GROUSE MOUNTAIN TROUBLE.
The Full Particulars in Regard to
the Mine Jumping.

TROY, Montana. Jan. 12,-Com-
plete particulars in regard to the
claims jumped on Grouse Mountain
on the 1st have been ascertained.
Following are the claims jumped;
The Highland Chief, owned by
VIM. Eaton, Ben Morrow and 9TH
ers. Relocated by Frank johnson
and J. w. Reynolds and named the
Worlds Fair.
The Mineral King, owned by
VIM. Eaton and others. Relocated
by W. F. Brant and Henry Holz-
man and named the Lydia.
The Badger, owned by Jerry
Watson, VIM. Keller and Aims
worth Of Spokane. Relocated by
Gus Stoneberg and others and cal
led the Little Joe.
The Civil Engineer, owned by
WardWell. Relocated by FRANK
Johnson and called the Hillside.
The following claims are relocat-
ed, their original names not known:
Mountain Lion, Grizzly Bear and
Hannah May.
The Great Northwest, the Iron
Cap, the Missoula, the Hiawatha,
the Little Spokane and the Little
Spokane fraction were not jumped
and there is no danger of their be-
ing jumped as the work on them
was done according to law. Your
correspondent finds that the trouble
with the parties who have claims
jumped is that they can not swear
that they have done 800 worth o
work, but will claim that they have
done so many days work, which
falls short of the requirements.
The placers on Keller creek were
jumped also and the water RICH
along with them. These claims
were owned by VIM. Keller, Dav'
Lonely, |. J. Brant and others
The parties who relocated the plac
er claims are Thomas Plunkett
Gus Stoneberg, George Moore, B. W
Bowen, Eli Pick, F. w. Yorkam
F. o. Hansen and John Haley.

Suppress These Unpleasant Cranks.

Suppress These Unpleasant Cranks.
The crank who showered vitriol upon
ladies dresses in the street is known to
fame. The next fellow got step be-
yond that when he stood upon the street
corner and squirted ink all over them.
If a dowdy dressed woman in a rusty
gown passed, that had no attraction for
him. The dress had to be new, elegant
and fashionable, and, above all, costly.
Earlier in fame's record than either of
these is the rowdy who stands on the
street and addresses insulting remarks
to women. The ink and vitriol hurlers
get caught and sentenced to the peniten-
tiary occasionally: the crank who only
talks seldom does. Ladies are only
concerned to pass by quickly and get
away from the annoyance. But they
are wrong. They ought to walk quietly
on till they meet the next policeman and
turn back with him and have the wretch
arrested. One fellow held up to scorn
and punishment would brighten from
the street hundreds of the towards who
insult women.
Most extraordinary of all, though is
the bean shooting crank who has popped
up in Chicago. 1t is suggested that he
is an insane man from Boston But he
does not seem to be crazy. However
that may be, he takes his stand on a
fashionable promenade, just where ladies
must cross a street. AS they lift their
gowns out of the dust he shoots big
lima bean at their ankles from a rubber
sling, hitting them with singing pain.
Itwould be curious study in psychology
to investigate what sort of mind, if
any, a creature has who could do thing
like that.

Tne Real Aluminium.

This beautiful and valuable metal was
at first nearly killed by the extravagant
claims made for it. At present it is
slowly recovering from the depression
that was caused when it was found that
aluminium could not be depended ON to
absolutely take the place of every other
known metal, and mankind is learning
what it really can do.
Its most useful field has been found in
making alloys with copper, iron and
steel especially. It ADDS strength and
hghtness. The fact that you can keep
q piece of aluminium in the midst of
SCOT, gas, sulphur and phosphorus for
years and it will not tarnish is one of its
most valuable qualities. 1t is better than
silver, therefore, for leaf gliding. An in
ventor has lately succeeded in making of
it coating for plating iron. The posi-
bilities opened by the prospect of making
iron implements with finish that will
keep them from rusting are sufficient to
insure a great use for the new metal in
this direction. Our coins of smallest
value ought to be undoubtedly made of
aluminium.
It is true that we are not building
houses and ships of this shining metal
that is, not yet. But an aluminium
yacht has been completed for gentle
man in Paris in which every part is of
this metal. The yacht is a steam vessel
forty-three feet long with only 2 feet 3
inches fresh water draft. tits perhaps not
too much to predict that in generation
more aluminium airships will be plow-
ing the ether as regularly as the ocean
greyhounds now pillow the salt seas. In
Chicago 16-story building has already
been planned that will be upon the out
side one bright sheet of shining alumni
ium. To give stability the inside walls
will be of heavier material. but the out
side will be made of this metal. that
will need no paint or coating and will
be as bright, except for the Chicago coal
smoke, fifty years after it is built as it is
the first day.
In house decoration the new metal is
finding a distinct place. Surgeons use it
for artificial limbs in various appliances
Shining household and cooking utensils
nearly as light as paper, have already
appeared. But if anybody tells you that
ring made of an aluminium alloy worn
upon the finger will cure rheumatism
inform him that this story is great big
whopper.

That was beautiful thought Of
California woman-to plant a heliotrope
hedge all around her yard. This hedge
is at Ventura, Cal, is 200 feet long and
a thing of beauty and fragrance in that
soft southern climate the year round
The plants are attached to a wire sup
port six feet high and present to the
sidewalk wall Of purple flowers. The
sweet odor is diffused through all that
part Of the town. The originator Of
this pleasing idea is Mrs. Shepard, who
says that hedge belongs to the town.
All are at liberty to pluck flowers at
will, and the more they are gathered the
more this wonderful hedge produces. 1t
is real attraction to the city Hello
trope hedges will not grow in every part
Of the Union, but some kind Of "a flower

THE LARDo COUNTRY.
The Prospects are that it will have
the Boom next.

The mammoth discoveries and
operations in the SLOGAN country
during last season so over-shadow-
ed every other camp that little at
tention has been paid to other
districts. But SLOGAN has almost
ceased to be a prospectors country,
and the hundreds of prospectors
and miners that have been to the
Kootenai country during the last
year are looking for other fields.
The Indications now are that they
will turn their attention to the Lar
do and Duncan river districts.
The Lardo or Duncan river district
is named after the Duncan and
Lardo rivers, These streams unite
seven miles above the point where
they empty into Kootenai Lake
The center Of the mining district
is ten to twenty miles up these
streams from the Lake.
The route 10 reach the country
from Bonners Ferry is to 60 by
steamer from here to the mouth Of
the Lardo, where a town has been
started called Lardo. From Lardo
the government has built pack
trails almost into the heart Of the
district.
There wer3 about fifty prospec-
tors who went into the district last
year, but Def |re they had accom-
plished mucI the snow fell and
they had to i've it up. They dis
covered enoigh, however, to deter
mine that lRre were large ore bod
les. The lelges are larger and
more clearly defined than those of
the SLOGAN, hit are Of lower grade.
They can bd traced from two to
ten miles a4ly, and vary in width
from ten to loo feet. The ore is
galena, with some lead carbonates
and will carr from $75 to $3.50 in
silver, while he gold ranges from
mere trace up to $50 a ton.
There has ben no development
f work Of any cpsaqnence but sever
f al prospect hav already been
bonded for $4,000 or $4,000.
The rush to the new camp will
commence in Apr but it is said
that nothing can be done before
f May. All the old prospectors are
f going back. The country offers
as good inducemets to prospectors
as it did last year. 1t is likely that
f it will be as big an as rich a camp
next year as the Slcan was this.

If $25O,OOO can be raised to meet the
added expense, President Norton, of Har-
ward college, has promised that he win
use his influence to have the womens an
mex made an integral part of the univer-
sity. This is glad news to the girls who
take the whole Of some of the Harvard
courses, but are obliged to be content
with a mere certificate to that effect in
stead Of diploma of graduation The
quarter million dollars has been nearly
all raised already, and soon the oldest
educational institution in the country

sexes. Credit must always be given to
the newer western colleges, however.

