EIGHT MILE DISTRICT.

Carpenters at Work on the New White
Cloud M,Il-Mach merry on the Ground. q.
Missoula, May &c. NJ. Culbertson
terday on a brief business visit. To a
Standard reporter he stated that the
work at the mine is progressing favor
ably and that there is no doubt that
the mill will be ready for operations
on the first day of July. The saw mill
is doing good work and has already
cut 3000 900 feet of lumber. Carpenters
are now at work on the frame of the
mill and il will be raised next week.
Two carloads of machinery are now on
the ground, and two more will arrive
in a few days. Not much will be done
in the mine till the mill is ready for
operation, as there is lot of ore on
the dump that will be used for the first
run. The present indications are ia
vorable for the success of the mine and
the start of the mill will be watched
with interest by those who are familiar
with the property. If the White Cloud
is operated successfully there will be
half a score of claims in the Eight Mile
district that will prove TO be good
mines as they are of the same forma-
ton as the White Cloud and some of
them are much richer. Major janet
son, who has developed this district, is
confident that IL will in time prove to
be one of the great producing regions
of the state. Mr.. Culbertson is direct
ing the operations himself and will
stay with 1t until the mill is in opera
ton. Upon the result of the first run
of the mill will depend the future of
the district in a great measure.

Young of Bradford hall, Suffolk, having
recently died, this historic property is

which the great farmer received some OF
the most distinguished men and women
of his time, was replaced many years ago
by a Gothic mansion, but the surround

many more historic personages visited IL
in the last century Bradfield is sweet,
rustic spot unspoiled by the speculative

field hall is the old London road followed
by Arthur Young when setting forth for
his survey of France on the eve of the
revolution. And just opposite those gates
is the churchyard, a handsome sarcopha-
gus there thus recalling his memory:
let every real patriot shed tear,
For genius, talent, worth lie buried here.
Arthur Young became blind in his old
age, and exchanged speculative agricul-
ture for preaching. When enjoying the
hospitality of Bradield hall in 1889, l
learned that a nonagenarian living at

silver DEMOCRATS.
How w. NJ. Bickford Returns From he
East With Encouraging Words.

Missoula, May 19.-Hon. w. NJ.
Bickford returned yesterday from a
trip to Chicago. and has been distribu-
ting among his friends some buttons
that bear the likeness of Silver Dick
Bland and an endorsement of the Mis-
souri, statesman for the presidency.
Mr.. Bickford said to a Standard re-
porter to-day that there is no doubt
that the sentiment in favor of silver is
gaining strength all through the Mis-
sissippi valley, and that in another
month there will be more delegations
to the democratic convention instruct
ed for silver than any one thinks for.
The Illinois delegation will be for sill
yer, and the Michigan people are get
ting enthusiastic on the subject. In
Minnesota there is a strong sentiment
in favor Of free coinage and Ii is grow
ing all the time. The people of that
state are beginning to see that they
had many friends in the mountain
states that have become lost to them
on account of the position of their poll
ticians and their papers. There Is
pronounced desire on the part of the
farmers and the manufacturers to re-
store the friendly relations that form
erly existed and to restore also the prof
liable trade that was carried on with
the sections that the press and the
politicians of the state have done so
much to injure. In other states of the
central section there is a similar leaven
working and Mr.. Bickford thinks that
there will be a strong silver force in
the democratic convention at Chicago.
Mr.. Bickford also stated that there is
a large number of republicans in that
section who are waiting for an oppor-
tunity to join a movement in favor of
silver. whether IL is in the democratic

