THE OWNER or A
Fine Sewing
Machine

If so, this should be of interest to YOU
for you certainly want to take care of
it. be it old or new. So many people
seem to think it is all right to buy any
thing that is labeled sewing machine
oil, and they could not make q greater
mistake, for after using the so-called
sewing machine oil for few months
their machine commences to run hard
and before the end of the year 1t takes
a half-horse power to run it, and by
this time possibly some INSCRIPTIONS
agent comes along and tells them the
machine is no good or is worn out. when
the fact is all the machine needed was
to have his inferior oil cleaned off and
oiled with a first class oil to make it as
good as ever. Therefore you had better
take no chances. but buy that which
you know to be the best, the pure Elk
celsior Sperm Oil, warranted not to
gum. Try it and be convinced.

THlRTY-FiVE SHORT.
Walters Has His Friend Noonan Arrested
on the Charge of Robbery.

Thomas Walters left Anaconda Satur-
day and remained in Butte that night
and intended to arrange some business
matters here preparatory to making an
extended visit in Pennsylvania. Yester-
day morning he woke up $35 short.
therefore his contemplated journey will
be postponed for a few days. Mr.. Wal
ters met an old friend here named
James Noonan. They had a few drinks
together and they also walked around
the various resorts, all the while indulg-
ing in pleasant "reminiscences. Walters
invited his friend to share his room in
the Silver lodging house, in East Park
street, which invitation was gratefully
accepted. MI Walters understood that
Noonan was "brOke' and he made
things as pleasant as possible for him.
Late in the night Walters retired, say
ing to Noonan that he would leave the
door open so that he (Noonan) could go
to bed whenever he got ready. Moo
nan did not share his friends lodging
and Walters gave the matter little
thought before he missed the S35, then
it occurred to him that after all maybe
Noonan had gone into the room and
finding Walters asleep went through his
pockets and took $35.
With this deeprOOted conviction in his
mind Walters caused the arrest OF Moo
nan, and last night Officer Dougherty
took the man TO the police station.

A Story That the salvation Army Man
Had Committed Suicide.

During the recent county political
campaign w. J. Lee gained lot of no.
toriety by his connection with the Clark
howlers and a great many strange and
true things We're said about him. He
took his ''roasts' With commemorate
grace. and at the opportune nome at
drew down his muniticent salary and
left for Rossland. He returned a few
weeks ago from the queens domain and
has since made Montana his abiding
place. OF all the things that have been
said about Lee either by tongue or pen,
the latest from the Billings Gazette will
surely leave the deepest impression
upon the ward orator. The Gazette
says:
''W. J. Lee, a Salvation Army and
Volunteer worker, who figured in the
recent campaign in Butte, committed
suicide Wednesday by blowing off the
top of his head.
That assertion will be considered as
one of the few made about Lee which
have not been proved, for Lee is we'll
and thoroughly alive. A man named
Lee did commit suicide in this city last
Wednesday, but not w. j. Oh no, mot

Lee would say.

Tea Raising.

DR.. Charles U. Shepard, who is in
charge of the experimental tea garden
at Summervillc, S. c., has made a re-
port to the secretary Of agriculture coy
ering the progress made up to date. He
says there are now about 80 acres of
land under tea cultivation and that g.
900 pounds were sold last year at pro-
fit Of 25 per cent. It's estimated that
when all the plants now growing arrive
at maturity they will yield 10000
pounds annually. Dr.. Shepard express
es the opinion that the fact that the tea
plants lived through last winter, when
the most intensely cold weather in the
history of the section was experienced,
IS guarantee that the weather condi-
tions will prove satisfactory. The la
Dor problem, he says, has been solved
by establishing school for the educa-
tion of the Negro children in tea pick
ing. The quality of the tea also has
proved satisfactory Of the black tea
he says: st has distinctly character
istic flavor, and, like some Of the choic-
er Oriental teas, its liquor has more
strength than its color indicates" The
green tea, he says, has attracted keen
interest in the trade and among the con-
sumers, and he adds that Oriental teas
can hardly furnish the like in this coun-
try. The State.

president of Yale university, answering
at some length the question, How was

The children Of household grow

Good Advice.

;;Burdette gives good advice, as fol.
lows: There are young men that do
not work, my son; but the world is not
proud of them. It does not know their
names, even; 1t simply speaks Of them
as old so-and-so's boys. Nobody likes
them, nobody hates them; the great
busy world doesn't even know that they
are there. So find out what you want
to be and do, son, and take off your
coat and make a dust in the world.
The buster you are the less deviltry you
We apt to get into, the sweeter will be
your sleep, the brighter and happier
your holidays, and the better satisfied
will the world be with you"

THE GREEN EYED MONSTER
a Young Man Takes a Letter Of the
Woman He Loved.
Spartanburg, S. c., Aug.

He broke down AMI exclaimed: Il
loved that girl better than anything in
the world, and could not stand fo1
that fellow to come to see her; that's
why I did it. And thereby hangs, an
interesting tale. The man who had
uttered the words has just been bound
over for trial at the October term Of the
United States court in Greenville on
the charge Of stealing and destroying
mail.
This man was W. T. Crouch, a young
fellow about 25 years of age, from Sill.
yer Street, NeWberry county. Itseems
that he was desperately in love with
Miss Minnie L. Werts. Mr.. William
Eddy of Newberry, dry goods clerk,
knew Miss Werts and had called upon
her several times. This made Crouch
very jealous and one day-June I last,
according to the oficers-he saw let
ter in the postofice addressed to Miss
Werts, bearing the Newberry post
marks. 1t is alleged that he could not
resist the temptation to take it.
Anyway a few days afterward Mr..
EDDY got letter signed with the name
of the young lady reading thus:
kind friend:
Il don't care for you to call any
moor at all. "
In few days Crouch told the young
lady there was a letter at the post
Office for her. She went to the Office
and asked, but could find no letter.
Later on she went down to Newberry
and there her friends asked her why
she had treated Mr.. Eddy so badly,
telling her Of the note he had gotten
from her. That was a revelation. Soon
Dir. Eddy called and Miss Werts was
shown the note, which she Immediately
declared she had not written.
Miss Werts at once reported the mat
ter to the postal authorities and Post.
Office Inspector J. F. Old6eld went to
Silver Street. He charged Crouch with
the theft of the letter, but the young
man denied it. Finally the inspector
made the young fellow sit down and
write from dictation. He read him the
letter written Mr.. Eddy. When it was
finished an examination showed the
same capitalization and chirography
and the word more" was spelled
moor as in the Eddy note. The in
spector promptly arrested Crouch who
maintained his denial, on the charge
of violating section I43l, U. S. Postal
Regulations.
Tuesday Crouch was brought to Co.
lumbia by the inspector and James NJ.
Davidson, chief clerk U. S. marshal S
Office. He was taken before Commis-
sioner Henry F. Jennings, where a
preliminary was waived and the pris-
oner was released on 5000 bond. While
at the commissioners Office he broke
down and uttered the words at the be-
ginning of this article, which have a
pathetic interest to all who have felt
the pangs Of the green. eyed monster
that is considerably called Jealousy
The State.

Frequently Struck.

It is almost weekly occurrence for
the Washington monument to be struck
by lightning, the shaft being so high
that it attracts every bolt within vide
radius. There are no less than 1876
lightning conductors fixed inthe cap Of
the great structure, and each Of these
leads to thick wire which carries the
electricity down the inside of the shaft.
It is said that if the conductors had
been placed on the outside, as on ether
structures, there would be many acci-
dents and the handsome structure
would be scared and Clipped by the
frequent bolts.
