For Wallace, the center of this big
strteh of mining country. this activity
means much and the business men are
enjoying flush times. In all lines a
good trade is reported and the town is
in fine shape commercially. One pleas
ant feature about the era of prosperity
that 10 now at hand is the fact that
Wallace and Missoula are getting
closer together commercially and the
business relations between the two
towns are operating for their mutual
benefit. If the year just beginning full
fills its promise, IL should result in much
benefit to Missoula as we'll as to Wal

"The Night Before Christmas"

The author of the famous poem that
recounts in such graphic language
The Visit of ST. Nicholas was born
in the city of New York, July 10, 1119.
His boyhood was passed at the country
seat of his father, called Chelsea, then
far remote from the city, but now
very thickly settled portion of it, and
embracing large tract in the vicinity
of Ninth avenue and Twenty-third
street.
In the intervals between the time de-
voted to more serious studies his prin-
cipal amusement was writing short
poems for the amusement of his chill
dren, and among them was THE Visit
of ST. Nicholas which was written
for them as a Christmas gift about
1910. The idea. he states, was derived
from an ancient legend, which was re-
lated to him by an old Dutchman who
lived near his fathers home, and told
him the story when a boy.
In those days every young lady was
supposed to have an album and a
relative who was visiting the family
quickly transferred the verses to hers.
They were first published, much to the
surprise Of the author, in a newspaper
printed in Troy. They attracted i'm
mediate attention, and were copied and
recopied in newspapers and period
icals all over the country An illus
trated edition, in book form, was pub
lished about 1850 and since then school
readers have made them familiar to

The Largest Wedding.

On the day that Alexander the Great
was married no fewer than 20, 0,202 per-
sons in one ceremony We're made hus-
bands and wives. This seems impos-
sible, but the event really took place,
as historical records tell US. This mon
ster wedding occurred upon the con-
quest by Alexander the Great of Persia
which was then ruled over by King
Darius.
Alexander married Statira, the
daughter of the conquered King. and
decreed that 100 of his chief officers
should be united to 100 ladies from the
noblest Persian and Medean families
In addition to this. he stipulated that
10, 900 Of his Greek soldiers should mar
ry 10000 Asiatic women.
When everything was settled a vast
pavilion was erected, the pillars of
which were GO feet high One hundred
gorgeous chambers adjoined this for
the 100 noble bridegrooms, while for
the remaining 10000 an outer court was
inclosed, outside Of which tables We're
spread for the multitude. Each pair
had seats. and ranged themselves in
semi round the royal throne Of
course, the priests could not marry this
vast number Of couples, so Alexander
the Great devised a very simple cere-
mony. He gave his hand to Statira
and kissed her-an example that all the
bridegrooms followed
Thus ended the ceremony, and that
vast number We're married. Then fol-
lowed the festival, which lasted five
days, the grandeur of which has never
been equaled ever since.

Eastern opponents of the open door
policy for the Philippines base their
contention on the statement that the
islands are so much more distant from
the Atlantic seaboard than European
trade centers as to put us out of the
competitive possibilities. But would It
not be just as we'll for our friends on
the Atlantic side to recall to their OBJ
scured memories that this nation has a
Pacific Coast, and that not all the
commercial virtue of the country is
vested in Atlantic trade centers? Over
on these shores we dare entertain the
belief that the Pacific Coast is still in
the Union, and that not ali the United
States is embraced within the munich
The evident intention of Democratic
leaders to refuse to bend to the wishes
Of small fry politicians and oppose the
ratification Of the peace treaty, is be-
coming just now a force which gives
fair promise of accomplishing the rat

Of craftsmanship among political lead
ers than has been credited to them, as

ing very weak, and he who attempts

W. S. Mellick, editor Of the Pasadena
News" was a member of the last Leg

in the State which did the Legislature

Lieutenant Hobson is now en- route to
this coast to sail for Manila, and there
undertake the raising of the sunken
Spanish flotilla. BY wire he is re-
ported as strong In the belief that the
task can be accomplished and that
such of the ships as were not burned
may be again fioated. Two of them it
is known were badly damaged by fire,
the others are lying not in deep but in
rather shallow waters. There is no
heavy sea in Manila Bay, and at Cavite
there are appliances sufficient for the
task Of lifting the vessels out of the
mud. If Hobson succeeds in floating
the sunken feet, it will add at least
six serviceable ships to our navy Just
where they are most needed. There
is a ffotilla of small boats also, which
are particularly useful in ascending
rivers and shallow bays. which, if they
can be restored to use, will prove of
highest efficiency in the Philippines. All
these it is probable Hobson can save.
Admiral Dewey has already raised and
put into commission two of them. and
one rather large old style cruiser also.
The outlook is, therefore, that within
the next three months quite respecta-
BILE addition to our Asiatic fleet will be
made.

NEW RECORDING DEVICES.

