who voted for Toole The vote was
Conrad, "a; CLARK, "a; Goddard, Is;
Toole. s.; Maginnis, 2; Hartman, 2;
Mantle, /; Henry, 4; Luce, 1; Pat
Carney of Madison, 1.
The investigating committee did not
report and there was nothing unusual
occurred in the joint session. The con-
test has now lasted just week, during
which time Clark has gained 1S votes,
but it is certain that he has not yet de-
veloped bis full strength, although his
election is very doubtful unless he can
command the support of the republi-
cans, and it is confidently claimed here
that they will not vote for democrat.
In that event deadlock is inevitable
and predictions are freely made that
no senator will be elected at this SEES
sion.
In the senate resolution providing
that the ballots i'll seven precincts of
Flathead county only be recounted in
the Geiget- Wliteside contest was lost
after considerable discussion. 1t is
claimed that the votes Of these precincts
only are at issue and the resolution was
designed to expedite the recount On
motion of Whiteside himself, the senate
decided to recount the ballots of every
precinct as they relate to the election
for state senator.

Helena, Jan. 10. The joint session
Of both houses of the legislature today
for the purpose Of balloting for United
States senator was not attended by any
explosions or sensations. The commit
tees appointed to investigate the charges
of bribery are still at work, but not a
word was said in joint session touching
on this matter. There apparently
seems to be slow reaction setting in
in favor of w. A. Clark, which leads
deep conviction that conspiracy was
on foot to defeat him. The laugh or
joke seems to be OH Whiteside, who
was in such hurry to explode his
bribery bomb. Many wonder why he
didn wait until he had squeezed sew
eral thousand more out of Clark's
agents. and then the sensation would
have been SO much more startling,
while some hold the opinion that DAILY
didn't care tc loosen his grip on more
than the $500 at one time.
The fifteen republican members con-
tinue to stick together and today they
gave a complimentary vote to an old
republican wheel horse, casting their
votes solidly for ex- United States Sena-
tor T. G. Power. w. G. Conrad, who
has led the race from the start, gained
two votes, while w. A. Clark added
one to his increasing number. L. A.
Luce Of Bozeman is new aspirant, re-.
ceiving one vote. j. K. Toole lost
three votes

The grand jury was elnpanelled to-
day to investigate the charges Of brib-
cry connected with the senatorial fight.
The jury is composed Of G. F. Ellis,
real estate and insurance; P. R. Cram,
teamster; j. P. Latch, miner; John A.
Welcome. clerk; W. H Graham, taxi
dernist; B. Z. Smith, plumber; J. B.
Lands, painter. The court charged
the jury at some length rs to the law.
The court selected @. F. Ellis as fore
man and instructed the jury to inves-
tigate county matters as we'll as affairs
relating to the legislative session. At
the conclusion Of the courts charge, At
torney General Nolan addressed the
court and said that both houses Of the
wish that he assist the county attor-.
ney before the grand jury. He said he
recognized that while the resolution
was not as binding as the law upon the
question Of who is the proper person to
appear before the grand jury, it was of
such nature that he could hardly dis
regard it. In order to prevent the pos
sibiilty Of invalidating the indictments
in the case if he appeared before the
grand jury, he desired an opinion from
the court upon the matter. County At
torney Mcconnell said he had no objec-
tion to the attorney general assisting,
SO long as such action would not in
validate any action the jury might take
because of possible interference with
the code provision.
Mr.. Nolan said he hardly felt at lib
erty to disregard the communication
from the legislature. To settle the
matter, however, he would, in case the
court excluded him, apply to the su-
preme court for writ of certiorari in
order to review the courts action and
havs that tribunal pass upon the
matter.
Judge McIntire, in ruling upon the
point. said that he admitted it was an
important question. He was in some,
doubt about the matter and consequent.
ly would be happy to have the supreme
court pass upon it. In order to get the
matter before that tribunal as early as
possible he would rule that no person
besides the county attorney has the
right to appear before the grand jury.
~ will decide, said the court, 'that
the proper advisory officer of the grand
jury is the county attorney and that no
one else has the right to appear before
the jury except the witnesses who may
be called
This afternoon the supreme court

The head of a family in this city was
lately debating with friend whether
to accept the opinion of a Reading
specialist that certain surgical opera
ton should be performed, He is a law
yer, and expressed himself with lawyer
like precision: "The temptation of skill
is so great that it cannot be safely dis
regarded In accepting the verdict of
our leading surgeons. The general
medical consultants defer so entirely
to the specialists that no new light can
be had from them. One knows not what
to do."-N. Y. Sun.