Combinations Made in Effort to Elect
bishop lranston

Bishop Iranston
Cleveland, Ohio, May 1S.-Bishop
Newman presided at the Methodist
Episcopal conference this morning.
DIR. J. c. Morris and A. e. Perkins of
Texas, fraternal delegates from the M.
DR.. Morris was shown scant courtesy on
the occasion of his previous appear
ance before the conference. but both
gentlemen were received this morning
with applause.
On the ninth ballot for bishops the
whole number of votes cast was 500,
making 334 necessary to a choice. The
vote for leaders was McCabe, 23S;
Cranston, 236; Buttz, 21S; Hamilton,
159: Nicely, 81; Bowen, IL. No choice.
The result of the ninth ballot proved
a great surprise. The loss for McCabe
was 32, Cranston q, Buttz 81, Brown
90 The gain for Hamilton was SO, for
Nelly 40. This bore out the rumor of
break to Nicely and Hamilton and the
10th ballot was awaited with intense
interest. DIR. Teeter of Iowa moved to
defer all further balloting for bishop
until the next general conference in
1900. No second was made. Bishop
Newman presented Rev. w. l.. Watkin-
son, fraternal delegates from the Brit
ish Wesleyan conference, who said
few words of farewell. Bishop New
mans response was gem, Gaining
forth prolonged applause. The 10th bal
lot resulted Cranston, 259; McCabe,
223; Buttz, 1893; Hamilton, $50; Nelly,
81; Bowen, II. Necessary to choice,

Before the 10th and last ballot of the
morning was announced rumors of a
Cranston- Hamilton combination began
to gain circulation. A union East and

Cranston- Hamilton combination to be
non-effective a trial of a Cranston-
Nicely combination will probably be
made. as the friends of Cranston are
determined he shall win if possible.

Missoula, May 19.-The grounds OF
the Gun club are in the best possible
condition for the tournament, which
will begin Friday. Many improve
ments have been made that make the
range the best that there is in, the
state. and the visitors win have a good
place at which to shoot IL they have
nothing else. All of the arrangements
are complete and there will be no lack
of comfort for the men who shoot.
There are large store rooms for guns
and there will be a refreshment room
we'll stocked. Field Captain Sales has
been hard at work to get the grounds
in shape and the results OF his labors
are to the credit of himself and the
club. The tournament will begin on
Friday but there will be sweepstake
events on Thursday, as there will be a
number OF shooters here at that time.
There are several here now and more
are expected tomorrow.

Hole In the Left FIeld Fence.

The following poem from the Detroit
Tribune has taken the fancy of some of
the local cranks and they have been read
ing and reciting IL until they have nearly
worn out the paper that IL was printed on.
Lest 1t be entirely worn out 1t is repro
duced here:
We could see the pitcher very well.
But not the man at the bat,
Through the hole we found in the left
field fence.
But we never minded that.
A part we saw, and a part we heard,
And as regards the rest.
We used the Imagination heaven
Has given TO boys and guessed.
The sun beat holly upon my neck.
And l knelt in a posture there
That would break my neck to attempt
to-day,
But. of course. I didn't care.
There were two men out. a runner at FIRST
Score tied and upon my ear
There fell. Strike two." from the UNI
pire.
In tones like foghorn clear.
Then a dandy drive that center muffed-
The sun shone in his face
And l asked my surging. clamorous
heart:
will he try to make second base?"
i saw the fielder when he threw,
The HURTING bail deserted.
And heard the coacher hoarssly yell
To the runner there TO slide.
And that was all l saw or heard,
i was swiftly lifted thence
Another boy had claimed his turn
At the hole In the left-field fence.
As | sit in the grandstand here to-day
The conviction comes to me
That the game as a whole is far from
what
Its fragments used to be.
A stated sight by indulgence dulled
Yearns for the confluence
Compelled by circumstances like that
or the hole in the left-field fence.

BASE HITS In DOORS

MissouIa Has the Men and There
VIII No Doubt Be a Splendid
Team There I his Season
Talks by the Players.

