As if,\ she added, with an air of disgust, \we were all sitting around Solding our breaths waiting for the telephone to ring, in the fond hops that IR will prove to be some mascu- line admirer who desires to honor us with his company! I'm sick of it!\ \Me too!\ chimed in with ungram- matical fervor the girl with the coro- nation braid. The fluffy -haired blonde embroidered two polka dots with a puzzled frown. 'You see,\ she said, \if the girl has t large and well-worn sense of humor she merely smiles to herself and won- Iers if it would pay to jolt the man Seto a state of enlightenment. But if ler sense of humor is undeveloped the asks herself with disturbing pialms if it is really possible that the creature thinks she is crazy about Urn.\ She regarded the entire row of polka dots with disfavor, preparatory to beginning on another. \Not long tgo,\ she continued, \I had the sans - ! action of freeing my mind on the sub- iect.\ \Really?\ cried the girl with the :oronation braid. \It was just by accident,\ es- dained the fluffy -haired blonde. \You know,\ she proceeded, \I was risiting Marie in Milwaukee last nonth.\ The others nodded. \Well certain man whom we will call leorge and whom I have always mown, happened to be there at the same time, on business. Now, I'm fond of George, in a way. \When he called up the house where I was visiting and informed me hat he was 'going to get out to call.' ! was very amiable about it. He want- sd to set a time, but naturally I :ouldn't make an engagement without mnsulting my hostess. So Marie and ; talked it over, and she insisted upon shifting the entire week's calendar in order to leave an eveiing open for 3seorge to call. We had something in- :eresting on hand for every night, too, out Marie felt that it would be rude lot to receive George. Finally we nanaged it for Saturday, and I wrote 3-eorge a note to that effect. \In the course of time Saturday tame, and so did George. This is the way he began: 'Well, well, you've seen here ten days, have you? Really, : did mean to come out before this, hope you'll excuse me. I've been ip to my ears in work.'\ The members of the sewing circle exploded with mirth, but the fluffy - mired blonde was too indignant at the - ecollection even to smile. \He thought,\ she said, \that the joy of fly visit was blighted by his inatten- ion! \I was perfectly paralyzed for a mo- nent, and then I proceeded, without teat or prejudice, to elucidate cer- ain ethical points upon which it teemed to me George's education had peen deficient. \He listened with startled attention intil.I had finished, then he said, in t surprised voice: 'You mean, then. that you think I am egotistical!' \'Painfully so,' I told him. \'But really,' he assured me, look - mg shocked, 'really, you don't know ne at all if you think that, not at dl! Besides, I honestly was awfully Ousy, or I would have come out--\ , The fluffy -haired blonde stopped and •iighed reminiscently. \Thee Marie lame down,\ she said, \and took in .he situation.\ \'It has just occurred to me,' sur gested Marie, that if we all three like motoring, we can telephone to Charles King. He asked us to go out tonight, rou know, and seemed very much die- ippOinted that we had an engage- ment.' She turned to George so sweet- ly that he was naturally obliged to Lcquiesce, but I noticed that he was thoughtful all evening.\ The sewing circle giggled again. \Of course,\ murmured the girl with the coronation braid, \men are not all like that.\ \Indeed they aren't,\ agreed the Iluffy-haired blonde, with satisfaction. 'When Marie comes to visit me I want to show her that my friends are mot all like George. And if we marry the nice, unassuming ones—\ \We mostly do,\ said young Mrs, soothingly. \The others re main bachelors, and their egotism grows upon them.\ Not Such an Empire, After All. Somehow it shrinks the breadth of our country when we know that an old man can walk across it, from sea to tea, in 77 days.—Phliadelphia Record. Mr. and Mrs. H. S. Ekleberry are rejoicing over the arrival of son at their home this morning. Election Returns Shows Democratic Increase Party Will Control Lower House in Con- greE s ---Will Name Many Senators Yellowstone County Stays Republican Only Men on Ticket That Were Defeated Were M. J. Lamb for State Senator and Chas. C. Sanderson for Commissioner Day at Hardin Was Quiet Election day has come and gone and all people are busy ex- ' changing ideas and trying to ' account for to the tremendu-1 ous changes brought about by the days work. Complete returns from through out the entire country show that the Democrats will be in control of the lower house by a major- ity of 29. Democrats elected to .ongress according to the latest eturns are 225. The Republi- ean representation will be 164 or eight seats les than the Demo- -.rats now have in the sixty-first •.:ongress. The sixty-first con- gress was compcsed of 215 Re- publicans against 172 Democrats1 while the sixty-second congress will be composed of 225 Demo- cratic members against 164 Re- publicans. A number of states that here- to -fore have been identified a§ Republican states have, elected Democratic governors and in a number of cases will send Dem- ocratic senators to the United States senate. Reports are to the effect that the Democrat' have elected at least 54 members of the Montana legislature, which means that upon joint ballot they will name the United States senator that is to succeed Thomas H. Carter. Fifty-two votes are necessary to control on joint ballot. The sen- ate will be Republican by a