NOT A SAINT AFTER ALL.
Count Tolstoi Shown Up by VIZ
man of Ills Household.

Count Tolstoi Shown Up by Wo-
man of His Household.
An Englishwonan, Mrs. Seuron, for 10
years a governess in Count TolstoIs
family, Will shortly publish book con-
tanning her experiences and memories
during these years. She has not been
able to resist the temptation to say some
thing in advance of what the book will
contain, and an Italian journalist, hear
ing of Mrs. Seuron's presence in Rome,
hastened to interview her. Count Toll
stoi, says Mrs. Seuron, has published far
and wide that he is vegetarian, both
from economy and as an example to the
world But Countess Tolstoi, says Mrs.
Seuron, at every meal places chicken OF.
steak and other meats on the counts
plate, and he with the remark, :'No, /
never eat meat, absolutely no meat" eats
with great relish. everything the countess
serves him, and many a time Mrs. Seuron
has surprised the count coming from the
storehouse carrying slices Of cold meats
that he eats at his leisure ii. his oW'r4
study.
Mrs. Seuron insists that Cout Tolstoi is
by no means the great saint and refornleN
he would like the world to consider him.
He may possess a benevolent heart and
feeling toward his fellow beings, but the
count IS miser, and to save is his great
passion. i.
The poor people on his estate, Iasnaja-
Poljana, never receive any financial as
sistance from him, and his tenants have
in vain petitioned him to Greet a hospital
or provide fire apparatus Oh the estate,
as is the usual custom on all great Rus
sian country estates. With advice he is
very liberal, but, as the peasants say:
"What is the use of his excellency read
ing volume after volume to lis of things
we don't understand or giving us advice
that sounds very we'll but is impractical
BILE; fine words don't fill hungry stona
ach." Tenants on the Tolstoi estate
pay as high rent as on other estates and
are worked harder than on the neighhor
ing estates.
Count Tolsto: likes to pose as shin
ing example before his muschiker. Re-
turning from Maskva one day with the
English printer, Gan, as his guest, he said
to the peasants: Look I have been in
Maskva three days and nights with only
36 .kopek in my pocket and most Of it l.
still have in my possession" The good
peasants did not hear Mr. Gan explain to
the countess that Tolstoi had been his
guest and that they had amused them
selves and suffered for nothing, as some
body else had paid the bills. a -
- Tolstoi as a private man is nothing
above the ordinary. Mean and selfish as
an employer and in his conduct towards
those depending on him, 1t Is only when
his own reputation as reformer can be
advantageously brought before the public
that he places his theories in practice.
Mrs. Seuron claims that nc private spite
or disappointment has prompted the book
and that her relations with Count Tolstof's
family are and always have been pleas,
ant, and that it is only her Unborn Eng-
lish love Of fair play and justice and her
strong detestation of all shams that
brought the book to light.

Arrested In Denver for Giving a
 Bull Fight.
 "Arizona Charlie," otherwise Charlie Meadows, the we'll known Tonto basin cowboy, is now return ed from Mexico, where has been starring for over year and is now working Colorado with a Wild West show. He appears to be de. cidedly in the swim, despite occasional setbacks, one of which happened in Denver Sunday.
 He had advertised Wild West show, to be followed by genuine bull fight, and a large crowd assem bled at the Denver Wheel club grounds to witness the exhibition.
 Humane Agent Thompson entered the ring just as the bull fight began, and the crowd, seeing him, began to boot and yell. Charlie and his assistants tried to chase Thompson out by show of force, but the officer had assistance, and the participants were placed under arrest and brought to the city, amid the jeers of disappointed audience.

Among the offerings we're a good many droves

about paying higher prices even for anything of
superior quality. Common steers were saleable
as low as 81 O014 20 and beeves were worth

New Telephone Conn anles.

Butte in all likelihood is to have a
new telephone company, and cheaper
rates are to prevail. The price of tele-
phone service is showing material re-
duction all over the country. Rival
companies to the Bell are appearing
with marvellous rapidity. A new COM
pany has been formed in Augusta,
Me-, and 1t is reported that the Bell
company there will reduce its rates to
S1S. The Harrison company of Chi
cago, with more than one hundred ex-
changes in operation, has obtained
franchises at number OF towns in
Pennsylvania with the understanding
that the old rates are to be reduced
one-half. The Central Pennsylvania
company (BelD has ordered a reduc-
ton of % per cent at all its exchanges.

have been cut down go per cent. At
Chippewa Falls, Wis, tele phone serv-
ice is now s12 and at Elwood. Ind. the
Bell company's rates are S12 and SO

has bought rights for Louisiana, Mis-

set up exchanges in those states. A
rival company is asking for franchises
in Peoria, promising to charge one
third of the present rates.

Clay Pugh, the murderer of Chaun-
cey West, was yesterday sentenced to
be hanged on June IL We believe the
sentence to be just one and in &C
cordance with the sentiment of the
community. OF course the usual ap-
peals will be taken, the condemned
man is entitled to all the considera-
ton the law allows, and If there is any
good and sufficient reason why he
should not be hanged, he will not be.
But let US hope that he will escape the
gallows through no legal flaw or tech
nicality. There is small chance that
he will-the trial seems to have been
eminently fair to the defense. Now
Is the time to cultivate vigorous sem
timent against murder and murderers
They are increasing in the country at
an alarming rate.

If DR.. A. Conan Doyle can spare the
time he should 60 to San Francisco
and help out the detectives, who seem
to be all at sea. There is no direct
testimony competing young Durrant
with the murder of Miss Lamont and
Miss Williams, but the circumstantial
evidence, such as it is, is so abundant
that 1t should be very easy task for
Sherlock Holmes to establish
Durrant's guilt or innocence in a day.
Whether DIR. Doyle would prove as
clever a detective in practice as in
theory, may well be doubted. At the
same time he is credited with some ac-
tual detective work of high order in
real life. 1t won't do to sheer at such
extraordinary powers of mind as Doyle
undoubtedly possesses In "The
Mystery of Marie Roget" Edgar Allen
Poe undertook in story form and with
thinly disguised names to account for
the murder of girl named Mary
Rogers, a case that had completely
baffisd the New York police. 1t after
wards transpired that Poe's theory
was correct
