HER DEBUT NEXT MONDAY
Mrs. Letter Will Appear in New
York in "a Stolen Kiss"
SHE'S A CENTERVILLE GIRL
Her Differences With the Letter Family
Have Attracted Much Attention and
Her Entrance Upon the Stage Is
Watched With Interest.

Kate Churchill, the Centerville girl
whose career since she became Mrs.
T. Benton Letter, has been followed
with much interest by many of her
friends and acquaintance in Butte and
elsewhere, will make her debut on the
stage next Monday. She will make her
first appearance in New York and will
be supported by Wright Huntington,
an actor who is also well known in
Butte, where he headed stock COM
pany which played summer season
at the Grand The New York Tela-
graph has this interesting story about
Mrs. Letter and her approaching de-
but:
Mrs. 7. Benton Letter, the Chicago
society woman who had the misfortune
to be spurned by Levi z. Letter because
she had the audacity to embark in d
theatrical career in order to support
her invalid husband, who was cast
aside by the Chicago multi-millionaire,
has at last secured an engagement
She will make her first bow to the pub
lie at Proctor's Pleasure Palace on
June 10. Mrs. Letters bitter quarrel
with the head of the Letter family has
been fully exploited. Many of the mil
lionaire's friends hoped, however, that
Mrs. T. Benton Letter would eventu-
ally change her mind and give up all
idea of going on the stage. BY doing
that family difficulty would have
been averted. but Mrs. Letter would
have starved. she claims.
Her husband. who formerly man
aged Levi 2. Letters enormous Chi
cago interests, has not improved in
health and the elder Letters have re-
fused to withdraw their decree of social
exile. Pressed by necessity, Mrs Letter
has done just what she said she would
do.
''The sketch in which Mrs. Letter will
first appear is one entitled "A Stolen
Kiss written by Brandon Hurst It
is not new. A Stolen Kiss was pro-
duced last week at Proctor's Twenty
third street house, where it was we'll

Pleasure Palace Mrs. Letter will be as
sisted by Wright Huntington, who has
just completed an engagement in Too
Much Johnson at the Star theater
George H. Farren will also have a
part.
"A Stolen Kiss while pleasing, is
not particularly startling as to plot.
and it is doubtful if it will give Mrs.
Letter an exhaustive opportunity to
display any talent that she may have.
Her part does not call for anything but
mediocre acting, and should she make
hit it will be because she possesses
sufficient talent to infuse new life into
the material.
Mrs, Letters part will be that of an

PURSUING THE ROBBERS
A Posse Has Been Made Up of
Montana's Best Trailers.
CINCHING THE VICIOUS
Livingston Authorities Determined to
Enforce the Ordinances-Opening of
the Yellowstone National Park
Season-In Park County.

Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Livingston, June 14.-Under Sheriff
Frank Belar left on the east-bound
passenger this evening for Red Lodge.
He went in response to a telegram from
Sheriff Dunn of Carbon county. who
requested Sheriff Young to send a man
to assist in the capture of the Union
Pacific train robbers. The officials at
the sheriff's Office here say that from
the description given in the telegram
received from the officials of Wyoming
they are of the opinion that the three
robbers who are said to be headed
north, are the Roberts brothers and
George Currier. 1t is thought that be-
sides Sheriff Dunn and Under Sheriff
Bellar of this county the posse, which
pursues the robbers. will be made up
of Dick Hicks of Billings, and Billy
Smith of Miles City. Sam Jackson of
Big Timber may also go along. All
these men are the pick of the states
nervy men and are good t-ailers.
The authorities of the city of Living
storm appear determined to get their
moneys worth out of what law they
have at present among the ordinances
of the city. The war on secretaries and
sirens of the bad lands still continues,
and the hobo element comes in for a
good share of attention. The man who
rides a bicycle on the sidewalk must
pay the judge a fine, and kids must
keep away from the depot platform
when the trains come through The
curfew ordinance, which requires that
all children must be home at 8 p. M,
is being pushed to the limit. Stray
cows go to the pound, dog without a
license drops dead when the marshal
sees him, drunken man or one who is
disorderly gravitates toward the Jail in
a way that keeps the police court busy
counting cash received from fines.
Law and order reigns supreme and the
wheels of justice never slip cog.
A party consisting of E. H. Talcott.
Mrs. II. J. Miller. Florence Eley. Sallie
Moffitt, Jennie Elliott, Ebert Allen and
Mrs. Arthur Miles left this morning for
Great Falls to attend the annual con-
vention of the Christian Endeavor at
that place. Each of those who have
gone to the convention take a deep in
terest in the work of the organization.
Mr.. Talcott is president of the state Or
ganization.

train of nine coaches will be taken up
the Park branch and will land a COM

Whitcomb eXcursionists are coming in

night from the East. Besides these
there is a party headed by President
Fish of the Illinois Central railway
Engineer Elliott will pull the train, and
Jimmie Clark will be conductor.

BIGGER CHURCH ED|F|CES
A Building Boom in This Direc-
ton May Be Looked For.
SOME FINE STRUCTURES
Several Congregations Are Looking For
ward to New and Enlarged Houses
OF Worship in the Not Distant
Future-Recent Donations.

The church pillars of Butte the men
who are striving for supremacy in their
particular lines of enterprise, are feel
ing quite jubilant these days. They
are in an expansive mood and the sew
eral fiocks are living in pleasant antici-
patton of attending new and larger
houses of worship. The Mountain View
congregation is confident that it's house
of worship will be just little bit larg-
er than any other in Butte. The Meth
odists (South) already see work well
under way that will result in a beau
tiful structure on the old site in South
Idaho street.
1t is among the possibilities that this
summer will find preliminaries perfect
ed for the erection of a new Catholic
church, probably on the east side. The
present house is away too small to ac-
commodate the congregation. There
are, 1t is understood $4,000 Catholic
ehurch-goers in this city. new build
ing is needed for the Catholics. There
are three parish priests Fathers DE
Siere, Callahan and Blazer. Probably
Two more will be secured for the parish
before fall. The bishop has under con-
sheraton the enlargement of the band.
The creation of Centerville parish and
the erection of st. Lawrence church re-
lleyed to great extent the congestion
of the attendance at st. Patricks yet
there is a demand for more church
room in the city proper.
The large new Presbyterian church,
on Broadway and Idaho, is none too
spacious when the congregation is in a
spirit of unanimity. There are times
when it is inadequate to accommodate
all who want to attend services. There
are three houses where Presbyterians
worship in this city, the First, South
Butte and Emanuel.
The Methodists (South) are elated
over the glowing prospects Of a bran
new institution in this city--the pro-
posed st. Paul's emergency hospital.
Rev. ]. M. Settle, the resident pastor,
said yesterday that the hospital was an
assured fact, that enough money had
already been given or pledged to war;
rant the statement. 1t is proposed to
make fire-proof house, 14O rooms, the
building to be thoroughly modern in
every respect and a perfect sanitary
system with all the appliances found in
the best hospitals in the world. 1t will
cost about $4,000. The latest contribu-
ton was from Arthur P. Heinze and
F. Aug. Heinze Of $4,000, convinced
Mr.. Settle that the scheme was sure
