James Neil in becoming enraged at
fancied indignities during his initiation
nito Spokane lodge Of Elks. last Satur-
day afternoon, and his withdraw wal from
the lodge room before the completion of
the ceremonies, Is looked upon In this
city as unprecedented effrontery.
When shown Neills letter tonight, Ex-
allied Ruler DIR. Sweat said:
"A man with such sensitive dignity
should leave 1t at home. Mr.. Neill lost
one of the most beautiful lessons In his
life, and the low buffoonery referred
to by him was but the stepping stone
to one of the most elevating obligations
known to lodgemen.
"If Mr.. Neill thought to advertise his
play by this insult to Llkdom, he will
find that he has made serious mis-

Kalispell Feb. Silks here are dis
gusted over the Neill incident.
Judge Smith, exalted ruler, says that
evidently some friends of Mr.. Neill
sought to have some fun with him in the
ante-room. He says that he Is a gentle
man, possessed of the finer sensibilities,
but such gentlemen have generally a
better idea of the fitness of things than
to rush into print to tell the greatness
of themselves and try to disparage such
an order as the Elks.
Elkdom is above and beyond the COM
prehension or appreciation of such per-
sons as Mr.. Neill, Judge Smith says.

They say Mr.. Neill showed poor judg-

which he did, and that showed bad taste
In issuing his open letter instead of
Withdrawing like gentleman.

A RESTORATION BEAU.

Daily Programme of n Dandy In
England During Charles Time.
The history Of an ordinary day Of q
restoration beau was something like
This: From about 10 till y he received
visitors in his sleeping chamber, where
he lay in state, with his periwig, thick
ly powdered, lying beside him on the
coverlet. Near at hand, on his dress
ing table, the curious visitor might
have noticed some little Volumes of
Rmatory verse, canister of Lisbon or
Spanish snu& a smelling bottle and
perhaps few fashionable trinkets.
AS soon as he deemed proper the
beau arose and with incredible diff
Guilty proceeded to put on all his
charms, to perfume his garments, to
soak his hands in washes for the sake
Of producing whiteness and delicacy,
to tinge his cheeks with carminative
in order to give them that gentle
blush which nature had denied them,
to arrange a number Of patches upon
his face SO as to produce the effect of
fn6les and dimples, to dip his pocket
handkerchief in rosewater and to pow
der his linen so as to Danish from it
the smell Of soap, to consume quarter
of an hour in the attempt to fasten
his cravat, so long again in the en-
deavor to adjust his wig and to cock
his hat, as long again in the contem-
plation of his charms in the looking
glass and as long again in the practice
Of such smiles as would display to the
best advantage the ivory wilderness of
his teeth-these were the processes
through which he who desired to fig.
ure as q beau of the first magnitude
was compelled in that age to pass.
The character of the beau, so far as
his outward and personal appearance
was concerned, was now complete, and
as in those days fashionable gentlemen
used their legs to much less extent
than they do now our imaginary beau
would have directed his valet to order
a sedan chair without delay. Into
this he stepped and was borne to the
fashionable haunf-fo the mall in st.
James park OF perhaps to the more
ceremonious parade in Hyde park
where, like butterfly he delighted to
flutter in the train of some jilting
beauty, who gloried in nothing so
much as IAN eQuipage Of fools" and
who was perfectly willing for the
nonce to furnish him with an excuse
for toasting her in tavern at night

We regret to see so much indit-
ference as to the two propositions
to secure window glass factories
here. We need the plants badly.
We have been seeking for years for
such propositions as we now have
before us. Many men have said
repeatedly that If we could get
sucn propositions as we now have
that the stock would be subscribed
for promptly, and yet, when these
men are asked to subscribe they
either put down very small sum
or do nothing. The matter IS
dragging along In very ursatis'
factory manner. One or two men
only seem to be working the matter
up and these are men who have no
particular thing at stake, We re-
qret that this Is true but 1t IS so.
We hope some of our business
men will at once take hold OF this
matter and close 1t up, either that
or many business houses will close.
We can have a good manufacturing
city here If all work but If the peo'
pie who are vitality interested In
the building up of our city on
permanent basis, persist In doing
almost doing nothing, they will find
out before very long that Its her
culean task to resurrect a dead
city. Let the matter be attended
too promptly and do not let one or
two men do all the work.

Be that as 1t may, these facts re-

was Pat Gallighan's tour. Pat
was a man who never borrowed
trouble on account of names. He
merely referred to his caller In SUBJ

The entertainment on this occasion
took the form of cards with a bench
for a card table. The "bloSe" oc-
cupying a seat nearest the screw
offered to change places with Gal
lighan that he might give 1t a kick

with playful oath and the remark:

turn the rope in deep holes, give It
screw and 1t will turn ITSELF" The
game proceeded and the further
