Editor E. K. Abbott and friend,
Earl A. Graham from Indiana, left
OF Saturdays train for Great Falls.
Mr.. Abbott has left Neihart and
possibly may not return. He will
seek greener pastures and whether
he finds them remains to be seen.
Mr.. Abbott came to Neihart in the
winter 80 and '01 and has devoted
himself to the Neihart Herald ever
since. He has done everything in
the newspaper line to sdvance the
best interest of the place. Always
enterprising and firm in the belief of
the future greatness of the camp.
He has made an excellent editor and
was not afraid to expose wrong do
ing or doors throughout his manage
ment of the paper. IIe might have
been wrong in come instances but
was always ready to quit when in
such a course. He has gained many
noble fights and has male on ac-
count of it many friends and enemies.
His enemies are of no concern to him
as bis conscience is clear. He went
away from here wronging no man
and leaving a record for good citizen
ship which any man might be proud
of. Neihart has lost a good citizen.

stalled furnishing a very fine system
for heating the building. The water
is heated from a large furnace in the
basement. The water pipes are
placed in the fire box of the furnace
which when heated forces the hot
water up through the building,
while the cold water returns to the
furnace. Also a smaller furnace
supplies the house with hot water for
washing purposes. We areinformed
that the company will fit up in hand
some style one of the store rooms
on the ground floor for offices.

NOTES OF THE STAGE.

TINE man who never misses q
Il meal. but who rarely. if ever,
paws his bill, unless forced to do so,
is introduced in a rollicking farce
comedy, The Star Boarder." to be
offered at Harper's theatre Tuesday,
Oct. 9. 1t il typical boarding house
play that represents several ife-fke
characters and contains a world of
fun-making action, laughter-provok-
ing situations and sayings. There
are songs, speciaIties, dances and
beautiful young women. Altogether
II is an ideal piece of its kind and de-
signed TO produce riot of merriment.
Playgoers are promised all the fun
that's coming to them when they STE
this latest novelty. Charles II. Boyle
appears in the title role and makes
the "Boarder'' one of the most nat
urAl as well as funniest characters
ever encountered on the stage.
That beautiful and thrilling story
of the southland. "Old Arkansaw, -"
has been secured by Manager bleuer
for tomorrow night. This great play
was written by Fred Raymond, author
of The Missouri Girl" and during
it's city run was pronounced by Promi-
nent critics even better than Mr.. Ray
mond's famous comedy. A quantity
of wonderfully constructed scenic
devices. together with an electrical
fountain, have certainly pointed out
to playgoers of America that there is
something new under the sun. "
During the progress of the play an
exciting and realistic "hold-uP" of an
express train occurs, and during the
action of the exciting scene the ex-
press car is destroyed by explosives
and the safe looted of it's contents.
All this actually takes place before
the eyes of the audience. The ar
rangement of the great scene is truly
most remarkable and the only feature
of the kind ever presented success
fully on any stage.

There is no better medicine for the babies
than Chamder!ain's Cough Remedy. Its
pleasant taste and prompt and effectual
cures make it favorite with mothers and
small children. 1t quickly cures their coughs
and colds, preventing pneumonia OF other
serious consequences. 1t also cures Group
and has been used in tens of thousands of
cases without single failure so far we
have been able to learn. 1t not only cures
Group but when given as soon as the croupy
cough appears, will prevent the attack. In
cases of whooping cough it liqueties the
tough mucus, making it easier to expector-
ate, and lessons the severity and frequency
of the paroxysms of coughing, thus depriv-
ing that disease of all dangerous conse-
quences. For sale by A. A. Howes & Co.,

| Herbert Putnam, Librarian of Congress,
opens the February Atlantic with strik-
ing and valuable article upon the Library,
sketching its history, its strength and
weakness, and showing what it needs to
make it truly national and effective. In
| cidentally, it's Deficiencies and it's neglect
by Congress are shown in strong contrast
with the munificent and public spirited
treatment of the British Museum by the
English Parliament.
| In the February number of Appletons'

bridge of Harvard University sounds a
much needed warning against the South
Sea Bubbles in Science which have been
SO numerous and disastrous during recent
years. The Kelley motor, gold from sea-
water, energy from nothing, and many
others of the absurd propositions which
have recently been used to rob the public,
are moralized upon.
