Here is your fare, conductor; you

His remark was made as he was max
ing his way toward the rear platform
of a trolley car to get off, after having
ridden ten or twelve squares, and he
accompanied it by handing over to the
conductor nickel. That fellow
thinks he is entitled to a gold medal
for honesty" growled the conductor. as
he pocketed the coin; but he ought
to have a leather medal for burned
foolishness instead" "How's that?"

conductors words were evidently ad

AROUND SHERIDAN.

Sheridan Chinook: Messrs. Gordon and
Woolsey went through Sheridan Sunday
en- route to Quartz hill, where they have
a very promising prospect. They intend
doing some development work before re-
turning.
Max Meyers has been engaged to run
so or 60 tons of Sunbeam ore through the
arastra near the mine.
Messrs. Black, Berry and Norton LETT
Monday morning or the Liberty mine, on
Sand creek, to resume operations. They
recently made a shipment of ore from the
mine which netted them a handsome sum.
The ore is full of coarse gold.
Tom Gibbons and Ed Reed (deceased)
made a shipment of ore recently amount
ing to about 20 tons. This ore was shipped
to Butte and netted them in the neigh
borhood Of $4, 900, or about 800 per ton.
Some very fine galena ore was recently
brought to this office for assay. 1t is just
such ore as is needed at the Twin Bridges
Smelter, n the party who brought it
said he had "a whole lot of it in sight"
If he has his fortune is assured. This
galena will run at least 20 per cent lead,
besides some gold and silver.
DR.. Fletcher, who is building a cyanide
plant on the Emma b., on Upper Mill
creek, is reported to be progressing finely
with the plant. and will probably have
the stamps dropping within the next
month. Upon the success or failure of
the mill will depend largely the future
development of the gold mines of that
section that are of too low a grade to ad-
nit of being shipped out of the hills.
Prospecting outfits are passing through
Sheridan daily, and it may be stated with
certainty hat there will be more true
mining and development work done here
abOuts this season than ever before. With
the present advantage of a custom smelt-
err so near at hand as Twin Bridges, and
the fact that they are prepared to buy all
ores offered, even very smll lots, the in
centive to the struggling ~prospector is
greater than 1t has ever been. and we feel
confident that the extra endeavor of the
unusually large number of men now
securing the hills adjacent to the Ruby
and Madison valleys will not fail to result
in establishing the fact that this ountry
is susceptible Of being developed into one
of the greatest mining regions of Mon
tana.
Matt w. Alderson, the expert cyanide
man of Silver Star, was in town the fore

past four or five years all kinds of hard
luck, and although he has received many
blows, such as would have for
ever put to sleep the ambition of a man
OF ordinary staying qualities, adversely
has but brought out the persistent quail
ties of Mr.. Anderson, which have eventu-
any demonstrated that he is a winner
from away back. Such men as these, of
a mental caliber and vital stamina
amounting to genius, are the ones who
make success possible where failure alone
seems written upon the face of a propo-
sition.

ELECTRIFIED BUTTE.
LIGHTNING PLAYED FRANKS
ABOUT TOWN LAST NIGHT.

An electric storm that double discount
ed anything seen in Arizona, the home Of
electrical disturbances, visited Butte
about II o'clock last night. From the
standpoint Of magnificence the display
relegated Butte's $4,000 Fourth of July
display a long way to the rear, and was
probably the most brilliant combat of the
elements ever occurring in this section.
The local damage was confin ed prin-
cipally to the wiring Of the telephone and
electric light companies. Wires We're cut
in some instances and the electric current
shut off in consequence. A live wire was
cut on WASHINGTON street and was not
discovered until this morning when a
horse hitched to a delivery wagon stepped
on it and was instantly killed.
Between Butte and Helena the storm
was quite general and the tall telephone
line was S o badly damaged as to cut off
communication, by telephone with the
capital. The same condition exists be-
tween Butte and Deer Lodge. Linemen
have been sent out to repair the damage
and the lines will be in working order by
this evening.
An excursion car loaded with people re-
turning from Columbia gardens, was
caught at the corner of Front and Utah
street when the current was cut off, and
had to remain there until the damage
was repaired and the storm over.

MINESAND MINING,

In the value of standard copper during

policy of the American Amalgamated Cop
per company to maintain values at about
their present level, any recession in the
market being met by purchases of for
ward copper. while sales for early deliv-
cry are made when the demand warrants
1t. production is also apparently being
regulated, as although the supplies from
Arizona n the smaller United States
mines have increased considerably, the
total American increase is but small
compared with the same period last year.

PREHISTORIC MAN.

Deep researches as to the structure Of
the human body have recently furnished
some startling facts regarding changes
which man is at present undergoing
physically.
1t is believed that man was formerly
ndowed with more teeth than he nos
sesseS noW. Abundant evidence exists
that, ages and ages ago, human teeth
were used as eapon of defense. Un;n-
~tentlonally, traces of such use are often
revealed by a sneer. The teeth are some
times barred, dog-like, ready, as it were,
for action.
The practice of eating our food cooked
ana the disuse of teeth as weapons are
said to be responsible for the degenration
mat is going on. The wisdom teeth, in
fact. are disappearing. Human jaws.
found IN reputed Palaealitic deposits,
nave wisdom teeth with crowns as large
lars.
IN ancient times a short-sighted soldier
or hunter was almost an mpossibility:
today a whole nation is afflicted with de-
tectlve vision. 1t is almost certain that
man once possessed a third eye, by
means of which he was enabled to see
above his head. The human eyes form
erly regarded the world from the two
sides of the head. They are even now
gradually shifting to a more Orwar
position.
In the dim past the ear-fap was of
great service in ascertaining the direc-
tlon or sounds. and operated largely in
the play of the features. But the muscles
or the ear have fallen into disuse, for
the fear or surprise by enemies no longer
exist.
Again, our sense Of smell is markedly
inferior to that of savages. That it is
still decreasing is evidenced by observa-
tlons OF the olfactory organ. But the
nose still indicates a tendency to be-
come more prominent.

MIRROR in SOMALILAND.

Mrs. Ala Gardner, the English author
ess, on one of her big game shooting ex-
petitions in Somaliland. gave a native
woman a looking glass. She was so de-
lighted with the first clear sight of her
dusky c~ountenance that she sat through
two entire days and nights outside Mrs.
Gardeners tent gazing with rapture at her
reflection. On the morning Of the third
day the fame Of the looking glass had
spread through the country, and a row of
40 Samoli women, collected from far and
near, were engaged in taking an admir-
ing turn at the magic mirror. When Mrs.
Gardner came on the scene she was
greeted by 40 feminine Samoli' voices
Joined in chorus. and Zach begging for a
looking blass "all to herself" But, alas!
for the limitations of a sporting outfit.
the dusky bellies were obliged to content
themselves with the one communal mir
ror. And the woman with the looking
glass remained for many weeks the most
important person in Somaliland.
