between Harry Thompson, Doc
Hanson and others wants to be
done now The sporting editor of
this paper has turned the stakes
over to Spaulding of the Missoulian,
simply to give him, the said S. E.
chance to bet-in other words to
back his favorite. Mr.. Thompson
gave us private exhibition Of his
powers and among other acts skated
first on one leg and then on the
other and between the two showed
himself considerably much Of a
man. His great act of making a
letter IS" out Of his left leg, with
his right turned gracefully around
his neck and thus skating two laps
and half without drawing breath
is one hard to excel. Our money is
up on Thompson, especially if he is
/ properly coached Hanson, the
star skater, well-in fact, when he
gets to going as a high-roller, Bill
meyer is no where. We are anx,

before the Fourth of July and we
are backing Brother Thompson
man and money ready. Now lei

headed editor do business or let him
get off the stool.

Joke on Senator Allen.

Benatbr Squire played Il scurvy
trick on Senator John B. Allen one
time. They were travelling from
Washington: It was night says
the Spokane Spokesman, and the
train stopped at a station in Mis-
souri,, whore large, heavy woman
entered the sleeper looking for 4
bearth.
Squire pokcd his head out be-
I tween the curtains, and, seeing the
ponderous lady; sa}ds
Madam, the births are all take17s
but if you wish you can occupy
the one just nnder me, where
my little 10y is sleeping"
This was satisfactory to the Mis-
souri amazon, wliu removed her
shoes and then swung around into
the bunk. Just about this time the
disturbed occupant attempted to
rise to see what the intrusion meant
With one fell swoop of her palm
she clapped squarely over the gen.
tleman's mouth, saying! "There,
little boy, don't speak. Your father
said | could sleep here.''
Again the :'little boy" attempted
to rise, and this time managed to
say:
Madam, I want to tell YOU that
Pm no boy"
"Who are you, then?'
"Why, Pm Senator Allen FROM
the state of Washington" he ex-
claimed:
ooh, Lord!" she yelled; and
sprang up and dashed out Of the
car, exclaimingj to the consterna-
lion Of everyone but Squire. Oh,
Lordl what would Hiram say if he
knew?"

Weasel Killed.

Billings lines.
While under-Sheriff Will Ramsey
was at Saltwater Thursday; an cid :
eTly man, named Frank Casey, vols
unfairly surrendered himself to HIM
as a prisoner. Casey, who is a
sheep herder for Milo Collins, said
he had shot a Crow Indian by the
name of Weasel in self-defence and
wished to give himself up. Collins
is married to daughter of Weas' :
and Casey's story is that Wease4
came to Collins ranch on the res
|ervation above Saltwater, with the
avowed purpose Of killing both
Collins and Casey: He proceeded
to put his threat into exeetutoa,
and started for Casey with knife
that looked about four feet long:
Casey drew a six shooter and shot
Weasel dead. He then set out for
Billings, but meeting the officer at
saltwater gave himself up. He
carried a Winchester to protect him
self from reprisals Of any avenging
Crows. US. Commissioner Camp
bell postponed the hearing to Sat-
urday and wired U. S. District At

Fortunately the supreme codrt
now holds that the U. S. courts

offences committed on reservations

The Bi- Metallic.
Philipsburg Mail.

It is now evident that the Ri-
Metallic mill will be shut down
entirely until the new reel shaft
arrives and is put in position at the
mine. About halfof the mill hands
have alread y been laid off, and be-
fore the close Of the present week
several more will be given a rest
until operations are again under
way at the mine. It is thought
the shaft will arrive some time
next week and within fifteen days
all the works will be under way as
usual, therefore the effect of the
shutdown will scarcely be noticed.
In the meantime the mill will be
given a thorough overhauling and
repairing, so that when the hoist
can run again the reduction works
will be in frst-class trim.

Strange Marriages.

Catholic Union.
At the far end Of Naples lies the
church of Santa Maria Anunciata
which once a year, on the day 0:
Our Lady, wakes into a brief :, life
and excitement. In a silent row
before a high alter kneels thirty
girls all in black garments, with
folded hands and eyes fixed on the
picture of Madunna before them.
These are orphans from the
neighborhood foundling asylum
and once year all those who have
reached the age Of Is, are brought
here to the church and may he
chosen in marriage by any honest
man whose character is good.
At the door leading to the sac
risty leans a gray-haired priest, the
head of the asylum. BY and by a
man makes his way from the back
of the church and hands him a
little packet Of papers. These the
priest reads carefully, and being
evidently satisfied, he gives back
the papers and leads the applicant
toward the row of girls.
All eyes are fixed more stead
fastlv than ever on the alter, all
their hands are clasped tighter to-
gether, their faces turn a shade
paler, their hearts beat quicker as
the young man walk slowlys along
the row. At last he stops. His
choice is made. He stretches out
his hand with little smile. The
girl rises, puts her hand into that
of the stranger, and together they
disappear into the sacristy. The
ice being thus broken other suitors
come forward.

Reclamation Of Arid Lands.

The reclamation of alkaline 'ands
at Fresno, California, has been eff
fected by Mr.. John S. Dore, in a
simple and inexpensive way, ac@
cording to the Sacramento Bee.
Mr. Dore had a vineyard of sixty
acres, planted in 1888 The vine-
yard was irrigated at the surface
as soon as planted; and since then
sub irrigation has been used. The
land being spotted with alka]i,
Mr.. Dore selected q spot about am
apricot tree which had died, and
sent soil from different depths to-
three feet to Professor Hi]gard, Of
the state university for analysis
The analysis showed the samples,
at the surface to be much inlpreg-.
rated with alkali, while some
distance below the amount was
said to be merely sufficient to act.

upon mixed the surface soil With
that Of son7e six and eight inches
below and thereafter secured a good
growth of vines.

Early Spring.
The New North West

Anent the winter, an old noun
taineer told the New Northwest last
fall that we were sure to have an
unusually early spring. The other
day he repeated his prediction and
added that he based his knowledge
on the movements Of the squirrels.
He watched them closely during
the fall and early winter and as
certained they made very little
provision for winter. The pinon
nuts constitute their supply Of cold
weather food, and, preceding very
hard winter, they will collect great
quantities of them and bury them
quite deep in the ground. Preced-
ing a mild and short winter, how
ever, they will collect few if any
nuts, and merely pile them in little
heaps on the surface, only to lose
them to the rapacious appetites Of
the bears, which, knowing the
squirrels habits, depend upon them
in this way for their regular meals
"This year," continued the New
Northwest's informant ''the squir-
rels followed the mild winter pro-
gram, and you can depend upon it
the worst Of the cold weather is
over" It will be interesting to
note the success or failure Of the
squirrel sign.

number is steadily increasing. Mr.

but has refused all.
The bufalos were born lucky and
are going to see the worlds fair free
Of charge. Commissioner Walter

wanted and space will be arranged
for them on the grounds: At least
two car loads will be Sent, leaving
a few scrubs behind to propagate
the species in cass the wicked city
