THEIR EFFORTS REWARDED.
Lst.ies Realize Handsomely from Tues
day Nights Entertainment.

&N. @NJ 49,
Although all of the bills have not
yet been audited, the ladies compos-
ing the Yellowstone auxiliary to the
women's committee of the Montana
Worlds Fair commission are conf
dent that more than $500 net will be
realized as a result of Tuesday nights
entertainment. In addition to this
they have $50 forwarded from Round
up, where the ladies gave a dance
and oyster supper recently. Besides
these two amounts contributions are
also expected from Columbus, Park
City and other towns in the county,
in each of which a subcommittee is
at work to raise funds.
The success which has thus far at
tended their efforts is the our Of
not a little satisfaction to Mesdames
A. L. Babcock, Rowley and Jones,
who constitute the auxiliary. They
have labored hard and untiringly and
have the thanks and praise of the
community for the excellent showing
the county will make through their
laboM.

LIGHTING ADMIRAL BUSY AT
NEW cHWANG.
MARINES MAY Be LANDED
Government Will Follow Its UnaIter-
able Policy Of Protecting Ameri-
can Interests Abroad.

Washington, Feb. 18.-Rear Admi-
raj Evans, commanding the Asiatic
squadron, today transmitted to the
navy department a cablegram from
Commander Stanton of the gunboat
Helena, now in mud dock at New
Chwang, China, in which he says
that conditions there are greatly dis
turbed and that he is vigorously in
vestigating the report that the Rus
sian officials have delayed certain
American and British merchantmen.
In the event that the American
consulate is endangered, it is stated,
Commander Stanton will land blue
jackets and marines for the protec-
ton of Consul Miller.
There is every wish on the part
Of this government not to give the
slightest cause for complaint by either
Russia or Japan by eason of inter-
Svention, but the unalterable policy of
America in protecting American in
terests at all hazards will be adhered

Four Kinds of Pies.

"Real pies" writes a oma brightly
in Good Housekeeping, may be divid-
ed into four classes-the hunting case,
the open face, the ~latticework and the
aristocratic." The first has both an up
per and an under crust, and mince pie
is the only one the writer makes this
way, sentiment and precedent being
too strong for her to do otherwise. The
second division includes all pies having
an undercrust only. The latticework
class is well illustrated by a mock
cherry pie, while the aristocratic or
upper crust" pie, az it's name indi.
Gates, is covered with a rich paste. II
IL filled with apples, peaches, berries
prunes, rhubarb or anything the house
wife happens to have and is served up
aide down with a pie knife and a large
spoon.

TREATED TO A SURPRISE.
Friends Remember Wedding Anniver-
sary Of EstimabIe Couple.

Last Sunday marked the 18th an
niversary of the wedding of Mr.. and
Mrs. s. C. Tolliver and their friends
made it the occasion for a pleasant
surprise for them. The affair was
managed with consummate skill by
the conspirators and it proved highly
enjoyable to all who participated.
Because of the severity of the
weather a number from the city who
were in the plot were unable to at
tend; but this did not prevent those
nearer from being present and about
40 guests found themselves under the
ho%spitable roof. Many presents were
given as evidence of the high regard
in which the host and hostess are
held, among them being a beautiful
folding lounge. In addition there were
numerous articles of china and glass
ware, some of the latter including
several cut glass pieces.
To the abundant refreshments pro-
vided by the self-invited guests gen
erous contributions were made from
the pantry of Mrs. iolliver, whose
skill as a mistress of things culinary
was more than sustained. AS decora-
lions the visitors brought numerous
valentines, with which they adorned
the rooms in lavish manner. The
day sped only too rapidly for all and
it was with lingering regret that the
| guests took their departure.

BoER OFFICERS ARRIVE.
General Joubert and Captain o'Don'
WI nell Visit Billings.

nell VISIT oIJIIHOSs
General Joubert ana Captain O'Don-
nell, the Boer officers, arrived from the
west this morning. They were met
at the station by a committee COM
posed of L. D. O'Donnell, H. w. Row
ley and H. P. Vermilye, representing
the Billings club, at whose instance
they decided to include this part OF
ed to the Grand. Subsequently they
were taken to the rooms of the club,
where they met a number of the
business men of the city. This after
noon the visitors were taken in hand
again by the committee and given a
drive up the valley, so that they might
be afforded a practical illustration of
the possibilities to be accomplished
by irrigation.
Tonight General Joubert and Cap
tain O'Donnell will give an illustrated
lecture at the opera house on the
Boer war. Tomorrow morning they
go to Big Timber, where they will
spend the day, and return to Billings
Sunday morning. Sunday and Mon
Gay will be spent by them here, when
they will be shown more of the val
ley and will also be given some in
formation concerning the lands to be
opened by a partial cession of the
Grow reservation. It is not probable
that they will be taken onto the land,
the intention being to show them
maps and supply them with statistics
| calculated to thoroughly inform them
as regards the nature, area and other
other particulars in connection with
the strip proposed to be opened to set
Element.
/As previously published, the gen.
| tlemen are making a tour of the west
for the purpose of seeing the country
with a view to the ultimate estab-
lishment of a Boer colony. Such infor.
nation as they gain will be sent to
the leaders remaining in South Africa,
together with any suggestions or ad.
vice they may think proper. On the
reports made by them will largely
depend the actions of the prospective
colonists. So far they have been
highly pleased with Montana and 1t
is regarded as quite likely that they
will advise their compatriots who are
DESTROYS of leaving their native land
to select this state as the place fol
4, their future home.

DENY THE REPORTS.
Japanese Sustain No Losses Of Fight.
ing Ships.

ing SnlpS.
London, Feb. 18.-The Japanese lie.
CATION here received an official dis
patch from Toxic tonight, saying it
was not true that any Japanese YES
sells had been destroyed so far in
any of the various naval engage
ments, and that all necessary repairs
had already been made. The Japa-
nese fleet remains intact.
This message also denies the report
that the Japanese were driven from
the neighborhood of Kin Chow, after
a skirmish in which $50 Japanese
were taken prisoners, and declares
that the Japanese made no attempt
to land at Pigeon bay.
1t says the japanese forces up to
the present time have made no at
tempt to land at any point where they
could come in contact with the Rus
SLAMS, and that consequently all re
ports of land actions and japanese
losses are untrue.

RUSSIANS GROSS YALu.
Enter Newly Opened Korean Port Of
Wiju.

Seoul, Feb. 18-Three thousand Rus
sian troops have crossed the outer
bank of the Yalu river and 1000 have
entered Wiju, which only yesterday
was declared to be an open port by
the Korean government. The advance
guard Of Japan's army is reported to
be approaching Win, and the first
great clash is apparently at hand.
The report that 5000 Russian troops
had arrived at Shin Tien Cheng, oppo-
site Wiju, or the Yalu river, is con
frmed, as it the report that the Rus
SLAMS have occupied Win itself. They
have 1000 troops at Wiju, and the
first collision is expected somewhere
in That vicinity.
