ApropOs Of these memorials, II may be sur
missed that as they are mere tablets the cost
of them was not large. 1t was certainly far
below the figure demanded by the projectors of
the William Black memorial, who want at least
700 and would like $1,000. The contrast
is droll. Two inexpensive tablets for poet
and an essayist who were both men of genius;
q lifcboat endowed at an expenditure of 1000
for a novelist who had not n grain of genius,
who never wrote book of the first quality
if it is parsimonious where Keats and Lamb
are concerned, is also capable Of good sense in
the face of the Black memorial plan. Lord
Archibald Campbell ruefully announces that he
has received only e2iO toward the lifeboat en-
tcrprSe. Why should he have received even
that much? Neglect of the classics. or a mig
gardH treatment of them. is bad enough but
gorifcation of minor writer's is worse. That
many novel readers hold this view is shown by
Lord Archibald CampbeIl's report and we re-
gard the fact an interesting testimony to
the survival of some ideas of discrimination in
a time perilous to high literary standards.
Mr.. G.. X. Shorter Specializing about the
extent to which reviews may or may not affect
the sale of a book, comes TO the conclusion that
"mOst of our lattcr-day reviewing Is sadly
ineffective" This he ascrbes partly to 1.-The
general deterioration in the reviewing art" but
this amiable solution of the problem must give
place to his more elaborate hypothesis. Books
care no longer sold by reviews they are
sold by the paragraph, if at all. They are
sold. further, by the introduction of the per-
"sOnal element-a not necessarily self sought
element. This finds expression at the dinner
"table, and more than publisher of novels
"is disposed to attribute greater potency to
"dinner-table conversation than to the news
paper in assisting him to sell his books But
"this dinner-tabe conversation Is largely in
"spired by the personal paragraph" Mr.
Shorter is a copious contributor of paragraphs

WAS A RED-LETTER DAY
Geologist Clarence King on the
Stand.
Is LAST EXPERT WITNESS
His Testimony Contained a Wealth of
Detailed Facts-A Large Crowd
Gathered to Listen to His
Evidence.

The week opened with a red letter
day in the celebrated Pennsylvania
mining case, in which the Montana
Ore Purchasing company is pitted
against the Boston & Montana COM
pany, and which has been on trial be-
fore Judge Clancy for eight weeks al
ready and will continue on trial for
some time longer.
The presence of Clarence King, the
very noted geologist, upon the witness
stand is what impaired prominence to
yesterdays proceedings. Mr.. King is
the eighth and last expert witness ior
the defendant and went upon the
stand in the morning and spent most
of the day there. 1t had been chron-
icled abroad that he would take the
stand yesterday and an exceptionally
large audience gathered in the court
room, considering the specialized and
technical character of the testimony
dn prospect. The evidence given at the
trial is Of particular concern to sur
veyors, mining engineers and mining
men, and the audience was composed
chiefly of gentlemen of these profess
sions. However, there were people of
T.
present also. The SURPRISING interest
of the prospective testimony to mining
engineers was specially emphasized by
the presence Of the whole engineering
force Of the Anaconda Mining company
and the mining concerns allied to it,
who were given holiday expressly
that they might attend the trial and
listen to Mr.. King.
Mr.. King has occupied two very en-
inent places in the geological survey
organizations of the government. He
commanded the governmental survey
expedition that made a typographical
ane geographical survey and mineralo-
gical examination of the belt of coun-
try traversed by the Pacific railroads,
and he was the first head of the Unit
ed States geological survey. Also, he
has studied the geology of Europe and
America very closely and has had a
very wide experience in the eXamina-
tion, development and management of
mines. Therefore he is qualified to
speak learnedly and authortativeiy
upon geological and mineralogical for
nations, q and there was reason
to look forward with interest
to his exposition of the geo
logical phenomena contained in the
ground being lawed over, and his ex-
planation Of how the dynamic forces
operated in prehistoric times to pro.
duce them. 4-
AS had been foreseen. Mr.. King
testimony was exceedingly interesting
1t was explicit, particular and positive

WILL ERECT A BUILDING
First Steps Taken by the Knights
of Pythias.
CAPITAL STOCK $4,000
The Pythian Castle Has Been Incorpor-
ated-The Sixth Ward Social
and Political Club Or
ganized.

