Many Will Take Up Ranches in the Ju-
dith Basin.
Great Falls, March 25-At the hotels
are many guests from Iowa, Ohio and
also Missouri, who have taken advant-
age of the cheap railway rates to visit
this country. Many purchased tickets
for one way only and this would indi-
cate an intention of casting in their lot
with Northern Montana. Some are
seeking employment in this city. while
others are taking UP ranches in this
and adjoining counties.
Quite a number expect to make
homes in the Judith basin, and the
stages running thither are crowded each
morning. To-day passengers had to be
refused as the stage was full, and one
man, from Salem, Mo-, started to walk
to Belt with bird cage in his hand.
This is the first in many years
that has seen such an influx of immi-
grants, and the present visitors are ap-
parently people who will make first
class citizens.
Edmonton and the Northwest terri
tory generally has been wonderfully in
creased In population in the past two
years, not only by Klondikers, but by
large numbers of farmers and stock
men. The verdict upon these immi-
grants seems to be conflicting, as at
the present time there is much outcry
against the Galicians in particular, who
have settled all about Edmonton. But
if that country, many miles to the
north of Montana, can attract settlers
of any degree at all, Montana should
be able to secure settlers, many of
them, and these of the highest class.

A SAD CASE.
William T. Mcfarland Has Been Sent to
the Asylum.

the Asylum.
Great Falls, March 25.-Willam T.
Mcfarland of Lewistown has been ad-
judged insane and ordered sent to the
asylum at Warm Springs. The case is
particularly sad one. His most init
mate friends have noticed strange ac-
tons for fortnight past, but not until
Tuesday afternoon did the unfortunate
mans condition seem to be such that
action by the officers was necessary
The manifestations of insanity have
been wandering conversation, extreme
gayety and detailing of family troubles
which occurred years ago.
1t will be recalled that twice before
has the patient been sent to the asylum
from this county, the last time 10 years
ago. Previously insanity has been
caused by drink and has been violent.
Since leaving the asylum in 1889, Mr..
Mcfarland has not drunk a drop of
liquor, and his present condition cannot
be assigned to this cause He realized
that he was going to the asylum, and
acquiesced. bidding his many friends
goodbye.

CHICAGO MARKETS.
Produce.


Chicago, March 25.-The feverish excite
ment which ruled in wheat at the close
yesterday was again in evidence to-day,
but at the start the bulls seemed to
waver Instead of a general demand for
May at 10Ac, such as at the close Friday,
there were plenty of sellers at from 697sc
down to 69a4c. Before the bulls could get
| a word in edgeways the prices slid off to
G95sc. The bulls soon found their voices,
however When the bulls got through
with the last bar of the opening chorus
May wheat was up to 7Ossc.
Much milder weather and a spread of
wet snow for large section of the winter
wheat area was the chief cause of the
first decline. Reports of damage In the
Southwest received confirmation from nu-
merous sources and in many instances
the extent of the injury reported was SEN
sationally heavy.
A London cablcgram reported this sea-
sons India wheat crop ~ per cent. small
er than that of last year. Another cold
spell was announced as elbowng its way
down from the Northwest. As soon as
the weather bureau notice was issued the
shouting for wheat became almost hys-
tercal. The price of May rose irregularly
to the accompaniment of heavy trading
until 72lkc was reached. That was lac
more than yesterdays closing price. 1t
reacted to Toxic and closed al 7O5s@70%c.

Although influenced largely by wheat,
corn embraced good many independent
features. May corn closed &c higher.
The excitement in wheat had little effect
in oats. May oats closed unchanged.
Provision prices showed slight weakness
at the start. but gradually firmed up on
buying by commission houses for outside

The temperature has averaged

weather prevailed in the northern

are reported from the eastern half
of Arapahoe and moderately
heavy one from the western part

Favorable conditions and pros

ties As result of irrigation and
recent high temperature, plant life
is making rapid advancement and,
with the exception of fruit, is like

While ranges are generally in good
condition, the soil is drying rapid

A Hat Fad

One of the fads of the year is
the trimming of hats with pigeons.
The entire bird is taken, spread
out fiat, the neck thrust through
a rhinestone ring and tucked down
in most extraordinary fashion,
while the feet and wings are left
outspread. The claws are there
indeed, everything is absolutely
perfect. This bird is generally
seen on the hats worn down over
the face. 1t is used a great deal
on the hats of shirred black nous
seline de sole or on the soft black
hats with the shirred mousseline
de sole brim. The gray and white
of the pigeon looks very well
against the black. 1t is of course
a most useful style of hat, for there
is nothing TO be injured by wind
or weather, but it is just trihe
startling, and certainly not style
becoming to every Harper's
Bazaar.

Red Cliff Is the County Seat

A decision of the supreme court
yesterday was made in favor OF
Red Cliff which since 1894 has
claimed the right of being the
county seat of Eagle county. The
town of Eagle claimed the right
to that distinction as result of
the election in the fall of 1894,
which included vote of the tax
payers on the question of the re-
moval of the county seat. Red
Cliff disputed the claim of Eagle
on the ground of irregularity in
the election and took the case to
the district court, where in due
time Judge Overs decided for
Eagle. The Cliffites then carried
the case to the court of appeals,
whence it was removed to the su-
preme court, where decision was
reached this week in favor of Red
Cliff Eagle people say the end is
not yet.

Ancient Inkstands.

An inkstand that was probably in
use 3,4OO years ago has been lately ac.
quired by a museum in Berlin, says
the Youths Companion. 1t is of Egyp.
tan make, and is supposed to belong
to the eighteenth or nineteenth dynas-
ty. or somewhere about 1900 b. c.. al
though its real age can only be judged
of approximately.
1t is made of wood. and has two com
partments. an upper one provided with
two holes, one for black and one for red
ink. and a lower one for holding reed
pens. The black and the red ink are
certainties, for some still remains, il
a dry condition, within the receptacles
Another ancient inkstand is supposed
to have been intended for the use of {
schoolboy. 1t would certainly hold inl
enough for a schoOlboy's needs, for j.

Nuts for Eating.

Nuts are much employed in high-class
cookery, but their value seems not to be
recognized by the majority of country
housewives, too many of whom let the
squirrels get them all. Very delicious
dishes are made of chestnuts. Any
nut makes a cake more delicious. Nuts
chopped and sprinkled over buildings,
hot or cold, give new flavor and great
~ improve them, while mixed through
custard they make a surprising change
in this simple dish. Stewed apples
sprinkled with chopped nuts and the
core space filed with jam make a good
desert, which need be of no cost except
for the labor used, and this is of only
nominal value.-Philadelph Inquirer.

not admit of an anesthetic being used.
His leg was taken off while he was
fully conscious. He stood the shock
well, but died a few days later. Dy
ing, he repeated his request that his
anvil should be his tombstone. In ac-
cordance with his wish the old anvil
was coated with enamel, topped with

death the monument was raised with
ceremony and j. Nick Perrin deliver

the story of the village blacksmith is
told.

The Vanderbilt Brothers.

Cornelius Vanderbilt carries no sug-
gestion of aggressiveness, of i'm
petuosity, of pride in and ambition for
daring or brilliant coups. William X.
Vanderbilt as he grows older more and
more suggests the temperament, the ag-
gressiveness, the persistency of his
grandfather, the Commodore. His man
ner is that of the imperious and often
impetuous business man. In his bust
ness hours he tempers his conduct by
no etiquette that is conventional and
no courtesy that is necessary.-Phila-
delphia Press.
