He is an Assistant Engineer in the
Navy With the Rank Of Ensign-This
is the best Place that a Citizen can
Reach.

Henry NJ. Leps has been commits
stoned an assistant engineer in the
navy and is at present awaiting orders
to o to the front. He ranks as
lieutenant. This has been known to
several of his friends for some time
but Mr.. Leps is very reticent and
modest when he is questioned and the
great majority of our readers are still
uninformed about it.
On recent visit to Philadelphia
he took the examination for the posi-
tion and acquitted himself with great
credit. He passed the ordeal very
successfully and was at once given
the commission and told to hold him
self in readiness for orders which would
be sent him as soon as there was a
place for him.
Mr.. Leps is graduate of the me-
chanical department of the Univer-
sity and one of the best drilled men
who ever attended the University
His friends are glad to learn of his
success and predict that he will make
very brilliant record in tne navy.

The HeIpfy, World.

Give the young and struggling a
word of encouragement when you can.
You would not leave those plants in
your window boxes without water,
nor refuse to open the shutters that
the sunlight might fall upon them;
but you would have some human
flower to suffer from want of appreca-
tiOn or the sunlight of encourage
ment. There are few hardy souls
that can struggle along on stony soil
shrubs that can wait for the dews and
sunbeams, vines that can climb with
out kindly training: but only a few.
Utter the kind word when YOU can see
that it is deserved. The thought
that '.no one cares and no one knows
blights many bud of promise. Be
it the young artist at his easel, the
young preacher in his pulpit, the
workingman at his bench, the boy at
his mathematical problems. or your
little girl at the piano, give what you
can.

CAUGHT THEM IN THE ACT
Hausworth Showed a Gun Into
Foreman Lavelle's Face.
THEN THEY SKIPPED OUT
Word Comes That They Were Arrested
in Missoula Last Night and They
Will Be Brought Back on a
Charge of Burglary.

The police department was notified
last evening of the arrest at Missoula
of one Hausworth and Paul Gets two
young fellows who are wanted for at
tempting to commit a burglary at the
Anaconda company's precipitating
works in the eastern part of the city,
and for threatening to kill Foreman
Thomas Lavelle, who caught them in
the act of the attempted robbery
For long time pilfering has been
going on at the precipitating works,
and although no great amount of the
precipitates had been secured il was
evidently the intention of the thieves
TO make a haul, and Foreman Lavelle
determined to put a stop to the petty
thievery and possibly forestall what
might be a heavy loss. Accordingly he
set himself to watch. and put in a
good many fruitless hours before his
vigil was rewarded.
One night last week, however, he did
not watch in vain. He saw young
Gets enter the warehouse and. wait
ing until he was satisfied mischief was
intended, he attempted To secure the
intruder. A scuffie ensued, when
Hausworth suddenly appeared on the
scene, and showing a gun into the fore

he would blow his nayelle's) brains
out. Layelle was unarmed and was
compelled to release Gets.
The young desperadoes made their
escape and headed west Lavelle i'm

Detective Murphy took charge of the
case. He telegraphed to the Missoula
authorities to intercept the fugitives If
they came that way and went himself
TO Anaconda. Satisfying himself they
We're not there, he returned and await

received word that the men had been
arrested.

evening charging Gets and Hausworth
with burglary, warrants We're issued
and Sheriff Regain will leave this morn

Both of the youthful desperadoes are
about 10 years old and are supposed to
follow junk gathering for a living, but
the police claim the purported occupa-
ton is merely handy blind to cover
up their petty thievery.

MARY AND MAGGIE,
Two Little Girls From school in a Scay-
enger's Cabin.

A peculiar case engaged the attention
of the police yesterday and for a time
1t looked as though a grave crime had
been committed but it all ended in sus-
plcions and the person arousing them
was thrown into jail for disturb
ance.
Early in the afternoon Con Sullivan.
a miner living in O'Donnelrs row. in
West Galena street, complained to Off
Ger James Leyden that his 13-year-old
daughter, Maggie. and Mary Sheehan.
a girl II years old. who lives at 42l
West Mercury street. had spent the
previous night with Ed Leach, a scav-
enger, in his cabin in the rear of 333
South Arizona street. He feared the
children had been lured to the cabin
for immoral purposes and wanted the
matter investigated and Leach ar
rested. Sullivan said his girl had
stayed away from home the night be-
fore and he had gone out in the morn
ing TO look for her. He met her on
the street and she told him. when
asked where she spent the night that
she and the Sheehan girl had stayed in
Leach'S cabin.
The girl was taken to the city jail
and an officer detailed to look for her
companion. The county attorneys of
flee was also notified and search for
Leach began. The Sheehan girl was
found and also taken to the city Jail
Deputy County Attorney Stivers inves-
tigated the case. The Sullivan girl add
mitted staying all night in the cabin.
but the Sheehan child claimed to have
slept at home and to have gone to the
cabin in the morning. Both denied that
any attempt to assault them had been
made. Mr.. Stivers took the girls to DR..
Isabella Gliddon. who examined them
and stated that no assault had been
committed.
Al
police abandoned the search for Leach
and few minutes later the man who
made the complaint was brought to
the city jail and booked for disturb
ance. Officer Leyden found him i'm the
act of shamefully abusing his family
ana TOOK him in. Sullivan has been
arrested many times for a like Of
Tense.
