The Warm Weather Fiend.
Some men there be who love to make
Life's discomfort complete
They come with a thermometer,
And measure up the heat
You say it's only 50,
And for some solace strive:
They grin again and show you that
It's more than 95.

Elements Decidedly Freakish and

Yf0m Tuesdays Dairy Gazette.
1.-THE predicted snowstorm failed to
materialize, much as it vas desired
by the stockmen, many of whom are
becoming seriously alarmed at the
dry condition of the range and the
increased scarcity of water incident
to the extremely cold weather of the
last few days, which has caused about
all of the water holes to freeze over.
Instead of snow, sleet began to fall
this morning and soon the earth was
covered with a glare of ice, making
pedestrianism almost impossible and
adding to the uneasiness of the men
who have animals on the range.
Later-The above paragraph was
written this morning and exactly fit
ter the situation then prevailing. A
change has occurred, however, in the
few hours that have passed since then.
Rain, good and soaking, followed
the sleet and it in turn gave way to
snow, which began to fall with every
indication of being continuous for the
remainder of the day. At present
writing, 2 p. M, it is still showing and
the ground is covered to'the depth OF
almost two inches.
Coming right on top of the rain
and sleet the snow is not quite as vel
come as it would have been had 1t
not been preceded as it was, but for
,all that the stockmen are feeling
fairly good and see an end to the
drouth that has been causing them
so much uneasiness.

Mr.. Jackson was accompanied by his

VI 1t is said that many Of the ranchers
near Big Timber have closed out their

| Constantly decreasing range Facilities
is given as. the reason, it being found
that flocks large enough to make the
business profitable can no longer be
run. Those who have concluded to
retire from the sheep business are
said to have figured out that much
larger profits can be made from the
number of cattle the remaining land
is capable of sustaining than from
the sheep that can be sustained on it,
beside the labor is less and the ex-
pense is claimed to be also consider
ably smaller.
Judge S. w. Porter of Columbus is
among the visitors in the city today

of friends on two events in his life
calling for observance of the ameni-

county at the recent election, but is
also the fortunate discoverer of a
couple of prospects in Sweet Grass
county that promise exceptionally

lance from the old camp Of Nye and

seat until the board of county com

board to officially determine the re
suits of the late election. These are

The Hon. O. F. Goddard, candidate
of the gold republicans for congress
in 1896, has evidently not been for
gotten for his party loyalty in some
parts of the state. The county com
missioners of Lewis and Clarke coun-

found that two citizens of the city OF
Helena voted for Mr.. Goddard fol
congress. AS Colonel Sanders did
not vote this year it cannot be said
that his was one of the ballots cast fol
the Billings gentleman.

Incident on Private Launch on st. Law
renee Results in Appeal to the
Navy Department.

The flying of an American flag under
meath a British flag on the same flag
staff of naphtha launch on the St.
Lawrence has been called to the atten-
tion of the State Department by Com
mercial Agent John H. Shirley. AT Good
rich, Ont. Mr.. Shirley notified the do
partment that complaint of the incident
had been made to him by an indignant
American citizen. The matter was re
ferred to the Navy Department as TO
the proper method of displaying flags
from the same nagstaff, and in re-
port made yesterday stated that interna-
tional etiquette demanded that when
the flags of two countries are displayed
from the same flagstaff they should be
displayed side by side. As the naphtha
launch was owned by private parties and
the Canadian government had nothing
to do with the display Of the flags, 1t
is not likely that the matter will so
any further.

believe they will be able to met this de-
mand and even make possible their en-
largement.
The Evangelist is seventy-two feet in
length over all. In the front of the
car is a drawing rOom or observation
room. Back OF this comes Mr. Geiger S
office. with desk. extension sofa. and .n
organ. Here the purely business mat
ters will be attended to. A private Sec
retary accompanies the evangelists, who
attends TO all minor details.
Next comes Mr.. Geigcr's private
sleeping room. DR.. Wbarton's sleeping
room and Office follow with similar fur
nishings. in the rear of the car are the
kitchen, refrigerators. and a magnificent
ly furnished dining room
No public meetings are 10 be held in
the car, il being simply he home of the
gospel advocates. No stop of less than

Geiger during their long trips. Bad
hotels and poor accommoda tions on
railway trains are said to have sug-

When the Evangelist leaves Chicago a
campaign will be inaugurated that will
end In the fall of 1904. The East will be
thoroughly campaigned, and then the
party will head for the South and West
Most of the railroads over which the
Evangelist will be hauled have agreed to

work under the name OF the National

pendent, and MIR. Geiger carries not even
the name of an ordained minister The
finances of the car are managed by a

rests on MIR. Geiger. He il is who di-

mental Plan-wadc, wint, and
4 Sumner in Charge.

An order has been prepared by the
war Department and will be pronuI-
gated in the near future rcarrangine
the Philippine Islands into three mill
tary departments, commanded by Cen
erals Wade. Wint, and Sumner. The
whole, which is still to be known as
The Division of the Philippines. will be
under the command of Major General
Davis, who succeeds. General Chafree,
who is to command the Department OF
the East. with headquarters at Gov
crnor:s Island, New York.
The Department Of Luzon is to be
commanded BY Gen. James f. Wade,
and will include all that portion OF the
Philippine Archipelago lying north Of a
line passing through Mindoro Strait
southeasterly to the twelfth parallel of
north latitude. thence alcng that paral-
lei to 124 degrees 10 minutes east OF
Greenwich: thence nor,herly through the
San Bernardino Strait. This includes
the Island of Mastato.
The Department OF Eisayas to be COM
manded by Gen. T. j. Wint, to include
all of the islands south of the Depart
ment of Luzon and east of 121 degrees
i5 minutes east of Greenwich and north
of the ninth parallel of latitude. except
ing the Island CT Mindanao, and all
islands east of the Strait Of Surigao.
Chaffee to Distribute Troops.
The Department OF Mindanao to be
commanded By Brig. Gen. Samuel S.
Sumner, includes all of the remaining
islands of the Philippine Archipelago.
General Chaffee has teen directed to
designate the places for the location of
he several department headquarters.
and to distribute staff officers ana
troops according to the best needs of
the service.
General Chaffee and General Davis
also recommend that four hrigades or
district commands be kept up in tho
Philippine Islands.
The division organization for geo.
graphical distinction has been abandon
cd for some time in the United States,
hut the old form of command of a di-
vision, end departments, is still neces-
sary in the Philippines on account o;
the legal machinery of administration,
especially with reference to the appoint
ment of courts-martial. 1t is thought
proper that this authority should re-
main vested in the general officers who
are serving at a distance from the head
quarters in Manila.
