HEARD AND SEEN
in TIMM0NY'S COURT

How many does it take?" asked a.
NJ Fillmore a very indignant individ-
ual found at l p. m. by officer Hilton
soaking his feet in a water ditch for
pastime- Il say, how much does it take
to get man drunk
The question, addressed to his honor.
Timmony, was a sumner. After medi
tating for some moments the judicial
was obliged to answer that he'd for
gotten. Fillmore, who has before fallen
in the aqueduct of thirst, maintained
that he was not drunk-but sleeping
And that will be 49, said the court.
Colonel Eph Kelly assured the court
that he wasn't very drunk this time
and smiled a smile that broke Diehl's
pocket mirror and thrice twisted the
spanish bull tantaliZer about his neck.
''Ten days, Eph. Well let you get
out in time to celebrate the advent of
the pioneers
law ratsI" exclaimed the colonel,
showing the first signs of belligerency.
Why can't you fellas live and let
live?"
Steve Peyton of Springville. who was
taken from the jail yard early yester-
day morning by Officer Roberts and
charged with trespass, wanted TO know
what kind of an acquisition" that was,
anyway. The. patrolman gave a few of
Peyton's choice epitheitcal expressions
termed abuse, and the accused wanted
his reputation investigated by wire
The court hardly thought il necessary
to place itself in communication with
"Beefsteak Harrison" for whom Pey-
ton said he worked, and passed a SEN
tence of fifteen DAYS.

oiio robbers, took Saturday mornings
train delayed and being met BY Mrs.
Hicks at Bozeman. proceeded on his
way to Butte. He passed his son some-
where Oh the Butte branch.
In the meanwhile, the boys, by catch
ing rides on trains and walking. were
slowly progressing toward home.
Reaching Story's Siding, three miles
from the city. they sat down on the end
of the ties to rest a moment, when they
were overcome with fatigue and
dropped asleep, the Hicks boy sleeping
close enough to the rail to be hit on the
head by the cow.catcher. which killed
him instantly, crushing the back of his
head H.. AS the train passed, the Pike
boy was awakened and, seeing that his
companion vas dead. hastened to town.
Needless to say the fond parents are
almost distracted by this accident,
which has taken from them a little SOD
whom they both dearly loved. Claude
was only 10 and, aside from his desire
to disobey his mother in order to travel,
was a dutiful son.
Mr.. Hicks returned to Billings

The Sheridan Ball Club Went
Down to Defeat Before
Our Boys.
NOT A BRILLIANT GAME
Score II to 6--Sheridan Club Weak
in Many Places-Games Ar
ranged with Miles City.

The ball game at the fair grounds
the afternoon of the Fourth between
Sheridan and Billings resulted dis
~astrously for the former when there
wal no license for so doing. 1t wasn't
a brilliant game by any means. no re.
markable plays being made by either
side. When the game came to a close
the score was found to read something
like this: II to 6.
One can hardly say it was IN ideal
day for a game, as the wind was blow.
ing strong enough to change the course
Of fly hits. Otherwise the day could
not have been moro pleasant. 1t was
hot and just such holiness that a player
likes. The ground was not in the pink
Of condition, owing to horses having
tramped over it after the rain and made
number of rough places which should
have been smoothed down.
It was 2:10 when the command
"play BALI echoed over the diamond.
W. L. Mains and Daniel Dewey um.
pired the game, the former on bases
and outfield, the latter on strikes, balls
and foul 1ys and hits, and aside from
q few grumblings both gave very good
satisfaction. The visiting team went
to bat first, making one score. Our
boys pounded the sphere for four runs
in their first inning. From there to
the sixth inning the game ran very
we'll, the score being 10 to 8 in favor
Of Billings, but after that the home
boys gained steadily. while the visitors
were unable to make a score, having
four straight goose.eggs.
Some very pretty base stealing was
done by both sides, but the playing
otherwise was very common. Rank
errors were made at very inopportune
times by the Sheridan boys, which
gave nj boys a great lead over them.
The prettiest hit of the game was
made by Grant Of the visitors when
he fell onto II Of Taylor's outshoots
for three bags. But poor fellow! He
never got any farther, for the other
batters couldn't hit hard enough to
bring him home.
The Sheridan boys took their defeat
very good naturally. They were a
gentlemanly lot Of fellows that it does
n good to play with and it is hoped
that another game or series may be ar.
ranged with them after they have
praoticed some.

license on July 4 for running and oyer.
ating a ''striking machine" and barrel
game" He started up on the vacant
lot next to A. j. Gilsdorf's meat mar.
ket. Sheriff Hubbard came along and,
judging from the manipulations Of
things that it was a gambling game,
compelled the proprietor to stop it
forthwith.
Now Nixon, through his attorney,
G. L. Harris, brings suit before Justice
Mann. against Sheriff Hubbard in the
sum Of $72 and costs. The plaintiff
contends that he bought cigars to the
amount of $40, his license cost him ~
and he would have made at least $50,
aud he therefore prays that Sheriff
Hubbard shall be made to liquidate 10
the above sum.

4 OPERA,
Excellent Presentation Of "Martha" at
Great Falls.

Great Falls.
If the list of all operas that have
heen here is recalled, it may be said,
without fear Of question that not since
Emma Abbott and company calne to
Great Falls has there been given a
more thoroughly delightful opera than
MARTHA" al presented at the Grand
last evening by the Wakefield Andrews
company. says the Great Falls Tribune.
Others may have been better in some
n or more features-even that is
doubtful-but no other has been 80
good in all respects.
Miss Nellie Andrews had the roles
Of Lady Harriet and Martha. She has
a firm, sweet soprano voice, is of pre-
possessing appearance, and sings with
great feeling and expression. In 1.-THE
Last Rose Of Summer" she completely
won her hearers and was thrice encored.
Miss Andrews must, however, share
the honors very literally with Miss
Maud Leekly, AZ Nancy and Julia.
Miss Leekly is young, beautiful in face
and figure, and has a contralto voice so
rich, powerful, pure and true that its
equal is seldom heard. She is a better
actress than Miss ANDREWS. but that is
Of little consequence in "Martha."
Jay G. Taylor, who took the role Of
Plunkett, il no stranger in Great Falls,
having been here in 1894 and 1896, and
he has greatly improved in voice. his
clear baritone being as fresh as ever.
A. l.. Parmly, in the role Of Lionel,
has a high tenor that is SO clear, pow
erful and Of such great range that the
audience regretted that his appearance
was not more frequent. The applause
that he received early in the opera was
a sufficient compliment for almost any
singer, but after he had sung Like a
Dream, Bright and Fair" he had cap.
tured the audience and received a
