ade Decoration Day.

The Anaconda fire department was
permanently recognized on Thursday
evening at the fire hall. j. NJ. Kennedy

offices filled as follows: Wee president,
James johnson; treasurer, Barney Nc
Ginley; secretary, Louis Schultz; chief, j..
A. Hasley; assistant chief, p. j. Maloney |;
trustees, j. r. Walkup, Joseph stevens
and Dan Dunn.
The new department contains a por-
ton of the old department and many
Others who have served apprenticeships
in other cities as firemen. The compan-
les meet for practice regularly and a rule
is to be established that all those who fail
20 attend the practice meetings will be
dropped from the roll.
The president will announce commit
tees at the next meeting which will be
held on Tuesday evening of next week.
The members of the old department
who were SO anxious to withdraw from
the city SERVICE" are now practically
withdrawn and the city is in as good a
condition for fighting fire as ever. There
were taken from the fire house lot of
trophies, banners, etc., one eventful night
not long since, the ownership of which
is in question. They belonged to no one
individually and were taken away by men
who had no share in the winning of them.

partment and the city hall. An effort to
regain them will undoubtedly be made,
and il arguments do not avail there will
probably be authority invoked which must
be respected to secure the city's property.
The department will meet Tuesday
night to complete arrangements for join

IL looks very much as IL the Old slate
and pencil of our school-boy days will
be unknown to the school children OF
the next generation. says the Philadel-
phia Record Already these old aids "a
education have been banished from our
public schools through the efforts of
hygienic enthusiasts. The arguments
urged against the use of the slate and
pencil are that the pencil markings on
a slate are more or less indistinct and
hence trying upon the eyes; that the
resistance of the hard pencil upon the
hard slate is trying to the muscles.
and, most particularly, that the use of
these articles is unhealthy. The fes-
tive microbe is supposed to revel in
the neigborhood OF the states and the
sponges which are used in cleaning
them. There are some. however, who
contend that the use OF pencil. Taper
and rubber might prove TO be lust as
bad from a sanitary standpoint in the
hands of a child not over-parti -uIar
about his habits. However, IL looks
very much as If the slate and pencil will
soon go to join the abacus Of our an
cestors.

A Few People Who Have Gone to Texas
Pesonal Mention.
The editor of the Arkansas Pass, Tex,
Herald is former Montanan, and by a
recent issue of his paper it seems that
there are lots of people in that city from
this state and they are looking for more
of them soon. The following are clipped
from the Herald:
The Montana colony in Arkansas Pass
was augmented by the arrival of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Brazelton last Monday night.
They came from the city of Deer Lodge,
where Mr.. Brazelton for many years &C.
cupied important public positions, and
was extremely popular both as a public
official and as private citizen. Mr.. and
Mrs. Brazelton expect to become perma-
nent residents of Arkansas Pass, and will
be decided acquisitions to the society of
this place. They will be followed by many
other Montanans who are watching ca
gerly for the commencement of opera
tons on the harbor improvements.
S&s
j. II. Mccarthy, who bought property in
Arkansas Pass last winter, is now in Butte,
Mont, awaiting news of the harbor con-
tract. When it comes he will embark in
business here. One business house in the
great mining camp Is a regular Arkansas
Pass headquarters, where future resi-
dents of this port meet daily to discuss
its future.
Col. j. III. Curtis, n promin ent and
wealthy citizen of Butte, Mont, intends
to visit Arkansas Pass next month. BY
next winter this coast will be the Mecca
of many Montanans who have heretofore
spent their winters in California.
A complimentary ball was given to Miss
Alice Mallory at the Bayview hotel, Rock
port, last night. Among the guests were
Mr.. and Mrs. John Brazleton and Mr..
w. f. Bickenbach of the Montana
colony at Arkansas Pass. They say
they had a royal time.
Malcolm Graham of Montana, who has
been at Rockport the last two weeks, re-
turned to Arkansas Pass Tuesday evening,
and went to San Antonio yesterday.

THE SLEEPING KINGS.

The breath that swelled the bugle blast
Or woke the warcry's stormy thrill,
Though cold the breasts it hndled last
Is heard in freedom 5 anthems still.
Our sacred slain! In death they won
A cause whose justice never dies;
And all our land from SUN to sun
Is radiant with their sacrifice.
First heroes of final strife,
The proud degrees of fame they fill;
Ennobled from the files of life
To kings by right of brave good will.
Each rules in sleep conquered realm.
We ask not here what pillowed head
Wore corded hat or feathered helm.
They all are crowned among the dead.
We own our sway, our homage decks
With offerings sweet their chambers
green,
Their scepters touch our reverent necks
AS round their silent thrones we lean.
No tears for them. Imperial yet
Their honors bloom with rich increase;
And all nation s love is set
To guard their palaces Of peace.
Bring tribute to their persisted prime,
Their country's loss, our freedoms gain
And, wreathed with fairest flowers Of time,
In glory let them rest and reign
Theron Brown in Youths Companion.

of his neck that sent terrible shivers
through his whole body.
Springwell declares with all express
sion that is indubitable evidence Of his
honesty that he will never forget this
awful ride till the last moment Of his
life The sensation accompanying this
mad flight he says he is powerless to
describe. There was not only the horri-
BILE thought that he was in the power Of
the supernatural, but other emotions
that he says no language can ever por-
tray were concomitant His very soul
was swayed by their intensity and
seemed to be in shadow Of something
inexpressibly terrorsome and ghoulish.
On he flew, and he could make out
shadowy something dancing before him,
something vague Of outline and white
in color. It danced now here, now
there, and he felt rather than saw that
it was mocking him. On in the leader
ship of this phantom he flew. He cross
ed the Belt line tracks with bound,
then felt he was slowing up. But still
he kept on until the curve that Della
ware avenue takes before it reaches the
culvert where the Park road passes over
it. Ahead he could see the white SHIN
mer of an electric light Illuminating its
dazzling circle beneath it. He felt the
icy hands that had never relaxed their
pressure from the moment he had first
felt them loosen bit Of their grip.
He was regaining control But the
machine seemed to be dragging some
thing behind it. He felt he could now
turn and see the ghostly monster behind
him. He craned his head bit, and at
that moment he felt terrible blow
over the head. Stunned, he dropped
from his wheel and lay on the pave
ment. He describes the half glimpse Of
the thing behind him as something too
inexpressibly monstrous to attempt to
portray.
He lay on the pavement for some five
minutes, when Zeiler came up. He was
riding like mad. Zeiler stopped when
he saw his friend and helped him to his
feet. When Springwell told his story,
at first Zeiler thought he was joking,
but he was finally convinced from the
look Of abject terror in Springwell' q
face They revisited the place next day,
springwell unstrung and hardly able to
wheel. From the spot where he first felt
the power Of the something to where he
was hit is exactly three miles and few
rods over.
Springwell wrote to the man from
whom he bought the wheel, and he re-
ceived an answer that is certainly queer.
The dealer said that man brought the
wheel in in good shape and asked q
very small price for it, and that he, the
dealer, thinking it had been stolen,
would not buy it. The man swore it had
not been stolen, and offered to let it re-
main there until he was satisfied. He
had kept it through the winter and new
er sign Of any claimant; hence he had
sold it.
Springwell is at loss to account fol
the strange occurrence. He is utterly
unable to say what could have been thu
cause, save on the hypothesis that somt
man was murdered while on it, and thai
it has thus become haunted. However
that may be, the fact remains that thu
