HOGAN MADE A HIT.
Black PATHS Troubadours Get Great
House at the Margaret.


Ernest Hogan seems to have a fee
simple to the regards of Anaconda
amusement seekers. Such a house as
greeted him at the Margaret last even
ing would have caused some of the pre-
tentious Thespians who have preceded

payne and oysters was about to succeed
the sinkers and coffee period. Every
seat in the theater was occupied and
scores of chairs We're placed in the
aisles to accommodate late corners. And
the gallery was a sight truly fit for the

M0NTAKA'S GREAT SHOW !.
This States Mineral Exhibit at
the Omaha Exposition.
A TYPICAL LUMP OF ORE
Piece of Mineral From the Never Sweat
Mine That Weighed 1000 Pounds.
Wire Gold From the
Monitor Nine

Marcus Benjamin, a writer of some
note, has written up the mineral OK
hibits of the different states at the re-
cent Omaha Mississippi exposi-
ton for the Engineering and Mining
Journal. Each state is taken separ-
ately. With reference to Montanas ex-
hibt, the following article appears:
Across the aisle was the section de-
voted to the exhibit from Montana.
This was cared for by Samuel Ander-
son. On entering the Enclosure was
seen typical lump of ore from the
Never Sweat mine, one of the Anacon-
da group 1t weighed 1000 pounds,
and was taken from the 1,3OO-foot level.
Besides containing " per cent of cop
per, it assayed from so to 70 ounces

per We're also shown. The exhibit if
not so attractively arranged as some
others, was certainly an impressive one

lection had been gathered in less than
three months time.
Among the treasures was specimen
of wire gold from the Monitor mine in
Madison county, which was undoubted-

Mention has already been made of the
sapphires and garnets from Montana

large quantity of the garnets from FCle

specimens of these beautiful gems,
which, indeed, were magnificent, show

Some crystals of molybdenite, for
which there is now some commercial
demand, were on exhibition. Specimens
of antimony ore were also shown. AS
bestos, resembling that from Italy,
from Gallatin county, and gypsum
from Cascade county that yielded an
excellent quality of plaster We're of
special interest. Good sandstones for

from Bet.

"STARTED WITH A COLD"
So Says One of the Greatest of American
"., Physicians and He Proves
What He Saws,

What He Says.
1T is surprising what mistakes even
some of the best people in the world
make
The speaker was one of the greatest
doctors the world has ever known, ard
he resides in New York
Take for example one of the most
common things in the world, namely, a
cold. People speak of taking cold,
there is really no such thing:
"A cold is symptom-an effect, iiot
cause. Did you ever know an abso-
lutely well and healthy person VINO
took cold? / never have. even under
the greatest exposure Yes. indeed, a
cold is a symptom, not cause
The gentlemen and ladies to whom
the doctor was speaking exchanged
looks of establishment but they did not
dispute the words of the learned doc
tor.
You may be surprised" he con-
tinued' when I tell you that nine
tenths of all colds occur because those

why? Because all difficulties, de-
rangements and diseases of the kid

men are usually without any pain: in
fact, without any symptoms whatever,
and this proves just what l said at
first, namely, that "a cold Is symp-
TOM -
There was a look OF alnazement up
on the faces of his hearers.
Indeed continued the doctor, most
deliberately and earnestly, Il assert
that the grip. which has been so disas-
trous, which has brought so much trou-
BILE into the world, would never nave
had it's run if the kidneys of those VINO
had suffered from it had been in perfect
condition. These great organs, if I'M
clogged, would have thrown the dis
ease from the system so that the grip
would have been unknown.
Nov, there is but one great discov-
cry for the prevention and cure of all
kidney difficulties-that grand remedy,
Warmers Safe Cure. No class of peO-
pie know or realize this better than
the medical profession, and no class is
more ready to acknowledge it.
Take my word, any one who is care
full upon the first approach of a cold
or grip and goes right to the seat Of
all colds-the kidneys-will not suffer
long from cold; will not be oppressed
by the grip and need have no fear of
pneumonia, because the kidneys, I'M
clogged, will open up the system and
throw the germs of disease out of the
body. You can depend upon this

