ON TEMPERANCE.
@. A. Bateman Lectured In the Scandi-
navian Hall Last Evening.

c. A. Bateman, grand lecturer of the
Good Templars in sCalifornia, who is
making a lecture tour of Montana,
spoke last evening to a small audience
in Scandinavian hall. He had for his
subject the Battle of Life, or the
Worlds Tramp" in which he gave an
interesting story of his own life. He
said the battle of life was hard enough
to fight with the usual vicissitudes IL
there were no hydra-headed monster
in the liquor traffic to oppose, but with
the arch enemy and ally of Satan, the
fight is hard indeed. The enemy, he
said, - largely in control of govern
mental affairs and strongly intrenched.
The speaker said he was often alarmed
at the indifference manifested by the
churches concerning this great ques-
ton, for temperance is the bottom
plank of Christianity and the world
hope, while drunkenness Is the bottom
plank of the worlds ruin. 1t Is Won
der the churches don't wake up to this.
The Good Templars' work is a work of
prevention and begins with the young.
Mr.. Bateman spoke of the lasting i'm
pressions of youth and said that he
carried this countryis flag to the height
of Fort Donelson while hundreds were
being shot down by his side, and he
knew no fear; but he was not brave
enough to go alone into a graveyard at
night, because of the ghost stories i'm
pressed on his mind when a child. He
also spoke of the prophesies of dreams
and said that when a boy OF years.
he dreamed that his father. then a no
ted and eloquent preacher in the state
of New York, had been brought home
in a buggy and that he was danger
ously wounded and died soon after.
Three days later his father was
brought home just as he had seen him
in his dream. with blood streaming
down his face. He did not die but be-
came a raving maniac and was con-
fined for 10 years in an asylum. While
he was in his pulpit preaching a
drunken man threw a rock through a
window. struck him on the forehead
and fractured his skull. which resulted
in his insanity. Mr.. Bateman said he
had never tasted a drop Of liquor and
did not know the taste of IL. II IL tast-
ed as Il smeSled IL was internally bad
In 1898. according to figures furnished
him by the government. the liquor
made and drank in that year would nj

canal so feet wide and 80 deep and 81
miles long. This evenings lecture was

ZEE CASES.



The decision of the supreme court on
the appeal of VIII l.. Clark, ex-clerk
Of the district court, settles the last Cd
the fee cases The first officer to con-
test the reduction of fees made by the
first state legislature was John b.
Lloyd. then sheriff. The legislature
placed all county officers on a salary
and took their fees away and also cut
Mr.. Lloyds allowance for boarding
prisoners from so cents to so cents
day for each prisoner, which made
difference of about 5000 in Mr.. LLOYD
emoluments of Office during that term.
He appealed on the ground that the
legislature could not change the emol-
umenls of an office during the term for
whickthe person was elected, but boun
the district court and the supreme
court decided against him. Mr.. Clark,
who was then clerk of the court, re-
fused to accept his salary of $1,000
year and retained the fees which
amounted, duning that term, to S11 ,52S.
Under the old law he received s., 1000 a
year and all the fees, and the county
also paid his deputies, but he did not
draw the $1,000 during the disputed
term The Office at that time was con-
sidered worth from $4,000 to $4,000 a
year. Under the decision of the SUI
preme court he is indebted to the coun-
ty the difference between the $1,000 sal
airy, to which he was entitled, and the
$11,528 In fees collected.

GONE INTO HISTORY
1t Was No BOubt Incendiary, But the
Proper Clue Is Lacking.
AN OLD LETTER WAS FOUND
The Police Are on the Lookout for
the Man or Men Who Fired Sher-
mans Warehouse and Rich
ards Store Oct. 80.

The police have so far made little
Roadway in their attempt TO discover
the parties who set fire to Sherman.
the undertaker's, warehouse, and the
Butte undertaking rooms on the even
ing of Got 80. which lack of success is
due to the fact that the incendiaries
cavered up their tracks like old hands
at the business. The officers. however.
industrously hunted for a man named
f. ]. BENEFITS for several days but
they have so far been unable TO locate
him. His name is the only clue they
have to the fire, and while bt is ac-
knowledged to be a rather faint one
they are making the most of IL.
On the day after the fire while Joe
Richards, manager of the Butte under
taking company and the Insurance
agent. were investigating the damage
done by the blaze at that place, they
discovered three old letters slightly
burned at the point where the fire was
started under a metallic casket. One
of the letters, the envelope of which
was destroyed. was written at some
place in Missouri in 1855. and was from
a mother ITO her children. The two 9TH
ers were written in 1890. and were ad-
dressed 10 +. j. BENEFITS, Butte. The
letter written in 1855 was on old-fash-
Toned blue paper and was wen pre-
served, as were also the others. They
had the appearance of having been
packed away as there were no indica-
lions of their having been carried
around.
The supposition is that the firebug
pulled these letters out of his pocket
with some other papers and threw
a little excelsior on top Of them. The
casket under which the blaze was start
ed, however, happened to be a metallic
one, nd the fire having nothing to feed
on quickly burned itself out. The three
letters referred to were on the outside
edge and escaped the flames.
The letters were turned over to the
police and they have beeen working on
the slight clue which they gave them
| ever since. They are inclined to believe
| that the letters were stolen from Mr.
| BENEFITS by some sneak thief. hut they
hope that If they can find them he may
| be able to give him some clue to the
| thief. The police have been keeping a
sharp lookout since these fires and Il
the incendiaries had any further plans
| for starting fires indiscriminately they
have been unable to carry them out.

WHAT TUNNELS COST.

New Machinery Decreasing the Amount
Necessary to Build Them.
From the Chauuauquanl
In comparing the four great tunnels
II Is interesting Ito note that time Is an
extraordinary element in the cost. The
oldest tunnel-Ho osac-cost 1919 foot;
Mount Cents, the next oldest, cost 1856
a foot; Sit. Gothard cost 1929 a foot,
and the most recent tunnel of the four
1.-The ArFberg-cost only 1854 a foot.
All four were in old-settled countries.
with abundant labor. and the very
great difference in cost per foot plainly
marks the progress OF science, because
ii was the invention and improvement
in tools that made II possible to re-
duce the time aud thus the cost. To
observe the difference between the
work on the three great European
tunnels, built by government aid in
old-settled countries, 1t may be well
to observe for moment THE work
done on a comparatively small tunnel
built far from civilization through the
Cascade mountains on the line of the
Northern Pacific railroad. The noun
tain through which the tunnel Is cut
is $3.50 feet above the sea, and the
peak Is 1855 feet above the floor of the
tunnel.
To understand the magnitude and
difficulty of this undertaking it must
be observed THAT the site of the tun-
mel, at the time the contract for it's
construction was signed, was an un-
broken wilderness. AIT the then exist
ing terminus of rail connection every
thing-men and tents. food, horses, ma
chinery, lumber. hopltals, and, in fact,
the material of the army-had to be
transported over improvised roads 81
miles through forests. through snow
and mud, to the east portal of the
tunnel. and 81 miles to the west portal.
Six months passed before all the ma
chinery was on the spot Rivers had
to be turned aside, bridges built, camps
established and men and horses col
lected, fed, housed and cared for nearly
100 miles from a locomotive. The tun-
mel is 161k feet wide and % feet high.
and the entire distance $3.50 fee) was
bored through the mountain In %
months, the rate of progress with the
power drills being Alb feet a month.
and the cost of the completed tunnel
was only s11s a foot and the entire
work was completed in rs months from
the signing OF the contract in New
York City.
