from the hot sun, the occasional

At present we feel we can hold our
ditch against anything but rainy

To Bring the Twentleth Homo.

While verybody in lola is i'm
mensely proud of the record the
Twentieth Kansas is making there is
Il very general feeling that, inasmuch
as the war for which they enlisted
has been formally and finally closed
the boys should be sent home at the
earliest possible date. This feeling
is naturally strongest in the hearts of
the parents whose boys are at the
front, and it eliminated recently in
the following correspondence:
Senator Baker. LeavenwOrth, Kas.
Being one OF the mothers of the soldier boys
at Manila, have been requested by the other
parents o: the boys TO ask ifyou thought that
petition asking to have our boys sent home
would do any good? We feel os though the
GOTH Kansas Volunteers had done their share
and their duty, and we are anxious now to get
them sent home before the rainy season sets in
for we feel sure that ifthey are left there much
longer more oftheir precious lives will be lost
Now that peace has at last been proclaimed,
we feel that the Volunteers should be discharg-
ed aud the regulars sent to do the rest. Please
write at your earliest convene nee and instruct
as how and what we can do and relieve many
anxious parents. Very Respectfully.
MRS. IL. NJ MILLER.

Washington, AprIl ~. -Gen. Lorpin
says nothing further has been done
regarding the return of the volunteer
soldiers from Manila. If the troops
could be spared, there is no transport
service to bring them home and will
not be for some time. 1t is believed
that the transports now ON the way TO
Manila and those which will leave in
few days will return with volunteers
The war department officials think
that, by June l, there will be enough
transports at Manila to bring back all
that want to come.

Of such eminent artists, Sardou's heav-
lily pathetic story is presented with
breafhtaking realism. 1t is a most
elaborate work with a strange physical
and theatrical interest, crowded with
varied significant and effective move

tinuous dramatic suspense. The scene

said to be n Of the most dramatic
stage pictures ever presented.

be sold to buyers in Billings. During
his recent trip to Chicago Mr.. Rails
back was informed by eastern manu-
featuring concerns that they would
send representatives here if he would
guarantee a certain amount of wool.
This means that better prices are sure
to be paid for wool.

City Marshal Jack Bond is. Making War
on the "Pinkies."
City Marshal Jack Bond has CON-
menced an onslaught on the '~'secre-
tarles,' who make their living off the
unfortunate ONE of this city, and is
determined to clear the city of these
pests, no matter what the cost. Mar
shall Bond is in favor Of abolishing the
old ordinance respecting this class of
Migrants and in its place making one
as severe as that of Butte, by which
they are fined $3.50 or given ninety days
work on the streets.
Already several of the ''pink-eyes''
have faced Police Judge Mann this
week and were given five days on the
streets. One other was given six hours
to leave town and he turned his face
westward. City Marshal Bond will
wage the war fearlessly and it is hoped
that within the next few days the city
may be renovated. The ''secretaries''
will hereafter find a hard row of stumps
to hoe in Billings.

E~yANGELIsTIC MEETINGS
will Be Held in Billings, Commencing
Sunday Morning.

Sunday Morning.
Chas. N. Crittenton, the New York
millionaire evangelist, will arrive in
Billings tomorrow from Livingston,
and begin evangelistic meetings in the
court house Sunday morning, and con
tinue for about two weeks. He travels
in his W car, which is taken over all
the railroads in the country free Of
charge. He is accompanied by Mrs.
Moffit, a noted singer, and his visit to
this city will afford Christian workers
needed assistance. In conjunction with
his visit to Montana he will doubtless
establish a mission, which will proba-
bly, be located at Helena.
For a month past lie has been labor
ing in several cities in the state, doing
some grand work. Under date of April
~, a Missoula telegram to the Ana
conda Standard says:
Chas. N. Crittenton, the evangelist,
has left the city to continue his work
in Butte, after the most successful
series Of meetings ever held in Mis-
soula. One of the local clergymen, who
was associated with Mr.. Crittenton in
his work here, pays this high tribute to
that gentleman:
"It is speaking in tame language to
say that Mr.. Crittenton and his singer,
Mrs. Moffat, have left upon this city a
rich and sacred benediction. No
evangelist has ever visited our city who
has received more universal approval.
The effect of his work is seen in the
deepening Of religious convictions on
the part Of the churches and in the &C.
c%eptance Of the Christian faith on the
part of a large number of the %unrepent-
emit. The fact that be was endorsed by
the citizenship at large is demonstrated
by the liberal contributions that he re-
ceived, which amounted to $500. AS a
man Mr.. Crittenton is one of the most
marked illustrations of entire and abso-
lutte devotion and conservation that we
have aver met. A business man of
rare ability and success, but, turning
aside from it entirely, to ~philanthropic
and evangelical work, he has shown his
sincerity. AS a philanthropist his
fifty-four Florence Crittenton Mis-
sions,' built for the relief of fallen
women, stand as monuments of his
efforts. AS an evangelist he is pleasing
and persuasive in manner and safe in
his methods and his appeals are, many
Of them, most convincing. For ten
successive nights the Bennett opera
house was packed, most Of the time to
its utmost capacity, Notwithstanding
the fact that there were many diver
sions in the city at the time"
Meetings will be held in the court
