ALIAS SUMMONS.

TN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE
L Seventh Judicial District of the State of
Montana, in and for the county of Yellow
stone.
Lura l.. Kearns, plaintiff, VS.. John A.
Kearns. defendant.-ALlAS SUMMONS.
The State of Montana sends greeting to
the above named defendants
You are hereby summoned to answer the
complaint in this action, which Is filed IN
the office of the clerk of the district court,
and to file your answer and serve a cop
| thereof upon the plaintiffs attorney within
twenty days after the service of this sum-
mons, exclusive of the day of service: and in
case of your failure to appear or answer,
Judgment will be taken against you by de-
fault, for the relief demanded in the COM
plant.
The said action is brought to have the
bonds of matrimony now existing between
the plaintiff and defendant dissolved upon
the grounds of extreme cruelty. That is to
say that during the month Of March. 1899.
the defendant kicked plaintiff and thereby
inflicted upon her great bodily injury, and
and that at various other times de-
PENDANT struck and slapped plaintiff, and
that on or about the first day of July, 1900,
at Columbus, Montana, the defendant used
vile and indecent language to the plaintiff
and threatened to take her life, he having
the ability SO to do.
Witness my hand and the seal of said
court this seventeenth day of December, 1900.

M. e. CHURCH IMPROVEMENT.
Work on an Addition Will Begin
at Once.

A meeting Of the trustees Of the
Methodist Episcopal church was held
Thursday night at which time the pre-
liminary steps were taken for the en-
largement of the church ediice, work
upon which will commence in the
course of the next few weeks. The
plans for the improvement have been
the Methodist Episcopal church build
ing society and, as soon as received
bids for the work will be accepted.
The cost Of the contemplated i'm
provement will be 90, 500 and all this
amount has been practically pledged
through the personal efforts of the
pastory Rev. G. G. Stull. The plans
will call for a brick addition to the
north side of the present edifice, size
% by 80 feet, a tower 10 by 10 feet,
together with a basement under the
entire building, the latter to be used
for Sunday school purposes and social
gatherings. Entrance to the basement
will be made ON Twenty-ninth street,
under the tower. The addition will
give the church a seating capacity of
over 300, while that of the basement
will be over 200.
The contract for the stone to be
used in the foundation has been let to
Rogers & Clark, who will begin plac-
ing same Oh the ground next week and
the foundation work will be begun at
that time also.

COLDER WEATHER.
Thermometer Drops Down to Ten Degrees
Under Zero.

Billings is now experiencing some
really cold winter weather, which has
prevailed for several days with a sharp
easterly wind, but at no time has it
been quite SO cold as it was about
November IS, last, when the ther-
mometer took a sudden tumble to 10
degrees below zero. Since that time
zero and below zero weather has pre-
vailed on several occasions, but not
until Thursday night did the weather
compare with that of the night OF
November 10, and then it was be
tween nine and 10 degrees below zero.
With the exception of the heavy snow
in November, but little of the beauti-
full has fallen since then, and it causes
no little uneasiness to the stockmen,
who very much dislike to see freezing
weather without snow, as it means
that the stock will be cut off from the
water supply.

O M PROBABLE BILLS
Which Will Be introduced in the State
Legislature.

One of the most important bills that
will be introduced in the legislature,
if not the most important, will be the
eight-hour law, to which all parties in
the state are pledged. While such a
law will, 1t seems certain, be passed,
there is liable to develop a contest over
the form Of the bill. Several lawyers
throughout the state have expressed
the opinion that such a law as it is
contemplated-that is, n making a
legal day of eight hours apply to
underground workers and employees in
mills and smelters-is unconstitu-
tional. It is known that d Helena at
torney, who is considered n OF the
best constitutional lawyers in the
state, has said that such a law would
not stand the test of the courts. An
eight-hour bill will probably be intro
duced by a member of the house from
| Silver Bow county.
The initiative and referendum is GER
tain to bob up again during the sew
enth session of the legislative assem-,
bly,. 1t has made it's appearance with
regularity in Montana legislatures fol
a number of years, and the coming
session is to be made no exception
The labor element in the Legislature
will stand by tho measure, and an ex'
traordinary effort will be made te
enact the bill, although those &C
quainted with the situation do not
anticipate that the friends Of the bill
will be successful. Representative
Fred Sander, of the Lewis and Clarke
county delegation, is working upon {
bill, and it is probable that he viii
introduce it in the house. Mr.. Sander
is a populist elected on the fusion
ticket. He has long been allied will

IMPLEMENT DEALERS TO MEET.

A. W. Miles, president of the Mon
tana Agricultural Implement Dealers
association, has issued the call for the
annual meeting of the association, to
be held in Helena, February l.. The
organization was formed only n year
ago and the meeting which is to be
held in the capital city on the first OF
next month is the second gathering of
the dealers. The object of the asso-
citation is to promote the general vel
fare of merchants who deal in agrl-
cultural implements. The lowering OF
freight rates, etc., are the main pur-
poses of the association, and through
its agencies farmers are enabled to
secure their farm implements much
cheaper than they possibly could have
done otherwise.

BARN
Frozen Hydrant Interferes with Work
of Department.

