The youngest son of X Il nry
Warman, who has been spending sew
eral months in the east with Mr., War
mans sister, has arrived and will
meke his home with his parents.
During his trip he doubtless became
exposed to scarlet fever, for since his
arrival it has been discovered that he
afflicted with the dread disease. Every
precaution is being exercised by Mr..
Warmar and the attending physician
to keep others from becoming exposed
and as matter of safety there will be
no services at the church next Sunday
The lad is afflicted with mild form of
the fever and no serious results are
anticipated.

social functions held in Forsyth SO far
this season was given in Alexander s

ladies of the Bachelor club entertained
their friends with a dancing party.
The hall had been handsomely deco.

and this with the evening attire of the
promoters presented very pleasing
scene. At midnight tables were ar
ranged at different intervals about the
hall and a dainty luncheon served
after which dancing was resumed
The Bachelor club, which consists o.
sixteen of Forsyth's fairest daughters
are to be congratulated for the excel
lent manner in which the affair was
managed, and everyone who attended
it is superfuous to say, were more
than pleased with the evening spent.

A Choteau politician who has been
looking over the election returns from
the several counties has come to the
conclusion that the various democratic
tickets had unusually strong candi-

on the head of the ticket, the republic
can candidates for sheriff failed of

We are not in the same position as the car
