If the Boston Bos-ton & Montana company proposes to stop Heinze from working the Minnie Healy again if will have to go through all the injunction proceedings over again.

The meeting of the state fair executive execu-tive committee was the most important j since the organization. The official distribution dis-tribution of the funds among the various vari-ous divisions of the fair was made, the official speed, programme announced and the splendid gift of $10,000 from Mr. William Scallon, president of th$ Anaconda company, was accepted with thanks. To say that the generous action of Mr. Scallon is appreciated by the executive ex-ecutive committee and by all of the officials of-ficials of the state fair is stating the facts very feebly. Through this liberal liber-al and public-spirited donation the Montana state fair has, in the very, first year of its existence, been placed upou a par with the. state exhibitions by other and older states, where the utility and value of these great exhibits exhib-its have been demonstrated by years of actual test.

IDAHO FALLS, IDA. ' (Special Correspondanee.) Circus day was the busy day for this toi. People from all parts flowed in on the specials. The Catholic ladies at the last moment decided to run a lunch counter, though not approved of by the pastor, as he wanted them to enjoy themselves; but out of the church his voice is weak, so. they had their own way and. as a result, they had the best lunch counter in town and realized a handsome sum for the church. If they did so well under such hurried preparations, prepara-tions, what will it not be on the first Saturday.. in -September? Great-credit is due to Mesdames Higgiris,, Taut-phaus, Taut-phaus, Magili and .Wilkinson for the energy they displayed. Would that their example would be copied by th lukewarm ladies of the parish who can identify themselves with' other churches but not with their own. . . r ... Taking advantage or the manv vis-' lh V tholjos in town, ut the mass last bunday a discourse on the obligation n V- of hearing mass was given by thejjas-tor, thejjas-tor, who dealt pretty severely upon his lukewarm Catholics.'.' ' ' " Rev. Joseph "Dryer sang the high lT.ass at Rexburg last Sunday. All the Catholics from St. Anthony 'were in attendance. at-tendance. The mission will open this week at Woodvine's hall by Rev. Father. Fa-ther. Kress, upon his return from Big Elk creek. -A Mr. MacDermott, from Bozeman, Mont., was a pleasant visitor at the parsonage. f- By chance Mr. Lloyd and son met the Catholic priest at the depot the other evening, and inquired about house property, ana as a result he invested very heavily. He' had heard of this town through the means of The Inter-mountain Inter-mountain Catholic; hence the dutv of ail good wishers of that paper to send on their weekly budget of news, wherever wher-ever it has1 a circulation. f A good joke was played upon your correspondent last week. His love for the emerald green is proverbial, so to help on his understanding, a pious community of sisters in Utah notified him to go down to the depot for the hose. When he opened the suspicious parcel it contained twe pairs of green j hose for his soles, so he. is "wearing the ' green." Probably greenbacks will come next. Sample copies of The Intermountain Catholic were freely circulated after mass last Sunday at Blackfoot. In its new dress it is bound to take with the literati. Mr. and Mrs. Luke La very of Salem Sa-lem came down to see the circus, and took as their guests home Mr. and Mrs. P. Knowles of Pocatello. Mesdames E. P. Coltmann and M. Tautphaus will be in charge of the forthcoming, supper. There is no doubt that under such energetic ladies it is bound to be a great success. As the ! Idaho Falls people claim ours is the i best, we are ambitious to uphold our ! reputation. The young ladies will be in charge of the tables. The, pastor in-I in-I tends to give a premium for the most popular lady but he., himself must be prudent about his choice. . ; St. Patrick's church at Rexburg received re-ceived from the Drcthren down nere an organ, hoping the congregation up there will cultivate their latent musical talents. f Mass on the Feast of the Assumption and on the following Sunday will be at Market Lake. This, in all likelihood, will be the last visit for this year. . : Mr, Geoghan and family from Butte moved into Idaho Falls last week. He is now engaged in furnish- J ing brick for the many new buildings in course of erection. '.' . .- John Niederkorn of New Sweden is progressing nicely after his recent illness. ill-ness. ' ' The tourist element for the park has been very heavy lately from Idaho Falls. All our liverymen are at their wits' end to supply the demand. Even sheep wagons are in demand. For the public school ar. Market Lake next year Misses Ryan and Burgraff have been engaged; so it will be a consolation con-solation that for the benefit of the Catholic children the Sunday school j can be organized. 4 - Miss J. Wilson, accompanied by her aunt and cousins from Blackfoot, visit- ed Idaho Falls last week, and were j sorry they had not their homes here. j Dr. and Mrs. Middle.ton of . St. -Anthony, old friends of the pastor, were pleasant callers last week. - As already remarked,. The Intermountain Inter-mountain Catholic should be better advertised ad-vertised in Idaho, not for the want of subscribers, but more so for the news I from the various towns. There are " many towns in Idaho where Catholics would like to go, but the absence of the j names would seem to indicate there are no Catholic neighbors, which is far from the truth. Young folks have plenty plen-ty of time to write out a few items, and by so doing are advancing materially ma-terially the interests cf all parties. POCATELLO, IDA. Mark Brennan, the lineman in the employ of the Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone company, who died last j week of rupture of the intestines, was buried on Saturday last.

Mr. Brennan was born at I Waverly, Minn., Feb. 17, 18S6, and has a father living at Minneapolis, Minn. His brother, Peter Brennan, who is also an employe of the Bell Telephone company, com-pany, came down from Idaho Falls and assisted in the arrangements for the in-j in-j terment of his brother. BOISE, IDA. ' ' The industrial reform school commissioners com-missioners have decided upon the location lo-cation of the new reform school established estab-lished by the last legislature, selecting the tract near Saint Anthony, owned by C. H. Moon and wife, at a cost of $S,500.
