ASKS EXTENSION
OF FREE DELIVERY
RESIDENTS in EAST PORTION OF
CITY ARE AFFECTED.

Postmaster Prickett has petitioned
the pbstofnce department to extend
the limits Of the free delivery in this
city SO al to include North Nine
teenth and Twentieth streets between
Montana and Fifth avenues. The pro-
posed extension Of the free delivery
will not necessitate an extra carrier
and 1t is believed that the postmas-
ter's petition will be allowed.
In order to avail themselves Of the
free delivery residents Of that section
must comply with the rule, which is
being rigidly enforced, that all houses
to which mail is delivered must be
numbered.
The discontinuance of the free de-
livery to houses in the west side is
responsible for the large number Of
residents Of that section affected,
placing house numbers on their res
licences recently.

PRESIDENT OF N. r. LIKES SPIRIT
DISPLAYED BY PEOPLE.
OVER THE NEW DEPOT
Sends Telegram to Billings Man
Citizen Says Location Of Structure
Meets With Approval-controversy
Is on in Spokane.

A message expressing qualification
over the action Of the city council in
granting the Northern Pacific Rail-
way company's petition for the vaca-
ton of several streets, to permit the
erection Of a new depot and over the
friendly spirit displayed by the citi-
zens, has been received by a promi-
nent business man of this city from
Howard Elliott, president Of the rail-
way company.
The message from Mr.. Elliott states
that he will urge that construction
work on the new $4,000 structure
start Immediately or as soon as feas-
ible and be pushed to early compile
ton.
In speaking of the message yester-
day, a prominent citizen of the city
said that Billings was to be congrat-
ulated on securing the depot and that
the people had done exactly the right
thing in displaying a friendly spirit
toward the railway company and in
granting the petition.
.'The location of the new depot
seems to meet with the approval Of
everybody" he said, "and so far as I
have been able to ascertain there is
not a man, woman or child in the
city whose property interests will
suffer in the least or who is opposed
to the depot being built between
Twenty-fourth and T%wenty-third
streets.
This is indeed fortunate in more
ways than one. In Spokane the peo-
pie have been demanding a new depot
for the past two years, but there is a
controversy over where it is to be 10
Gated. This controversy has contin-
ued for two years and Spokane hasn't
even secured the promise for a new
structure yet and it is not probable
that they will for some time to come
as the railway company will simply
wait until the people decide on where
they want the depot located"

MILITIA COMPANY
HAS new ARMORY
LARGE NUMBER OF NEW RE.
cRulTs RECEIVED FOR CO. K.

The members Of the local militia
company are preparing to move the
company's equipment to the Coliseum
rink from the Public Motor garage, as
the rink has been secured as an arm
DRY by the company.
Plans are being made by the com
pany to give dances once a month
after the drill. 1t is probable that the
method Of charging 10 cents Tor each
dance will be adopted If the dances
are given.
Eleven recruits for the company
have been received recently, and at
the present time the company has
nearly its full quota Of men II the
number Of applications for admission
into the company continues it Is prob.
able that a waiting list will be estab-
lished.
The encampment at American lake
this summer is a strong inducement
to those who intend enlisting, and the
fact that the officers have issued an
order to the effect that members OF
the company must be enlisted at
least six weeks before encampment
in order to take part in the same is
probably responsible for the large
number Of recruits that are being re-
ceived.

"Gus" Does Stunts.

One night recently Whine in Peoria,
Ill, Miss White decided to take ".Gus''
the name sheshad given the dog-to
the theater for his first visit behind
the scenes, giving him a tall chair to
sit on beside her. The stars dress
ing o being located just on the
stage and the night being warm, the
door was left slightly ajar. The Or
chestra had just started up the over
ture to 1.-THE Burgomaster," when all
Of a sudden and quick as q fash "Gus"
was down OF the chair, out through
the door onto the stage, and to the
amazement Of all the stage hands
commenced to turn somersaults, walk
on his hind legs, then on his front legs
jumping over chairs, tables all in
perfect time to the music.
Hastily donning q dressing sack
Miss White rushed after him and just
in time she grabbed her pet from the
grasp Of n Of the stage hands, who
had at once recognized the dog as be-
ing one Of the Gentry Bros dogs, OF
the Gentry dog and pony show, and
for whom the Gentrys had offered q
large reward. It appears that during
the last season this stage employee had
been the boss dog boy with the Gentry
show while in Milwaukee, and had
been discharged for allowing the dog
to escape. The dog had fallen from
one OF the miniature wagons while Il
parade and wandered out into the
country, and it is believed that during
the night had been run WI by o
heavy farm wagon.
Allowed to Keep Pet.
Miss White had to plead very hard
with the a and offer-a large re
Enumeration. hui. after persistent EFFORT
was finally allowed to keep her pet
with the assurance that nothing more
would be said about it. GUS travels
along with Willie, in a specially con-
structed part Of ''The Burgomaster's''

the pet and mascot OF the entire com
lpany.

