This is accomplished but rarely by the greatest artist and is the constant aim of every sincere historian. Ilohenstauffes is one of those happy composite creations which strike a chord harmonizing with the universal heart. The pleasant environment and the exquisitely natural dramatic treatment make the character stand out like a mosaic in the hands of Mr. Clement. At the Union, Wednesday evening, August 31.

Fitzgerald, Agent for Standard Patterns. DALY BLOOK, Missoula, Montana HIS WOKK Too COARSE. Man Who Claim to Reproduce Picture But Doe Not do S. Complaint has reached this office about a man who is soliciting orders for reproducing pictures who is said to he a fakir. His mode of operation is to go to a house with the sample of a photograph neatly transferred to glass, stating that he has a process for reproducing the same on glass without lnjuiy to the photograph, which he promises to return in good condition.

His price for a single picture on glass with neat gilt chain frame is 75 cents. Having secured a photograph he proceeds to transfer and not reproduce it on glass, and that in a rather clumsy manner, and then gives some excuse for not returning the photograph has-forgotten it but will bring it around the next day which he docs not do, as he cannot. His proc.es is very simple. He merely soaks the picture in water until the film can be removed from the card board, places it on the glass, daubs some asphalt on the back and the job is done. parties who have entrusted work to this man have had old and valued photographs spoilt, his inartistic work in all cases failing to meet expectation, besides suffering the loss of the photograph.

Those who have pictures they prize should not entrust them to this man's hands say those who have suffered frmii his misrepresentations. SPLIT KAMBOO FISH HODS WITH NICKEL HUMMING, SI. 00, AT J. L. M'PKIDE'S.

1 1 EX It KOSENDOIIF, Trop'r. Bread, Cakes and Pies Fresh Every Day- Ice Cream and cake In Connection, Colored Troops Stationed in Montana Known as the Fighting 25th. WERE KEPT IN THE FIRING LINE The Fourth Massachusetts Gave Them Their Name Which They Kobly Deserve. Helena Independent: When the Twen-iy-fifth infantry comes baok to Montana, as it may do in the near future, it will be surrounded by a halo of interest peculiar to itself. For while when it left here its officers told of their great confidence in their men the regiment was to many an unknown quantity.

It is now the "Fighting Twenty-fifth," and it will remain the 'Fighting Twenty-fifth" as long as there is a Twenty-fifth regiment in the army. No other regiment served with more distinction during the recent war with Spain. The bravery of the colored men was a revelation to all, and it received its merited recognition from the white soldiers all over, the field of battle. Corporal John W. Muir of the Twenty-fifth, in writing to a friend in Helena, tells some interesting details about the fighting in which his regiment was engaged.

He tells how the regiment was ordered to the assault of Fort Caney, and how the fighting continued from 6:15 a. m. until i o'clock in the afternoon without cessation. It was there that the boys won their title, and Corporal Muir speaks with pride of the fact, He says: "In speaking of the charge as made by the regiment, 1 had the pleasure of hearing one of the members of the Fourth infantry as he remarked to one of his comrades: 'Did you see the coons take that stone was the ieply. 'I did, and they went up there, through that shower of Spanish bullets, just the same as if there had been no enemy within a thousand miles.

1 saw but one man fall, during the rush of about 150 or 200 On our way lack from the front, the Second Massachusetts volunteers gave three cheers for the 'Fighting declaring that they were and would be our friends and comrades as as the battle of El Caney remained in history. Thus ended a day I shall long remember. Then, with the Second brigade, (Col. Mills), Sec ond division, (Gen. Lawton), we took our piace in the order of march, and moved (after burying our dead with military hon ors) to renew the attack on Santiago, July 2.

During this time, the other three colored regiments were making for themselves a place in history. The Eighteenth cavalry had lost already Lieuts. and Shipp, and Maj. Wint wounded, and as we moved upon the firing line, Lieut. JSarnum (the adjutant) was being carried to the rear.

I could not see how serious were his wounds. Several enlisted men were killed or wounded, but none you know except Sergeant Milbrown, wounded. "When moving into position, Haword was wounded in the left leg. About 12 m. the 2nd, we were ordered in reserve to rest and eat.

July 3 found us again on the firing line, and while digging and throw ing up earthworks, two or three men were wounded but none killed. During all of this time Santiago was shrouded in smoke. While the land forces were deeply engaged, Admiral Sampson's fleet was destroying that of Cervera, and pounding away, dealing death and destruction to the last vessel of Spain's great flotilla.

Nothing Else Talked of iu Washington A Investigation to Be Held.

Washington, Aug. 30. Special to the Missoulian. Nothing else is talked about here except the disclosures recently made by newspaper men showing the lack of harmony in the army among prominent officers. It is now known beyond the question of a doubt that a little but po-rer ful clique in the war department tui to advance Gtn.

Shatter at thr of Gen. Miles and ignored the lati i i r-ders, and he the commander in ciikf of the army. The first intimation of a definite nature that Gen. Miles had preferred charges of a serious nature against Secretary Alger came from the Philadelphia Times' Washington correspondent, Smith D. Fry, and since then corroborative testimony has been furnished by the Kansas City Star, New York Herald and other papers.

The whole matter will be investigated, perhaps by congress, and the opinion prevails here that Secretary Alger will get the worst of it. No one denies that inefficiency in the war department has caused suffering and death in the army, ana this coupled with the charges of intrique to ruin the general co mmanding our armies demands an investigation. HE IS Fit ASK. Neville Lubbock JSeliev Jamaica Should He Ours. London, Aug.

30. Neville Lubbock, who was the expert adviser of the British delegates upon the occasion of the Brussels conference upon the question of sugar bounties, was interviewed today i.i reference to the proposed action by the Jamaicans to petition the queen for the cession of the island of Jamaica to the United States. Mr. Lubbock said that in his opinion the cession of the island to the United States would be of immense advantage to the people of the island. Almost all the products of the island, with the exception of rum, went too the United Strtes, and there was a feeling that the British West Indies colonies had been shamefully treated by the mother country.

Personally, he said, he could name three or four firms which had lost over in conseequence of this treatment. TKOOP TO KETIKN. Troop Missoula volunteers, will soon return.
