m THE TWILIGHT or LOVE

n years ago you told me. dear.
That ON day eE- dreams would fade
TO these halt hearted fancies drear,
should have grieved and felt dismayed
But yet so softly has the rain
OF dead years ashes settled on
Each glowing passion that the pain
Was smothered ere all light had gone.
All, be it thus with loves deceased
Its day is done; its shrine too high
To brave times destined tragedies.
Let us steal down ere night comes by.

COMES FROM ST MiCHAELs,
MD.
Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-10-20
QUITE BADLY BURNED.

The beautiful Margaret theater and
the illustration department of the Ana
conda Standard, which is situated in the
rear of the balcony. came near being
blown into Jericho this morning at about
3 o'clock by an explosion of benzine in
a waste water barrel. Special Artist J.
w. Trowbridge was not present at the
time but his assistant, Mr.. Schultz, and
Charles Aspiring, Jr., a helper, came near
being blown into eternity, but luckily
escaped with sever burns about the face.
The waste pipes leading from the plate
tank became stopped up and a barrel
water. Benzine is used to wash the
plates and this was allowed to run into
the waste water, but there was not a
large quantity of benzine. This morning
the employees had several plates to wash
and struck a match to look into the bar
rel and ascertain If there WAS room
enough in it to accommodate the water
in the tank. AS soon as the match was
lowered in the barrel the floating benZine
exploded in the faces of the men, they
both having looked into the barrel at the
same time. A can of gasoline which had
recently been opened occupied a position
a few feet away but did not ignite. The
blaze was extinguished by the men, who
called for help. DIR. Sigh was summoned
and dressed their wounds, and they We're
taken home. Both are in bed. Mr..
Schultz is the worst burned, but his con-
dition is not serious. o Of the plates
were destroyed. Damage nominal.

CURIOUS

Millions in bad matches. BY the SIM
pie trick of cutting the wood across the
grain, or of cutting it with the grain at
such an angle hat it will split almost
lengthwise when friction is applied, it is
asserted that the match trust is adding
to it's profits by enormous sums yearly,
says the Chicago Tribune.
1t has been noticeable to any user of
matches, during the last few weeks in
particular, that the wood is of bad quail
ity and that the match is apt to break
just below the birthstone, or to split Just
above the fingers.
Is it because nature has ceased to
guide the grain of wood as before?
Is it because the workers in the match
factories are any less skillful, AVE be-
come bungling in their work?
Or is it because the concerns that make
matches, being incorporated in a power
full alliance, nave hit upon a way to in
crease their profits by creating a demand
for matches that is not proportionate
with the needs of the match users?
Whatever the reason, the fact remains
that the matches are bad-perhaps not
one Of ten, sometimes two of three. And
without ascertaining the cause, figures
can be made to show that the people
are paying to the dealerS-Which, in turn,
means to wholesalers M the manufac-
turers-more than $4,000, 900 a year Or
more thar they would pay were the
matches of good quality.
TIL average consumption OF matches
a day for each person can, perhaps, be
placed at ten. The cigarette smoker
often will use as many as Is and the
cigar smoker as many as %. The house,
wife hardly could use less than 10 and
the small boy finds many needs for the
flame producers.
Counting the population of the coun-
try at 70, 200. 900, the numbe of matches
used each day would be 700, 000, 600. On a
basis of three in every ten matches being
bad, the numbe of useless matches for
which the people of the country are fore
ed to pay each day would be 210, 900, 600.
Quite a few, to be sure, but wait till the
figures for a year are shown.
In a week the total multiplies to 1.410, :
600. 900. In a month counting 80 days,
G. 300. 600, 900 bad matches have helped to
enrich the men who make. distribute, and
sell them.
The figures are already in billions,
but when the uni for one day is
multiplied by 3G5. the astonishing total
of &c, 250. GOO. 900 is reached. Take this
many matches. pile them in a heap, and
their bulk could better be understood.
