RAN AGAINST A SNAC
The County Can't Pay Bills Against
the Women and Children'S Home.
DECLARED TO BE ILLEGAL
The State Law Provides That
Homeless and Destitute Chill
dren Shall Be Cared for
at Twin Bridges.

The scheme by which the county
was to take hold of the Women &
Children's home. pay of its indebted
ness and run 1t as county institution
has run up against a very serious OBJ
struction which may result in defeating
IL completely. When the commissioners
last week. in conformity with the nu-
merously signed petition, decided to
take charge of the institution and or
dered all persons holding claims against
the home to present them to the coun-
ty auditor, they had not reckoned on
Mr.. Winters opposition. When the
bills began coming in Mr. Winters de-
termined to take no responsibilities up
on his shoulders that did not properly
belong there, so he indicted a brief set
of queries which ne submitted to
County Attorney Wines. He wanted to
know If IL were legal or proper to audit
such bills as claims against the county
and recommend them to be paid. Mr.
Wines answer to the question was
brief. He simply said mo"
Mr.. Winters next question was IL a
petition OF taxpayers requested the
payment of the claims could relieve
the auditor or the commissioners of re-
sponsibility. The attorneys answer to
this question was as brief as the other
one and to the same effect. Upon the
II.
Winters sent the bills with a little COM
munication to the commissioners yes
terday and informed them that he
could not audit them nor recommend
their payment. Mr.. Wines added his
verbal opinion to the auditors COM
munication and informed the commits
sfoners that they had no right or au-
thority whatever to assume the debt of
private institution and also said
something about anfnfnfn1 hn ~,
treasurer from paying the bills even If
the commissioners should order them
paid.
Mr.. Wines called attention to the fact
that the state had an orphans home
at Twin Bridges and that all the child
rem being cared for at the Women &
Children's home by the county were
entitled to admission to the state
home. He said the state home must
receive them and he offered to bring
suit against its officers to compel them
TO do so. Under the law all homeless
and destitute children, whether orphans
or not, are entitled to admission to the
state institution, though the officers OF
the institution have several times re-
fused to receive children sent from Sill |
yer Bow county on the ground that |
they were not actual orphans. The |
commissioners are now considering Mr. |
Wines proposition, and 1t is just pos !
sible that the county will not maintain |
an orphans home OF its own. Bids for |
caring for the county children were 10 |
have been opened to-day but the turn |
AFFAIRS have taken may result In a |
postponement of a consideration of |

or the home amounts to about $3.50 |
The largest bill is that of A. Il. Bray

provisions furnished by Savin Lisa.

The Twelfth Encampment of the Sol

WILL BE HELD IN BOZEM IN
Tomorrow Is the Day and Many
@. a. RS Will Attended, Super
intendent of the New Home
to Be Selected.

The twelfth annual encampment @
the old soldiers of Montana will begir
tomorrow, April 3, in Bozeman, anc
there will be large attendance o.
Butte veterans on the occasion. Al
the meeting a superintendent of the
new soldiers home will be selected
The tenure Of office will be for life and
| the salary will be 500 per month
There are many aspirants for the Of
nee, including Captain Glover of the
Butte.
The meeting promises to be the larg-
est q. A. X. meeting ever held in the
state. The Women's Relief Corps will
meet at Bozeman at the same time.
Commander Fisk of the G.. A. r. in
Montana, in concluding an order on the
subject Of the annual encampment,
says:
There is particular incentive to a
large attendance of the comrades at
the encampment-this twelfth annual
reunion of the veterans of our widely
separated membership. Every. year
more and more swells the number of
comrades who are called away, and the
time is not far off when the final as
semblage of the war-Soldiers of els
will come. Not so great a throng of
comrades as that of 1896 will probably
ever again meet in the department of
montana. TheirS VIII be cordial,
hearty, fraternizing welcome at Boze-
mana hospitable and long to be re-
membered greeting.-a red letter event
in the history of the Grand Army in
this commonwealth. The comrades
realize that none others in the broad
land stand higher in their country's
consecrated order and that every in
dividual member shares in the honor
able prestige which his department has
won.
Montana at the head of the depart
ments, IS the proud record inscribed at
national headquarters. For a second
time in the present year the adjutant
general comedies this high honor to the
department of Montana-a foremost
place only once before attained since
the formation of the order in this state
With rejoicing hearts the Montana
comrades will gather together and cele-
brate the honors that are justly theirs.
The commander congratulates the exc
cutive staff, the commanders and other
officers of posts, and all contributing
agencies of the department organiza- /
ton, that the Grand Army of Montana /
holds fast to the first place and that 4
there is no disposition anywhere shown /
TO let go. Let us all meet and grasp |
hands on the 9th at Bozeman."

From the London Globe.
The story of Cinderella is slbstan-
TALLY the same as that told of Rhodopis
and Psammitichus by ELAN, who lived
in Rome in the third century of the
Christian era. The story, as told by
ELAN, is that while Rhodopis was
bathing an eagle carried away one of
her sandals and dropped it near the
feet or Psammitichus, king of Egypt,
who, like Cinderella's prince, was
struck by its dlminurive size, caused
the maiden to be sought for, and mar
ried her when found. Make the sandal
a glass slipper and add the ugly sis
tiers for the sake of contrast and the
stories are much the same. The glass
slipper, by the way, is an acknowiedg-

his Has Reference to the Time When
You Must Put 1t Away.
From the Philadelphia Times.
In putting away winter clothing, wheth-
er IL be in the form of personal apparel
or household furnishings, such as heavy
curtains or holdings, ii is necessary for
one to exercise the utmost care in order
to guard against great loss from the raw
ages of moths. No trouble, no matter
how laborious, should be spared, there be-
ing much at stake, and the consequences
being quite too serious to be trified with
in the very least. Heavy curtains, which
are used only in the winter time as a
protection, and all superfiuous bedding,
such as blankets and quilts, should be
exposed to the sun for a few hours, the
curtains being well beaten and freed from
all dust and the blankets carefully wash
ed. Then they should be neatly folded,
wrapped in large cotton sheets and laid
away in the linen press or store room,
upon substantial shelves, which are clean
and dry. accompanied by a goodly sup
ply of camphor.
All heavy articles of apparel, such as
gowns, coats or wraps of any kind,
should be taken out of doors and hung
upon the line to air. after which they
should be thoroughly shaken and brushed
until all dust and dirt of any kind have
been removed, the smallest atom afford
ing food in which moths thrive and revel.
This having been accomplished, the gar
ments should be put away in cotton bags,
made expressly for the purpose, large
boxes or trunks that are not in use 1t be-
ing quite immaterial so long as all air
is entirely excluded.
All wooden underwear should be care
fully washed and dried, then rolled I'D
and put into clean paper sacks, or old
cotton pillow cases-care being taken to
see that there are no holes in them--with
a generous quantity of pure camphor or
moth camphor, the latter possessing the
great advantage over the former of being
much less expensive, although the odor
is perhaps not quite so agreeable.
Bags of all sizes and descriptions are
invaluable at such time of year for
holding articles that are to be put away
until the cold season has rolled round
again. These could be made of any short
and. IL desired. could be adorn-
ed with the owners initials. which should
be embroidered in white or colored Ro-
man floss.
Furs should be packed away in their
own boxes, with plenty of moth camphor.
after all dust has been beaten out of
them.
Felt or velvet hats should be carefully
cleansed by means of a soft hat brush.
then wrapped in tissue paper and nut
away in their respective bandboxes. Each
box, package bag or trunk should. for
sake. contain a label upon
which is legibly written a list of the con-
tents. This will prove a great saving of
lime and trouble.
