High Toned Prospectors.

We noticed the clerks in Bran
denburg & Van Gasken's store very
busy one day this week sacking up
about ton Of supplies. We sup
posed it was some big outfit laying
in stock for the winter. Investiga-
ton developed the fact that it was
only a prospector's outfit for a few
weeks in the hills-the prospect
ors being A. B. Baines, Tim. Gala
han and H.. S. Baines. They were
preparing for a trip to Grouse
Mountain and Libby to do assess
ment work on some properties in
which they are interested, and to do
little prospecting on the side.
VanGasken declares that the
boys took their perfumery bottles
and other toilet articles along, and
was about as high toned an outfit
as he has rugged out for a long
time

Black Tail Mountain.

The Hope Prospector is authority
for the statement that $4,000 worth
Of ore was taken out of the "Black
Jack" claim on Blacktail mountain,
near Hope, in six days. The claim
is owned by Hope parties. Several
properties on Blacktail mountain
are looking fine. An eight inch
vein Of rich gray copper was recent
ly struck in the Poorman, owned
by Becker & Swanson. The Silver
Wave group, owned by the Pend u
Oreille Mining Co., whose principal
stockholders live in Cleveland Ohio,
will spend several thousand dollars
developing their properties in the
next few months. The Prospector
thinks that Blacktail mountain
will produce much ore in the next
six months.

NOT DEAD
Remarkable. Experience
of John Turk, a Pio-
neer of Helena.
80 Doses Taken at Once Did
Not XIII, but Succeeded
In Curing Him.

John Turk, Cascade, Montana, look 80
doses Of : so-called "san Francisco Quack's
Medicine" at once, and was not killed,
a. promised BY rival doctors. In septsm-
Der, 1889. he called on DR.. A. G. Stoddart,
H,ab;n % Shy : p;,n 70; Dr.; s1s1iE E,s d Co.;
and Butte City, who had Offices for two
weeks at the Merchants Hotel, Helena.
Mr.. Turk had suffered for years with
rheumatism, Impurity Of Blood and effects
of mereurial Salvation. He had four Of
tho best PHYSICIANS in Montana attend him,
and they failed to relieve him. DR.. stod-
dart examined him, sent his prescriptions
to Liebig Dispensary, San Francisc0. to be
prepared. After Dr.. stoddart left, Mr..
Turk met tho local doctors and told them
what he had done. They laughed at him,
ana said that San Francisco quaok would
kill him." He was 90 frightened that whom
the medicine from San Francisco came he
put the bottle upon a shelf at his house,
707 Park st eet, Helena. and it stood neg
lscted until Decembsr (nearly three
months) while Mr.. Turk suffered day mi
night, had not slept half an hour at q time
in years. Being in great agony late in
December, at midnight. his eya caught
sight of the so-called "Quack's?" medi-
cine; (THE QUACK HAPPENS TO HAVE THE
MONTANA MEDICAL LICENSE AND Is 4 DULY
TANA.) He, in desperation decided to kill
himself with the "Quaok's" medicine, as
he was told by former attending doctors il
would kill him, so hs swallowed half a
months medicine at once-39 doses-and
fell asleep, slept until noon next day, and
never has had q pain or ache since.

Redeeming FlOrida Land.

1t is not generally known that thou
sands of acres of land under water in
Florida are being gradually restored and
used for planting sugar cane and rice.
Hamilton Disston, of Philadelphia, the
we'll known manufacturer, has been in
terested in the reclamation of land
is Florida for many years, l saw him
recently at the Fifth Avenue Hotel and
he said that the State gave the company
half of the land it restored.
"HaVe many acres been redeemedp
"Already several hundred thousand
acres Rave been decided to the company, I"
he said, "and the work is still going on.
We have sugar cane plantation con.
tanning ten thousand acres. The land
produces the finest cane IN the world,
and seed cane has to be used only once
in a number of years. About six thou
sand pounds of sugar are produced per
acre, for which we usually get four cents
pound.
"lt is only a question of time when
nearly all the overhowed lands in Florida
will be reclaimed, and sugar and rice
will be produced in great quantities. -

An Ingenious RObber.

Kuhn, the great German naturalist,
informs that in the year 1893 some
monks who kept bees observing that
they made unusual noise lifted up the
hive, when an animal flew out, which to
their great surprise-for they at first
took it to be bat-proved to be a
deaths head hawk moth, and he re en-
bers that several, some years before, had
been found deal in the bee houses.
Huber also, in 1904, discovered that it
made its way into his hives aud those
of his vicinity aud robbed them of their
honey.
In Africa, we are told, it has the same
propensity, which the HOttentots observ-
ing, in order to monopolize the honey Of
the wild bees, have induced the colonists
to believe that it inficts mortal wound.
This moth has the faculty Of emitting Il
remarkable sound, which Huber sup
poses may produce an effect on the bees
somewhat similar to that produced by the
voice of their queen. AS socE as ut.
tered, this strikes them motionless, and
then the moth is enabled to commit with
impunity much devastation in the midst
of myriads of armed bands,-CasselS I

JEB's HoRsEHAIR SNAKE.

