IT'S A DANDY CIRCUS
the Great Syndicate Shows and Pari
Hipp0drome

Hppodrome
The Butte. Mont, correspondent of the
Anaconda Standard says the following of
the New Great Syndicate Shows, which
are advertised to exhibit here on Friday
and Saturday, Septem ber 6 and Z: 4
Talk about your circuses, the one
given by the Great Syndicate and Paris
Hippodrome has certainly broken tha rec
ord SO far as Butte in concerned. Such a
jam as was attracted to the circus grounds
on the afternoon of the Fourth was never
seen here before, and doubtless was never
seen in any city of it's size. If Butte can
claim to be q good Judge of any particu.
lar ming, it can certainly, claim to be a
good Judge OF circus, and the judgment
OF the people who went to the circus was
that 1t was show that to miss was to
miss an event, and that it was mighty
good show to see twice.
so great was the crowd in the after
noon that two performances had to be
given instead of one. The circus tent was
filled plumb to the apex at the first per-
formance. Not only was every seat occu-
pied. but standing room was ali taken,
and boys climbed up on the tent poles be-
cause there was no place else to get
The management had everything so
well arranged, however, that the sho W
proceeded to the delight of all, without
any hitch or inconvenience, except what
was necessarily caused bv the terrific
thunder Storm when the rain came down
in torrents. The management had been
forced to stop selling tickets for the first
performance, but another was given at
O'Clock, when the pig tent was again
filled.

the evening performance. ana. as there
was no rain to interrupt, complete salts

Flies Have a LanQunYe

An ingenious inquirer, armed with a
microphone, or soune magniter. has been
listening through long hours to the
curious noises made by house flies, and
reports his belief that they have a Ian
guage of their own. The language does
not consist OF the buzzing sound we or
dinarily hear. which is made by the
rapid vibration of their wings in. the air.
but of smaller, finer and more widely
modulated series of sounds, audible to
the human ear only by the aid of the
microphone. Probably this fly conversa-
tion is perfectly audible to the fly ears.
which, as every school BOY knows who
has tried to move his hand slowly upon
them, are very acute. The hope is ex-
pressed that, since the heretofore inaudi-
BILE whispers of flies have been detected
and recorded, some inventor may con-
struct a microphone which will enable us
to make out the language of the microbes,
and so surprise them in the horrible
secret of their mode of operation.

To Tell When Your Letter VIII be Collected

Edwin 9. Madden, one of the postoffice
employees at Detroit, has invented an in
dicator to be attached to letter boxes,
which serves many purposes. When a
man goes to the box to post letter the
indicator shows him just what time the
last collection was made, when the next
one is TO be scheduled, ana when his let
ter will be at the postotiice. The present
system OF time cards is almost useless.
The. present scheme makes record OF the
Work OF the Eostman and they cannot for
the sake OF making up time SKIP boxes.
The indicator works automatically and
shows the number OF collections, the time
and the. frequency. None of the ma
chinery is on the inside of the box. 1t
Is valuable impro sement.-Chicago

Leaving the Arctlcs

The colder regions OF the globe are be-
says DR.. d. G. Brinton, the arctic and
sub-arctic zones have fewer inhabitants
than half century ago. One cause is the
destruction of the native tribes by the
introduction of new modes of life, new
diseases, alcohol ana idleness. Another
influence is the fact that the arctic re-
gions. like the mountains, we're originally
chosen as homes only by refugees Of
conquered and dispersed bands, and all
who can return to less severe climates
are now doing so. The center of popula-
ton tends more and more to fix between
the forty fifth and ffty-tifth degrees of
latitude.

