Keen to Locate.

A number of persons have been accused
of informing on the Malinta A. P. A., and
as usual the accusers have shot wide of the
mark. Inasmuch as our informant ask
that his name be withheld and as there is
nothing of libelous nature in the article in
question, we shall, in accordance with news
paper courtesy comply with his request. We
merely published the names of those be-
longing to society, and If the obie,t of the
society in question be honorable, there is no
reason why its members need be ashamed at
having their membership placed before the
public. The time has gone by when societies
like the Ku Klu1 clan and its ilk are toeta-
ted, much less one that aims blow at both
Federal and State constitutions.

Important Hens.

The intelligence comes from Butte City,
Mont, that hens have developed into more
important bipeds than mere every day egg
laying creatures. 1t seems that j. o. Nc
Conville. who lives near there, killed one of
his chickens for dinner recently, and on
cleaning it found quantity of gold nuggets
in its crop and gizzard. He had about thin
ty more chickens, and Immediately killed
and examined them. In each he found mug
gets, the total amount gathered from thirty-
one being $3S7.55, an average of Sl2. 80 a
head. The gold was sold to the State Ma
tonai bank here and pronounced 10 .caret
fine.
Mr.. McConville then bought so more
chickens and turned them out in his lot. A
few days later he killed one of these and
$3.50 in gold Was taken from its inside
works, the result of four days run. Nc
Conville expects to be millionaire if the
chickens hold out.

How TO Make Money.

There is not so much in what one makes
as there is in what he saves. One of the
many ways in which one can save much is
to buy that which he needs, at the best and
lowest prlce. II you should need wall paper,
window shades or paints of any kind, 20 and
investigate where you can buy the best arti-
Gle for the least money. One of the places
which you should be careful not to miss, is
Saur q Balsley's paint and wall paper depot
Ihey always carry large stock of every
thing in their line, they buy low and sell low j..
Our experience has been that whenever
good bargain is wanted that Saur Bal
sley's drug store is the place to 90 and get it.
They are at present very anxious to reduce
their stock of paints, oils and wall paper as
low as possible before the cold weather sets
in and in order to do so, they have reduced
the selling prices of some of the articles ey-
en- below cost, and all at about cost price.

A Handy Barometer.

A barometer which will be reliable may be
made by filling common wide mouthed
pickle bottle to within three inches of the
top with water. An ordinary olive oil bottle
is then inverted and placed within the
mouth of the pickle bottle as far as it will
go. In fine weather the water will rise into
the neck of the flask higher than the mouth
of theSpickle bottle, in wet or windy wealth
er it will rise within an inch of the mouth of
the flask. Before heavy gale of wind, and
at least eight hours before the gale reaches
its height, the water has, it is said. been seen
to leave the flask altogether.
