Once more the alarmist has appeared
and Is predicting wars and setting aAoat
rumors Of war. He cables from Paris
that something is taking place in Eu-
rope, but it is impossible to say what it
is, because as yet only the outward
signs are visible. What is visible, in
the first place, is the speech, marked
with displeasure and bad temper, deliv-
cred by the czar OF the occasion of the
inauguration of the port of Libau. in
which Alexander Ii. declared that the
Baltic ought to be, in spite of all oppo-
%sition, a Russian lake. The second sign
OF the times is the holding of the Ger
man army maneuvers Oh the French
frontiers and the entrance OF Emperor
William into Metz on the anniversary
of the oapitulation Of Sedan, accompa-
MED by tho crown prince of italy.
Thirdly, we have the significant fact
that the Italian military maneuvers are
also to be held on the italian side OF the
French frontier, and that the hatred of
Italians against the French is constantly
on h increase.
In addition to these primary signs the
same alarmist adduces others of SER
ondary importance, from which the
reader would be led to expect in the
next mornings paper to read startling
headlines telling that the dogs of war
had been let slip and the charge on
paris Ind been eoundad
But the fever of war having died out
in his blood before he had written Il
half column the gentleman at the other
end of the cable gives his personal as
surance that the dogs of war are gnaw-
ing the bone of contentment in their

THE citizens Of st. Paul and Mime
apolis are solving the question Of unem-
rloyed labor in those cities by finding
places elsewhere for numbers of men.
Thus through u committee several hun
bred Iaborero have leon sent to the
harvest fields of North Dakota. No
doubt in every state IL labor were prop
erly distributed work could be- found
for many moro mon. Where they are
wanted rs q rulo. they arc not to be
had. They settle down in the com
munities whore they were formerly en-
ployed and soon are unable to go else
where il they would. Perhaps our citi-
zens' committee in Helena could act as
O. sort Of clearing house to bring the
men who have work to give and the
men who are seeking work together.

VIcERoY LII HUNG CHANG, a notorious
mater OF foreigners, is said to have nd
dressed n petition to the Chinese en-
peror advocating the determination of
ali foreigners in China. lIe especially
advises the removal OF Englishmen and
contends that this is necessary in order
70 prevent the ultimate partition OF
China among European nations. MI.
Chang seems to be n reactionist Of the
goldbug type. China having prospered
marselously under tho beneficent in
tiuence Of tho presence OF foreigners. ho
would now rebuild the Chinese wall
around tho empire and throw foreigners
outside OF it. This country having
~prospered as no other nation ever did,
having a double standard during its en-.
tire history, except for a period Of a fow
years, the goldbugs would extcrminate
one of the two equal metals at the
foundation OF our monetary system.

We have received from Librarian Pat
ten, of the Helena Public Library, {
neatly printed folder entitled "Bulletir
l." which contains O list OF some sever
hundred volumes OF books recently
added to the library. A glance at the
pages OF the bulletin shows that the
readers OF books in this community are
calling for the best work and thought
Of the best writer's Of the times, as we'll
as for those standard works which, while
old, are yet always new to each genera
ton of readers. There is a goodly pro-
portion Of novels Of the period in tho
list, but IN the whole the character OF
the publications is creditable to the
tastes OF the community. Here we have
Aristophanes and Addison, Chesterfield
and Phillips Brooks, Jules Verne and
Frank Stockton's latest, Rudyard Kip
ling and Cardinal Newman, with Cap
tain Marryat, J~osephus and Marion
Crawford eandwiched between-a wide
range indeed. The arrangement Of the
books in the little folder is very conve-
llCAU " bllc ISuQSI. IL lS Il uHuuy Cat
alogue for ready use.
We learn that the complete ceta-
loguing of the library is now under way
and that IN a few months more every
one of the twelve Thousand volumes in
the library will be SO indexed by the
card system that it will be instantly ac-
cessible to the reader. Under the old
system Of %cataloguing it has been i'm
possible to make available anything like
the whole number Of books in the col
lection. With the completion of this
work the public for the first time will
be enabled to know the full esource Of
it's library.
This reminds us, by the way, that the
Helena Public Library has recently
been designated by the secretary of the
interior as M of the repositories of
government publications. Not all of
the books issued by Uncle Sam are val
liable or interesting, but many of the
works issued from the government
printing office are of rare worth, espe-
cially those treating Of scientific sub
jeots and explorations.
AS a whole the Helena Public Library
is an institution of which our citizens
may we'll be proud, and which they
should foster and advance in ever DOS
sible way. We notice that Librarian
Patten urgently invites gifts to the
library OF books and pamphlets, and Of
magazines bound and unbound. There
is another mood Of the library to which
The INDEPENDENT has heretofore called
attention. The library walls should he
hung with pictures, especially the por-
traits Of authors, and the tops of the
cases are admirably adapted to busts
and statuary. The trustees do not feel
warranted in making any expenditures
except for the purchase of books and
the employment of the necessary at
t%endants, but contributions Of the sort
indicated would be highly appreciated
and would show that the people of Hell
ena recognize their library to be what it
is-a most valuable and important fac
tor IN the advancement of our city.

Extraordinary Capture of a Hawk.

On one of the cold mornings during
the cold spell a large hawk pounced upon
one of Benjamin Haller's tame ducks
that at the time were in pool of fresh,
unfrozen water in the canal bed short
distance beyond the third lock at Mace
donia. The hawk fastened its claws
around the neck of the fowl close to its
body, but the duck was in deep water,
and true to its nature it ducked and drew
the hawk with it under the water.
Again the duck dove, which was too
much for his hawkship. The hawk re-
leased its hold ON the duck and with diff
Guilty Topped its way to the shore. The
weather was cold and froze the feathers
of the hawk together so that it could not
fly. William Halter was a witness of
the capture and escape game between
the hawk and duck, and when it was all
over he took a hand at the game by cap
turing the hawk. The bird measured
3 feet 6 inches from the tip of one wing
to the tip of the other wing.-Juniata
Valley Sentinel.

Lassa, the principal city of Thibet, is
remarkable place for one thing-gov-
eminent recognizes the ability of women
to manage and control large proper
ton OF the retail trade, that at certain
seasons of the year demands unusual at
tention. From December to March a
brisk business is carried on with "neigh-
bors from abroad" Hue, the distin-
gulshed explorer, relates that china
ware, rich carpets, attractive silk stuffs
and other commodities in great variety
and large quantities are brought from
western China; and from other quarters
appear travelling merchants, with well
laden camels and horses, revealing
tempting display of Russian goods,
among which may be found gold lace,
sllken textures and peculiar styles OF
Jewelry, much in request in the cities
and villages of Thibet; also many kinds
OF furniture are included in the list, and
eastern Thibet fails not in ample pro-
vision OF much priced musk.
The owners of these valuable "packs
OF richness and elegance" throw them
selves heart and soul into the work of
dlsposing of their various properties, for
IN three months "the season of absence
from home with them is past, and early
In March they must again take up the
claims of farm and store and shop IN
their own land. "-Harpers Bazaar.
