Woman Who Became Known as MusI'

Butte.-Mrs. Maggie Doherty, aged
CT, a native of Minnesota and a resi-
dent of Silver Bow county for num-
Der of years, died early in st. James
hospital of pneumonia.
But little is known about her early
life except that her name was Maggie
Sweeney and that fortune was spent
on her musical education. An eccles-
iastic furnished the money that made
it possible for her to have her voice
cultivated by one of the greatest ten
ors of the day. She was also one OF
the great pianists of the country.
About 20 years ago she was married
to David Doherty, but the union was
not happy one and divorce was
the result. Mrs. Doherty's end came
in restitution. She had been removed
to the hospital from the county poor
| farm.

Bridesmaids for Hire.

Romance dies out in the world, If
would almost seem, with the advent
of the professional bridesmaid.
Whether for better or worse, however,
she has arrived, and bureau in Lon
don offers to supply her, or a dozen
of her, suitably attired, at an hours
notice, for the sum of one guinea. Run
away couples might be expected to
figure as the bureaus chief patrons,
but it is said that the professional ap-
pears at formal weddings also, and
seems to fill want as clearly as does
the paid guest who goes to dinners
and dances given by the new rich. 1t
would be interesting to know whether
this type of bridesmaid feels emotion
or catches a thrill of inspiration from
the events in which she officiates. If
the thought of the guinea leans in her
mind no room for softer sentiment
hers IL a hopeless casa indeed.

For st. Valentine.

Hearts are trumps,' and Cupid
reigns supreme! The very atmosphere
ssNms full of hearts of red and pink;
darts of gold and silver, true lovers
knots and other love symbols galore.
A progressive party quite out OF the
culinary and yet in keeping with the
day is to be given next Saturday night
The invitations are out on the most
beautiful Valentine creations, and the
score is to be kept with cunning little
red hearts, each equipped with tiny
wire by which it will be attached to
the heart-shaped score card, or rather
booklet.
When the guests arrive they will be
given these booklets with hand-paint-
ed heart covers. There are five leaf
let's, each containing at the top let
ter in the word heart" the first one,
of course, having an Oh" The scheme
Is first to match hearts to find part
ners. Then over each table there Is
to be suspended C. heart to designate
the color of the table. When four
people have found hearts of one color
they find the large table to match.
The bell rings and ell see how many
words they can write down beginning
with III" barring proper names. Then
when the bell rings the two having
the most words progress to the next
table, where they take the next let
ter on the page, which will be "E."
At the end, when the words have all
been written, as many prizes as the
hostess chooses to give are awarded.
This is more novel than cards for this
occasion, and has been proved a sue
cess by those who have tried it.
Heart festoons are attractive in the
rooms, and Cupids may be put on the
cakes or candies.

It was indeed an ingenious hostess
who evolved this charming affair for
st. Valentines evening. For the bene-

given entire.

hearts, bore this Jingle:
We gladly indite you
This note, and invite you
On Valentines evening to come
And join in a hearty,
New tangled wish party
With friends who will make you at home.
For some time previous to this the
wishbones of all the turkeys and chick
ems that had been consumed by the
family and neighbors had been saved
with this occasion in mind. Now they
were fastened upon heart-shaped val
entine, one for each guest, a special
rhyme embodying a wish being in
scribed with gold ink. These rhyme
let's may be made to suit the in.

he didn't come down on the rug as

them above his head so that he sat

lucky, too, for il he had retained his
senses the sight of the great depths
below him as he sailed along would
probably have made him dizzy. and
while in that state Of vertigo he
might have fallen off the rug and been
dashed to pieces. He said he seemed

DEAD MEN ON BONDS.
Montana Gamblers, Caught in Raid,
Outwit Law.

Butte.-Dead men have been in the
habit of signing bonds for gamblers,
who are arraigned in Silver Bow coun-
ty justice courts, according to state
ment made in Judge Donland's depart
ment of the district court.
The matter came up for general dis
cussion for the reason that it was
the day set for the trial Of number
of men accused of gambling. Only
two were on hand and ready for trial
and the bonds for their appearance
are, the county attorney said, worth
less.
James Dunlap is one of the signers,
and County Attorney Walker said at
ter careful inquiry he had discovered
Mr.. Dunlap had died two years ago
and that, if he signed the bond at all
he must have done so about eighteen
months after his death. AS result
half a dozen gamblers caught in the
raid will escape.

know the Arabic for "Pasteur cure"
Philharmonic says that the most
wonderful thing was that after all that
fight, and in spite of the incredible
swiftness with which he must have
travelled if he went as far as he may
have gone, that rug landed him with
in a foot of where he started from. He
says it was a wonderful exhibition of
landing, and he wishes he had been
awake to see it, but he wasn't; his
spirit, as Philharmonic says, was in
psychic realms"
He says he never enjoyed anything
in his life as he enjoyed that flight,
but that he feels that he has proved
that magic carpets really do all that
is claimed for them and that the real
student of psychic phenomena know
when they have had enough. When
thing is proved it Is proved, and it
is foolish to go on proving it. So, in
