An Awful Condition of Affairs Unearthed
In Boston Institution.
Boston special: The Investigation into
the death Of Nellie Martin by criminal
malpractice at DIR. Harper's tony establish
ment has unearthed an awful condition of
sffairs. DR.. Harper has been performing
these crimes by the wholesale for the
past four years and has grown enormously
rich on the proceeds OF his nefarIous occu-
patton.
Women came to him from all parts of
New England, and, as he was successful in
nearly all the operations he could attend
TO, he has had as many as fifteen patients
in his rooms at one time, and he never had
less than two. He began his practice four
years ago, and his practice grew RAPIDLY
He had then but a small Office, but within a
year he hired q suite of six rooms for his
patients. In another year he hired whole
house comprising eighteen rooms, and even
that was crowded. Then he paid $50 900
for the Cambridge house, and that was
used in connection with the first one. He
was peuniless four years ago. Now be is
rolling in wealth
He received fee of $50 from those who
remained in his care until able 20 20 about,
and SIS from patients when the operation
alone WAS performed. OF these outside
patients he averaged two or three a day.
When his patients had no money be ac-
cepted jsweiry as collateral. His patients
were about evenly divided between mar
ried and single women.
No scandal has hitherto baen developed
because of his uniform success One or
two have died in a manner similar to Nellie
Martin, but their deaths were assigned 10
large, but his business has been effectual-
ly destroyed.

Milwaukee wis. special: IL is esti-
mated by careful officials at encampment
headquarters thst there will be fully 40, 900
genuine old veterans in attendance at the
eDcampment, and there will be at least
seven sightseers for every old soldier that
will be here. This would bring a crowd Of
2S0. 600 visitors. But several observing cal
culators think the average TO each of the
40, 600 soldiers will be about FIVE outsiders,
IN which event there would be a crowd Of
2OO, 600 people 10 be fed and furnished
quarters. These estimates are based on
numerous averages taken by officers from
requests for quarters daily received from
old soldiers for themselves and families, or
immediate friends, and from people not
connected with the order. A general or
der issued by COmmauder-in-Chief Warner
under date of Aug. I3 states that the busi-
ness session of the encampment will con-
vene at the West Side Turner hall Aug. 2S

Gives His Reasons
NEW YORK, Aug. 2l-TO-day W. II.
Feckham, passed thirty-three degree Ma
son, who for thirty years has been an active
member Of the Masonic order, gives his rea-
sons for severing his connection with
Scottish Rite Masonry and the Corneau
Consistory No. 1872 of this city. His rea-
sons for so doing are because when the
Orient of France. founded in lbs, did, in
1875, eliminate the name of God from the
ritual, thereby compelling every symbolic
grand lodge throughout the world 10 de-
nounce the act and sever all relations of
smity and correspondence Herewith.
"And YET" he says, ''In spite
of this well known fact, brother
+. j. ). DOngss, present grand commander
of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish
rite of the thirty third and last degree Of
Free Masonry. during visit 70 Paris in
1908, did visit and met with the council of
the order and appoint representative
thereto as q guarantee Of amity on behalf
OF the body over which he presides-" In
conclusion Mr.. Peckham says the members
of the council of the order are members
and owe allegience TO the Grand Orient,
and consequently are under bar, and that
no true symbolic Mason can ignore the
edict of his grand lodge, which interdicts
his doing So"

OUR FLANNEL SHIRTS.

Why is il, you ask, that Har-
ris always has more flannel
shirts than any other store in
town. Why, simply, my
friend, because he sells more
than all the other houses in
Helena put together, and there
fore can afford to carry a much
larger stock; also, my kind
friend, because he always car
ries full stock of all the nov
elites in thu market, and iii or
der to do that must always be
getting In new goods by eX
press. We are now showing
an elegant line of plain and
fancy French fiannels at
81 aud 3. %. and a line of as
beautiful silk stripe shirts as
has ever been seen in this mar
ket, at 81. %. The latest nov
city, however. is a handsome
Madras shirt, fine nobby pat
terms, we'll made, guaranteed
not TO shrink or fade, at 50,
exactly the same as brought s.
sixty days ago They are
'.plums " Pluck them before
they fall
OUR PERCALE SHIRTS
In this line We absolutely defy
competition. Nothing can
equal us. We have a larger
stock and better assortment of
patterns than any house be
tween ST Paul and Portland
Ours are not old, shelf-worn
goods, but new, beautiful pat
terms and the latest novelties
to be found in the eastern mar
kets. Bought from a house
that needed money and at less
than one half of what they were
worth, we now propose TO
give our customers the benefit
of our purchases and sell them
the same way. We have di-
yided them into three lines
one at 25c, one at soc and one
at 75c Not one of these shirts
ever sold before for less than
81, and some as high as 3.
They are piled in our doorway
Give them a glance as you pass

RED LETTER SALE.

1t is the custom of a great
many Clothing Houses, when
the end of a season comes, TO
take all the old chestnuts that
have laid on their shelves since
the days of the ''bull teams,
pile them on a counter and Of
fer them at great bargains. -
Now, with us it is different.
At the end of a season our
buyer goes to market and there
buys just exactly the same
goods he bought az the begin
ming of the season for about
one-half the amount he paid for
them at that time Our buyer
is now in market and has
shipped us per express as large
a stock of flannel and percale
shirts and underwear as any
other house in Helena carries at
any season of the year. Do
not fall into that common error
of thinking that because goods
are cheap they are no good, for
a single examination will con-
vince you that you are mis-
taken.
