the state are in excellent condition,
and are efficiently managed.
The aggregate increase of the coal
production of the state is 100000 more
in 1897 than in 1896. 1t is reasonable
to expect the tonnage for 1898 will ex-
coed 100000 tons. The coal mined
was 2,613,13 tons, not counting about
so 600 tons mined in places not COM
ing under the inspectors jurisdiction.

A fight that occurred in a Missoula
saloon on Tuesday afternoon is de-
scribed as a Jim dandy. 1t started out
as a matched event between an I'M
known champion and one of the best
| ScrapperS among the lumber-jack but
soon developed in a free-fOr-all, in
which the unknown found himself pit
ted against the field. AS long as he
had one man to combat, he made a
good showing. but he had decidedly the
worst of it when the gang jumped on
him. There was one of the lumber
jacks. a Frenchman, who considered
himself something of a he-cat, and ne
proceeded to try conclusions with the
new arrival. The strangers assertion
was evidently we'll founded, for ne had
no trouble in doing up the lumber-jack
champion, and would soon have had
him at rest, had not the crowd jumped
in. Then the "he-cat" was in trouble.
| The fight was a desperate one, and ne
stood off the gang in good shape for a
| time; but the force of numbers over
whelmed him, and, before the officers
arrived to put a stop to the fracas, he
had lost a piece of his thumb, which
had, unfortunately, found its way into
the mouth of his late antagonist The
whole crowd was much the worse for
wear when the dust of battle cleared,

The Story of a storu-

Washington Post: The influence of
the infinitesimal is almost infinite. The
casual remark of a Washington MILL
ner started a discussion which attained
international proportions. think the
story of it is really worth telling. one
day early last summer happened in
at a milliner's shop on T street. I
don't remember how It came about, but
in the course of our conversation the
milliner told me that she had crossed
to Genoa on her last trip abroad on
the same steamer with Donna Elyira,
daughter of Don Carlos of Bourbon
who had been taking a sea voyage for
her health. / remarked on Donna Ell
vira's subsequent elopement and disap-
pearance and wondered where she
might be.
Why said the milliner, "she was
here in Washington q fortnight ago. I
recognized her. She came into this
shop
Now. inasmuch as the Princess kins-
men had declared their ignorance of
her whereabouts the. milliner's story
was something the public ought TO
know about l told you about it, if you
remember. The story travelled to Paris
via New York Donna Elvira was en-
plOyed IN SnOp, a mllltneE SHOP IN
New York, and was in direst poverty.
1t travelled to Rome, to London, to
Vienna, to Madrid, and denials began
to travel westward. European letters
branded the tale as absurd. A Venezu-
Ella periodical explained why it couldn't
be true, and story and refutation used
up gallons of printers ink. Convinced
that the milliner had been mistaken.
1 went to see her the other day and
taxed her with the matter. She merely
laughed. Didn't it make good story2'
she asked.
1T did" I said, "but was it true? Did
you really see Donna E,lvira in Wash
ington?"
The milliner Laughter -again.
No, ] didn't" she said. Il just said
so; but it was a good story, wasn't
it?''
never did have any confidence in
milliners, anyway.

RECIPROCITY TREATIES.
Great Britain Will Take Lead Under
Dingley Law.

Washington, Jan. 6.-There is reason
to believe that Great Britain will take
the Lead of other nations in the nego-
tiation of reciprocity treaties under the
Dingley law. While other nations were
lodging complaints against the terms
of the act and of the very limited adj
vantages offered by the reciprocity
clauses. the British embassy here has
been at work quietly carrying on ne
gotiations for a series of treaties ex-
tending the benefits of so much reci-
procity as may be obtained under the
act OF the British possessions in the
West Indies. Sir Julian Pauncefote has
been at the state department several
times recently. Matters are advancing
to point where it is expected the
British colonies will be called into the
consultation prior to signing an agree
ment, as is customary when British
colonies are concerned.
1t IS said that the old reciprocity
treaties. which were set aside by the
Wilson act. will serve the purpose as
the basis for the new arrangements.
