Nearly all of Butte's public school
teachers and q large number of High
school cadets left last evening for An
aconda to attend the State Teachers
association meeting, and more will go
this morning. Many teachers from
other towns Joined the Butte delegation
here. The teachers expect to have
profitable and pleasant time provided
they are permitted and providing no
attempt will be made to work any or
the schemes of which there have been
some rumors. 1t Is evident that there
will be two factions at the meeting
with the teachers on one side and the
state board OF education on the other.
II is alleged that the latter want to
control the association. while the for
mer feel that 1t belongs to the teachers.
The principal contest will be over the
election of a president of the associa-
tion and the selection Of a place for
the next meeting. Dillon. Great Falls.
Deer Lodge and Helena want the meet
ing next year. while a score of names
are on the dist of candidates for the
presidency. among whom are Professor
Charles of Miles City, Professor Foster
Of Bozeman, Professors Templeton and
Young of Helena. Professor Merritt OF
Missoula and others. The college men
would like to honor Professor Temple
ton of the Montana college, while the
east side public school teachers prefer
Professor Charles, the principal of the
Billings schools.
The state board Is determined to
elect one of their number, but cannot
agree on Superintendent Young on ac-
count Of his position on the text book
question. 1t Is said he will have the
support of some of the state board.

gave this explanation of the situation
to a Sun reporter yesterday:
"On account of the Chinese-Japanese

In Formosa. the large quantity of
crude camphor which formerly was re-
ceived from Formosa has been cut off.
The price OF camphor has been kept
down for several years because naph-
thaline is used exclusively now as a
substitute for protection against
moths. The great demand for cam
phor comes In the spring months. The
price OF camphor Is pretty certain to

In recent years the Japanese have

proved very formidable competitors of
the American refiners. The cheap la
Dor of japan made IL possible for the
Japanese to sell at a lower figure than

Much OF the camphor used In the last

ment will remodel the industry, and

Then the conductor entered. This
was the signal for a simultaneous

she smiled. No. 2 lady caught the in
lection and passed up five pennies.
Then the smile of No. l was a grin.
No. did the same, and the FIVE
ladies laughed. No. 4 was somewhat
unlucky. and while she was poxing
numerous hairpins, ribbon samples
and other ric-a-brac-which every
lady carries in her pocketbook-in
search Of her change No. fished up
her five pennies.
More laughter. somewhat increased.
Finally. No. 4 had to give IL up.
Three pennies were all she could find,
and she meekly rendered a quarter.
She received her change Immediately.
Every conductor in Boston is pleased
to receive pennies, because they are
handy in making change on transfers.
This conductor did not forget II, but
he thought his opportunity had come.
and without hesitation he dropped the
% nennies into the dainty QlOyad hand
outstretched to receive them.
The laughter had ceased by this
time. No. got real mad. and threat
ened to report the conductor. He kind
ly gave her his number. but she re-
fused to take IL.
The quintet alighted at Park square.
Then the other passengers laughed.

Potatoes Are Good for Stock.

On every farm there is a considerable
part of the potato crop which is unsala-
bic. Instead of keeping these tiny and
unsightly potatoes for the table they
should be fed to the stock. If used in
small quantities as an appetizer they
will be found profitable for all animals.
taking the place of carrots, turnips and
other roots. 1t is calculated that tho
feeding value of potatoes is about one
fourth that of corn or barley. Horses
soon become very fond of them, pre-
ferring them even to oats. They are
sometimes fed alone, but it is better to
mix them with other food. Where
they are used the water supply may be
limited. Cows eat potatoes with eager
ness, as do pigs. The tuber should not
be too watery, and should always be
fed mixed with cornmeal or mill feed.
Cooked potatoes are also excellent for
poultry.-N. Y. World.

How Horses Are Made Blind.

The pupil of horses eye is enlarged
by being kept in dark stable; he has a
harness pat on him and is suddenly
brought out in the glazing sunlight,
which contracts the pupil so suddenly as
to cause extreme pain. By persevering
in this very foolish and injudicious as
well as cruel practice the nerve of the
eye becomes impaired, and if continued
long enough loss of sight will ensue.
To see how painful it is to face bright
light after having been in the dark
take walk some dark night for short
time till the eyes become used to the
darkness, then drop suddenly into some
well-lighted room, and you will scarce
ly be able to see for few moments in
the sudden light. You know how pain
ful it is yourself, then why have your
horses to repeatedly bear such unneces-
sary pain?-Colman's Rural World.

