HER SIZE WAS TOO GREAT
The Death of q Woman Who Tipped tho
Beam at Half Thousand.

Beam at Half q Thousand.
PHILADELPHIA, April 9.--One Of the cham
pion fat women OF the world will have her
funeral frem house in Liberty court, Tenth
street below Vine. this afternoon. Margaret
DAILY, the colored woman, who died there
Thursday, could tip the scales at 500 pounds.
Although so valuable an attraction for mu-
scum managers she successfully resisted the
temptation of sitting on platform and Win
ming admiration and an easy competence.
She was Al years old and we'll known in the
neighborhood.
The funeral to-day will not be without its
exacting features, for the coffin will be of
Brobdig guagian proportions, and it will make
close squeeze to get the huge casket
through the doorway OF the little house.

Vote for Great Falls.

MAYER and Wilson have done what
they could to bring Main street up to
the standard survey. They have graded
that portion across the Copper Bottom
lode, raising it about thirty inches above
the old grade.

A bear hunt has been planned by local
Esaus and Nimrods, to do a part of

Letter.

NEIHART, Montana, Oct. 12, 1892
Gentlemen and fellow citizens: |
will herein call your attention to a law
passed by the American Congress in the
early part of the republic, when the good
of the people was the object of legisla-
ton as follows:
Any person holding any office, or any
stock in any institution of the nature Of
a bank, for issuing or discounting bills
or notes, payable to bearer, or order,
cannot be a member Of this body (Con-
oress) whilst he holds such Office or
stock.
Signed by GEORGE WASHINGTON,
President of the L. S., 1893.
Do you think, fellow citizens of this
great republic, that our present house Of
congressman would pass such a bill!
Decidedly not.
According to Moses w. Field, NJ. c.,
our COHSTcSS Is lldtc up It's lolioNS.
1870 bankers, 80 lawyers, IA merchants,
Is manufacturers, 7 doctors, 4 mechan-
les and not a single farmer or day labor
err. Think of the above as a body to
lcgislate on our finances. You will
readily see why so much evil and suffer
ing has been brought upon the country.
Fellow citizens, by your W violation
of that wise law made for your protec-
ton, you have been electing bankers and
bondholders to congress to legislate on
the finance of this country, and the re-
suit is what? They have made two
kinds of money for the country. One
for the bOndholder and banker, which is
gold and a legal tender for all debts,
public and private, and one for the
people, who produce all the wealth Of
the nation, which is silver and green
backs, and not a legal tender for all
debts, which even your W government
will not accept at its full face value, nor
nor will the bondholders accept it as in
terest on the bonds he bought with his
gold at a premium of $1.S5, which
law he was so interested in having passed
made gold worth so much over and
| above the peoples money.
Fellow citizens, have we no allowed
this thing long enough? think you
will all agree with me and be careful in
the future to vote men to office who will
legislate in the interest of the people
whom they represent.
]. P. FIsTER.

Blank books and office supplies at

Water Works Assured,

The Brady Bros. have closed the last
deal which ~insures us a fine system of
water works, and that Immediately. The
system adopted as previously explained
in the HERALD, is to bring the supply
from O'Brien creek, the head being OBJ
tanned by IA large substantial dam one
and a half miles above town. This
This gives the company, when maines
hotel, and 200 feet at the mouth of o.
Bricn creek. They will be able to get
100 feet of fall on VIM. Mueller's town
site at the upper limit of town. Lowry
& Shaw have been awarded the contract
for furnishing all iron, piping and fix
lures necessary for the company, the
main pipe line consisting of 10000 feet
of standard cast iron pipe, 10 inches in
side and weighing 80 pounds to the foot
at the point of greatest pressure. The
whole will weigh $50 tons.
There will be placed 20 hydrants
along this line for the protection of
property, so that any house in town can
be reached by a good fire service. The
order for the piping left on Tuesdays
train and the work of laying pipes
will be well under way by the 10th of
November. There is no longer question
as to the securing of "a good water supply
and the Brady Bros. are to he commend
ed on this display of enterprise.

One Mans Il d

There used to be in London-and
may still be, who knOws?-an eccen
trio old gentleman whose delight
was the sight of a pretty foot 1t he
saw one, no matter whether the
owner were old or young, handsome
or ugly, poor or rich, clad in purple
or in rags, he would follow it SO long
as it continued to trip, tread or drag
itself along! And if perchance its
chaussure were down in sole, and its
owner were longingly to linger i'll
front of a shoe and boot store, then
this eccentric old gentleman would
come forward and humbly ask per
mission to present it with a covering
worthy of its beauty.
Sometimes the offer was rejected,
sometimes it was accepted. The
boots-or sEoes-were then duly tried
on, bought and paid for. And our
eccentric old friend thought himself
amply rewarded by being allowed to
be present at the trying on. He de-
sired no other acknowledgment of
his charity-for charity it frequently
was-but with a final bow to the
newly shod foot he retired and was
not seen again until another little
foot tempted him to repeat the
scene.-Exchange.

ton, which to see was to wish to possess.
THE walls were decorated in a most
pleasing manner and all the arrange
ments displayed both taste and tact on
the mart of the committee. A fortune
teller occupied Il teepee and said nice
things about the visitors for a %pittance.
A fish pond was arranged where one
could drop a line and get almost any
thing but town lots for ten cents. The
following persons managed the depart
ments as follows: Mrs, w. II. Banks,
fish pond; Mrs. j. S. Cook, Mrs. Anna
Pierse and Miss Lizzie Cline, table of
fancy work; Mrs. AL. Barker Lemonade

Barker, table of notions; Miss Anna
Baker, confectionery; Miss Mary Ham

and Miss Lizzie Kline, fortune teller,
Mrs. Hunt and Miss Lizzie White, sand
witches. coffee and-ice cream.
Mrs. r. NJ. Raymond acted as general
manager. The whole affair was a grand
success and was a unique departure from
the routine of our social regime. 1t is
hoped thet these ladies will hold another

to the participants. At the close of the
second night "A social hop was given

Hot Climates.

