Caught by an Old Game,

Il may look easy said the jeweler
with a sigh, but / have always had
an idea that l understood my business
and was up to all the tricks of the
trade. l have just passed through an
experience that has taught me that
there are a few things in this world
that l may learn with profit to myself
"A matter of two weeks ago a young
man entered the store. | recognized
his manner the moment set eyes upon
him, and had n tray of engagement
rings on the show case before he got
through blushing.
After he recovered from his confus-
ion and made his wants known, he set
tied down to business and proceeded to
select a ring. He wanted he said.
something that would be a credit to the
girl he was going to marry. He didn't
care about the price as long as the ring
would please his promised bride. He
finally selected handsome diamond
ring that held one Of the finest dia..
monds in the store. Paying the price
that | asked him, which was $3.50, he
departed with the promise that he
would call again when he needed a ring
to bind the wedding ceremony that
would soon take place.
yesterday he entered the store with
a face as long as one of my counters
ana wanted me to take the ring back,
as the girl had broken the engagement
l told him that that wasn't business.
I know it. said he, but I can't af-
ford to keep such an expensive ring
and I would never have any use for
it if I did, as / have lost all faith in
women. | thought perhaps that you
might take the ring back and allow
me half what I paid for it.
He looked so bad and forlorn, and
made such a good offer, that I broke
one of the rules of the house and paid
him what he asked.
After the young man had departed,
I was putting the ring away. when
something led me to examine the stone
more closely. Then. to my horror,
discovered that the diamond had been
taken out and a paste imitation put
back in it's place.
But I am not complaining. I haven't
even notified the police. ] can recog-
nize genius when ! see it,"-Detroit

A Successful OperatiOu,

Missoua, March 6.--The friends of
little Hebe, daughter CT Mr.. and Mrs
Charles Jeffreys of this city. will be
pleased to hear of her recovery from
an operation performed in Helena on
Saturday last, news to which effect was
received here to-day. The little one
was operated upon by Drs. Cole and
Dean, who removed from the palm
of her right hand tumor which has
grown so rapidly within few months
as to nearly cover the hand. She is
resting quietly and is recovering from
the shock and the effects of the anes-
thetic as rapidly as circumstances will
permit and the attendants give every
hope of the ultimate success of this
operation and no fear is entertained
that the hand will not be as usual and
perfect as ever 1t was. The tum0r Is
said to have gained an almost incred-
ible size within short period of

Many Factions.

Missoula. March 6.--The suggestion of
the probable candidacy of Senator Wor-
den for mayor of Missoula, as stated in
to-day's Standard, has inspired a small
coterie of democrats towards announc-
ing Representative Mclaughlin as the
democratic nominee for the office AS
the time rapidly approaches for the
holding of municipal conventions,
doubtless many ebony -hued equines will
soon be 'trotted out into the political
arena. 1t is now quite evident that
there are about seven different and dis
tinct political factions in this city and
the contest promises to become inter-

From the Washington Times.


Senator John p. Jones of Nevada
has it is said, made up his mind that
this country ought not TO expand. He
told this story the other day to eX
plain his position on this important
subject: "A farmer out in Nevada" he
says, invested in some hogs. paying
therefor 3 cents per pound. This was
in the spring. In the fall the farmer
after keeping and feeding his hogs all
summer. took them to market and sold
them for cents pound-iust the price
he paid for them.
"'How in the devil do you expect to
make any money out of raising hogs
at shat rate?' said neighbor who
learned of tho transaction.
IL don't know as | have any reason
to complain said the farmer. Haven't
! had the benefit of the society of the
hogs all summer?
According to Senator Jones theory
the United States Will be in the position
of his farmer friend if we take and hold
the Philippines.
