nothing really extraordinary in the
educational work of the Sisters. 1t Is
a labor to which they voluntarily give
their lives. 1t Is their first, their chief
aim to be successful teachers. There Is
no home. no family. no social tie to d.
vert their attention. Their home Is the
convent. the school: their family the
children entrusted to their care; their
society the sisterhood of the order to
which they belong.
When as a body the Sisters meet to
discuss the work of the year just
closed and plan for new departures and
greater improvements for the years to
come, there are no diversions in the
way Of anticipated changes in life be-
cause their lives never change.
The Catholic people of Butte will
wish the Sisters who have labored so
zealously in this city and Walkerville
curing the past school year pleasant
stay in Helena during the summer
months and will be ready with a hearty
and sincere welcome when they return.

A BUTTE JUDGE.
The Subject of an Able Sermon by Rev.
Il. 0. Tilburn.

me subject of an Able Sermon by Rev.
f. o. TiIburn.
"A Butte Judge; or, Stones and Glass
Houses" was the subject of Rev. E. o.
Iliourns sermon in the Christian tab
ernacie last night. A good many people
VINO attended last night expected to
near something regarding the actions of
local judge of the court, but the SER
mon mad nothing to do with any par
ticuiar person; rather, the minister
pointed out that every man was Judge.
ne cautioned his hearers to be careful
In their Judgment of their fellow mems
acts. Let him who is without sin first
cast the stone" He also cautioned his
hearers not to throw stones, especially
If they lived in glass houses. There are
many glass houses. He pointed out the
direful results of tale bearing and of
talking too much. Then he told the
Biblical story of the Jews dragging the
sinful woman into the presence of
Christ, there to receive sentence Of pun
ishment and of the release of the wo-
man with the admonition go, and sin
no more" If you look at yourself as
the other person looks at you, your con-
science will tell you that the other man
Is not such a wicked person after all.
This led up to the thought of the men in
Butte who are railing and tearing their
port that there exists or has existed
infractions of laws in this city.
Were you ever tempted to commit
the sin you are accusing some one else
of committing" asked the preacher.
Did you ever desire the same thing
as that which you charge some one
else of doing? We who live in glass
houses presume to Judge the saloon
keeper or the gambler Were you ever
in their position? You simply condemn
the acts which, in your moments of
temptation, you are liable to commit.
You won't hear me rail over the COM
mission of sin, but | do condemn the
sin. The desire for money tempts a
man to do sinful acts. The world needs
more of charity and less of censure
Be just and do right, all of you. and
God will judge of your acts. He is the
judge. We do not know what tempta-
ton might compel us to do until We
submit to the test
The minister then read from the scrip
lures: For the Father judgeth no
man, but hath committed all Judgment
unto the Son.
But why dost thou judge thy
brother, or why dost thou set at naught
thy brother, for we shall all stand be-
fore the judgment seat of Christi

EN- ROUTE TO ALASKA
Willard Is Inspecting His Old
Road,
HIS VIEWS OF AFFAIRS
Time Is Not Far on When All the Trans-
continental Lines Will Be Under
One Management-Consoli-
dalton the Tendency.

