COURT GETS READY
FOR SENSATION
JUDGE PATTERSON ISSUES SPE-
CIAL VENIRE FOR THE ROM
NEY LIBEL SUITS.

Hamilton, March 2S.-(Special.)-
The case of f.. G. Bader against
George lBurtis, a suit on a debt, came
up If the district court this morning
with Judge Patterson occupying the
bench. This afternoon the case was
settled by stipulation of attorneys,
each party to the suit settling his
costs. With the settlement of this case
the jurymen were excused until next
Wednesday morning, when the first
of the Western News Libel suits, that
of O. C. Cooper against Miles Romney,
will come up for trial. The verdict in
this case will practically settle the two
companion cases to this suit, those of
John Treece and Newton Tillman
against Romney, as the three cases are
identical. 1t is expected that these
suits will crowd the court room with
interested spectators.
Because of anticipated difficulty in
getting a jury for these cases, Judge
Patterson this afternoon drew a spe-
cial venire of 40 jurymen to report
next Wednesday morning.
The divorce case of Katherine Place
against Harry Place was tried in the
district court today, Judge Patterson
t; king the case under advisement.

ROOT EGGS
AND CHICKS
PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT FOR A
LIBERAL SUPPLY THROUGH
THE SEASON.

~Stevensville, March 2S.-CSpecial)-
The following statistics of the eek
pected' poultry business for the pres
ent year in S~tevensville will be cheer
ing news to all inhabitants who live
between here and Missoula. In the
first place the supply of eggs that will
be available during the months when
the commodity is usually short will be
ample to supply the home market, on
account of the expert method of keep
ing the product in cold storage which
is being used by Manager John G.
Howe of the S~tevensville creamery.
There are being received at the
creamery every day many cases of
eggs that are strictly fresh in every
sense of the word, and these eggs will
be kept in cold storage in such perfect
manner that text December will,
comparatively speaking, be like May
as far as the egg market is concerned.
You won't have to be just contented
with having lots of eggs, but every
body will be able to take home with
him the real acknowledged Bitter Root
spring chicken, or chickens, for there
are, presumably, going to be lots of
them, as the following figures will
show: Nineteen i~ncubators sold to
date, with a total capacity for hatch
Ing 1886 chickens; three matches from
each incubator gives 11,50S chickens
from the new incubators alone; from
old and other ~incubators, estimated
number so, with an average capacity
of 200 each, 5000 chickens; from three
hatchings, $4,000; total, '29,50S chick
ems from the vicinity of Stevensville
alone. Added to this should be fig
ured the other towns of the valley,
and from all reports they are as ac-
lively Matching chickens as this town,
would swell the figures to such pro-
portions that it will convince everyone
that from now on there should be no
shortage in ths egg and poultry mar
ket.
During the past month the general
topic of conversation was almost en-
tirely of chickens. Many of the promi-
nent business men have industriously
worked with i~ncubators, and have, as a
result, a splendid average of patches
for their time, which was spent both
in pleasure and for profit.
Interest in the next poultry show,
which, however, will not be held for
several months yet, has assumed such
a stage that it is safe to predict at
his time that there will be 1000 birds
exhibited at the next show, and
amongst these will be some of the
classiest specimens that ever grew
feathers. Officers of the next poultry
show have been elected, n the work
of arranging the premium list is being
prosecuted and details for successful
holding of the show is well under
way.

LOGGING CONTRACT
ADVERTISED
HAMILTON is INTERESTED IN
LUMBER COMPANY'S CALL FOR
BIDS FOR THE WORK.

Hamilton, March 2S.-(Special.)-In
a local newspaper today there appears
a notice to logging contractors, in
which the Anaconda Copper Mining
company asks for bids for the cutting
and loading onto cars of all the stand
ing timber and down m~erchantable
saw logs IN $3.50 acres located on Tin
Cup n Mccoy creeks above Darby.
Bids for the work will be received
up to April IS, 1913, n the successful
bidder will be required to furnish a
bond in the sun of 100000 for the
faithful fulfillment of the contract. 1t
is understood that the contractor will
be allowed two years in which to de-
liver the logs, estimated at about So
900, 900 feel.
This call for bids points to the fact
that lumber operations in the Bitter
Root will be eSumed by the Anaconda
Copper Mining company this summer;
also that the contract for the cutting
of this timber had not been let, as had
been announced in at least two papers
in circulation here. The letting Of this
contract will mean that the local saW-
mill will be provided with logs for
more than a t~WO-years' run.

but she, not being of royal birth, is re-
iected by his subjects as the dueen-to-
be. They decide to elope, and go as
far as the wood surrounding the pal
ace, when the owl discovers he has
forgotten the ring. They dare not &C
back after it, and confide in Indy
who tells them of a brass ring In the
nose Of a pig in the Land of Bong

The kings subjects discover his abb
sence, and decide to choose the first
stranger in the court as future ruler,
This is B~osephus, a peddler of sus-
penders, who ascends the throne and
chooses Lindy for his queen. He has
an auction ale in the throne room to
get rid of his stock, which displeases
the chief councillor, who orders a tank
to be built in Which they are to be set
afloat on Slumber sea. The timely re-
turn of the Owl and the Pussy pre-
vents this, and they decide to avoid
more trouble by going back to Wheel

IMPROVEMENT PLAN
IS UP AGAIN
HAMILTON CITY COUNCIL CON-
SlDERS CEMENT SIDEWALKS
ON THREE STREETS.

