wages were raised to end the trouble.
Then came the war with China and
a time of great prosperity for the few

over frcm Helena and a short session
of the referees court was held yesterday
afternoon. Tn case for the complain

The defense will then present its testii-
mony and the hearing will be concluded
in a few days.
The defendants were represented yes
terday only by John n. Kirk. the other
attorneys being engaged elsewhere.
Colonel Sanders offered in evidence the
deposition Of Frank Baldwin. one of the
defendants. which was taken at Seattle
a few weeks ago, and which was fully
published in the Standard at the time
II was filed In the United States court.
Mr.. Baldwin told all about the boycott,
the methods pursued and the part d!f-
ferent persons and labor unions took
in II.
Mr.. Kirk objected to the Introduction
of the deposition on the ground that
IL was immaterial as to all the defend
ants except Baldwin himself.

The Youth and the Pig.

There was an amusing incident on
High Service avenue North Provi-

chief actors were a we'll dressed young
man and a large pig. whose most recent
toilet had been made In a mud-puddle.

Of pigs i'm line. and who laughed herself
nearly into a 1T at the sight of the
natty young man and the pig when
the episode was at its height. There
was quite a drove Of pigs. and they
had all the usual insistence of pigs in
endeavoring to break away from the
herd and poke their noses into each
gateway or hole in the fence along the
road. Things had been a tribe dull

ments. when the well dressed man hove

AN EXCEPTION.

v Senator Vest has a favorite story which he has told on the occasion of many political speech, but, so far as known, never on the floor of the United States senate.
 "A temperance lecturer was strug- gling against odds in Kentucky" says the senator. "He* was talking to a not very large audience that had been drawn to the hall by curiosity. The effect of alcohol is to shorten life,' said the lecturer.
 "An old man at the rear of the hall rose at that juncture and said, You're a liar ".Why?' inquired the advocate of Adams ale.
 "'Because, sir, I've been drinking for seyenty-five years, and I'm 90 and am likely to live to be 100. I am strong enough to lick you if you'll step out side

AUGKOR-WAT MYSTERIOUS
 TEMPLE.

The great mystery about Indo- China, and one which must ever be insoluble, is the story of the lost race and the vanished civilization of that strange country. The mighty walls of Angkor- Wat, rising in the midst of sparsely poulated jungles, remain as the memorial of a great empire which has utterly disappeared and is alto- gether lost to history. No one will ever know whc planned this gigantic temple or what tyrant bounded on his my riads of people to build up those inn mense blocks of stone and cover them with the most elaborate of sculptures. Angkor- Wat is one of the most aston ishing monuments in the world, and this forgotten temple was built so as to endure as long as the earth itself, were it not for the irresistibly destructive effect of plant life on the strongest walls that man can raise. Only a high ly civilized and very wealthy people could have erected Angkor Wat-a very different race to the Annamite of modern days The whole nation has disappeared as utterly as the busy myriads who once poulated the wastes and solitudes of Memphis.-Singapore Free Press

THE ABILITy TO ENTERTA1N.

Abraham s. Hewitt, in recent ad- dress to the University Settlement So- ciety, stated that the present accumu- lation of local wealth is such as was never anticipated in the widest dreams of man. Being extremely wealthy him. self, MT. Hewitt ought to know what he is talking about. As a matter of fact, however, the wealth of local plutocrats, however enviable, is gen. teel poverty in comparison to the mag nificence that was. The wealth of MT. Hewitt combined with that of the As- tors, Vanderbilts, Goulds, Goelets and Rhinelanders is hundred times less than what Assurbanipal possessed, a thousand times less than what he dreamed of possessing. That is a long time ago. More recently Crassus de- clared that no man could be account ed rich who was unable to keep an army in his pay An army consisted of ten legions. A legion consisted of five thousand men. Caesar spent more money than the Astors have saved. He owed more than the Vanderbilts could conveniently scrape together. Caligula in the second year of his reign spent the equivalent of hundred mill lion dollars. In the third year he spent two hundred million. Had he not been eliminated he would have got away with billion. Prodigality of this kind however it may be viewed, is at least evidence of wealth accumulated in larger proportions than is common to- day. Perhaps, then, MT. Hewitt in speaking of the widest dreams of man meant modern man. In which case he IS quite right. Dumas did his best for Monte Cristo, and yet the amount the latter has received would to-day just about enable him to entertain. A penny less and he would be pinched. It is not alone wealth that has increased; i; values have, to such an extent even that between being very rich and starv- ing to death there is now not much more than the choice.-Edgar Saltus in Golfers Weekly.

A LETTER FROM AN INDIAN
 CHTEF

Nothing can be quainter than the language used by a half educated In- dian when he undertakes to communi- cate his thoughts in English. Captain w. H. Stickler of Dorge City, who has lived many years on the prairies of western Kansas, once entertained Chief American Horse, the famous Sioux, who was passing through Kan sas from Oklahoma to his reservation at Pine Ridge, $. D. They sat togeth- CT all night and talked of Indian af- fairs. and when they parted next day American Horse asked Captain Stick Ter to send him a letter. Years passed and the incident escaped from Captain Stickler's mind, but one day recently it came back to him and he wrote the promised letter to the old Sioux chief tain. Below is American Horses re- ply:
