A King and His Titles.

If, as is said to be not unlikely, some
change is adopted in King Edwards $ title,
it will be the sixteenth time the title has
bene altered. The last time, of course
was in 1877, when Empress OF India" was
added. 1t was the first change for sew
enty-six years; in 1891 George III. ha6
sdropper France out of the list of countries
over which he was king and defender of
the faith. The title has been changed not
fquite once in every half century, since the
AConoueror, but between 110o and 1900 Il
was changed four times. William The
Conqueror called himself "rSing OF tha
English Normans and Cimonantians. -

Ex-sPEAKER REED HERE.

E-Speaker Thomas B. Reed was in this
city today. He came here to take look
at his new offices in the Commercial Trust
Company's building. The once formidable
Gar walked slowly from the ferry. He
wore a soft felt fat, dark suit and white
waistcoat. He carried a bundle of news
papers in his right hand, which he swung
up and down, a habit probably occasioned
by his liberal use of the gayel while in
the House of Representatives.

DR. 4, Butler the new smallpox spec

north of the city. commonly designated

But one patient spent Christmas in the

George Taylor, the young man who
came 70 Red Lodge four weeks ago to
attend school and who broke out with
the loathsome disease shortly after his
arrival here, is the remaining patient.
He has had one Of the hardest attacks
8of the disease thus far coming to the
notice OF the county authorities.
There are four cases of smallpox at
Bridger, which, with the one here and
one at Chance, constitutes the present
extent Of the disease in the county.

FORGOT TO PAY THE RENT.
Manager Grandstrom Of the Opera House Sends
Collector After Rotten Show Company.

The Frank Stock company, which held
the boards in the opera house the first
of last week left some unpaid
bills. as we'll as reputation for
rottenness, back Of them. At any rate,
when Manager Grandstrom Of the opera
house learned that the troupe had
left the city he was painfully aware that
there was little bill Of $50 for hall rent
which, in their endeavor to get away
from an unappreciative community, the
show people had evidently forgotten to
liquidate. The account was turned over
to Attorney John L. Price for collection.
and the latter boarded an extra to Bill
lings Thursday night, arriving there at
an early hour the following morning.
He found the manager of the show in a
room at the Driscol hotel, and proceed
edlto awaken the august parsonage and
acuuaint him with his mission. The man
ager pleaded the poverty act, but finally
gave the collector his trunk checks as
security until daylight, when he raised
enough money to pay the bill and avoid
ed the inconvenience of being thrown into
jail on a charge Of attempting to de-
fraud creditors.

HE HAD 10 ASSETS.
William c. Baker, Formerly Joliet Saloon
man, Is Indeed Bankrupt.

OF the several men who have passed
through Referee Frith's court since the
present bankruptcy laws went into effect
very few have made a more complete
failure of business they we're engaged ia
than did William q. Baker, late 4 saloon
keeper of Joliet, says the Billings
Gazette.
The first meeting of Bakers creditors
was held il this eity yesterday and N
proved d surprise TO them. Baker took
advantage Of the law to take the paup-
er's oath and deposed that he had abso-
lutely nothing not exempt and Was un-
able to pay any costs, The only assets
he turned IN were lot of old liquor ac-
counts, amounting In All to $50. Still
the forms Of the law had to be observed
and the creditors elected G. II. Oliver Of
Joliet as trustee and he was instructed
to make every possible effort to collect
ut least some of the accounts, although
bash he and the creditors realized that
it would prove highly improbable that
he would succeed. Upon his success in
that direction depends the payment ct
the costs in the action. as nothing is con
tanned in the estate that could be con.
verted into cash enough to pay the ref
cree, trustee or others who may have
bills against the estate in connection
with the proceedings
When Baker made up his mind to
petition the court he seems to have had
some assets that were convertible, but
these were covered by a mortgage and
two or three days before filing his peti-
tion the mortgages foreclosed. Then
on top Of this some other creditors in
stituted attachment proceedings and are
now said to be endeavoring to have the
mortgage set aside As the mortgages
are in possession and their claim is said
to be valid and legal it is hard to figure
where the others will come in for any
benefits.

