AN UNFAIR DIVISION.

At a recent meeting of the city coun-
Gil a special committee on legislation
was appointed to consider what changes
in the municipal laws now on the statute
books would be beneficial and take steps
to bring such matters before the next
legislature. One subject which will oc-
cupy their attention is the present dis
tribution of the revenue arising from sd
loon licenses. In this city the county
receives a evenu OF 5000 from each sa-
loon a year, while the city gets just one
tenth of that amount, or $50 per annum.
The burden of supporting the police de
partment and looking after the drunk
ards and buns who hang around certain
classes of saloons devolves altogether on
the city, and yet the county gobbles up
the lions share of the revenue. This is
certainly unfair, and in view of the fact
that the city is in urgent need of an in
creased revenue it is to be hoped that
the committee will succeed in impress
ing the legislature with the justice of
their views and the eXpediency of "A
fairer dizzy of the saloon license money

such leaders as senators Sherman and
Hoar are great sticklers for precedent,

passage OF popgun bills, as well as of the
free coinage bill; and it is difficult to see

New Copper Discoveries.

The copper properties OF Little Creek,
in the Prick]y Pear canyon, are by de-
velopment proving valuable PROPOSE
tons.
Among them may be named the prop
critics Of the Copper Queen Mining COM
pany, consisting of four locations, and
owned by John Peterson and others. A
vein of copper ore has been found in
side the company's limits u feet in
width. with a pay streak six feet wide.
Samples of the ore were brought into
this city yesterday and attracted consid-
cradle attention among mining men.
Average tests of the pay streak show an
assay of II per cent of copper and II
ounc S of silver, the vein itself being a
contact of lime and slate. The property
is now undergoing development, and
shows constant improvement as progress
is made. 1t seems certain that Prick.y
Pear canyon and vicinity will yet be
heard from among the progressive min
ing camps of Montana. as there are nu-
merous other good locations in that
vicinity.

THE Big CANAL
1t Will Engage the Earnest COnsid.
Grafton of Congress in the
Short Session.
A DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY
If Democrats Do Not Act Republic
ans Will Surely Take the
Question UD.

WASHINGTON, Dec. There is a
strong under current of belief among
members of congress that the Nicaragua
canal will receive very EARNEST considera-
ton during the session of congress which
begins Monday. There is feeling espe-
cially pronounced in the house, and par
ticularly among southern members.
Even those who, like Bailey of Texas,
oppose the bill on constitutional and
economical grounds, concede the ques-
ton will receive early attention, and
most of them are of the opinion that the
prospects of it's success are very good.
Mr.. Cooper of Florida says that nothing
could 80 restore the popularity of the
democratic party as authorizing the
construction of the canal. 1.-THE demo
cratic party is the party which added
the Mississippi valley and the Pacific
coast to the national map, and it is the
party which should provide for the great
enterprise. If it will do this during the
short session, and provide for a more
elastic currency and the appointment of
federal officers, l infer it will not long be
out of power"
Representative Livingston OF Georgia
says: If the democrats do not act on
the bill the republicans will surely take
it up when they come in and take all the
credit. 1t is evident foreigners want
to control the canal" He says it was
the tacit understanding during the last
session that the house bill should come
before the short session.

came near proving fatal. He was riding
on horseback, and when at the bend of
the road, just below the Times Office, he

hill at a pretty good pace. He attempted
to pass on the inside, close Il the bank
which, at this point, is about six feet
high, when the freighter's horses sud
denly pulled in towards the bank, and
Mr., Powell, realizing his position, loos
eued his feet from the. stirrups and en-
deavored to jump on the freighter's

SATOLLI ON CATHOLIC SCHOOLS
And How They Are Conducted in the City
of Rome.

And How They Are Conducted in the City
of Rome.
New YORK, Dec. 1.-Moneignore Sat
olli contributes au article to the North
American Review for December, in
which he reviews the foundation of
Catholic schools in Rome, by private
funds, independent Of the Italian school
system, after the government had sue
Ceeded in eliminating Catholic int1u-
ences from the educational system. He
says:
I'm number the Catholic schools ex-
coed the government and municipal
schools combined. In regard to the
qualifications Of teachers, the text
books and the programs and the meth
DDS of teaching the Catholic schools
endeavor to adjust themselves as far as
possible to the requirements of the
state. The religious corporations stop
at no expense or sacrifice to provide for
their own schools a select body of
teachers, who being furnished with the
proper diplomas, would gain by their
ability, zeal and conduct the confidence
Of the public. And tho pcntitical COM
mission provided for the purposes of the
other schools thorough normal. colleges,
where Catholic men and women were
prepared for their careers as teachers.
SIN endeavoring to conform the
Catholic program" says Mgr. Satolli,
with that of the government the fact
was not lost sight Of that, although the
state may, theoretically and in the ab-
stract, be described as the representative
of the people, it is practically and in
concrete dominated by a party and favors
the system of education which is advo-
Gated by the party in power rather than
that which is best adapted to the needs
Of the people. Even in connection with
the method of teaching-in which the
Catholic schools differ greatly from the
public scholastic pontitlcal commits
sion was at pains to conform to the re-
quirements of the state"
Mgr. Satolli emphasizes the claim
that the Catholic schools in Rome are
mo patriotic, more Italian in spirit
and methods than are the secular
schools, since it has been their special
aim to deviate as little as possible from
the national traditions which 80 harmo-
niously combine faith and science, and
to furnish the boys and girls of the new
generation with that grade Of culture
which is best adapted to their social pc
sition.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.-Two persons
lost their lives in a fire this morning at
the fashionable boarding house of Mrs.
G. B. Reeves, 31S South Broad street. The
are: Mrs. Ella Ray Smith and Miss Gull
lenden, both boarders. A colored waiter
who discovered the flames bursting from
the shaft of the dumb waiter attempted
to extinguish the blaze with a water
bucket, losing valuable time. All the
boarders on the third floor were gotten
out safely, and the tiremen rushed to
the fourth floor, where they found the
doors of Mrs. Smith and Miss Cullenden
locked. They were burst open, and ly-
ing on the floor of the front room was
the body of Mrs. Smith partly wrapped
in a carpet, which she had torn from the
floor in her agony. She was suffocated.
She had made an effort to raise a win
dow, but was too weak. Miss Cullenden
was lying across the bed in her room
and was dead when reached. There
were many narrow escapes.

1t Shows, an Increase of Twenty-three
Per Cent. Over Last Year.
A. f. Cautield, clerk of school district
No. l, has finished his census of this dis
trict, and finds the total number of per-
sons under age in the school district to
be 2,7G9 against 2,25l a year ago, making
a net gain Of 5lS, or Just % per cent. in
crease in a year. Those Of school age
that is between the ages of 6 years and
y years-amount to 1902, while those
under 6 years and not yet of school age
amount to 1867, a figure that shows that
the school board can look forward to an
average addition of more than 200 new
scholars every year, without taking into
account any increase from the future
growth of the city. The total of those
under school age is divided by sex as fol
lows: Boys G3o, girls G2S, Those over 6
years and under 81 are divided by sex as
follows: Males 49,. females 40. The
total number of minors are divided by
sex as follows: Males l,}7l, females ,:39S.
The new school census demonstrates
clearly the fact that this city has made
very rapid advance in population in the
last year. and tells the same story in this
respect that the registration and vote at
the last election told.

Drawing to u ClOse-Expert Testimony on
the Insane Issue.
FARGO, Dec. 1.-Judge Mcconnell this
morning struck from the records all evil
dence of Joseph Bee, relating to CONVEX
sations with Jake lIolzeberg, as not
showing that the Hershtields author
lied the bearing of periured testimony.
The defense took exception on the
grounds that the plaintiffs W wit
nesses testified to having been engaged
by Holzeberg, and thus the agency was
established. Bee is a Helena gambler,
and came here as a witness for the
plaintiff, but testified for the defense.
Judge Mcconnell also decided not to
admit in evidence the kilograms to or
from Hershtield at Helena and Fargo, as
it was desired to close the case today,
and to secure these kilograms would re-
quire several days. l.. II. Hershtield,
brother of the plaintiff, this morning
was put on the stand, and denied the
testimony of Mrs. Hershtield as to the
conversation with him in the bank on
the day Aaron left her. He said Aaron
had left in the morning and not in the
afternoon, as the defendant testified,
DR.. E. M. barrow, president of the board
of insanity commissioners, gave expert
testimony for the defense On neurastne-

with neurasthenia as to be in a state
Hershfield's testimony would show him
to be, would suffer a corresponding
weakness in memory and be unable to
remember details SO as to tell them