Hamilton. March 2S.-(Special.)- AT
a specla. meeting of the city council
last evening, City Attorney Il. o. John
son was authorized to draw up {. reso-
luton creating special Improvement
district No. 8. The resolution will be
presented at the regular April meeting
of the council and acted upon. A pc
Triton asking that the district be
was presented to the council
Ny I'll. IS. Lord, who was requested by
The council to present a map of the
proposed district to the city attorney
as soon as possible. The district as
explained to the council by Mr. Lord
will include both sides of Second.
Third, Fourth and Fifth streets be-
tween Main street and the south limits
of the city. First street is also in
clnded in the demand, but as all de-
sired walks are now constructed on
that street it is likely it will not be
included in the resolution. Mr.. Lord
stated that there had been some talk
IN the district in favor of including
some of the cross, or east and west
streets. This matter will be decided
at the next meeting. There seems to
tbe an insistent demand for the crea-
ton of the district, Mr.. Lord stating
That he had not met with a single OBJ
lection to the district.
Ihe council ~canvassed the vote cast
in the three wards of the city at the
primaries for nominations for alder
manic candidates held here recently.
h results were found to be as re-
ported recently in The Missoulian.
City Engineer e. III. Blakeslee was
present and announced that he had
started survey work in special i'm
provement district No. 2, and had
found that many trees on North Sec
ond street would AVE to be cut down
III the walks We're laid according to
present plans. This matter was given
considerable discussion. The street
and alley committee was instructed to
wait upon property owners on that
street to find out if they would be
willing to give two feet off the front
of their lots to allow the street trees
to remain.
1t was pointed out during the meet
ing that the insurance on the city hail
would lapse within a few days. by
motion it was voted to insure again
for $4,000, giving George Reese author
ity to write a policy for $4,000 and
Johnston Bros. the remaining $4,000.

A Little Talk
About Values

You value things by their usefulness beauty, intrinsic
worth, sentimental worth, or historic worth. You value most
of the things you buy first by their utility and second by their
pleasing qualities.
# Some things are intended for service. others simply to look
at and admire, while many things have both a useful and
ornamental value.
Take two articles alike in form but much different in
quality. One may be a real bargain at a dollar while the
other would be dear at fifty cents. The reason for this is
that the article Of superior quality will give three or four
times the service, wear, satisfaction and usefulness. In order
to get the best value that money can buy, one must exercise
Judgment.
It You need have little doubt, however. of the values offered
by the merchants who advertise in THE MISSOULIAN.
These merchants are known by the values they give. They
know that a reputation for honest values is their most vall-
able asset and strive to give their customers the greatest values
ohta1nable. Read their advertisements in THE MIS-
SOuLlAN closely and constantly every day and then you will
have little need to worry about values.

Greatest Value

For One Penny
BY JOHN p. FALLON

The power of a penny is
truly wonderful when one
considers what it will buy.
1t will buy an evenings
entertainment. 1t will buy
pages of cleverly written
incidents h a ppe ing

will buy complete stories of
adventures i'll the daily lives
of men and women. 1t will
buy comics and ludicrous
features that bring happi-
ness to declining years and
erase the fingermarks of
time from wrinkled brows.
1t will buy the latest news
of theaterdon. the successes
OF the operate stage, the

No Cause for Anxiety.

The promptness with which changes in
the personnel of the assistant postmasters
general are being considered has been
the cause of much uneasiness in the rank
and file of the department. who seem
much perturbed over the slogan OF the
oncoming hosts, "A clean sweep" But
IL Mr.. McArd,e's statements ,oaay renee,
the views of the Postmaster General, and
it is generally believed they do. there
seems to be little cause for anxiety in
the clerical force, at least, and probably
not much as far as the efficient superin-
tendants and chiefs are concerned.
1t will probably be several weeks be-
fore lesser appointments can be given
consideration, for it seems to be the pur-
pose of Postmaster General Burleson to
make his administration OF the depart
ment a. thoroughly efficient one.
Callers who desire to see the Postmas-
ter General "at once pour into his re-
ception room and each is promptly given
to understand he Is welcome, whether
his mission can be fulfilled for him or
not. Mr. McAr1le seems to make special
effort to prevent any one from going
away until he has received a cordial well
come and had the chance to state his
business. This method OF doing business,
he said, might require a longer time to
get down to regular routine, but 1t was
the Postmaster Generals wish to have
1t SO.
