Two Smart Little Youngsters

What the small boy who haunts City
Hall Park does not know about the ins and
outs OF human nature is hardly worth
knowing at all. He understands among a
great many other valuable things that the
elderly and we'll to do citizen generally
likes to SEGA fight and altcrwarl, regret
ting his yielding to brutal longing for scenes
of gore, is ready to make amends i'll some
way or other. This fact received u practical
demonstration u day or two ago.
Two newsboys, dirty. ragged and shrcwd,
as is usually the CASE with the urchins in
the park. stationed themselves where home
ward bound Brooklynitcs would BE- sure to
see them. These boys were not of Il size.
One was iairly plump, the other was /,

A Communication Calling for Action in
the Fall Campaign.
The following circular signed Executive
Committee, Labor Party of Montana has
been issued and is addressed:
Workingmen of Montana: For the past
fifteen years the Knights of Labor and kin
and out of season to have incorporated into
the laws of our land the principles which
we believe to be essential to the welfare Of
the working masses of our country. Those
years of effort and labor find us TODAY far.
Their from our object, with capital in bet-
ter position to Cypress rs, and our condi-
ton growing worse.
1--WE have asked for government control
and ownership of the railroads and tele-
graphs; to-day those and kindred CORPORA
tlons own the country and government. We
asked that the government issue currency
directly to the people, without the inter
vention OF the national banks; to-day the
bankers tell us we can have so much money
and no more, and our congress has practi-
cally demonitized silver.
I'VE asked that the public domain he
held for actual settlers and for homes for
our people; to-day We have to beg for a
small portion of our rightful heritage from
Wealtny corporations and foreign syndi-
"WorkinRmen, who are to blame? Evil
IDENTITY ourselves. Not for lack of zeal or
knowledge of our situation. but for the
wrong use OF the power we hold as Ameri-

Strike in tho Copper Be1l-No Orc in the
Lone Pine.
Since the Temporary collapse of the mi n
ing exchange there is an apparent lull in
local mining circles. Development work ia
going on, however, in every section and
favorable reports are being received. News
of big strike in Copper Bell reached the
city yesterday, and Mr.. Sam Word imme-
diately left for the mine to investigate.
The Ben Kimber is also looming up, the
ore improving with every foot of develop
ment. Recent assays show an average re-
turn of $50 to the ton. The second car
load of ore is being taken ont and it is in
tended at an early date to ship two cars a
week, thig as soon as stopping begins. The
Ben Kimber is very systematically and
economically worked, and has every indica-
ton of being great producer in the near
future.
Butte Miner: The Lone Pine company's
10-stamp mill in the Vipond district closed
down few days ago, and will remain in a
state of quiescence until the vein is en-
countered at lower depth. It is the inten-
ton to sink 4Ofeet more before starting the
crosscut, and as this will require some time
the mill will not resume operations until
there is plenty of ore in sight.
The O-stamp mill in course of erection
for the Jayhawk company near Dewey's
fiat is almost complete and will be running
about August 10. The company is now en-
gagged in buying up all the available milling
ore in the neighborhood of the MILL and
will start off under the most favorable con-
ditiOns for a successful run.
The output of high-grad ore from the
GlenRarry this month will be about 200 tons,
35 tons Of which were shipped to the Parrot
smelter yesterday. This ore averages be-
tween 60 and 20 ounces of silver per ton,
which will make the output for the month
about l4,OOO. Besides this the company
receives a royalty from lessees working on
from William Wilson alone, who is leasing
on the east end of the claim, amounting
to ST 600 last month: For this month, how
ever, the royalty will not be SO large, as the
paystreak in Wilson's ground has narrowed
down. Taking the expense of reduction,
etc., into consideration, the total product
of the Wilson lease for last month was close
to 5000. Stock in the property is now
quoted at between 80 cents and 81 per share,
but as there are only 100000 shares in all,
the property only has valuation of be-
tween 1900 and 100000. which is none
too high.

Tips From the Bat.

TIPS from the BAT.
The Salt Lake team play game at Butte
to-day.
The game at the Athletic park will be
called at $3.50.
A small backstop has been erected near
the gate, but it is not quite high enough.
Dryer played short yesterday, Hubbard
was on the second bag, and Comfy was
played in right.
Harvey Barbour, one of the old Helena
nine, umpired Yesterdays game in a very
satisfactory manner.
The battery work of Keas and Crotty yes
terday was much admired. Ed. struck out
nine of the visitors.
Taylor, the clever catcher of the Dem
vers, had quite a number of his colored
brethren out to see him play yesterday.
The Pastimes and Queen City teams will
play this afternoon at the Seymer Park
grounds. Game will be called at 2:3O.
Lee Swords. who runs the lemonade
stand, would make good coacher. He can
be heard all over the grand stand yelling
out the merits Of his wares.
The jewellers and the Montana National
bank nine will play a game some time next
month. An admission fee will probably be
charged and the proceeds donated to some
charitable purpose.
Two more games remain to be played
out of the series. The Athletics have
won two games and their hackers have con-
fidence enough in them to think the team
will win at least one more.

Among the Hor.e..


Secretary Popesays that there will be more
horses at the track during the August meet
ing than were ever in Helena before. Only
part of the stables have been at the Mis-
soula and Deer Lodge races. The Spo-
kane string is at Anaconda and Califor-
mia and Wyoming stable is at Butte. One
hundred and seventy-hve horses will be the
number that contest for the liberal Helena
purses and stakes.
At Chicago last week in q selling race
Noah Armstrong purchased Rimini, entered
at 81 600 for $3.50 in advance of that sum.
The Chicago stables purchased the mare
previous to that in a selling race. Rimini
won two races at Chicago and Meckie H.
took one.
The best half mile on record was made
on the Helena track by Cyclone and Sun
day, each covering the distance in :34A SEQ
