He Has Disappear I'd.

Great Falls, Sept 1.-THE continued
absence from home of Colonel J. j.
Donnelly is causing much uneasiness
among his friends in Fort Benton. He
was last seen in the store of Colgate &
McCauley on Wednesday morning
about o'clock, and repeated inquiries
since then have failed to locate him.
Finlay Tower has discovered tracks
tracks leading down to the waters edge
at the wing dam in the Missouri at the
lower end of the Whalen bottom, and
can find no place where the tracks re-
turn. The coloners friends are, there
fore, inclined to augur the worst, al
though these seems to be no direct evil
dence connecting the tracks with his
disappearance. At that particular spot

WHOLE CAR CONDEMNED
The Derrig Fruit Company Hit
Very Hard.
PAID FREIGHT IN ADVANCE
Suffers Heavy Loss and Has No Way
of Getting Back at the Shipper.
There Will Be a Short
age of Fruit

Great Falls, Sept. 1.-THE Derrig
Fruit company of this city feels that it
has had pretty hard deal A few
days ago it ordered car of fruit from
an Oregon grower. 1t paid the freight
in advance. This morning it received
word that the car had been examined
at Butte and had been found infected
with the Goblin moth. The car and the
freight cost the local fruit company
just $1,000 and it does not know to-day
how 1t is going to get one cent back.
1t bought the fruit in Oregon and there
the sale was made and the fruit ac-
cepted. 1t has not seen the fruit, much
less received any of it, and the COM
pany feels, so far as it can learn, the
only thing to do is to charge it to
profit and loss. The company is ready
to back up any law of Montna, but it
declines to take any further expert
ments at $1,000 crack.
Fred w. Humes, the managing part
ner of the company, was seen this af-
ternoon by the Standard reporter and
Mr.. Humes stated the facts as given.
He said:
Il do not know what we're going to
do. We are in the business of selling
fruit and would like to continue in it.
l know that this has been a costly les
son to us, and one in which we were not
in the least at fault So far as l can
learn there is but one orchard in the
whole of Cascade county, and that is
not a factor in the market Had they
allowed the car of fruit to proceed, and
had it been unpacked here and sold, it
could have resulted in no harm to any
one. I know we cannot afford to lose
any more money in this fashion, and
as the law is rigidly enforced, there is
likely to be a shortage in this part of
the state in some kinds of fruit. The
Derrig Fruit company is doing more
than two-thirds Of the fruit business in
this section of the state and If it cam
not afford to take chances on shipping
fruit into the state there will be no one
else who will risk any money. 1t is
fact that there is not barrel of APP
Piles grown inside the county limits of
Cascade county sold in the local mar
ket in the course of a year, and the
city and the rest of the county is en-
tirely dependent upon fruit grown in
more favored portions of the continent.
The embargo is likely to considerably
enhance the cost of fruit to every con-
sumner here"

Howe Is a Cantain-

Great Falls, Sept. 11.--It is learned
from letters received here TODAY from
the Philippines that Sergeant 7. r. A.
Howe Of Company A has been offered
and has accepted commission as cap
tain of company in one of the new
regiments and he will therefore remain
in the islands. His decision is a disap-
pointment to his many friends in this
city and county, but they are consoling
themselves with the thought that his
appointment Is a recognition of a good
soldier and a good fellow, and as it
makes one more member of Company
A who has been recognized the promo
ton is an honor to the city which sent
out such fine body of men.

THE EsTEY PHoNoR1UM
At the vanderbiIt-FaIr Wedding in New
York Tuesday.

Our readers probably have noted in
some Of the press accounts of the Wander
bilt-Fair wedding references to the organ
used there as having been procured ex-
pressly for the occasion, and they will feel
still deeper interest in the matter when it
is stated that the instrument was one of
the large Estey phonoriums.
Mr.. Hollender went 20 New York last
week TO install this instrument in the pa
latial home of Mr.. and Mrs. Oelrichs. We
quote from the Associated Press despatch
concerning the wedding. as follows:
TO the deep diapason of a great hidden
organ and in the labyrinth of hot-house
wilderness Miss Virginia Fair was mar
ried at noon to Mr.. William K. Wander
bilt, jr., at the residence of Mr.. Herman
Oelrichs, 9th street in Fifth avenue"
In several different places in the Asso-
ciated Press despatch reference is made to
the organ, which is an evidence that it
made its impression on the large company
present. 1t may not be out of place TO
say in this connection that these instru-
ments are making for themselves a very
large place in the music trade of this conn
try. Never has there been so large a de-
mand for them as at the present time. and
doubtless the publicity given to the use of
this organ at this much discussed wedding
VIII bear its share in creating a still larger
market.
