found this 50. Monday. Fortunately il
was 4 day when they had little To do
outside of marking their new stock of
jrwtlry ana rearranging after which to
go about their repair work. Conse-
uuently they had a chance to answer
the questions of the few anxious par
cntS who CHANGED To be on the street.
1t was not 50 very many people who
called upon them. but every one had
the same question.
Why didn't the no school alarm
ring. this morning, on time
The morning. if the reader remem-
bprs. was not one of the balmy spring
mornings. neither was it invigorating
winter weather. but it was cross be
tween a May thunder shower and a
Klondke blizzard.
Wires were broken" was Mr. Wick
ery's first answer. Then ne would wait
for something more to be said.
The facts of the case We're these. The
directors of the Village district and the
Williams district ordered the 1.45 alarm
to be blown. Then the school commit =
tee of the city ordered the High school
alarm for . clock.
When 1.45 arrived Mr. Nickery took
the plug from the wall and made the
connection of the wires, but not a
sound came from the great fire whistle
and not a stroke from the bell. In vain
did he try to work the electricity. but
not a sound could he bring forth. All
that could be heard was the shriekine
If the wind and the patter of the rain
ana the driving snow upon the glass in
front of the store.
Lines busted" was Mr. Nickery :
exclamation to those standing about
and then he rushed to the Western
Union telegraph office to telephone the
steam mill to have the engineer blow
four blasts for the no school signal
He also communicated with the electric
light office about the wires.
The people in the store waited and
kept on waiting. The directors. parents
ana scholars in other parts of the city
waited and listened and then tried It
over again. Scholars who have de
sire to build UP record for punctualty
ana attendance at school that they
may have their names on the black
board on the roll of honor. grew rest
less ana fretful and some even de
manded to be allowed to go to school
Every parent knew something was the
matter for they had the faith in the
directors to know that they would not
allow school to keep upon such a day.
Eight o'clock arrived and still there
was not a sound from the whistle Mr.
Nickery again frantically tried to
sound the alarm but not a sound

WILLIAM n. HUNT CHOSEN.
Nominated for Secretnry of State OF
Porto Rico.

Porto Rico.
William II. Hunt has been selected by
the President for Secretary of State Of
Porto Rico. His appointment will enable
Governor Allen TO carry out the plan OF
returning to the United States to consult
with the President about Porto Rican af-
fairs and to arrange his business inter-
ests.
Mr.. Hunt is an associate justice OF the
Supreme Court of Montana. He recently
accepted the position of agent of the
United States on the Claims Committee,
but will resign the office to become Secre-
tary of State for Porto Rico. He is son
of William H. Hunt, Secretary of the Navy
in Garfield's Cabinet, who died in St.
Petersburg while serving as United States
Minister to Russia. Mr.. Hunts nomina-
ton wa; sent to the Senate yesterday.
Judge Hunt is well known In Washing
ton thro ugh his connection with the Clark
senatorial election case. He appeared be-
fore the Serate Committee on Privileges
and Elections as a witness and testified
that he had been approached and offered
$4,000 if he would throw the disbarment
case against John B. Welcome cut OF
court. In the testimony taken in the csse
before the committee he gives his answer
to the offer in the following language:
why ] said. 1 would not do this for
all the money there is in the United Verde
and Anaconda mines together together
with every dollar owned by both Clark and

and peace of mind to the extent of grant

the extent of five minutes if did not be-
lieve il was right. That case must go
ahead. They do not know me.

Mr.. Clark's personal friend and business
associate left the convention before it had
made its nominations or transacted any
business and hurried back to Montana, ar
irving in time to receive Mr.. Clark's resig-
nation from the hands of his son. Then.
within a very few hours after the resigna-
ton was received, and only about twenty
four hours before the Governors return,
the Lieutenant Governor appointed Mr..
Clark to ELL the supposed vacancy. In this
behalf the undersigned allege, upon their
information and belief, THAT the Governor
of Montana was fraudulently and decep-
lively lured from the State by Mr.. Clark,
through Thomas Kinds, one of his recog-
nized agents and political workers. for the
express purpose of enabling Mr.. Clark to
resign in his absence and to be reinstated
by the appointment of the Lieutenant Gov
ernor before the Governor could return
1t is stated at the Capitol that while
Governor Smith may not have authority
to revoke the appointment made by the
Lieutenant Governor in his absence, the
Senate cannot now ignore the appointment
of Mr. Maginnis. since the matter has been
formally laid before the body by the pre-
siding officer.
Mr. Maginnis will arrive with his Gre
dentials on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Mr.. Chandler has received a protest
against Mr.. Clark being allowed to take
his seat. signed by Mr.. Stiff. DAILY lieu
tenant, who was Speaker of the Montana
House of Representatives at the last ses-
sion and some county officials.
The protest is very lengthy, and states in
part that eft is apparent from the facts
and circumstances following that at the
time Mr. Clark was delivering his speech
in the United States Senate notifying the
Senate of the fact that he had rendered his
resignation his son and others who were
associated with him during the contest be-
fore the Legislative Assembly in January,
1899, and who are shown to have been par

was to provide for its delivery TO the Lieu
