How to Celebrate.

On November Is, 1891, a mamoth
celebration was held at this place.
1t was the best time ever had in the
Little Belt mountains, if not all OF
Meagker county. Our citizens
sprung themselves for the necessary
funds, a special train was run from
Great Falls and Helena and thous-
ands of visitors came to see the smll-
ing young camp.
There was a little money left. 1t
was a sum close to $500. 1t was
left in the vault of the First Nation
and given in trust to Geo. l.. John
son and Dan. Condor and John
McAssey who were to check 1t out
when the people wanted it. There
was a meager and almostsllent notion
at that time that the money ought to
be spent on the next 4th of July and
that a swell time could be had.
Nothing further than this was said.
Now comes forward c. l.. Parker,
suggesting a new and practical idea.
He says to run a special excursion
train from Helena so soon as the
great Mining Congress is closed and
bring over all the delegates and
members of this congress, who will
be probably interested in coming.
Mr.. Parker built better than he knew.
The idea when told to others assum-
ed q business-like appearance. 1t
It was seen how 1000 people from
the whole civilized world would hear
of Neihart. How all of them so de-
string might see it. How the word
of our wondrous might be
echoed and re-echoed throughout the
land never 70 be forgotten and how
the hospitality we show will be
talked of throughout the lives of the
attendants at the Mining Congress.
John McAssey, Frank Tombs and
others have added much to the gen
eral plan, which is to be commended
because it advocates nothing but
what is lofty and noble.
There will be capital to view
mines. There will be expert min
ng men to report to august n
conservative bodies what they saw
in Montana. And we know there is
no place in Montana, 1--WE would like
to say in the United States) where
more business chances and invest
ment offers can be found than here
among our mines. We have the
best little town on earth and 1t is
doubtful if there is a better n in
any other country.
A preliminary meeting was called
last evening to call a citizens meet
ING and consider these affairs and to
order the special train. Nothing
ever stops us when we get started.
The little notion for a 18th of July
rally wants to be knocked in the
head and this other grander and
loftier one substituted in its place.
Neihart, in midsummer adorned in
her best bib and tucker entertaining
a thousand mining men, is an oppor>
tunity we must not miss while we
live.
''The cricket may creek
And the froglet may frog
And the farmer may chant his strain"
Bnt, the get-up-and-go
That our citizens show
Gives sluggards and bummers a pain.

TIE immense depth of snow still
living between here and Neihart is
delaying the sending out of a corps
of engineers to locate the Montana
Midland line. But for the back
wardness of the season work long
ere this would have commenced.
These draw backs are discouraging
to our people. Yet they are un-
avoidable. When the season fairly
| opens we will witness an era of pros
perity dawn on this portion of the
state that has seldom be seen any
whese in the west. Let us have
patience. The eminent men who
are inaugurating these improvements
have no reason to place themselves
repeatedly on record in declaring
that a railroad will come to this place
from Helena, or one from Neihart,
if they did not mean it. From every
indication at present, we will have
the Neihart branch this season, and
the Helena road next year, just as
sure as to-morrow's Il will rise

IT WENT WITH THE POSE.

by the Sober Girl Student.
An indianapolis artist who has won
prestige in eastern art circles tells the
following incident which occurred in a
New York studio of much celebrity: A
large class of women and girls were
sketching from a model. a young
Italian. who was posed with his
head thrown back, his arms Enthusiastically
wreathed over his head and his legs ex-
tended in some sort Of wild Bacchanal
caper.
The indianapolis woman was sketch
ing the models shoulder when she OBJ
served that lie was smiling at her in a
very familiar manner. Somewhat dis
concerted to discover that she had ap-
p~arently made Il conquest OF this guile
less child of Italia, she began to sketch
his knee. as more remote from the artll-
lery of his sentimental glances. In a
remote corner of the Don giggling
arose, and she perceived that the smiles
of the firtatious model We're taking eff
feet upon some lively girls among the
students. They subsidized shortly, but
the Young Italian still continued firing
off smiling chances in every direction.
At about the center of the class was a
German girl, serious to h core, alb
sorbed in her work, and fierce in her
manner as a female Bismarck. Every
stroke she planted on her easel was de-
cisive and almost combative. Suddenly
she came under the battery of the 1tal-
ian's smiles, and without an instant
hesitation her voice rang out like a
clarion:
you schtop hat schmiling; We don't
want you to schmile.'
The figure of the model relaxed in
simultaneously and he stood straight as
an arrow before the class, the impersona-
ton of offended and wrathful dignity.
After an appalling silence he remarked
in the severeSt tones:

