The unusual sight of a tramp "Jew" was
seen on our streets this week. 1t is n very
rare thing to find an Israelite tramp. lsn-
ally these people care so well for one another
that there is no need of tramping; but ac-
cording to this individuals story, all lsrae-
lites are not charitable to their brothers.
He stated that he called for aid on one of,
if not the most pronounced Hebrews in
town. and to avoid giving him anything the
gentleman denied his paternity, and declar
ed that he was not Jew. At Oak Hall

treated but not in other quarters.

Fresh Fruits.

Herald, %: The Northern Pacific
railroad company has put into effect
q special rate of one dollar and fifty
cents per hundred pounds on green
fruit in car loads of twenty thousand
pounds or more, from Portland to
points between Missoula and Boze-
exclusive. Also to Deer Lodge
and Butte. From this time on dur
ing the fruit season, We are to enjoy
the luxury of pears, apples, peaches,
plums and melons at prices where
We can. as 1t were, revel In these
luscious products. The fruit. crop
this year is abundant in Oregon and
Washington territory and a special
rate of 81. so per hundred Is in force
from Walla Walla, where fruit and
melons are cheap and where they
are as good as at any place in the
United States. So, now with cheap
rates on fruit, both by express and
freight from the Pacific coast, We will
be Put on better terms and with
plenty of what we deem an indis.
pensible luxury for ourselves and
families.

HORRIBLE.
Prof. Common Sense Sheds Light
on the Baking POWDER Subject.

To THE PRICE BAKING POWDER
COMPANY: In compliance with your
instructions l have bought and chem
ically tested some potatoes and tur-
nips. [ have now analysed most of
the articles used by man for food, and
find them to contain the chemical
elements of the soil in which they
grow, and it is my opinion that corn,
f1our, potatoes, turnips, cabbages, and
in short, all cereals and vegetables
are unfit for use.
l find that to grow these articles
profitably the greedy, INSCRIPTIONS
farmer mixes with the soil guano,
stable manure, dead fish and the con-
tents of vaults, and to think of using
for food anything produced from
these things, is to utterly disgusting
to be entertained.
l find also that the common air we
breathe and all water, meat and milk
contain ammonia, and yield to the
system more thereof than any baking
powder biscuit ever could, 1 have
therefore prohibited the use of air,
meat, milk, water and all the vege
tables and cereals in my family.
Thanking you for fee inclOsed in
your order, ($1OO), l am, truly yours,

Special to the MINER:

Governor Crosby states that the
special agent sent by him to inquire
into the condition of the Piegan In
dams has just returned and found
that these Indians, about 1900 in
number, are dying from the effects of
gradual sta1 walton at the rate of one
a day. The men and women are
gaunt and spiritless and the children
emaciated. All are SO weakened by
the lack of sufficient food for the past
two years that dreadful suffering and
death will occur shortly. The appro-
priations for this year only permit
the agent to issue two pounds of beef
and three pounds of bad -four per
week, which is entirely inadequate
to support well people. The governor
reports an unnatural and inhu-
man state of things existing and calls
upon the Secretary of the Interior to
assume the responsibility of issuing
full rations until Congress meets In

The Northern Bonanza.

Benton Record, %: A private let
ter from J. J. Healey contains some
facts of interest. The owners of the
copper bonanza have already made
arrangements to ship ore to Swansea,
Wales. the Canadian Pacific having
agreed to transport the rock for SIS
per ton, and a large force of men are
now ut work sacklng the ore for
shipment and large quantities have Ave-
already passed over the road. Mr..
Healey left Silver City on the l?th
instant for the British Columbia SIDE
of the Rockies, to examine some
placer diggings, reported to be very
rich. Tom Healey and Flint nave
made some rich discoveries IN quartz
the richest, 1t is believed, yet dis
covered north OF the line-and there
is great excitement over the new
find.

The auson TramWay.

E D. Reynolds, agent for the HUI
son wire rope tramway, says the
Halidie tramway Is one Of the
things numbered in the forgotten
past, and that in q recent issue the
MINER erred in stating that q Hail.
die tramway was to be built between
the Comet and Alta mines at Wicks,
that it is the Huson tramway, the
best wire rope tramway ever pro-
duced, and the only wire rope tram
way which will succ essiu]y work at
a right angle. Montana can boast OF
having the best and longest endless
wire rope tramway in the world.
We cheerfully correct the error and
congratulate Mr.. Reynolds upon his
success in placing the Huson tram

siderable amount of rich ore is on the

terday found everything working
smoothly and satisfactory. The prin-
cipal work is being done on the 200
foot level, where the ore body IL
TWENTY-FIVE feet wide. Only what
ore that is encountered in drifting is
being taken out. About seven tons
of ore are hoisted daily, which will
average fifty ounces in silver and
about Is per cent in copper. About
800 tons are on the dump. In
about q week or ten days . winze
will be sunk from the 200 to the 800
foot level for air. On the 300 foot
level the ore body is sixteen feet wide
and goes away up In the hundreds.
There is now enough ore in sight to
keep a smelter running steadily, and
we hope in q short time to be able to
announce the fact that its enterPris-
ing owners will build one.

The prints of the MINER not hav-
ing received q definite aDswer to
their challenge issued several days
ago, and being dead-bent Oh playing
baseball. last evening through their
manager made q match with the
Buttes, the game to come off next
Sunday, back of the Jail. The orig
inal prize-a key of beer-will be
battled for. 1t may look unreason-
able that q nine composed of con-
sumptive typos, who by high living.
etc., are in the majority affected with
the govt, should ''do up'' the cham
pions of Montana, but we r afraid
such will be the result. The prints
have several good players among
them, and if the seductive beer can
only be kept off the ground until the
game is over, victory is theirs. 1t is
feared that the Butte nine, knowing
the typos weakness, will take this
unfair means to beat them and sneak
the beer in. Such an action should
be condemned-and 1t will the
typos. (D Jasper says If there
will be no tax levied for knocking
the cover off the ball he will play.
Robinson says he will attend to the
umpire, and the rest Of them, every
one of whom says he is equal to nine
tailors and q shoemaker, say they
will take care of the rest of tie play

stands seven feet three inches in his
