Bozeman, Nov. 80, 1900.
The football game this afternoon at
the college grounds resulted in a victory
for the college team. The game was the
hottest of the season. and the Butte
boys have no occasion TO feel sore at
their defeat, because the college team
was far heavier h a they. This game
goes to the heaviest and quickest. and
while the Butte boys were quick enough
and put up as line a game as anyone
would like to see, they lacked the
strength to make their plays stick.
On Friday afternoon Messrs. Nelson
Story and j. M. Lindley became in
volved in a controversy in the post
office that was continued out to the
sidewalk, where a large crowd was at

ers drew close so that nothing would
escape them, when Mr.. Story became
excited and drew from his overcoat
pocket a large revolver. This had a
magical effect on the crowd. which at
once made a break n sought a safer
distance. The argument lasted until the
street was crossed, and Mr.. Lindley
stepped into the entrance of his office
and Mr.. Story proceeded to unite HIS
horse and drive off home. A warrant
was subsequently issued for the arrest
of Mr.. Story.

Bozeman merchants are all prepared
for a rushing business during the lays
preceding Christmas and New Years.
Every arrangement has been made to
handle orders expeditiously, and a larger
and more select stock is carried this
year than ever before. The wants of all
can be satisfied, and the business men
are feeling reasonably sure that the
volume of business done this year will
exceed that of any that has gon be-
fore.
