FAMOUS PACKS OF CARDS.
Jacks That Nepre-enfed the Most
Famous Diplomats of
Europe.

A pack of cards was recently sold In
a London staiioner's for 5000. II was

plate card games called "teroochi di
Montagna," engraved during the fif

Another pack Of cards recently sold
az Paris for l,CO0 francs.
Each Of the cards in this pack is a
masterpiece Of the engrayer's art, and
all the figures in the game were his

hearts, for instance, represented Queen
ALne, the king Of hearts being her hus-
band, Prince George OF Denmark. The
queen Of diamonds was Queen Anne

FIGURES DO NOT AGREE.

Mr.. Stull said that the value of the
territory involved in the bill had sud
denly become vastly increased; that
before the ball was proposed it was
considered to be worth about $50, 600,
yet the members opposing the bill
had since discovered that 1t was
worth $50O,0O0. He referred to the
statement ui Mr.. Hedges with refer
ence to the building of bridges over
the Musselshell river and said that
the inference drawn from Mr.. Hedges
remarks was not correct; that Fer
gus county had borne about $1,000 Of
the expense, while the remainder had
been borne by Yellowstone county.
81 challenge the statement said
Mr.. Hedges.
"We are 600 far away from the
records to be able to prove at this
time who il correct" said Mr.. Stull,
but believe that II we had the rec
ords | could authenticate the state
ment."
Mr.. Stull closed with the assertion
that one OF the main reasons the peo-
pie Of the district had in wanting to
be annexed to Yellowstone county
was that they had practically no
school facilities, and that in order To
give their children the rudiments OF
an English education they were
Obliged to hire private teachers,
which they hoped would not he the
case II they were annexed to Yellow
stone county.
The vote on the motion was over
whelmingly In favor OF reporting
against the bill, and when the COM
mittee arose the bill was finally dis.
posed Of by the adoption Of the re-
port.

past six years." was Mr.. Stull's an
swer.
81 thank the gentleman and deny
the assertion" said Mr.. Hedges.
II should like TO ask for informa-
tion which pays the higher rate OF
taxes, Yellowstone or Fergus?" put in
Mr.. MacGlnnis.
81 shall take great pleasure In an
swering that question:" said Mr..
Hedges.
1.-THE tax levy OF Yellowst tone coun-
ty is two mills higher than in Fergus
county, and that Is another very good
argument in favor of my position"
Mr.. Hedges concluded by making
the pointed remark that, inusmuch
as the member from Yellowstone
county was not u taxpayer, he could
understand why he was not greatly
interested in the latter phase Of the
uucsllbIi uub luhN ~ hN l'hih a. NHouH-
and dollars taxes hc thought he
would be interested in not having
them made any higher.
MIR. KILGALLON'S SMILE.
Mr.. Kilgallon was next to take the
floor.
"When the bill was in committee"
said he, 81 asked why 1t was that the
lines of the district proposed to be
annexed to Yellowstone county were
SO drawn as To leave out of the dis
trict the member from Fergus lmean-
Ing Mr.. Hedges), when, according to
the map, II any change was to he
made il seemed reasonable that he
should have been included. | was
told that il was done because they
did not want him against the bill,
but see heis against it just the same.
1t struck me from what saw Of the
gentleman from Yellowstone (Stull)
at that time that he must be from
Helena; he appeared To be SO hog
gish." The members laughed.
Mr.. Stull took the floor to close the
debate.
81 disclaim any relation to the Hell
ena hog" said he in the beginning,
creating another laugh. He then
spoke with much feeling relative to
the closing remark OF Mr.. Hedges.

THE BIG BADGER FAIR.
Expectations Fooled by the Elements
But a Success Nevertheless.

The big Badger Fair held at Platte
vile last week received a dncking
similar to that dished up to the
Grant county fair, but surpassed the
anticipations OF everyone outside OF
Platteville in the list of attractions,
number of entries il all departments,
live stock exhibits. etc. To make a
long story short it was the best fair
held in this section for a long term
OF years and a credit to its promoters
as well as'the city in which it was held.
The new buildings are models in
the purpose for which they were con-
structed, being large and commo-
dious and denote the expenditure OF a
large sum of money in their complete
ness. From floor to ceiling each was
filled with something of an exhibit
that attracted the eye and to see all
one should have taken week. The
live stock pens were filled to
overlooking and competition for every
premium was closely contested. The
rain interfered greatly with the races
but they were pulled off according tC
program. The attendance on Wednes.
day was 1900; on Thursday $500
Friday 5000 and on Saturday 5000
With good weather these figures
would have been doubled. The man.
agement spared no pains in providing
comfort as well as entertainment foI
the crowds on each day and is deserv-
ing of credit along this line.
The fair as a whole was not a sue.
cess financially, on account of the
weather, but it set the pace and will
prove an incentive to other fairs in
getting out OF the old ruts and serv-
ing up to the people something more
to their liking, as wei: as demonstrat.
ing to all that lit is long pull and q
strong pull, and a pull all together
that brings about success in such
public enterprises as this.