vote of 10 to 18, While the house will be Democratic by a vote of 42 to 32, according to practically com- plete returns now in. The Gazette gives thv result in this county as follows: In the county including the city, about 3,100 votes were cast out of the 4,244 registered, which means that 73 per cent of the vote reg- istered in Yellowstone county was polled. Congressman Pray carried the county by over 500 majority, Railroad Cornmisedher Morley on the Republican ticket polling a majority just a little less, while Clerk of the snpreme Court Athey, the Republican nominee. has about 700 majority in Yel- lowstone. Chief Justice Brantley received a handsome vote in this county, having a plurality of almost 50 votes over his nearest opponent, Jud• - e Cheadle. It is expected that the official returns will show that W. B. George, elected state senator, will have a majority of about 400 over Mr. Lamb, the Republi- san candidate. C. S. Bell's majority over T. C. Armitage, the uncessful Dem- ocratic candidate, will total about 300. County Treasurer Whitney. Clerk of Court Jones, Count Au- ditor Sle-per, Superintendent of Schools Mrs. Morse and County Surveyor Lillis, re-elected with- out opposition, were.given hand- some votes, many complimentar- ies having been received by all of them from Democratic friends, as appears by the returnes. The race for county commis- sioner is so close that an official count will be required to decide. With one precinct unheard from, Sorrenson,the Democratic candi- date is 7 votes in the lead. The majorities of the other county candidates, elected on the Republican ticket, will be ap- prox:rnately: Sheriff Orr;ck ov- er Matlock 600 . ; Cierk-Recorde Renwick over Hedrix 850; As sessor Smith over Klenck 1,000 Taylor for County Attorney over Marshall 700; Coroner Smith over Setzler 800; Stoddard for public administrator over Frith 600. Yellowstone county fell in line with the other counties of the state and giving a handsome ma joaity to the proposed amend- ment to the state constitution, • which will keep the tax rate al 2 1-2 mills instead of lowering i to 1 1-2 mills. The majority it the county is not known. The proposed authorization fo the expenditure of not more thai $25,000 by the county commis- sioners to provide homes for th, Are of county charges on th( poor farm was .carried in, the county by a comparatively larg , vote, as is apparent by the scat- tering returns received on this from the county precincts. The day at Hardin was qtliet. 142 out of the 208 registered voters of this precinct cast theii ballots. George, Sorrenson and and Marshall were the only Dem- ocrats receiving a majority vott in the precinct. Makes Strong Talk for Party On aturd , y evening of last week the etepublicans put forth the e last effort to stimulate men of that filth in this vicinity. Attornry J. H. Johnston of Billings, addressed the voters of this precinct in the Becker hall and was heard by a large crowd who provd to be attentive list- eners. & Mr. Johnston delivered the strongest talk that has beer. made at this point during the campaign. He spoke along par tj e t„ lines, evading the making of any one in .ividual the iss , showing where the Republican party stood on the matter per- taining to local interests. His talk was well received. Ladies Serve Lunch The Ladies Circle served lunch all day Tuesday at the Gibson store. Sandwiches, pie and coffee was the bill of fare. The effort was well patronized, nettir.g the ladies about $21. No Hunting Any party guilty of trespass- ing on my premises will be dealt with according to law. M. M. BROOKS. HELPFUL 1 GUFSTS ...........••••••-..-•-•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••-••••••••••••••••••• Although of a hospitable nature, Kiss Belinda had long ago added to ter litany a petition to be delivered rom visitors in the spring. \Planting ind visitors don't agree,\ she often said to herself. When, on the day she was putting n seeds for her annuals, she saw an iutornobile turn into her driveway she gave a gasp of dismay and arose from ter knees with an expression of fa- igue not caused by her garden la - sore. \We have come out to pass the day with you,\ announced one of the girls, who gaily jumped out of the car. \And we were only two hours and ifty minutes running out from town,\ maid another. \Wasn't that good time? We are planning to go home by moon- ight.\ \Oh Miss Belinda,\ exclaimed the third, \how perfectly lovely your place looks and . what a lot of spring work. rou have done already! Now, we 'sen't going to interrupt your labors it all. That would be a shame. We ire going to help you. What shall ere to? Shall I weed the garden?\ \It's a little early for weeding,\ an- iwered Miss Belinda, with a smile. 'I think perhaps luncheon should be :he first thing on the program. My sPok has gone for the day, so we shall lave to prepare our own meal.\ \All the more fun. We love to :ook. Let us do everything,\ cried the girls in a fumbled chorus of en- husiasm. \Very well,\ laughingly agreed Miss Belinda. \You can start things while : get a little of tiPe garden soil off my lands. You'll find nearly everything n the pantry, and what you don't find there is in the cellar.\ The girls, having frequently visited Aiss Belinda in the summer, quickly made themselves at home and Mks Belinda, dressing in an upstair chain- )er, smiled as she heard the bursts A merriment rising from the kitchen Ind dining room. \I oughtn't to grudge them such a good time,\ she said to herself, \but lust now every day counts so much n getting the garden started.