DIDN'T LIKE QUEENS POETRY
Editors Declined With Thanks to Accept
Contributions by Victoria.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
Queen Victoria always had a lean
ing toward authorship and she has
often related to distinguished members
of the writer's craft how she. when
young sent anonymous contributions,
chiefly poems, to editors. only to re-
ceive them back with the usual eX-
preston of regret.
The same experience befell both the
Princess Louise Cthe marchioness of
Lorne) and the late duke of Albany
The latter used to tell how an editor
wrote to him. at the same time return
ing his manuscript, to the effect that,
although the statements he made were
interesting enough, they seemed to be
quite without authority.
The princess was more fortunate on
many occasions. One editor repeatedly
accepted articles on art from her be-
fore he discovered her identity.
The princess says that one of the
proudest moments of her life was that
in which she found a check made out
to herself, in the name of "Myra Fon-
tenoy," for literary work
The wife of the German emperor, too,
a few years ago was keen on acquir-
ing literary fame. Her book, a story
of old German days, wandered from
publisher to publisher without kind
word being said for it-a fact which
the empress now acknowledgment
ed her more disappointment than any
other trouble had ever done.
After the book had made its round
the empress wished to publish it on
her own account, but was strongly
disuaded from doing so by the en-
peror.
Somehow the story got abroad among
the publishers and the empress was
waited upon one day by a deputation
from leading publishing firm of Ber-
lin, who asked to be allowed the honor
of publishing her work. The empress
told the deputation that her expert
ence as an authoress had caused her
so much disappointment that after her
husband had read what she had writ
ten and pronounced unfaVorably upon
it she had ordered the manuscript to
ha DESTROYED

THEY ARE GREAT PLANTS
Cascade County mas Two of Them
That Are Big Ones.
CLOSE UP TO GREAT FALLS
Changes Going Ahead on a Large Scale
at the Boston & Montana Works
Visit to the Silver-Lead
Shelter

About five miles below the city of
Great Falls, directly on the banks of
the Missouri river, is located the
smelling plant of the American Smelt-
ing & Refining Company. 1t is a we'll
appointed plant with a capacity of
nearly 800 tons of material each day.
The only thing which strikes the OBJ
server as defective or even peculiar,
is the Circumstance that so fine a plant
located on the banks of river capable
of furnishing almost unlimited water
power. should be run by steam. The
buildings are in excellent condition
commodation of the manager and other
officers being both commodious and ele-
CANT
The plant has four furnaces, but at
present only one, with a capacity of
about 115 tons per day, is in operation
This is owing to the scarcity of suitab
ores for smelling. 1t is custom plant,
purchasing its ores chiefly at Neihart
and Barker. Considerable quantities
are also obtained from the kootenay
Fort Steele and SLOGAN districts in
British Columbia. Occa sionally ores
are received from the Occur d'Alene
mines. These sources of supply have
been somewhat interfered with of late
by the strikes in those regions. There
are now about 100 men employed. F.
NJ. Smith, manager, and p. A. L.
Mannheim, superintendent, are the Of
ficers in charge.

HORROR OF DEATH PICTURED.
Snapshot of Two Mems Faces After They
Had Drunk Poison.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
With the advent of the kodak and the
growing popularity of photography
Photographic freak pictures are becom-
ing common. THE most remarkable
snapshot picture in the world is owned
by a friend of mine in a town in
Georgia. said an enthusiastic amateur
photographer. Its story is extremely
curious. 1t seems that he went one
day to a blacksmith shop to get shot
at the men at the forge. The smith was
engaged on a difficult piece of iron
work and had two helpers. Just be
hind them on a shelf was pint flask
full of yellowish white liquor, evidently
the corn whisky for which the native
Georgian has a peculiar liking. AS my
friend was preparing to take his pic
ture one of the helpers caught sight
of the bottle and communicated his dis
covery by dumb show to his companion.
The smiths back was turned at the mo
ment, and the first man reached stealth
lily for the prize, while my friend, I'M
noticed in the corner, quickly aimed his
camera. 1t was a comical scene, and
in his mind he had already named the
photo The Stolen Drink The helper
uncorked the flask and took a swift
gulp and his comrade snatched it and
did likewise. Then for brief, breath
less instant they looked at each other
and as they did so their foolish grin
gave way to such a stare of question
ing horror as l never saw before upon
a human face. l know, because it was
then that the camera clicked and the
picture is as clear as crystal. The
flask contained carbolic acid. Within
an hour both men were dead. When
my friend took one print he broke the
negative so as to make the photograph
absolutely unique. 1t shows the for
ward end of the shop. In the for
ground is the anvil, with the smith
bending over his work. Behind him
are the two helpers, one still holding the
flask, looking at each other. You can
see tragedy in their eyes as plain as
print. 1t is a frightful and dramatic
tableau that could not be duplicated
by any sort of art"

BOSTON & MONTANA.
Work Progressing That VIII Increase the
Capacity of the Plant.

The immense smelling plant of the
Boston & Montana Company is located
on the west side of the river, about
two miles below the city 1t is Just be-
low the Black Eagle falls. which, with
the artificial dam, have a drop of about
40 feet. These falls furnish the power
by which the plant is operated. There
is a single water mOter of 5000 horse
power, and fifteen motors in all, with
an aggregate of about 1000 horse power.
The electrical plant is a superb one,
the current being transmitted from the
dynamos to the works over copper rails
said to weigh nearly 800, 900 pounds.
The works handle about 1850 tons of
ore per day, all of which is transported
by rail from the Butte mines Of the
company. Next to those at Anaconda,
these are the largest smelling works
in the state. For roasting, the Buckner
rotating furnaces are employed. These
are to be either supplanted or rein
forced by twelve McDougal furnaces.
The latter have each a capacity of 80
tons per day. What difference this will
make in the total capacity of the works
the Standard is not advised. 1t
would seem, though, that it ought
to add to it considerably. At all
events, it is most important
and costly improvement. The Nc
Douglas are upright cylinders IN
form, with "a number of different floors,
one being above another. the ore s
worked downward from the upper floor
to the one beneath it, and SO on success
sively until the bottom floor is reached,
when the roasting is complete. The
most marked feature of these furnaces
is the roasting of the ores without fuel
other than is contained in the ores
themselves. The sulphur constituent,
combining with the oxygen that is fed
to it, makes the necessary combustion
and heat. This method has. in prin
ciple, long obtained in the converting
departments of the different smelters,
but, we believe, has never before been
tried in the roasting of copper ores.
These works also manufacture large
quantities of coal gas, which is used for
fuel in some of the furnaces. As by
product of the refinery large amount
of sulphate of copper. or bluestOne, is
manufactured and sold for commercial
uses Many repairs are in progress,
new tracking being laid and buildings
overhauled. No effort is being spared
to add to the completeness and eff
| cheney of the works. The smelter is
! evidently there to stay and to grow.