Beginning With New Year All Wyoming

DAILY TRAIN FOR CODY
Departmental Orders Received to Cease
Routing Big Horn County Mail
BY Stage,

| i he various railway mail clerks run
ming in and out Of Billings have received
departmental instructions to route all
mail for Cody, Thermopolis, Wise. Four
bear and Basin City points direct to
Cody over the new Burlington branch
out of Toluca. This order is to 90 into
effect Jan. l, on which date the Burling
ton will supercede it's mixed train on
the branch with daily passenger ser
vice and, IN connection Herewith, oper
ate triweekly freight train.
| Under this arrangement all Wyoming
mail originating in the Basin country
addressed to Red Lodge, will come BY
way Of Cody, Toluca and Billings, in
stead of by stage while all mail original
ing in this city, destined for the Basin
country, will 60 by train to Billings, ia
stead Of by stage to Cody. reaching its
destination by this route in about the
same time that it would il routed over
the stage line.
After the first Of the Year, therefore,
patrons Of the Red Lodge postottice will
receive their Big Horn county mail the
same way and at the same time that
they now receive their eastern ana vest
ern mail. The existing stage communi-
cation between this city and Meeteetse,
however, will be continued for the pres
ent. but 1T is evidently The intention Of
the department soon to do away with
that portion of the Red Lodge Meeteetse
star route between Clark and Cody
This conclusion is reached by virtue of
the fact that proposals for carrying the
mail between Cody and Meetcetse are
now being asked for. This contract is
to include the depositing Of mail in
boxes along the route, something after
the fashion of the rural free delivery
system now being extended throughout
the country

Arctic NIGHT

lcebergs dotted the blue surface OF
the sound, and far into the haze OF
Baffin bay we could see them drifting
southwark. The air was as still and
clear as on a quiet, moonlit winter
night at home, and the level sun rays
streamed through in glory of Italian
pink. Enfolding all, as was the "peace
that passeth knowledge" like the Sc
renity of a soul that has won, through
toll and storm, the strength and poise
of enduring calm. It was well-nigh
overwhelming. In ill-disguised neces-
sity we turned from the vision to the
sight Of heaps of crumpled dead birds
in the boat, and talked OF shooting,
and agreed that nowhere in the world
was there promise of better sport than
here. Then silence fell again. In spite
OF us, our eyes were drawn outward;
and through all the peaceful beauty
we felt once more the poignancy of les
awful purity. He would be a man OF
spotless soul indeed and of assured
faith who, seeing the stainless lowell
ness of the scene, would feel no pang.
Not ones self only, but ones world

WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY.

Today as we go to press the city is
quiet, business almost suspended.
public offices are closed, banks and
stores and factories closed. All is 81
lent save the hum of the street cars
and the whistle. of the cold wind. 1t
is George Washington's birthday. 1t
has been made legal holiday by
nearly all the states of the union. In
fact it is more generally observed
than any other day in America, save
Christmas. Washington stands for
all that the United States is today,
the pioneer, the moulder, the founder
and the first president of the best
republic among the nations. The life
and struggle of Washington is inter-
woven i'll the history formation and
development of America so that we
need not reproduce it, for each school
boy and girl sing his praises from
ocean to ocean and the multitude of
the islands are taking it up. Let us
ever honor and revier the name of
that master of humanity, and as the
ages come we will cherish and honor
him more and more

Slate pencils were formerly all cut
from slate just as it is dug from the
earth. Pencils so made were objected
to on account of the grit which they
contained. To overcome this difficulty
a scientific man devised an ingeniuos
process by which the slate is ground
to a very fine powder, all grit and for
eign substances removed, and the pow
der bolted through silk much in the
same manner as flour is bolted. The
powder is then made into dough and
this dough is subjected to heavy hy
draulic pressure, which presses the
pencils out in the required shape and
diameter, but in lengths of about
three feet. While yet soft the pencils
are cut into the desired lengths and
set out to dry in the open air. After
they are thoroughly dry the pencils
are placed in steam baking kilns,
where they receive the proper temper.
