DR.. n. X. Pusey, Superintendent OF
the Central Lunatic Asylum, at Lake.
land, Saturday, when, at called
meeting of the Commissioners, it was
unanimously decided to name the
new building in his honor. 1t will be
called "The Pussy Building" This
name will be carved over the entrance,
and a handsome picture of DR..
Pussy will be hung in the main Office,
DIR Pussy has for number of years
been Superintendent of the asylum,
and one of his cherished plans has
been to secure the additions that
would make adequate arrangements
for the care of the poor unfortunates
in his charge. He worked hard for the
appropriation, and when it was secur-
ed the additions were constructed I'M
der his direction and according to his
plans and specifications.
DIR. McNary, who will succeed him,
will formally take charge February
20. The following Monday DR.. Pusey
and family will remove to this city,
having secured quarters in the Ross
more building. DIR. Pussy has earned
rest. and will not resume the prac-
tice of his profession, at least for the
present. DR.. John Young Brown gave
up his position as first assistant phys
ician Yesterday, and DR.. Goslee enter
ed at once into the discharge of his
duties. DIR. Sims, the third assistant
leaves to-day.

The Great Tobacco war.
(From the New York Herald.)

The head of one of the largest St
Louis manufactures of plug tobacco
said to-day: About two years ago we
put on the market brand of plug to.
bacco, and when we figured it out, we
found we had lost just seven cents a
pound. Battle AK Plug Tobacco, 1 am
told, sells for one cent per pound less
than our brand, which would make
the loss on it nine cents per pound.
Battle Ak" however, is superior to
one we put out, and must cost more to
manufacture. Twenty million pounds
of Battle Ak plug tobacco were sold,
on which | believe there must have
been loss Of at least ten cents a
pound, so on this item alone there
seems to have been loss of $1,000
Co.,
From the above statement of large
plug tobacco manufacturer, who evil
IDENTIFY knows what he is talking about,
it would seem to us that the only one
who is benefiting by the Tobacco War
is the man who chews "Battle AK"
for he is certainly getting the full
worth of his money every time he buys

AN ENJOYABLE AFFAIR
Was the Valentine Reception At Bethe
College.

Was the Valentine Reception At Bethe
College.
Bethel College ably demonstrated
last Friday evening how justly she
enjoyed the reputation of causing
her guests to enjoy themselves to the
fullest extent.
In response to number of Mrs
McCalls "At Home" cards, in honor
of the Glass of '97, crowd of guests
which was calculated to test to the ut
most the ability of the young ladies as
entertainers, assembled under the
hospitable roof. The teachers and
the Glass of '96 were also made guests
of the Juniors, and added much to
the enjoyment of the evening.
A post Office, with charming post
mistress, had been established, and
the valentines which the gentlemen
first received, told which young lady
they were to accompany into the re
freshment room, where they were
waited upon by quantity dressed
Freshmen" who displayed wonder
full talent in supplying the wants of
their guests. The refreshments were
the usual or rather unusually ele-
giant edibles which Bethel College
always sets.
After the refreshments had been
served the guests assembled in the
drawing room when the valentines
clearly written were called for, the
reading of which bringing out "roasts"
on the reader, producing great mirth.
Altogether it was a pleasant even
ing, and one to be long remembered
by all.

Coroner Richards submitted his
monthly report, which was approved.
The bills of the Butte Cash Grocery
company for $424.S0; Savin Lisa, for
$l05.74, and f. Holbrook, for s1.75, were
disallowed as not being proper claims
against the county. The bills were con-
tracted by the Children's home.
The commissioners yesterday after
noon made an inspection of the city
stockade preparatory to putting the
county prisoners to work on Monday.
Sheriff Reynolds was before the board
TO discuss the matter yesterday and he
offered some serious objections to the
proposed method. One guard, as pro-
posed by the commissioners. he said,
was wholly insufficient, because county
prisoners are harder class than the
city prisoners. being made up largely
of ex-convicts. The commissioners
agreed with him on that point and de-
cided to put on two guards. The sheriff
also thought he should have extra com
pensation, as he will be required to fur
nish an extra meal when the prisoners
work. but the commissioners did not
consider that. Thirty prisoners will be
taken out Monday. The sheriff has
chains for only "a. and IL Is more than
probable that two guards will have
their hands full in trying TO handle the
men.

a man who, In your estimation. is
competent to Guido the talent of your
own county in making a complete as
sessment of S2S,000,000 worth of proper
~ in Silver Bow county. Such an ac-
ton, in my judgment, points the en-
blem of incompetency on the court
mouse and waves the banner of con-
fessed ignorance before the public
gaze.
Now, gentlemen, even though I
gave you the sunny side of this situa-
ton to start with. by allowing this bill,
your competitors in the coming cleo
ton would have you over a barrel by
virtue OF the following provision in the
state constitution: Section IL, article
IL, the making of profits out of public
moneys, or using the same for any
purpose not authorized by law, by any
public officer shall be deemed a felony
and shall be punished as provided by
law, but a part of the punishment
shall be disqualification to ever hold
public Office again
The law does not authorize the pay
ment OF county funds for the services
OF 80 per cent men. Still another point
in connection with the payment of this
blu Is this: Your legal advisor in
structed you that you had no right to
make such contract, as IL would be
NChti1iy W law. oeCllOn 500 the
political code reads: II the board of
county commissioners. without author

action In the name of the county

no order of the commissioners is neces-
sary to maintain such a suit. In view
Of this fact IL saves the claimant 25
per cent. by having this bill disallowed
now.
I'm conclusion. gentlemen, want to
say that IL would be Ill becoming of a
candidate for higher auditing posi-
ton to approve a bill OF this kind II
the claimants are allowed to proceed /
the taxpayers will necessarily lose as

1t is probable that the matter will