The Knights of Pythias of Butte have
taken the first steps toward the erection
of building in this city. The Pythian
Castle association has been organized ami
Incorporated, the articles having been
filed with the county clerk and recorder
yesterday. The incorporators and trus-
tees OF the association for the first three
months are George c. Fitschen, Harry
krueger, John G. Evans, Alfred Doull
and A. N. Yoder. The capital stock is
placed at 100000, and is divided into 5000
shares at $40 each. The stock is assessa-
BILE and the amount actually subscribed
is as follows: George S. Fitschen. John
G. Evans and Alfred Doull so shares
each. The objects of the incorporation,
as stated in the articles, are to erect a
building, provide suitable quarters for
lodge rooms to be used by the different
knights of Pythias lodges in the city, and
to rent store rooms for business purposes
The incorporation is for 20 years.
1.-The Sixth Ward Social and Political
Club is the title of an organization
which has just been Incorporated in Butte
by j. V. Holton, w. E. Cloves, Charles
Demars, f. M. Dolan and E. p. Holton.
The articles Of Incorporation, which were
filed with the county clerk and recorder
yesterday, state that the purposes of the
organization are to conduct social club
for the mutual social enjoyment of its
members, establish headquarters buy or
sell real estate or personal property, bor-
row or loan money and for general social
and political purposes. The corporation
has no capital stock and the five drec-
tors who will serve during the first three
months are the men whose names appear
as ineorporators.

Il graduated from Yale in 1862, hav-

that l took the postgraduate course.
In 1868 1 went to California and there
became connected with the state geol-
ogical survey service, and later enter
ed the United States service in the
geological survey. After this, in Cal
ifornia, I was assistant engineer Of
the mines on the Mariposa estate. In
1867 1 resigned this position to take
command of the United States govern
ment expedition created to examine
the country opened by the Pacific rail-
roads. This was in the nature of a
typographical and geographical sur
vey, and included an investigation of
the mineral resources Of the country
exploited, which was belt 100 miles
wide. This work lasted from 1867 to
1876. and the maps and reports con-
nected with it We're personally super
vised by me. ! also made a memoir
of the Comstock lode. In 1877 l re-
signed from this survey, the work hav-

self acquainted with all the conditions
and testifying in the case
DO you know what the controversy
in this case is in a general way ask
ed Mr.. Patterson.
Il do,' said Mr. King.
Having that in view, viii you teli

ground in reference to it
THE general lines of the seologlcai

I'VE have limited the scope OF the
matters witnesses have testified to,
and l hope the rule will not be chang-

"The matter the witness Will testify
to will be perfectly proper, your hon
or" said Mr.. Patterson.
while it is rule that the evidence
must be confined to the allegations ana
the pleadings, you gents have manag-
ed to get in everything. You wanted to
get in the maps of the Michael Dewitt
case, and you got in all the testimony,
about. And you, Mr.. Hughes, have got
way outside the bounds So III over
rule your objection" said the court.
I'VE take an exception said Mr..
Hughes.
"The hill the claims in the case are
on is granite mass. This granite mass
is intersected by porphyry dykes, two
of which can be distinctly recognized.
These run east and west, and they fol-
lowed the extension of the granite.
After the intrusion of the porphyry
dykes, the country was ruptured,
sheered, plated by a system of east and
west fissures. These traversed the
country for considerable distance,
and certainly crossed the ground in
dispute. in my opinion. They were
mineralized, and one Of them at least
was fractured by another and subse-
quent east and west fissure, which was
mineralized subsequently. After this,
compound, composite fault was form
ed, which crossed the east and west
veins from north to south. This fault
not only faulted and displaced the
east and west veins, but dislocated
and mixed up the veins and country
between the two fissures constituting
the compound, composite fault into an
unrecognzable mass said the wit
ness.
well. you tell where the composite
faults are. either by reference to the
map o. model?" said Mr.. Patterson.
II speak of composite fault because
the two tissures are parts of dyna-
mic union. Fissures of this kind part
