Col. Colport Surprised.


1t might seem too gigantic an idea for

the evening. Champagne literally

with wines from Sunny Italy and other
foreign lands. The banquet served en-
braced everything good to eat and it
was perfectly served. Toasts, impromtu

George Casey's Stag Party.
One of the gayest affairs ever held in
the city was the reception given in the
Scott block by George Casey to some of
his friends. More would have been pres
ent had the building been larger. The
guests comprised 100 Of Butte's leading
citizens, who all Joined in extending
compliments and congratulations to Mr..
Casey. His popularity. like the value of
the Butte mines, increases with the
years. and his Butte friends We're proud
of an opportunity to do him honor.
In one room on table almost as large
as a town lot. an elaborate lunch was
spread. In another room the liquid re-
freshments were served by four we'll
trained colored athletes, whose endur-
ance was wonderful. A colored quar-
tette. with mandolins, and Logan, with
his wonderful bass. furnished the music.
A Zulu chief, imported especially from
the Transvaal, and armed with club,
acted as doorkeeper and prevented the
guests from getting their hats before
daylight. Speeches and vocal choruses
by guests occupied the time, the chief
event being a duet-"The Shawnee
River''-by E. w. Wilson and Alex J..
Johnston. Altogether the affair was a
great social, musical and dramatic sue
cess. and the opinion was that George
Casey had set the peg a little higher
than ever before in Butte.

Bryants to Leave Butte.
1t seems a very short time since Mr..
apd Mrs. Leo c. Bryant first came to
Butte, but in reality it is nearly year.
They have made hosts of friends. not
only in the best musical circles, but in
society as WE'LL Mr. Bryant is not only
a fine violinist, but finished musician.
Mrs. Bryant is not only an excellent vio-
linist and pianist, but one of the sweet
est singers Butte has ever heard. She
was one of the soloists in the Creation"
After they established their studio in the
futile block they had all they could do
in the way of teaching and playing,
going over to Anaconda one day of the
week. Mr.. Bryant, despite the popular
ity of himself and wife, has received an
offer from Salt Lake which he decided
was too good to refuse. Accordingly he
and his wife leave today for that city,
where he will take charge of the or
chestra of the Grand there. What Is
most decidedly Butte's loss is the great
gain of the city of the tabernacle.

ADVERTISING FOR CHURCHES.

Many foolish. or at any rate singular things, are happening every day in oUr great country. and the newspapers do not neglect their duty ill inc matter of reporting what is peculiar. Most of these things are wholly t"ansitory, being avoided as soon as they are made known. But it may not be so with a little experiment. which Is now being carried on in Ashtabula, o.
 Briefly, the pastor of church there has begun to advertise his religious services in ten-inch display advertise ments. very much as if they were a fresh invoice of oranges, or q patent medicine, or play at the theater. He believes in heavy, black faced type, set ill double column, top of column, next to reading matter: and, judging from two ar three specimens of the adver- tisements thus given. he also believes in using all the language necessary in order to attract attention. The only good side to his method, that We can See. is that he pays the newspapers for the space taken. just like any busi- ness advertiser-not that the newspa- pers do too much for good causes. as the rule, but that what they do of this kind Is sometimes not fully appre- ciated.
 It seems to us very painful that it should be necessary, CT should be thought to be necessary, to attract peo- pie toward the house of God by such methods. This is q levelling age in both directions, up and down; but after all one likes to think of religious wor- ship as something apart from our everyday methods. There is nothing bad about advertising as such, but ev- erything that Is useful and helpful; it is only the combination that is jar ring. Yet this may be very old fashioned feeling. Last year, in the Advent season, there appeared on the bill boards of New York striking col ored posters advertising services to be conducted by ministers of the Catholic Apostolic church. The Salvation Army employed its extraordinary methods for years before the world would ac- knowledge, what is everywhere now admitted. that that organization is q great power for practical good.
 T. may turn out so with display ad- yertising in newspapers for religious purposes. No one can afford to be cock sure about the future; but at my rate we hope that the change. If 1t is bound to come, will come slowly. Hartford CourAnt

BRADY'S FUNNY STORY.

A portion of w. A. Brady's testimony
 at Cincinnati on Saturday relative to boxing is amusing to sporting men.
 His statement that Corbett was whipped at Carson City, not so much because Of the punch he received in the solar plexus, but more because he was over-anxious and had exhausted his vitality by overeating, will prob- ably act as q boomerang. Just after the downfall of "Pompadour James, in Nevada 1t was Brady who declared with vehemence that his man had been both robbed and fouled. sund he even went so far as to say that foul blow could be seen in the phot0e1aphic re- |prpduction of the mill Before the

CURLET WAS DEFEATED.

The much-mooted battle for the featherweight championship of Eng land between Will Curley, who met George Dixon in this country, and Jack Roberts was decided at the Ma tional Sporting club, London, January 2l. According to all accounts of the contest Curley must have gone back great deal for he was defeated in the seventh round. Roberts is prac- tically a newcomer, and his victory over Curley was quite blow to the latter's friends.

battle both Corbett and Brady stated

with emphasis that the former was in
 magnificent physical condition and would make chopping block of Fitz- simmons. Because of this authentic information, Corbett's army of friends bet on his chances to the limit. If Brady really means what he says now 1t goes to show that Corbett has been a greatly overrated pugliist, just as many persons have alleged with per slstency ever since he whipped John l.. Sullivan more than eight years ago.
