A net profit ol s7 today shows in the monetary record of the recent Music Festival in Ketchikan, with the $768 expenses offset by SITS in assets.

 MT. Miller announces that on the first night of the trip to Ket- chikan, resident of Cordova do- mated s25 to the group. stating that he enjoyed making the trip with the students.

Boom! Boom! Laurel
Apiarist Bags Queen
Bee With Shotgun
Workmanship: Laurel man bags
queen bee with shotgun.

Workmanship: Laurel man bags
queen bee with shotgun.
Such was the word given out by
A. N. Norton, Laurel beekeeper, who
recently told of returning a colony of
bees to its hive after it had swarmed
atop q tree near his apiary. He shot
into the swarm with a shotgun and
killed the queen and several other bees
in the swarm. With the queen dead,
the swarm returned to its hive.
Mr.. Norton's predicament is one of
many being suffered by beekeepers in
this area as wet weather has confined
bees to their hives for several days
in a row. only to have them fly away
and swarm far from their hives when
the sun appears.
The wet spring caused bees to null
tiply rapidly in their hives, local api-
artists report, and the hives become
o~vercrowded. With the event of warmer
and brighter weather, the bees take
their queen and desert the hive. No
end Of difficulty Is encountered in hiv-
Ing them again, beekeepers say.

Clark obtained the floor end, after
denying the charges of fraud and COL
fusion which had been made against
him, announced that he had resigned
and that his resignation was at that
time in the hands of the governor of
Montana. That was on May II, 1900.
The senator's action, of course, headed
off action by the senate upon the COM
mittee report.
The governor of Montana was Robert
B. Smith. He at that particular time
was absent from the state and Lieuten-
ant Governor A. E: Spriggs was acting
governor. On May IL, 1900, Spriggs ap-
pointed Senator Clark to succeed him
self as senator. Smith, upon his return
to the state, declared Spriggs appoint
ment of Clark invalid, and named Mai.
Martin Maginniss to the post. Major
MaginniSS went to Washington with
his credentials, but the senate refused
to seat him. Clark presented his new
credentials, and they were given no
o consideration than those of
Maginniss had received. AS a result the
seat in the senate remained vacant
for a year.
In the campaign in the fall of 1900,
Clark again took an active part with
the senate again his goal. Enough Of
his friends were elected to the legis-
lature to give him a toehold in the
assembly and he was eventually elected
over Thomas n. Carter, republican, by
g vote Of Sc to 80. The celebration

DAILY had plenty Of it to spend; Clark
Present-day Montanans who are ia
miliar only with the latter day de-
velopment of the state, may visualize
how far it has come since 1894 by the
fact that Helena was chosen by 27,O24
votes as against 25,118 for Anaconda,
and there were mighty few voters in
the state who failed to cast their ballots
upon the question.
A total of 52,142 votes! There are
counties with that many votes in them
today, and this was a statewide ballot
upon a question in which there was
keen interest and following a campaign
which stirred every nook and Granny
of the state.
Clark was again a candidate for
United States senator at the legislative
session of 1899, and was elected. But
there were bitter charges of fraud
made in connection with this election,
and after a long hearing before the
senate committee. on privileges and
elections, that body drew up a report
for submission to the senate, however,

Empty champagne bottles were
hauled away from the downtown bars
and hotels by the drayload. Senator
Clark's bill for the nights festivities
never was known exactly, but it was
estimated by men who knew what they
and $4,000. One downtown saloon alone
put in a bill for $4,000 and had. empty
bottles to show for it.
Champagne that night trickled down
threats that never before felt the
touch of the cooling fluid, and tickled
palates which had heretofore thought
of exclusive indulgence.
Many of the visitors and members
of the legislature from the hills and
ranges Of Montana, guided only by
their whisky drinking experiences, got
the idea after a first few glasses
that this harmless beverage, cham
payne, could be quaffed like so much
water. And so they quaffed it.
In the hotels the next day, from early
morning until long in the afternoon,

demon rum. He was told by some of
his companions that the champagne
which was being served to them was
sweet cider. He tasted the pretty tinted
liquor, and believed 1t.
Cider! Well, he wasn't opposed to
that. His code permitted cider. He re-
turned to his hotel in the early morn
ing hours, a rip roaring, bowling, ribald
singing reprobate.
Senator Clark undoubtedly figured
that the celebration was worth all
it cost him, for. as stated, it eliminated
eleven years of political effort which
to that time had been unavailing.
Clark's first appearance as a .candi;;
date in the Montana political field
was shortly after the admission of
the territory to statehood in 1889. The
first session of the legislature after
the state was admitted to the union,
elected two United States senators.
Clark was a candidate for n of the
posts. The legislature was split on the
proposition. One faction elected Clark
and Major Martin Maginniss senators,
one for the long and one for the short
term. The other faction elected Col.
