COMMERCIAL CLUB MEETING.

The citizens of Malta met at the
City Hall last Friday night to hear a
talk from Mr. McCroskey, secretary
of the Havre Chamber of Commerce
with reference to reorganizing the
commercial club at this place. He
was loud in his praise of Malta and
vicinity and thinks the prospects for
the growth of this place is without
end. He touched on several timely
and interesting subjects. among
them the possibility of an alfalfa
mill, better roads, and the drilling
for gas and oil. He pointed out
where the people of this locality
could err very easily by letting out
side capital come in and grab off the
oil and gas fields. He is of the opin-
ion that the people of this place
should do their own prospecting.
He gave an outline of how the
Commercial Club of Havre did road

JUSTICE COURT DOINGs.

Justice Wilson's court was busy
Saturday forenoon with the case of
the State of Montana VS.. John Hun
eke, in which Otto Munson was the
complaining witness. The case
comes from a fight staged at or near
the Black Coulee school house early
in February at which time Mr.. Mum
son received the worst of the fracas
and at the trial Saturday the State
received the same dose administered
to Mr.. Munson. 1t appears from the
evidence introduced by the State
that but two rounds of the mill were
pulled off, but according to the de-
fendant and his witnesses there were
three rounds of the bout and rt is
the complaining witness was unable
to keep accurate count. Following
is the fight by rounds:
Round one.-Huneke comes out
of school house and makes remark
when Munson swings at him with a
lantern Huneke sidesteps and
wards off the blow and returns with
stiff punch to the head. Both men
cllnch and go to the ground, Mun-
son underneath splitting savegely.
Both men get up. This is Huneke's S
round.
Round 2. Munson sheds his
clothes and wants to get at Huneke
and leads the fight, each Of the con-
testants sparring for an opportunity
to do effective work Another clinch
and both men down in the snow
with Huneke again on top and both
men scratching. Munson says
"enough," and is let up. Huneke's S
round.
Round 3.-Munson puts on his
clothes and Huneke goes into school

In place of sp1endor or show Or those of a 1owlier grade, Wherever you happen to go,
 In temples of pleasure or trade, The women are. found on parade In fashions that dazzle and strike, But, somehow, it can't be gainsaid, They all look exactly alikeI They pass you in row upon row, , In nattiest plumage displayed; The rich and the poor and the low, The old and the young and the staid, Not one from the pattern has strayed And seen from afar down the pike, This truth you can hardly evade- They all look exactly alike! The dowager, fifty or so,
 The spinster, beginning to fade, The debutante, young and agloW, Are all in one fashion 'arrayedi Their hats are a similar hade; Their skirts have a similar hike; Their shoes are the same kind of

MULES ALMOST
 INDISPENSABLE IN
 ALPINE CAMP AICN
Five Mile Trains of Animals Common Sight In Noun
 tain District.

Headquarters of the Italian Army. June 8.-The black line of loaded pack mules, each led by an Alpine soldier, is one of the strangest sights to be met in the mountain war zone. On busy days tn slime may sometimes be seen vending it's way from a val ley five miles distant up the mountain passes to peaks ten thousand feet high.
 The mt1e is at once the glory and the backbone of the mountain trans portation system of the Italian array. It is particularly useful because it is unafraid. Itself bred in the noun tains, often growing under the very noses of volcanoes and used to graz ing while earthquakes threaten, at the front it hardly bricks it's ears at artil- 1ery noises.
 It is estimated that upwards of 25O,0oO mules are ing service in the war zone. The most of them comes from the Abruzzi mountains in the central part of Italy, but they have been requisitioned from every part of the Kingdom, even from Sicily and Sardina, together with their two- wheeled carts painted with scenes of provincial history.
 To this mule in the early part of the war Italy hitched much of her hauling and carrying and to-day, with plenty of fine roads and new bridges in the war zone,. the mule still keeps pace with the automobile, the narrow gauge railway and the airline rail- ways of the high mountains.
 This little mule, eleven to thirteen hands high, often hardly as large a Texas pony, is different from other mules, burros, and evi1-tempered beasts. For one thing, it isn't stub born. It doesn't flop back it's ears, and 1unge out with both heels, like it's American brother. It is a patient, will ing, hardy, affectionate animal that climbs a snowy mountain pass sure i 1y as a cat on a fence. It is used for carrying up the mountains every ar tic1e form a plank of soft pine to a cannon shell. If the Italians ever get over the mountains, they promise to remember the mule that helped on tIle job

AUCTION BRIDGE FOR TWO.
Interesting Game Devised With Two
 Hands Not Played.
(New York Sun.)

