seen, these broad valleys, magnif-
cen parks, and stately ridges hardly
know the touch of the farmers hand.
But agriculture is growing, every
year some horny handed son of toll
takes a quarter section of govern
ment land breaks up the pinto gran
lite surface, runs water through it
plants his garden truck and-nature
does the rest. He gamers his crop
in early winter and will deposit as
net profit $1,000 for a years work on
a quarter section of Montana land.
In 1861 but two hogs could be
found in the state, one of which was
a pig. In 1867 a large number
roamed the state seeking that which
they could devour, these animals
were of the razor back variety, i'm
ported from Missouri and the south
generally, and were not at that time
considered a profitable investment.
In '7S the Rocky Mountain Hus-
bandman introduced hogs, pigs and
sows of all descriptions to their ex-
detrimental farm in the Smith River
Valley. After experimenting for a
period of eight years they proved to
the public that with good management
and economy hog raising was a snap
and the editors of that paper showed
where a profit of 50 cents could be
made on each boar, and three
times that amount could be cleared
on d sow. The average life of these
animals is fifteen years. So it is
apparent that hog raising pays better
than a gold mine.
From 1883 the farmers started in
earnest to produce these animals.
After discarding the razor-back,
white-ribbed, black-legged and long
cared varieties and turning their
attention toward the smoked ham
breed the growth of this industry
was wonderful, and today over 100,
900 hogs grow, thrive and prosper
in this state. Meagher county alone
having as much as a hog to every
inhabitant in it.

Smothered to Death.

The worst accident that ever oc-
Cured in Leadville happened about
one o'clock Sept. 26 at the Belgian
mine, resulting in the death of six
miners and the injuring of four
others.
The men were working in IA drift
and stope about 10 feet above the
lower levels, where 30 pounds of
powder had been stored. Accord
ing to the superintendent he had
positively forbidden more than five
pounds of powder to be taken into
the mine at one time, but it is known
90 pounds were there at the time.
Five or ten pounds of this was in the
oil can warming, with lighted snunles
under it. 1t exploded, and the con
cussion set off the othex powder.
This terrific shock caused the dirt to
block the stope, and the men could
not get out, and six Of them slowly
smothered to death. AS many vol
unteers as could be put to work be-
gan digging through the mass of
dirt, and in an hour had broken
through and discovered the miners
lying along the two dufts. The five
in the Belgian drift were dead and
four in the other three were alive.
The dead and injured were rapidly
removed to the surface and the in
jured taken to the hospital. 1t is
thought all of the injured men will
recover. The men killed as far as
known were single.

A French Romance.


M. Joseph Bertrand, the we'll
known French academician and per-
manent secretary of the Academy of
Sciences, lately celebrated his gold
en- wedding. The circumstances un-
der which he became engaged to his
wife form a romance surprising the
most lively efforts of the sensational
novelist.
In 1912, SOC after the opening of
the Versailles railway, Admiral Du-
mont d'Urville, a distinguished Off
Ger, famous for the discovery of the
Venus of Milo, as we'll as for many
nor strictly professional exploits,
a travelling from Paris with his
charming young bride. and his pri
vate secretary. A heated axle set the
carriage on fire, and, according to the
then prevailing custom, the doors
we're locked. The secretary escaped
through the window and did his best
to rescue the other two. Admiral
Dumont d'Urville thrust the fainting
lady out of the narrow aperture into
young Bertrand's arms, crying:
"Save her! Save her, my friend, and
marry her!" An instant later the
blazing woodwork fell in upon the
gallant old sailor, and he vas speed
ily reduced to a cinder. The secre-
tary fulfilled his dying masters in
functions and two years later led
the widow to the altar. Besides Nine.
Bertrand he retains another souvenir
of that tragic day in the shape of a
scar across the nose where the red
hot debris of the carriage left an in
delible mark.-St. James Gazette.

Grover and St. Peter.

The following old story, in a new
form, is going the rounds of the
press:
Grover had a dream the other
evening; he dreamed that he was
dead and his spirit took flight to-
wards the pearly gates. Arriving
at the portals of the heavenly para
disc, he knocked. st. Peter answer
ed the call.
"Who comes?n asked St. Peter.
Grover Cleveland, late president
of the United States, knocks for adj
mission to heaven,' replied Grover.
"Grover Cleveland, president of
the United States?" queried St.
Peter in some surprise; 1--WE have no
knowledge of him here. But wait a
minute; | will look at the books
St. Peter turned to the books
while Grover shook with fear and
trembling at the portals to hear the
result of the examination.
"No," sadly replied St. Peter,
"your name is not on the books.
You can't come in, Grover"
With great disappointment and a
sad heart Grover turned his back to
heaven and began the decent. He
had gone partly down the hill when
he met a pilgrim on his way to
heaven, whose face was radient with
hope and sunshine.
Hello, stranger. bound for

Tie ENCORE FIEND.
Something Of the Good He Does and Like
wise Undoes.

