Some SNomen's Pot Ayersions.

An English magazine the other day asked women to tell what they consider their pet aversion, Here are some of tn answers received: "The endless discus sion of the Irish question" "A formal lunch party" My pet question has no name or being, yet I see her plainly with my spirits eye. There she sits, al ways neat and unruffied, ever wearing that serene smile which makes me long to shake her, if only to see how she would look then. Always conscientious, always kind, her worst fault is that she has no fault" My pet aversion is the fgdgety, tidy woman" Cows, of coursel If only knew what that long and steady stare meansl But don't, and mystery commands awe"

The Cruiser Sank, Not the Box.

Admiral Tryon's dispatch box, which was found floating after the Victoria had foundered. was specially made to con- tain the code of signals. Of course it was desired to keep this code a secret, so in order to provide against the risks of accidents the box was lined with lead and perforated with many holes to in- sure its at once sinking to the bottom of the sea if it happened to come into the water. It would be interesting to know who were the designers of this box, which, being specially constructed to sink, foated safely and is now at the ad- miralty, most practical proof of the fallbility of our so called experts.-Lon- don Truth. ..

HELENA, Feb. s.-Two note worthy feat
ures enlivened the legislative assembly
to-day. One Of these features WAS the
weekly sensation in the senatorial ques-
tion. The sensation was nothing less than
the voting of one of the democrats for W.
F. Sanders, tho republican candidate for
senator.
This surprising switch was made by
Tierney, representative from Meagher
county. Tisrney is the father of the hill
for the creation of Broadwater county out

ties.
II was understood that tho Clark demo
Gratis would see the bill through, but in
stead of that they defeated it in commit.
tee last night.
The majority Of tho committee made q
report unfavorable to the bill. A minority
report favorable to the bill was made by
VanClcve, republican,; Bonner, Dixon,
democrat, and Tierney. The failure Of
the Clark people 10 keep their promise was
the reason to-day that Tierney surprised
the joint assembly and tho spectators by
declaring his vote for Wilbur F. Sanders.
Mr.. Tierney Is a strong, sturdy democrat
and IL is not likely that no would have
voted as he did unless sure tho vote would
not elect Sanders. Ticrney's switch shows
that il is slender thread which holds tho
Clark forces together, and II In only by
endless promises. close watching and tho
expectation of decisive action very soon

Tierney. however, will probably discover
by to-inorrow that there Is plenty of good

vote against those who, with their usual
lavishness in the way OF promises. had
promised both sides on the Broad.
