struck by Lightning goo Times.

A very singular record is attached to
a deserted and ruined house at Dart
moor, England. 1t was built by a
wealthy landowner, with the intention
of making it his country residence; but
before the building operations were
completed heavy thunderstorm broke
over Dartmoor, and the house was
struck by lightning, the roof being dis
mantled. The damage was repaired
and the house quickly finished. No
sooner did the owner take up his resi-
dence in it than another violent storm
struck the house and destroyed the
chimney stack, doing, besides, consid-
cradle damage. This made the owner
nervous, and he left the house. 1t was
soon shown that his fears were not
groundless, for in nearly every thunder
storm that passed over the district the
house has been struck, and a fresh
portion of it destroyed. Altogether it
has been struck over 200 times.

The Salt Habit.

A medical journal advises against
the excessive use of salt. 1t is first OF
all perversion Of taste, the cOndi-
ment destroying the flavor of delicate
dishes if too pronounced. Furthermore,
it is asserted that an excessive use of
salt seriously overtaxes the kidneys to
remove it, and that many cases Of de-
rangement and disease are due to this
excessive use. The salt habit, it is
added, is easily acquired, and persons
indulging themselves, soon reach a
point where nothing is palatable that
is not strongly impregnated with salt.

mony. unexplained and uncontradicted.

WAGNER'S
VARIED CAREER
Fought For the Restoration Of
LiliuOkalani.
HE DIED THIS MORNING
Had Been High in. the Council Of the
Hawaiian Govern
ment.
HE DIED THIS MORNING

Charles Wagner, an adventurous spirit
and globe t~rOtter, died at the Sisters
hospital this morning Of pneumonia, at
ter an illness of a very brief duration.
Wagner's career was one which teemed
with stirring events. About Is years
ago he went to the Hawaii islands and
became a prominent parsonage in the
affairs of the little island kingdom under
the reign of King Kalakukua. He pros
pered in business and Hawaiian poll
tics and after the death of Kalakukua
was a loya- subject of Queen Liliuoka-
lani, who reposed much confidence in
him.
Wagner's fortunes began to wane with
the deposition of the black queen. He
was one of her most ardent adherents,
among the foreign subjects, and was
put under the ban of suspicion by the
Dole government. With a number of
other daring men he conceived and at
tempted to. carry out the insurrection
against President Dole and the young
republic. The result of the insurrection
is a matter of history. 1t proved
bloodless and abort!ve, and Wagner, with
a number of other men who had been
prominent in the Inflated movement,
was arrested on a charge of high trea-
son. A strong faction insisted on sum-
mary justice being melted out to the
ringleaders of the rebellion. but the more
humane element prevailed, and Wagner
and his associates We're told to go their
way and sin no more.
Wagner's connection with the rebellion
cost him considerable property. but his
loyalty to the deposed queen was un-
swerving. Some time later he was made
a member of a Hawaiian commission,
representing the queen. The commits
sion went to Washington and tried to
interest congress in her behalf, but met
with little success.
After the failure of this commission
Wagner did not return to Hawaii, re-
manning in the United States. About
a year ago he came to Montana, and has
since been engaged in getting UP spe-
cial publications dealing with the re-
sources Of the various counties of the
state.
He arrived in Butte only a short time
ago and at the time of his death was in
the employ of w. H. Orr. He was 81
years Of age n his home is in Tifin,
Ohio, where his wife and mother reside.
The remains will probably be shipped to
Tiflin for i~nterment.

this theory which fastens upon reputa-

enormity of which good citizens shudder.
You are asked upon this f1imsy Dretext
to say that Mr.. DAILY furnished the
