NIHT LETTERS ARE POPULAR SPECIAL RATES ON TELEGRAPH LINES MAKE HIT WITH MANY CUSTOMERS. Night letters are depidedly popular. The managers of the Postal and West ern Union dompanies are authority for the statement and of cnurse they know, says the Great alils Tribune. Like wise the operators are aware of the .act, as it. often occurs that 100 of these letters are sent out of Great Fulls in one night. Taking Great Falls ans a sample of the popularity of the let ters and then Judging from the nlln ber sent out here about how rapidly they come in over the .counters of the companies In large cities all over the, United States, It Is easy- to believe the assertion that night letters have at once leaped Into popular favor. Traveling men and members of the atrical companies are among the best customers of the telegraph companies. It is a simple, convenient and vallhle assist for a Chicago drummer to be able to sqnd 0o words for the price of 10 words and have his firm, or wife, or ,sweetheart, know Just how he is getting along, where he will go next, and, in'case It is the head of the house, he is addressing, to ask for an early remittance when expense money is running short. Theatrica) people use the night letter for various purpojes. The leading lady may send 50 wofds to her husband, or some other woman's husband, to let him know when she will be home: the leader of the orchestra brings the night letter into play when he wants to have, a.eertain musi.lan join him At Missoula, pr Butte, or Spokane: the prqperty malt sends greetings to a little b one at the next stop, telling her wen he will arrive: the brunette who ldats the chorus girls through their fancy and graceful steps, wires her ar ceptance of a proposal made by letter antd considers herselt engaged after the letter is filed. I And so it goes. For no particular reason, but for all purposes the night letter is pressed into service. "In some ways it even beats the telephone," said a 'Ielena business man who often comes to Great Fallt. 'tyou see, it's like this," he explained. "When I send a night letter to my wife she learns in fifty words.what I wish her to know, but I don't have to listen to 090 words she says In reply." But whether the night letter be used as a means of telegraphing for money, m4iling a date, accepting a proposal of marrlpge, informing the "papa" that "Little Willie has a new tooth," or or dering. goods from a wholesale house the letter is making a big hit. r Pl'm a business standpoint it keeps the operators and wires busy at times when there would be little doing. As the letters are sent during the night, to he ,del)vered the next morning, spare time is utilised In sending this class of mes sages. GISELIN WINS, Deauville, France, Aug., 15.-The grapd prix de Troullle-Dtauville wo'th $4,500, was won by W. K. Van derbllt's Olhelln. Yvette, owned by Mason Carnes, was second. FAR INTO ALASKA MAN IS CHASED DETECTIVE LANDS EDWARD CHURCH, WHO TOOK FIGHT FILM TO VALDEZ. William Geary, a special offlcer of ljenver, Colo,, has captured Edward Church, the man accused of making away with a moving-picture film, and is on his way to Missoula, where the warrant for Church's arrest was Is sued. The officer landed his man at Valdes, Alaska, after a chase of 5,000 miles. Church had the Montank rights for the Johnson-Ketchel fight films, so it Is said, and was to have rellnquished1 the picture at Missoula. He failed to do this, taking the film with him to Alaska. To Detective Geary, who started from Denver, where the film is owned, after Church, a warrant was given in this city. Detective Geary ar rived at an early hour this (Tuesday) morning with Church and the latter was at once looked up in the county Jail. The trial of Church may probably be held in this city.
