Jamlne Iklovan. the Orator of the Day -lie Vividly Portrays the Irish ('hnraeter. lIE 17th of March is observed throughout the United States as a holiday by all citi zens of Irish descent, a day that by fitting services and festivti ties they can pay homage to their patron saint, and yesterday was no exception to the rule in Great Falls. The sun shone bright and clear all day and the weather was certainly auspicious for St. Patrick's day. Most everyone wore a badge or ribbon of green and some enthusiastic hackmen and others had their hIorses properly dec orated with that color. A committee had for some time been busy making preparations for a musical and oratorical entertainment suitable for the day and it was given last night in the court house.j The place was literally packed by the time for conmmuencing the exercises. There were quite a number of ladies scattered through the vast audience and some children, all intent on enjoying a rare treat. Nor were they disappointed, for from the beginning to the end of the progiam everyone was deeply interested, especially when the orator of the occasion pictured the history of Ireland from a remote period to the time of Daniel /O'Cnnel. Hon. T. E. Collins presided, and after a few chosen remarks on the event which they had assembled to commemorate and some music by the orchestra he intro duced the orator of the day, James Don ovan. That gentleman was warmly re ceived and at once proceeded to deliver his address, which was listened to at tentively from beginning to end. lie gave a brief sketch of Irish history before the time of St. Patrick and then described at length the saint's evangel ical work and the final result. Coming down to a later date in history he graphic ally described a number of important events. He vividly portrayed the Irish charcter and closed with a fine peroration. It was written in a perspicuous style and finely delivered and reflected great credit upon Mr. D)onovan's oratorical attain mients. Messrs. Biles, D)nks, Coleman and Matteson sang a number of selections which were much applauded. Mrs. Ira Meyer sang "Killarney" and another Irish song and was the recipient of repeated applause. Mr. Hawkins sang "Dear Shamrock" and two other selec tions, which fairly convulsed the audi ence. He was the recipient of an enthu siastic encore. Mr. Gottloeb gave a version of "Hip Van Winkle" and sustained his reputation as a comic dialect-speaker of capability. He was encored and sang a cute song, which brought down the house. The meeting closed with other exer cises of an appropriate nature. It was a very interesting and instructive enter. tainment and bespoke a great deal for our local talent. There were over 800 tickets sold for the entertainment and dance which followed. Lovers of the Terpsichorean art ad journed to Arion hall and enjoyed them selves till the small hours. .osrT IN THE SNOW. t hri't Halhn Freezes to Death While Trav eltng in the Belt Park. Saturday, March 7, Christ Hahn, well known to the citizens of Monarch, started in the Belt park to walk from the house of los, Anderson to the farm of Mr. Wolf. lie mistakenly left the trail for a straighter route and soon found himself in a storm, floundering through timbered ravines and deep drifted snows. No word came from him and on the following Fri day Mr. WVolf came to town reporting that they had not heard anything of Mr. llahn. ~aturday, March 15, a searching party consisting of John $chultz, E.

'They found where he had lain down two or three tunes full length in the snow, perhaps froum ex hlu:tttion, but when he reached the crest of a ridge where the ground was bare they lost all sight of his course and were forced to return without any knowledge of his whereabout. Yesterday morning a party of nine, con sisting of A. J. Vance, Mr. Minor. and others, left Monarch to scour the country in the neighlborhood of the lost man's trail. They were joined by several ranch men of the Park and all hands worked hard to reveal any news of the man, for soime still entertained a faint nope that he might still be living. At 3:30, however, they came upon his body in a wooded rae vine on Mr. Wolf's ranch, not more than ten mninutles' walk from the house. lie had tried to build a fire, and. failin inu this, had walked but a few steps further and lay down upon his back, for so they found hint.

Casper Dahl, a seventeen-year-old boy trom Minot, 8. D., who has been visiting here some time, lost an arm yesterday morning while attempting to couple some cars. His left arm was caught. between the bumpers and frightfully crushed. He was taken to Dr. Gordon's olffice and it was found necessary to amputate the mangled arm very close to the shoulder. At last reports the poor fellow was do ing as well as could be expected. It is a very sad affair for a young man to go through life thus handicapped. Yardmaster Van Allen had repeatedly warned him to keep away as he was not in the regular empioy of the company. He is at his brother-in-law's house on the west side and will probably pull through all right. A Good Time at Arlon Hall. 'The Workingmen's union gave an other entertainment lasteveuing in Arion hall and like all gatherings of that or ganization, it was well attended. It was very instructing and entertaining. There was music by the orchestra, speeches by a number of good speakers and some comic songs. The object of the meeting was to create a better feeling be tween labor and capital and some very good ideas on the subject were advanced. H. T. Oakland presided. After some music by the orchestra, A. J. Zimmerman spoke for a few moments and earnestly advocated that workingmen should stand up for their rights and not be so subservi ent to capital. Mr. Stokes sang a song entitled the "Honest Workingman," which was loudly applauded. Master Arthur Gerin played a cornet solo which was a treat. Fred Gottlob then gave his version of "Rip Van Winkle' and as usual was called back and sang a song. Labeck, the acro bat, held the audience spell bound for a time with some of his athletic exhibi tions. Mr. Leach delivered a recitation entitled the "Murder" which was liber ally applaudled.

The meeting was a grand success. THE WORLD ON WHEELS. Great Northerln Enlgineer Surveying a Branch Line From Tacoms to .il. ver Creek Mines. A telegram from Tacoma says a corps of engineers of the Great Northern engi neers today began a survey at Arlington, which is to be extended from that point to the Silver creek mines. They claim to know a route which is from twenty-two to twenty-five miles shorter than that by either the Skagit or Skyhoinish river. The most important rumor that is cur rent in railroad circles is the reported sale of the BelliughamBay & British Col umbia road to the Great Northern. The Bellingham Bay & British Columbia runs from Whetcom to Sumas City on the boundary, and for a considerable dis tance, is side by side with the Seattle, Lake Shore & Eastern tracks. Railroad people who have watched the movements of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern closely say this move ment on the part of the Great Northern will be checkmated in an effort to secure a traffic arrangement with the Canadian Pacific. The Bellingham Bay road is not operated its full length, but is graded and railed almost the entire distance. The road is owned by Bellingham Bay capitalists and has been on the market as salable property for some time. MR. CLARK'S RACE-HORSES. He Has Added Several Fine Voeagstern to His Trotting Stable.
