that the Christmas gifts OF kings anal
queens are wonderful porcelain bowls fun

English magazine which has collected in

very much like what Broker John Smith

William W. Fliess. Ir.. was the host Of
the newsboys. and q smile Of pleasure
showed the boys he enjoyed their Will
iugness and capacity for his hospitality
An annual Christmas dinner had been
provided by the late William VI F1ess.
and his son has decided to continue the
custom IN memory OF his father
There were no fOrmahlies TO Cramp the
boys OF 10 dampon boo the least their
arduous anticipation Of food Mr. and
Mrs Fliess and q small number Of their
friends were present when the dining
room was thrown open. and the boys
took their places al the tables just a
few kindly words from Mr. Fliess. and
the boys began to attack the stacks Of
food that were placed before them
I'm the course Of an hour $50 boys were
fed, and each OF them took away oranges
ana box OF candy that had been
supplied as d special offering Later
many of them attended a little entertain
ment arranged entirely for their amusc-
ment
The day brought also small special gifts
TO the boys VINO live in the lodging hotse.
Each of the one hundred and Afty boys
received necktic in decorated box. just
to make them feel that Santa Claus ex-
listed for them, too.
Joseph VI. Fisher. superintendent Of the
lodging house, had charge of the boys
during the evening. He was extremely
we'll pleased with the behavior Of his
flock. and his only regret seemed to he
that the institution was not many times
larger The good work done could not
he appreciated without constant contact
with boys, ne said. and statistics could not
convey a real impression Of how mucn
help was daily extended TO newsboys.
The most interesting class Of the BOYS
were the runaways. Mr. Fisher said. and
on the average two OF them find Their
way 20 the lodging house every day. No
effort is made TO get from them their
names or home addresses They are left
alone for a while and then slowly sounded
as to their history Usually the boy
gives his name and the address Of his
parents within week. and he is then

The runaway boys come mostly from

MOOSE INITIATE
A LARGE CLASS
Local Order Had One of the BIGGEST
Times in its History Monday
of This Week.

Monday was IA red letter. day
for the Loyal Order of Moose,
Lodge No. III. Preparations had
been in progress for the initiation
of a large class of new members
for sometime, and the work was
commenced at about + o'clock in
the afternoon, eighteen new mem
bers having made application to
join the order. The new members
who took the work are as follows:
l.. {. Somers, p. A YerXa, Louis
Distasch, ID. j. Mckinley, c. w.
Bradford, d. X. Bannister, Earnie
Owens, VIM. Perry, M. NJ. Min
ton and John Laisy, of this city;
V. V. Van Osdal, j. p. Wagner,
/. b. Niles, Claude B. Potter,
Fred Barnett, and John Berens,
Of Selby, and l.. b. Ness, OF Miles
City. 1t was expected that fifteen
from Selby would take the work,
but owing to the various causes
which prevented them from leav-
ing home, eight were unable to
take the work. However, they
will be initiated at a later date.
The work of initiation was not
completed until about 4 o'clock
Tuesday morning. An abundance
of good things to eat aud refresh
ments had been provided and the
bowling alleys were reserved for
the members of the order and the
class during the evening. The
work of initiation was interspersed
with social intercourse at intervals
during the night and everyone
present was entertained in a loyal
manner.
The Loyal Order of Moose is
one OF the most prominent and
largest secret societies in point of
membership in the city, and with
the addition of this large class now
has a membership of about one
hundred in good standing. Finan-
cially, the order is in excellent
condition and its members display
a deep interest in its general well
fare, which fact is responsible for
the great success of Monday night.

Railroad companies always as
sign their best engineers On loco
motives that pull the officers
trains because of insuring safety
as far as possible. States that
have a reputation of having big
men in congress enjoy that reputa-
ton by reason of continuing their
best men on the Legislative engine.
For this eason the people of the
second congressional district will
vote for Chas. H. Burke in June
because he is the kind Of an en-
gineer that gets recognition for
his constituents down ut Washing
ton and they will not vote to put
a fiagman in his place simply be-
cause he is waving a pamphlet
that belongs at home and is not
an issue down at Washington to
stop the South Dakota influence of
