Bread and Butter Plates.

More than o year ago it was author
Itatively announced that bread and
batter plates were going out. But
they have not gone. In fact, dealers
are selling more of them to-day than
ever before, and the Swartest caterers
are advising them.
The bread and butter plate was too
dainty bit of table furnishing to
part with, and too convenient. The
hostess clings to it because it solves a
problem in table setting, and the
guest appreciates it because ii solves
the question OF manipulation.
So that woman may still use bread
md butter plates with the knc wledge
that she is entirely abreast of the
times, and she may offer them as a
wedding gift and be certain that they
will be appreciated.
These plates come this season by
the dozen in an artistic little cnse.
One may choose between half dozen
delightful designs.
A very lovely set comes in frail
china of dull pink or yellow, having
but one orn:mentation-s spray of
roses exquisitely colored, which trails
across the plate, hanging over on one
side, becoming lost to view. Until
you've seen it you won't imagine how
dainty this pattern is; and, then, i'm
portant point, it is not expensive,
considering the workmanship.
Dresden ware in flower design is
another favorite for these dishes, and
white china trimmed with gold or
green is very popular.
Individual nut dishes are something
new in the same line, and really
charming sats-gold trimmed or Drcs-
den-come at most moderate prices.
These, of course, are to hold the
salted almonds or peanuts served
throughout the courses, although
nuts are often served on the bread
and butter plates.
Wee individual dishes in green china
are set forth to hold the olives by the
hostess who likes little novelty in
her table se!ting.-Chicago Tribune

LAZY TOM WON.
The Tale of a Midnight Foot Race and
the Outcome Thereof.

appearances are deceptive" is an
adage the truth of which is often prov
ed. Tom Brannon was called Lazy
Tom because of his appearance. He
did not resent the title. Last night II
made him $50.
Jimmie Johnson is the gentleman
who contributed the $50 in order to
prove the adage.
1t all came about this way: A group
of men were assembled in a Main
street resort and took to discussing
the Philippine instruction. Some
body said the only way to whip the in
surgents was to beat them running.
Mr. johnson conceded with this view.
Go on" remarked Lazy Tom. What
do you know about running? Why, you
couldn't catch beer wagon
Il couldn't, eh?" said Mr.. Johnson,
sarcastically. well. what do you
know about running? You're as slow
as the returning of the volunteers.
Why, it would take you longer to jar
yourself into trot than it took Alger
to let go of his $4,000 job there in
Washington"
"Oh, l don't know" said Lazy Tom,
with affected carelessness. I'm not so
slow. There are Others" and he tried
to look like the Turtle as he blew to-
bacco smoke skyward.
I'll tell you what I'll do" said Mr..
Johnson, what a novelist would term
"a baleful light" coming into his eyes,
I'll just bet you $50 that l can beat
you in 100 yards"
I'll go YOU" drawled Lazy Tom.
Then every one adjourned to the
street and a crowd gathered. One
hundred yards were measured off,
judges and a starter appointed and
the contestants stripped of their outer
clothing. OF course they fiddled for
a start and disputed as to the pole po-
Sition. and fused around generally,
but finally they got away together.
At the 25-yard mark Lazy Tom, who
had let Johnson make the pace, let
out a link or so in the 70-gear of his
legs and went to the front. He drew
ahead like reconcentrado heading for
the supply depot and crossed the tape
six lengths winner At least the
crowd said it was six lengths, figuring
length equal to the length of Mr..
Johnson lying fiat and pulled out.
And then the audience howled.

cent quarrel which took place about
three years ago. At that time Mar
ron was tending bar for Harrington
& Larkin, who kept saloon on Com
mercial avenue. Deslauriers, it is said,
entered the saloon and accused Mar
ron of having beaten him out of two
bits Since that time Desauriers has
repeatedly accused Marion of having
robbed him, and last week, in the Mac
Callum g. Cloutier store, he again re-
newed the accusation and called Mar
ron vile names.
Marion kept quiet that day, but on
Saturday evening he lost his patience.
and on meeting Deslauriers on Com
mercial avenue, he decided to hold
back no longer. He went at him with
right and left, and by the time he
concluded to quit sending in his upper
cuts and left hooks he had Deslauriers
beaten.
And now Marion has gone back into
the class Of peaceable men.

ENGLISH AS A WORLD LANGUAGE
A Remarkable Suggestion Coming From
a German Professor

German Professor.
A German professor has proposed
English as a world language-and to
the Berlin Academy of Science. He
commends the choice on grounds both
of principle and expectancy. For good
or i'll, English is becoming a world
language, and in this position it will
at the same time be the right thing in
the right place. It's genderless and I'M
infected condition. which has some
times been considered it's shame, is
now discovered to be its glory. 1t is
healthily nourished on simple roots, and
it is Just the thing for a governing peo-
Pile With this encouragement our
speech reformers may abolish the last
remnant of English grammar and make
the school boy live happily ever after.
Richard Grant White used pleasantly
to argue that English was essentially
a grammarless tongue. and that the
into their heads the better 1t is true
law is good usage and it has never
been much more than a system of pre-
cedents, some of them exceedingly ar
bitrary. All attempts to fix it, for
ever in certain forms have invariably
failed. In our day it is rapidly I'M
loading itself of every restraint on free
dom of movement. The subjective mood
has gone; so have most of the silent

may follow if society happen to grow
tired of the labor they involve
in some spell of unusually hot weather
The professor has poor opinion of
volapuk and it is doomed by the very
law of its being. No language was ever
created in cold blood.

