Everyone wants to make money There
is no denying this fact Then see or write
to an expert who has spent twenty
years studying speculations and invest
ments. A broker who advertised two
years ago to buy Manhattan around 70
and pay for it, and put it away In SAFE
and that it would pay the investor SIX
per cent on his money and certain
profit of $25 per share on his holdings
besides. Also he advised to buy Lake
Shore around $145 per share; also
wheat around SIS cents. Manhattan is
now selling at SILT per share, or S42
per share advance, and Lake Shore $l94
per share, or $40 per share advance, and
wheat 81 per bushel, or so cents per
bushel advance.
These are cold uncontradictable facts
that appeared in public print and IN
market letters. The same man now adj
vses to buy cotton under six cents, corn
under thirty cents, and Louisville and
Nashville railroad stock under $50 per
share. Every share that is bought and
paid for and laid away in safe will be
worth good many dollars more inside
of one year. Cotton will show $1,000
profit on 100 bales bought now, and
Louisville & Nashville will be a tour per
cent dividend paying stock within one
year and will be selling at $50 per share.
Corn will be selling at 40 cents before
July next. Write to E. E. Knott, stock

Crowds Thronged to Hear Miss
Booth at the Auditorium.
GAVE THREE ADDRESSES
The Afternoon Session Devoted to the
Klondike Expedition-An b ard
Eloquent Sermon Delivered at
the Evening Meeting.

TIL first of May was a red letter day
for Butte. not only in Salvation army
circles, but also in general. Miss Booth
WAS so delighted with her recent week
end spent at Butte when she was on
her way to Seattle to join her illus
hrious father, Gen. william Booth. that
kho decided, when making arrange
Snents for the Western tour of her klon-
dixie expedition. to spend the week
Ind once more in Butte. 1t was quite
Snvident by the crowds that thronged
10 hear her, the attention which was
so noticeable in all her meetings and
uhe lberality with which the crowds
responded to the appeals for collections
xhat she is held in high esteem by the
citizens of Butte.
ION Sunday. Zach service was proceed

cations I'm the open air. A brass band
mad been improvised for the occasion,
several of the klondike, party being
Rble to play Instruments, and so add
40 the attraction of the procession.
There was also a considerable sprink-
guitars, banjoes inc mandolins used in
hhe services in the Auditorium.
The text which Miss Booth chose for
her morning service was from the epis-
rle of St. John. IF we confess our
sins. He is faithful and just TO forgive
US our sins and to cleanse us from all
unrighteousness." She spoke at length
of the curse of sin. of the danger OF
covering over sin under the excuse that
there could not be a d~eliverance from
u in this life. With great force n
~clearness she stated how sin can be
forgiven and taken out of the heart.
and how IL is necessary that IL should
be so in order to make the life what
God intended IL TO be. An invitation
was given TO those who wished to con
secrate themselves entirely tn the work
of salvation. and some eight Or nine
people responded by kneeling at the
form provided for this purpose.
The afternoon meeting was devoted
TO the Klondike mission. Miss Booth
touchingly sang while her soldiers were
engaged in prayer at the beginning Of
n meeting. and Brigadier Howell. the
divisional officer. gave out the congre-
gational songs. Several of the mission
aries spoke. and others sang, to the