1t was the building of the present
ugly church which gave rise to the
rhyme-Banbury seems specially rich
in doggerel verse:
Dirty Banbury's proud people,
Built church without a steeple.
This was in old days, when the town
was the center of the plush manufdc-
ture, and before the local paving and
lighting committee had nobly invested
in stones from remote Leicestershire to
mend the roads, which must have need
ed it, for at the beginning of the pres
ent century We. are told that the prn-
cipal streets possessed cart ruts nine
inches deep under ordinary crcum-

wee bit saft," as the Scotch say, 1ioat-

surface.

they rode out on al Illinois Central train.
FOR the last three days my wife has been
all wrought up over a wedding across the
street. She doesn't know the girl and she
doesn't know the man. but she began by
specializing on what the bride was going
to wear. Then Mary, the cook, raised a
question of h they We're going to eat
at the wedding supper.
Its ice cream said Mary, who kept a
sharp eye on the back door.
No said my wife, it's sherbet. Ca
terers always bring sherbet in that sort
of cans.
Last night when I got home, my wife
was sitting az the front window in the
lark and Mary was out on the back stoop
watching the dining room across the
street. Dinner had not been commenced
We're watching for the bride to come

my wife reluctantly ordered Mary in to

No l said.

examine N of the tarantulas after it
had been killed and placed on exhibition
in a nearby drugstore.
The tarantulas were left severely alone,
for none Of the spectators was found
courageous enough to attack the spiders
before man: of them had escaped. At
terWard. when most Of them had disap-
peared, one or tWo stray ones We're killed.
One of these measured nearly five inches
across, with it's legs extended. Many Of
the tarantulas We're young ones, some not
as large as a ten-cent piece, and most of
these escaped.
According to Angelo. there are at
least 500 in the nest, but the bad fright
he received when he shook out the nest
is supposed to have magnified his powers
of vision. TIL one thing that is now wor-
rying the persons in the neighborhood is
the question as to whether the scaped
arantula can live in this climate. If
they can, then the shopkeepers say that

and residents in Clark street. from Van
Buren, to Polk street. The sidewalks were
soon deserted by the usual crowd of lott
erers, and the residents were around
hunting for the death dealing invaders.
Persons with vivid i~maginations were
kept in a state of terror and excitement.
ard the drugstores in the vicinity We're
filled with anxious inquirers who wanted
slight scratches and injuries cauterized
because they thought it possible that
they must have been caused by a tar
antula bite.
Lambro Angelo, owner of the fruit
stand, was badly scared, and thought he
had been bitten. A case of bananas was
received by Angelo yesterday afternoon.
In the evening he opened the case and
lifted out a large bunch of the fruit. AS
he did so he disturbed the ~tarantula nest.
The parent spider came RUNNING out and
Angelo dropped the bananas with a yell.
In doing so he scratched his hand on the
stalk, and in his fright he imagined the
~taIantula had struck him. He rushed for
a DOCTORS office and was treated. AS no
swelling appeared, and Angelo continued
to feel natural, his terror subsidized, and he
stopped crossing himself.
When Angelo started to tear open the
box of bananas several persons gathered
around him to watch the operation. AS he
dropped the bunch and ran for the doc
tors office a large GUN white ball half
the size of a hat, fell to the sidewalk.
The Onlookers did not understand the
warning and they merely laughed at the
Italians terror. One of them went SO
far as to carelessly kick the white ball
with his foot. The kick broke the white
ball and the ~rantu came pouring out
all over the sidewalk. Angelo does not
speak fluent English. but he yelled tar

hundred of the dreaded insects crawling
over the sidewalk he was readily UNDER
