LIBBY ITEMS.

Special Correspondence of the Bee.
There is now much speculation over
late railroad rumors and people generally
are preparing for and anticipating gen
cral activity. 1t is reported on what
appears to be authority that work is to
be commenced in the near future on the
proposed Kalispell- Libby cutoff route.
Libbyites are jubilant over the report
and real estate owners along the line of
survey are going about with a Jim Hill
grin. New townsitcs are being plated
in the Fisher district and it is conceded
that there will eventually be a big town
out in that section.
w. A. Hills and wife have returned
from Victoria, where they attended the
northwest shooting tournament Bill
retained the championship of the north
west and besides brought back one of
the individual trophies. He parted com
pany with the Globe trophy, however,
but Willie doesn't care much about
newspaper trophies anyway.
S. l.. Boyd, superintendent of trans
portation of the p. N. w. M. T. M. COM
pany Qimited), has returned from a trip
to Great Falls and brought Mrs. Boyd
back with him. He is receiving congrat-
ulations. The bride is extremely good
looking.
James Kennedy and George Hawkins
have departed to spend the glorious 4th
in Flathead.
About half of Libby will follow the
baseball nine to kalispell on July Sd and
be present to witness the game on the
4th. The Libby boys have all kinds Of
money to put up on their game. Out of
series of games they haven't lost one
this season and it is possible that the
boys may be a little bit conceited, yet it
is conceded that the kalispell boys will
have to play ball if they win.
George Robinson, the mining king,
has purchased a group of claims on
Blacktail hill and is quite likely to put
in Il new stamp mill.
George II. Grubb was at Libby during
the week and went out into the Fisher
district. 1t is given out on the dead
quiet that there is another stamp mill
going in in that district and that Messrs.
Sanford and Grubb of kalispell could
explain all about it.
A. G. Beager and Frank Presley were

Child Fatally Burned.

Special to the Bee.
Missoula, July 6.-Dorothy Whitaker,
years of age, was fatally burned on the
4th while playing with iirecrackers. A
smouldeiing tirecracker lodged in the
fluffy material of which her dress was
made and in moment her dress was in
flames. She was burned frightfully and
died short time later.
In its latest crop report, the Northern
Pacific says relative to conditions in
Montana In the Gallatin valley the
continued dry weather and intense heat
of the past week has made the outlook
now as unfavorable as it was favorable
two weeks ago. In the valley proper.
where water is abundant, and in irrigat-
ed districts an average crop is expected,
but in unirrigated localities the crop
average will probably be reduced one
half. Immediate heavy rains, however,
would aid materially in saving some of
the burned up wheat districts. In the
Bitter Root valley the heavy rains of the
18th and 10th greatly improved the
prospects of fine crops. Grain will soon
begin heading out. In the eastern part
of the state the first alfalfa crop is about
in, but other crops are suffering for want
of rain.

The Bee was very mnch in evidence
during the celebration as 500 papers were
sent to Columbia Falls for distribution
and it was hard to find rancher lum-
herman or business man without a copy.
Many favorable comments were heard on
all sides. The opinion that the Bee fur
nishes all the news was generally
expressed to the Columbia Falls rep
resentative, who assured them that they
would always receive full value for their
money when buying the Bee.
Since the removal of the Columbian
no newspaper has noticed the doings
of the people in any way, and this act
on the part of the Bee, was, on that
account, more appreciated by the large
crowd.

dents of Bad Rock, Whitetish Bolton,

VIII Come to KalisIlell.

State Senator w. II. Campbell of Liv
ingston was in the capital Sunday. leav
ing at night for Great Falls. Senator
Campbell has resided 10 years in Liv
ingston, but expects to take up his resi-
dence in some other part of the state
late in the present year. He has not yet
determined where he will go.
II like Livingston in most respects,
he said Sunday night in referring to his
intended removal, but for years I have
been anxious to leave Oh account of the
fearful wind storms we have there
These storms have become exceedingly
annoying to me, and to a practicing ply
sician, who must be out a good deal in
them, they are particularly trying.
Il don't know where l will locate, but
it will be some place in Montana. This
state is certainly good enough for any
one" Helena Herald.
DR.. Campbell, who had been in Kalis-
pell for several days, left for Livingston
last night. He is very favorably i'm
pressed with this locality and has de-
cided to come here to live and practice
his profession, in which he has achieved
an enviablc position. He. expects to be
able to get here, accompanied by Mrs.
Campbell, about the end of October or
the beginning of November. This will
give Kalispell representation on the state
board of medical examiners, of which
DR.. Campbell was president for two
years and of which he is now member.

are arranging the sleeping quarters,
Zuckmeier will accompany me after
nsh for supper" said Smith.
And so it was Zuckmeier. Lucky
fellow, provided he got the fish, but
decidedly otherwise if he did not, for
he would have to eat perch for sup
per if he did not himself get a bass.
An hour later, when the sun had
sunk behind the granite hills. Smith
and Zuckmeier returned. There were
but our bass in the canoe with
them, and Smith had caught them.
Three small perch accompanied the
bass to the kitchen, ana these Zuek-
meier ate without a word. The rules
of the club would not even permit
him to tell of the big one that got
away.
The first fish had been caught:
camp was established; the first meal
had been eaten; the rule of Boss
Fisherman Smith was over until the
day of departure came, and as each
man rolled himself in his blanket
that night it was with a determina-
ton to catch more and bigger fish
than anyone else in the part before
the vacation days on Kah-pee-kog
lake were over.
But the fish they caught, or did
not catch, as the case may be-, and
the tales they told, are other stories
for another time.