Hkbt duuOtbs
Really there has been too much
said in dispraise of the encore fiend,
and it is high time that a word or
two were spoken in his favor, for he
is by no means the utterly useless
and unlOvable creature that some
harsh critics would have us believe.
The encore fiend indeed has many
very praiseworthy traits, and of his
usefulness there can be no doubt in
the minds of those who will view his
performances dispassionately and
with an eye to discover the benefac-
tons which flow from his unselfish
efforts, for he is distinctly altruistic
in his intentions and in the methods
by which he carries them into effect.
He is by no means the hog that his
frank and artless would
e to declare him. On the con-
trary, he labors for others, and for
all, as well as himself. He is not in
tent only upon getting a full return
for his money, but he is bound that
all shall receive their moneys worth
also. Moreover, he informs others by
his liberal and energetic applause
what is worthy of their appreciation,
and upon the principle that there
cannot be too much of a good thing
he insists that they shall have as
much as possible of what his superior
taste %conceives they should admire.
And the moore fiend thinks not
only of the welfare of the people at
the theater, but of others who are
not there. By lengthening the per-
Torrance until after II o'clock he
prevents the bibulously inclined
from visiting the gilded saloon be.
fore vending their way homeward,
and thus does he a good thing for
the cause of temperance. Again, by
delaying the close of the performance
he brings money to the purse of the
herdic driver who is employed to
hurry suburbanites to the trains they
cannot reach in time by walking, and
he helps the hotels likewise, mas
much as many who cannot reach
their homes, having lost their trains,
are obliged to put up in town.
The encore fiend is, moreover, no
mean factor toward the elevation of
the stage, for his applause not only
rewards good acting O. superior sing
ing, but he causes the performers or
singers who have done badly to res
peat their efforts, and in this way
does he punish offenders.
The encore 1iend, it is true, receives
q personal benefit from his applause
and indeed every good act brings
its compensation to the actor-for
the exercise he INDUCES in is an
excellent prophylactic for the govt
and rheumatism, it assists digestion
and aids in the healthful circulation
of the blood.
But these benefits to himself are
only incidental. His main purpose is
to act for the public good, and most
energetically does he attain his OBJ

Looks Like Tin.

l.. S. Woodbury. Of Great Falls,
has secured several pounds of tin
from Cornwall, Wales, and distribut-
ed it in small specimens among pro.
spectOrs with a view to making
them familiar with its appearance, so
that if tin exists in this section dis
coveries may be made. Already
this good work has born fruit, as he
is in receipt of a letter from a pro
spector at Virginia City named
Christian Nelson, who writes that lie
has traces of ore there which in
structure, atomic building and cryst-
alization bears marked resemblance
to the samples from England. He
has sent it away for analysis, and
has strong hopes of discoveries of
tin in the Rocky mountains.

The presence Of Henry Janin, the
noted mining expert, in Butte has
been overlooked by the reporters
who are engineering the sale of the
Anaconda properties to the Roth
schilds. He has been there several
weeks with Mr.. Hague, the expert,
who is now making am examination
of the, several Butte properties.
Henry and Lewis Janin are the two
oldest and most competent experts
in the country, and We're in the bust
ness in the palmy days of the Com
stock. In recent years Henry Janin
reported on the Trail creek country,
and it was mainly upon his report
that outside capital has been so
largely invested in that section.

