The Meaning of Orange Blossom.

The orange tree is regarded as prince
among trees and the emblem of genius. A
popularity of this tree is that it bears
fruit and flower at the same time. It's
leaves are evergreen, and as it grows older
1t grows in beauty and fruitfulness, its
blossom filling the air with its fragrance.
1t is indeed fit emblem of marriage prom
lse and hopes.
The orange tree Is considered typical of
love because, though it's fruit is golden and
its flavor and scent delicious its rind is
bitter, and, as every one knows who has
experienced 1t, Cupids dart causes pain.
The grange is embIematic of gratitude as
well as of genius and love.

those able-bodied ANIMALS you rely on to
shift from place to place and from which
hardy cuttings are obtained. These shoots
must be planted in three-inch pots before
1t is time to place them out of doors. Rose
trees that bloom in June are planted in
May, usually in beds four feet wide and
twelve inches apart each way. The varie-
ties of roses are almost endless, but unless
one has had experience in growing them
it is best to plant only the hardy kinds.
1t is more satisfactory to lovers of flowers

often all out of the plant, and it never

plants not more than six inches high, which
will bloom in profusion the entire summer.
On the whole, cuttings slips amateurs

HAY OPENS
IN MONTANA
SECRETARY SELECTS THIS STATE
FOR OPENING CAMPAIGN.
WILL PROCEED TO COAST
Senator Fairbanks Also intends to
Participate Actively, Beginning
His Tour in Kansas.

L Chicago, Aug. 15.--That Senator
Fairbanks, republican vicetpresiden-
tial candidate, will almost continu-
ously participate in the campaign and
tour the country for the ticket, was
decided today as the result of visit
made by him to republican headquar-
terE in this city.
The senator reached the city on
an early train from Indianapolis and
left at O'Clock on his return, and
was in consultation during the greater
part Of the time between his arrival
and departure with republican leaders,
including Chairman New, Secretary
Dover, Congressman Tawney, the Hon
orable C. G. Dawes, the Honorable r.
S. Snyder and the Honorable D. w.
Mulven. The gentlemen are all con-
cerned with the details of the cam
paign and the time was spent in try
ing to- reach an agreement as to when
and where Senator Fairbanks tour
should begin and how it should be
arranged as to best conserve his time
and energy.
He has entered into an engagement
to open the Kansas state campaign at
Marion, on September l, and there are
calls for him for earlier dates in Yer
mont. He also today indicated his
positive acceptance of an invitation to
speak at Saratoga ON the 14th of Sep
tember, on the occasion of the 50th
anniversary of the organization of the
republican party at that resort. Later
he will visit the far west and other
sections in which the national COM
mittee wish to have him speak, but
tie details cannot be decided until
Chairman Cortelyou's wishes are
known.
Mr.. Tawney, in charge of the speak
ers' bureau, announced today that
Secretary Hay would enter the cam.
paign next week, beginning in Mon
tana. He will proceed thence to the
Pacific coast and return through Cali
fornia and Kansas.
The selection of the point in Mon
tana for the initial speech will be
left to former Senator Carter.

Fair Association Expending Much
~ Money for Betterments.
"A number of Improvements are be-
ing made at the fair grounds and the
changes making there are certain to
be appreciated by the patrons when
completed. The association having
obtained a long lease from the city,
now feels justified in undertaking the
many hetterments it desired to make
and is liberal with it's expenditures
to place the grounds in first-class
shape.
The seating capacity, hitherto linn
tied, is being increased by the con-
struction of "bleachers,' a short dis
tance west of the grandstand. All
of the buildings are receiving coats
of paint and whitewash is being
applied wherever needed. The
facilities for watering stock have been
much improved, while the stalls and
stables are being renovated and made
better than they ever were
Because of the liberality of the
purses offered and the variety of
events, many entries have been made
and the number Of horses that will
participate in the different races will
be much larger than ever before. En-
tries have been made from Helena,
Lewistown and other places in the
state and are already on the track,
with others arriving almost daily.

"JIM" HOPKINS DEAD.
Prominent Resident Of Eastern Mon.
tana Passes Away.

