months ago George N. wanted to shin

number OF them were infected with

PITlA1LE CASE OF Distribution.
Family Stricken by Death and Sick
ness and Penniless.

#aAs8Z H
A case of sickness and restitution
that appeals with more than ordinary
force to the charitable was discov.
cred last Wednesday in the northeast.
ern part of the city. Its discovery
was followed by immediate relief and
succOr, thanks to the warn hearted
people of Billings, who are ever ready
to respond to the call of the unfor-
tunate and whose store and purse
are always open to relieve those in
distress.
In a small frame house in North
Twenty-third street lives A. C. Sturgis
and his family, which until Wednes.
day morning was composed of himself
and wife and five little children. The
family is now broken, the wife and
mother having succumbed to a fatal
attack Of pneumonia, complicated by
a hepatic abcess, Wednesday. To add
to the wretchedness and sorrow of
the father all of the children are also
sick, being down with measles in an
exceptionally severe form. Without a
cent OF money and without friends
his case was a pitiable one, indeed.
Fortunately his condition came to the
knowledge of others and soon kind
people were doing all in their power
to aid and relieve him. The Rev
erends G.. B. Miller, pastor of the Bap-
fist church, and G. e. Miller of the
Methodist, constituted themselves a
committee to solicit aid for the strick-
en- and suffering ones. In a short
time they had secured about $50.
which they turned over to Mrs. W. o.
Parker and Mrs. S. R. Salisbury, to be
expended for clothes and other c
saries, for the children were almost
without sufficient clothing to cover
their bodies. In addition to the money.
others gave coal, flour and groceries
and o o the little home contained a
generous store of things that had not
been seen inside of it's walls in a
long time.
h county authorities were an.
pealed to and gave orders for the pro-
per burial of Mrs. Sturgis, whose
funeral took place yesterday morning,
the services being conducted by the
G. B. Miller.
Mr.. Sturgis came here some time
fall and is said to be an indus
trious, hardworking man, but unfor-
tunate in not being able to secure
steady employment, consequently he
has often been compelled to see those
dependent Upon him in actual want
md suffering. When sickness invaded
his humble home he was without
means, and with that pride character
lstic of the average American refused
to make his condition known or to
apply to public charity. Those who
the place say that it is almost
bare of furniture and how the family
managed to get along as it did is a
mystery.

Civic Improvement League viii Meet
in Council Chamber Tonight.
This evening the recently organized
Civic Improvement league will hold
"a meeting in the council chamber OF
1.-THE city hall for the purpose of elect
ing officers to serve during the ensuing
year.
All persons interested in the well
fare and progress of the city are ear
nestly invited to be present and be-
come members of the organization,
which has for its very laudable pur-
pose the improvement and beautify-
ing of the town. In view of the fact
that many strangers will he here this
summer, the league is particularly anx-
ious that the citizens combine in a
united effort to place the city in its
best possible light before them. To
this end much work will have to be
done, for all admit that the amount
of civic pride manifested in the past
has not been as great as it might have
been. There are many vacant lots,
Jack yards, alleys and other places
that need an overhauling and clean
ing and it is the aim and ambition of
the league that this be accomplished
as soon as possible. There are also
numerous other ways in which the
appearance of the city can be i'm
proved, and all will come in for their
proper share of attention from the
%leaguers, for they are very much in
earnest.
Attend the meeting and by your
presence and counsel encourage the
good work undertaken.

RELATIVE VALUES.
Expert Opinion on Values Of Raw and
Irrigated Lands.

