The people of Philipsburg and Granite
are anxious for n change in the tram
schedule on their branch. As the train
runs at present, it leaves Philipsbure IN
the morning and reaches Drummond IN
time to connect with the west bound ex-
press. 1t remains at Drummond until
after the arrival of the east bound over
land and does not reach Philipsburg on
the return trip until 8 o'clock in the even
ing, too late for bushes men to get their
mail. This makes il impossible Tor ousl-
ness letters to be answered without de-
lay of "a hours. The people of the Burg
state that as nine-tenths of their business
is with the East, they would rather the
train would pull out of Drummond imme-
diately after the arrival of No. l, the west
bound train. This would necessitatc
layover at Drummond for all travellers
from the West, but that is considered n
slight inconvenience compared with the
annoyance caused to the business men OF
Philpsburg by the present arrangement.
A petition has been circulated asking that
a change be made, and it is said that 1t
has received the signatures OF all Inc
prominent business men of the two
mountain towns.

stood with the club. And when he found
how solid he was. he promptly decide to
stay where he. had n soft snap. The
Scribe kicked himself for his part in the
presentation proceedings of last week
and especially because he had insisted
upon singing 1.-THE Vacant Chair" 1t
was an imposition, he said, and The
President ought to be Impeached.
Peace was finally restored when The
President allowed the members to "look"
at the silver flask which was presented to
The President last Sunday. When,
finally, the familiar strains of "Molly and
/ and the Baby" rang out on the balmy
spring air, everybody was at peace with
the world and all differences were for
gotten. The song was sung with such
vigor that passers by on the street thought
that the ice in the river was breaking up
and a large crowd gathered on the bridge.
The first regular business of the meet
ing was tho unanimous election of Fat
Bill to be legal adviser of the club, an
honor which he acknowledged in n neat
little speech, the burden of which was
that times have changed since lawyer
was supposed to wear old and soiled
clothes and to get shabbier as he became
moro famous. ''Now," said Fat Bill,
s'some of the smartest lawyers are the
best dressed men in town." Then every
body applauded.
The President arose with his accustomed
beaming smile and announced that he
was glad that he could remain in Mis-
soula, where he had SO many warm
friends and especially glad that
he would not be obliged to leave the Man
dolin club. "This club" he said, sis des-
tined to become more and moro an inn
portant factor in this city's welfare. We
can render much assistance to the board
of trade in the good work which it has
undertaken and think that we ought to
arrange to cooperate with them. We can
help them If we will and am sure that
We will. This city must be walked up and
think that if we start out to do IL we can
wake it up as much as any other aggrega-
ton that 1 know of. Now, let us take
hold and assist in this waking up pro-

ship of The Professor, sang maggie
Murphy's Home" and then adjourned for
| one week.
After adjournment, The Scribe re-
| minded the members that the flask which
had been given to The President had not
been paid for and collected dollar and a
half from each member. As The Presi-
dent was not going away, after all the fuss
he had made, The Scribe insisted that
| Inc pay his pro rata share. This he did
thankful that the whole business was not
charged up to him.

MIssoULA. Feb. 2i.-Thc meeting of the
Mandolin club this evening was not a
long one, as the pleasant weather was too
attractive for the members TO remain
long indoors. There was considerable
business transacted, however, as all the
members were on hand promptly. Lean
Bill looked a little penitent as he took his
seat. but no remark was made, out OF
consideration for his feelings. Fat Bills
dignity had suffered no collapse since the
last meeting and he took pleasure in
showing his fellow members the parch-
ment which he has recently received. en-
ii ling him TO practice law. This excited
unfeigned admiration on the part of all
the members present. The Scribe, how
ever. got INTO trouble by venturing to call
attention to the altogether esthetic
frame which contains the parchment.
The President said that, while the frame
might be a pretty one, il was not IN keep
ing with the dignity of tho club To call at
tentIon to IL, when the parchment itself
was such an important document.
The Scribe got even with The President,
however, when the latter announced that,
after all, he would probably not
leave Missoula. This was an opportunity
not TO be missed and The Scribe made
tho most of II. He roasted The President
