the commercial club and there will be
no confusion in the assignment of
quarters when the guests arrive.
The committee or decorations will
make the large entrance and front of
the commercial club gay with stream
ers and bunting and an immense arch
way of baled hay will be placed in the
street Immediately in front of the
building, under which the visitors will
pass to the main entrance where they
will be met by a committee of greet
ers," delegated from the commercial
club membership and selected because
of their peculiar fitness as handshak-
ers and good fellows. In the social
hall of the club room a roast pig lunch
con will be served each noon of the
convention. The pigs for this lunch
con r being furnished by a local
packing company and expert caterers
will be in charge of the men and the
serving of the same.
President F. B. Connolly Of the COM
mercial club, who has been spending
the winter in California, is hurrying
home to be present at this convention
and will deliver the address of welcome
at the commercial club rooms. Com
mittee assignments have all been made
and members are assuming their duties
with much enthusiasm and the determ-
ination to leave nothing undone to en-
terrain the visitors in a royal manner.
The lounge of the clob rooms will be
the scene of gay activities during the
evenings of the convention. Special
entertainers have been engaged and
vaudeville stunts, music by a jazz
band, skits of pretty entertainers and
other features have been arranged for.
The city will be a blaze of light at
night and a scene of picturesque gay
ETY. during the day, with an elaborate
dcheme Of decorations planned I'M
precedented in the history of the city.
Gall roads will lead to Billings on
April goth and 21st," according to the
committee in charge and those who
miss this big event will regret it.
Mayor Lee Mains stated today: "The
key of the city will be turned over to
the. Livestock Mems association or
April goth and 21st, with instructions
to hide it or throw it in the river. We
propose to give these people the time
Of their young lives and the reputation
of this city for hospitality, good cheer
and good fellowship will be maintain
ed. We consider it an honor to en-
terrain them and we will leave nothing
undone to make their stay pleasant"

"Makine Good" Is
Habit of Gen. Wood

as his managers claim-the other can
didates fairly SILVER at the running
start it might give Wood. They be-
gan to talk that way a week ago in
New York and Washington.
Plain, Blunt Soldier.
General Wood is a plain, blunt SOL
der, who talks in short, jolly SEN
fences. Every sentence packs an idea.
He holds his audiences without any
of the usual arts of the platform or
ator. He stands up and in a clear,
carrying voice clips out his remarks
without a gesture, his hands generally
behind his back, occasionally his right
punching an idea home. Men who
have been with him throughout his
trips say never in an audience is there
coughing OF scuffling of feet, nothing
but keen edged attention to a speak
er who seems to be in deadly earnest.
In Fine Physical Fettle.
In conversation his utterance is the
same-short, crisp, pithy, no excess
baggage on any of his sentences. He
has a chest like a barrel, a massive
face, and a steel blue eye. His en-
durance is remarkable. On one of his
Dakota trips he went seventy-two

other leading candidates. They have
been content apparently to have him
we'll out in front on the theory that
the top man always makes a target.
OF late their views as to this appear
to have undergone a change-they are
becoming suspicious that Wood may
have been collecting more delegates
than brickbats. The Wood managers
have been loudly predicting that they
will go into the Coliseum with some
300 delegates on the first ballot, that
the second choice men and the band
wagoners will come along on the Sec
ond and that in a short time Wood
will get the necessary majority.
Predict Strength Will Wane.
Those outside the Wood camp are
incredulous over this. They say 800
votes will be about the generals lin
it, and although he may be leading
candidate on the first ballot, his
strength will wane instead of grow.
If Wood should carry Michigan, then
make a good showing in Ohio against
Senator Harding, who is reported to
have been slipping for three weeks
past, and in Illinois against Gov. Low
den, and gets a majority in Indiana,

hours with only nine hours sleep and
at the end kept an appointment by
driving through a blizzard on a hand
car. On his trips he exercises sitting
down.
On the train he goes through muscle
fleXing exercises without moving in
his seat. And he is mentally ambi-
d%extrous," to use the phrase of a news
paper correspondent who travelled with
him for six weeks-he can dictate to
a s~tenographer and talk to a visitor
at the same time without getting his
correspondence and his conversation
mixed up. Eighteen hours a day at
his desk is a usual thing with him.
General Woods American stock
goes back to Plymouth Rock. He was
born in New Hampshire in 1860 and
spent his early years on Cape Cod.
At "a he was graduated from the Har-
ward medical school, and his first SER
vices were given gratuitously to the
poor of Boston.