Jeb took horsehair every day and rushed
down to the lake 81
And threw it in and watched 10 see it change
into a snake: /
He'd seen little snakes in puddles that
looked like horsehairs. so
He thought all horsehairs would be snakes
if they had time to grow. ,
Every time it rained the highway cleaned
with temporary lakes
All perturbed with writhng horsehairs
which had been turned into snakes;
They looked like snakes, they looked like
hairs, and Jeb he said the rain
Had turned the horsehairs into snakes-'twasi
easy to explain.
So he put horsehairs in the lake and watched
from day to day
70 see them turn to wriggling snakes and
swim and crawl away,
But though he gazed intently with eyeballs
tense and strained,
The horsehairs still were horsehairs and as
horsehairs still remained.
Perhaps we all are much like Jed-beside
lifes sheltered lakes
We watch for harmless horsehairs to turn
into noxious snakes,
The kissing vipers of the soul, theserpents Of
the brain,
Are mostly fangless horsehairs aud will ever
so remain

A chivalrous man is trying to awaken
a little interest in Mrs. Columbus in this
anniversary of the discovery that made
her consort famous. He tells us that
she was Miss Palestrello, which is in &.
finitely more distinguished than plain
Mrs. Columbus. Her father was a navi-
gator, and as girl she made many haz.
ardous voyages in company with him.
She possessed fine education and was
brainy, ambitious woman. 1t may be
possible that she suggested the Western
excursion TO her lord and master, and
spurred him on to his discovery, like
plenty of other good wives to whom the
husbands owe their fame.

Found a MastOdOn Tusk.

The tusk of huge mastodon has been
discovered at Darlington, ten miles north
of Charlottesville, Ind. The find proves
to be much better than was at first
thought, and promises to be one Of the
finest ever made in this country. The
tusk was discovered in digging a we'll at
the residence CT George Lynch. The
tusk was struck by the drill, and so per-
feet did the ivory seem to be that they
decided that it had commercial value
and concluded to dig it up. They dug
down to it, about twelve feet under
ground, and found that the tusk that
they had struck was at least twelve in
ches in diameter, and even on the out
side was almost perfectly preserved. The
men have already unearthed about four
feet of the tusk and have found no sign
of an end either way. Judging from
that already in view, the tusk is about
fourteen feet in length, and the finders
are confident in their belief that the skull
and other bones will be found in a like
state of preservation, as the whole is sub
merged in living water aud covered with
clean, pure sand. Several geologists of
this and other cities will make every ef-
fort to get it out and mount it for the
college museum.-St. LOUIS Republic.

Took Her Without Arms.

One of the strongest cases of love and
devotion which has ever taken place in
Ohio was exemplihed recently in Kill
buck Township by the marriage of Alvin
Nitsche, German, aged thirty-twO
years, and Miss Lille NJ. Lowe, aged
seventeen years. Nltsche was a devoted
lover of Miss Lowe in 1890, when she
was only fifteen gears old, aud when she
met with the horrible accident while
driving a moving machine, in which
she was thrown before the cutter-bar
and both arms were cut of. She lin
gered between life aud death for "a long
time, but eventually got past danger.
She feared her lover would desert her on
account of her aiiiiction, and this gave
her much uneasIness; but she misjudged
him, as he renewed his VOWS after she
got her artificial arms, and was more
devoted than ever, and did everything
possible to Tighten her suBeung.-Saa

The inventor of the "whaleback"
steamer, Captain McDougall, of West
Superior, Wis, thinks that his type of
vessel will make more formidable man
of.war than anything aAoat, especially
for coast and harbor defense. He has
had number of pictures made of his
idea OF belligerent whaleback. They
are to be so constructed that in action
they can be entirely submerged, except
q small turret and the bow. In the bow
are to be stationed two heavy guns, one
of which can be run out and fired, while
the other is drawn back for loading. The
vessel has been patented in this and all
foreign countries.

Says the Gossipper in the New York
World: "One who witnessed the fire
drill by Tiffany & Co. IS clerks during the
recent blazs which threatened the great
jewelry store tells me it was one OF the
best specimens of human mechanism he
ever saw. At the first sign of fire the
store was cleared of customers and the
clerks took positions assigned them in
practice, At the first signal the heavy
iron shutters were closed, next the hose
was uncoiled, and at the third command
the jewelry was deposited in the various
safes. There was no confusion, no con-
flicting orders or excitement. This ad
mirable drill undoubtedly saved the firm
from heavy loss, as, had panic taken
place, the result may easily be imag-
ined."

The firing of the Miantonomoh's big
guns without damage scores another
naval triumph for the United States, is
the boast of the San Francisco Examiner.
Several of the English ships carrying
large guns have found that the discharge
OF their own batteries was the greatest
danger they would have to fear in action
there being certainty that few
rounds would send the vessel to the bot
tom. The Miantonomoh will evidently
be able to hurt something else than
itself,

THE STATION DESPAIR.

We must trust the conductor, most surely
Why millions of millions before
Have made this same journey securely
And come to that ultimate shore.
And we, we wal reach il in season;
And ah, what welcome is there
Reflect, then, how out of all reason
To stop at the station Despair
Ay, miduights and many potion
OF trouble and sorrow have we,
As we journey from ocean to ocean,
From sea unto ultimate sea,
To that deep sea Of seas, and all silence
OF passion, concern, and Of care,
That vast sea of Eden-set islands
Don't stop at the station Despairl
Go forward, whatever may follow,
Go forward, friend, led or alone;
Ah, me, to leap off in some hollow
Or fen, in the night and unknown,
Leap of like thief; try to hide you
From angels, all waiting you therel
Goforwardl whatever betide you,
Don't stop at that station Despair
