LOCAL bDitEGATES HAVE PLANS TO CARRY TO STATE GOOD ROADS CONVENTION. With the naming Of delegates to the M.ontana Good Roads convention by Major Smead' Saturday-Mr. Smead having named his representatives by virtue of his being president of the Missoula County Automobile club-the appointments of those to go from the Garden city and from Missoula county was made complete. It looks like the Missoula representation will be splen did at the annual meeting in the in terests of better roads for the Treasure state to be held in Kalispell July 15 and 16. Every delegate named prom ised to make the trip to Kalispell and take an active interest in the meet ing. They are all earnest good-roads enthusiasts and expect to help stir up such a wave of enthusiasm during the session that the convention will re sult in much practical good and that a way will be found to carry out some of the much-needed highway building in Montana. The city and county is to be repre sented at the Kalispell meeting by about 30 delegates. The rules of the association provide for five delegates to be named by the county and the same number by the city, thle cham ber of commerce and the automobile club and by each county vice presi dent, D. T. Curran serving in that ca pacity for Missoula county. The dele gates have been appointed by each of these and during the past week there have been several conferences in an attempt to arrange some plan of con certed action for working in harmony in the propositions which it is pro posed to carry to the floor of the con vention. One of the principal things for which the local delegation is to stand will be the completion of the park-to-park highway which has al ready been laid out between Yellow stone national park and Glacier na tional park, the route to be from Yel lowstone through the Big Hole valley, down the Bitter Root to Missoula, and from here across the reservation to PoIson and around the lake to Kalis pell. This route is already in pass able shape--rplendiu. in fact, with the exception of a few bad places. One of these is the road over the divide at the head of the Bitter Root. That this is soon to be corrected is certain now as the forest service, individuals along the route and Ravalli county have reached an agreement whereby the necessary money for a new road is available, There is another bad piece of road west of Missoula, near Evaro, but the Missoula county com missioners have already started to build a new road here. The right of way has been secured and is being cleared and the contract for the con struction is to be let within a. few days. The effort to lie made at the congress will be directed toward se curing pledges from the counties through which this route extends to give special attention to the park to-park route this season and to make it a highway that can be traveled in real safety and with real pleasure. Another matter which the local delegation will urge will be the repair of the road between Missoula and Butte, especially the bad piece in Granite county over which there has already been considerable agitation. This is really a section of the through state road. To Ask for 1914 Convention. After these matters are disposed of, the Missoula delegation is coming out to win the congress over in fa',r of the Garden city for the next meeting place. There is no section of the state more active in good roads work than this and the delegates believe that they will have little trouble in ihaving Missoula named as the con vention city for 1914. All of these plans by the local dele gation, however, are in their infancy. The conferences concerning them have -been between individuals of each delegation rather than at a meeting where all members were present. It is now proposed to call a general meeting of the delegates in the near future when these plans can be worked out in detail. The only matter defi nitely arranged between the delega tions is that A. L. Stone is to be the spokesman for Missoula, city and county, to address the congress on some subject yet to be selected, The trip to Kalispell will be made overland by automobile if the weather is favorable, and in addition to the delegates all others who can make the trip and helpl swell the Missoula crowd will be incited to join in the excur 3i~6io: LOCAL SOCIETY Suffragists Meet. e There was an interesting meeting of those interested in woman's suffrage last Wednesday at the home of Mrs. A. J. Butzerin. There were a large number present and enthusiasm reigned throughout the afternoon. It was decided to hold a picnic in Green ough park on June 18 to which a gen eral invitation will be extended to women, not only those who believe in the cause but to those opposed as well. There is to be an interesting debate on the subject of suffrage during the afternoon.

