For refusing to hold up his hands
when ordered to do so by a couple of
whitemen, Yee Ii is occupying a bed
in st. Vincent's hospital with a bull.

Ii, who is an associate editor Of a
laundry, was returning to- his home
on the south side last night about
1880 o'clock. When in rear of the
shooting gallery in Montana avenue.
lear the corner of Twenty-sixth street,
he was confronted by two men who or
dered him to stop and throw up his
hands. Instead of complying with the
demand he began ! yell an call for
help, at the same time putting speed
into his legs. AS he was sprinting in
the direction Of his shanty, a short
distance away, n Of the men opened
fire on him and shot twice. Only one
of the shots took effect and Ii fell.
Seeing that they had hit him, his as
sailants ran away and were out of
sight before anybody could appear to
render assistance.
The yells of Ii and the shots were
heard by several other Cinnamon in
a house on the opposite side of the
alley and they fastened to his aid.
Ii was found on the ground, apparent
lyina dying condition, and was remov-
ed by his friends to the Noodle res
taurant, in Twenty-sixth street.
Chief Calhoun was notified and
went to the place for the purpose of
learning something that might be or
use in effecting the arrest of the high
waymen. The wounded Chinaman
could tell him rothing, except that a
couple of "Melican man shoot him,
after they had told him to stop. The
others questioned were equally as ig-
norant and could only say they had
heard Lis shouts and the shots fired
by his would-be murderers.
DR.. Lindsay was called and under
his directions the injured man was
removed to the hospital. This morn
ing the doctor succeeded in locating
the bullet, which had entered the
back a short distance below the right
shoulder and then ranged outward,
lodging under the right nipple. The
bullet was taken out and the doctor
is of the opinion that Lii has a fair
chance OF recovery.
Further effort vas made by Chief
Calhoun and members of the police
force today to get more information
concerning the affair, but without sue.

had seen the men or the shooting.
The proprietor of the Noodle restau.
rant said that the highwaymen stood
in a little frame clubhouse waiting for
their victim and as he passed they
slipped out and commanded him to
stop. He also said something about
another Chinaman having been stop
ped by a couple of men, presumably
the same ones, in the same place,
but that he had escaped.

WOMAN suFFRAGIsT ADVOCATES
CAMPAIGNING IN MONTANA.
LEADERS ON THE GROUND
Purpose to Educate Lords Of creAtiof
to Their Way Of ~
Thinking.
From Fridays Daily Gazette.

From Fridays Daily Gazette.
The advocates of universal suffrage
are determined to add Montana to
the column of states where women
have the right to vote the same as
the lords of creation, not only in a
limited way, but at all elections, re-
CARELESS of the purposes for which
they are held.
Already. it may be said, the cam
paign is on and will be conducted with
ever increasing earnestness as the
time for the fall election approaches.
Miss Laura A. Gregg, one of the ma
tional organizers of the National
American Woman's Suffrage associa-
tion, arrived in the state a few days
ago as the advance of the other work.
ers it is proposed to send here. She
went direct to Butte with a view to
looking over the field and outlining
the plans to be pursued in the work
at hand. In an interview she said
that it was the purpose of the asso-
citation to inaugurate a campaign of
education Immediately. She said that
it depended entirely upon the out
look what decision will be arrived at
SO far as the political parties are con-
cerned this fall. A press bureau would
be started at once, either at Helena
or Butte as the first step in the di-
rection OF educating the people to
the same way of thinking as the suf-
fragists.
In addition to Miss Gregg, Miss
Gail Laughlin of New York is also in
the state and is making a tour of the
different cities for the purpose of
getting acquainted with the leading
workers in the cause she represents.
! Whether because of the greater gal
lantry of the other sex or whether be-
cause of more liberal m%indedness is
not known, but the fact exists, never
theless, that the equal ~suffragists
have found the west an easier field
than the east. In Utah, Wyoming,
Idaho and Colorado the women have
full suffrage and vote for all officers,
including presidential electors. In a
limited way equal suffrage prevails
in Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, H.
linois, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachu-
sets, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana,
Nebraska, New Hampshire. New Jer-
co, Nor, V~~1x Nyor&h no1>1%or n11o
homa, Ohio, Oregon. South Dakota,
Texas, Vermont, Washington and
Wisconsin. In a majority of these
states however, women have the right
to vote only on questions involving
taxation or the election of school Of
ficers.
It is said that Mrs. c. Chapman
Gait. president of the national asso-
citation, is to visit Montana shortly
and add her influence and work to
the steps now making in the direction
of transforming the state into ore
of those where the difference of sex
Is not permitted to cut a figure in the
matter of voting. 1t is YER evident
that the suffragists are very much in
earnest and the man who has an
itching for Office this fall may as we'll
prepare himself for what is to come,
as it is the candidate and prospective
candidate who are among the ones
with whom the women labor the hard
est.

The king has brought up his chill
dren in the utmost simplicity, and
it is with his assent that the Duke
and Duchess of Cornwall and York
allow their little ones to make
friends among the children of mem
beers of the aristocraey. A tea
party in the nurseries Of York
House is common event, and the
little princes and princess squabble
and fight with future dukes and
marquises over picture books and
tin soldiers.
One little scion of nobility, whom
it pleased his mother to dress in the
embroideries and laces of a baby
until he was nearly four years old,
one day got a rare drubbing from
little Prince Edward, who, on being
introduced to his befrilled and be-
ribboned small guest, promptly
knocked him down.-Home Notes.

iouBErs QUEER TROUSERS.

