Down This Way.

For a genuine example of western
town pride go to Billings"
So said A. Buchanan, a well-known
newspaper man from that thriving lit
tie city, at the Thorton this morning,
says the Inter Mountain.
If there is any man in Billings who
is not willing to champion her cause
ind herald his town as the coming
metropolis of the northwest, he is
considered a gutter.
'There are numerous reasons why
the people of Billings should feel a
commendable pride in the city's
growth and look for a glowing future
Splendid Development.
"The way that country is being de-
veloped is something marvellous. There
are evident indications of the progress
in the growing enterprises and in the
buildings in construction and in con-
temptation. A new city hall is being
built. A business block which Will
soon be completed is one of the most
imposing buildings in eastern Mon
tana.
tThe electric light people are max
ing arrangements for the construction
of another large building and many
plans are under consideration for the
erection of residence and business
houses all over the city,

people have not been able to handle
the wool fast enough for the buyers.
An immense outlying tract of country

is the main shipping point for the
wool of eastern Montana.
ga healthy and significant indica-
ton of the future Of the city is the
proposed new electric light and power
plant, for which parties are now ne

Board of Trade.
"Nor in the general rush for ma
terial advancement is the embellish-
ment OF the city forgotten, for the cit
liens are making preparations to lay
out a pretty park near the depot. The
railroad company has already donated
land for the purpose and all that is
needed to carry out the plan is the
accordance and assistance of the city
council, which will undoubtedly be
given.
"They have an enterprising board of
trade in Billings, which is continually
alive to the interests of the commun-
ity and never fails to take advantage
of an opportunity to advertise it's town
and bring it before the notice of set
tiers and spectators.
among the many methods of ad-
vertising the city, the board of trade
has decided to get out a number of
folders for distribution on the trains.
These neat little pamphlets will set
forth the various resources of the ad-
joining country, the many opportuni-
ties for business enterprises, and the
demand for mechanics of every class
and especially in the building trades.
IF Billings fails to reach the pro-
portions of Chicago or New York, it
will not be for want of the enthusiasm,
effort and enterprise of her citizens

It is granite of warm. almost yellow ish tone, which is said to be very hard. At the left Of the chapel is seen a part of one of the great arches for the ca thedral choir.

The pure Gothic style lends itself admirably to location and size O; building, and. although there Is no spire. the suggestion oc corner towers adds to the churchliness of the struc- ture. One excellent feature of the plan of this building is that it harmonizes with surrounding structures.

MILLION DOLLARS IN CHURCHES

Of new churches in this city the az gregate cost is fully a million dollars. so that it is obvious that some of our prosperity is being invested in tenn pies of worship. The range of faith represented by the group is also an in- tercsting feature.
 The West Farms Presbyterian church to be built as a memorial to Mrs. Jean nette Beck by a bequest of her son. Charles E. Beck, is to be the finest church edifice in the borough of The Bronx, New York.
 St. Nicholas's Russian church is of a different architectural type from any other in New York. Its plans were drawn by John Bergesen, who has pro- Vided design purely eastern, with lots of color and ornamentation. The audi tcrium is very high. the large central dome giving feeling oi Ioftiness.
 The First Church O. Christ, Scientist is building from plans by Messrs. Car rere & Hastings. It also differs from any other New York church. The ma terial is white marble, and the interior is to be finished on finer scale, so it is said, than any church in the coun- try.
 St. Ignatius's Church is of the Rit- ualistic Episcopal churches of the country, and the architect, C. C. Height. appropriately chose the early English Gothic as the architectural style. The building, which has just been completed, is very beautiful both outside and in, the interior especially with it's elaborate altars, being impress siVe and churchly. A small parish house adjoins the church. and contains apartments for the rector
 The Belmont chapel of the Episcopal cathedral of St. John the Divine is the first part of that great structure to show, in stone, the architectural style of the cathedral. It is one of seven chapels which will ultimately surround the choir, and will very soon be com pleted. so that services may be held

 I am speaking, of course, of the flats where the rentals are f60 or f100 per arnUm.

THE BEST REMEDY FOR GROUP. CF'rom the Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe)
 This is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in demand in every neighborhood. One of the most terrible things In the world is to be awakened in the middle of the night by a whoop from one of the children. The croup remedies are almost as sure to be lost, in case of croup, as a revolver is to be lost in case of burglars. There used to be an old fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tolu, but some modern mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to throw up the phlegm" quicker, and gives re- lief in a shorter time. Give this rem edy as soon as the croupy cough ap- pears and it will prevent the attack. It never fails and is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by Elvey & Hulett, druggists.

It has been discovered that the new Jim Crow car law of New Orleans makes the conductor such an autocrat as he is in no other city" says the New Orleans Picayune. Perhaps the most objectionable feature of it is that which authorizes and empowers the car conductors to pronounce which of the passengers are whites and which are negroes. There is no restraint on these irresponsible persons clothed with such extraordinary functions. A car conductor under this law, upon his own unassisted judgment, without talk ing any testimony or making any in qutry, pronounce that any person to whom he has taken dislike or a prej- udice is a negro and must sit in the compartment set apart for negroes, under penalties for refusing to accept his decree. In the same way he can force a negro into the compartment for whites"

Veterans Body Found In Swamp.

Vineland, N. j., Jan. 27.-The body
of julius Decking has been found in
a swamp near Millmay. About year
ago Becking disappeared from his
home in Millmay. Saturday some men
stumbled over the remains, which
were recognized by the clothing. Beck
ing was veteran of the civil war and
a member of Lyon Post, G. A. R., of
this palce, which took great interest
in his disappearance. Diligent search
was made by citizens and Pinkerton
detectives, but without avail. Becking
disappeared after receiving his pen
sion. He left Millmay to enter the
Soldiers Home at Vineland. 1t is said
that his skull is fractured, and there
is every indication that the man was
murdered for his pension money.

Of Church and State.
Cincinnati, Jan. 27.-The National
Liberal party was organized here yes

The explosion occurred at the noon
hour, and it was known as a dust"
explosion. The miners had just fired
their usual noon shots, one of which
proved to be a fZzle. The burning
powder ignited the gas and the eX-
plosion followed. Smoke and debris was
blown out of the shaft 200 feet high.
f'urt of the top works were torn
away and the fans and cages were
partially wrecked. This made the
work of rescue very slow, and it was
5 o'clock before volunteer parties
dared to venture into the east shaft,
where the explosion occurred. When
they fought their way in, a horrible
sight greeted them. The dead and
injured were terribly burned and mu-
tilated, some of them almost beyond
recognition. Fire, which at first was
feared would prove destructive to the
added terror to the spectacle. The
flames were finally controlled, and af-
ter several of the rescue party had
succumbed to the fumes all the dead
were found and carried to the top of
the shaft
At the time of the explosion more
than one hundren men were in the
the east entry, escaped with only
slight injury. The total property dam
age will be about $4,000. 1t was
nearly dark last night when the last
OF the dead was taken out, and the
scenes of anguish among the families
of the men were most pitiful. Nearly
al of the men were married and leave
families in poor circumstances. The
mine is owned by the Lost Creek
Fuel company, of this city, and has
been in operation about one year.