VI ACp0AtAACASs -
About II O'Clock last Saturday
night the fire department. responded
to an alarm sent in from the north
side. The hose company turned out
promptly and found the cause of the
alarm to be a fire in the coal shed of
the Rev. Mr.. Stull, who resides at
No. 312, North Twenty-eighth street.
The nearest hydrant was discovered to
be frozen and much valuable time was
lost in making connection with
another some distance off. Before
water could be obtained the fire had
communicated to the barn belonging
to Charles Bair.
Well directed streams speedily ex-
tinguished the fire, but not before the
shed had been consumed and the in
terror of the barn completely Quilted.
The total loss entailed is about 5000.

MORE HOME PRODUCTION.
Too Much Money Sent Out of State for
Different Articles of Food.

The speaker was a we'll known Hell
ena merchant who was discussing the
subject of the vast amount of money
sent out of Montana annually for
different classes of food consumed in
the state that could be produced here
if the citizens would only make a
move in the right direction, says a
Helena paper.
cit seems odd, doesn't it, when
you hear about eastern dressed beef
being shipped into the state? But
about everybody who is posted knows
about it," continued the merchant.
"Just think of it, this great cattle
producing state sends east for beef
that was probably raised in the state
and sent east to be butchered. Every
Monday morning a carload of dressed
beef arrives in Butte from Omaha or
Chicago. It is divided between Hell
ena and Butte. What would be the
result if the best of Montana beef
were saved for the home market in
stead Of being shipped east necessitat~
ing shipping back the dressed article?
Why, the local butcher could put a
stop to importing dressed beef and
keep a large amount of money in the
state.
"Then, there's the question of
smoked meats. bacon and ham. How
many people realize the thousands of
dollars sent out of Montana annually
for that class Of food. The importa-
lions of smoked and other cured meats
far exceeds that of dressed beef.
Montana farmers do not seem to make
any Roadway raising hogs. There is
no better place in the country to raise
peas than in Montana and peas are ex-
cellent for feeding and fattening hogs.
More bushels of peas to the acre can
be raised in this state, especially with
irrigation, than any place I ever saw.
If the farmers would cultivate peas
for hog feed and commence with a
good breed Of hogs they would build
up an industry in this state that
would prove very profitable. They
will complain of hog cholera. If that
disease appears among a lot of hogs it
is because of the quality of food fur
nished the animals. 1t is often due to
feeding the hogs upon waste from
slaughter houses and the contents of
garbage barrels secured for the carting
away in the different towns. No
wonder the hogs have cholera. Give
them a pasture to run in, fatten them
OIL peas and grains that can be raised
in this state and there need be nc fea1
Of hog cholera.
"With a large population to support
in the different mining camps there
should be a more general home pro
duction Of the different articles OF
food. Take for instance the sugar
question. The best class Of beets fol
making sugar can be grown right here
in the Prickly Pear valley. Chemica
tests and analysis Of beets grown il
the valley, on a ranch close to Helena
} have proved the truth of this state
ment. Just think of the amount O
money sent out Of the state annual,
for sugar:
"Many other articles might b.
named. The subject is not a new one
It has frequently been agitated befor'
especially at the farmers institute
held in different parts Of the state
, 1t is regularly agitated, but the practi
) cal results appear to be lacking

SHOWS WISDOM.
Dull Season Advertising Is the Means
of Making Business.

Printers Ink for the last week of
the year offers to business men a
number Of timely suggestions, which
would be we'll for Billings merchants
to heed. For example: eff you need
adve1 Using at all you need it during
the dull spell that follows the holiday
season. Don't think there is no use
in pushing your business. Don't
get an idea that people stop buying
goods with the passing Of Christmas.
The beginning of the new year is a
very good time to get new customers
started with you. That your competi-
tors stop or decrease their advertising
Immediately after the holidays is the
very best reason why you should not
do So"
Jones, Of Binghamton--the man
who was able to ''pay the freight y
because he pushed his goods by adver-
Using them-was n ce asked what he
did about advertising in the dull sea-
son.
81 increase my ADVERTISING he
replied.
Did he lose money by it? If he had
lost money by it he would have
stopped it. Jones wasn't the man to
stay in a losing business.
Every merchant has some goods left
over after the holiday season that he
can't afford to carry. Almost every
family, except the very wealthy and
the very poor, a little money fol-
after Christmas buying. This money
is for bargains" The question in
the mind of the buyer at this season
is, who has tho bargains? The bar.
gain money will go for the bargains
that are advertised, to the merchant
who tells the buyers just what he has
and at what prices.
Merchants say it pays to mark
goods down in the dull season, SO as
10 get rid of them. If that is true.
then it pays to tell the buyers all about
them, for the buyers help the mer
chant. get rid of his surplus stock
That's what the merchant wants.
There are a few merchants in Bill

of their strongest advertising durin.

put forth bargains, which are sure t
be gobbled up by the ever watchfu

chant. in particular advertised
special sale a few days ago, at a tim
when business was supposed to be ex
tremely dull, following 80 close afte

the consequence. In conversation
with a Gazette representative he stat
ed that his sales amounted to $50
for the n day, while at a CORES
ponding time last year when he di

were less than $75. Other merchant
have only to ask this business ma
whether it pays to advertise. And
