Music in the Air.

Abbeville has ever been noted for Its mu-
sical talent, and never at any time have we
had moro pronounced evidence Of IT than
now. We have q variety OF music;
!. The sweetest and the best music Is made
by our church choirs. =:
2. On the evening zephyrs are thrown the
notes. musical and otherwise, OF the local
brass band as 1t practices the art Of concord
ofsweet sounds"
8. Then from the grand stand, in the park
near the public we'll, in front OF the Eureka
the band plays most excellent strains from 9
we'll trained, talented company Of musicians
4. But 10 crown 1t all, each one Of Us has
tho nightly solo Of the festive mosquito that
luils as to sleep by the melody Of Its voice,
or awakens us to stick our fingers in our ears
and TO express our willingness to dispense
with music for the remainder OF our lives.

The Excursion.

Seven hundred and sixty excursion tickets
were sold over the g.. A. l.. last Monday.
Many white people availed themselves Of the
cheap rate and a great multitude OF negroes
went. The hot weather and the crowded
cars, made the trip memorable one. The
sweltering passengers had compensation In
contemplating the cheap ticketa Except for
the oheapness Of the ticket 1t ia probable that
some OF the passengers would have preferred
q less crowded car. .'.'.'' =. = -

RI ,ttling at the window pane,

Tr ying every bolt and bar.
If the casem ent be ajar,
How he struggles TO get In,
Like some plundering sprite ofsini
Ho W he snarles when held At bay,
Longing for his living prey!
Ho W he shrieks with laughter wild
VII en- be sees some half clad child
Vince you! Feel the storm
Let us hasten where It's warm
For so fiercely comes the chill,
With Its bitter, bitter thrill,
There is scarcely time to heed
Those who feel the pinch OF need
Scarce 'ly time TO realize
That the last red ember dies
Like the faith that flckers low
In som home Of want and woe.

BRANDENBURG, Mont, Feb. %, 1908.
Your correspondent is sorry to say
the birthday of the Father of his coun-
try was not celebrated in any especial
way. But Sir Cupid received better
recognition. A very pleasant party
was given by Mrs. H. c. Goodale at
her home on Tongue river. A number
of people came from Pumpkin creek
to attend and Col. DENLY and Ray and
Carleton Warner were present from
Miles City,
Tongue river people are quite gay
this winter and another dance is an
nounced for Friday, Feb. q, given by
some of the young men, which, of
course, insures it's success.
The weather is fine. We are informed
our friends at the county seat have been
feeling the thermometer at So below,
while we have had reported the lowest
at IA.
While cattle have suffered much from
lack of water, which trouble we hope
has been relieved, stock in gener al is
doing as we'll as could be expected un-
der existing range conditions.
One of Custer county's prominent
stockmen, when visiting on the river a
short time ago, said petition was
being circulated in his section of the
county asking Senator Hopkins to have
the boundary line of Rosebud county
extended about four miles to the east of
where it now is. He stated he signed
the petition and that it seemed to be
meeting with success in securing sign
ers.
The closing of the old county road to
Miles City through what is known as
the 81 pasture is causing much dis
satisfaction and a petition is being
circulated asking to have it reopened.
The hill road" as the new road is
called. is very hard TO travel and is in
very poor condition. People above that
section threaten to throw their trade to
Rosebud county should the old road
through the pasture be permanently
closed.

Seven sets were danced and the pro-

About II o'clock masks were removed
and at II supper was partaken of,
after which the dancing space in the

hour. -

were most beautiful. while one looked
