MANARD'S EXPERIMENTS.
He Proves to Be n Great Rival Of
Herr DoYY

Herr Dow.
Chicago, Sept. 29.-Captain Manard. the
English marksman, last night gave d
private exhibition ito newspaper men Of
his new bullet proof dress, considerable
notice Of which has appeared IN the Eng
lish press. Captain Msnard used a SO
Henry rifle in his experiments. The first
test was at a piece Of steel about one
eighth of an inch in thickness, which was
placed in wise and the cartridge which
the captain intended 10 use was handed
to the members of the press for safe
keeping. The first of these was fired at
the steel plate and the result was a jag
ged hole.
Shall fire at the plate or the lady
this time?" asked Captain Manard and
there was a chorus Of "at the plate.'
Again the bullet plowed it's way
through the steel. Those present refused
a second time to ask the young lady, who
was Mr.. Manard's sister, to pose as a
mark. but the captain told her to step
forward, and she did so without heslta-
ton. Miss Julia Manard had a pack of
white cards in front of her body and
Captain Manard fired. Miss Manard
moved just a trife as d result of the
shock, but the smile never left her face.
Other tests were made with the regula-
ton Springfield in use in the American
army and with the same result. 1t failed
to pierce Captain Manard's protection, al
though the bullet fired just before this
had gone through sixteen one-inch pine
boards. Captain Manard proposes to give
an exhibition before army officers on the
occasion of the opening of the armory.
Oct. 8. He will also ask General Miles
to make tests of the resisting power OF
the material.

i Chicago, Sept. 29.-Chicago's China
town was astir today over the news of
the rebellion of the troops in China
Sam Moy, the local mandarin, says:
II"It means the beginning of the end.
We Cinnamon wish to see China win,
but more than that, we wish our own
lemperor back in place of the usurper
who now reigns over u.s.
For years the Gee Kings have been
growing in power. and today they have
generals and officers in command of the
army. The sole object of the Gee Hing
society is to overthrow the present en-
peror and restore the old dynasty 1t is
"a secret society with millions of mem
bers in China and about 500 in Chicago.
The emperor has offered $1,000 reward
for the head of every Gee Hing, but
there is not enough money in the treas
Jury to pay for the heads. The war with
Japan will not last much longer, for
the Gee Kings will soon be strong
enough to come out openly and de-
throne the emperor"
Mandarin Moy thinks this winter will
see a new emperor and an elaborate
coronation in China, which many Chi
namen now in America will attend if
they can beg or borrow the money to
cross the Pacific.

The Capital Fight in Montana is
Daily Growing, Warmer-Marcus
Days Big Pull For Anaconda
What the Removal Would Mean
to Helena.

Butte, Mont, Sept. 29.-ISpeciall-
One of the liveliest political contests
lin the history of the northwest is on
lin Montana At the election in No
vember the people of the state will
vote on the question of a permanent
capital
The constitution provided for an
election two years ago, at which all
cities could enter, and providing fur
Their that if no town received a ma
jority of the votes the two receiving
the highest number should contest for
the place this year. No town received
a majority, and the fight is now on be-
tween Helena, the present temporary
capital, and Anaconda, young and
enterprising city, twenty-eight miles
west of Butte. Helena is one of the
Oldest towns in the state and well
built, but, unfortunately, is situated in
a narrow gulch, which excludes the
possibility of it ever becoming a large
city; and as it has comparatively no
resources, its efforts to retain the
state capital is almost a matter of life
and death with it; and because of that
fact the city has great strength
throughout the state and influential
support through sympathy.
Anaconda is an off-shoot of Butte,
and as far as the people and business
interests are concerned, is part of it.
The city is located in the famous Deer
Lodge valley. one of the largest and
most fertile in the state. At Anacon-
da are located the great shelters of
the big Anaconda Mining company,
and its general manager, Marcus DAILY,
founded the town.
One of the arguments used against
Anaconda is that it is a corporation
town. The place has a, large popula-
ton of laboring men, many of whom
own their homes and work in the
various manufacturing establishments
of the place. Marcus Daily, who spent
many years of his life as a common
miner, is a great friend Of the work.

which the laboring men of the state

efforts to locate the state capital at

Helena, is leading the fight for that
city, and is making a vigorous con-
test. Butte is the principal fighting
ground, as it has a voting population
of nearly 10000, of which very large
per cent are laboring men. The fight
is daily growing hotter.
Money on both sides is being spent
like water. Personal animosities are
being aroused to the highest pitch.
The capital question is being used to
pay off old political grudges. and alto
gether the liveliest kind of a time will
be seen in this state during the next
six weeks. Both sides are confident
of winning, and it looks at present as
if the state was about equally divided

Bannock county Republicans have split

a taxpayers ticket.
They paid S4S for a special train from

Deputy Sheriff George Ross was
elected bodily from the caucus, and
serious trouble was narrowly averted.
The ticket as put up endorses Martin,
for sheriff, on the Populist ticket, and
four nominations on the Democratic
ticket as follows: Scott, for clerk; Rose,
assessor and collector; Power, surveyor;
Murphy, for commissioner who is now
on three tickets. This hopelessly de-