On the 18th inst the House of Rep
resentatives passed the Senate bill
authorizing the Register of the Dis
trict Of Columbia to purchase and use
typewriting machines, made to write
upon the pages of bound volumes, for
the purpose of transcribing documents
for record. The passage of the bill
brought on a spirited debate, that
adduced considerable information.
First it was objected that the ink on
the machine ribbons is not permanent
in color To this it was replied, with
proofs, that the Government chemist
had analyZed the inks used and found
that they are permanent in character.
Then it was objected that an old law
provided that records shall be made in
a strong, legible hand with pen and
ink. To this it was replied that the
new law would work a modification of
the old one.
Again it was objected that the thing
is experimental. But it was shown
that in Pennsylvania the method has
been in use some time with perfect
success; that it is in use by CONNER
cial bodies in New York; finally a
numerously signed endorsement of the
new system was handed up and this
included the signatures Of title secur-.
ity companies, who, it was added,
could be counted upon to endorse no
record work that would be likely to
fade or produce an insecure record.
Then the objection was raised that
there was nothing in the bill to secure
guarantee that only indestructible
non-fading ink should be used in the
machines. To this it was replied that
neither is there in the present law any
provision that the pen-ink used shall
be indellible. Finally the bill was
passed and hereafter in the Registers
office at Washington, records will be
made in typewriter form. Such records
are more readily made, are more leg
ible and are easily read by anyone who
can read print, While in the past a good
deal Of official penmanship has been
obscure.
1t is not unlikely, now that the Fed
eral Government has thus endorsed
the new method of recording, that it
will presently come into general use
throughout the country. 1T cannot be
said that the measure booms a partic-
ular kind of machine since there are
a dozen kinds of these machine-rec
orders, and more are monthly making
their appearance. Like the other
typewriter business it cannot become
a monopoly, because there are so very
many kinds of typewriting machines,
and their number is constantly aug
menting. Certainly official records in
print are infinitely preferable to those
in pen-writing, the reasons are too OBJ
vious to need recapitulation, but clear
ness, speed, ease in serching records,
and earlier return of original docu-
ments are the chief.

New York Woman Saves Her Hus-

Albany. May IA woman's presence
of mind and quick, determined action in
the face of peril saved her husband from
death, at the Corning farm on the river
road below Kenwood yesterday.
A prize, bull. one of the finest of the
King Coffee VI, animal of excellent
blood but untamed qualities, came near
causing its keepers death.
James Kievet, who has charge of the
Corning stock, has only held his position
a few days, and therefore was not well
acquainted with the .peculiarities Of the
animals Yesterday he took King Coffee
vi: out for exercise. The bull had a ring
a pole to lead him. After giving the ami
barnyard, Keeper Kievet returned it to
its stall and incautously removed the
stick before he had chained the bull As
soon as the stick was removed the bull
reared and made a plunge for Kievet.
landing his forefeet him so as to throw
him to the floor of the stall. The animal
then gored the man as he lay on the floor,
infiicting several gashes in the groin.
Mrs. Kievet happened to be in the barn
yard and, hearing. her husbands screams,
rushed into the barn seized a pitchfork
and began furiously to prod the bull. The
brave woman finally drove the animal in
to a corner She then seized her husband
and dragged him from the barn. Just
then another farm hand came upon the
scene. He locked the door of the barn
and then carried the injured man to the
farmhouse, where he was attended by Dr.
Edward Cox. The victim suffers great
pain, but his wounds are not considered
fatal.

ED HOCH'S BAD TASTE.
As Shown in His Reference to Physi-
cal Qualifications of Candidates.

Emporia, May 12.-Everyone has
heard Of the mistakes of Moses" In
connection with the late Republican
congressional convention, Marion county
will long have cause to regret the mis-
takes of Ed Hoch'' who made the nomi-
mating speech for J. S. Dean.
This mistake may or may not have
been intentional but it caused the iron
to enter the souI' of Miller's Morris
county friends and to burn deep and
fiercely.
Mr.. Hoch continually referred in his
nominating speech to the strong physi-
cal individuality of Marion county's
candidate as well as his mental abi1-
ity.
Every candidate before the conven-
ton, save J. NJ. Miller, was a physically
large robust man. Miller is frail and
slight of stature but mentally, bright
as a dollar.
At the conclusion of Hoch's speech,
Henderson Richie arose to nominate
Miller 1t was quickly done and then
he paid his respects to Marion county.
1t was the slumbering lion of the old
senatorial and local judicial fights
arousing from a temporary truce be-
tween the two counties but which was
quickly broken. Few cheers were no.
ted among the Marion delegation when
Miller was nominated and Deans
speech was brief and unenthusiastic.
It was perhaps the only real jar" of
the convention.

TO HOLD PHILIPPINES.
Cincinnati Business Mems Memorial
to Congress.

Cincinnati, May 1.-THE manufac-
turers of Cincinnati have placed them
selves on record regarding the future
policy of the United States in the mat
ter of building up the navy and the
merchant marine, and acquiring foreign
possessions as a basis of support for
such development. Resolutions were
adopted favOring a vigorous policy in
this direction by the general govern
ment, and declaring that the time had
passed when the confines of this coun-
try were sufficient for the sale of man
ufactured wares.
The matter came up in the form of
resolution introduced by H. c. Yeiser
at the regular monthly meeting of the
Manufacturers club at the Queen City
club last evening, and provoked no lit
tie discussion of a highly patriotic ma
I ture. Mr.. Yeiser read his resolutions
and, in moving their adoption, spoke at
length in their support. The resoIu-
lions are as follows:
Whereas, condition of war with
Spain exists, growing out of the convic-
ton of the people of the United States
that it is a duty which they owe to
civilization to stop the Spanish cruelty
in Cuba and Puerto Rico; and
Whereas, A better knowledge of the
Spanish colonial policy proves that
similar cruelty has long been practised
in the Philippine islands; therefore be
it
Resolved, That the Manufacturers
club appeals to the general government
to bring to close in Puerto Rico and
the Philippine islands, as we'll as in
Cuba, the misrule of centuries, and, in
order to accomplish this end, to change
the policy of our fathers of a century
ago by the building up of a navy and
merchant marine, and the proper ac-
QUESTION of naval outposts, to support
out standing among nations, and ex-
pand our manufacturing interests
which necessitate new markets. Be it
further
Resolved, That it is the sentiment of
this club that it should be the policy
of the United States to hold permanent
ly all possessions of Spain which may
become ours by the fortunes of war