One of the really prominent men
of eastern Montana passed away when
James S. Hopkins died at Forsyth
during the latter part of last week
Although still young man, Mr.. Hop.
kinsI had attained unusual success in
the world and entered upon career
that held out many promises. In
politics and in business he had ad
vanced to a degree attained by very
few older men. He was twice elected
to the legislature from his county,
each time ON the democratic ticket.
His death appears to have been
attributable to an accident with which
he met a little over year ago. when
he was thrown from horse that
stumbled and fell with him, causing
injuries to the spine. This caused
him to be confined to his bed for a
number of months. Last May he ap.
peared to have fully recovered and at
ton at Great Falls. While there he
was taken suddenly sick and was re.
moved to Helena for treatment. He
remained there about a month, when
he seemed to be we'll once more and
left for his home. Only a few weeks
ago he was in attendance at the meet,
ing of stockmen held at Helena and
it was not known that he was sick
until the news of his death was re
ceived.
Mr.. Hopkins was born at Syracuse
N. Y, June 26, 1863. When but II
years of age he removed to Colorado
where he remained two years, work.
ing on a ranch. His next move was
ito Montana as an employe of the
Colorado & Montana Cattle company
which concern had its herds in Cas-.
cade county. There he became inter.
ested i'm the stock business on his
own account. Subsequently he branch.

ber of places, owning land and stock
in Custer and Rosebud counties, while
he also was heavy stockholder in
the First National bank of Forsyth
and had commercial interests of con.
siderable magnitude. While of re
served nature, he was genial and com.
panionable, once his acquaintance was
formed. Mr.. Hopkins was a member
of the Masonic and Odd Fellow bodies
of Forsyth and also belonged to Miles
City lodge of Elks.

little girl at Columbus. 1t seems he
was arrested, but managed to escape
and boarded the train, hiding himself
on the roof of one of the coaches.
The train stopped at Park City and
effort was made to catch the fellow
He could not be found, although a
boy was discovered who was seen to
board the train with him.
The search for the alleged robber
greatly interested Grady, who had
been temporarily left in charge of one
OF the passengers. He leaned far
out of the window and eagerly peer
ed into the darkness and intently lis-
tened to every sound. When the train
resumed it's journey and he was told
that the man had escaped, Grady
laughed in quiet manner and seemed
to regard the thing as something de-
cidedly amusing.
Arraigned on New Complaint.
Grady was arraigned yesterday at
ternoon before Justice Fraser on the
complaint charging him with robbery.
Demand was made by his counsel
for an immediate hearing. This was
resisted by the county attorney and an
agreement was finally reached by
which the preliminary examination
was set for Saturday, August TO- When
this matter had been disposed of an
other talking fest ensued. Judge
Fraser said the defendant would be
required ito give bonds in the sum OF
$4,000. This took away the breath of
Grady and his lawyers, who declared
the bail demanded to be excessive
and went back into the criminal his
tory of the county to show that no
case was on record where prisoner
charged with that offense had ever
been required to give surety in great
er sum than $1,000 for his appearance
before justice of the peace.
His honor remained obdurarte and
Grady was taken back to Jail, being
unable to furnish the bond.

Thomas Smith Dies Suddenly at the
Crow Agency.

Last Saturday H. v. Bailey, who
conducts a hardware store at the
Grow agency, found the dead body OF
Thomas Smith resting on the doorstep
of the agency butcher shop. H. R.
Marcys, acting coroner of Rosebud
county, was notified, who came to
this city on his way to the agency
When he arrived here he made in
quiries into the case and decided
that an inquest would not be neces-
sary, as it was apparent that death
had resulted from heart disease, q
complaint from which Smith had long
suffered. The booy was brought here
Sunday and buried.
Smith was brother of Charles
Smith, recently deputy game warden
for this county. Another brother lives

MAKE VOYAGE IN SAFETY.
HoImses Finish Long River Trip
from Billings.

Readers of The Gazette will prob
ably recall an account contained in
these columns last May in which de-
tails were given of the launching of a
unique craft by couple of Cody,
Wyo., men, John and Gus Holms,
father and son, who took that method
OF reaching st. Louis to visit the ex-
position. Their boat was built in
this city and was of the batteau order,
much affected by the early voyageurs
and traders who frequented the north
west during the days of the fur trade.
May 16 the boat was slipped into
the Yellowstone, below the new wagon
bridge, and the two imitators OF the
men of long ago began their long jour-
ney which was to take them to their
destination on the bosom of three
rivers. Eighty days after bidding fare
we'll to Billings they landed at st.
Louis, having travelled approximately
5000 miles, during which they passed
through an ever changing panorama
and some of the most interesting
scenery to- be found anywhere on the
continent. No nishap of a serious
nature befell them and they reached
their destination in the best OF health.
A canvas roof protected the sailors
from rain and sun, while curtains OF
the same material afforded shelter
on the sides in case pf bad weather.
The two daring men will remain at
st. Louis for some time, after which
they intend to return by rail to their
home, as it is out of the question to
undertake the return trip by water.
