very elegant doileys, mats, handker-
chiefs, and lunchcIoth done in puns-
the woven fiber of the pineapple. The
chaplain has also valuable collection
OF firearms, swords, flags, etc. Miss

black SATIN as Filipino lady. Dainty
freshments were served in the dining
room.
Misses Grace Hugunin Ella Taylor
Elbs Nipps, Ola Oowan, OIari Chea-
die, Mabel and Miriam briggs assist

their trip to the PHILIPPINES, and
wherever they go the friendship and
interest of the Philipsburg people
will be with them.

The social season was brilliantly
insuguvated last Thursday evening by
Mr. and Mrs. L. A Champlin, who
entertained their friends with their
customary cordial and open-handed
hospitality. Their new home is es-
pecially fitted for functions of that
character, as the rooms are SO ar
ranged that number may be thrown
togather, thus contributing to the
sociability of the evening. The never
failing might've furnished the enter
taInment, interspersed with the usual
badinage between games. A most
sumptuous repast was the browning
event of the evening, the tables all
proving equally successful at discuss

After a surfeit of mediocre en-
tertsinments. it is with feelings of
genuine pleasure that We are enabled
to announce the coming of the famous
comedian, Mr.. John Dillon. The
play in which he will appear is one
that gives him unlimited scope for
the display of those talents that have
made him so universally popular.
''Bartlett's Road to SeltzervIlle" is
the title of the play; an odd, whims
steal title, but one that suits the oc-
casion as the motive of the author
becomes apparent. Bartlett's Road
is well-knoWn locality in western
state, and the characters.are drawn
from real life. Mr. Dillon assumes
the part of Hiram jolly" or "Jolly
Uncle Jolly" as those who know aud
love him best call him. The play is
not nonsenslcal. It has good, we'll
sustained plot, and the funny, though
perfectly natural situations keep the
audience in continual state of laugh
ter and applause. In fact, "BRrtlett's
Road to Seltzsrvllle'' must be seen
by all that believe in the saying, GAS
We journey through life, let US live
by the way" Wednesday, Nov. %.

THEY GET $4,000 EACH
George McGahan and Mrs. Metz
Recover Damages.
ANOTHER BIG MINING SUIT
B. 81 M. Brings an Action Against the
M. o. P. and Other Companies to
Recover $4,000 Damages-A
Restraining Order Issued.

Attorney John W. Cotter won out in two
damage suits in department l. of the dis.
trict court yesterday and in each case his
client got a $4,000 judgment. The first was
that of George McGahan against the Mon
tana Ore Purchasing company which wa
settled without trial, and the other was
that of Mrs. Lou Metz against the city o.
Butte.
In the McGahan case suit had beer
brought for $4,000 McGahan had beer
employed at the Rarus mine in March
1897. and was working in the shaft, tank
being used for hosting purposes. Nc
Gahan signalled for the tank to be lower
ed for the purpose of descending to an
other level. Before he could get into the
tank the engineer. Frank Hyatt. without
receiving another signal, pulled the tank
upward and McGahan was thrown out
and dragged some distance and injured
seriously. When the case was called for
trial some months ago Hyatt could not be
found and the defense secured continu-
ance.
An offer was made at that time to settle
with McGahan but the sum offered was
50 small that he refused to accept it.
Yesterday another offer was made him
by A. P. Heinze of the defendant com
pany and it was accepted He is to receive
$1,000. besides counsel fees and costs. 1t
is understood that some California casu-
atty company. and not the Montana Ore
Purchasing company, will pay the money.
In the Metz case against the city, which
was tried before jury, the evidence was
that in front of the Quartz street fire
station there is a jump-off in the side
walk, and on the evening of Feb. -, 1897.
Mrs. Metz walked along there. and not be-
ing aware of the step she fell and sus-
tanned a number of injuries, being rup-
tured and otherwise injured. She sued
for 5000 and 1896 paid out for doctors
bills. The jury. which was composed of
William ]. Walsh. Patrick McEvoy. John
Fitzgerald. c. D. Cameron, Robert Tur-
ner. John B. Loughran. L. 0. Tooe, John
D. James, Alfred Trelowan, j. ]. Murphy
and John w. Shackleton. returned a YER
dict for $1,000.
The Boston & Montana company, now
Of Montana, yesterday brought an action
against the Montana Ore Purchasing
company. the Chile Gold Mining company
and the Johnstown Mining company for
900 damages and to enjoin the defend
ants from mining on a certain portion
OF the Pennsylvania lode claim. The COM
plant in the case describes the property
and charges that the defendants on Feb
2 entered upon the ground and extracted
a large quantity of ore, to the value of
$50 900, and to the damage of the plaintiff
in that amount.
1t is alleged that the defendants threat
en- to continue the trespass unless re-
strained by the court, and upon the APP

RARE STAMPS FOR SALE
Chance for Collectors to Buy
Much-Sought-After Stamps.
MANY ORDERS COMING IN
Postmaster Irwin Expects Large De-
mand for the Newspaper and Peri
odical Stamps-Have Never
Before Been offered.

Postmaster Irwin received from the post
office department yesterday supply of
the newspaper and periodical stamps,
which have SO long been sought after by
stamp collectors, but which the govern
ment has hitherto never allowed to be
sold. For many years prior to the 30th
Of last June the publisher of a newspaper
or periodical in mailing his publication
would send his papers to his postoffice.
They were weighed up in bulk and he was
charged l cent pound postage. What
ever his postage amounted to he paid and
was given receipt for the amount. The
receipt was made out in triplicate. one
for the publisher, one to be kept by the
postmaster and to the third was attached
a stamp and the receipt sent to the de-
partment. These stamps were of the de-
nomination of !, 2, 5. 10, Is and so cents
and 81. s., $40, $50. $50 and 800, so if Is
pounds were mailed the receipt which
went to the department bore a 25-cent
stamp; If it were 500 pounds, 50 stamp
was used and SO up to 10000 pounds in
which case the $100 stamp was used, which
was the largest denomination of the
stamps and which were seldom, if ever,
used.
The system was adopted to obviate the
necessity of putting postage on every pa
per or periodical mailed. AS the stamps
were never put on anything but the du-
plcate receipt which went to the de-
partment, they We're never in circulate
and collectors sought in vain to get hold
of them.
On June 30 last the system was changed.

Spouse to the deluge of requests from col
lectors the postmaster general decided to
offer the stamps that had been called in
for sale, as there were $4,000 complete

announced that the stamps would be
placed on sale Feb. Is. but for some rea-

The $4,000 sets were divided up among the

sets being allotted to the Butte office

on sale to-day.
