MORAL" INFLUENCE WAS TOO MUCH
autte City Council Grants a License for

Hutte City Council Grants a License for
GrouDd.Floor Gambling.
The gamblers Of Butte made a great
center rush for the city council last night
and they captured 1t, boots, breeches and
all, says the Anaconda Standard. The
rejoicing of the gamblers after the meet
ing was over surpassed that of the Reli-
ance football team, and this morning the
banner Of the gamblers floats in TRIUMPH
over the city hall. The grand reform ad-
ministration succumbed before the great
moral rush of the gamblers of Butte.
1t must be admitted that it was not an
easy victory. 1t took three weeks to do
it. Three weeks ago the city council
decided it was contrary to the best inter-
ests of the city to allow gambling on the
ground floor, and passed resolution that
no gambling license should be granted
except for upstairs. To this resolution
there was only one dissenting vote, that of
Alderman Schatzlein. Two weeks ago
this action was confirmed, there being
two dissenting votes, Aldermen Schatz-
lein and Heilig. Last night, contrary to
all former action, the council granted a
downstairs license, although Alderman
Schatzlein, Disguised with his fellow
aldermen, spoke and voted against this
outrageous inconsistency. The moral in
fiuencs of the gamblers proved too strong.

Toe Jeffersou's Retort.

asked to spend a week with Scotch peer
Among the guests was a brilliant and
hearty lady who was the daughter of an
earl.

must have been something in my Ameri-
can manner that amused her. for she made
a dead set at quizzing me. did not de-
tect it at first and answered some of
her absurd questions about America quite
innocently.
she kept her face so well that might
never have discovered this but for the
idiotic grin upon the smooth face Of one
of her admirers; and then I felt that,
for the honor of my country. if she made
another thrust at me would parry it If
l could. 1 had not long to wait, for en-
boldened by her late success, she turned
upon me and said:

then turned away and never spoke to me
again; but I was revenged. "-Pittsburg

Bicycling for Women.

Bicycling as a means of restful exercise
now scarcely needs to be pointed out. AS
a woman said lately: 1.-The beauty of the
wheels cure of insomnia, incipient ner-
vous prostration and the rest of the ills
of the overworked is that it cures in spite
of unfaith, want of skill or any handicap.
You get ON your wheel and there is no
getting away from it; it must absorb your
intention; you can not worry about the
children, the house. the office, finances
any Of your cares-you have got to think
about your poise on the wheel and watch
your surroundings, and in so doing you
get out Of yourself in spite of yourself
Every physician will tell you that this is
all that is needed."-New York Times.

The hunting Of the walrus proved by
far the more popular occupation, as the
COWS We're exceedingly abundant in this
locality, says the New York Herald.
The general method of hunting the wal
rus Is easily described. The animals

sleep. They frequently gather on pen
In large numbers-20 80, 40 of them to-
gether. They sometimes lie so close to-
| gether and In such large numbers on a
| small pan that the surface of the ice is
| almost concealed by them. Small pans
| OF Ice are generally selected, and the
| animals generally keep near the edge,
SO that 1t Is with the greatest ease they
slip on into the water on the slightest
provocation. The hunters proceed to-
ward them In rowboat, stealing upon
them cautiously, using the oars SO as to
make as little noise as possible. In this
way 1t is possible to come within a few
yards OF them before they are aroused.
Harpoons are then thrown into them.
rms arouses those that are struck, and
thls aWakes the rest, and the whole
group tumbles into the water pell-mell.
The harpooned animals are held by the
maroon.
and as they come to the surface to
breathe they are shot, many bullets
often being necessary to kill Instead
OF being harpooned the walrus were
sometimes fired upon as they lay upon
the ice. This method works well when
the first shot Is fatal, but unless the
bullet kills almost instantly the wal
rus is almost sure to get into the water

less the animal be seriously, but not
too seriously, wounded. If the animal
slips Off the Ice in its death struggle,
1t Is sure to sink. If wounded but
slightly it swims away, while If wound
ed so seriously as to be unable to rise
to the surface periodically to breathe
1t may still be harpooned and killed.
Attacking the animals on one pan of
Ice Is likely to disturb and arouse those
on all adjacent pans, so that great
herds OF them are frequently seen in
the water after little shooting, diving
and swimming about, often coming I'M
comfortably near the sportsman's boat.
The appearance Is often such as to sug-
gest that they are about to attack the
boat In great numbers, but this Is prob !
ably hardly the fact. They seem to be |
animated by curiosity rather than any
desire for revenge. The only case |
where they seemed to be disposed to in |
terfere was where a calf had been har- |
pooned and the mother attempted to |
rescue it. Even then the efforts of the |
cow seemed to be directed entirely to-
ward freeing the calf and not at all
against the hunters. The first waIrus
hunt was just north of Herbert island.
The number Of cows shot was very
the number being limited
only by the demand.

THE ORIGIN OF MUSICAL NOTES
They Were Adopted by a M,nN From
Religious Song.

they We're Adopted by a Monk From
Religious Song.
The invention of the musical notes of
today originated with a Benedictine
monk, named Guido, of Arezzo, who
lived during the 18th century. He is
also responsible for the original naming
OF the seven musical notes still in gen.
eral use in the Latin countries and
parts of England, where they are called
ut, re, mi, ia, sol, la, ST." instead of
our C, d, e, t, g, a, b. This demnomina-
ton of the notes was taken by the in
ventive monk from the beginning of the
lines of a Latin religious song in which
the choir singers prayed to St. John to
remove all hoarseness or huslkiness of
the voice:
Ut queant laxis,
Resonare fibris,
Mira gestorum,
Famuli tuorum,
Solve polluti
Labii reatum;
Sante
Iannis.
Mention Of this song is made in a
manuscript now in the Vatican library,
which was written between the years
1910 and 1915.