AN L CLOCK.

vice
About Times fight,
And think to scare us with your wheels

Go slow tonight.
Dull preacher of one dreary, weary creed
By Death inspired,
Inc limits of our patience you exceed
And make us tired.
No need for you to tell the lapse of life
With tick and chime.
no made you umpire, bidding US to strife,
By calling Timer"
You stand there, like a Pharisee of yors,
Proclaiming grace,
With two admonitory hands before
Your SNUG, fiat face.
Although you know the time of day at
home,
Beware Mistakes;
It's yesterday in China now. In Rome
Tomorrow breaks.
And somewhere off in Mars or Mercury, no
doubt,
If it could speak
For us to hear, some clock tonight bawls
"'Tis Tuesday week!"
While enc on t'other side of space (may be
You'd call 1t slow)
Is marking time at "half-past twenty-three
Six weeks ago!'
So don't get gay with humble sons of men,
As some clocks do;
One day your wheels will slacken up, and
Good Night tojyou.

upon which the opinions of fishermen
may differ. I
lone would think fish the only thing
worth living for" said a matronly
woman, who had evidently tired of the
long harangue, but her sarcasm was
lost on that crowd; the queen herself
could not have turned that converse
ton into other channels. Those men
were out for a good time as they I'M
derstood it, and fish were their aim and
object. Nothing else mattered much.
1t is considerable of a journey in
point of time from Toronto to Kah-
pee-kog, and in previous years these
fishermen had gone by way of Muskoka
Wharf and Barnesdals. but some one
had proposed that a new route be tried,
as it might save time, and the sugges-
ton was promptly acted upon. For
that reason the boat line running north
from Penetang through Georgian bay
carried a larger number of passengers
than usual that 4th of August last,
and the dinner a short.
What matters a dinner" said philo-
sophical Zuckmeier, when black bass

But the way was longer than Zuck-
meier anticipated, and it was not until
the next afternoon that our canoes and
baggage, and, last but not least, our
fishing tackle, was unloaded at Sweets
camp at the mouth of the Moon river,
to which point it had been transported
from Sans Souci in the old yawl of the
genial King, an Indian of the Canadian
Indians. Up to that point there had
been nothing to do but talk. and so
many opinions had been aired with
such vigor hat it was a relief to hear
the last of them, and forget all differ
ences in an effort to accomplish the
.emainder of the journey to Kah-pee-
kog by the method.
Did you ever paddle a canoe? If
YOU did, what was your sensation the

FRENCH OFFICIAL NOTE.
Representatives of France Instruct
ed to Sound the Powers in Regard
to a Common Programme. .
IDENTICAL NOTE DELIVERED TO EACH.
Six Conditions Presented to Form %
Basis for Peace Negotiations with
China, which the French Repub-
lie Consider as Legitimate and
Just.

Paris, Oct. 6.-The following official
note has been issued:
1.-The foreign minister has INSTRUCT
ed the representatives of France to
sound the powers whose troops are
cooperating with ours III the extreme
east regarding the adoption of a com
mon programme for h negotiations
with China. Our representatives ac-
Quilted themselves of this mission and
left with the various foreign minis
tiers a cop of the following note:
The Identical o
Elm sending their forces to China
the powers proposed. nrst of all, to
deliver their legations. Thanks to
their union and the valor of their
troops this aim has cen attained. 1t
is now a question of securing from
the Chinese government, which has
given Prince Ching and Ii Hung
Chang full powers to negotiate and
treat in it's name, suitable r~eparation
for the past and serious guarantees
for the future. Permeated with the
| spirit which inspired the previous dec-
larations of the different govern
ments, the government of the repub-
lie believes it sums up their real senti-
ments in the following points, which
it submits as a basis for negotiations
to be entered upon Immediately after
the usual v~erifcation of the powers:
Basic Conditions.
"'First, the punishment of the
principal culprits who will be desig-
mated by the representatives of the
mowers at pekin.
Second, the maintenance of the
prohibition of the import of arms.
Third, equitable indemnities to
states, societies and individuals.
Fourth, the formation of a per-
manent guard for Pekin legations.
Fifth, the dismantlement of h
Notifications.
sixth, military occupation of two
or three points on the road from Tien
Tsin to Pekin, which would thus be
always open to the legations wishing
to go to the sea or to forces proceed
ing to Pekin from the sea.
Could Hardly be Declined.
Presented collectively by h rep
resentatives of the powers, supported
by the presence Oh the international
troops, it appears impossible to the
government Of the republic that these
conditions, which are so legitimate,
would not be accepted by the Chinese
government at an early date

IN UNCLE SANS FOOTSTEPS.
England Follows Our Lead IA the
Chinese Negotiations.

Chinese Negotiations.
Washington, Oct. 6.-The British
government has followed in the foot
steps of the United States in the Chi
nese negotiations. 1t has authorized
Sir Claude Macdonald, the British
minister at Pekin, to enter into rela-
tions with the Chinese officials, just
as our government did in the case of
Minister Conger. 1t has left to it's
minister discretionary power to pass
upon the sufficiency of the credentials
of Ii Hung Chang, Prince Ching and
the other Chinese ENJOYS. Although
the formal response to the last Ger
man proposition has not been re-
turned by Lord Salisbury, the United
States government has been informed
that, though such an answer may
not be made at all, being unnecessary
in the light of recent developments,
yet Sir Claude Macdonald will be in
structed to make the same inquiries
relative to the punishment of the Chi
nese ringleaders that have been COM
mitted TO Mr.. Conger.