irrigated Lands.
While at Glendive about 10 DAYS
ago Mr.. O'Donnell of this city made
a lengthy address on the subject Of
irrigation and alfalfa growing. u
During his address a farmer in the
audience asked the speaker what he
considered the relative value of raw
land and irrigated land. To this
| question Mr.. O'Donnell replied:
I'VE consider the standard price Of
raw land above bitches at 81 an acre.
This was the price paid for railroad
land in large bodies. Of course, adj
joining irrigated land, the raw land is
worth perhaps 50 or So dollars an
acre. We figure land ready to go to
work On at $40 an acre. A quarter
section with water right is good prop
erty at $40 dollars an acre Some OF
it is worth $50 an acre and several
tracts have been sold at SIS an acre.
We have one or two quarter sections
that they are asking 800 an acre for.
l would think land down here at $40
an acre is just about on the basis
of our land. To give you an idea as
to whether this land might be settled.
l will say that the company now build
ing the ditch running EAST from Bill
ings value the land below the ditch
and r selling that land now at s35
per acre, and settlers are buying 1t,
in advance OF the ditch being built.
They sell that land at $35 per acre.
$40 cash and the balance in five years
time at Z per cent interest.
Our alfalfa lands are paying inter-
est on a valuation of 5000 an acre. /
have some of my own land which is
actually doing that. l let out 800 acres |
OF my alfalfa land last season and it
paid interest on that valuation.
"Mr. Mccormick of Billings has sew
eral quarter sections which he says
pay, him 10 per cent on 5000 an acre.
l have a neighbor who was asked
he would take for his farm Of
l6O acres. He said he would take
and leave it. When asked if
wasn't pretty high, he said:
Well, it is paying 10 per cent on that
basis and l don't know where | could
lind a better investment"
Mr.. o. Donnell then discussed the
matter Of finding a market, stating
the supply created it's own mar
ket. He said when. the farmers near
were raising only small GUAM
lilies OF alfalfa it was harder to dis
pose of it than when they began to
ralse 10000 or 10000 tons, as by that
time they had gained a reputation
a market.
so 1t was with potatoes and other
products of the farm, he said. When
7hey were raising only one carload of
potatoes they were a drug on the mar
eel, but as soon as the market In.
creased they had no difficulty in dis.
posing of all they could raise.
He closed his remarks by speaking
II what could be done by raising
logs, bees and other things in coniunc.
o with alfalfa, which unfolded MANY
Possibilities to his audience.

College Bows Give Play.

Successful even beyond the most
sanguine hopes of the faculty of the
school was the play given in the
Broadway Theatre on Sunday evening
by the dramatic society OF the Sacred
Heart college. Edward the Martyr
was the title of the play presented and
the cast was a most capable one. The
tragic details of the dark plots of Ell
fred to remove Edward from the throne
and place his own son Ethelred upon
it were faithfully portrayed.
The piece was written by Rev J. P
Conroy, s. j., especially for this pres
entation. f. j. McDonough PLAYED the
martyred king surprisingly we'll, and
nothing better could be asked than the
acting of James 3. Gilmore and Fran
els Y. Henegan as the villains. Elfred
and German. Dean X. Jaynes and
Louis 7. Tobin as Kenneth and Jukil
respectively pleased the large audience
immensely and the work of Thomas
Danahy as Guthrum. made a tremen-
dous hit. Joseph ]. Walsh and Bernard
J. Murray played the juvenile parts.
The stage settings were all that could be
desired, the costly furniture used being
loaned by Mrs. j. j. Browne of the ca
thedral parish.

Distinguished Visitor at st. Eliza
beth's.

Prince Philip Ernest Fuerst Hohen-
lobe Schillings, the distinguished vis-
itor whom Denver entertained during
the first of this week. with his party
attended high mass at ST Eliza beth s
church last Sunday, observing the
Feast of Pentecost. The prince arrived
in Denver Sunday morning and was
Immediately escorted TO the Brown ho-
tel. He expressed a desire to attend
mass and st. Elizabeth's was selected
as the most desirable church, owing to
the fact that it is the church of the
speaking Catholics. He was
especially delighted to hear a sermon in
German, and it came as a surprise to
him. Father Marcellus, the assistant
pastor of the church, was celebrant in
the absence of Father Plus, the pastor.
His coming was unheralded and the
congregation as it knelt devoutly APP
peared unconscious of the fact that a
royal prince was within the four walls.
The sermon was one prepared for
Whitsunday and no extra effort was
made to make the service more impress
sive. During his entire stay the prince
was royalty entertained, but he laugh
ingly said that the most delightful part
of the programme was attending st.
EliZabeth'S.