Which is the very hottest region
of the globe is disputed warmly some
times by travellers. The thermome-
ter will not decide, in the sense we
refer to, because local conditions
have such great influence on our
feeling of misery. Those who have
been quartered at Alden would not
allow that any spot on this upper
earth can be more awful than that.
But unfortunates who have dwelt in
Scinde mock the terrors of Alden.
Visitors to Bushire, in the Persian
gulf, talk lightly Of Scinde; and
Russians assert that there are dis
tricts in central Asia more terrible
than all three.
One would incline to believe them
also if only it were proved possible
to live through a summer III heat
more cruel than that of Scinde, for
instance. Americans also put in a
claim for their great desert. One
thing is assured-that the famous
Sahara does not approach any of
those mentioned. In some parts of
Scinde necessity taught the inhabit-
ants ages ago to invent an appara-
tus for cooling their rooms, which
we were glad to adopt under the
name ''windsail. London Standard.

Virgil and Matte, for all that it takes
to make up vigorous children could not

What He Thought.

As Mrs. LIS nearest neighbOr Was
a hardworking man with a family 60
support by his daily labor, the child
rem were brought uptoe earn an honest
penny and to have a frugal mind.
Many choice bits found their way
from Mrs. LIS table to the plates Of
the children in the next house. One
day she called Carl in and gave him
a large dish heaped with broken
cake and other things that such a
child would delight in and which he
carried carefully and thankfully
home.
Returning a day or two later with
the empty dish, he came in and
stood so long warming himself by
the kitchen fire that at length Mrs.
L. inquired, did you want any
thing, Carl?' To which the little
financier replied, "Well, I thought as
much as could be you'd give me a
penny for bringing home the dish!'

Tending to Politics.

l found the druggist reading a
newspaper and apparently consider
ably excited. A county ticket had
been nominated the day before, and
it turned out that he did not favor
some of the candidates, although of
his party. Notwithstanding I was a
stranger, he began talking local poll
tics to me and was going it strong
when a colored man came in.
Nov, then, what do you want?"
demanded the druggist.
"Quinine, sah-ten cents with"
The druggist went back of the
counter to put it up, still talking
politics, and the longer he talked the
madden he got. I did not pay strict
attention to what he was doing, but
after the negro had gone it struck
me that a mistake had been made.
did that man ask for quinine2" I
asked.
II believe he did, and what on
earth could have possessed that con-
vention to nominate such a man as
Sam Raines for sheriff! u"
Are you sure you gave him qui-
ninel"
why, I presume I did. I'll see
that ticket in Texas before I'll sup
port it,"
my friend" I persisted, Il be-
lieve you gave that man morphine.
Isn't that the label on the bottlel"
Didn't he ask for morphineG"
"No."
"Well, he's got some, confound
him! Here-where'd he go?"
He ran to the door and called,
"Sam! Sam!' and presently the col
Ored man returned.
Sam, what did you ask FORE
"Quinine, sab"
"Well, I guess l gave you NOR
phine. Hand it over and I'll ex-
change it. The idea of putting up
Sam Raines when there was such
good timber. I'll bolt the whole
ticket from top to bottom!'
He made the exchange III such a
cool, matter of fact way that after
the customer had departed l said:
THAT was a arrOw escape for
some one, eh?"
yes; might have killed a niger.
And I'll let that crowd know they
can't stuff no such nominations down
me! It's an outrage, and n which
must be rebuked at the polls as It
deserves New York Herald.

Down OH His Luck.

little red tubs in Grand Circus park,
and lifting it to his lips drank long
and thirstily. Indeed he was still

Great Falls for the Capital.
The South Fork.

The South Fork mine is the property
Of William Cummings and Robert Ora
ham. 1t is situated on the South Fork
of Running Wolf and is about 10 miles
from Neihart. Mr.. Cummins came over
last Friday to attend to some temporary
business and while here our reporter
visited his cabin. There were on his
table two lead bricks, weighing nearly a
pound apiece. There was a peck meas
ure full of fine carbonate and sulphide
ore and some assay papers spread on the
table. Mr.. Cummins does not prevari-
cate nor initiate his w prospects, but
the description of the case which he gave
is as follows: The South Fork, where he
procured the above is developed by two
shafts Is and 80 feet deep respectively,
and about 600 feet apart. They sink on
the same vein. The latter is the result
of this summers development, and has
produced the ore we examined. 1t eX-
poses a vein 3 feet wide, with one foot
of ore running as high as so ounces in
lead, and carrying ) to Is ounces of
siver. 1t lies in a fissure vein, covered
by a Gaping of copper and iron, and is
free smelling. The bricks he showed
were produced over his camp fire. Mr..
Cummins expressed his present intention
of working the property all next winter
and of building a small smelter there to
reduce his ore. Billy has worked hard
in these mountains to make a stake and
it is the confident hope that he will
realize it off the South Fork mine.
