Perry, the infant son Of DIR. Tllotson,
of Gilt Edge, died last Sunday night of
cholera infantum, after anillness which
lasted for several weeks. The funeral
services were conducted by the Rev.
Albert Pfaus at Gilt Edge Monday
afternoon at > o'clock, after which the
body of the child was brought to this
city and Inferred in the Lewistown
cemetery. The child was but seven
months old and was the pride of both
of his parents. Prior to removing to
Gilt Edge DIR. Tillotson practiced his
profession in Lewistown, and both he
and his wife have the sympathy of the
whole community in their latest Attic
ton.
Prof. Busenburg wishes us to state
that the figures previously given in
these columns in regard TO the attend
ance at the public schools of this city
should be changed, and that the actual
enrolment at the present time is asfol-
lows: First primary grade, Gj; second
primary grade, Az: first intermediate
grade, As; second intermediate grade,
40; assembly room, comprising the sixth,
seventh and eighth grades, l02; making
a total enrolment of $40. Elsewhere
in this issue appears a notice signed by
Professor Busenburg stating that no
pupils will be admitted To the primary
grades until after the holidays, the rule
to take effect onnext Tuesday morning.
John Gilkerson left Monday for Har-
low, where he will receive a large ship
ment of brook trout sent by the govern
ment hatchery at Bozeman for restock-
ing the streams in this vicinity. Twenty
five thousand were asked for, but about
5000 are expected. These will be di-
| vided between Spring Creek, East Fork,
| Mcdonald and Big Casino. The tank
for conveying them was made by Bart
| Noble and is warranted to hold both
water and fish. w. G.. Runzler, deputy
postmaster, deserves the major portion
| of the credit for securing the fish, as he
has conducted the correspondence, so
licited the funds and taken charge of
receiving them. He has been assisted
by a number of local sports, but on the
other hand has encountered many re-
bluffs and annoyances.
1t is to be hoped that the ensuing
campaign will be peaceable and that
all citizens will try and keep on their
good behavior and avoid disputes with
friends or foes. Should trouble of any
nature arise, a settlement will prob
ably have to be postponed until after
the election, as until then about all the
lawyers in Fergus county will be toe
busy looking after votes to listen tc
anybody's tale of woe. +. Il. Smith II

The infant son of grille Koos, who

suddenly last Sunday night fIom chol-
era infantum, and was lsid to rest in

this cause within the last few days.
Since Saturdays convention it has
been suggested that If the Fair associ-