SHEEPMAN FILES
SUIT ON CONTRACT
ALLEGES VIOLATION OF
CONTRACT in: COMPLAINT.

Owen B. Parham, q well known
stockman Of this section, yesterday
filed suit in the district court against
]. D. O'Donnell, alleging in his COM
plant a violation of q contract. for
the sale and delivery Of sheep. Judg-
ment for $4,000 with interest and
costs Of the suit are demanded.
Parham states in his complaint that
the defendant entered into a contract
with him July !, 1907, whereby he
agreed to sell and deliver to the plain
tiff on April 5, 1908. 5000 head Of
lambs for $3.50 a head. According to
.Parham 1t was. agreed that Mr.. O'Don-
nell was to dip these sheep and care
for them during the winter in the
vicinity Of Hesper farm. :Parham also
states that the contract specified that
the sheep were to be in m~erchantable
condition at the time Of delivery.
Parham paid $500 to the plaintiff
at the time the contract was executed,
according to the complaint, and in
October paid $4,000 more which would.
have become due January l, accord
ing to a clause in the contract. After
reciting that dipping lambs is Of ma
terial benefit in wintering them, the
complaint continues that the defend
ant failed to dip the lambs to their
detriment and did not care for them
as agreed. Parham declares that he
complained to Mr.. O'Donnell. but
without avail.
He declares that because the
sheep were not properly cared for and
dipped they were greatly damaged,
and are not nearly as valuable as
when he contracted for the animals.
That he has been at all times ready
and willing to perform his part Of
the contract as agreed, is set forth. as
well as the fact that on April IL he
demanded the return OF the $4,000 he
had paid on the contract.
Interest and principal alike on the
money he alleges he paid is demand.

WILL APPOINT SUCCESSOR 70
SUPERINTENDENT BROTHER.
LETTERS ARE RECEIVED
Applicants for Position Write From
Nearly Every state-schools viii
Be Renovated plans for New
Building. +.

This is a very busy time for the
school board as we'll as the teachers
and scholars who are busy with ex-#
aminations completing the work for
the school year. Several important
matters r being considered by the.
board, chief of which is the appoint
ment Of a successor to g. s.. Brother
as city superintendent Of schools.
Applications to the number of $50
have been received from educators
from almost every state in the union
for the position. One letter was re-
ceived from a teacher in Panama,
who, having heard Of the vacant Of
flee, desired information with a view
Of coming here If possible. Most Of
the communications have been re-
ceived from eastern states, especially
from Illinois and Minnesota.
No Politics IN His.
One professor in his letter stated
that he would be delighted to take
the job IL there was no politics con
nected with 1t. "A number OF educa-
tors have visited the city recently to
look over the situation and the fact
that every n Of them has sent an
application to the school board shows
that they evidently think it a job
worth the trouble to try for anyway.
When the board will make an ap-
pointment is not known, but 1t will
be made at the earliest possible time
SO that the new officer may have an
opportunity to go over the ground
with Superintendent Brother before
the latter leaves for his new field at
tOxford, Miss, where he will be con-
nected with the University Of Missis-
sippi.
Cleaning Of Buildings.
Another matter that IS being con-
sidered by the board is the cleaning
and renovation OF the school build
-
ings during the summer vacation. All
the various buildings will be repaired
and put into the best of condition for
the opening Of school in September.
Every schoolroom in the city will be
equipped with an automatic fire ex.
tinguisher Of which five dozen were
ordered last week.
Plans for the new school house au.
thorized at the recent school election
are also receiving due consideration
at the hands Of the board. A site for
the building will soon be selected
and construction work will commence
Immediately afterwards. The new
/ structure will be a fine addition to
the city schools and will cost in the
neighborhood Of $4,000, being modern
in every respect.