H am m ond 'Margaret Sutherland Clark T"he Theaters Empress. At the Empress today a clever com edy, featuring a baby sent by parcel post, and two other splendid photo plays. "Barred From the Mails"-The young matron lived in the Bronx, did her own housework, had a baby to look after, but still found a way to enjoy a day's uninterrupted shopping. She sent her baby by parcel post to her mother in Jersey City, meaning to drift over there in the evening, have dinner and reclaim the child. It was a very ingenious plan, and because the letter man was a new member of the service she induced him to take the baby. Then she went cheerily on her way. The letter carrier had his own troubles with the baby, but he got it to the postoffice and turned the youngster over to the superior. He found to his sorrow, however, that "live animals" could not be sent through the mails, and the package was restored to him, neatly marked "returned to sender." Under orders he tearfully located the woman's house, but the place was locked and there was no one in sight to accept the un welcome package. The postman tried to leave it on the doorstep, but a stern policeman convinced him he was wrong, so again he wandered back to the postoffice. By this time the mother had discovered that there was some thing wrong with the parcel post, for her baby had not arrived in Jersey City. She made frantic search, finally heard the policeman's story and rushed around to the postoffice just in time to save the little one from a journey to the dead letter office. Any postal official who religiously lives up to the rules will tell you that this is ex actly what would' happen when a "live animal" barred from the mails is turned in and the owner thereof can not be located. Tomorrow the Empress will feature the newsboy violinist, a boy who makes his living by selling papers on the street. He is a little wonder. HAMMOND ON SHORT VISIT. A. B.

INTEREST AROUSED IN FRISCO TOUR PLANS OF PORTLAND COMPANY FOR SEEING EXPOSITION ARE WELL RECEIVED. Several inquiries reached The Mis soulian office yesterday by phone re specting the San Francisco exposition tour -a'dvertised in the Sunday morn ing's Missoulian. A reporter inter viewed J. H. Field, general field man ager of the N.-W. Panama Pacific Tours company, at the Palace hotel, who is here in the interest of the business. In answer to the question asked, Mr. Field said: "No.. Unless it is the desire of two or more persons to share Pullman and hotel accommo dations, thereby reducing the cost, the tours are individual, and one traveling under a contract has all the liberties and privileges obtainable otherwise, plus the saving in cost and the dis tinct convenience of going to the bank and receiving credentials for the en tire tour without the annoyance and additional cost attending the single handed efforts of the casual traveler. And upon arrival in San Francisco a contract purchaser finds a $3.50 per day room reserved that otherwise cost a great deal of time and trouble to secure. "No one is obligated to accept the attentions of the attaches of the com pany en route or at San Francisco. Their services are optional, as are those of the information and protec tion bureau in 'Frisco. "Among the men connected with this company, Hon. T. T. Geer, formerly governor of Oregon, is president and has charge of all office affairs. Hon. W. P. Ketdy, formerly speaker of the house of representatives, regent of the agriculutral college of Oregon and formerly with the Union Pacific and the Milwaukee systems, is vice presi dent. W. H. Hurlburt, formerly gen eral passenger agent of the Harriman lines, is in an advisory capacity. The entire organization is composed of ex cellent men. "The deposits, I understand, will be made in the savings department of the First.National bank in identically the same manner as regular deposits are made and will bear 3 per cent in terest, being subject to withdrawal at any moment by the subscriber as is any other savings account, should said subscriber for any reason wish to cancel his or her contract." AFTER FIVE YEARS THUESON GOES BACK James Thueson, who for the last five years has conducted a tailoring and men's clothing establishment in this city, expects to leave this evening for Anaconda where he will re-engage in *the same line of business. Mr. Thueson came to the Garden City from Anaconda, when he engaged in business here, but after his experience he has decided that Anacognda is more suitable for his particular line. In speaking of making the change yester day Mr. Thueson expressed regret at leaving Missoula, where both he and Mrs. Thueson have made a host of friends. "We have learned to think a great deal of Missoula," said he, "and it is only for business reasons that we decided to make the change." Mr. Thueson is on the road much of the time soliciting for made-to-order clothing and expects to be a frequent visitor here. His store in Anaconda will be on Park avenue.
