The Columbins. Dance

No one anticipated otherwise than that
the grand ball of the Columbine band
would be'one OF the brightest and best
attended events OF the social season.
You can nearly always set it down 10
black that the young ladies will have a
splendid crowd for any event which is to
assist the band to make of itself better
musical org anization.
1t was little late when the concert
was rendered by the ladies'. nevertheless
this was thoroughly enjoyed, and gave
evidence that the young ladies we're be-
coming more proficient band instrument
alsts every day.
A very large crowd was present and
stayed until the closing dance, the
weather outside being SO cool and lnvit-
ing it acted as a stimulant to attract
many to the hall.
All arrangements we're OF the very best
and there can be not the least criticism
whatever.
The ladies netted a very handsome
sum for their effort.
Much credit is due Mrs. J. S. Carna
han for the manner 10 whicu she rustled
to sell tickets. Through her personal
efforts over one hundred tickets sold.

said to Sentinel reporter this morning
that it was ready and waiting just as

There should be no hesitancy on the
part OF the people owning land under
this ditch to come forward, 40 that work
can be commenced within a period OF
three months. which Mr.. Smith says
will DO done il work Is active.
Some overlook the fact that beside the
great canal scheme, the scheme for q
power plant, furnishing cheap transpor-
tation and cheap Illuminating power, is
OF as much consideration as the building
OF the ditch With. such a great work
started in the valley this year, there
would be given an impetus to trade,

Printing Done Hero For England.

According to a correspondent, rep
resentative Of provincial printing
firm called on q London firm which
distributed circulars by the million.
He was asked to quote for a circular
from which the printers name had
been removed. An estimate was pre-
pared on the basis Of a small turnover
profit, which, considering that the
works were situated in rural district
forty miles from London, on q rental
which, in the city, would not pay the
ground rent, was much below what
would be possible for London house.
Indeed, the representative was conf
dent Of obtaining an order, but was
thoroughly nonplussed when told the
price quoted was considerably above
that now paid. The firms printing
was done in the United States, tn, or
ders being given in such quantities as
to insure the lowest freight charges.
and after adding the latter, including
delivery to the door, the cost turned
out to be considerably below that Of
the lowest estimate yet received from
any British tirm.-London News.

How to Catch tho Polar Bear.

listened attentively the other night
to a gentleman who gave me great
deal of valuable information concern
ing these interesting regions. He
knew I was a tenderfoot and news
paper reporter, and felt at liberty
therefore to talk freely, so got lot
of yarns about polar bears and wal
ruses and other creatures, large and
small, which are not related in natural
histories. I believe it was one Of the
advisers Of Alice in Wonderland who
suggested that the best way to catch
a rabbit Is to get behind stump and
make a noise like a carrot, and I
learned with great satisfaction that
the easiest way to catch a polar bear
Is to hide behind an iceberg and make
q noise like the aurora borealis. Polar
bears are very tame, and, like news
paper reporters and some other peo-
pie, are gifted with inquiring minds.

Horses Vs. Passes.

A railway director, who can take
joke as well as he can give one, is the
good-natured subject Of the following
story:
One Of the employees Of the road
made application 70 him for a pass, in
order that lie might go home to visit
his family.
"You are in our employ?" asked the
director.
Eyes, sir"
"And you receive your pay regular
ly?"
II do"
"Well, let US suppose that you were
working for a farmer. Would you ex
pect your employer to take out his
horses every Saturday night and drive
you homer"
mo, SIR" answered the man, with
out q moments hesitation. II should
hardly expect him to do that; but II
the farmer had his horses out and
was going my way, I should thinh
he was pretty mean man if he re
fused to give me lift"
And the more the director thought
Of it, the more it seemed to him tha
his question had been very satisfactor

Montana Now Said to Be Sliding.


Is Montana creeping into Idaho and
Wyoming? There is some evidence on
the affirmative side of the question,
but not enough to cause alarm in any
of the three States. Still, for several
years it has been known that there is
some trouble with Montana's founda-
tions, which are slipping, and leaving
evidence of the fact on the surface of
the ground.
Railway companies have found quite
plain and strange twists in the align
ment Of their roads, and civil engin-
GERS have found "bench marks" chang
ing their elevations in confusing
manner. Quite recently these reason
ably suspected movements have be-
come apparent, and left large cracks
in the earth at several points in the
city of Butte, extending for number
Of feet, and being in extreme cases
twelve inches wide. The effect Of this
is not only to throw railways out Of
line, but to cause much more serious
damage to gas pipes and water mains.
Biologists say that nothing serious
is threatened, and that parts Of Mon
tana are only doing in a more marked
manner what is going on all over our
restless world.

The May Manton original. from which
the large drawing was made, is Of

to which the garment is to be put.

ing when it is to become lounging

flupnels and the like are better when
1t is to serve rs bath robe.
The yoke. cut without seam, fits
smoothly across the shoulders, but the
main portion is arranged In gathers

Experimentinc on Animal Minds.

One OF the easiest "obstacle" prob.
lens is that OF drawing some object
which the animal wishes for through
q set of bars or wires. This is coin
mon difficulty in the daily life of cap
tive animals, and one IN which 1t
would be quite easy to note their re-
spective shifts and devices. The cley-
crest mode Of coping with difficulty
somewhat Of this nature now exhibit
ed by any animal in London is the
way in which the large African ele-
phant at the Zoo restores to his would
be entertainers all the biscuits, whole
or broken, which strike the bars and
fall alike out Of his reach and theirs
in the space between the barrier and
his cage. He points his trunk straight
at the biscuits and blows. them hard
along the floor to the feet of the per-
sons who have thrown them. He clear
ly knows what he is doing, because if
the biscuit does not travel well he
gives it q harder blow.-The Spectator.

The conventional parlor decorative

fas quaint straightforward chairs, ta-

feet, and cabinets with traceried glass
doors are en- regle with the upholstery
of fowered tapestry.
The correct living room scheme seeks
much bolder effects. Golden bronze
burlap covers the wall to the bric-a-
brac shelf with paneled green ceiling
above. Furniture Of very dark wealth
cred or Flemish oak and much brass
in the ornaments, lamps, hangings,

for such room.