Henry Willard. formerly president Of
an unofficial inspection of his old road
while passing over the line with his
family en- route to Alaska on a pleasure
trip In an interview at Minneapolis
few days ago Mr.. Willard, referring
to the prosperous condition of the road,
said:
The Northern Pacific property has
picked up wonderfully during the last
few years, quite beyond my expecIa-
tions in fact. The Improvements have
been extensive, particularly in the re-
ducing of grades and Strengthening of
curves, all of which has resulted in the
saving of much money. People unfa-
miliar with the cost of railroad material
would be astonished to know how prices
have decreased duroing the past 25
years. When l had charge of the North
ern Pacific the rails cost $40 a ton laid.
To-day heavier and better rails than
they were can be bought and laid for
less than one-third of that sum. The
cost of other material, including locomo-
tives, coaches and freight cars, has also
decreased great deal.
What is true of the Northern Pacific
in the matter of development is true OF
other big systems. The past Is years
have witnessed great railroad develop
ment. This is mainly due, should say,
to the tendency towards consolidation
of railroad interests. So marked is this
tendency that think l am safe in pre-
dieting that in 80 years from now we
will see all the transcontinental lines to
the Pacific coast united under one man.
agement.'
Mr.. Willard said that the consolida-
ton of railroads under one management
was sure to prove a benefit to the people
owing to the constant improvements in
methods of rapid transit and the de-
crease in the cost of the material neces-
sary to effect these improvements.
Speaking of the financiering of rail-
roads Mr.. Willard said:
There was time, not so many years
ago either, when railroads were obliged
to pay or s per cent. for borrowed
money, and then their bonds often sold
for so cents, whereas to-day they are
not obliged to pay over Sla or per cent.
and in many instances the bonds sell
above par"
Mr.. Willard was asked what he
thought of the governments prospects
for realizing the entire amount of its
mortgage on Central Pacific.
THE government cannot fail to real
ize every cent of the Indebtedness of
the Central Pacific" answered Mr.. il
lard provision has already been made
for that. The governments mortgage

A BROKEN LEG.


While 1t Was Moving.
S. L. Goldberg, tailor at No. II East
Granite street, sustained a badly broken
leg yesterday. He and a party Of
friends were picnicking a few miles the
other side of the Nine Mile house. He
attempted to get into the wagon while
it was in motion. He missed his hold
and fell, the hind wheel passing over
his left leg below the knee. 1t was al
most a compound fracture. The large
bone was broken and the outside bone
was dislocated. He was placed in the
wagon and brought to the city. This
side of the Nine Mile house the party
met DR.. Bryant. who was riding out to
the resort on his bicycle. He was rec
ognized and asked to temporarily band
age the limb, which he did. The doc
tor returned with the party to the city
and dressed the broken limb Goldberg
was taken to his room in the Little Joe
block He will be laid up for some time.

Cooking in College,

Higher education for women at the
Kansas State agricultural college does
not follow precedent. Young women
are trained to be competent house,
keepers as we'll as readers OF Latin
and Greek. For many years the do
mestic science department has been
the prominent feature of the college
curriculum. In the last eighteen
months especial impetus has been Civ
EN- the work by the increased facilities.
The new domestic science hall has jus.
been completed. The rooms on the
first floor are given up to practical
demonstrations on cookery and lee
lures on hygiene. On the second floor
are the sewing rooms; in the basement
is lunch room we'll patronized by the
students.
The kitchen laboratory is a most at
tractive place. Round it's tables gath
er the daily classes of young women
and here the supposition that college
bred women cannot learn the feminine
arts is deposed. Each one Of the num-
her plays her part with deftness that
is the result Of the rigid mental disc!-
pllne Of a college course. The neces.
sity Of absolute exactitude is one oil
the advantageous things they have ali
learned. Slipshod methods find nc

II is said that McDutfie will shortly
gather together an outfit Of northern
pacemakers, take them to Jacksonville
and there attempt to lower any and
all marks made by Taylor and others
as we'll. He is said to be backed by
q rival firm to that which employs
Taylor, and that McDut!ie will use a
chainless wheel also, says Philadel-
phia paper. McDutfie Is now in Allan
ia with his trainer. Charles Culver,
who managed his pacing for him in
his seasons work In '98. He has race
on for Atlanta and will then go to
Jacksonville for another, after which
it is reported he will remain to 90 for
the records. A battle between Taylor
and McDuifie for the records at their
present stage and upon chainless
wheels would do much for that class OF
machines. There are at present but
the two patents which are in use by
the leading makers, and record bat
tie would do much to demonstrate the
value of the two as regards speed quail
iflcations. Taylor is amply backed to
carry on his battle all winter II need
be, and his employers are not those
who give up until the fight is won.

ENGLAND'S BIG BLUFF

From Chicago Inter Ocean: Count

there was no such movement 1t fol-

England would join in and prove the
loudest in denouncing us.
