Helena.-( Bureau)-Hope of the
pioneers of Montana for a historical
library building to be erected on the
state capitol grounds within the next
year may be doomed to disappoint-
ment.
Monday the state board Of examin-
ers is scheduled to receive bids for
the purchase of S250,0O0 bonds au-
thorized for the library building by
the recent legislature. So far no
bids have been received. w. l.. Fitz-
simmons, clerk of the board, has writ
ten to some Of the bond houses rela-
tive to this issue and one for S535,000
to refund capitol bonds, but those that
have replied have indicated that they
are not interested.
The bond houses take the position
that .inasmuch as the bonds would be
secured only by the federal land grant
TO the state and would be no liability
against the state genef al fund, they
do not wish to invest.

CASSIDY CHANGING
 MONOGRAM SYSTEM
Drastic Revision to Be Made iu
 High School Athletics

Definite steps to improve the sys- tenn of athletic monogram awards at the Senior high school is being talk en by Coach George M. Cassidy, who today announced that he is drawing up rules which will bring about drastic changes in the system.
 Coach Cassidy has been under the fire of members of the alumni body for giving out too many letters to players, many of whom, according to the alumni, are not deserving of the honor. The matter was officially brought before the school board by Committeeman William H. Day who said, that 27 letters were given out in the basketball season of nine games. He instigated an investiga- tion and when a letter from Prin- cipal l.. P. Slade which approved MT. Cassidy's system was received at the last board meeting. MT. Day said he was not satisfied and he ask cd for further investigation.
 Coach Cassidy and Principal Slade believed that the school was acting in accordance with its motto in sports, "The greatest good for the greatest number" They felt that by giving letters to the boys it would encourage broader interest in athletics.

Big Still Blows Up While Firemen
 Fiqht Flames in Truszkowsh Barn

Damage was estimated at 3.500. Supernumerary Police Officer Temple was the first man to discov- CT the fire. AS he was passing the structure he noticed smoke curling up from the rear. and upon investi- gation he found flames tapping . pile of dried and routed timbers. Although he tried to overcome the blaze with buckets of water. he was
 unable to do so and telephoned an alarm into the central fire station at 1920. A few minutes later another alarm was turned in from box l%7. It was while the firemen were
 battling the blaze that the still ex- ploded.
 Lines of hose were laid for several hundreds of yards. and to maintain
 water pressure two bumpers were used.
 Despite the work of the fire de. partment, famed by the winds and further augmented by the explosion Of the still. the barn was burned
 down. Although hopes of saving a
 part of the thoroughly dried barn
 were entertained, after the explo- , sion, firemen called the case hope- less.
 The barn was 1858 feet long by .5 feet high. Most of the structure l was of one story except for a sec- 1 ton in the middle. which was some.

No Evidence Plant Was in Operation When Fire Broke Out-Cop Lone Bucket Brigade.

Whether the still located at Trusz- kowski's farm, which exploded when the long. shed-like barn owned by Thomas Truszkowski, 45S Farming ton avenue. was completely destroy ed by fire shortly after noon Sunday was in operation at the time of the fire is the problem which is still puzzling Detective Sergeant McCue and Police Sergeant O'Mara who are investigating the case.
 Shortly after the firemen of No. company arrived at the scene Of the blaze, the still blew up. After the flames had been quenced, the boiler. the tank, and a three-quarter inch coil were found in different parts of the razed structure. Thirty five gallon cans. of the type used to transport alcohol. were also found in the burned barn. Because the tops of the cans were removed, ther. is no evidence that they contained alcohol at the time of the fire.

Washington Society, Op- pressed by Heat, Ready to Leave for Summer as Soon as Possible.

Washington, June 3 Pt-Quest of boon for the farmers and industry is becoming the bane of official so- ciety in the nations capital.
 Ltaders are waiting impatiently for congress to turn from doling out econ6mic relief in the guise of tariff and farm legislation. to provide phy- sical relief in the form of a recess that will make possible escape from the heat and the arduous social du- ties concurrent with the presence of the legislators.
 Women Worn Out
 Tagged from the season which brought new administration officials to be welcomed, the domestic con- tingent of foreign and American of .icialdom alike have been driven to all manner of resort from fatigue.
 Mrs. J. H. Mctcalf. wife of the Rhode Island senator. has set up housekeeping on the Potomac river.
 Sir Esme Howard and Lady 1sa- bella. setting the diplomatic corps and example by deciding to remain throughout the summer, have taken a country estate, and the British ambassador will commute 10 the embassy.
 Mrs. Edward F.. Gam has opened the home she occupied before she became the vice presidents official hostess, and has put down rag rugs for cool comfort during week-ends away from the vice presidential suite in the Mayfiower hotel.
 Normally the capitals social lead- ers would have long since hied to the North Woods. the North Shore. or abroad for the summer. The congress sional ret as a rule departs the mo- ment school vacations start. and the diplomats and their families plan holidays even when they can not go home.
 Custom Years old
 Years ago. it ts being recalled now. Washington was listed abroad as an unhealthy post" and representa- tives here were given an extra ai- lowance for holidays That initiated the custom of leaving the capita' during the summer.
 Since then the tidal basin mas been filled. and the swamps that made the city unhealthfuf removed; and diplomats have observed the rule of remaining as long as the president is in residence. But they have procured summer retreats where they could rest while officially they were in residence in the capital.
 Mrs. Alice Longworth is restively waiting for the end of the session m order that she may go home to Cih- cinnati. Speaker I.ongworth haa planned to go abroad. but the pro tracted session which he himseh has been insisting 20 on until some thing Is accomplished-has forced the project far into the background In their yacht.
