Mrs. Nat Collins arrived home on yesterday’s coach, looking as well and hearty as ever. Her many friends will be glad to see her looking so well. Judge Knowles has sentenced Mart Brommel to one year and two months in the penitentiary and to pay a fine of §100 for .-»el- ling liquor to the Piegans. It is reported around town that Gibson Walker will move their business across the street into the building lately fitted up by Mr. Gibson, and that C. Fawcett will go into the business building now occupied by Gibson & Walker John Hobbins of Brigton came in this evening. M. C. McFadyen, of Dupuyer, wa- in town yesterday. The board of county commis sioners will meet next Monday. County Surveyor Goodspeed went to Dupuyer today to inspect the county bridge lately con structed at that place by Chezum & Bruce. Commissioners Gray and Clark are to be there also and will pass upon the work to morrow. Choteau will assume corporate poopositions and dignities this summer. Arrivals on today’s coach were Win, Wallace Clark and John Crawford. Alex. Buokley, of Fort Benton, who is looking up horses on the range, stopped over night at the Beaupre house. Eddie Risley and Willie Lintz were circumambulating the con fines o f the villiage in a most con genial manner today. Charles F. Suiste, aged 24, and Charlotte May Krotft, aged 16, both o f the upper Teton, were married by Justice Beaupre, in Choteau, today. C. R. Scoffin came in from his ranch Wednesday. He reports a large crop of lambs, grass and nothing in the way of prosperity except congress. Win. Gallagher came in from Dupuyer today. He reports Du puyer as quiet—pursuing the even tenor of her way and marching onward toward capitalistic prefer ment among men, regardless of what Choteau or Bynum may do. A collision ot cur red Wednesday on Choteau avenue whereby W olf Burton and Byron Corson were made to bite the dust. While coursing along the avenue’s smooth surface on their “ scoareh- ers,” Wolf ran into Mr. Peebles, who was walking by the way side, and was thrown violently to the ground after colliding with By ron’s wheel. Both came to the grass entangled in their wheels and their wheels entwined the one with the other in such fashion for a time it was impossible to distinguish which was which. Mr. Peebles was not hurt, neither was the safety which W olf rode. The two riders and Byron’s wheel however, did not come off so well Wolf has a lip more fit for a tuba than for a coronet and Byron’ s legs and arms would make better saw-lags than drum stn-ks, while his wheel was doubled up like a jack knife. Thecivil docket for the term of court which convenes here next Monday will embrace but two cases for trial. There’s but one criminal case so far as known, that of Snyder. Hugh Rose came in Thursday from Taylor’s. He says he killed a rattlesnake yesterday down among the rocks on the Teton, 1 that measured 7 feet and 3 inches ¡in length and that it had 19 rat tles. Rev W. W. VanOrsdel arrived ¡on Friday’s coach, and will hold services at the school house morn ing and evening during his stay in towu. A. McDonald, of Willow creek, is fitting up the Bair building in meat market style, and in a day or two will be prepared to furnish the public with meats of all kinds. The postmaster here has re ceived notice that service on the route from Choteau north on to Blackfoot will be increased to six times a week after July first and that the route to Steell will be disaontinued on that date. The contract to Brighton or Collins was secured by a Salt Lake man for $745 per year. Service be gins July first, six times a week. F. M. Cowell leaves for Mem phis, Mo., to-morrow morning. Mr. Cowell is the father of A. J., Wallace and Ray Cowell, of this place, and has been here about three weeks on a visit. During his stay among us Mr. Cowell made many friends, who would like very much to see him come among us to reside which, of course, he will not do, being en gaged in business in Memphis and having his home permanently lo cated there. We understand, however, that he has become in terested in Teton county real estate to some extent. Mrs. Nat Collins, the Montana Cattle Queen, returned to Cho teau on Saturday last after a three months visit east. Mrs. Collins is looking well and hearty. Her many friends were glad to see her home again. While H St. James, Minn., she was taken sick and remained there two months, during which time she wrote a complete history of her experiences in the West and which will shortly appear in book form. While away Mrs. Collins delivered four or five lectqres on “ The West and Western Ways” which were well received by the people and which drew immense, crowds. Mrs. Collins speaks in the high est terms of those oi the St James people with whom she became acquainted while there. During her absence she visited Kansas City, Sioux City, St. Paul and ^uch places, at some of which she spoke to large audiences. She is now at her Willow Creek ranch looking.after matters and arranging for another trip east which she coutemplates later in the season. Sun River, May 31.—Sixty- three Coxeyites arrived here last evening with five wagon loads of provisions. The river being high they had to wade about half a mile, getting their wagons stuck and breaking out a tongue. They were busy all morning hauling their stuff through here, as they had to make several trips on recount of the high water. They camped at the old mils, and will leave here this afternoon for Fort Benton where rafts are being prepared for them. They go down the Missouri from Benton. One deserted here.
