BALLOT ROUNDUP COSTLY.
Butte Election Judges Have TO Travel
600 Miles to Reach County Seat.

Butte county will have a heavy
mileage bill to pay for the bringing In
OF the ballot boxes OF the recent pri-
maries from the two northeast pre-
cincts OF the county. The judges
had the option of driving $50 miles
across country, crossing several I'M
bridges streams which were badly
swollen by recent rains and taking
their chances on delays from that
cause, or making rail trip OF about
600 miles from Lemon by way OF Alb
erdeen, Huron and Pierre They
chose the rail trip as the one which
most likely would land them in the
county seat at Belle Fourche at the
earliest date. Their trip took them
through fourteen other counties OF the
state before they got to the county
seat of their own county.

One of Busters Performances.

It was while Phil Sheridan was fighting Wade Hampton at Trevflian Station, Va, that Custer. taking ad- vantage of the enemy's preoccupation. slipped up a byroad directly in Hamp- tons rear and seized all his spare horses and wagon trains. Just about the time he had got them some cavalry from Fitzhugh Lees column galloped up in the rear of Custer, and there he was, caught between two fires: but al- though he lost not only his captured wagon trains, but his own as well, and though another body of the enemy tm- mediately attacked him from another direction, Custer was equal to the des- perate situation, somehow extricated his little force intact. strengthened out his third line of battle and held on un-: til Merritt's brigade charged through to his relief.

Have you ever watched the exceed ingly delicate and yet firm pressure of the hand of skillful tuner? He will make the string produce a perfectly true note, vibrating in absolute accord with his own never changing tuning fork. The practiced hand is at one with the accurate ear, and the pressure is brought to bear with most delicate adjustment to the resistance. The ten- sion Is never exceeded, he never breaks string, but he patiently strikes the note again and again till the tone is true and the ear is satisfied, and then the muscles relax and the pressure ceases.

~E..t.r Hare pio Scramble ?

In Leicestershire, in England, there is a custom still in vogue called "the Easter hare pie scramble" So many years ago that everybody has forgotten it certain plat of ground was given to the rector of the parish perpetually on the condition that each year on Eas- ter Monday he and his successors should contribute two hare or rabbit pies and a quantity of ale to be Scram. bled for by the villagers. As late as 1892 the ''hare pie scramble" was Ob- served as a great festival. all the vil- lagers turning out to march in process sion behind the men carrying the hare pies, cut up into fragments. When they reached a spot known traditional. ly as Hare Pie bank the sacks were emptied and all the crowd engaged in a fight or scramble for the pies. which were supposed to guarantee good luck to the possessor for the ensuing year.

Curious Marrlaae Customs. l

Among the East Indian GOnds a bride is carried on her brother-infl laws back to the; house of her friends and is made to weep with each of them, while they give her small presents of money. When the ceremony Is about to be per formed at the bridegroom's house the bride hides in another house and calls ''Coow and 4the bridegroom's brother in-law searches for her. As she enters the bridegroom's house two spears are planted before the door to make an arch, and the bridegroom pushes her through, the girl hanging back.
 On the day after the wedding the bride and bridegroom throw mud at each other for sport.
 Among the Marars all the women of the bridegroom's party are shut up in house with the brides sisters bus. bands They all set upon him and beat him, so that he is usually glad to es. cape as soon as possible.-Pioneer of India. X

 Stafford and Rockville came to- gether for the first time last Satur day, playing two games, and Rock vile being the victor in each. The attendance at the morning game on the local grounds was not as large as usual for a Fourth of July game, but this was not to be expected this year, as there were many who had not been able to see the Rockville celebration last week. and were waiting for the Fourth to have the opportunity. In the morning game Collins was matched against Beard. the ex Spring. field pitcher, and honors were about even, although Rockville was for tunate in punching their hits in the fourth inning, when they made all three runs. Beard also received better support at critical moments. Stafford scored it's run in the seventh. Both teams S---- s-evented fro.-1 farther SCOT. EpIaying. The afternoon game at Rockville was at- tended by large crowd from Stafford, Rockville winning by score of 3 to ?.

Smith and Larkin being especially fast. Both games were cleanly played, there being no kicking and the umpiring of Finn and Fahey gave satisfaction to both players and spectators.