IN A RAILROAD WRECK
Young Anaconda Man Killed on
Rio Grande Western.
HIS MOTHER LIVES HERE
News Came Yesterday in Two Tele-
grams Directed to Mrs. Kath-
crime j. Whalen-Full Par
ticulars Are Lacking.

Your son was killed in a washout
near Green River last evening"" were
the words of a telegram received yes
terday afternoon by Mrs. Katherine J.
Whalen, proprietress of the B., A. & p
section house, in the west end of the
city. The message had been sent from
Salt Lake City by Superintendent
Wildly of the Rio Grande Western road.
A few minutes later the news was con-
firmed by telegram signed by Conduc-
tor Harry Raymond, which read:
Your son, James H. Whalen, was
killed in a railroad wreck near Green
River last evening"
James H. Whalen, who is referred to
in the above kilograms, was very well
known in this city, having been on the
b., A. G. P. for more than three years
in the capacity of fireman. He was a
sober young man, very attentive to his
business and this made him popular.
He worked in this city until March,
1898, when he had to leave the city on
account of his being i'll with rheuma-
tism. He went to the Arkansas Hot
Springs and remained there for some
time, after which he travelled through
New Mexico for one year. He returned
in April of this year and worked for one
month on the B.. A. & p. He left for
Salt Lake on June Is and entered the
employ of the Rio Grande Western
road.
Whalen was 90 years of age and was
born in Chicago Whalen leaves a wild
owed mother, Mrs. katherine j.
Whalen, and three sisters, Miss Lille
and Miss Margaret, who reside here,
and Miss Mollie, who resides in Colo
RADIO Springs.
The family will leave to-day for Salt
Lake and will accompany the body to
Colorado Springs, where the funeral
will take place.

THE WHEEL SLIPPED.
And a Young Lady From Butte Must Pay
for the Damage Done.


for the Damage Done.
Miss Lille Jones of Butte had an
expensive bicycle ride yesterday aft
ernoon. She and Miss Beatrice Iris
berger rented bicycles in Greigs and
took spin down the valley. The ride
was very enjoyable one, for the two
girls wore broad smiles as they brought
the wheels back into the store. Miss
Jones happiness did not last long, for
no sooner had she entered the store
than the bicycle slipped from her hand
and crashed into large showcase.
The wheel slipped from my hand
and I couldn't help it. But I'll pay
you for It," sadly cried Miss Jones,
with tears in her eyes.
Mr. Greig measured the glass, found
that it would cost 81 to have a new
one put in, and informed the young
lady to that effect.
"Oh. my! Isn't it just awful?" and
then she sighed IN pay you for it,
but you'll have to wait until l get to
Butte. Don't tell anybody about
this
Mr. Greig consented and Miss Jones
left the store.

Neighborhood Rows to BE Heard in

Neighborhood Rows to BE Heard in
Justice Courts To-Day.
Two cases will come up for trial to-
day before Justice Frank Kennedy. At
10 o'clock this morning Billy Obttz,
charged with having threatened to kill
a man named Odelhaufer, woodchop-
per, will be heard. The alleged threats
were made sometime ago. Odelhaufer
had ObttZ arrested and now asks the
court to have the man bound over to
keep the peace. The trouble is the re-
suit of row among woodchoppers.
The other case, which will be heard
at 2 o'clock p. M, will no doubt be the
more interesting Of the two as any
thing which concerns the residents of
the neghborhood of Anaconda Lake
park is sure to attract a large crowd.
In this case Mrs. Myers of Lovers gulch
is charged by young man named Har-
rity with having struck him with a

IN LOCAL MARKETS.
Sweet Potatoes the Newest Feature This
Week.

Sweet Potatoes the Newest Feature This
Week.
The luscious sweet potato, that tooth
some child of the convolvulus family sci
entifically known as Ipomea Batatas has
made it's appearance in the local markets.
Its spindle shape is a gladstone sight in
the array of vegetables on the stalls. 1t
is loaded with just as much sugar and
starch as ever and 1t is just as suggestive
of possum meat in the South, where
'possum and sweet potatoes are almost
inseparable. These esculent roots were
once known as the Spanish potato, but
luckily that name was dropped long be-
fore the events of last year. A pound of
sweet potatoes costs Is cents in Anaconda.
or two pounds for 25 cents.
Luscious watermelons, the rinds and
lots of red meat, are in from California,
and sell for cents a pound.
Berries have about retired from an ac-
tive participation in the doings at the
markets. There are few blackberries, a
few gooseberres and few blueberries to
be had.
Cantaloupes have taken their place at
the breakfast table.
Fresh vegetables are plentiful, coming
chiefly from the Bitter Root valley.

is A GOOD OFFICER.

Appointment of Captain Moran Is a
Popular One.
The Washington dispatch which was
published in yesterday morning S
Standard to the effect that Captain
John E. Moran of Great Falls had been
nominated for a position in the new
regiments was joyful news to Moran's
numerous friends in Anaconda. Moran
is well-known in this city and is very
popular with everybody. He is young
man, about "a years of age, and the re-
ports received indicate that he is every
inch a soldier and the nomination is
well deserved. He was formerly dep
uty sheriff of Flathead county.

Millions Given Away

It is certainly gratifying to the public
to know of one concern in the land who
are not afraid to be generous to the needy
and suffering. The proprietors of DR..

ten million trial bottles of this great
medicine, and have the satisfaction of
knowing it has absolutely cured thousands
of hopeless cases. Asthma, Bronchitis,

cured by it. Call on your druggist and get

turned downward; the steam is con-
vcyed through openings in the discs.
The whistles are tuned to chord and
they harmonize as accurately as we'll

harsh, as one would expect in a whistle
that is audible at such a distance, but
is quite soft and low.