PRIZE ANCoNAS.

having been called to the egg capabili-
ties of this breed, they have taken it
up and if it possess anything like the
merit claimed we may soon see it enter
ing into competition with the Leghorn
variety.
So far the Anconas are practically I'M
known in this country, but we will
doubtless have them in time. They are
described as notified throughout in
plumage and of neat and attractive
appearance. They resemble the Min
Orcas in many respects, but are gener-
ally rather smaller. They are great
layers and non-sitters. The eggs are
white shelled and of good quality. They
are of rather small size when from pull
cts, but this defects corrected the next
season. The breed is generally con-
sidered to result from the crossing Of
blacl. and white Minorcas, but many be-
lieve that they are closely related to the
Leghorns instead. This theory would
seem to find confirmation in the habits
of the birds, which possess the activity
and foraging qualities of the Leghorns.
They also mature early and are small
eaters, turning their food into eggs
rater than into flesh. OF course, they

Gers Must Have Been Life of Care and
Trouble.
Nimrod was mighty hunter. He
wss probably that way from boy,
always hunting. He ran away from
school to hunt woodchucks. Put him
at work in the hay field, and, unless
he was watched, he would hunt a cool,
shady place to- lie down. When he grew
up he hunted a wife, we suppose, and
every spring he had the usual expert
ence in house hunting. And there has
been mighty sight of mighty hunters
in that direction ever since Nimrod's
day.
We hear nothing about Mrs Nimrod,
but we will bet anything her life was
not happy one. When there was
house cleaning to do Nimrod would
shoulder his gun and start off to hunt
squirrels And some day, after she had
done a big washing, he would come
home from the hunt at eleven or twelve
o'clock at night and insist upon her
getting up a game dinner for himself
and lot of brother sportsmen that he
had brought with him, and all of them
more or less under the infiunce of
'budge." How tired she must have got

hunts he had engaged in.-Texas Sift-

- THE CELESTIAL EMPIRE.

Storekeepers in China seldom give
credit. If their patrons need money
they borrow it of the money-lenders.
The oldest firearms were used in
China. The Chinese were fighting with
guns at time when Europeans used
bows and arrows.
The Chinese have a singularly com
plicated calendar. Their cycles have
go years, each year, month and day
having its own name, and by combin-
ing these the day, month and year are
designated.
The foot of Chinese woman, from
the heel to the great toe, measures only
four inches; the great toe is bent
abruptly backwards, and its extremity
pointed directly upwards; while the
phalanges of the other toes are doubled
in beneath the sole of the foot.

LIVE STOCK NOTES.

Low wet lands are no place for sheep.
The footing of sheep must be dry.
1t is an old adage that there is gold in
the track of the sheep, but it seems to be
covered up these days.
The first one hundred pounds of a
sheep cost less per pound than the
weight afterwards added. 1t does not
pay to feed sheep too long.
1t is claimed that an acre of corn fod-
der is worth two acres of timothy. That
1t is worth more is certain, if it is good
fodder, but how much more we are not
prepared to say.
The practice on some fapns of throw
ing corn and stalks to the hogs so that
corn is before them all the time is bad.

RENEWING THEIR YOUTH
a Strange Story from a Nebraska
Village.
The Villagers Excited Over the Increased
Health and Vigor of the Older In
habitants-The Experience of
Two "Vets."
From The World Herald, omaha. No


A World Herald reporter was attracted by
the evidence of renewed activity of some of
the older inhabitants of the village of Bruce,
a suburb of Omaha, Neb., and enquired the
cause. Mr.. Andrew Finkenkeler, who was
member of Company B of the First Iowa
Volunteers during the war, made the fol-
lowing explanation 80 far as he himself is
concerned:
''In July, 1866, while my company was on
the march through to Austin, Tex, was at
tackled with rheumatism of the worst kind
in one leg at Alexander, La. Being weak l
was sunstruck and remained unconscious
Tor several hours. Every summer since
have been unable to stand the heat of the
sun, and have been compelled to give up my
work. There was in my head a bearing
down feeling which increased until it seemed
my head would burst, and it caused ring
ing in my ears, and palpitation of the heart
set in, so that the slightest noise would set
my heart humping. Several times it has
rendered me unconscious for from seven to
ten hours at a time. In addition to this
the rheumatism extended up my entire side
until it drew my head down on my shoulder.
l lost my strength and flesh and was totally
unfit for work.
"For twenty-eight years l have consulted
physicians and taken their prescriptions
without deriving any material benefit. Ny
ailments increased in intensity until l was
assured that there was no hope for me.
During last year l went into the butcher
business, but thedampnesS from theice used
increased my rheumatic pains to such an
extent that l was not only compelled to quit
the business, but was confined to my house
and bed for nearly six months.
in November last | read in the World
Herald a case of man who had been entire
ly cured from the ailments from which
was suffering, by the use of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. On November
20 / purchased a box. In a week / was as
tonished to know thatI felt better than had
for six months past, and before had used
half box, the ringing in my ears began
to lessen in volume and finally left me. The
pain from the rheumatism gradually left me,
so that within one week from the time took
my first pill | was able to sit up in bed. On
January 1st, | was able to go out and walk
around little. The palpitations of my
heart entirely ceased. On February 9, /
was so thoroughly cured that l accepted a
position as nightwatchman in the Forest
Lawn Cemetery, remaining out of doors
from p. m. until a. m. I have gained in
weight from IA pounds, which l weighed
in November last, to 172 pounds which l
weigh now.n

blood Pink Pills are unexcelled. They may