He tells us in the New England Maya

This is the title of a rather unusual
sort of paper in The Popular Science
Monthly by DR.. Charles w. Pilgrim. He
says, Evidence is not lacking to war
rant the assumption that genius is a spe-
cial morbid condition" This is doubt
full. There is a truth older than DR..
Pilgrims deductions-a truth as old as
the hills. 1t is that whoever achieves a
gain must pay the cost. If geniuses have
done extraordinary things it has been
with an expenditure of nerve and brain
force and with an amount of suffering in
proportion to the greatness of the work.
The law is invariable. The faithful
worker who can bear this in mind will
learn in time that obstacle and suffering
are not always evils.
Another point Dr. Pilgrim overlooks
Many gifted persons have committed sui
eide, as is proved by the long list of I'M
happy ones he lays before us. But, after
all. and this point is not to be lost sight
of, the majority of people who commit
suicide are not geniuses. The suicidal
tendency is found in persons of unequal
ly developed brains 1t happens that
occasionally unusual gifts in some one
direction go with this i'll balanced tenn
permanent Then, too, when all is said
and done, the geniuses who commit
suicide are the exception among geniuses,
nf fho Ia hnx 41,,-~ Il I,
stupidity would be a more desirable in
heritance than brains; the greater stupid
ity the better.
We are reminded by DR.. Pilgrims pa
per that Lincoln at times was tempted to
take his life. and that he once wrote: 81
am the most miserable man living. l
must die or be better, as it appears to
me-" To the end of his life the mart 7
president was subject to fits of such mel
ancholy as few men have borne and lived.
We learn that Goethe, whose life was
seemingly so happy and prosperous, at
one time slept for several nights with a
dagger under his pillow trying to muster
courage to stab himself. George Sand
too, great Drained and great hearted, con-
fessed that she frequently desired 1.-THE
eternal repose." The illustrious Cavour,
the Regeneration of Italy, twice tried to
kill himself. The divine painter, Michael
Angelo, became so melancholy at one
time that he shut himself up, determined
to "let himself die" and would have
done 50 only that his physician prevented
it. All people of genius apparently have
been subject to frightful fits of the blues.
But when ordinary people have blue fits
it means nothing more than biliousness.

CONTRACTS FOR SURVEYS.
The Bonner's Ferry Region to be
Surveyed in the Spring.

Last summer the HERALD urged
the residents Of the Kootenai Valley
to petition for the survey OF their
lands with all their might. Sew
eral Bonner's Ferryites took an
active interest in the matter, among
whom where Thos. J. Jones and
VIM. Ainsley. The result was that
petitions were sent in for the sur
vey of all the townships from Bon
ner's Ferry to the boundry Line,
in the Kootenai Valley.
That these efforts for public sur
views have met with good results
will be seen from the following eX-
tract from a letter from Surveyor
General Petit to Bartlett Sinclair
Of this city
"a contract has been arranged fol
the survey Of the Bonner's Ferry
region and only awaits the actor
Of the Hon. Secretary Of the Inter
ior on application for special rate
for mvking the surveys. | have NJ
doubt but this rate will be allowed
very soon, when the contract can b
let, 50 the surveys will be com
menced as early as practible in tn

Another landslide occurred on the
Great Northern railroad between Ev-
erett and Edmunds yesterday morning
In consequence no trains from the
south arrived until $50 last evening,
the passengers having been transferred
at the scene of the slide. A report was
current yesterday that several men had
been killed and injured, the body of
mud moving from the bluff having
struck a handcar, burying one man
alive, killing another and throwing
two others and the handcar into the
Sound. The report proved to be false,
however, only one man being missing,
and it was not known whether he had
reported for work yesterday morning
or not.
This landslide Is said to be the most
serious that has yet occurred on the