\ She still was thinking regretfully of ler unfinished garden beds as she wen', downstairs. \See Miss Belinda, what a pretty salad I have made of watercress,\ said me girl. \Watercress?\ Miss Belinda looked it her visitor in surprise. \Why where did you get watercress?\ \In the garden. There was quite a slump of it, but I didn't take it all, for thought you'd want to have another oiled before what I cut grew up wain.\ \I'm glad you didn't take it all,\ said bliss Belinda, looking carefully at the green leaves under the mayonnaise, 'because I'm afraid it won't be very good in salad. It's campanula. We'll iust throw it out, my dear, and not say L word to the other girls about it.\ \I suppose it is a kind of a joke on ne, isn't it?\ \Well Miss Belinda's eyes twin- ned, \I don't know whether the joke s on you or not. I should place it n another quarter.\ \Oh Miss Belinda, do come into the titchen,\ called one of the enthus , ic young cooks, \and tell us whs; :hink is the matter with these s -et potatoes. They're boiled all right, tea they don't seem to be the right color. : was so delighted when I found them n the cellar, and onions, too, but I'm draid they're spoiled.\ \Yes they are undoubtedly spoiled,\ -emarked Miss Belinda, gravely, as she recognized her precious dahlia loots boiling in one pot of water and dozen of her choicest gladioli bulbs sizzling with cream sauce in another. \And the onion,s aren't good, either, ire they? They haven't a bit of onion odor.\ \No these are not good onions. In :act, they are very poor onions, in teed.\ Miss Belinda laughed a little strangely. • \Well that's what I call a disap- pointment.\ \So do I,\ agreed Miss Belinda, seelingly. \You don't blame us for not know. Ing they were spoiled, do you, dear hiss Belinda?\ \Oh no, I—I am the one who should iave been more careful. Are you ma. ding an omelet?\ \Yes I thought that was the nicest way to use the fresh eggs I gathered,\ tnswered the girl who was turning in omelet in the skillet. \I never had the fun of gathering eggs before, and wasn't I lucky? I found 13 eggs under Jne hen. She was the stubbornest .1reature. I could hardly get her off be nest.\ \I can imagine it was difficult,\ said' hiss Belinda, adding to herself: \Alas my expensive setting of Rhode I. and Reds that I put under the poor old Th h ee z n s t he his s m at or si n c i tw n t ' a . t. the Lunch. ta. — - Make Many Improvements W. W. Scott, superintendent of the affair's at theCrow Agency is making a num!;er of changes which is adding much to the ap- pearance of the place as well as to the convenience of the people who live there. He has asked the department for a large ap- propriation which has been grant- ed with which cement walks' have already been built. A steam grading outfit is now at work on the streets and work on the in- stalling of an electric light plant for the place will soon begin. When finished the people of the Agency will have all the con- veniences of a city. Business Changes Hands A deal, which has been pend- ing for sometime, was closed last evening whereby the large stock of the Thomas hardware passed into the hands of the Eder Bros., which will be known hereafter as the Hardin Hardware Com- pany. Charles Eder, who for some tim'e has been traveling repre- sentative of the Conley im., ment house of Billings, will have charge of the business. Mr. Ed- er has had a wide experience in the implement business and is thoroughly familiar with all hardware lines and the Tribune bespeaks success for the new firm. Mr. Thomas has not announced any plan for the future. The Ladies Circle will meet with Mrs. T. E. Gay on Tuesday and with Mrs. Marshall cn Thursday. All members are ur- ged to be present. de and entered into the merriment of ter guests. Her heroic good will last - ml till she saw the automobile disap- pear with them around a beud of the -clad late that afternoon. \Anyway she murmuren, \I kept them from working in my garden. That's sonic comfort.\ His Regular Nightly Go, Judge Hilary C. Guest, the temps* , ance advocate, said in recent ad- dress in Cleveland: \Alcohol makes some men pugna- elous. A man of this type was drinking glass after glass of beer in a saloon when his wife entered. \'Jim she said, wearily, it's after 11 o'clock, and you have got to get up at five. Have you had your scrap yet?' \'Naw Jim snarled. \ 'Then get it scrapped and hurry In home, do!' \'All right,' growled Jim. and hay an hour later he staggered home with the usual contusions and abrasions.\ Still at Her Desk.

PIttsburger's d Break, 1 A new angle on table 'i , 1.1 , tte was obtained by a Pittsburg tuan on a re cent visit to the country. He tells It as follows: \As the family with whom I was dining was a typical backwoods one. I was somewhat suiprised to observe beside each plate a small dish re sembling a butter chip, but a triffe larger. Now individual butter chips are somewhat of an innovation on ths farm, but, I thought, the good people are putting on a few frills on my ac count. So I helped my , -elf to better and placed It on the small dish. Scarcely had I done so when I die covered I was in wrong—very wrong. Each member of the family. as If in re Duke of my ignorance, proceeded tc pour his coffee into hi, saucer, then setting his cup in the little dish, began to sip from the saucer with a long sybilant s-s-c-sp! \f suppose my lark of t.slee manners Is lite talk of the country side out tbere.\—Pittstmiar Times-nesette We have a first ( - ‘ass line of rugs and carpets. all kinds and sL,t_s.
