society's New Game, Siberian Whist.
The London Express says that Sibe-
rian whist seems to be causing a GER
tain amount of interest among the vo-
taries of bridge, but up to now is not
much understood in England. although
it is very much in vogue at CONSTANT
nOple and in Russia. It can be made
a much more gambling game than
bridge, as, although there is no dou-
bling, as in the former, the players can
outbid each other in the making Of
trumps. and the consequent penalties
or the losing of tricks may amount to
as much as 5000 points. Indeed it is
possible to lose as much with penny
points at Siberian whist 10 at bridge

BANKS AND
Report of State Examiner HudnaII to
Governor TooIe.

State Examiner w. B. Hudnall of
Helena has made a report to Governor
Toole, the first he has made since
taking AIS Office, a few months ago.
The reports deals with the condition
of state banks as we'll as counties: :
The bank examiner examined the
following banks: Bank of Boulder, ex
ahmed April 1; Bank of Twin Bridges,
examined April 10; Filling state bank
of Virginia City, examined April IL;
State Bank of Dillon, examined April
IS; Carbon County bank, examined
April 26. These were all found to be
in good condition.
After referring to the banks he has
examined, the examiner continues:
s'The following counties have been
examined: Jefferson, Madison, ,Beav-
erhead, Dawson, Custer, Yellowstone
and Carbon. In all of them the work
has been we'll done and was up to
date. The various Official bonds were
for the proper amounts, correctly
stamped, acknowledged and recorded.
Section 4367 of the political code
makes it the duty of the county treas
urer to obtain a bond from the banks
where county funds are deposited. In
four counties this law has not been
complied with, but in each the treas
urer promised to have it done at once
In Dawson county the amount OF
delinquent taxes for the past -four
years is quite small, but there is a to
tai of $16,76s.61 preceding 1898. Az
the period Of redemption OF all Of
these. has expired ! have requested
the commissioners to give the matter
immediate attention, getting tax deeds
for all property thus liable and ther
| selling the same SO that the county
and state will obtain the money dut
them"

THE PRESIDENTS TOUR.
Points That He Will Touch In
Montana.

Thos. H. Carter, ex-senator, has
returned to the state and has given
public the following statement regard
ing the presidents programme for his
tour of Montana:
1.-THE presidents train will come
east over lie Northern Pacific from
Spokane to Helena, arriving here at
5 a. M, lay %. They will be
switched directly to the Great North
ern tracks and proceed to Great Falls,
which city they will reach at 8:45 a.
m. The party will breakfast on the
train and be ready to take carriages
or otherwise conform to the local ar
rangements.
"The train will leave Great Falls be-
tween 10 and l O'clock, reaching Hele-
ma at 4 o'clock or shortly after. The
party will remain here until 10 p. M,
when the start win be made for Vel
lowstone park. They will reach Gin
nabar May 20, at 8 a. M, running
slowly so as to arrive there after
breakfast.
'In the park the party will visit
Mammoth Hot springs, Norris, Gey-
ser basin and the Grand canyon. They
will leave the park on the evening Of
May 81, arriving at Anaconda at 4 a.
NJ, June 1. I understand the visitors
are to breakfast at the hotel there.
Leaving Anaconda, the party will
arrive at Butte at 10 a. M, and re-
main until 8 p. M. 1t is probable a
short stop will be made at Dillon, en-
route south on the evening Of June
1. During the runs between cities,
the president and his cabinet will at
tend to official business, and as all
the space on the train will be fully
occupied, it is not expected that the
local reception committees will be
asked to go forward to meet the pres
ident."

GETS BIG CONTRACT.
Geo. A. Miller Vii Grade Government
Roads In Yellowstone Park.

From Sundays Daily Gazette.
Geo. A. Miller, the we'll known con-
tractor of this city, will leave tomor-
row for the Yellowstone National
park, where he has secured a large
contract for grading the roads. During
the last session of congress the sum
of $4,000 was appropriated for i'm
proving old and building new roads
in the park, andIit is a greater portion
of this work that Mr.. Miller has Sc
cured. He is to macadamize the road
from Mammtth Hot springs to Golden
Gate, a distance of about six miles,
but this is hot the most difficult nor
the largest piece of work he has. The
contract further calls for the building
of a road from Lake Outlet east to
the headwaters of the Shoshone river,
where a connection will be made with
a stage line from Cody, Wyo., on the
line Of the Burlington railroad, thus
making a new entrance to the parh.
This road will be about 80 miles in
length inside of the park limits.
Mr.. Miller was the successful bid
der out Of thirteen. The other twelve
are said to have pooled and it was
supposed that Mr. Miller was not on
the inside of the deal, but his being
awarded the contract shows that he
was onto the scheme to beat him out
of the work.
The government had a party of sur
veyors in the field last fall laying out
the new road from Inc Yellowstone
lake east, and a portion of the tim
Der through which the road is to run
was cut out at chat time.
Mr. Miller will take, an outfit of 80
teams from Billings and engage about
SO men to do the work.

named nothing but sidetracks will be
put in. That country is not thickly

SHEEP OUTLOOK IN OREGON.
VIM. Rea In Billings From a Western
Trip.

VIM. Rea, the st. Paul sheep buy
er and feeder, is spending a few days
in the city. He is returning east from
q trip to Oregon, wnere he went to
purchase sheep, but was unsuccessful.
He says the sheepmen are holding
their sheep at too high prices, asking
as high as $1,75 for y%earlings. The
ranges Of that state are overcrowded
and Mr.. Rea is of the opinion that
many thousand head will nave to be
shipped out. AS the market is al
ready glutted this will be the means
OF still further cutting down the price,
which MI. Rea thinks will be as low
as in 1896. The lambing season in
oregon is proving most successful,
many sheepmen reporting as high as
$50 per cent increase.

WONDERLAND" IS OUT.
Graetest Book Issued by N. Pho
Rate To Buffalo.

The Buffalo exposition has opened,
yet the railroads have not made any
rate from any point west of st. Paul.
1t is claimed that no rate on any road
anywhere, although some have been
advertised east Of st. Paul, has been
authorized. The trouble seems to be
that the different passenger associa-
lions cannot agree on a division. The
western roads, it is understood, have
agreed on a One-fare rate for the
round trip, good for 60 days, as far
east as Chicago but the Central Pas
senger association, which controls
east of that point, has not been able
to make a rate. There is not much
inquiry about rates in this city, but
in many places it has been quite large.
There is a probability Of the diff
Guilty being overcome shortly, as the
railroads are out for business. When
the trouble is finally settled 1t is be-
lieved that the rate to the exposi-
ton viii be very reasonable, in which
event many western people will take
advantage of it to go east, spending
most of the time in visiting their old
homes.
The railroad offices have received
information that owing to the great
amount Of passenger business on the
Southern Pacific and the tremendous
demand for cars, that road will not
be able to store coaches at San Fran
cisco during the Epworth League
meeting in July. That means that
visitors to San Francisco will not be
permitted OF occupy cars on the tracks
of the company during their stay
there, but will have to vacate them
and patronize the hotels.