a wife stand in the way; at least such
is the fact in regard to a certain section
foreman on the Columbia and Puget
Sound road. He applied for the posi-
ton to Assistant Superintendent Nc
Cabe, and his answers to that gentle
mans queries were all satisfactory until
the question came:
care you married? We want a mar
ried man to take the position, so that
his wife can take care of the section
house."
The man acknowledged that he still
wandered in the wilderness of celibacy,
and Mr.. McCabe said in a peculiar way.
"Well, you a have the job if you
get married i'll time. Hurry up and I'll
give you passes for the $50 train"
1t was then half past 4, and it seemed
pretty short notice, but some men can
get through a great deal Of business in
an hour. Before the time had arrived
for the train to leave the applicant re-
turned accompanied by a blushing bride
and said:
"Well, I've got a wife. Will you give
me those passes?'
Filled with admiration at the mans
readiness of resource, Mr.. McCabe gave
him the passes and the happy couple left
on their honeymoon.-Seattle POst-Intel-

with her other articles of mer-
rhandise. This last move proved n
drawing card, and soon Clara's stand
became favorite resort for the en-
ployes of the senate, who assembled
there every noon hour and ate her home

pure country milk. Occasionally a
United States senator, less dignified
than his colleagues or perhaps more
charitably inclined, would number him
self among her patrons and take his
place at the lunch counter quite like an
ordinary mortal.
Having once catered to such distin-
guished persons it is not strange that
Clara Morris should suddenly discover
that her accommodations were made
quate to the exigencies of her business
So she cast around for larger site and
solicited the assistance of various SEN
ators to aid her in her plan. In addi-
ton to her other qualities of thrift and
enterprise she was endowed with a
wonderful memory, and had not been
around the capitol for more than a week
before she knew the face and name of
every senator. She also made it her
business to know all the officers and
employees. Not man connected with
the senate end of the building could
pass her stand but he was saluted with

Ecrber and Egyptian.

The character of ancient Egyptian
speech is still matter of discussion
among scholars. Very remarkable re-
semblanccs have been noted between
early Aryan and Egyptian words, as
also between the latter and the Turan
ian vocables A large number of
Semitic terms also appear in Egyptian,
generally regarded as foreign. but in
Guiding the names of colors, numbers
and others, which it is difficult to sup
pose would have been borrowed. The
syntax and pronouns of the Egyptian
are much nearer to Semitic speech than
to either Aryan or Turanian, and the
view held by the late DIR. Birch, and
which appears destined to prevail, is
that Egyptian was remotely akin to the
earliest Semitic speech On the other
hand, the connection of the Berber dia-
lects with Coptic, aud thus with
Egyptian, has long been remarked, and
was recognized from the first by Cham
pollion when he recovered the vocatu-
larry of the ancient language. AS in
stances of this connection we may

Senator" rs the case might be. Thus
Clara Morris kept herself ever before
them and had no hesitancy in calling
upon all her friends when she needed
anything. But the location for
larger stand was harder to find than
she had thought Her senatorial al
lies did all they could to help her in the
matter. Their willingness to aid her
was apparent, but there really was no
place suitable for her purpose on the
senate side. Then she reluctantly
turned her gaze towards the other end
of the capitol, and continued her quest
on the house side. Here she was more
successful and an excellent place was
discovered in the antechamber leading
out from the rotunda into the statuary
hall. Out of the profits of her little
stand in the senate corridor she pur-
chased counter and showcase and en-
larged her stock substantially. That her
selection of stand was good one was
evidenced by the fact that business was
active from the start and in even great
er proportions than her first venture.
Soon she familiarized herself with first
the faces, and then the names of the
numerous representatives. This, of
course, was more difficult than to be-
come acquainted with the fewer sena-
tors; bu; in very short time it was ac-
complisiied ai.S the name of every mem.

