accurate denotement Of the right course
and realism. Mr.. Harrigan, in his text
and action, reproduces the absolutely
natural without succumbing to the
seemingly inevitable commonplace He
has gone straight TO the heart of ma
ture for his story and his characters,
but he has glorified it and idolized il

POSING RIVER DUMPING.

monthly meeting of the board Of di-
rcctors of the Trades League, the meet
ing also settled. i'm q manner which
most of the directors think will be sat
isfactOiy TO all interested, the long
standing controversy over the advisa-
bility of dumping material dredged
from the Delaware river in the work
of improvement into the river again.
At the last meeting resolutions were
adopted expressing the opinion of the
league that dumping in the river was
inadvisable and that material should
be placed on shore. Copies were sent
TO Major Raymond and the secretary
Of war. Major Raymond. in a letter TO
"a league. said that he had been mis-
quoted in the preamble of the resolu-
tions. and asked that the resolutions
he amended so that he might be set
right
After the letter had been read ex-
Governor Pattiaon said he thought in
Justice had been done Major Raymond
in leaving out the qualifying para
graph OF the quotation. and on his mo-
ton the secretary was directed TO
write to the major. expressing regret
and assuring him that there was no de-
sign to reflect on him or do him injus-
tice.
Professor Haupt, chairman Of the
committee. being absent, a reply to the
letter of Major Raymond presented as
report of the committee, was read by
Mr. Mcllvaine This report called at
tention TO land on which material
could be dumped. and charged the
dredging companies with opposing it,

material on shore The report was re-
ceived and ordered to be filed.

Ainsworth, Il. c., reports the sale OF
the Twin claim for $50. 600 $4,000 being paid
down and the balance in two and four
months. The buyers are Montreal peo-
pie, and they express an intention of do
ing strictly development work for the
present year, and the first move will be
TO start deep level crosscut tunnel to
reach all the numerous veins on the
property. The same parties secured prices
on several other claims in the camp. and
as soon as the snow disappears enough
to permit examinations it is probable
one or two sales of unusual magnitude
will be consummated, The Twin claim Is
situated in the north section Of the camp,
a section that has increased rapidly in
interest of late, and in which are situated
the Highland, Augusta, Last Chance,
Gallagher Bugaboo, etc. and which it
is expected will be connected with town
by a wagon road this summer it being
understood the government has provided
for its building.

Don't Go to Brazil.

Brazil is not n profitable place to go
to without capital. Our Consul at Para
utters this warning to Americans, de-
claring that energy and push" are not
enough for emigrants to start with.
He says: NO Americans coming to
Para without the means to maintain
themselves while acquiring the Ian
guage and seeking employment can
have much chance of success.
THAT language is Portuguese, and
one must know it in order to find en-
plOyment. Para has more applicants
than positions. Salaries are small. and
living the most expensive in the world.
Nearly everything consumed mere is
imported, and pays very high import
duty. Salaries for clerks are from SO
to $40 a month. The uncertain and
everchanging value of the money has
an injurious effect upon trade. None
suffer more from it than they who work
for wages, for while the cost Of living
is made dearer by the financial condi-
ton of the country, salaries Undergo
little or no change as the money fluctu-
ateS in value. AS to outdoor labor, no
white American who exposes AimSclf,
as he would be compelled to do, to the
suns burning rays. wet season, could
hope to escape the yellow fever.
1T is true, money is plentiful and the
expectation of natural products guar
antees permanent prosperity to this
part of Brazil; but no one can success
fully deal in rubber unless he has a
large capital. The competition is great.
In the rubber field, men without money
can play no part, unless they become
rubber gatherers, in which case they
would have ten chances for death
against life. On some of the rivers, 80
per cent. of the natives die who go
there.
The value of the milreis is the low
est in the. history of Brazil as it now
requires over 61a milreis to buy 81

BRIBERY CHARGES IN MONTANA.
Grand Jury Report OH the state Cap
itOI Commission.

Helena. Mont. April 28.-During the
legislature a minority investigating COM
mittee report was submitted by repre-
sentative Whiteside, saying that the capt.
tol building commission had been manlp-
ulated by few of the members, ana tha'
contracts had been corruptly entered INTO
The grand jury says that the report OF
Representative Whitesde was fully sub
stantiated, but adds that owing to the
death of State Architect PaulSon, no IN
dictments could be brought. The jury
had documentary evidence OF crooked
ness which Mr.. Paulson explained 10 the
Jury before he died, which could not De
used in court of law unless he were
alive to explain 1t.
The report says that several contracts
were drawn up between the commission
ers and Architect Mann of the building
and that the one he signed was purpose
ly altered and omissions made to give
him a great advantage, by which he mas
now received warrants for $22, 500 that he
was not entitled to.
The secretary of the commission,
George +. Marsh of Butte is said by the
grand Jury to have kept an incorrect rec
ord Of the proceedings in conformity with
the intention of the commissioners 10 de-
fraud the state. and not according to the
law prescribing his duties.

General c. Lloyd. Referring to the last
legislature, which 1t was charged TO IN
vestgate the jury says there Is no doubt
that a great many "cinch" bills were in
troduced and much money was used to
obtain and defeat legislation, but the
evidence at hand while convincing to the
members, would not be available in sur
ficient force to insure convictions.
