One of the unsigned notes of the National ;Bauk of Montana which were stolen by the train robbers from the Groat Northern express ear at Wagner, July 3, has beon presented for redemption at the treasury do partuient at Washington, and will form the basis of the te9t suit of the bauk against the express company. The bill is for $10 and was received by the Corn Exchange National bank of Chicago, aud by it sent to Wash ington for redemption. Signatures had boen forged ou it in a clumsy manner. The name “Jolm R. Smith” appeared as cashier instead of T. C. Kurtz, and “Thomas B. Hir ----- ” the writ- nanie ending with a scrawl was ten \agaimsT the word “president,” where the uame of Thomas A. Marlow should have boen written. Other uusigued notes have been received at a bauk in New Orloaus. Increase In Population. The final census report on the pop illation of the United States by sex, nativity and color was issued today. It shows that the rnalos number 39,050,242 or 51.2 per cent of the total population of 1900. The increase of 13,233,031 in total population since 1890 is made up of 0,741,179 males and 0,489,452 females, an increase of 20.9 of males uud 21.1'of fomales,, Tho foreign born element has in creased only 12 1 per cent and tho native born population 22 5 per cent since 189p As to color und race the population iu 1900 comprises 60,990,- 802 white persons aud 9,312,585 col ored persons, tho latter comprising 8,840,785 persons of negro descent. The colored eloment as a whole shows an increase of 17.8 per cent siuco 1890. To Sue Tho G o v e rnm e n t. County Clerk„and Recorder Logoni of Flathead countv has sent to Attor ney General Donovan claims to tho amount of $602 36 sustained iu caring for the Creo Indians who were driven off the Flathead reservation while suffering from smallpox, and who, after coming to Kalispoll, were quar antined north of the city. Theclaims are for medical attendance, guards, provision, etc., which were first filed against the county, and which will form the basis for a suit against the national government. The chief bono of contention, ap parently, is whether tho Creo Indians are wards of the United States gov ernment or whether ^they are reno- gades from Canada. If tho former, the government will undoubtedly stand tho cost of taking care of them, but if the latter, the bills incurred by Flathead county will have to be filed against the Canadian government for settlement. It has been generally supposed that the Crees in Moutana fled to this state at the suppression of the Riel rebellion in Canada years ago, and that the United States gov ernment is not responsible for them. The case will be brought to a test as soon as possible and responsibility for the caro of thoso nomads will bo established. H er Death Would Result. O u tbreak U n d e r Control. The Çanadion authorities claim that tho outbreak of anthrax at Swift Current, N. W. T., is now under con trol. The losses so far are about 2,500 head of sheep aud a few cattle and horses. All animals exposed bave boen inoculated with anthrax vaccine by Drs. Hargravo and Hig gins,dominion veterinarians in charge. It Is proposed .that the quarantined district, which includes 17 townships, be burned over. The germs- of this disease are very hard to kill and have been known to remain alive in the ground for nino years, though that is exceptional. Vaccination in thé same manner as for blackleg is a ' good preventative. To D e p o rt M ar Joe.

Spencer Eddy, secretary of tbo United States logation received fur ther adyices that further activity would result.in the death of Miss Stone and at 3 okilock Saturday morn ing he proceeded to the residence of the minister of foreign affnirB, Tef- wick, and demanded the immediate retirement of the Turkish troopp. This was carried out and tho Bulgar ian forces followed suit. Mr. Eddy’s action has the utmost and unanimous approval of the diplo matic -corpB who are convinced that efforts to liberate Miss Stone will infallibly result in murder. Pardon For An Qutlaw. Guthrie, O. T., Oct. 15.—Governor Jenkins has requested of Governor Stanley of Kansas that he pardon Emmet Dalton, a noted outlaw, sen tenced to life imprisonment on ac count of the youth of the prisoner.

BUZZELL, of the M. El Church. T opic .—'-“Tho Social Sorvico of the Church.” Corinth was built 40 B.C. by Julius Caesar aud mado the oapitol of Acbaia. In Paul’s day Corinth was1 a synonym for licentiouness. Hero was the temple of tho goddess Aphro dite supported by 1,000 fullon women. Senator Hoar .in addressing a large gathering of young men at the Boston Y. M:C. A. told them they coîild do nothing more helpful to themselves, ¡iud having a greater powor to make their frieuds think of the, necessity of the-'Christian - life than to talk of their christiau purposes iu the church and words of encouragement, are . spoken to those that .had resolved to,' . be Christians.’ ,The jpeople are so social that it is fifteeu minutes before The great apostle here planted a |' , ¡„ private> and that a great deal church. This church was noted Tor jof gpod;iuIlueDce- is lost becaUH0 o£ its extraordinary spiritual gifts. But its membors, reared in such debusiug environments, were greatly lacking iu moral sensibility, aud tho society was often disgraced by tho grossest immoralities, inconsistencies and ox travagauees. Hence, Paul’s two epistles to them are mostly composed of reproof aud moral instruction. Even their church services were the church is full. All join iu sing- falling into disorder and disrepute. illg a few familiar h y m m whoBB 80uti. the fulso notion that people must keep their religious conviction and ideas to themselves. It- is Thursday night. All the Christian peoplo of Choteau who can consistently leuve their home and business are assembled iu the.church. Tho world cauuot possibly slay away from such a gathoring as this; and In colebratiug tho Lords supper, tnou wore sometimes drunken. Women were disgracing their husbands and the church by appearing in the con gregation with uuvoilod faces which was tho murks of loose character ac cording to tho then customs of society. They woro assuming authority in the public sorvices which was contrary to tho laws of tho city. Tho miracu lous gifts of the spirit woro louding all iuto vainglory und divisions, and because of those things Paul gnve to them und to tho wtrld the vnluuble teaching iu tho text, und content, from which tonight I will druwsoire lessons aud upon which I will build a picturo of a helpful, social and re ligious sorvico. We learu first thut tho sociul elnm h serv!eo is uot now; it is us old as tho apostlos. Again this kind of a service may be so conducted ns to bo an in jury to the church and community. Tho notion that because tho church is spiritual und mouns well, tho de votional mooting will run itsolf is on a par with that booauso thg preacher is Joligious if he opens his mouth the Lord will fill it. Also tlioro must bo plau and judgment used. The Cor- monts so woll expross the principles of our roligiou. The leader roads intelligently a few verses of scripture and all listeu to soe what message God has for them. AH heads are bowed while a half dozon voluntary, Bhort prayers of confession, thanksgiving, praise and petition are aseonding to our Father iu henvon. Some one calls for the martyred president’s last whispered hymn, “Nearer My God To Thee.” Its lute sacred associations impress all with tho thought of tho blessed privilege of living near to God. The loader does not stop to preach a ser mon but announces that as there are so many who will probably desire to speuk tlmt it will bo uecessary for each to bo brief. Brother A. testifies that ho has established tho family altar. That ho believes that if God is to be wor shiped anywhere it is in your own homo. Brother B. remarks that his finan ciul losses brought him under a cloud uutil ho roud the promise that “All things work together for good to those that love God.” Brother C. says that he hos just j rend Bishop Vincent’s book on Sun the church is closed. Thus is proved true the text: “If the whole church b.e.assembled together, and all prophesy,.and there come in one unbelieving or unlearned: he is reproved by all; he is judged by all; the secrets of his heart*''are made , 'A -f manifest; and so he will.falFdown on his face and worship God,’'\declaring that God is among you indeed.” When all other societies meet to gether and talk freely, of the things that pertain to their interests, how long is the church in whose cure the Almighty has committed the eternal interests of mankind to., neglect this powerful and common sense and scriptural method of edifying its members and converting thé world. Can anyone say that this is sensa tional or that this service violates the most rofined tastes? There is talent enough in Choloau if consecrated to God and so used to shako the foundations of perdition. A wuve of salvation would, baptize tho whole county. The religious elements iu the youug people would bo aroused. A higher type of social life would obtain. Tho haunts of sin would bo abandoned and God would be glorified. Czolgosz In Good Health. Auburn, N. Y., Oct. 15.