of the Helena delegation arrived. the

evening in dancing to excellent music
in the main hail. while others attended
the banquet and speechmaking which
was held in the lodge room upstairs.

licious luncheon was served, which the
guests washed down with liquid re-
freshments. There was s~peechmaking,
songs. music and recitatiUns by the Wis
iting and local Turner's. many of the
efforts calling forth much applause.
The local committees of arrangement
had everything in shipshape for the en-
tertainment of their guests, and their
efforts were more than successful.

ing's reception were the officers of the
state organization, as follows: Presi-
dent. John Steinmetz; vice president. +.
Koch; secretary, Julius BuntZell; first

The open-air concert of the Anaconda

dreds Of strangers who are in the city

the concert immensely and they were
lavish in their praise of the manner IN
which the numbers were rendered. The
programme as published in yesterday
mornings Standard was carried out
and the execution in every instance was
such as to elicit much favorable com

cases are always very scarce and sell

Wet these people on the graver charges.
1t is probable that the county attor-

make the greater charge stick.
a There seems to be a pretty clear
case against the Lee woman, however.
Casper says that he felt the woman's
hand in his pocket where the money
was, and a few moments later the
woman went out of the house n d!d
not return. The police found the wom-

of the larger buildings. When ques-

had anything to do with the affair, and
further denied that she had ever been

No money was found on her when ar

Howard College

The first term of Howard college closes tomorrow (Monday). and the second term opens on Tuesday. Though the first term has been a most successful one, the sec ond term promises still greater success. In addition to the regular collegiate courses, the college has the advantage this session of course of scientific lectures by men of note. Dr. J. H. Phillips has just finished a course of lectures on psychology, supplementary to the work done in this department by President Roof. Lectures by Drs. Bankston, Led better and Riggs, of Birmingham, and other experts, each in his own line, will follow. The Howard offers unexcelled op- portunities to students and it is safe to say that many new ones will enter for the second term.
 Birmingham feels well-deserved pride in the Howard. The world is hearing and will continue to hear more and more from the graduates of this renowned institution. The demand for her graduates for teachers and other important positions is at this time far in excess of the supply.
