Crawford and bride returned from Great Falls Wednesday evening and are now stopping at the Valley Ho tel pending the completion of their new home on Choteau avenue. • Bishop Hopkinson made a tiip to Great Falls last week after lime, ins.Mip- ply having been long since exhausted. “ Hop” should have burned an extra kiln pf lime while he was at it, but he did not. figuie on the increaseo demand there would be lor it this winter. We know of three reliable business concerns who contemplate erecting bus iness houses in town next season. En quiries as to the quality of brick making material in this vicinity are consequent ly being made. Geo. Rarron returned from the Flat- head country this week. He reports KahRpell as booming, and that Deraers- ville is moving over to join the boom. He says I. N. Hazlett. late of this place, is there and is doing well. He and another man with whom he has formed a partnership, are erecting a two-story brick store at that place. Mr. John W. Power, of this city, in forms us that the current report that he and Jos. Kipp have commenced the const ruction of a large store building at Blackfoot station is without founda tion. Mr. Power states that he is not connected with the enterprise, as his in terests throughout the county already demand his entire attention.—River Press. The weather sinee the 11th instant has been variable, ranging from 16° below on the 15bh to 47° above on the 18th. On the 9th and 10th about four inches of snow fell and was immediately blown into drifts, leaving the ground bare. On the 15bh two more inches fell, bub on the 17th a.warm wind from the west sprang up and the ground is again uncovered. The weather is now warm and pleasant. Dan. Carpenter who has been spend ing a few weeks in ou r . town took bis Departure on Monday’s Chotoau & Great Falls coach for his home at Nei- hart, to look after his vast mining in terests in that promising camp. We 1 learn that it is Mr. Carpenter’s intention to re-visit us again in the near future at which time he will place some valuable mining stocks upon the market thus giving our capitalists a chance to invest in the hidden treasures of Neihart. The celebration of the completion of the railroad to Neihart, which took place last Sunday, was a decided suc cess. Speakers from Great Falls and Helena were present and, joined with local talent, made such speeches as did “ Old Baldy” proud. After the celebra tion was over, however, and while on the train returning to Great Falls a heated altercation arose bet wet n some drunken men and Jake Harris, or “ Jew Jake” as he was belter known. M ar-' shal Treat, of Great Falls, interfered j and on his arrival at that city, just as 1 he left the train, Jake opened fire ou the marshal, wounding hitn in the back and hip. Mr Treat returned the fire, the first shot bringing down his game, who is now safe in jail. Besides wouudii g Treat, Jake’s shots flew into the crowd at the depot; one hitting Joe. Lessard, of Barker, under the e.ye and inflicting an ugly wound. Another shot took eT- fect in the leg of Arthur Marks, a 10-\ e. r old son of I. Murks, of Helena, inflicting a flesh wound. At last accounts ah were doiug well. In view of the coming races Thos. Maupin, one of the riders, is being sub jected to a series of sweat baths and ex ercises in order to reduce his weight for the occasion. Louis Miller, of the G 2 outfit, has Maupin in charge and, it is alleged, daily subjects him to a series of sweat baths over a wash tub of boiling water and then takes him out in the cold, clear air for an hour’s run on foot while he (Louis) chases on behind mounted on the fleetest footed horse on the ranch. A curious feature of all this in that while Maupin’s weight is being materially reduced his speed is greatly increased, so that his trainer is hard pushed for horses swift enough to keep up with him. If this wonderful speed is much further increased between now and Thanksgiving, the day the races are to come off, Miller has signified his wil lingness to run Maupin against the win ning horse for any amount the owner may put up. m a r r i e d .
