\ Chicago special says There is great
demand this spring for driving horses,
especially for what are termed as high
steppers." Fancy prices are being paid
for such animals. The day will never
come when the automobile will take
the place of finely matched span OF
rOadsters. There is sensation and
thrill in holding the lines over a swift
and spirited team that is entirely alb,
sent in guiding a mobile. Good horse,
will never be side-traclsed by mans in
penuity.

Doctors, Druggists and Musicians To
Have Grand Mixup.
There have been all kinds of warm
ball games in Kalispell this season,
but the one to be played Wednesday
night promises to make the previous
games look like poor imitation Of
thirty cents.
The druggists and doctors and the
Kalispell Band and Orchestra will
cross bats that night in an alleged
game of ball that promises lots of
sport for the audience if not for the
players. The druggists claim that the
band boys are full of wind and that
they are so used to footing their own
horns that they think they can play
ball. While the band boys are not
saying much they say that the drug
gists will be glad to take the ball in
capsules before the game is ended. At
any rate it will be great time for the
rooters, who will no doubt be out in
force.