Missoula, May 1s-The interest in base
hall in Missoula is not affected in the
least by the wet weather and the boys
who would be in the field are these days
playing over the games OF last season
and the games of the Eastern leagues as
they are reported in the papers. rms
work is done in some warm room ano
the playing of the stars is much better
here than IL is anywhere else. They are
making some of the hardest hits that
have ever been made in this city, ana
their base running is something phenom-
email. Tom Mcleod ventures near these
games frequently and listens TO his colts.
He shakes his head in doubtful sort OF
n way as he sees the men make bases
and never get caught and wonders why
they cannot do il when they are out al
the park This work is good for prelimi-
nary practice but the boys will find that
IL does not strengthen the wind as IL
does to practice on the diamond. They
will notice, too. that while this indoor
work the batter that swats the cover OH
the ball always makes a run. 1t Is not
SO in the real game. There is one thing
that the boys here have TO learn, ana
that is that IL is not the hard hits but
the easy singles that make the score count
up 1t is the batter who tries TO make
safe hit who has the good batting aver
age rather than the one who goes TO the
bat and tries to knock the ball over the
fence. When they get that lesson learned
they will do better work. 1t Is the short
hits and a lot of them that makes q big
score.
That there will be good ball this sea-
son is assured. The first nine is the best
that has been here for several years and
the Garden City team is a close second.
The latter team is new one that Is
made up of the best of the material in
the university team and some of the
younger players that are not in the col
lege nine. This team will be able to give
the Mssoulans some good practice work
and will draw to the city some teams
that would not come to play the first
nine. A game Is being arranged for this
team with the Hamltons for Memorial
day. The game will be played at Hamil-
ton. There will probably be a series OF
these games IL there is not a repetition
of the scenes that made the Arbor day
game an unpleasant recollection. The boys
can play good ball and they will go 10
Hamilton with the determination to win
II IL is on the cards. There is also some
indefinite talk here of a state league TO
include all of the towns that will have
thought that there is interest enough in
the state to make the plan successful.
1t would be go here and IL Missoula can
make IL go here there ought to be other
towns In the state that can do the same.

Instructions From the East-New Head
quarters on Market Street.
The recently selected State executive
committee of the Socialists Labor party
has sent to the national body at New York
a notification that it has been established.
Being the first of its kind on the Pacific
coast the executive committee asked for
instruc tions as to the methods of proceed
ure in ways political under the regulations
and plans of the national organization,
the headquarters of which are located at
64 East Fourth street, New-York.
Under the Socialist Labor party the meth
DDS of procedure differ materially from
those of the other political parties. 1t is
believed that these instructions will reach
San Francisco within ten days. Then the
work of organizing in the Assembly dis
tricts of the city and forming sections and
branches throughout the State will be
begun.
committee E. T. Kingsley was elected as
State organizer and his election will, no
doubt, be confirmed by the local branches,
as he was the only nominee in the field.
Kingsley and Costley were appointed as
a committee to select new headquarters
for the State executive committee and the
county committees. The State organizer
and county organizer, s. Seller, will have
their .offices in the new quarters. In
all probability quarters will be selected
on Market street between Fifth and Ninth.
Besides the offices and committee-rooms
there will be free reading room. where
books and papers on political economy and
socialism will be kept for members.

CONVENTION WILL COME,
The Great Christian Endeavor
Conference to Be Held
Here.
First Step to Raise Funds-A Lecture
at the Third Congregational
Church.

That the great International Christian
Endeavor Convention will be held in San
Francisco in 1897 is now an assured fact.
and steps are being rapidly taken by
the various societies in this City to raise
the necessary funds to take care of this
great convention.
The first society in this City to take ag-
gressive steps is the Third Congregational
Society on Fifteenth street, Rev. William
RAIDER pastor, which is arranging for a
finely illustrated lecture to be given by
Professor G. Wharton James. It is en-
titled Into the Grand Canyon of the
Colorado River, Arizons."
If this lecture were to be given in any
large Eastern city, it would need no COM
ment from the press. for it is considered
by many to excel any of Stoddard's lect-
ures, whose fame is so we'll known in the
lecture world. Professor James has taken
sixteen different trips into various parts
of the canyon, and the illustrations shown
will be from photographs mainly from his
own camera.
Professor James will doubtless have a
large audience to greet him upon his first
appearance in this City for nine years on
Tuesday evening, May 5, when he will
give his famous lecture at the Third Con-
gregational Church. The price of admis-
sion being only 25 cents-no reserved
seats-the large auditorium, it is thought.
should be well filled, not only with En-.
deayorers, but all those who are interested
to hear of this wonderland, about which
so little is now known,
