Charged with Assault.

Great Falls. July 2.-George Shepard
was arrested at Flatwillow on Wednes-
day and brought to the jail at Lewis
town by Sheriff Shaw He is charged
with assault in the second degree upon
the person of Robert Jones. Shepard
says that there has been trouble be-
tween him and Jones for a long time,
and on Tuesday Jones came to Shop
ards cabin on Flatwillow and picked a
quarrel with him, and finally attacked
him. Shepard has a black eye, which
Jones gave him, and Jones is shot
through the lungs just above the heart.
He is still alive, and it is thought he
will recover, although the wound is
serious. The ball is said to have gone
in at the back and come out on the
breast, which in itself is ugly testi-
mony against Shepard. The latter is

Wool in Chotesu County.

Great Falls, July 1.-The wool season
in the eastern part of Choteau county
is progressing slowly. AT Chinook
about half a million pounds have been
received at the warehouse and a mil
lion and a half is the estimate made
for the season. Among the clips in or
nearly all in the warehouse are those
belonging to e. Mundt, T. Darwin,
Hicks e. Lyons, James O'Heron, w. j.
Jones, Lafrantz Bros, Bielenberg &
Bentle, George Putnam, f. Bowes and
f. S. Sweet
Several sales have been made in tina
vicinity. Hicks & Lyons have sold to
Koshland Bros. at 15& cents; Thomas
Darwin has sold to the same firm 16, 000
pounds at 16 cents The sale of the
B. D. Phillips clip at Malta to Whit
man, Farnsworth & Thayer for is cents
is apparently confirmed, although no
particulars as to the quality of the wool
have been learned. 1t is probable that
the staple was above the average, while
the fieeces were probably light.

The Girl with Thin Arms.

Thin arms should be carefully con-
eealed. They have an impoverished
look that robs their owner of some of
her dignity. If the arms are unduly
long, as they occasionally are, the eff
feet may be neutralized by wearing
wide bands of black velvet fastened
with pretty buttons or clasps or buck
les. This reduces the apparent length
of the arms.
Thin arms" says NJ. Charles Blanc,
the great French authority on dress,
denote bad health and an enfeebled
race" The best remedy is to wash
the arms with a fine lather of soap at
least twice a day, and to dry them Wig
orously. This treatment brings the
pores into action and induces a healthy
condition of the skin. Rubbing with a
soft chamois leather is excellent for
the skin, giving it both smoothne IS
and gloss.-Mrs. Humphry in the June
Ladies Home Journal.

RETURNING VOLUNTEERS
VIII he Given Royal Reception at
Lewistown.


Lewistown.
Great Falls, July 1.-The citizens of
Lewistown have held a meeting to ar
range for a reception to the returning
soldiers of Company I, and it IS prob
able that the people of Stanford, Utica
Tibet Gilt Edge and other towns Of
Fergus county will participate N the
reception, as each of these places is
represented in the company. w. D.
Symmes acted as chairman and L. P.
Slater as secretary of the meeting and
it was decided to leave the matter of
appointing a committee of ten, five
ladies and five gentlemen, to have gen.
In the meantime a committee on trans
portation has been appointed, and from
it has been issued the following circu-
lar:
Who will assist in bringing the bows
of Company i, LIST Montana volunteers,
from Great Falls or Belt to Lewistown
when the troops shall return from their
service?
The undersigned have been appointed
as a committee to arrange for the
transportation and desire to hear from
all who will volunteer to furnish trans
portation for three or more. Men and
teams, with proper conveyanceS are
wanted. Lewistown will pay all the
expenses of the trip, both going to
the Falls and returning with the
troops.
If you are willing to perform this
patriotic service kindly notify any one
of the undersigned, either by letter or
in person, of the kind of conveyance
you will take and how many YOU can
carry; also If there be any member of
the company whom you would like as
your special guest. Not in all cases
could the latter be arranged, but 1t
might be possible if known in good
time.
The troops are expected to arrive
about Sept. l and the teams will move
by prearranged programme

1t has been suggested that if the peo-
pie who are to take care of the trans
portation will only arrive early in
Great Falls 1t would be pleasant for
them as well as for the returning SOL
diers and the citizens of Great Falls to
have them participate In the reception

make the reception of the troops at this
point as impressive as possible and
through the reception fix in the SOL
diers minds that she appreciates what
they have done for their country If
the presence of Lewistown or Judith

will welcome them heartily.

The Collins Bill to Tax Life

Their Cash Surren-
der Value gets a
Black Eye.
FORTY MORE DAYS.
The House Commission Bill in the
Senate Now on its Third
Reading and is IN the
Hands of the Rail
road Com
mission.

Both branches of the legislature
voted yesterday to extend the ses-
sion from March 9 to April 'l9-an
extension of forty days.
In the house practically the en-
tire day was given up to final con
sideration of the Collins bill taxing
life insurance policies on their cash
surrender value. Mr. Rector of
Garland made two hours speech
in the forenoon in favor of the bill,
exhaustIng the question for a legal
standpoint. After recess Mr.. Wood
replied to Rr, Rector. He was fol-
lowed by Messrs. Tappan and Herrn
also in opposition to the measure.
Then vote was taken on the bill
and it failed to passages Al, noes
AZ. On a.motion to reconsider the
the vote and table that motion,
pairs were not adhered to and the
vote was; Ayes 43, noes 45 The
motion to reconsider will have to
be disposed of within two days or
be considered abandoned, under
the amended rule of the house.
The contest yesterday was what
might be described as full OF ginger.
The debate was spicy and was heard
by a large crowd; the balloting was
intensely exciting, and the days
proceedings mark distinctive
event in history of the Thirty-sec
oud general assembly.
The senate concurred in the
house resolution to extend the ses-
sion forty days, by a vote of
twenty-four yeas to SIX nays, SEN

twice in the senate and referred to

Towards the close of the days ses-
sion a hot contest took place in an
effort to call the bill back from the
committee. The senate adjourned
pending a debate on a motion by
Mr., Hillhouse to instruct the chair
man OF the railroad committee to
return the bill early this morning
No new measures were introduced
and only two measures were

FRICTION REMOVED.
Germany Withdraws Her Warships
From Manila-Reported Clash
Between German and Amer
leans Is False.

Washington, Feb, 28. The Ger
man government has set at rest
effectually the rumors of purpose
on its part, directly or indirectly,
to embarass the United States in
the Philippine islands, and has
given a signal manifestation of its
desire to promote the most cordial
relations between Germany and
the United States by ordering the
withdrawal of all vessels of it's navy
from Philippine waters and placing
the lives and property of its sub
jects there under the protection of
the United States government.
The action taken is regarded
here as master stroke in diplo-
macy, but which will be removed
all possibility Of clash between
Germanyand interests in and about
Manila and notice to all the world,
especially to any Americans who
entertained any suspicion of SIMS
ter designs by Germany of the wish
and purpose of the German empire
to cultivate the friendship OF the
United States BY it Germany at
once places the protection of all
her large interests in the islands
almost completely in our hands.
The announcement of this act of
the German government came at
the close of a day that had been
full of sensational rum0rs of a
Clash between the Americans and
the Germans in Manila, the rumors
finally going so far as to say that
Admiral Dewey had fired on and
sunk a German vessel at Manila