CNew York Sun.)
 When a game is popular, but linn ited to a certain number of players, attempts are always made to adjust it to smaller numbers. Now A. N- Reggie has come out with sugges- tion for playing two-hand auction bridge, which he calls half auction. A good memory seems to be the chief requisite.
 Half auction is played by two play CTS only. The cards are cut and dealt as in four-handed auction. Both play CTS look at their hands assigned to them. Both pairs of hands may be com pared simultaneously for the pur- pose of choosing the one which you wish to play.
 Each player having chosen a hand, the other two hands are abandoned face down. The dealer bids or passes 1 and his opponent has the same privi- lege. The player who fails to win the final bid has the lead.
 Each trick consists of two cards, one card from each player
 Honors count the value of one trick of the suit declared 10 for each ace in no trump. Four or five honors in one hand or four aces in one hand count the same as fin auction. HOnOrs in the discarded hands do not count.
 The rest of the scoring of games, rubber penalties or bonuses, etc, is the same in regular auction. It will surprise most players to dis cover what interesting situations will | arise in this game. When play starts each player knows what cards are against him and he can vary his bid to mislead his opponent. He can make bluff bids retain unexpected strength. He can size up the oppon- ent's most likely bid and retain the hand most likely to defeat it, even at the expense of throwing away a much | stronger hand for offense, etc.

BRITISH SOLDIERS
 TO EXPERIENCE
 WIVES AFTER WAR
Difference in Language Aid Rather Than Barrier
 To Courting.

British Headquarters in France June 8.-One of the results of the presence of the British army in France is that a good many of the British soldiers will take French wives home with them. The difference in language, far from being barrier, is an acces- sory. Tommie Atkins teaches Miss France English, and Miss France teaches TomnnIe Atkins French.
 There is plenty of leisure for the courtship to develop. Frequently Brit ish battaliOns remain in the same sec ton for months at time. When the men have done their shift in the trenches they return, "in rest" as the saying goes, to the same villages WI ere they were before. Usually they have quarters in the French houses. In sense they become mem hers of the community.
 With the French men folk away the British soldier lends hand with any heavy work which requires a mans strength. Only to-day the cores pondent saw a. British soldier drawing a harrow. A feminine hand does some sewing or cooking for him in return. The romantic atmosphere is not lacking. When the Briton says t'au revoir'' to his sweetheart and starts for the trenches he may never come back; and he is going to fight for France.
 On Sunday afternoons the girls are out in their best frocks as they are anywhere else in the world, and walk ing with them along the roads and lanes are men in khaki; their conver- sations are a mixture of French and English.
 It is not romance alone that leads the BritOn to marry in France. He has learned to admire the thrift and cleverness of the French woman and her industry in taking the place of her fathers and brothers who are at the front

VETERAN WEATHER OBSERVER OF N. Y.
 DEAD OF APOPLEXY
Francis Long Had Distinguish ed Record In Service In
 Indian Wars.

New York, June 9.-F'rancis Long, who for years watched the clouds from a window on the twenty ninth floor of the Whitehall Building, who ras bent over charts and te1egraphic reports of temperatures and baromet- ric pressures in order that the city might know the next morning what weath CT to expect, died at his home yesterday. He had been connected with the Weather Bureau for thirty two years. and for the most recent of them had been official weather fore caster for this district.
 On Sunday night a watchman mo- ticed that the lights in MT. Longs office were out. Investigating, he found the forecaster unconscious on the floor, stricken with apopIexy. He was removed to Volunteer Hospital.
 Mr. Long. who was sixty-four years old, lived at 1910 Decatur Street, Brooklyn. He was born in Germany in 1852 and received his early educa- ton there. Joining the United States Signal Corps, he was one of the n1G-e accepted for the Greeley Polar eXpe- dition, and suffered with that party until it's rescue. In many of the his tories of the unfortunate Greeley voy- age he is lcredited with having twice saved those who were brought back, first by killing a bear on which they fed for more than a week, and then bv signalling the rescue party as it was about to pass the exhausted and almost dying members of the expedi- tion.
 During the expedition under Gen. Custer against the Indians, MT. Long was detailed as dispatch rider, and was sent with the famous appeal to Gen. Reno for reinforcemen ents. Be- cause of the danger MT. Long asked that he be permitted to make the ride alone He reached Gen. Reno's en- campment, but that officer decided to wait until the next morning before moving forward. In the meantime Gen. Clusters force was surrounded and annihilated.
 MT. Long was the first to arrive on the battlefield and was able to find and his principal officers. Afterward Mr. Long took part in the Baldwin Ziegler Polar expedition.
