Walter S. Brodie, who is classed as
one of the finest outfielders in the
Leag ne, returned to his homo in Roam
oke yesterday. whero no will spend the
winter. Mr.. Brodie has signed with
the Boston club for next season.
This brilliant young player has only
been member of tho league for two
seasons. but during this brief time he
has made record that is second to
mono in his profession. AS an out
helder he is invuinerablo and O fy ball
any whore in his territory is as safe as
though it dropped into basket.
Asa batter he is one of the surest in
the profession and can usually be relied
upon In an emergency. In base running
Brodie' uses great Judgment and while
his number of stolen bases is not as
great as it might be, it is because he
does not take reckless chances on the
Tags, but relies moro upon the man at the
bat. Brodie has received enough praises
from the most prominent writers in the
country to turn tho head of q much
older man, but he is not at all affected
by them and does not suffer with that
'SA"oJ oO COHluoH 10 many ROOQ
players, "swelled head"
Z M. Brodie paid very pleasant visit
to The TINES Office last night, and he
can talk baseball as we'll as he can play
it. He secuted tho idea that tho New
York club allowed the Bostons to beat
them in the last game of tho season
and stated that the latter club won tho
games on their merits. The New Yorks
were crippled to certain extent and
were not able to play their best during
these games, but even had they been
able to put out their strongest team
Brodie Is confident that Bostons would
have beaten them, for the Beaneaters
were playing pennant ball and each day
put more ginger into their work.
They felt that they would head the
procession ut the end OF tho season, and
this confidence in their own ability
enabled them to win many games. Mr..
Brodie says the League is on as sound q
financial basis as it ever was and has no
favors to ask of the Association.
a. number Of Mr.. Brodie's personal
friends will tender him at banquet to-
night and there is no doubt butwhat
the affair will be most enjoyable one.
Roanoke is proud of this gifted young
player and vol she may be.

ETEAGHER COUNTY MINES,

Montana Mining review.
Maiden and her mines never
looked os we'll as they do to-day.
The Spotted Horse, though more
spotted than some mines in true
crevice veins, often opens up vast
bodies Of rich ores, which keep up
its reputation for a great producer.
Two very successful runs were made
on the new mill during the past sea-
son.
The mines Of Maiden never looked
so we'll as now. More development
work has been done than usual and
the mines are meeting the great ex-
pectations Of their owners \ little
more waiting, and the development
Of Il few more rich mines, and the
snort of the iron horse will awaken
the good miners of Maiden to a
realization of their fondest hopes.
Neihart, the fortunate, has taken
new life with the advent Of her long
desired railroad. Every mail brings
us news Of new discoveries and
Developments OF greater riches.
Barker, too, is diligently i'm
proving her new means Of trans
portion by shipping ores which
have long waited for the advent
Of the iron horse. The sound of bis
breath has given new strength to the
muscles that WELD the pick and
the drill. It is about time for the
old furnaces to awakofrom the repose
of years and pour out streams of
bullion to freight hcrnew road.
Castle is about tired Of waiting for
tie iron horse and is preparing to
build a good wagon road to Neihart.
The development work is still
progressing in the Cumberland. The
ore has been reached in the 600 foot
level and the shaft is going down
another hundred feet.

Dr.. TowEn's lecture Sundayniglt
was we'll attended. His talk was
principally in the form of appeals
and his method OF logic took many Of
lis premises for granted without
proof.
The gentleman handled some very
interesting thought in most able
manner, but no part perhaps was
more interesting than when he bore
upon the Importance Of a higher
education. The truth is evident that
too mulch learning is the exception
and too little the rule. How often
do We hear the expression by men Of
all stations, Il ought to have spent
more time in. preparation for my
business or, u should certainly try
for position if I We're only COM
petent.' Too little preparation is
the great complaint from all our
trades and professions. Joseph Cook
said, "spend the first thirty years in
life preparing to live the last thirty"
He himself acted this principle, and
his wisdom will stamp itself upon 4
nation.
\ most beautiful expression was
the a~ntecedent OF Ills argument for
higher education. The scope Of
every mans ideas constitutes the
world which he lives ill.," This was
illustrated in the Doctors own forci-
bic manner, and his arguments were
generally convincing.

1t is again the season Of the year
whe, the editor of the county pa
be dives to the bottom of the peri
odical copy drawer and digs up his
old christmas editorial. Only the
date need to be changed. 1t is no
trouble to a thoughtful editor thus
to have a new editorial every Christ
mas. But we have lost ours, and it
was a long one: 1t spoke Of TIE
season when hopes are bright and
cares are darkest: when wants are
longest and purses are shortest;
when the world OF holiday goods and
gifts turns lose to taunt the people
without money. It spoke of bud
ding youth and the frosts Of winter;
of sober age ripening into calm re-
~trospection; when hopes of the past
year have became knowledge and
those of the next are born. It called
our dazed optics to the delinquent
tax list and told Of nights broken by
dreams of terrible failure. Christ
mas comes in the month Of greatest
rate Of both marriage and mortality.
and while some are wondering II tie
next yule tide will find them single,
others are wondering if it will find
them alive. We trust that VI read
crs Will live to see their best wishes
realized in the coming year and we
wish them a Christmas today of all

NORTHEaM PACIFIC ExEMSTION

The Northern Paoiic1las complet-
ed its plan to build a. branch line
into Neihart. For The past year this
company has been quietly figuring
on the possibility Of such a line,
knowing full we'll that it will be a
paying investment II oncc completed.
The difficulties to surnount in the
construction Of such a line are more
numerous and trying than those the
Montana Central found in their APP
proach to this camp. Several ranges
of hills must be crossed and the
summit OF the belt range must be
passed. Running surveys have been
made of this route which point to
the probable ourse as approaching
from the head Of O'Brien creek.
This route would most probably
pass through White Sulphur Springs
and it is known that a vast amount of
paying mineral country will be open
ed up where it has heretofore reqnir-
ed & very rich grade to pay for
handling. New mines will be open
ed along this line and new prospects
discovered. The road will build
along the west side Of Badly and
will come very near the Broadwater
group and the Dakota mine. It is
supposed that their depot will be
near the mouth of O'Brien creek.
