is rapidly developing into a town of
some size. The population at present
is in the neighborhood of 1900 and the
payroll is close to $4,000 per month.
The Townsite company has 700 lots

some substantial business houses.
The town is well lighted by electricity.
power being obtained from the plant
of the Kendall mines. The company
has enough surplus power to run sew
eral more mining plants if necessary
and in fact does run wire to the
Barnes King.
Arrangements are being made to
put in an emergency water plant to
the town from the Kendall plant for
the purpose of fire protection and it is
possible that a system Of water works
will be installed shortly. There are
two banks in Kendall, the Kendall
State bank and the First State Bank
Of Kendall. both solid and reliable in
stitutions. Excellent hotel accommo-
dation- Is procurable and the charges
are extremely moderate for a mining
camp. The Power Mercantile Co., the
Montana Hardware Co. and the Fer
gus County Hardware Co. are putting
in branch stores in Kendall while it is
probable that A. L. Slough, formerly
Of Slough & Mitchell Of Stanford, will
erect a store building there shortly.
The volume of business transacted
at this busy little camp would sur
prise anyone who was not acquainted
with the conditions and while there is
no boom the town Is growing rapidly
and will more than double it's present
population during the next year. Some
of the richest agricultural lands Of the
county are found in the immediate
vicinity Of Kendall and the Warm
Spring district, but few miles dist
ant is noted for it's large crops of
farm produce of all kinds. There is
large area Of government land in this
district yet open for entry and on the
virgin bench land there is no doubt
but that winter wheat can be raised
with complete success.
This section of the state is easily
reached over the Montana railroad
which makes connection with the
transcontinental systems through
Lombard, making the trip a pleasant
one as compared with the long jour-
ney which formerly had to be taken
by stage. Connections with the Great
Northern at Great Falls are made by
stage which runs daily between that
point and the city of Lewistown.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion Theater.

In "Fatinitza'' Miss F'ritzi ScheT has found a comic opera in which she can display her best Operatic gifts and per- sonal graces. That is why Manager c. B. Dillingham; is to present his star and that celebrated comic opera at the Fly perion theater tonight and at the mat inee tomorrow. While 'Fatinitza" is nearly three decades old, history has in a way made it timely again. The first scene represents 8 Russian military outpost on the lower Danube; the foe is Turkish; and the second act trans ports the audience to the harem of Iz- get Pasha. who is about to add to his four wives a fifth just captured from the Russians. In other words, there is a real plot as well as rich and swinging music found in this work, and Miss Scheff, it is promised, will give every one an opportunity to admire her dash as young officer and also in feminine attire as a coquettish, saucy girl, who makes a fool of clustering old Rus sian general. The dialogue is liberally spiced with up-to-date jokes and allu- sions. The sparkling military costumes that created such an amount of talk when Miss Scheff appeared in the piece not so long ago at the Broadway thea ter, New York, will all be on view to- night
 All told, this production is about as expensive and picturesque as any which Mir. Dillingham; has yet provided for this magnetic comedienne. Tomorrow night Miss Schaff will anpear in E'Roc- caccio.'

st New Haven TIleater. .

The powerful melodrama Shadows of a Great City, opened a three nights and Saturday matinee engagement at the New Haven theater last night. A large audience witnessed the perform ance and judging from the enthusiastic applause that greeted the efforts of the various members of the cast, it gave entire satisfaction. The company is very strong one and includes several well known favorites, among whom are A. I. Jarrett, as an innocent man who after terms in prison wins; A. V. John- son, as a conspiring villain; Joseph Merrick, detective; C. F. Lorraine, as a pawnbroker; Maud Vauhn, the leiress and Biddy Roman, assumed by Sadie Connolly, who is the life of the comedy; Joseph Allenton and Alice Brophy.
 The piece is an old melodrana, but has not lost it's popularity. The story hinges on the fate of the child of a bankers daughter, who in poverty, not knowing that he father had died soon after casting her from his home for marrying against his will. There are counterplots all through, with the usual pretty love story that, notwithstanding many Instructions, eliminates happily, the child is thrown into the river but is saved by a convict, who is making his escape from Blackwell's Island. She grows to womanhood, he loves her, he is rearrested after fifteen years of lib- erty, but the end is near with happi- ness for all.
 The play is exceedingly strong in scenic and mechanical effects. That of Blaclwellss Island, the boathouse on the river, and the river of real water are realistic in the extreme, and were

 Among this class the symptoms of female diseases are early manifest by weak and aching backs, pain in the lower limbs and lower part of the stomach. In consequence of frequent wetting of the feet, monthly periods become painful and irregular, and fre- auently there are faint and dizzy spells, with loss of appetite, until life is a burden. All of these symptoms point to derangement of the female organ ism which can be easily and promptly cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta- ble Compound.
 Miss Abby F. Barrows, Nelsonville, Athens Co.,, Ohio, tells what this great medicine did for her. She writes:
 Dear Mrs. Pinkhan:--
 q feel it my duty to tell you the good Lydia l. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier have done for me. Before I took them was very nervous, had dull headaches, pains in back, and monthlies were irregular, Ihad been to several doctors, and they did me no good.

 It is to such girls that Mrs. Pink ham holds out helping hand and ex- tends a cordial invitation to correspond with her. Her long record of success in treating woman'sills makes her let ters of advice of untold value to every ailing working girl, and from her wide
 experience and skill she quickly points
 the way to health. Her advice is free,
 and all letters are held by her in the strictest confidence. Address, Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass
