The PICAYUNL has been terribly mortified at our headlines, "stll they come" announcing new recruits for the cause of humanity against op- pression, and after careful survey of the country and fearful looking out, finally succeeded in finding one poor, wayward old Greenbacker away over in Texas who had decided to affiliate with the party of Wall street and old Shylocll, and the most silly part of it all Is that Pie. brags about it. Oh, how Pic. would crow if it had anything to crow about. Come.

Sorry for you, my brother, It is unneces- sary for us to herald recruits to De mocracy for we got so many last year that there are few left to come back. We mentioned about Mir.

A FRIENDEEss GIRL.
She Has Trouble With the Gas and
Electric Light Fixtures.

Last night about $50 q. Lopp dancing mas
ter, was walking the Snoqualmie hotel
when he was accOsted by a young woman, who
said she was without money and had no friends
in the city. She wanted place TO spend the
night At first he told her that he could not
help her, but when he saw two young men fol-
lowing her. he changed his mind and took her
TO the snoqualme hotel. She was apparently
about IL years old. neatly dressed, and she
seemed to be perfectly respectable
The name she registered was Miss Anderson,
and her residence was given as Seattle. Mr..
Lopp paid for her lodging, ana she was assigned
to room 70. To the l-boy, who took her up
TO her room, she said she wished to be called
at I:so in order to catch the City of Kingston,
was that she had friend on the boat who
would see that she reached Tacoma safely, and
there she had friend, woman.
Somewhat later the night clerk went to her
room to ask If he could send for any friends in
Seattle. but she declared that she had none.
She also refused to eat anything on the ground
that she was not hungry. AZ that time she said
she was undressing for bed.
During the evening the porter detected the
smell OF gas in the hall aud traced the source to
room 20. Entering the apartment he found the
gas turned on, but not lghted. Miss Anderson,
who Was awake, said that she had not intended
10 turn il on, but she declared that she had
made a mistake in handling the lights for the
gas and the electric fixture were Joined and the
two turueocks were close together
Some one notified the police of the trouble
and Officer Cave went TO the hotel but there
was nothing in particular for him TO do.

GOVERNMENT ASSAY WORK.
Director of the Boise City Office Visit
ing in Seattle.

Mr.. j. w. Cunningham, director of the United
States assay Office in Boise City, is at the Rainier
hotel with his wife He has been collecting sta
tistics of the mineral output in Northern Idaho,
and he is now taking pleasure trip through the
Sound country.
"Since her admission a state Idaho has gone
steadily ahead" said he yesterday. take Boise
City as an example,; within the last eighteen
months population has really doubled. People
went along for years without transfer of real
property, and no one knew what land was really
worth. After statehood came, outsiders from
Ogden and Salt Lake City came in and began
buying real estate at prices which seemed exor-
bitant 20 the older settlers. But when the new
corners sold the land for more than they paid for
it, the rest began to open their eyes.
Idaho is really state of great wealth. Few
have any idea of the enormous mineral re-
sources OF Northern Idaho. Though / cannot
now give exact figures, estimate that the out
put OF the Cour d'Alene country this year at
SIX or seven millions OF dollars. Idaho also
produces 40 per cent. OF the lead of the United
States
From the assay Office at Boise City we ship
million a year in gold to the Philadelphia
nlint-and that is three fourths as much as goes
from the Helena office. OF course only get
slch gold comes from the placer and free
milling quartz mines of the state The other
ores are shipped out to smelters and concentrat-
ing works.
Formerly the United States assay offices used
To furnish assays at cost to miners who would
bring ores there, but that branch of the work is
now given up, because the government does not
care to interfere with the business of private
sayers who can do the work quite as well.
"We now Duy gold-at the Philadelphia mint
prices, and thus save the miner the expense of
sending it to Philadelphia by express before he
gets his money. This is OF course great con-
yenience to the miners of the state.
I'VE do not buy silver bullion for coinage any
longer, but we stamp the weight and fneness OF
ores brought to us. You know, under the new
law, the holders of silver bullion offer 1t to the
secretary OF the treasury, who accept it at
their price or not as he thinks best He can buy
4,500, COD ounces month of silver"
In speaking of Boise City Mr.. Cunningham
said: "We have just sunk near the city an ar
tesian well which flows 900 900 gallons a day of
warm water whose temperature is 10 degrees.
company has been formed to build nata-
forum like that at Helena, only smaller. Pipes
also being laid TO carry the water into private
houses for heating purposes Engineers say that
the scheme is perfectly feasible, though they
have not yet determined how fast the water will
have to flow through to keep the house warm,
ald how much water there viii be from this
flow. But the scheme of heating houses by
hot artesian well is a novelty

The Ofiicial Report of the Minnesota
Dairy and Food Commissioner shows
the Royal Baking Powder the Best
in the state.
The last report Of the Minnesota state Food
and Dairy Commits sion contains the details of
the state Chemists experiments and analysis To
determine the strength and keeping qualities OF
the various baking powders. Samples of the
numerous brands on sale in this state were pur-
chased ana first analysed to ascertain their
leavening power. The Royal Baking Powder is
shown by the tests Of both state snalysts, Pro-
lesser Ebernan and Professor Drew, 10 contain
the greatest amount of leayeuipg gas of the
cream OF tartar powders thus purchased and
tested. Hence this powder Is officially ranked
az the head of the list.
The report attaches great importance to a ser
les of experiments made TO ascertain the char
scter, efficiency and keeping qualities of the
powders. Baking powders that vary in strength
or that readily lose strength before use, are I'M
reliable and will not give even results; besides,
II Is an indication OF the use IN their compound

very uproarious, and confusion reigned supreme
for short time. The meeting attempted 10 vote
for the seven candidates for counciimen one at
time. K. W. Grover suggested that one vote
De taken Tor the seven councilmen as the more
expeditions way. The chairman abruptly dis
carded the suggestion, and some one cried out:
"The West Coast is not in it," while others
shouted they did not wish TO be.
Then, amidst shouts of laughter and confu-
sion worse confounded, the balloting for coun-
cilmen, one by one, proceeded. Attorney Muir
Gibson became entangled in the meshes of a
confusion, the creation of his own rulings. Or
der, however, was finally restored by the adop-
ton of Mr.. Growers suggestion, when the follow
ing were duly nominated: d. z. Callighan,
Charles Williams, d. McVay, A. Looney. George
Scott, A. E. Pretty, Charles II. Dewey, for coun-
cilmen. Joseph NJ. Donoghue received the NOM
ination for councilman, but refused to serve, as
he was not voter, being in the state less than
year.

and p. Sankey were proposed for treasurer, and
Mr.. Murphy was nominated by the following
vote: 5. d. Murphy, SO; George P. Holden, 40:

confusion, the convention was representative
one. This ticket is known as the citizens non