Western Mining World: Little

by little the public and the admins
tration supporting press is beginning
to realize that another bond issue is
possible if not probable, also that
the bond syndicate has practically
given up the hopeless task of keep
ing the national treasury supplied
with gold when the policy of the adj
ministration is to pay on gold faster
than it can be brought in. Not I'M
til this foolish policy is changed can
the government hope to maintain a
gold reserve Of any stipulated
amount.
The syndicate, since the expira-
ton Of its contract with the govern
ment on August s, has deposited
Sl3,0OO,OOO Of gold at the sub-trea
sury, taking i'll exchange greenbacks
and other paper money redeemaDle
in gold. a number of New York
banks have deposited gold on the
same terms, but in comparatively
small amounts. 1t is a waste of
time to point out again and again
that these transactions benefit the de.
positor and not the government.
In the depositing of gold to a
greater extent than called for in the
contract, a good many people have
been led to believe that it was from
patriotic motives, but one has to look
"A little deeper to get at the real OBJ
ect Of the syndicate. The syndic-
ate has had a large amount of secur-
tiles to place on the market, and 50
long as they kept the gold reserve
up to the slOO,OOO,OOO mark the
public and Wall street remained in
IA bullish frame Of mind and greedily
gobbled up the stocks and bonds
offered by the syndicate at advancing
prices. The liquidation being com
plcted, the syndicate gave up the
attempt of keeping the gold reserve
intact and the stock market, as has
been seen, Immediately reacted.
The understanding" about which
so much has been said, did not bind
the syndicate lo keep the gold re-
serve up to the notch, but related to
the issue Of more bonds, if any we're
to be issued, October |. The syndi-
cate was to have the right to buy the
new bonds Of the government and to
float the same as the last issue. So
long as the reserve remains intact
there will be no occasion for issuing
more bonds, and if the syndicate
wants more bonds it is unlikely that
it would do anything to prevent
another issue, such as keeping the
reserve intact.
In other words the syndicate has
the government under its control
and can force another issue of bonds
or not, Just as it sees fit. This is a
very undesirable position for any
government 10 be in, and to what
can the present misfortune of this
government be attributed, except
to the attempt to stand on one leg,
as it were,-that is to make gold the
sole basis for our monetary system.
Nature has richly endowed this
country with both gold and silver
mines, but the product Of either one
or the other alone is insufficient to
serve as a monetary basis. 1t is a
case Of "united we stand" Pre-
vious to 1913 both silver and gold
were united, but since their division
the country has lost untold millions
from the consequent shrinkage In
prices under gold monometallism.

she had been lately addressing herself,
and young Mr.. Jones usually fled when

Madras-The Eurasians.

Only 1000 Europeans are to be
found in the immense population of
400, 900 souls, if we exclude the H.
600 Eurasians who occupy the No
Mans Land, Oh the borders of black
and white, This hybrid race presents
insoluble difficulties to the political
economist. Craving for the social
recognition denied to a community
which originated in the vices of the
early European ~colonists, and scorned
alike by the pure blooded nations of
east and west, the sins of the fathers
seem visited upon the yellow chill
dren of this degenerate stock unto
the third and fourth generation.
By a curious freak of nature the
Eurasian of Portuguese descent sinks
step by step in the scale of color un-
til he becomes of darker hue than the
Hindoo of unblemished race, and the
hybrid Goanese of the present day
combine distinctively European fea-
lures with a skin of total blackness.
The unbalanced Eurasian character,
full of conflicting elements, lacks the
sterling and enduring qualities
which command respect and insure
success, and this feeble type of hui
manity has hitherto appeared inca
pable of elevation to vigor of thought
and action. ALL the Year Round.

Republicans May Try to Elect Presi-
dent and Other Ohicers.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2s.-There is a
growing probability that the Republicans,
at their caucus on next Monday will de-
eide TO attempt to reorganize the Senate
on Republican lines and that cam
didate for President pro tenn will then
be decided on. Quite number of Re-
publican Senators, including three or four
members of the steering committee were
at the Capitol to-day, and an informal ex-
change of views among them resulted in
the general adoption of this conclusion.
There is a difference of opinion as to the
wisdom of attempting more than the elec-
ton OF a presiding officer in the beginning.
but the preponderance of opinion is that
action at that time will be conhned to
this office If the Republican candidate
succeeds in this contest the Republicans
then will place candidates In the field
for the other elective offices. So far Sem
ator Frye's names is the only one heard
in connection with the Office of President
pro tem., but there are several aspirants
for the other ofjces. Among these who
are spoken of for secretary OF the Senate
are Geo. c. Gorham, who formerly held
this office; Mr.. Durfee. who was for many
years clerk of the Senate committee on
finance, and George Baker of Kentucky.
For sergeant-at-arms. E. X. Valentine. of
Nebraska; ex-Sergant-at-arms Capt. @. A.
Curtice. of New Hampshire; Major Grant
of North Carolina and Mr.. Shaw of the
State OF Pennsylvania, are already in the
field.
