not known, but the hens in this part
of the state seem to be on a strike
for the winter. At all events they
have ceased laying and eggs are a
luxury that only few can indulge IN.
Even the cheap hens of the east re-
fuse to furnish their usual quota OF
the ovoids and do not come into COM
petition with the home biddies. So
scarce have eggs suddenly become all
over the country that the local dealers
declare it to be an impossibility to
secure any from the cold storage cen
ters and the market for a number OF
days has been absolutely bare of any
thing in the shape of eggs. In the
far east eggs are retailing from As to
Is cents a dozen and hard to get at
those exceptionally high figures.
In spite of the talk that was heard
earlier in the season concerning he
vast amount of stock that would be
held in northern Wyoming this winter
on account of the prevailing low prices
on the Chicago market, according to
reports received here the number of
animals that will be wintered there
will be smaller than usual. In the
vicinity Of Buffalo it is said that about
everything fit for market has been dis
posed of and the holdings consist OF
breeding animals only. Because of the
ravages Of grasshoppers in that To-
cality last summer feed is very scarce
A further fact that initiated against
the retention of large herds and fiocks
in that locality is that much of the
territory heretofore used for grazing
is within the boundaries of a forest
reserve and sheepmen in particular
are uncertain as to next season.

FUNERAL is POSTPONED.
Body of Franc Will Be Held a
Meeteetse.

Receipt of a telegram from the
brother of the late Otto Franc has
caused a change in the arrangements
that had been made here and at the
dead mans ranch for the funeral,
which was to have taken place in this
city this afternoon.
Yesterday a telephone dispatch was
received from M%eeteetse by George
F. Benighoff in which it was said that
a short time before a telegram had
arrived there from Mr.. Francs broth
er in which directions were given to
hold the body until after the arrival
of the brother, who announced that
he intended to leave his home, Brook
Ign, for Meeteetse at 2:30 O'clock
yesterday morning. The dispatch was
dated the day before and was sent
in response to the answer wired him
in reply to his query concerning the
| condition of the remains.
Immediately following the informa-
ton of Francs death Mr.. Bennington
gave directions to have the body en-
balmed and prepared for burial. This
has been done and at the time the
Brooklyn dispatch was received at the
ranch the remains were en- route to
Meeteetse, from which point they were
{ to be taken to Cody for transshipment
over the Burlington to this city and
were expected to arrive here this
morning. In consequence of the direc.
tions of the brother a messenger was
dispatched from the ranch to overtake
the men who had the body in charge
with instructions to them to hold it
at Meeteetse, where it now is.
If he. makes proper connections and
! experiences no delays, the brother
should arrive Sunday morning. Wheth
err he will come via Billings or take
the southern route and go direct tc
Cody by way of the Burlington ano
thence to Meeteetse is not known.
A gentleman named Merrill, a frien6
and neighbor of Franc, has been ap
pointed administrator, ad interim, anG
is now in charge of the dead man:

inc Last Few DAYS,

ing Last e Days.
z During the last three or four days
the weather has been giving a success
full exhibition of it's capriciousness and
all four of the seasons have been rep
resented during that short time. There
has been alternate sunshine, snow a
little rain and temperature ranging
from summer heat to winters cold.
Wednesday morning, shortly before
daybreak, a wind set in from the north
west that almost reached the dignity
of a gale. While it slackened a little
with the approach of daylight, it was
still of sufficient force to make out
door existence anything but agreeable,
as those soon found out who were
compelled to leave the shelter OF their
homes. Fortunately no damage OF
general extent was done. A few signs
were dislodged and some fences laid
low. Foley & Grove, who have the
contract for erecting the city's store
house in the eastern part OF town,
were the heaviest individual losers.
Two of the wallis OF the building were
blown down and will have to be fe-
built entirely. AS brick is used in the
structure, the material may be uti-
lized again.
The Billings Brewing company also
came in for a share of the loss. A
portion of n of it's large smokestacks
was broken off. -
Further east in the valley the storm
seems to have bepn much more Sc.
we're and considerable loss to property
has been reported in consequence.
At Miles City windows were broken
and other mischief wrought by the
Borean hosts.
Locally the weather yesterday was
a melange of good and bad. The ear.
lier hours promised a day OF. sunshine
and warmth, but they proved only
poor prophets. During the forenoon
snow began to fall and when it ceased
the ground was covered with a mantle
of white. AS the temperature re-
NAMED above the freezing point, much
of the snow melted almost as fast as
it fell and the streets, which had
begun to dry as a result of the wind
of the day before, once o became
sloppy and pedestrianism was difficult
in many places and disagreeable in all
The storm seems to have been only
a segment of n that appeared gen
eral in almost every direction, but
at a greater distance. When the Bur

NOTES FROM THE aARBoB.

The regular trend OF affairs have begun
again on the bridge over the river at
Point street for Engineer Nicholson Is
again at his accustomed post. He has
been away for two weeks on vacation
and from the Improvement that is appar-
ent I'm him II was not taken before It was
needed. He returned to work this morn
ing looking far more healthy than when
he went away and no one who sees him
will say that his rest did not do him good.
He has taken on some flesh and there is a
fullness In his cheeks that was lacking a
few weeks ago.
One OF the most notable effects OF the
downpour OF yesterday evening may be
seen this morning by anyone who visits
the river at any point within the city
limits. The stream Is as muddy and tur-
bulent today as almost any mountain
stream during a freshet In the sprfng.
Though the tide had not yet come in at
1880 the water was almost as high as
usually is the case when the tide is at
flood.
Harbor Master Mcclure was the reclp-
lent this morning OF a potificat tion which
was TO the effect that n small auxiliary
launch had been missing from Stoning-
ton. Conn, from few days and was
either stolen from that place or adrift.