HALL AND MAILER
The Famous CastIeman-NcAIeer Race Crops
Out Again

Out AGAIN
Another chapter of the Castleman-
McAleer. race was concluded today when
L. Q. Hall and Tom McAleer received
notice from the racing board that they
were Isuspended from all track racing
until they present evidence showing their
innocence. 1t will be- remem bered that
Hall is accused of breaking into the tick
ct office at Athletic park on the day of
the race and forcibly seizins the tickets
and cash contained therein. The racing
board of the League of American Wheel
men took the matter in hand and re-
versed the referse's decision, gave the
race to Castleman, and ordered McAleer
to refund the prize AMI Hall to refund
the gate receipts. This was not done,
and both are now suspended.
T. z. Hall was seen regarding the mat
ter, and gave an outline of his defense
before the board. He claims that the
tickets used at the gate on the day OF the
race were the property of the Los Ange-
les Athletic club, and were loaned to him
as McAleer's manager. He used no force
to gain entrance to the ticket office, but
for the purpose of returning them to the
club. while the cash he held to balance
up his accounts with. The articles of the
race said that the referees decision
should be final, and although Castleman
claimed foul, the referee, J. W. Allen,
gave the race to McAleer. An appeal by
Uastleman to the racing board followed,
and after some time the decision was re.
versed and Castleman was awarded the
race. McAleer and Hall both failed to
comply with the demands of the board,
and as a result have been suspended An
idea has gained ground that they would
be turned professionals, but tnat would
oe impossible, owing to the nature of the
charge. Both Hall and McAleer are COD
tident that they can prove to the satisfac-
ton of the board that they are innocent,
and both nave written long explanations
of the affair. The whole business is to
be deplored, as such occurrences tend to
lower a sport that should be as clean as
it is exciting.

JOHN BRINK ARRESTED
He Is Charged With Obstructing the
Sidewalk

John Brink was arrested last evening
about 7:30 O'Clock by Officer Lenhausen,
who charged him with obtstructing the
Sidewalk in front of the Orpheum on
Main street. Mr.. Brink deposited SIS bail.
Mr.. Brink was very indignant over the
affair and stated that the officer had acted
in a highhanded manner and without
cause. Mr.. Brink says that he was stand
ing in front of the Orpheum cigar stand
came up and told him to move on. He
explained that he had to wait for his
friend. and said that he was not obstruct-
ing the street. Mr.. Lenhausen then called
Officer Harris. who stated that Mr.. Brink
should be arrested if he refused to move.
The point made by both officers was tina t
city ordinance would be violated if
Brink stood there. and they were paid to
see that no infringement occurred. Mr..
Brink refused to move, whereupon he was
placed under arrest.
He says that lie propose to bring
charges against the officer.

Bound to Bear Fruit

An apple tree in Union park is covered
with dainty white and pink blossoms
that are usually considered the harbin-
gers and advance guard of spring. This
tree blossomed early under the fervid rays
OF the hot sun of April last, but the
promise OF fruit seemed meager. So,
with true Chicago spirit, the tree has
again robed itself in perfumed blossom,
triumphant wealth of ruddy fruit in
spite OF its late start. rt.-Chicago Tribune.

ZERAH'S SPECIFIC INDICATIONS

Go straight TO the diseased organs and
can be plainly felt at work in the diseased
parts very shortly after their use is be-
gun. They are pleasant to take, mild,
but searching in action. yet agree with
the most delicate lady or child, do not re-
duce the strength. and can be used al the
usual occupation, as many patients still
able to work and attend to business
are often slowly, surely, yet uncon-
sciously dying, knowing themselves to be
ill, yet deceived into a false security.
They procrastinate and put off the matter
until the case is incurable. Call and be
examined and at least learn the cause of
your disease and if you can be cured. 1t
costs you nothing and may save your life.
A legal written guarantee to cure or re-
fund the money is given in every case.

ONE OF THE WEBER MURDERERS ARRESTED,

the sawdust in one of the toilet-rooms in
the prison, which created the widest
excitement In police circles.
Stevens also told the captain of a con-
fesslon that kovalev, while SOLDERING up
from big drunk, had made to Vladislaw
Zakrewskie, a carpenter, that he had muir
dered merchant in Sacramento. Detec-
tive Cody found the carpenter last Friday
on Seventh and Minnesota streets, where
he resides. Cody and Policeman Tobin or;
the same night arrested Kovalev III a room
at 715 Howard street and took him to the
City Prison. Arnold Levin, ieweler and
clockmaker, who was sleeping in the same
room with kovalev, was also arrested.
The following day, Saturday, Captain
Lees procured the assistance of three in
terpreters and through them ZakrewskIe
made the following statement:
About the latter part OF February Dubroff
made statement to me about IL o'cock, noon,
with nobody present in the house but himself
suspected that he was in some trouble, and so
l got him drunk to find ont what it was. He
was between drunk and sober, and he told me
that he had been watching a store with an
other man for three days at Sacramento. After
piping the house for three days he and his
partner went around to the back yard at 10
O'Clock at night One of them went into the
yard and the other hid behind a door on bal
cony.
One of the men (Dubroff) found a Ratchet
and hid behind the door, and when the man
who owned the store came upstairs with a
candle in his hand-the man with gray
beard, as Dubrotf described him-then Dubroff
took the Ratchet went toward the old man
and struck him on the forehead, and as he did
so the man yelled 'I'm murdered; Pm killed. -
When Dubroff knocked him down he called up
his partner. Then they both entered the
house and then saw woman in the middle OF
the room in the house. and they asked her for

