AT THE FAMILY TONIGHT.

Davis & Busby's mammoth "Uncle
Toms Cabin company will begin a
weeks engagement at the family
Theater tonight. They will give the usual
Saturday and Sunday matinees at the
usual hour This is without a doubt the
largest company of it's kind that has
visited the west in a number of years.
They carry everything necessary to give
a correct production of the grand old
play, such as special scenery, dogs, goats,
donkeyS. ponies, oxen, in fact everything
to give a correct imitation of life in the
south during slavery days. In addition
to the company of actors a large military
band and operate orchestra is carried.
Mr.. Edward r. Nickerson, the worlds
famous cornet ~virtuoso, is the band di-
rector as well rs the cornet soloist. Mr..
Nickerson will be remembered as the
SoloiSt with the famous calvin Joslin"
band as we'll as a prominent member of
the postage stamp company band. For
this engagement only the prices have
been reduced to 10c, zoe, 25c, soc, SOC and
75c, which will give everyone an oppor-
tunity to see "Uncle Toms Cabin once
more. The critic on the Chicago Times
says Of this company's production;
'Uncle Toms Cabin never grows old.
There runs through it a vein of pathos
peculiarly touching and sweet. 1t speaks
the universal language of the heart. IL
reflects like a urism the innermoSt phases
of the human emotion. 1t is more than
a play. 1t is a moral classic. 1t argues
for two of the greatest themes that can
engage the mind; human llperty ana lhe
Immortality of the soul. NotWithStand

MA1HER AND

Store.
LAW BRANDED AS "FAKE"
Its Aid Was Sought But Could Not
Be Applied In the
Case.
BRANDED AS FAKE"

Ernest Mather was among the numer-
Gus visitors at the county court house to-
day. He was in search of aid and applied
to the county attorney for it. He SAID he
was a laboring man, but notwithstand-
ing this fact managed to get hold of a
five-dollar bill once in a while. This
morning he had entered the store at the
northwest corner of Main and Park
streets and bought two shirts for which
he contracted to pay $3.50. He had ten
dered the clerk with whom he did bust
ness a ~five-doliar bill, but failed to get
| back the change. He had kicked, but
It accomplished nothing, the clerk
claiming that he had paid only the $1.So.
The advice of the police ma gistrate had
been sought. The judge had told him to
get a policeman and he took the advice,
but the combined efforts of the policeman
and himself were of no avail. Mather
said he had then called on Charles Little,
the assistant city attorney, and that gen.
tleman advised him to call on the
county attorney.
The latter heard his story and replied
that the chances for recovering the money
We're against him, as he would no doubt
be confronted with a denial of the part
of the transaction relating to the change.
On hearing this Mather remarked: The
law is a - fake. I'll take a Win
chester rifle and blow the sights off them
if they do not return my change. Lots
of people have been blown up with pow
der and there are lots more who ought
to be blown up
With these remarks he left the office
and a few minutes later appeared at the
store in question with a Winchester and
a revolver. He handled the former weap-
on in a manner that indicated business
and the change alleged to be due him was
handed over. Later, Mather was arrest
ed but was liberated, the proprietor of
the store refusing to prosecute him.
At the city Jail Mather said he could
take the Winchester and knock the eye
out OF a man at a distance of seven miles.
n people at the store, it is said, claim
that Mather gave them only $3.50 in the
first place.

Word has been received from Washing

has decided the Castle land case involv-
ing title to lands around Castle. The sec
rotary holds the Wilson entry good. This
ends a long piece Of litigation in Whlch

Helena Herald: Judge w. Y. Pember-
ton will return soon to the practlce OF
law. He has not yet determined whether
he will locate in Butte or Helena. When
asked his views as to the bill to increase
the membership Of the supreme court, he
declined to discuss it for the reason that
his opinion might be thought to be in
spired by personal interest. He thinks
his personal interests will be better sub
served by a return to the practice than
by seeking official position If he had such
ambition, or a desirable position were Of
fered.
Judge Pemberton is of the opinion that
the future is not very inviting and hope
full to those democrats who have pOllti-
cal ambition. He thinks those who i'm
agine or indulge the hope that the great
democratic fractional fight is over in this
state will wake up two years hence to
find that they have been indulging in
dreams and decisions. He looks for a
real fght-one that will be a fight indeed
two years hence. Some men won't "lay
