Ilss Daphne DamonSs Luncheon.

Seventeen young society girls, be-
longing to the younger set, enjoyed
the luncheon that was presided over
by Miss Daphne Damon, yesterday
afternoon. This attractive young girl
leaves shortly for California, where
she will continue her studies nj Mills

were three tables. Each table was
arranged with a half dozen covers
that were marked with unique and
pretty luncheon favOrs, with the name
card attached. The favors consisted
of hands fashioned out of green crepe
paper; the receptacle was filled with
candies; between the forefiDger and
thumb was held bunch of yellow
daisies. The color scheme for the
entire luncheon was In yellow. In
the center of each table was French
basket, filled with daisies in this
shade. After luncheon each guest
was given u clay bubble pipe and diff
ferent colored materials. The idea
was that each one Of the young girls
was to display her ingenuity by dress
ing the pipe in fashionable women's
wearing apparel, and the result of
the work was judged and the one
who had succeeded In producing the
most stylish costume and the one de-
signing a ludicrous toilette were
awarded prizes. The first prize was
silver after dinner coffee spoon,
and was won by Miss Thelma Roth
well. Miss Thelma carried off the
prize for the funniest costume and
was presented with mechanical toy
that promoted much mirth. Those
present were Miss Daphne Damon,

Before the proceedings OF the Twelfth
assembly shall have become ancient
history, and some of the most inter-
esting incidents connected Herewith
are forgotten, it occurs to the River
Press that q few feats of political
heroism performed during the session
deserve mention. There will be a DIFF.
ference of opinion as to the merits of
the various heroic stunts, but at least
three of them were of q character that
excited the admiration of the specta.
tors.
W. B. George, the democratic state
senator from Yellowstone county, may
be considered one of the political he.
roes of the Twelfth assembly. Mr..
George became conspicuous a. the au.

Must Quit Toting Guns.

A new law enacted by the Twelfth
assembly makes the carrying of con.
cealed weapons a felony, punishable
by a fine not exceeding $500, impris'
onment in the county Jail not exceed.
ing six months, or Imprisonment In
the penitentiary not exceeding five
years, at the option Of the jury trying
the case.
The purpose of the law is to dis.
courage theigun packing habit, a Gus
tom th q t occasionally results in dead.
~ assaults, homicides, or murders.
The new law, which amends section
1852 Of the revised codes of Montana,
reads as follows:
"Section l. That section 1852 OF
the Revised Codes of Montana of 1906
be amended 90 as to read as follows:
"Section 1852. Every person who

man had better qualifications. Or
several occasions during the ballotine
for senator, when q member of the as
sembly cast his vote for Mr.. George,
the latter protested that be was moi
even q receptive candida ate for sena'
torial honors and begged that the vote
be transferred to Mr.. Walsh. This
was q fine exhibition of political hero.
ism that attracted more or less CON.

Another heroic stunt was that OF
Ronald Higgins, the insurgent repub.
lican representative from Missoula
county, who throughout the session
al an obstacle to some OF the plans
of the lobbyists and machine polit,.
cisns. Mr.. Higgins most brilliant
achievement was the prevention of an
adjournment Of the joint session with.
out eleeting q United States senator
to succeed Mr.. Carter. Three demo.
cratic members Joined with the oppo-
sition to force an adjournment,
when MI. misunderstanding what he
believed to be . crooked political
desl-decided to defeat the scheme.
By changing his vote to the democrat.
ic side, Mr.. Higgins prevented adj.
journment and enabled the assembly
to complete tie work In the senatorial
matter. The Missouls representative
should be entitled to q place Ia the
political hero class In this connection.
But Messrs. George and Higgins
must stand aside while Larry Dobell,
democratic representative from Silver
Bow county, is placed In the limelight
as one of the political heroes of the
assembly. Mr.. Dobell, be it
known. is the close personal friend