GUARDSMEN ON BICYCLES,
Organization of a Cycling Corps
in the First Regi-
ment.
Prime-MoverS in a Modern Military
Strategy-They Wear Fatigue
Uniforms.

The National Guard of California enjoys
the distinction of being the only National
Guard in the United States having bicy-
Gle corps. To be sure, the corps has not
been officially admitted into the service,
but it will be admitted as soon as the pro-
motors of the novel military scheme are
ready to ask for official recognition.
Meanwhile the corps has been thor
ougbly organized and uniformed and is at
tached to the First Regiment.
The present membership is thirty and
will be increased as rapidly as prospective
recruits supply themselves with the all
needful bicycle.
The uniform is, of course, distinctively
military. 1t consists OF cap, such as is
worn by regular army officer and the
regulation military sea-blue trousers, alb
breviated into knickerbockers or else hid
den away in leggins. A regulation fatigue
blouse and white sweater, on which is
pinned five-pointed star, completed the
fetching dress of the corps.
The officers are as follows: Captain,
John F. Norton; first lieutenant, William
Mcneil; second lieutenant, James Hicks.

CALLS IT AN IMPOSTURE.
The Spanish American Fake
Exposed and Its Proprietor
Convicted.
REYNOLDS PLEADS GUILTY.
Officer Wright Captures John Gull
len, Alias Starky-Decrease
In the Traffic.

If there is meaner fraud in the world
terry ticket. And if there can be more
transcendently contemplate fraud than a
counterfeit lottery ticket, it is that kind OF
bogus lottery ticket which is so palpably
fake that the very smallest rascal in the
world one that counterfeits lottery
tickets-would not stoop SO low as to coun-
terfeit.
In this connection it may be stated, with
a certainty beyond all dispute, that if yor
care to invest your money in either a
Spanish American" a state Govern
ment,' Montana" or "Kansas City,
lottery ticket, you may do so In perfect
security that the ticket you buy is not a
counterfeit. 1t is palpa BILE fake-so pal.
pable that no one will take the trouble to
counterfeit it. There are a good many coun-
terfeit lottery tickets on the market
More than one half of all the Honduras
and Little Louisiana and Mexican tickets
sold in this City are counterfeits. But be
easy in mind if you buy Spanish Ameri-
can for instance. 1t isn't counterfeit.
You may be very, very certain of that, for
you couldn't find man in the world that
is big enough fool to counterfeit such a
ticket. Oh, it's genuine. It's real paper,
real type and real ink-and real rascal
that pays for the printing of them. But
right there the reality ends-except for the
reality of the fools that buy them.
There were 1900 such fools in San Fran
cisco already in this month. The draw
Ing" takes place July 5. Be sure you get
all you win. The drawing is advertised on
the tickets, to be held in Havana, Cuba,
and Louis Perez is said to be the president.
Presumably the tickets are sent here from
Cuba.
In reality they are printed on CONNER
cial street and are got up so cheaply that
not even the Autograph or engraving
process is employed in their making. The
police are on the track of the printer who
gets out these tickets, and some of these
days there will be big seizure of fake
lottery tickets.
The experienced lottery-ticket fiend
needs no proof as to the character of the
Spanish American fake, and if all the
greenhorns in the world-the FARMERS, /"
as Chimmie would call them-could only
read the following communication from
the Spanish Consul to the Chief of Police,
Agent c. P. Reynolds promised reforma-
ton would come about easily and surely
enough:
