WORLn.MInE PEACE.

While we are endeavoring to subdue
the rebellious Filipinos the Gear of Rus
sia Is energetically going ahead with his
plans for universal peace. He has pre-
pared ten points which he will submit to
the coming peace conference at st.
Petersburg. Summarized they are:
/. No increase OF military or naval arma-
ment to take place for specified time, nor
an increase Of the budget for such pur-
poses.
2. Plans for the actual decrease Of exist
ing armament 10 be discussed.
3. New arms and military engines, more
effective than those In use at present to be
prohibited.
4. The use Of destructive explosives to be
limited. no balloons or similar inventions to
be employed In throwing explosives.
s. The use of submarine vessels or tor
pedO-boats to be prohibited
G. No more vessels to be built for ram
ming.
q The Convention OF Geneva to be APP
piled In maritime warfare as well as on
land.
s. Vessels used to save life after battle
at sea to be declared neutral.
g. The stipulatiOns Of the Brussels Con-
ference to be revised In accordance with
modern tactics

FLEE1NG FROM OPPRESSION.

When the Doukhoubors came to this
continent to escape Russian oppression
our Canadian brethren plumed them
selves on the fact that the immigrants
did not go to the "land Of lynch law,
trusts and prejudice against aliens, but
went to freer country.
It seems, however, that there are some
prejudices to be found even among Cana
dians. The DoukhOubors are peaceable
people who attend to their own business
faithfully, pay their taxes regularly and
keep all their family quarrels out Of
court. But they are greatly given to
maintaining their own customs and re-
tanning their own language and religion.
This seemingly has not pleased all the
people in Canada, for already suggestions
have been made that the clamps of the
law be put on the new settlers in order
to make them worship God and conduct
their marriages and funerals according
to Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist or
some other enlightened custom. The
DOukhoubors must have Christian and
enlightened civilization If they have to
be put In Jail to get it.
Commenting on this, Professor Cold
win Smith, the eminent Canadian, says
that "as the world Is now going, the
DoukhOubors will have to fly beyond the
bounds Of creation II they wish to get
entirely rid of war" 1t Is not prejudice
against the appearance Of these refugees
which has melted this feeling against
them; 1t Is something which existed in
Canada before they got there, for the
st. John Sun, which at first opposed their
coming, made the following comment
when they landed:
The faces Of both sexes, old and young are
intelligent and keen No fault can possibly
be found with their habits, They are godly
people, and live up to the rule that cleanil-
ness Is next to godliness The condition of
the Huron when she reached this side of the
Atlantic, after voyage of over 5000
miles, with q passenger list OF 2,0OO who
had lived on board about q month, was all
the reply that was necessary for the refu-
tation OF the charge that these people were
not a desirable lot of settlers. The ships
deck was clean enough to eat meal from.
When the authorities at Halifax boarded
the steamer their first remark was, why,
how clean the ship isv 1t was the same In
81. John, and the remark about the ship
can truthfully be applied to the people who
came out on her.

Captain Seaton struck the solution of the
trust problem in the movement he has
successfully carried through the legis-
lature for the establishment of a binding

This twine plant has become exceed

the farmers Of the State from the extor-
tions Of the binding twine trust. The
State alone can step in and stop the OPP
preston Of the trusts, but the mere pass
ing Of antitrust laws will not avail while
the machinery which enables the trusts
to overthrow laws is still left in their
hands. But by taking the trusts ac-

AN OLD LANDMARK.

1t Will Be Transformed Into n Modern
Residence Dwelling.
One of the oldest landmarks in Butte
is being transformed into a dwelling of
modern architectural design. j. Benton
Leggat is having a story added to his
house al the northwest corner of Wash
ington and Granite. and when finished
it will be one of the handsomest cot
tages in the city. The addition re-
moves almost every trace Of the erst-
while elegance of the building, which
was built by William Jack about 90
years ago. Then it was the most pre-
tentious dwelling in this city. It's design
was fully up to date, and the Mansard
roof was the envy of all the old-time
friends of BILLY" Jack. 1t was the
first roof Of the kind in the city. 1t
stood alone out there on the promon-
tory and the nearest approach to it in
the way of elegance was p. A. Largey's
one-story brick, which has since given
way to q more roomy and elegant
building. Now 1t Is the center Of the
residence part Of the city.

