INDIFFERENCE,
Some Business Men Allowing Board of
Trade Sentiment to Die,

Some Business Men Allowing Board of
Trade Sentiment to Die.
Missoula, May 17-There seems to be
an Indifference on the part of the bust
ness men of the city in regard to the
board of trade and it's work. There
have been several meetings of the
board called during the past month or
six weeks that have hardly had a quo
rum. This Indifference is not encourag-
ing to those who are trying to carry on
the work of the board, and it is hoped
that the next meeting will call out a
good attendance. 1t is admitted by all
that the board of trade is doing the
city much good and that it has already
accomplished much. The coming sum-
mer will be a busy one for the board,
as the meeting of the irrigation con-
gress and it's local arrangements will
be entirely in charge of this organiZa-
ton. There are several other import
ant matters that demand the attention
of the board that the business men of
the city ought to take an interest in,
and for this reason 1T is unfortunate
that the meetings of the board do not
call out a better attendance. Those
who give their services to the board
certainly have a right to demand that
the merchants and others of the city
at least take the time to attend the
meetings. The next call for meeting
will be made in few days and the at
tendance ought to be a large one.

HIGH WATER is DUE.
Bridges and Supports Repaired in Antici-
patton of q Freshet.

Missoula, May 1G-The last work has
been done on local bridges and bulk
heads and the public is now waiting for
the high water. There has been a good
hard rustic for three or four weeks to
get this work done, but it is all out Of
the way now, and the foods may come
if they insist upon it, It is strange that
this work is always postponed until the
water has begun to rhe, when it might
be done to much better advantage
when the water is a its low stage. Rock
is dumped into the river that does not
do any good whatever. when it might
be placed where it would do good II the
work were done at the right time. But
it is all done now for this season. Some
of it will have to be done over next
spring when the water gets high again,
but if precedent is followed nothing
will be done until the rising water
again causes alarm.

Should Connect With Main Sewer

Missoula, May lin connection with
the recent discussion of the measures to
be adopted regarding the public health
it has been suggested that an ordinance
should be passed that will compel all
property owners to connect with the
sewer system wherever it is possible
The sewers have been in for several
years and there are very few places
that have been connected with them
If such an ordinance as the one sug-
gested We're passed and enforced it
would do away with numerous vaults
and cesspools in the central port of the
city, which are certainly not calculated
to improve the public health.

TWO NOTED MEN

Somebody said the other day that al
all the stories that are related about
Mark Twain and his boon companion
Rev. Joe" Twichell, of Hartford
were collected they would make a size
able volume" There is every reason
why Mark should take to Twichell,
for Twchell is a broad-gauged man,
full of sense and possessing a keen
appreciation OF humor. A few years
ago ! met him at luncheon in this city
and found him a most agreeable COM
panion. He had just returned from
Europe and brought over the latest
story of that always diverting gentle
man, the driver of the Irish jauntlng
car. A traveller happened to meet one
of these drivers who evidently had
seen better days, for he was little
more than a mass of rags from head to
foot. The traveller must have looked
as If he was impressed with that fact
for the driver, with slight twinkle
in his eye said to him.. Perhaps you
think | am not wearing very ilgint

eler bluntly, nov that you speak of ii,
it seems to me that you might posi-
bly, be better dressed" Exactly" re-

Y. M, c. A. WORK IN SAN JUAN
AND PORTO RICO.

Following Is the report of the repre-
sentatives Of the army and navy de-
partment of the Young Meme Christian
associations at San Juan Porto Rico
for September, 1899;
owing to the frequent rains and ex-
treme heat, With the accompanying fe-
vers, September has been trying
month for Christian workers in Porto
| Rico, nevertheless. something has been
accomplished for the Master. While in
no way neglecting the secular, special
efforts have been made to do a larger
and more aggressive spiritual work.
| These ought We to have done, and not
to leave the other undone'
Mr.. Smith in organizing the San Juan
branch of the Army and Navy Young
| Mems Christian association showed
! foresight in securing a location for the
rooms in the very center of the city, and
yet at convenient distance for our SOL
diers This fact with the attractions of
our cheerful and well equipped quarters,
| and the knowledge that a cordial well
come Awaits them, has caused our
| building to be the headquarters for
hundreds of our boys in blue during
the hast month.
OF the privileges extended probably
none are more appreciated by the sol
diers and sailors than the use of our
large and carefully selected circulating
library. 1t is only when we know that

are sowing seed that will yield an
abundant harvest for good.
Our restaurant where good food may
be had at any hour of the day or even
ing, without the temptations found in
the cafes of San Juan, is still one of
the valuable preventive features of our
work.

this move from the first Fifteen con-
versions have been reported and the
men by their lives proving the power
of Christ to save. Five Of these con-
verts are from the hospital corps and
are developing into practical Christian
workers. We expect God to bless their
efforts as they labor among their sick
comrades. Very many have asked for
prayers and we feel that we have seen
only the beginning of a deep spiritual
work
Morning prayers are held every week
day at O'Clock A Bible class Sunday
at a. m. and Bible readings for young
converts at 3 p. m. Sundays. BY per-
mission of Col. De Busy services are

JOHN RANDoLF TUCKER.

John Randolf fuckers book, 1.-THE
meeting with a hearty reception. The
book will help keep his memory green
revealing him as commanding intel
! lect, a valuable contributor to the dis
cusson of the higher problems OF
| craftsmanship. Tucker, Ran" Tuck
| er, as his intimates We're wont to call
| him, was one Of the most charming of
men, as number of his old New
| Haven friends. well know. The Mail
and Express says of Mr.. Tucker: AS
I write l am thinking not of his
achievements as a lawyer, law
maker or college professor, but Of his
rare social gifts. A more companion
able person | never met He was the
possessor of an inexhaustible store of
wit and humor, and when it came to
storytelling, was well-nigh unrivall-
ed. Some of his most famous stories
must have persisted with him At all
events 1t is difficult to imagine any
body else venturing to tell them 1t
was worth taking long journey to
hear him relate the particulars of
certain discussion down South con-
corning the Immortality of the soul in
which smelling bottle figured He
once told this story in Washington at
dinner party at which Oliver Wen
dell Holmes was present and by the
time he finished the autocrat was so
absolutely broken up with laughter
that he had to go and lie down. He
begged Tucker to come over to Boston
and wake his club up with it. Tuck
er's talent for epigram is illustrated by
a remark he made while he was con-
gresham in reference to Bancroft, the
historian. Bancroft was present in the
supreme court one day during the
trial of a case in which Tucker was
counsel. While the lawyer opposed TO
him was addressing the court, Tuck
er's attention was directed to the fact
that Bancroft had quietly gone to
sleep. With sly glance at his OPP
ponent he remarked: 1T is only prop
er that history should sleep while fic-
ton speaks"