FAMOUS HOLIDAYS.
Some of tho Old Anniversaries That Should
Not BE Forgotten.

NOU DC EoTSOtteHs
Our independence day casts into OBJ
livion in this country some famous old
holidays and holy days that ought not
to be forgotten. Who that speaks IA
miliarly of the dog days" remembers
that the third of the month is the first
of these famous days-the day on which
Sirius, .e Dog star, first comes into
conjunction with the sun. July was
the old midsummer day; it has lost that
honor now, however, June "a having
received it instead, although that is st.
Johns day, and only three days later
than the summer solstice, which marks
the scientific beginning of summer. The
7th of this month is the feast day of st.
Thomas Beckett, who, though famous
saint for years, is now remembered
chiefly as the cause of the pilgrimage
to Canterbury which Chaucer has i'm
mortalized.
Saint Swithin's Day came on the 18th
of the month; if it rains then, it will
rain on the forty days following Swith-
in was bishop of Winchester, and died
July 2, S62, leaving directions that he
should be buried in the churchyard of
his cathedral, so that the rain might
fall on his grave. Some years after
ward the monks desired to move the re-
mains into the cathedral and fixed on
July Is for the translation, hlt for forty
days it rained steadily. so that they
could not open the grave, and at the
end of the fortieth day they decided
that the saint preferred to stay out in
the wet.
ST. Margaret's Day is celebrated on
the Goth. She was a maiden of Antioch,
loved by Olybius, but she refused him
because he was a pagan. He tried to
| put her to death with cruel torments,
but an earthquake prevented the tor
lures, and dove from heaven set a
crown of gold upon her forehead, where
| at five thousand spectators were con-
verted to Christianity. But Olybius
executed her just the same. She is the
patroness Of women in childbirth, sue
| ceeding Juno, who, under the name OF
Lucinda, was prayed to by the Roman
mothers.
| st. James and st. Christopher share
July % between them. In some parts
of England the apple trees are blessed
on this day, which is said also to mark
the success or failure of the hop crop.
St Anne, the mother of the Virgin
Mary, is worshiped on July 26. She
was the third daughter of Matthew, a
priest, and Mary, his wife, and was
married to Joachim in Galilee. Their
wedding ring was kept by the nuns OF
st. Anne in Rome, and worked miracles.
1t was stolen during the sacking of the
city in 1924, but was brought back by q
crow, which laid it upon stone where
the nuns found it.
The last day of the month is the feast
of st. Ignatius Loyola, the founder OF
the wonderful. Society of Jesus, who
died on this day in 1866. Certainly THU
month ends nobly, with the holy day O

DOWN Win THE BOSSES.

candidates for Mayor the Examiner as

principal strength from the Renp ,,,,,,Icans
The canvass indicates ma. Democrats are
1aSSs..'}sE 10 the NOn-Partisans in large num-
bers. The rank and file OF the Democratic
party is not much better satisfied with the
municipal nominations than are the Repub-
licars. 1t seems necessary to remind our
con temporary that objections to the Demo
cratic ticket are based not so much on the
character of the individuals nominated as
upon the methods employed TO secure their
nominations. The Non-Partisans are strlk-
ing at methods which enable a boss TO name
ticket without the cooperation or consent
Of the masses of the voters In the party
Neither of the old party tickets was NOM
mated by a convention in the selection OF
delegates TO which the voters had a voice.
Pretty much all the votes cast at either
primary were cast by repeaters The
masses did not turn out TO vote for the SIM
pie reason that the repeaters were organized
to overcome any honest vote that might be
cast. i is idle to talk about reform in the
city government while bosses name all the
tickets that are placed before the voters.
The Non-PaTtisan movement appeals to the
Democrats as strongly as TO Republicans.
If we admit that the Democratic bosses
have put some good names on the ticket,
the fact does not relieve the party from the
odum OF being under boss rule.