MADE A RASH MISTAKE
Experiment In Medicine May
Cause Death.
HE TOOK A LARGE DOSE
immediately Sank into a State OF Coma
and Would Have Died Had Not
a Physician Been
Called.

William Wyman, a barber who has been
until recently employed at Mead's shop
on West Park street, lies unconscious at
the Sisters hospital and may not recover.
as the result of an experiment he made
at taking medicine not prescribed for him.
Wyman is afflicted with consumption
and of late had developed tubercular men
ingitis, and was pretty sick man. He
was confined to his room at 243 South
Main street and had room mate whi
was suffering with asthma. The friend
had some medicine, the constituent parts
of which were arsenic iodide of potash
and belladonna He also had some fluid
extract of grindela. The friend obtained
so much relief from these medicines that
Wyman conceived the idea they ought to
help him when he was attacked by the
severe coughing spells he was subject to.
Acting upon the idea, Wyman took a
small dose of the compound and got so
much relief that he concluded a larger
dose would do him a great deal of good.
He accordingly took a large dose, and 4
short time afterwards concluded to take
some more. A friend had called to see
him, and he requested this person to hand
him the medicine. Internationally the
friend handed Wyman the grindela, and
he swallowed a large dose. The effect of
the two medicines was that Wyman sank
at once into an hypnotic state.
This occurred on Thursday and Wyman
remained in the unconscious condition til
yesterday, which caused his friends to
become alarmed, and they called DIR. Slew
ers who found the man paralyzed and in
q state Of coma in which he would un-
cd paI
had not physician been called DR.. Siev-
ers pumped the man out and had him
sent to the Sisters hospital. Last evening
the paralysis had left, but he was still
unconscious and it is uncertain what the
outcome of the case will be.

ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
Have Taken Steps for the Observance of
Christmas

nNSS AhheH otepS lof SHe opsEISaASo VI
Christmas.
The first step preparatory to the abserv-
ance of Christmas was taken by the As
sociated Charities at the regular month
ly meeting which was held Thursday 1t
was decided to observe Christmas as was
done last year, by giving a Christmas
tree for all the poor children and by in
viting those who feel charitably inclined
to provide a Christmas dinner for at least
one poor family. This plan brought such
satisfactory results last year that it was
decided to repeat 1t. Any who feel able
to provide a dinner for a poor family will
be furnished with the name of a worthy
family by applying either by letter or in
person to the association. 1t was further
decided to send to every poor family
whose name appears on the books of the
association a load of coal before Christ
mas arrives.
The reports of officers was an interest
ing feature of the meeting. The secre-
tary's report showed that during the
month of November four and one-half
tons of coal were distributed; 13 families
furnished with provisions: employment
found for five persons; stove furnished
one family; clothing furnished 29 per-
sons.
The secretarys report also showed that
gratifying progress Is being made in the
sewing school. The school. which meets
every Saturday afternoon, has a member
ship of so chiloren and an average attend
anee of 27. Each girl has made at least
one garment and from that to three, and
the garments, when finished, are the
property of the maker.
The treasurer's report shows the
months receipts to have been s263 60 and
the expenditures to have been $4S1S5.
A special meeting of the association is
to be held newt Thursday, at which it is
desired that there shall be full attend
ance Of members.

TWO MORE CASES.
One of the Victims Found in a Deplora-
BILE Plight.

Ole HllEnt.
1t begins to look as though the small
pox plague Is u long way from being
eradicated. Nearly every day for the
past week from one Ito three new cases
have been reported, and yesterday DR..
Monroe discovered two more. One of
the victims is Mrs. Stella Lucas, who
was found in a most deplorable plight.
She was found living alone in d,lapi-
dated shack at 11l2 South Arizona
street, and in terribly destitute circum-
stances. AS it is impossible to get any
one to nurse her where she is, DR..
Monroe made her as comfortable as he
could last night and to-day will send
her to the pest house.
The second case discovered yester-
day was that of Joseph v. Lindsay, q
worklngman, who occupied a room at
the Monopole lodging house in Copper
street His case is a modified one, and
as he has associated with the other oc-
cupants of the house till his case is
fully developed, he will probably be
allowed to remain where he is and the
whole house will be quarantined.
