influence action on the peace

CHAPPLE DRUG COMPANY.
"NEIGHBOR JACK
The Home Talent Production Attracted q
Large Audience.

Large Audience.
A<1arge audience assembled at the
Billings opera house last evening to
hear home talent present "Neighbor
lakewood" and those in attendance
certainly got the full worth Of their
money; the play began at $50 and
lasted for four hours and fifteen min
utes, or until IL AS a. m. And then a
half-dozen of the twenty-five scenes
described in the synopsis were omit
ted; it would have taken fully an hour
longer if these had also been presented.
The curtain went down after each
scene, which practically made the play
Il of twenty five acts, and never, in
the history Of the drama in Billings,
has so much play been presented for so
little money. The audience, however,
enjoyed the production, Miss Mickey
and Walk being presented with hand
some bouquets during the evening in
recognition Of their histrionic talent,
while along about the eighteenth scene
an immense bouquet of vegetables, con-
sisting of turnips. potatoes, cabbages
and onions (hinc lilac lacrimae) was
passed up to the stage as q testimonial
of the merits of the entire company.
This expression of approval virtually
brought down the house with applause
and the actors, no doubt, felt relieved
that the vegetables were passed up in a
quiet and decorous manner instead of
being thrown upon the stage by the au-
dience. - a
However, some of the performers
showed real dramatic ability, but it
would be unfair to mention one with
out naming all who took part, and The
Gazette desires to distribute the honors
equally. It is of the opinion, though,
that the play would have been better
appreciated if it had been commenced
in the middle of the afternoon Or it's
production spread over two evenings
it was altogether too much of a good
thing for a single sitting. But the
presentation of "Neighbor lakewood"
| will be remembered in Billings; it de-
veloped the fact that this city, which is
never behind in anything, possesses as
much histrionic talent as any town in
the state.

THE CITY
A Lively Contest Promised for Next Mon
day-The Registration.

A Lively Contest Promised for Next Mon
day-The Registration.
The time for fling nominations Of
dandidates for city offices closed this
afternoon, the names Of the aspirants
being published in our advertising COL
The election occurs mex Mon
day and as the day approaches consider
able interest is being manifested. es.
pecially in the contest for mayor. MI.
Yegen, it would seem, has the best of
the situation, as he is the only south
side candidate, and the vote on the
north side will be divided between
Mayor Smith and DR.. Rinebart. 1t is
not thought. however, that Mr.. Yegen
will have a walkover and the result Of
the mayoralty contest will remain in
doubt until the votes are counted.
The fight for police magistrate is still
more complicated, there being six can
didates in the field. and it would re-
qui1e rare political sagacity to name
the order i'll which they will come
under the wire. Five of them are
bound to be left, however, unless there
is a tie vote. and the laugh therefore
will be distributed against those defeat
ed; a single candidate will not have to
bear the burden.
The contest for city treasurer is CO.
ing to be a very close one. H. v.
Bailey and Hugh Evans. the two can
didates, are both competent and popu-
lar and are now believed to be running
neck and neck. The city's strong-box
will be safe whichever wins, and the
finish will be watched with interest.
Aldermanic contests have developed
in the Second and Fourth wards. In
the former, Geo. W. Robbins is out
against H. F. Clement, while in the
Fourth, which elects two, Alderman
Szitnick, F. R. St. John and j. ". APP
pleman are in the field. Geo. F. Ben
Dighof has no opposition in the First
and in the Third Grant Lamport has
retired in favor of U. E. Frizelle.
Registration closed yesterday after
noon at 5 o'clock. The total number
registered, as reported by the agent for
publication, is 4S3, divided as follows
First ward, 115; Second. 1874; Third.
90; Fourth, 152.
The voting places are as follows

HAD HIS BACK BROKEN.

Yet Lives to Tell the StOry-A. G. HOOley
Visits Billings.
A. G. Hooley Of Grand Forks, N. D.,
we'll known here, has been in Billings
for several days on business.
Mr.. Hooley bears the distinction of
being man who has had his back
broken but yet lives. W6ich is the only
incident of it's kind known. Several
years ago, in New York. he was
thrown from a horse, meeting with the
injury above stated and his escape from
death is certainly a miracle. He is en-
joying good health now and gives no
appearance of ever having been injured.