President Lonbet has Eve Prince
Albert coats two for summer, two
for winter and one extra for grand
occasions. This last one has been
worn only three times at the open
ing of the exposition of 1900, at the
reception Of the king Of Sweden and
at tie garden party in honor of the
shah OF Persia. This @gala" coat
differs from the others in that it
has heavy silk lining and lapels. NJ.
Loubet invariably wears q plain,
black satin tie--not tied by hand,
but sewed together and attached
With q clasp. II. Loubet used
formerly to wear false cuffs, but one
day while making sudden gesture
The right hand cuff slipped Of and
rolled on the floor. This happened
at the Luxembourg palace, when M.
L0ubet was president of the senate
Since then II. Loubet's shirts have
been made with permanently attach
ed wristbands.
III. Loubet's trousers are very pc
culiar. They are black or gray in
color, but their cut Is Of the old
fashioned pattern, with the top Of
the trousers coming up O. high as
the armpits. NJ. Loubet has always
worn trousers Of this quaint type,
and is so accustomed to them that
he has an inveterate dislike for
evening clothes, which, with low
cut, open waistcoat, render the arm
pit trousers impossible. The presi-
dents wardrobe is, however, pro-
vided with several pairs Of evening
trousers suitable for low cut, open
waistcoats.--Argonant.

Anarchy In France.

An item of news from Paris gives
indications of serious conditions in
France. A party Of soldiers, re-
serves, openly cheered anarchy and
shouted for social revolution. When
the police attempted to quell the
disorder, they were charged upon
by the soldiers and overcome. Paris
lives in constans dread of recur-
renee Of the commune. 1t is small
wonder. When the red chapter oi
history was written by the com
mune, the army was not so possess
ed offanarchistic doctrine as at pres
emit. The commune sprang mainly
from obscure streets and byways,
but at present anarchy stalks OPEN
ly upon the boulevards of the gay
capital, finds Judgment in the arse
mails and expression in the military
barraeks.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

A remarkable little building
stands on the lawn Of DIR. Naaman
II. Keyser's house on Church lane,
Germantown. It was erected by
DR.. Keyser himself when a boy,
some addition or alteration being
made to it each year during his va
cation.
The architecture of the quaint
little building is old English. The
lower part is wooden, and the mp
per part has the effect of thing, the
tiles being made out ofiold tin cans.
The youthful architect persuaded
the boys of the neighborhood to col
lect cans from the various dumps,
1000 of them being used on the
building. The bottoms of the cans
blocked over wood formed circular
tiles, with which the roof is covered,
and the remainder of the tin, being
beaten out fiat and also blocked,
made square tiles for the upper part
OF the walls.-Philadelphia Record.

Minister WI says that as far as
marriage is concerned the American
girl is too particular. He does not
seem to realize that the fact stated
keeps up the standard of the Ameri-
can man. He judges from the
oriental point of view. The Chi
nese girl meekly takes what she can
get. The independent American
girl takes only what she wants, and
that stimulates the American man
to enter. iTr mass,.sah.a,, AA~nA4isi~--

Three Little Fairies That Met I'm tha

Three Little Fairies That Met IN tlss
carden One Morning.
Three little fairies met one morn
ing IN D garden Of pfnks. Their
names were Dewdrop, Misty and
Sunbeam. Funny little fairies they
were too. Why, Dewdrop was 80
round, with his legs and arms all
doubled up beside him, that ] won
der how he could have perched
where he did at all, but when Misty
came along she found the little fell
Low sitting on the fringed flower
leaf of q pink, SO he must have got
there in some way in the morning,
for he wasn't in the garden the
night before. Dewdrop looked lone
some until Misty came, then he
Frightened up till even his shiny
coat cooked like silver. Misty
seemed Just ready TO smile at him,
and the more she looked that way
the brighter he became.
Suddenly they both laughed.
Dewdrop was so pleased that his
coat flashed out in colors of red,
blue, green and yellow, for just then
Sunbeam came into the garden,
happy and singing, like the robin
and the mocking bird, all at once.
"Good morning, Dewdrop," and
"Good morning, Misty" she said.
'Don't you want to warm your cold
toes this norning?"
Misty began to fly around as
much as to say she could keep her
toes warm herself. Fat little Dew
drop. hooked Ger the great beds OF
pinks, shaking himself and smiling,
but saying nothing.
In those days the sweet pinks we
have in our gardens had no more
smell to them than a garden of pam
sizes have now, SO these three fairies
could Only look over the pretty
posies and enjoy their color.
BY and by Misty began to be thin
ner and thinner. Little chubby
Dewdrep began to look very queer
indeed. His round body chung so
close to the pink leaf that it was no
longer round. The two fairies
were becoming unhappy, knowing
that they must soon leave. IA
Won't you please 20 away, Sun
beam?" they asked. "You are dry
ing US all up"
81 can't 60 now" gayly smiled
Sunbeam, for she never can look un-
happy, but has to look glad in the
garden until night. ''But as the
other fairies say, you must go away.
Please come to see me again tomor-
row morning, little friends"
Then Sunbeam danced over the
garden. The fairies in the air
came and took away DGwdrop and
Misty SO they might prepare for
their next visit.
"How viii please them when
they come again." said Sunbeam,
looking over the pink blossoms.
'sThen they win have happier time
while they are allowed to stay"
So the smiling fairy kissed each
pretty flower and each pink became
scented with sweet perfume, and
now when Dewdrop and Misty come
into the garden they are greeted
with the fresh, sweet odor of the
pinks as you smell them in your
mothers flower bed every summer.
