Death of Mrs. Homes.

Just as we were going to press last
Thursday, the sad announcement was
made of the death of Mrs. II. B. Hop
pes, wife of the senior member of the
clothing firm of Hopes & Potter, and
we were unable to give but brief ac-
count of the sad affair.
Although Mr.. and ,Hrs. Hopes had
been residents of Forsyth but about
six months they had gained the ac-
quaintance Of large circle of friends,
and so unexpected was Mrs. Hopes
death that it cast a gloom of profound
sorrow over the community.
Miss Della Rowland, for that was
the name of the deceased prior to her
marriage in June, 1900, to Howard B.
Hopes, was about Is yeaas of age.
was, as everyone knows with whom
she came i'll contact, possessed of an
endearing disposition and other traits
of character that made for her no enc
mics, but warm personal friends. The
remains were taken Friday evening to
the home of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
J. w. Rowland, at Crawford, Neb..
where they were inferred Saturday.
Besides her parents, husband and
infant child Mrs. Hopes leaves a
sister who resides at Crawford, Neb.
In their sad bereavement the afflicted
relatives have the heartfelt sympathy
of the entire community.

1t will be of interest to the ueople of
Montana to know that the Crow Indian
treaty is being kept very much alive
before the national congress. In a
lengthy personal letter, dated Jan 20,
received by Hon. John ID. Losekanp.
OF Billings, from United States Sena-
tor w. "A. Clark, the senator says that
he has had d long conference with
prominent Representatives in congress
on the Crow reservation proposition,
and that while it is impossible to get
the bill through unanimously in it's
present phase, he is endeavorinp to
frame such Il measure as will meet the
approval of those who now OPPOSE the
treaty by amending the bill so that the
government will be fully reimbursed
for the amount paid the Indians. The
senator says that he believes such q
bill can be drafted and the friction
now existing removed, and that the |
measure will become a law in the near
future. He further says the Grow bill
is the most important Legislation he |
has on hand and that it is receiving |
his earnest attention.
