HAD A GOOD TIME.
An Enjoyable Smoker Given by the Sons
of st. George.

Great Falls, March 9.-The members
of Shakespeare Lodge. Sons of St.
George, take first rank as entertain
ers. The man who is so fortunate as to
receive a bid to one of their "smOker
socials' misses rare enjoyment if he
neglects to attend. One of these func-
tions occurred last night at the lodge
rooms, and if it is to be taken as a fair
sample of the good times these trans
planted Britons can have, then it is
a good thing to be of such AnglG-SaX-
on descent that one may style himself
a son of st. George. Ben Walker pre-
sided over the meeting, and from the
chair called upon one and then an
other to respond with song. recitation
or whatever he might prefer. The order
was do something, anything, whatever
you can that may amuse or interest
the rest of u.s. and the order was well
obeyed. The society has much musi-
cal talent in its ranks, and accordingly
the programme contained more songs
than anything else. The responder
would sing a verse of the song and
then, as a rule, the company would join
in the chorus until the rafters rang
with the melody. Visitors We're not ex-
empt from the draft, and each had to
do what he could. In consequence. enc
admiral BILE speech was brought out,
that of Professor B. 7. Hathaway.
" nile It was entirely an GXtempOfane-
Gus address on the blood relation of
Briton and American. mare time and
preparation could hardly have produc-
ed anything more to the spirit of the
gathering, and it was warmly applaud
ed many times in its course, and at its
conclusion. The following is the pro-
gramme, which was eXtemporized after
the address of welcome by the chair
man. the whole concluding with the
singing of America" by the entire
crowd of more than 100:

THERE'S MUCH RED TAPE
But Pelkier Will Probably Be
EXtradited.
CHARGE OF lNCENDIARISM
He Is Accused of Setting the Fire Which
Destroyed the Coal Washer at
Belt-An Amusing In
cdent.

Great Falls, March 9.-County Attor-
ney Gormley and the witnesses in the
David Pelkier case have returned from
Lethbridge, where they attended the
examination of the prisoner preimin-
airy to extradition. Mr.. Gormley left
before the mater was finally decided,
but believes that a case sufficient TO
procure the eXtradition was made and
long to answer to the charge of setting
fire to the coal washer at Belt. The
Canadian law process is surrounded
with red tape and some time must
elapse before the man can be turned
over to the state authorities.
The judges at the examination sat in
wigs and gowns and took all of the
testimony down in long hand. Then
they will report to the minister of JUS
tice at Ottawa, he will review the case,
Is days will be allowed the prisoner to
institute proceedings for writ of ha-
beas corpus and then Uncle Sam will
probably get a chance at Pelkipr.
Mr.. Gormley conducted the eXamin-
alton and was assisted by C. F. p.
Conybear queens counsel. He re-
lates that during the progress of the
trial one of the witnesses, j. G. Welsh
of Belt, being struck by the pomp of
the court. attempted to take a kodak
picture of the scene and thereby nearly
created a riot. Court bailiffs rushed
upon him and took away the camera
and for time it looked as if he might
be tried for lese majesty.

Bishop Clark's Residence--Patrol-
man Ryan's Good Work.

The house Of Rt. Rev. Thomas M.
Clarke. Episcopal bishop of Rhode Island
at 10 Brown street, was entered by a
burglar early this morning. and the re-
suit was a spirited controversy between
the burglar and one Of the inmates, and
the shooting Of the intruder after he
| had threatened TO Kill an officer.
Mrs. Mary Sturteyant, the bishop s
| daughter. has lived with him several
years. At 1880 o'clock she was awak-
ened by a slight noise, ana discovered
a man crouching near her bureau. She
made no noise, and in a few minutes
the man went 20 another room, lighted
a candle and began a tour OF inspec-
ton. The man then entered the room
OF Miss Helsn Sturtevant the bishops
granddaughter, and upon Miss Sturte-
want sitting uD in bed she was told not
10 move on she would be killed. She ex-
postulated with the intruder. and in an
instant jumped from the bed, bounced
out OF the room into a smaller one and
locked the door.

cape, he invaded the sleeping apart

through the window on TO the roof OF

glar and ordered the man to stay