—“Abso lutely nothing new with Czolgosz,” was Warden Mead’s reply to a query of a newspaper reporter today. Tbo condemned assassin, has not asked for any spiritual adviser and tho death warrant has hot been read to hint. He has not given , the least intimation that he would like to make , 1 , away with himself, contrary report? notwithstanding. Ho ate heartily of his breakfast today and has no com plaint about his health. Wardon Moad’s greatest puzzle is how to get the hundreds of applica tions from all parts of tbo country cut down to tho limit prescribed by the state law. iuthian church had miraculous spiri'- jdiiy schools and ho has never realized ual powers but they had to bo told tbeir wortb beforo antj that he will not to bring their meetings into con fusion by tbo iudiscriminato use of these gifts but to have pluu aud ordor in tboir work. Wo lear that tho whole church, not a half dozen, came together in this kind of a meeting. A social meeting is for all. It should bo, and can ho made of equal interest with tho preuchiug service. I was pastor of a little church iu Spokauo in which there woro as many present at the Thursday night devotional meeting as at tho Sunday night preaching, and that church was always full of life. An Indian minister of tho Pres byterian church in making his ropoit at tho Presbytery said: “Number who attend preaching 140; number who attend prayer-meeting 140.” When asked how ho accounted for this, he remarked that ho.taught his people that they could no bo good Christians without attending both services. Again, wo learn that tho object of the social sorvico is for both tho edi fication of Christians and the conver sion of sinnors. It is a wrong notion that the prayer meeting is a kind of a committee meeting of a few old saints who are ripe for heaven. This not only send his children, but go with thorn. Brother D. oxhortsyoung Christians to begin at once to develop the ability to work in the social mootings if they would make the most of their im- llueuco. .Sister E. roads the scripture that “God will koep him in perfect peace whose mind is staid ou Him” and testifies to its truth. A professional man told that ho was once in doubt as to the immor tality of tho soul, but that Foster’s “Life Beyond thogravo” had removed all uncertainty, and advised any one so troubled to read it. A young lady remarks that Frances Willard’s favorite hymn: “Lead Kindly Light” expresses her faith and asks tho poople to sing it. An old backslider arises and ex plains now his attendance at the ThuJsday night meetings has kept him under conviction of sin for some timo and that ho has sent $50 east to pay a hospital debt that he left un paid ten years ago, and that he had renounced his sin and was going ‘ o lead a Christian life again. An aged brother told how he had tried six months, as he thought, to Georgetown, Ky., Oct. 14.—After l the jury was completed this afternoon in the trial of ex-Secretary: Caleb Powers as accessory to the murder of Govoruor Goebel, the defense < ’ t. challenged tho whole jury, charging it with political bias and. rthe officers of tho court with packing the jury % for the purpose of ’ conviction.\ Bo'.h sides presented affidavits and argu ments, after which Judge Cantrell overruled the motion of the defeuso to disqualify the jury and 'also a demurrer to the indictment to'which the defense took objections. meeting, is for the cultivation of the * got religion. But he was waiting Helena, Qct. 12 —The total receipts af the ststo land office for •* tho week ending todpy were $4,553-7fi. Of this amount S3,851.79 belongs to the school income fund- Practically all of the money received: .is,' from the lease of state lands. ' '' H # . devdlioual spirit in the whole church, and especially for tho conversion of poople. Nothing will stimulate and spiritualize Christians more than to see their children and neighbors con verted to Christ. Aud any church that docs not witness such scenes vyill get indifferonl to tho spirit of religion; for that is what the church is for. Notioe again, that all were to take some part, and tho part they wore lo take was to pray and prophesy. Now* prophosy was some word of teaching, or experience or counsel relating to the christiau life. They were.to' seek ’ ‘ . S - ' ' to prophesy; to especially.('cultiyato this exercise. /or an emotional experience like an old deacon used to relate. But when ho took Christ at bis own word of in vitationand was baptised aDd joinod ■the church, and began to follow the Savior the best he knew, be felt the peace of a good conscience. He ex horted .people to take Christ at his word. A lady o f fine character arose and said she had always believed in re ligion , but felt coudemoed for neg lecting lo confess Christ and that the next Sunday she was going into the church and work to lead her family in tho same way. . The^hour is up. The service is C h a llenged the Ju r y . M arried on Deathbed.5! Great Falls, Oct. 15.—But ¿'a few moments before his death at Colum bus hospital this aftorpopn,jHonry Jackson was united in marriage to Miss Della Hart. It is said their courtship had ex tended over a period of several years, and that it was the last wish of the fast dying man that he bestow'his name upon the woman he loved. Jackeon was about 35 years of age, and for a number of years had been engaged in the coal and wood busi ness on the west side. He ha’d been ill with pneumonia but a few days when he died. S e a r c h e d the Judge. Georgetown, Ky., Oct.—Under the operation of Judge CantriH’si' order that all persons be searched for con cealed weapons before being per- i mitted to enter the room where the <■ • v trial of Caleb Powers is being tried, the judge and the lawyers sides submitted to a search morning at the hands sheriffs.
