fore the people, who ought to be the
rulers of the land, command even a
quarter of their votes-ought it not
to be promptly corrected? And then,
when the status quo" is thus restor-

afterward to propose an internation-

settling of values, and paralysis OF
business-namely for the government
to redeem at its own option in gold
or silver or national bond, as pro-
posed when the greenback was first
issued, approximating but not quite
equal to coin in value; and using the
greenbacks thus funded in the pur-
chase Of our per cent loans in the
open market, thus avoiding present
contraction and ultimately reducing
all our government interest to or

Helena, Feb. 1.-THE city council set
tied the women-in-beerh question to-
night, so far as Helena is concerned, by
revising the city ordinance so as to per-
init women TO take part in concert hall
programmes. The provision prohibiting
women walters i'm saloons or concert halls
was allowed to remain as before. This
means that the crusade begun some time
ago by the Ministerial Alliance has ended
in a failure. although the alliance sue
ceeded in convicting one of the beer hall
proprietors in violation of the old ordi-
nance, for which he was fined 81.

A STRANGE PHENOMENA
The Mysterious Light That "a Man of
Science Saw.

Science saw.
An amusing little incident is relat-
ed of Sir Humphry Davy by F. NJ. F.
Skene. who was acquainted with the
famous man of science. He was, 1t
seems. in the habit of wearing, in the
seclusion of his home, a comfortable,
wide-fowing dressing-gown ana an
old fashioned peaked night cap. one
evening, arrayed in this simple cos
tune, he was studying some profound
work of natural science In MS chan-
Der, the heavy book resting upon Ut
tie table over which he bent eagerly to
pore over its intricate problems by the
light of a single candle.
Suddenly, his attention was caught
by a curious phenomenon. On the cell
ing of his room appeared a bright cir
Gle of light which did not look like
the common circle of reflection from
lamp He gazed at it with increasing
interest. 1t was unsteady, yet persist
emit and he was entirely unable TO ac-
count for its presence.
He extinguished his light, but IT still
remained, and he was fast becoming
more and more puzzled, and was run
ming over mentally all the strangest
possibilities of electricity, polarized
light and other scientific phenomena
when he became aware of a new fact.
The mysterious light was accompanied
by an odor. 1t was peculiar odor; not
sulphurous, but rather like that pro-
duced by burning wooden material.
Presently, there was a slight sizzling
sound, as of scorching hair. moment
later he experienced sensation OF
warmth-excessive warmth-in the re-
gion of his scalp. He put his hand to
his head, and the mystery was ex-
planned.
He was not, he learned with much
disgust, on the brink of any great sci
entific discovery. Bending over the big
tome on the table, the tassel of his
nigh cap had swung into the flame of
the candle and taken fire, and the dane
ing circle on the ceiling was neither
more nor less than the reflection of the
blazing ruin of the headgear perched
upon his own unconscious head.
