and now holds, the foremost place among
Life Insurance Institutions Of the world.
The magnitude of its business proves that
it enjoys the confidence of the people. 1t
presents, to those needing insurance, a
security unequalled by any similar institu-
ton. 1t has never disputed claim which
was shown to be just and right, and has
carefully sought and practiced the most

Der of tons represented in this vast mass,

In not the exact figure. Probably 10000
tons have been already extracted from the
mine, which wonld reduce the amount TO
800, 600 tons. Now multiply this BY $40,
for though some of the ore assays very
nigh. the whole mass taken together Will
not, perhaps. mill to exceed $40 per ton.
The result of the calculation you win find

An Oriental Vice Enshrined in Deer Lodge.
We confess our village is not as fast as
some others of Montana. We bave no OPP
era house no PInafore combination no
City Government no Board of Trade no
daily or holiday paper no hurdy gurdy
houses no military post no Agricultural,
Mineral and Mechanical Association no
steam fire engine ; no "Gceat Expecta-
tiOps ~; no mineral springs ; no boom -
We are peaceable, ploiding, practical
people, neither living on the past nor dis
counting the future, enjoying what good
we have without the envy Of covetousness
or vain satisfaction in our possessions and
~lthal somewhat independent in poll
tics, religion, business and opinions. We
have not set our hearts on metropolitan
glories nor Withdrawn entirsly from the
ambitions OF communities. In other words,
Deer Lodge accepts the situation Or, in
the classic diction Of old John Stanton,
Islands pat and hollers How"" But
when we have genuine sensation when
we can stand up on our hind feet and
browse IN the empyrean where the great
cities barely poke their noses with vain
glorions delights, we are not going to hide
our electric light under bushel and let the
tallow dips sputter in our aggrieved eyes.
And we have it. Deer Lodge has an Opt.
um den. The den is about oil there Is left
of it now. During Court term 1t was the
resort of some Of the less reputable persons
summoned here, and even white women
are allie ped to have haunted its shades and
revelled in the fumes OF the noxious drug
until midnight passed and daylight
peeped across the eastern hills. 1t Is IN
the diiapidated hut two doors west OF the
China store, and a Celestial son OF the
moon is boss. Mr.. Spooner, night watch
man, nd ises us Of the above, and says that
daring court as many as fourteen people of
mixed ages, sexes and nationalities were
congregated there one night. We do not
feel quite 80 proud of this rs we might.
Th den seems to have reverted back to
especial Chinese use. We do not know OF
any law for suppressing it or others.
Would IL not be good thing for the Leg
islature to enact measure whereby unin-
corporated villages like ours could be pro-
tected from the mai itenance of these in
situations where a habit is contracted tha,,
once fully acquired, can never be broken
but by death and the qualification OF which
is the worst vice that human flesh is heir

caught in the gale near Cartips, and could
neither 20 on nor return and had to pull mp
with the horses heads to leeward and wait
an hour for the subsistence of the storm.
A quite heavy rain fell then, and the driver
says an intensity black cloud passed alcng
north of them indicating a much heavier
fall Of rain. The sleigh had on couple of
passengers who took refuge in the bottom
under buffalo robes, and as the team was
pulled up near . telegraph pole the wild
