Death of A. p. Stayens.

A. P. Stevens died this morning about
s o'clock, of pneumonia, at his residence,
61S Birch street, says the Anaconda Re-
corder of March 1. Mr. Stevens had been
i'll for only five days, and his condition
was not considered serious by his friends
until yesterday. He was an early resi-
dent of Anaconda and for number of
years was employed in the Montana
Union paint shops in this city. When J.
W. Nelson became sheriff in January,
1898, he appointed Mr.. Stevens as deputy
in this city, which position be filled until
near the close of Mr. Nelson's term of
office. Mr.. Stevens was born near Mans
field, Ohio, and at the breaking out of the
war, together with his father and two
brothers, he volunteered to fight for his
country. He is said to have been only
boy when he entered the army. He was
a member of the local G. A. r. post of
this city. Mr.. Stevens remains were
buried on Tuesday afternoon by George
G. Meade Post of Anaconda.
George soule has on exhibition at his
taxidermist establishment the finest spec
linen of a grizzly bear ever seen in Bill
ings, and it is doubtful whether finer
one can be found anywhere in the coun.
try. The animal was killed near Lewis
ton and belongs to Sullivan & Kerns, sa-
loon men of that city, who are fortunate
in having it so we'll mounted. The bear
is monster in size and must have
weighed 1,100 or 1900 pounds and looks
so life like that person can scarcely re-
press shudder when he first beholds it.
Mounted as it is, the animal would prob
ably be worth $1,000 or $1,000 in Chicago
or New York.-Billings Gazette.
Fayette Wilkerson was arrested last
week by the Salmon City authorities at
the instigation of Sheriff Irvine, charged
with stealing cattle and brought to Ste
vensville. He plead guilty to the charge
of petit larceny and was sentenced to 100
days in the county Jail at hard labor. The
offense was stealing cattle of J. L. Hum
BILE. Wilkerson is also charged with
stealing cattle belonging to the Bitter
Root Stock Farm people, for which of
fense he will be tried at the May
term Of court, at which time his
present sentence expires. The officers
have conclusive proof of his guilt and it
is quite probable he will serve time at
Deer Lodge.-Hamilton News.

Make the Most Of Yourself.

1t is the duty of every man to make
the most of himself. Whatever his
capacities may be, he is sure to find
some place where he can be useful to
himself and to others. But he cannot
reach his highest usefulness without
good health and he cannot have good
health without pure blood. The blood
circulates to every organ and tissue
and when it is pure, rich and healthy
it carries health to the entire system,
but if it is impure it scatters disease
wherever it flows. Hoods Sarsapa
rila is the one true blood purifier Ii
cures salt rheum, scrofula, catarrh
dyspepsia and rheumatism because
these diseases have their origin in
the blood.

world always listens to a man with a

The only worthy end of all learning,

A loving confidence in the God we

When God sends darkness, let it be

Story OF William and Lucy Smith.
Restraining grace is an amazing

Truths Told In a Few Words.

A child's respect for its parents is
not secured by over leniency any more
than by over-severity.
A daughter should never seek nor
be allowed to "outdress" her mother.
In every family the mother should be
the best-dressed member.
The discarded hnery of daughter
should never constitute a mothers
wardrobe. No one feels especially
dignihed in the presence of one whose
old clothes she is wearing, and a
mother should at all times preserve
her dignity before her children. The
mother who never loses her queenli-
ness will never lose her crown.
Preven.able misfortunes consist,
chiefly, of manifold things little to do,
but immense things to have done.
The man who earns one dollar and
spends two, and the man who earns
two and spends one stands on either
side of the hair-line between needless
ness and discretion, between ruin and
safety.
Parents generally receive that mea.
sure of filial respect they deserve
not always perhaps, but very gener-
ally.
When a mother allows her daughter
to appropriate her wraps, gloves, wells
or other articles of personal attire,
she begins policy of familiarity which,
sooner or later breeds contempt. A
respect for ones belongings engender:
a respect for their possessor.-LadieS

Moving of the Harvest.

After every harvest, especially a
wet one, there is sure to be a rank
growth of weeds that until harvest
have been kept back by the growth
Of grain. So soon as that is removed
they have all the soil to themselves,
and if rain occurs while the weather
is warm a greater amount OF plant
food than the field has previously
furnished. No wonder that the weeds
hnd these conditions so favorable
that they quickly overshadow the
grass and clover seedlings. The only
way to cure this evil is to go over the
piece with the mower set high enough
to miss most OF the clover and there
fore not leaving much of a mulch
over it when cut. If this is done, the
rag'weed and other weeds that crowd
out the clover will themselves be
overshadowed and smothered by 1t.
The check to growth OF ragweed'
which is at this season nearly ready
to flower, is much greater than 1t is
to the clover, (which is not so far adj
Vanced. AS consequence the clover
g'owth quickly smothers the ragweed
So that it is scarcely able to blossom
again. This is not the best OF this
method. The stimulation to the SOIL
by cutting off the tops OF ragweed
and an occasional clover leaf Will
make SO large growth of clover that
month later it will probably also
need to be cut to keep the clover
from blossoming and seeding, as
spring sown clover will sometimes dc
the same year it is sown, says
American Cultivator, authority tol
the foregoing.
