beds
was unmade and the complexion of the
| pillows made it apparent that Manning
ham had not wasted any time in the Law
| atory to the Story mansion. The value
of the stolen property which was at first
placed at 81 900, then 81 200 and so on up,
! has now settled itself at $1,000 as the
value of the property found thus far by
the police and DR.. Garrett L. Hogan, a
son-in-aw of Mr.. Story, who has been I'M
| firing in his search for missing articles.
and decided to hold their primaries on
Saturday evening and the convention on
Monday.
"citzens' committee" met on Satur-
day last and arranged a citizens' ticket,
to be George w. Highsmith for mayor;
NJ. Langohr, treasurer; w. II. c. Stewart,
city attorney, and A. ID. Mcpherson, JUS
tice of the peace. paper has been cir
cuated for the purpose of obtaining the
signatures of one-fifth of the voters of the
city, necessary b y law to make such
ticket legal, and it is claimed has been
signed by sufficient number of voters.
These will be the first nominations placed
before the public for the coming city
election. The democrats will not call
primaries. but as previously decided will
support the citizens ticket, while the ac-
ton of the Citizens league of 100" will
probably be deferred until the republican
nominations are made.
complaint was made to the authori-
ties on Saturday by Mrs. George Kay,
who asked that the county take charge of
her husband, who for some days had been
showing signs of insanity. He was placed
in the county Jail Sunday and examined
on Tuesday. He was found to be in a Sc
rious and dangerous condition, and on
Wednesday morning Sheriff Caldwell
took him to Warm Springs. 1t is believed
that short stay at the springs will cause
Mr.. Kay TO entirely recover, and for the
sake of his family and his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. James Kay of this place, his
speedy recovery is to be hoped for, as Mr..
Kay is most excellent citizen and his
condition is no way due to dissipation.
The sudden death of Mrs. Harry L.
Smith on Tuesday morning was a great

came to Bozeman less than a year ago,
as a bride, and in her death Bozeman
loses one of her truest women, an earnest
church worker.
The STANDARD readers will remember
an account in the associated press dis
patches some time since, giving a synop-
sis of a sermon delivered by the Rev.
Madison G. Peters of New York city, Just
prior the the Castellane wedding, in which
he vigorously arraigned the system of in
ternational marriages in this country, by
which an empty title was traded for good
American gold. Mayor Ramsey wrote the |
Rev. Peters letter congratulating him
upon his advanced thought and open
stand against practice that is making |
our country the laughing stock of nations. |
The reply was characteristic. Mr.. Peters |
said: 1.-The sentiment expressed in your
letter is refreshing to read, in these days |
of flunkeyism, sycophancy and snob- |
ocracy."
1t takes considerable nerve for a demo- |
crat in these times to decline n guberna- |
torial appoint ment, particularly when |
there is 81 900 year in 1t, with annual |
trips TO Minneapolis, Denver and Salt |
Lake; and George L. Ramsey paralyzed |
his democratic brethren in returning the |
appointment of commissioner of building |
and loan associations to tho governor /
with thanks.
William Morris, cashier for Henry Eli |
ing, the banker of Virginia City, has been |
in town for a day.
Quite party left Bozeman for Missouri
the last of the week, when John H. 10y
and wife, George j. 10y and wife and
Mrs. Maggie Monger left for Greentop,
Mo-, where they will engage in farming |
the coming season.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Tudor left for
Sperry, Mo-, where Mr.. Tudor will man