surgeon and was assigned in 1885 to

(Arthur M. Evans in Chicago Tribune)
Major General Leonard Wood shines
particularly as an organizer and ex-
ecutive. His managers point to Cuba
and the Philippines as monuments to
his administrative ability. They throw
the stress on this phase Of his car-
eel and shout in their campaign lit
erature that he has wider and more
diverse administrative experience than
any other member of the G. o. P. col
lege of candidates.
Theodore Roosevelt once wrote that
General Wood "has rendered services
to Cuba of a kind which, if performed
5000 years ago, would have made him
a hero mixed up with the sun god in
various ways"
Wins Praise of BritOn.
Lord Cromer, when asked who was
best fitted to succeed himself as vi
ceroy in Egypt, remarked that the best
equipped man was unavailable because
he was ian American citizen named
Leonard Wood" His appeal to the
voters is not as a soldier alone, but
as a Soldier statesman"
Up to the present General Wood has
been a sort of pace maker for the

A REAL CITIZEN.

The real Glasgow citizen has vision;
he is not lacking in progressiveness;
he is keen of mind and vigorous in ac-
ton; he is ready to cooperate with the
Chamber of Commerce in what it
seeks to accomplish for the upbuilding
of the city in which he lives; he will
attend public gatherings at which civ
ic movements are to be discussed; he
will make himself an integral part OF
the city; he will contribute of his time,
his money, his talent to that which is
sought to be accomplished, he will be
patriotic at all times, a willing work
err, a jealous promoter, a doer of
things, a builder and not a dreamer.

SMOKES THEM UP
BUT MISSES MARK

George C~openhaver, who resides a
short distance east of Hinsdale, was
arrested on complaint of his brother,
F. E. Copenhaver, on Tuesday morn
ing to answer a charge Of assault
with a dangerous weapon, having fir
ed three shots at Jim Mcneil and F.
E. Copenhaver Monday morning while
they were crossing his place, says the
Hinsdale Tribune.
He was given a hearing in the JUS
tice court at Hinsdale on Tuesday
morning and pleaded guilty to the
charge, and was taken to Glasgow to
await the action of the district court.
He is said to have shot at other
parties in the past and is believed to
be mentally unsound, as there had
been no trouble between him and the
complainants prior to the shooting.

SPECIAL TRAINS WILL
Be RUN TO CONVENTION
Special Trains Carrying Prominent
Livestock Experts From Omaha,
Great Falls and Helena Will Ar
rive in Billings on the 10th.

Billings, April ia telegraph mes
sage received today from E. R. Price,
now at Omaha, Nebraska, chairman of
the general committee on arrange
ments for the Livestock association
convention, to be held here on April
goth and 21st, states that ne has as
surance from the big packing interests
there, as we'll as railroad officials, that
a delegation of at least m hundred
prominent men may be expected here
for the convention. They are coming
in special coaches and will arrive in
Billings on the 10Th, prepared to re-
main over for the two days conven-
ton.
The commercial club has arranged
a luncheon for these visitors to be held
at the Billings Midland cafe, now the
property of the commercial club, and
overs will be laid for about one hun
dred and fifty. This will be prelim-
mary to the big convention and will
serve to introduce this advance delega-
ton to stockmen of this vicinity.
Advices from different sections of
the state indicate that special trains
will be run here from Great Falls and
Helena and that every city of any size
and Importance will send a large dele
cation. A special committee on hous-
ing is making every effort to plan for
accommodations for these visitors and

HIGH SCHOOL OPERETTA
PROVES DECIDED SUCCESS

The spirit Of spring was expressed
in both the theme and setting of the
operetta, "The Witch of Fairy DELL"
given by the Glasgow high school glee
club under the able direction of Miss
Powell, supervisor of music, on Tues
day evening, April 6. This is the first
of the annual spring series of enter
tainments given by the local high
school. The new piano, for the pay
ment of which the operetta was given,
was used for the first time in a public
program.
The action of the play took place on
the village green, at the woodland
abode of the witch, and at the county
fair. The midnight dance of the fair
les and the witch scene were especially
good, and the dramatic action as we'll
as the music was commendable. Those
who took part showed a great deal
of originality and musical ability, as
well as excellent training and direc-
ton.
During the intermission several
pieces were played on the piano, and
Miss Hazel Hurd, accompanied by Miss
Coda Halliday, gave a beautiful solo
dance and song in Japanese costume,
which proved very pleasing to the au-
dience.
The operetta was a success in every
way and a large audience showed its
interest and appreciation. Over a hun.
dred dollars was added to the piano
fund, and the glee club again proved
it's ability to successfully stage a dra.
matte production.
