Feb. %, William Jones, a colored man
who has been i'm this city for about n
year, stole S. in change and some IL
quors from the Centennial saloon dur
ing a few minutes in which the propri-
etor was not around. Saturday Game
Warden James Keown was deputized
to go to Helena and bring Jones back
After getting the money, he skipped,
and ii was understood he mad been seen
in Helena. On Monday morning Mr..
Keown returned with his man, and he
is in the county Jail to await trial on
the charge of breaking into and steal
ing from this saloon the various arti-
cles which he is known to have pur-
Joined. He admits taking the stuff
but declares he broke into nothing, as
the saloon was open and the money
drawer not closed.
The drill by the young ladies at the
Livingston-BoZ High school de-
bate last Saturday evening was the
first presentation of the Delsarte drill
in this city. Nearly every one present
pronounced Ii one of the prettiest drills
ever given here. The movements are
all very slow and those taking part
must practice until perfectly drilled or
every little imperfection will be most
prominent. Miss Helen Clute, one of
the teachers in the public school. drilled
the young ladies for this occasion. The
young ladies were attired i'm loose-fit-
ting cream. white, pink and blue gowns
and each one carried large hoop.
wound with ribbons to match her dress
When the debate between the boys
from the High schools of Livingston
and Bozeman started il was thought
that the city of Livingston had a new
paper MILL and that the boys from that
place were advertising the product of
the new plant. Each young man carried
a large roll of large-sized sheets Of
writing paper to which he could refer
and upon which they diligently scrib-
bled while their opponents had the
floor After the conclusion of the de-
bate. however. IL was seen that al
though the BoZeman boys were loaded
with arguments. they didn't have the
papers for them. That's where Living
ston won, as IL is understood that that
city has no paper mill, and so there was
no advertising fake about IL.