TO BE ENLARGED.
Soldiers Home at Washington VIII
Undergo Alterations That Are
Necessary to he Made.

Necessary plans are being made for
enlarging the soldiers home in WASH
ington, the enlargement being made,
imperative by the great number of reg
ulars who were incapacitated during
the recent war with Spain. The home.
is supported by contributions from the
army itself, a small sum being deducted,
each month from the pay of every man,
in the regular army.
Since the close of the campaign in
Cuba and Porto Rico it has been found
the present buildings are entirely too
small to accommodate all who apply,
and this is especially true of the hos
pital. The governors of the home have.
decided to increase the hospital facin-.
ties so per cent, and two large wings
are to be added to the main buildings.
Contracts to carry out this work are
now being let, and the hospital will
be supplied with all appliances for
modern surgery, Numerous applica-
tions for admissions to the home will
necessarily follow the closing of the
campaign in the Philippines.

ABSTINENCE OF A CAMEL.
IT Is Merely the Result of Train
ing-The Animals Moan for
Water.

There are many fables told about the
camel; riding him is supposed to make
people seasick; he has the reputation
of being very vicious; he is supposed to
have several stomachs and to go for
weeks without water as a matter of
choice. I can only say that in nearly
four years of experience have never
yet met with a case Of seasickness or
really Vicious camel, except when they
ore in state called by the Arabs
"saim," which means fasting" and
corresponds to the "rutting" period in
stays. AS regards the camel's stomach,
1 believe 1t Is identically the same as
that of any other ruminant, or that, at
any rate, there is no formation Of
stomachs which would enable him to do
without water.
His abstinence is merely the result
of training; and 1t is a fallacy to sup
pose that he is better without water or
can work as well. In the camel corps
we watered our camels every second
day In the summer and every third day
in winter, giving them their fill of water
morning and evening on those daysi
but II in the summer we expected a long
desert march without water we trained
them beforehand by only watering
every third day. but never found that
this improved their condition. The
Arabs keep their camels longer without
water, it is true, but then they travel
slower and their animals are grazed
on soft food, containing a certain
amount of moisture; this lowers their
condition and makes them inferior to
corn-fed camel when hard work and
long, fast journeys have to be done.
We always found that if we put a
grass-fed Arab camel alongside of ours
1t failed in work and endurance; if corn
fed it cried out for water as soon and
sooner than ours did. say "cried out"
because a camel when it wants water
means continually, and there is no more
painful sound at night in the desert
than the ceaseless moaning of thirsty
camels.-Cornhill Magazine.

DEATH CAUSED BY POTATOES
Two South Dakota Boys DIE After
Eating Tubers That Had
Been Frozen.

The first deaths in South Dakota from
eating potatoes which had been frozen
and afterwards thawed are reported
from the ceded portion of the Yankton
Indian reservation, Two sons, one aged
IA and the other 10, of j. D. Casteel, a
settler, were taken sick and died be-
fore doctor could be summoned.
They were taken with violent bains
In the stomach and bowels, and when
dying exhibited all the symptoms of
apoplexy. The physician pronounced
y q case Of poisoning of zynotic origin,
probably from stagnant water. Inves-
tigation, however, proved that just pre-
vious to the sudden deaths a cave open
ing out of the kitchen had been cleaned
out. In this cave large quantity of
potatoes had been stored, which by
repeated freezing and thawing out dur
ing the winter and spring had become
decomposed.
The children were fond of raw po-
tatoes, and in looking over the pile
found some apparently sound, which
they ate, thus partaking of the zynotic
poison, which acted as poisonous yeast
in their systems and resulted in their
speedy death.
