nj. 81. schol.stie.'s Commencement,

Mount Saint Scholastica was the
scene Of hustling, busy crowd dur
ing last Thursday. Strangers in large
numbers mingled in the throng. The
occasion for this gathering was the
commencement exercises which were
to take place that evening. As an
educational institution Mount Saint
Scholastica enjoys an enviable and
widespread reputation. The greatest
care is used in the handling of pupils
entrusted to the institution, not to
the education only but the social and
moral aspect as well.
During the past school year the
attendance was very large, even to
the taxing Of the schools accommo-
dations. The teachers are selected
with the greatest care for the re-
spective stations to be filled.
The program of exercises was
printed in last weeks RECORD and
needs not to be repeated here. 1t is
sufficient to state that each partici-
pant acquitted herself with honor,
and reflected credit upon her instruc-
tors and the institution.
There were enrolled l26 pupils the
past year. The outlook for next year
is very bright, applications for ad-
mission being already received.
Among the graduates were noticed
the Misses Ryan, Moynahan. Malone,
Pursell, Cronin and Kleinstueck, each
of whom was awarded a gold medal
in addition to her diploma. Cahonites
who received honors were the Misses
Jessie Earle, Bena Riede, Frances

GREAT FUN Fer THE Chill DREN,
Gentry's Dog and Pony Show Enter
tanned Young and Old-Clever
Tricks Of the Animals.

Yesterday every child in town, and
many an adult, who could, escape school
or household duties, lined up on the side
walks to watch the street parade of
Gentry's dog and pony show. And it
was well worth seeing. All the OIL
favorites were there, and dozens of new
ones. The baby elephants and the baby
ponies were greeted with enthusiasm all
along the route. There were many new
features, among them a sacred bull and
new species of pony.
The tent both afternoon and evening
was we'll filled. 1t holds 5000 people. The
circus features, such as lemonade, pop
corn and peanuts, were there.
The most startling features of las.
year have been retained and added to.
The burning Of the Hotel Gentry is made
much more realistic and is most thrill
ing to the juveniles. The clever Snider
family have elaborated their stunt
When they come in on their coach, with
monkey footman and coachman, the
children greet them with shouts of rec
ognition. After dismounting, Papa and
Mamma Snider sit in chairs, waltz and
deport themselves like well-bred hui
mans. Then when they go to leave, the
gorgeous coach is overturned. They are
all rescued and put in the coach. but the
monkey footman discovers the baby
has been left behind, and, grabbing it,
scrambles in.
The monkey acrobats on the re-
volving ladder were also favorites. The
pony act which opens the programme is
| very clever, 60 ponies going through drill
movements. The monkeys that do the
English riding act. jumping hurdles.
etc., are well received. A new act was
| the white horse, Silver, who plays sick
The big baboon, Jack, plays doctor /, il
gives him medicine, but to no avail.
Finally he decides to bleed him, and Sill
Yer RECEIVERS at once. At the close of the
performance the little ones enjoy what
| is to them one Of the best features of
! the show. They are allowed to ride the
| ponies. The ponies seem to enjoy it as
much as the children.
| Many new animals have been added to
the show. The fact that Gentry has four
shows on the road. evGSy one as good
| as the one here, explains the many new
| features. The animals are change6from
! one show to the other to give new fea-
lures each year to each place visited.
| There are some tiny baby ponies. one
| only a week old. Others are two months
old, and they are surrounded by admir-
| ing children all the time. The aggrega-
ton will be in Butte three days. closing
| tomorrow night.

WILL PLAY A RETURN GAME.
Butte and Helena High School Base
Ball Teams to Try Conclu-
sions Saturday.

The Butte High School base ball team
will cross bate with the aggregation OF
spheroid chasers from the Helena High
School at the Athletic grounds Saturday
afternoon in return game. The Helena
boys came off victorious n the game play
ed with the local boys in Helena, Arbor
day, and though the conquered offer no
excuse for their d>feat, they are con-
fident they will be able to redeem them
selves. They promise to maze their re-
venge complete.
Considerable practice has been INDUCED
in by both teams and the Helena boys
claim to be more fit than they were when
they won the Arbor day game. They say
they will again demonstrate that the To-
cal boys are no match for them by again
defeating them.
The local boys on the other hand feel
that they will be better able to play ball
on their home grounds and with their CO.
horts out in force to root for them. They
talk of nothing but victory.

CITY LIGHT DEAL
COUNCIL COMMITTEE ARE PRE-
PARED FOR A HOT DEBATE.
OBJECTS TO 1o.YEAR CONTRACT
Municipal League Will Fight Granting
of Franchise to Butte Electric
Company-Meeting This Evening to
Hear Arguments-Nayor Davey il
Still Laid Up With rheumatism.

There will be warm time in the
council chamber of the city hall this
evening when the members of the light
committee will give their ears to de-
bate between the representatives of the
Municipal league and the Butte Electric
company. 1t is stated that both sides
will be on hand with heavy artillery.
The controversy Is the result of Pc
tition filed with the city council by the
league protesting against the council
signing 1O-year contract with the Butte
Electric company for lighting the city.
In the petition is was alleged that the
prices charged by the company are ex-
Orbitant and far in excess of the rates
charged in cities of the same population
as Butte. This the representatives of
the company deny.
The matter was to have been discussed
last Monday evening, but for various
reasons the league representatives asked
for a postponement until this evening
and their request was granted. The
light committee will hand in it's report
regarding the matter at the council
meeting tomorrow evening.
Mayor Davey is still badly crippled
with rheumatism and unable to leave
his bed. 1t will be impossible for him
to be present at the meeting.

for Mrs. A. c. Newill, chairman of the
Social and Domestic Science Department
of the Woman's club.
Whe the clubs decided it was too great
risk to guarantee the large sum re-
quired, she decided it was, not and went
to work. The outlook is that every seat
in the house wifi be occupied. The af-
ternoon lecture does not begin until Ais
o'clock SO as to allow the school shildren
to attend. Many Of the club women are
selling tickets and they are on sale at
various places. ALI the lectures will be
illustrated by means of a stereoptican
and this adds much to the vividness of
the stori,s told.
Mr.. Thompson will not confine himself
to stories already published but will tell
new ones of the animals he has made
favOrites with the public.

One feared that street fairs as a rule
were not conducive to good morals. The
other believed the city too young ana
feared the attendance would not be large
enough to pay expenses.
While the members of the association
generally favored the proposition as in
dlvidual persons, they hesitated to take
hold of it as an association The motion
OF Charles N. Gosman that the associa-
ton enter into communication with the
HARBOUR company was lost.
Several members were of the opinion
after the meeting was over that the Elks
or some other influential organization
might be induced to take the matter in
hand.
