AN ENJOYABLE TIME.
The Social Given BY the Ladies Of the st.
James Guild an Entire Success.

The rains descended and the temp
est ragged, but in spite of the elements
the Ice cream social given by theladles
OF the Guild at the residence OF Mrs.
G. j. Bach last Thursday afternoon
and evening was n pronounced &C.
cess, and it is safe to say that every
one who attended the affair enjoyed
themselves immensely.
The ladies had procured a large
marquee tent, in which tables had
been laid in readiness for the guests,
when a violent rain and hailstorm
occurred, and the tent, not being well
stretched, allowed the water to leak
through, spelling the table linen and
necessitating the removal OF every
thing into the house.
The ladies were equal To the Occa-
sion, however, and in n short time
guests were being entertained as
though nothing had happened to MAJ
the iestal occasion.
The throngs increased toward even
ing. when the rooms presented n very
gay and animated appearance. The
refreshments were excellent and the
mi In which the ladies OF the
Guild entertained their guests was
beyond praise.
Tie tent, In which n campfire had
been started, was used as n smoking
room by the gentlemen, and during
the evening the band ui the Lewis
town llilarity company played rag
time selections which ranged all the
way from "A Hot Time" to "Hail
Columbia"
The music brought the Indies to the
tent. where the tlickering light oi the
campfire liz up the happy faces and
summer costumes of the guests in II
ann which made the scene n very
picturesque one.
The social was in the nature Oi n
birthday party und every guest had
been furnished with "A small sack in
which they deposited As many PEN
mics as they had seen mmer
Eighty-iive dollars was realized,

State Work Planned for Fergus This Year.

Mr.. Frank \. Spragg. a resident Of
Denton, in this county, and now a
member Of the senior class in the Col
lege OF Agriculture, ut Bozeman, has
been appointed an assistant OF the
Agricultural Experiment Station con-
nected with that Institution and will
spend the summer In the study of the
grasses and forage plants OF Fergus
county and the region adjacent. He
will collect specimens of al the range
grasses and endeavOr to ascertain
their relative abundance and respect
i've values for forage purposes, and
will study theeffect ofclose pasturage
upon the native range and the posi-
billty OF protecting orimproving such
ranges fo- stock-growing purposes.
These questions are OF increasing i'm
portance to the stockmen Of the
state and Mr.. Spragg will endeavor
to turn his education to practical
purpose in the region with which he
IL most familiar.

station will also visit this county
some time during the summer, while
engaged in the investigation OF the
plants poisonous to stock In this re-
gion, awork in which the experiment
station has the cooperation of the
Department OF Agriculture, at Wash
ington. 1t is very probable, too,
that the chemist OF the station. DR..
Tr%0phagen, will be In the county In
his work connected with the study Of
alkali in the agricultural districts,
and 1T IL hoped that the citizens Of the
county will lend every aid in theprose-
cution Of this work.
In addition to these Investigations
undertaken by the experiment sta
ton the State Administrative board
has decided to hold ut Lewistown
one of the first Of a series of Farmers
Institutes provided for by the new
law. aud mt this meeting the newest
phases Of problems Of interest To the
farmer and stockman will he dis

lEWST0NN VS.. GILT EDGE.
Game Stopped BY Rain in Fourth Inning
LeMistoMn, 9; Gilt Edqe, 2.

In spite of the raw wind and driz-
cling rain nearly n hundred base
ball enthusiasts were Mt the grounds
last Sunday to see The Lewistown
and Gilt Edge teams give an exhibit
ton OF the national game. After
playing three innings the rain fell In
torrents and the game was called OFF
In the first half Of the fourth inning,
Gilt Edge having retired two Lewis
town men, the score being 8 to 2in
favor ot the locals. The grounds
were soft and slippery and in no con-
dition Tor fast work. To this and
the lack of practice may be attrib-
uted the slow work of some OF the
players.
The LewistOwn players batted well
and in the first inning Hans Jorgensen
and Smith scored. In the second they
were shut out. lnthe third Smith and
Guy and Howard Gleason crossed the
place and in the fourth Jorgensen,
smith, McGiun aud Daniel each added
one to Lewistown's rapidly increas-
ing total OF runs scored.
Gilt Edge failed To score in the first
two innings. In the third i.eichert
and Martin made the circuit.
Guy Gleason, not being mt home mt
second base. did not play the game ns

four errors. W. ID. Symmes, at first
base, has been unable to practice
during the past ten days, owing to
business which demanded his atten-
ton. His two errors did not figure
in the scoring. ii. Gleason, at third
base, had the only fielding chance
which was accepted, and he demon.

Cincinnati, Ohio.

His honor. Mayor Fleischmann, di- rects me to acknowledge receipt of your communication asking for information in reference to the use of lenders and air brakes upon the street cars in this city.
 The Board of Legislation (City Coun- ciD passed an ordinance about eight years ago requiring that all cars ope- rating within the city limits be equipped with lenders and safety brakes, and they are so equipped today. There have been innunerabe cases where lives have been saved because of the lenders, and while they are not an ab- solute safeguard against fatal accidents, the passage of the ordinance has been fully justified by results.
 "The Mayor further requests me to say that he has always been heartily in favor of the use of lenders, and believes that all street cars should be equipped with them wherever possible. Respect fully "CEAS. J. CHRISTIE,

From an Authority.

'I hasten to reply to your favor of the 9th instant inquiring about street car lenders.
 My observation and experience as well as personal inspection of municipal con ditions extends over nearly the entire country and l have no hesitation in say ing that car lenders should be used be- cause they have given such excellent re- suits. A countless number of lives have been saved by them. Not long ago I saw a little chap of about seven years of age picked up by a car fender in the city of Baltimore and he never suffered a scratch. If there had been no fender on the car his little life would undoubtedly have been crushd out underneath the wheels.
 "The only failures which I have known anything about have been in instances where the street railway company has been allowed to equip it's cars with a makeshift of it's own manufacture. Such lenders have given poor satisfaction in New York, Brooklyn, Rochester, Buffalo and many other cities which 1 could name But in no instance have these lenders been removed except as they were replaced by something better
 You have good reasons for forcing the company to equip it's cars with lenders and if 1t has expressed a willingness to do what is right there should be no hesi- tation about doing so at once
 'The fender which has given the most universal satisfaction on this continent and that of Europe, Is that made by the company whose descriptive circulars ] am sending to your address under sepa- rate cover. Yours very truly,

Talk Over Plans for the Scholastic
 Year.

Meetings of all the teachers in the public schools of the city were held at the High School yesterday. The white teachers met in the morning and the col ored teachers in the afternoon.
 At the meeting of the white teachers an address was made by Dr. Phillips, the superintendent of the city schools. Ills talk was on the attitude of the teacher towards the pupil, and he dwelt on the power and influence the teacher has over the scholar to develop his understanding of law and order, his duty towards so- ciety and illustrated how far tfhs infiu- ence went towards preventing anarchy and disorder.
 The work of the teachers was outlined for the year. The schools will open Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock. New scholars must report at the various schools on Monday morning to be prop erly graded and enrolled

saved by them in our city. Have not heard of single instance where harm has come from their use; therefore, I am now an earnest convert, and shall insist In the future that no car be placed in service without a fender. You can make no mistake by doing the same. "Of course the companies object to them on account of expense which is trifling.
