ABSENCE OF EXCITEMENT.
The Excitement OF Last Week Nota-
bly, Absent At the Palace.

The Excitement of Last Week NOta-
bly, Absent At the Palace.
London, June 3O.-The notable ex-
citement during the past week out
side buckingham palace at the hours
the bulletins were posted was entire
ly absent Monday morning. The
sanguine impression created by the
doctors reports Saturday and Sun
day was maintained by the salient
phrase in this mornings bulletin,
mo bad symptom of any kind"
Official Statement.
At noon the following official state
ment was given out at the palace:
There is no cause for alarm in
the distress caused by dressing the
wound This occurs at least twice
daily. The wound, which is of con-
siderable depth, is distressed from
the bottom, as it is essential that it
should heal from within outwards.
The dressing causes his majesty con-
siderable pain, which he has borne
with great fortitude. In fact, his
majesty's courage and patience calls
for the greatest admiration. The
king was much benefited by the
change to the couch Sunday, on
which he stayed for a few hours.
The electric fans have proved of
great value in keeping down the tenn
perature of the apartment.
Queen In Constant Attendance.
"The queen is in constant attend
ance in the sick room, but the utmost
quiet is enforced. The king occa-
sionally sees his children, but the in
terviews are of short duration. No
matters of state or business are al
lowed to be submitted to the king,
who is also debarred from reading
his correspondence Neither Doctors
Laldng, Barlow nor Treves have left
the palace since the operation ex-
cept for an occasional hour"
To Correct UnfOunded Stories.
This statement was issued with the
view of correcting the numerous un-
founded stories published regarding
what is supposed to transpire in the
sick room.
The cheerfulness of the public is
apparently fully shared by the mem
bers of the royal family. The prince
of Wales went out riding Monday
morning, and both he and the prin-
cess witnessed from the palace win
dows, with evident interest, march
past of the guards.

COLORADO DROUGHT BROKEN.
COpiOus Rains Have FRIIen-snOw
Fell to the Depth of Eight
Inches.

Denver, Col, June 3O.-The drought,
which threatened to be the most Sc
we're that Colorado has known for
years, has been broken by rain as
general in extent as it was copious in
quantity. Though the storm was in
places accompanied by hail, which did
much damage, this is trivial com
pared with the value of the crops
saved by the rain.
The storm damage in Denver and
vicinity is estimated all the way
from $4,000 to $4,000.
Snow fell to the depth of eight
inches in Leadville and many other
places in the mountains.

evidence in the Hopkins contested

swing until this afternoon, on account
Of the lawyers for the defense making
strenuous effort to have the justices
pass on the admission of certain evil
dencc offered by the contestants.
Newton Burgess testified he was
hired in Billings by Fred Ramsey to

Rosebud county, to remain there for
one month, and to vote the democrat.
ic ticket at the fall election; that he
went there and voted as agreed, and
the day after election he went back to
Billings. He also stated that 10 9th.
ers were hired at the same time and
place and went TO the Ramsey ranch
for the same purpose. There was no
work to do. The men were furnished
with plenty Of whisky and cigars and
had an easy time generally.
George Douglas testified that he
went in the same group with Burgess;
that be was promised and paid $50 a
month. He was to act as sort of a
foreman. His testimony was along
the same line as that of Burgess in
relation to the job being "soft
snap.' He said that he, with the 9TH
ers, quit Immediately after election.

The Kind of Seed that Yields.

Like everything else there are good
seeds and bad seeds. Seeds thai grow
and seeds that don't grow: seeds tn at
yield and seeds that don't yield, and
little thought given now to the selec-
ton of the seed you'll need, will be
found time we'll spent, though realized
much better at the harvest if YOU Sc
lect the world-famed Ferry's Seeds
the kind that always yield. For near.
ly half century Ferry's Seeds have
been known and sown wherever good
crops are grown, until farmer. and
gardener alike, have learned to de-
pend upon their wonderful reli-
able growing and yielding qualities,
year after year, to the exclusion of
all others.
Unfortunately the seed business
seems to afford means for many un-
scrupu|ous people, who aim to blind
the unweary to quality, through little
ness of price and boastful claims: who
in reality have nothing to substantiate
their claims, no reputation at stake,
no past record as proof. |. is better
to pay little more for the seed and
be assured of "a great deal more at
the harvest by sowing Ferry Seeds.
The 1903 Seed Annual which is sent
free, postpaid, will be found unusu-
ally interesting and instructive. Write
for it today. Address, D. Nj. Ferry

AMONG OUR NEIGHBORS.
A Grist Of Items Gathered From Our
Northern Montana Exchanges.

Havre Press: Attorney Booth, OF
Great Falls, while here this week
stated that the briefs of the famous
Havre school census case are in the
courts hands, and that Judge Leslie
Shelby independent: 1t wasn't a
bad Christmas eve in Shelby after all
nobody killed and only about six
pairs of black eyes. 1t used to be so
in Shelby that to celebrate the day
properly man or two had to be
killed outright; now they are only
half killed. Shelby is improving right
along.
Glasgow Review: 1t is reported
that Harry Rutter, Of Hinsd ale, will
be Sheriff Cosner's under sheriff and
Il. l.. billiard, of this city, will re-
ceive the appointment OF jailor. Uu-
der the law governing sixth class
counties, the sheriff of this county is
allowed two deputies besides his under
sheriff.
Chinook Opinion: The town au.
thorities have determined upon their
! course Of action in regard to the wa.
ter question and, in substance, they
have concluded not to bother prospect
ing for water near town, but to go to
the river for the supply, and that work
upon the project is to be started just
as soon as the winter is over.
Malta Enterprises: Jas. Lenoir has
! band of l,SOO lambs on Beaver
creek. He found it necessary to send
for the state veterinary, having lost
about $50 by disease. A deputy in
spected the band, dissected a dozen,
and found the trouble was caused by
tape-worms. Mr.. Lenoir is d ally ex-
pecting a letter Of instruction from the
department.
Glasgow Review: A man by the
| name of Evans, late arrival from
Texas, is losing considerable stock on
the sixth point of the Missouri river.
| 1t appears that he struck Montana af-
ter winter had set in and his stock
| was not in the best of condition.. He
has about 500 head and it is con-
sidered he will be lucky if he pulls
| through half of his herd.

which cannot be equaled by the aver
age man. He worked all day on the
church: in the evening he took an ac-
tive part in the entertainment and the
Christmas tree: took the delayed train
for Cut Bank; tied a couple up in the
holy bonds Of matrimony and ate
breakfast in his own home here.
Havre Plaindealer: Chas. II. Ritz,
Of troop l., became involved in a little
difficulty with Henry Pussy of the
same company in the Buffalo saloon
Sunday night and amputated Pussy's
nose with his teeth. The quarrel
started over a trfling dispute and
Pussy, who is of a malicious disposi.
tion, sailed into his adversary who is
little more than boy and in the
sculle got hold Of his odor indicator
and nipped it off before any one
could interfere. Doctor Irwin dressed
the injuries of the soldier who will
never more sniff the smoke of battle
from afar and Officer White placed
both men under arrest. They were
turned over to the post authorities
Monday.
