DR.. Reber, who is in Darby on pro-
fessional business, this evening sent an
urgent message to Drs. McGrath and
Howard to come at once to Mrs. Miser
the woman who took morphine here
last week, and who is now at the home
of her mother there. No particulars
are obtainable this evening, the only
thing to be obtained from the doctors
is that it is some stomach trouble.
Whether the trouble comes from her
recent experience, or whether another
| attempt has been made, can only be
conjectured
A. B. Won Weisenfiue, the Victor mer-
chant, and at one time a Ravalli coun-
ty newspaper man. was up from the
village of one-time populism this morn
ing, and reports everything looking
well down his way, and the sun of

to-day and reports everyone happy

provements going on, particularly
| among the farmers
great many citizens are expressing
themselves as being in favor of the
Hamilton people all going to- Stevens
Vile and helping the good people of
that town celebrate the Fourth of July.
No preparations have yet been made
for a celebration here, and as the
| lower valley town has already a big
celebration well on the way to success
| it is thought that it would be just
| about the right thing for our people
| to take it in.
