An Editors Mistake.

The editor of weekly journal
lately lost two of his subscribers to
accidentally departing from the
beaten track in his to cor
respondents. Two of his subscribers
wrote to ask him his remedy for their
respective troubles. No. l, a
happy father of twins, wrote to in
quire the best way to get them safely
over their teething, and No. 2,
wanted to know how to protect his
orchard from the myriads of grass
hoppers. The editor framed his
upon the orthodox lines, but
unfortunately transposed theirnames,
with the result that No. l, who
was blessed with the twins, read in
reply to his query. "Cover them
carefully with straw and set fire to
them, and the little pests after jump
ing about in the flames a few minutes
will speedily be settled" Whilst
No. 2, plagued with grasshoppers,
was told to "Give a little castor oil,
and rub their gums gently with a
bone ring"

PRESS COMMENT.

SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE: On
the 9th of July the Duke of York,
the heir presumptive to the British
crown, will marry Princess May of
Teck, who was bethrothed to the
Duke of Clarence, now deceased, the
then eldest son of the Prince of
Wales. The fact of the Princess
May accepting the hand of the
brother of the deceased prince has
created considerable comment in
England, but Henry Labouchere
puts the matter very sensibly when
he says that royal marriages can sell
dom be negotiated on a purely senti-
mental basis, and he adds, perhaps
gratuitously, that there is more
prose than poetry about married life
under any circumstances.

Good and Bad Roads Compared.

A Missouri farmer, living eight or
ten miles from market. hauls one ton to
market in one day. Say this ton is
worth $50. The French farmer hauls
five tons at one load, worth 800. So
the French farmer markets five times as
much in one days work as the Missouri
farmer. The postman goes out daily on
all these French roads, letting the farm
ers know every change of market prices.
Do prices rise, the French farmer hauls
to market ut one load 5 to 10 tons and
gets the benefit Of the rise. The Mis-
souri, farmer Gf he hears of the ri"e)
hauls one ton only, and before he can
get any more to market the price falls

Transfer of Music Through Beams.

The following beautiful expert
ment, described by Professor Tyn-
dali, shows how music may be trans
mitted by an ordinary wooden rod.
In a room two floors beneath his lee
ture room there was a piano, upon
which an artist was playing, but the
audience could not hear it. A rod of
deal, with it's lower end resting upon
the sounding board Of the piano, ex-
tended upward through the two
floors, its upper end being exposed
before the lecture table. But still
not a sound was heard.
A violin was then placed upon the
end Of the rod, which was thrown
into resonance by the ascending
thrills, and instantly the music of
the piano was given out in the lee
ture room. A guitar and harp were
substituted for the violin and with
the same result. The vibrations of
the piano strings were communicated
to the sounding board, they traversed
the long rod, were reproduced by the
resonant bodies, the air was carved
into waves, and the whole musical
composition was delivered to the lis
tening audience. American Regis

Pretty Good shot.

Ex-President Hayes was at one
time the target of a Georgia Copfed-
crate. 1t was only by a scratch that
his life was saved and that the Ohio
colonel afterward became president.
The Gene was on the Gouley river
in West Virginia. The Georgian
who took aim was General William
Phillips of Marietta, and the time
was 1861. For several days General
Floyd had been skirmishing with
General Cox's Ohio troops at the
Hawks Nest" a picturesque cliff
rising over 1000 feet from the river
road. One fine morning General
(then Colonel William Phillips heard
a bugle blast near the Hawks
Nest" across the river, and an Ohio
colonel at the head of his regiment
rode out into the river a good dis
lance, as the rocks shelved gradually.
Colonel Phillips selected a long
range rifle from one of his men, and
raising the weapon took deliberate
aim at the Union officer. The dis
lance was great, but Phillips was a
fine shot, and at the crack of the
rifle a plume from the Ohio colonel's
hat futtered out into the water, and
the officer dashed up the bank out of
range.
In 1878 General Phillips was in
Washington and saw the president.
He said something about Hawks
Nest and his aim at an Ohio colo
mel. President Hayes frightened up
and inquired into details. Then the
president said that he was the Ohio
colonel whose hat was grazed by
Phillips bullet. That night General
Phillips took tea at the private table
of the Hayes family.-Exchange.

INDEPENDENT: 1t seems that
newspaper accounts of Uncle Sans
splendid hospitality has spread to
foreign lands at most alarming
rate. The result is a threatened in
hux of immigrants from all govern
ments on both sides of the equator.
We have no objection to receiving
the sultan of lahore, since he will
bring along a nice exhibit of dia-
monds and a rare lot of wives, nor
will we stand in the way of extend
ing Helena's hospitality to a carload
of East Indian princesses. How
ever, we draw a long and distinct
mark on the proposition on opening
wine for those ten Mexican governors
who will visit the fair in a body and
each with a suite of r%etainers. 1t
might be well to give them the free
dom Of the city and provide each
with a pass to the grounds, but in
the name of old Uncle Holman, we
protest against anything more.
Down in Mexico they are lucky to
get more than a cigarette and a
watermelon at any sort of entertain
ment. Let them not think that
Uncle Sam has grown green enough
in his old age to be buncoed for
everything under the name of hos
pitality.
We mention these matters now so
that our board of trade will know
what to do when those seniors stop in
Helena, on their way from the Vel
lowstone Park. A free dip in the
plunge and an exchange of compli-
ments between Governor Richards
and the governors, after gubernator-
ial methods in the Carolinas, should
complete the programme. Aside
from this, our Mexican friends are
informed that we can do nothing for
them.

A Hint to the Speaker.

Abraham Whipple of Rhode Is
land was born in 1888 and was one
of the first to take a hand in the
Revolutionary war. In 1885 he was
elected a representative to the legis-
lature from the town of Cranston.
The advocates of the paper money
system were then in power and had
chosen Othniel Gorton, a clumsy old
man, for speaker.
Gorton was in the habit of keep
ing a large quid of tobacco in one
side of his mouth, which pressed out
one of his cheeks. Most of the de-
baters were on the opposite side of
the hall from that on which Commo-
dore Whipple sat, and the speakers
face was commonly turned that way.
Once in the course of the debate
Whipple had cogitated a speech,
which he waited for an opportunity
to deliver. At last, out of patience,
he rose and called, Mr.. Speaker"
The speaker, whose face was turned
the other way, did not hear him.
He raised his voice to it's utmost,
"Mr. Speaker"
Gorton started, and turning to the
commodore said, Il hear you"
Thereupon Whipple began:
II wish, Mr.. Speaker, you would
shift your quid of tobacco from your
starboard to your larboard jaw, that
it might give your head a cant this
way, so that you could sometimes
hear something from this side of the
house"
Then he went on with his speech.

A Discussion About Eggs.

A heated discussion about eggs took
place in a down town office and an argu-
ment as to the price resulted in a Del
monico dinner. One Of the d~isputants
maintained that eggs cost him 5 cents
apiece, another declared the price to be
4 cents, while a third insisted that they
were selling at Al cents a dozen. The
scent man said he referred to Long
Island eggs laid yesterday, whereupon
the third man undertook to prove that
the hens did not lay yesterday; it was
too cold! The discussion brought out
the fact that ''limed' eggs are worth
about two-thirds as much as ''strictly
fresh Long Island eggs" If an egg has
a soapy taste, it is a "limed" egg-that
is, it has been packed in lime.-New

WE see by the Great Falls dailies
that the wool shipment from that
place this season will far exceed that
of any previous year. There is rea-
son to rejoice at the above, for the
result will be noticeable with banks
and bankers, to the end that the pres
ent stringency in the money market
will be relieved. People of Neihart
are especially glad, for their history
is that when Great Falls prosper
they share a like prosperity.

A Boy Drowned.

Last Monday afternoon as little Har-
ny Philippi was walking home, he went
to cross the railroad track at a point
where the grade had washed away be-
meath and where the creek was rushing
with great violence. In some manner
he lost his balance and fell into the
stream. His father who was walking
some distance ahead of him did not see
him fall but was soon aroused by the
screams of the mother who saw the ac-
cident from the home near by.
The body t1oated rapidly down stream
but the alarm being given a number of
people ran in pursuit and once or twice
it seemed that it would be Overtaken

LEADER: A long railroad circu-
lar has been sent out to the press of
the western states, reciting what the
Chicago newspapers and other agen-
cies have done to keep people away
from the fair as if this had anything
to do with the East between the
people and the railroads. The in
habitants of the west and northwest
know a reasonable railroad rate
when they see it. There is no need
of arguing the case. Montana peo-
pie in moderate circumstances can't
afford to go at the present cost.
They can't spare the price. This
is a fact, not a theory. If the pres
ent rates are maintained the conse-
quence will be double. The mass OF
our people will stay at home and the
railroads viii run light trains.

Ma Danger From Gentlemen,

In Brooklyn the Women's Health
Protective association is taking a
stand against the uncivilized prac-

vehicles. In Philadelphia placards
proclaim bluntly that Men must not
spit on the floor" In Brooklyn, after
consulting the dictionary, it was de-
cided to make the placards read,
Gentlemen will not expectorate on

any gentleman would do it, placard

Imuortonce of Country HIGHWAYS.

The country highways are very nearly
as important as the railroads. They
bear a greater traffic than the railways
themselves. They are nearer to the daily
convenience of all the people. They con-
Germ the social relations, and if good
Danish the isolation of farm life. They
have much more to do with town and
country and the prosperity of both than
anybody appreciates, as would readily
be found if we could have five years ex-
perience of good oads.-Rockford Qlls.)
