CAST-OFF BABY CARRIAGES
some Odd Uses to which Ia Dis
carded Perambulators
Are Put.

When the baby grows up or the per-
ambulator becomes too shabby for
further exhibition in public, it does
not follow, by any means, that the lat
ter's period of usefulness is ended. In
fact, it has just graduated from one
season of utility into another, as may
be ascertained of the secondhand fur
niture dealers on the east side. says
the New York Herald.
These merchants deal heavily in
cast-off 'baby buggies," as they term
them, and from offering conveyance
to infants the vehicles pass on to EN-
ployments at once multifarious and
curiously inappropriate. The italian
itinerant musicians purchase them to
trundle their small barrel organs
about the city; the Greek flower sellers
stock them with their fragrant wares
and push them in every direction;
washerwomen, too, are good custom
ers and use the versatile rerambula-
tor as a means of conveying bundles
of linen to and from their customers
homes.
But the list would not be complete
unless the rowing candy merchants
were included. These vendors are COW
ering long stretches of city territory
every day. wheeling before them Sec
ond-hand perambulators on which
rest tiny showcases filed with confec-
tionery. So, toe, the "nice-a-banan"
men are. in instances. discarding the
heavy pushcarts for the light and cas-
lily moved baby carriage. which in time
bids fair to supplant all vehicles of the
hand power variety now in general
service.
A Trick of the Road.
1t is related of Sergt. Anthony. re-
Gently of the battleship Maine. that
with all his fearlessness he had a keen
sense of humor and never lost an OPP
portunity to take advantage of the sit
uation as he found it. He was en-
gagged at one time doing some heavy
hauling over a bad road in the night.
The road was all but impossible. and
his team got stuck in the mud. After
several Intellectual attempts to pull
out he put up his lines, crawled back
into his wagon, slowed himself away
and went to sleep, knowing that no
one could pass until he was out of
the way. He had.just about got to sleep
when a train Of several wagons came
along the road behind him. They
found his team stuck fast. but no
driver. The driver had evidently gone
OF after help. 20 they unhitched their
own teams. climbed round his wagon.
hitched 10 it and pulled him out. Then
he crawled out from under cover,
took up his lines and went along.

STATE SCHOOL OF MINES
The Building Is How Practically
Completed.
LACKS A HEATING PLAN
There Are No Funds With Which tC
Equip and Open the School.
Must Await the Action of
the Legislature.

The Montana State School Of Mines.
which has been in course OF construc-
ton for the past three years, is now
practically completed. In fact the
building as IL now stands is completed
with h exception of installing the
heating plant, n this could be done
and the magnificent structure turned
over by the contractor complete with
in a week, if the work vas pushed.
The only reason this is not being done
Is the fact that the commissioners
have no n to equip and open the
school. and if turned over to them
they would be put to the expense OF
employing watchmen and would have
to pay all the insurance. This is why
they have not insisted upon the con-
tractors pushing the work and COM
plotting the building.
The last legislature appropriated the
sum of $1,000 for the equipment and
support of the school. This mount
will go but a small way towards the
equipment. allowing nothing for run
ming the school.
The board are now going to ex-
pend that money" said Secretary Gill
lie, "as far as IL will go. in preparing
to open the school, and we VIII then
have to await the action Of the legisla-
ture. In a number of states they have
a direct tax for the support of the
state school of mines. but we have to
have a special appropriation"
All the revenue from rentals is used
towards paying the interest on the
outstanding warrants, which aggregate
sos, 900. OF the total grant of 100, O0o
acres, the board have selected, to date,
75.777.03 acres. The total income for

IENNIS TOURNAMENT.
There Was Some Fast Playing in the
Championship Form.


The matches yesterday in the tennis
and there was some very fast playing
in championship form. The day was
perfect for work at the net, and there
was a large attendance. The match of
the day was Hillman and Bryce against
Leggat and Wiseman in finals. 1t was
a very pretty contest and all played in
good form. Hillman and Bryce won by
the fine network of Hillman and the
back court play OF Bryce. In singles
the match between Leggat n Barker
was the most interesting. Leggat
showed some of his old-time form ana
fast play, but the lack of practice told
against hin.
The score: Doubles-Hillman and
Bryce beat Leggat and wiseman; 60,
6-3. Hillman and Bryce beat Matteson
and Bush; 6-2, Us, Us. Singles-Leg-
gat beat Wiseman; 6-1. SO. Barker
beat Leggat; ga, 90, 60. Bush beat
Mclaughlin; 60, 60.
The attractions for to-day will be a
match in singles between Bush and
Barker at IL a. m. The winner of this
match to meet Hillman at 3 p. M. to
decide the state championship. Mr..
Hillman won the championship from
George Bush at the last tournament,
and II is hoped by the local club hat
Barker or Bush will be able to wrest
II from him to-day. This will be a
holly contested match, and undoubted-
ly the best exhibition of tenni during
the tournament.
There was a meeting last night of the
State Tennis association, at which the
following officers were elected: l..
Wiseman, Butte. president; Clifford
Hillman, Helena, vice president: II. III.
Matteson, Great Falls, secretary and
treasurer. 1t was decided TO hold the
next tournament at Great Falls.

Continent.
He used to spread his reference mans

much needed, he spoke to his assistant
