AN ERRONEOUS CONCLUSION.

The hypercritical Billings Gazette,
notes with evident disapproval. the fact
that the town boys of Miles City and
the Reform School boys have INDUCED
in a game Of baseball recently, and in
solemn disapproval is moved to say in
regard thereto that there appears to be
a premium ON vice in this state. and vir
tue is so common as to be disregarded.
Without entering into the enquiry
whether the Gazette means that virtue
is common in the sense that it is debas
ed. or that 1t is common in the sense that
it is prevalent and widespread. We are
moved to make few remarks regarding
the error that our neighbor has fallen
into regarding the uses and purposes of
the Reform School. The Reform School
is not a penitentiary-th institution.
the Gazette will remember. was located
at Billings, and will no doubt. in the
fullness OF time, arise from the alkali
plains surrounding Fosterville. monu-
ment to the questionable methods OF the
notorious combine of the last legisla-
ture. The Reform School. as its name
indicates, is a reformatory institution,
and the whole policy Of its government
is based upon that idea. We admit. in
extenuation Of the Gazette's error, that
there are many who have different
opinion regarding it. A recently EN-
ployed assistant came here with the idea
that his duty was confined to strapping
a gun on him. and mounting guard over
the inmates. When informed that this
was not his duty but distinctly repre-
hended, he promptly resigned. This in
cident will go to show that the Gazette's
idea is not wholly unique, but it is, ney-
ertheless wrong. There are no guards
on the premises no restrainment beyond
what a barb-wire fence imposes, and
nothing but discipline and a rigidly in
culcated sense of honor among the in
mates to keep them from making their
escape. To what extent this system
will prove effective remains Of course to
be proven. but the trustees and the di
rector have faith in it. and in the pursu-
ance of it. il will no doubt be admitted
by intelligent people that game of base
ball betw cen the inmates of the reform
atory and the town boys is not calculated
to lower the moral grade Of the Reform
School boys or inspire them with de
sire to do evil things.
A majority. if not all, of the inmates Of
the school are there through criminal
lapses occasioned by neglectful rearing
and improper surroundings. and it is
these faults of education that the com
mitment to the reform school is to rec
tfy. 1t is distinctly understood that
they are not criminals. and it is thor
oughly believed that liberties allowed
them. including the privilege of playing
ball. will not put premium upon vice

THEN DEIFIep THE BEETLE.
How the Egyptians Came to Regard tn
Despised Insects as Gods.

now the Egyptians Sane TO Regard u
Despised Insects as Gods.
Primitive observers never suspect
ed anything so commonplace as the
presence of eggs in the middle of the
ball the beetle has made. That sort
of explanation belongs only to thH
age of science. The Egyptians saw
the beetle bury the pellet, and they
saw a new beetle emerge from il in
due time, and they leaped straight
to the not unnatural conclusion that
here was a case of spontaneous gev
Grafton. The pious scarab, they ima9
ined. buried the balls of dirt as they
themselves buried their mummled
dead, and new scarabs sprang from
it under the vivifyine rays of the su-
preme sun god. as the glorified body
would spring in the end from the
dried and withered dust of the hu-
man mummy.
1t was as an emblem of the resur-
rection then that the scarab attained
ley. Nothing could be more natural
than that a mummy making race
should see III its proceedings an un-
doubted argument for the immortal
ity Of the soul and proof of the con
tinued existence of the spirit after
death. Everything conspired to pro
duce this impression. The earnest
way in which the good beetles devot-
ed their lives to the piOus task of
rolling their balls of manure to the
chosen burying place was a lesson,
as II were, 10 careless humanity to
look to the end-a perpetual coleop.
ferrous memento mori.
All sorts of strange fables rose up
accordingly about the sacred insect.
1t seems that for Is days the balls re-
mained under ground, through a
whole lunar revolution. During that
mystic time the beetles grew within
by spontaneous generation. On the
twenty-ninth day, which the insect
knew as the moment of the conjunc-
ton of the sun with the moon, the
ball opened of itself and forth sailed
in full divinity new born scarab.
Later on, when the cult of Ra. the sun
god, became the chief element in the
worship of Egypt, eclipsing and alb
sorbing into itself the earller anctj-
trail worship of Osiris, yet another
point of sanctity was discovered in
the scarab.
The balls he rolled behind him so
assiduously, being round and revivi-
fed, were considered as emblematical
of the suns disk, and the beetle him
self was almost regarded as an avatar
Of the solar deity. To such pitch of
dignity may honest industry and
sterling earnestness of purpose lead
in the end even a despised carrion
beetle. Magazine.
