Honored at Elbow Lake.

Last Thursday night very pleas
ant reception was held at the Park
hotel in honor of JudgeC. L, Browns
electionas associate justice of the
supreme court The gathering was
in the nature of surprise to Judge
Brown, fact which added to, rather
than detracted from its fullest enjoy
ment. About score of his most init
mate friends responed to invitations
to be present, and at about 10 o'clock
were seated to a tacle to the corners
of which bunting was attached, and
extending to the ceiling directly over
the centre Of the table.
Four courses wera served. Mrs. c..
E, Game, Mrs, w. L. Prescott and
Mrs. j. n. Biever acted as walters,
and were, by the way, the chief pro
motors Of the reception, While cho-
colate was being slipped from dainty
cups, DR.. Game as POSTMASTER, arose,
as he said, to the health of the guest
of honor, and then paid glowing
tribute to Judge Brown both as a
Judge and citizen, and told how
proud the people we've of him, and
how glad they we're that he had been
called to place of higher trust and
greater responsibility, and yet how
loath to give him up as a district
judge.
It was some moments before Judge
Brown responded, and it was quite
apparent that he felt deeply moved
He spoke of the friendly relationship
that had always existed between him
and our people, what kind interest
they had always exercised in his we'll
fare, and that, although his new
duties called him to another field, he
always had and always would have
warm place in his heart for his FL
bow Lake friends.
G. ]. Gunderson, of Alexandria, A.
O. Ofsthun and M. Casey responded
to calls for remarks. All of them con-
graduated Judge Brown upon his
merited and we'll earned advance
ment and told how confident they
were that their best interests of all
would be safe in his hands, and the
judiciary elevated to a higher plane
by his election.
For SO modest and unassuming a
man, Judge Brown went through the
ordeal of listening to praises of him
self very well, though he confessed
being quite uneasy. Upon conclu-
sion Of the speech making all repaired
to the hotel Office where cigars were
smoked aud conversation continued
until midnight. Grant County Her

FROM ARTHUR O'LEARY.
The Young Man Tells Of the Reception
at Honolulu.

Col. r. O'Leary of this city has re-
Ceived a letter from his son, Arthur,
who is a corporal in Company X. The
writer gives a graphic description of
the reception accorded the Montana
boys at Honolulu. The following is a
brief extract from his letter:
During the trip there was a scarcity
of grub. and what we did get was not

me had a sort of mass meeting and
waited on the colonel. Then Lieuten-
ant Colonel Wallace and Major Miller

only drawback being bread.
We first saw land about > O'Clock
Wednesday, but did not enter the har-
Dor until the following morning.
When we neared the docks a great
crowd cheered and the government
band played national airs. All was
uproar. About 10 o'clock about one
half of each were given lib
erty until 6 o'clock: the other half were
to go out mex day. Then the ship IN

pected to see barbarians were mistaken.
The natives are ~black-almost half

the best way l can describe them. In
water they are regular fish. III bet
there Is nothing on earth that can equal
them in swimming and diving. Then
there are Chinese. Japanese, Portu-

government grounds-and talk about a
meal-oh. my, bread and butter; sand
witches. coffee, pie, bananas, plneapples,
oranges-all you could eat Of each ana
everything. And while we were eating
we had music. Well. / ate until could
eat no more and then left the table with
a piece of bread and butter In each
hand. After dinner we went all over
the grounds and enjoyed the shade,
music and singing. Meanwhile they
passed soft drinks. We saw the gov

into the offices. From there 1 came

SCHOOL ELECTION TODAY.
Tine Question Of Whether "A Special Tax
of Four Mills shall BE Levied.

To-day will occur the special school
election to decide whether or not a
special tax levy of 4 mills upon the
assessable property within the chool
district shall be made. The money that
will be provided by the special levy
is necessary to run the o during
the coming year.. The levy and the
regular 4 mills levied by the county
commissioners will be somewhere in
the n~eighborhood of $40. 600, and every
dollar Of hat sum will be needed for
a full school term.
The election will be held at the Cen
trail school building on Main street. The
polls will open at 3 o'clock in the morn
ing and will remain open until 6 O'Clock
in the evening. Samuel Templeman,
George 7. King and John Wisner will
act as judges, the latter gentlemen
taking the place of Roger Edwards,
who found 1t impossible to act.
The following is a copy of the bal
lot that will be used:
Shall a tax not to exceed 4 mills
be raised to furnish additional
school facilities for school district
No. 10?
Tax-Yes.
Tax-No.
The law provides that the elector
shall mark u the proposition he does
not want to vote for by making a
pencil mark through the same. The
cross at the side which is used in the
Australian ballot system is therefore
not to be used in the school election.

Ed r.. Hammond and Sam Freeman,
two of Anaconda's ball players, left
last evening for Helena, where they
will play with the ball club of h a
city. Both are rafting good ball play
ers and will materially strengthen the

Hammond having been captain of the
local team last year and a portion of
the present season.
Freeman has been in Anaconda dur
ing the present season and is one OF

Hammond will pitch at least n of the

Der Of company NJ of Anaconda:
On the Pennsylvania, Pacific Ocean.
July 27.-My Dear Brother: l an
writing on board the Pennsylvania on
the Pacific ocean. Shall see land this
evening, at least hope so. / am getting
tired of this voyage. We left Frisco
Tuesday. July II, and it has been a tire
some Journey so far. The vessel is so
crowded there is no room to stand or
sit or to eat. The first two days were
very rough-everybody was sick. The
ship rolled terrible. The weather ever
since has been exceedingly good. We
have had a fair wind for the last two
days, so 1 expect to nail this letter
Tomorrow morning. l was not e
sick, but l was dizzy for two days and
do not feel very well yet; somehow
the sea never did agree with me. | do
not know how long we will stay in Hon
olulu, but / hope they will stay a few
days anyhow. And / hin they will
ieave the 300 California recruits there,
as we have not half enough room on
board. If they don't we will have a hot
voyage TO the stands. We have al
ready on board some cases of The mea-
sizes, some typhoid fever, but no death
has occurred yet. They started to give
us a hungry feeding. The first day, OF
course. every one was sick, so they
didn't kick until we got well. So the ev-
mini of the fourth days sail the whole
regiment started in to eat onions, raw
potatoes, cabbage and everything they
could get a whack at and they started
to holler. II IA the awfullest sight
] ever saw. / thought there would be
a mutiny on board. Kessler got quite
shy, so Colonel Wallace and Major Mil
Ter have charge of the distribution of
the rations now and everything is salts
factory. Wallace is a good man and
commands the respect Of everybody In
the regiment. But Kessler. If he had
any understanding and knowledge OF
this position among the boys, he would
go home and stay home. He is no good.
Land Is just sighted. IL is just 5 p. m,
1t will be morning before we get to the
harbor. 1 hope they will give us liberty
while we remain here, and l think they
will. Lieutenant Conrad is appointed
TO the regular army and will be con
signed to a vacancy probably in Homo
lulu, so there is a chance for some
body. i wish ] could get 1t.
