when the Creator said to woman,
"In sorrow shalt thou bring forth
children" that a curse was pro-
nounccd against the human race,
but the JOY felt by every Mother
when she first presses to her heart
her babe, proves the contrary.
Danger and suffering Turk in

that she may reach the hour when
the hope Of her heart is to be real

niNERAL PROPOSITIONS
OF the BIackfeet-Whst q Prospector Says
About Them.
[Great Falls Tribune.l

[Great Falls Tribune.l
J.w. Akerley and son of Lewis
town are in the city on their way
home, having returned from spend.
ing a few weeks on the Blackfeet
mineral strip. Mr.. Akerley talked
yesterday to Tribune reporter
about as follows: "One thing yos
can say almost emphatically, the So
called mineral strip of the Blackfeet
reservation which has been thrown
open is no poor mans country. The
prospector would better keep away.
The strip was thrown open anyway
through the influence of those who
could make the most of it and their
stakes were cut last fall. 1 spent
two weeks at the lakes. They have
a good fair showing of copper on
what is called the Bull Head lead
which is on Rose creek, Boulder and
Swift Current. This lead runs
through the country for at least
twenty-five miles, cutting the FORM
alton; carrying copper, very little
gold and very little silver. They re-
port an assay showing Z per cent
copper. In my opinion anything
that has yet been discovered must
improve greatly with depth to have
any pertinent value. On Kennedy
creek northeast from Swift Current,
is the only place where they have
found placer gold and a small streak
of steel galena which is pretty good
looking ore. AS to the gold PROPOSE
tion one of the locators told me that
he could pan about 81 per day. or
course 1t is not possible to tell alto
gether what may be found on the
mineral strip; however, there is no
doubt at all but what SO far as any
thing that has already been dis
covered is concerned the country is
concerned the country ia overesti-
mated and has been terribly over
doomed.

California Bad Crop Reports steadied
the Wheat Decline.

Chicago. April IA continuance of the
weakness which became SO marked dur
ing yesterdays session marked the OPP
ening in wheat today July which closed
yesterday at S47s, ranging all the way
from S45s to S+12c. Nearly everything was
against the price at the start. The Mich
isan crop report was perhaps the most
important factor. That report gave the
wheat condition at So. the highest April
figure since 1891. Liverpool showed de-
cline of about SD and continental mar
kets were equally weak. The fear OF dam
age to winter wheat by frosts when mas
lowered over the market for several days
was enectually disslpated by the nlSher
temperatures now prevailing throughout
the west. About the only crumb of COM
fort the bulls were given were the ngures
on the northwest receipts, which showed a
considerable falling off. There was some
scattered buying at the start by local
shorts, and scaipers We're satisfied with
small profits but the majority of traders
were on the selling side. Liquidation by
scared longs was quite marked for time.
For nearly two hours the course OF the
market was steadily downward. varied
occasionally by small fractional rallies as
shots came into cover.
About II 80 o clock the bad crop reports
from California. which had been coming
IN al morning, began 10 have some eiiect
on the market. The condition there as
result of the cold and drcuth, was said
TO be very grave. some reports placing
the crop condition at not over 10 per cent.
ilt tlAtIt VI liltSt itPpllS was s'iiiCNNd
nullified by heavy rains in California dur
ing the past rs hours. but the decline was
stopped and an appearance of steadiness
given the market. July had previously
sold as low at S3i5, but il rallied to SS7s,
and. for the rest of the session, kept close
to that price. Trading became excessively
dull late in the session, and the pit at
times was not more than half filed. Al
though the local markets will be open to-
morrow the closing of the continental
markets over the Easter holidays had
tendency to narrow the trading here and
II finally degenerated into a more narrow
scalping trade. The close was steady at
1873 for July.
Corn was easy, influenced by wheat.
May closed PC lower.
Trade in oats was small. moderate Of
ferings being taken very slowly. May
