COMPACT With Austria.

Buda Pest, Jan. Baron Banffy
the Hungarian premier, received the
Liberal diet today, according to custom

Hungary that she must not dissolve

for its maintenance, recent events in
the diet, he claimed, were entirely I'M
justified and shook parliament to its
foundations, and violated it's princi-
pies. Continuing, the premier remarked
that no words We're strong enough in
expression or sufficiently energetic to
condemn these proceedings, but he be-
lieved that with the help of the king,
the Liberal party would be able to find
a way out of the difficulties.

in hand, that lie might beat him. The
ensign got away and jumped q ditch, leaving
the king on the other side, still brandishing
his cudgel. The Colonel of the Regiment

Last of the Doctors Leave the Garden
City for Their Homes.
Missoula, May 2s.-The last OF the doc
tors departed to-day for their homes after
having spent three pleasant days in the
Garden City. The city did not favor the
visitors in the matter OF weather. for she
INDUCED I'm the heaviest windstorm and
the hardest rainstorm hat she has seen
In many a day. but this cut no ice with
the doctors. They made the best of ev-
erything and Missoula has enjoyed having
them here. 1t is a matter of regret that
there were not more doctors of the state
who could find II possible to leave their
homes for a few days and visit with their
associates In this city. but the quality of
the representation made up for the de-
fciency In the matter of quantity and
the association meeting was one OF the
pleasantest that is recorded in the his
tory of the 10 years that the organization
has been engaged in its commendable
purpose OF mutual exchange of expert
ences among members and the discussion
Of the best methods of easing the suffer
ing of those who are ministered unto by
those same.
IL they did not have n good time. both
In the exchange OF experiences and in the
discussion of methods. as we'll rs in the
social intercourse with each other and
with the people of Missoula. then the peo-
pie here are much disappointed and will
try to do better next time.
The sessions OF the association were all
full OF interest TO those who took part In
them. The discussion of the important
topics was always general and intelligent.
The papers were all to the point and the
older physicians. who have been at many
meetings, say that the general tone of the
papers this year was better than usual.
The paper OF DIR. Sandow of Neihart has
been pleasantly mentioned by his associ-
ates as one worthy Of special mention.
His subject was "Peritonitis." and the
discussion that followed Its reading
showed that IL was fully appreciated. The
practical paper by DR.. Griggs of Butte
upon Cataract was listened to with
deep interest, not only by the profess
sional men present. but by those laymen
who were at the meeting. DIR. Griggs
showed by specimens the points he made
I'm his paper and some OF his specimens
were unusually rare. His paper was re-
ceived with generous applause and the
doctor was subjected TO a volley OF cues
tons that kept him busy for half an
hour.
Another of the practical papers that
was read was the one by DIR. Hanson of
this city. II being the history Of a case
that had occurred I'm his practice In this

cessful career In an amateur way.
These talented young women are alike

as Miss Snyder Is dark. They have
each decided to take their mothers

Miss Young is the daughter of Col.

been known that Miss Young was in

with the Intention OF ultimately adopt

addition to her dramatic ability, is
especially proficient in music. These
accomplishments add to a most liberal
education. Miss Young is blessed with
the sort of good looks that are effective
across the footlights as well as on
close inspection.
Miss Snyder's success as a profess
sional is even more assured than that
of Miss Young. She has for several
seasons been a leading member of a
first-class amateur club. Recently she
took prominent part In a comedy, and
did so well hat professional managers
made inquiries. The result was an Of
