Why, they'll stand anything and this

is A SECOND MESSIAH
D. Thompson Believes He Has a
Divine Mission.
WILL FAST FORTY DAYS
Tn @or:unate Man Says He Had Vision
in Which It Was communicated
to Him That H Is to Emulate
the Elk amplo o! Christ.

A man who give his name as d.
Thompson believes H.. is a second Mes
siah. Because of such belief he nas
acted in most peculiar manner and
is now in Jail as a consequence.
Yesterday morning the sheriff's office
was notified that Thompson ought to be
taken care of. Deputies Walsh and
Burnham were deta.lrd TO investigate
the case. They went to the McHale
boarding house, on IT," east side, where
they found Thompson. They took him
to JAIL where he nov is. He Will doubt
less be tried for insanity.
Mr.. McHale, proprietor of the board
ing house, said that Thompson had been
living at the house FIR some time. He
acted very peculiarly upon several oc-
casions and week ago Yesterday morn
ing he declared that he had a vision
the night before in Which 1T was re-
vealed to him that he is a second Mes
siah and that if he observes certain con-
ditions he will be Christ. The condi-
tons as presented t. his enfeebied
mind are that he shall fast for 40 days
and 40 nights. If this period of trial
and probation is passed satisfactorily
1t is his belief that ne will be invested
with divine power and wisdom, even as
was Jesus Christ
Thompson became imbued with this
idea week ago yesterday, on Shfove
Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednes-
day He Immediately started In on his
period of fasting and since that time
he has not tasted food The McHale
house people became alarmed at mis-
fast and notified the sheriff, with the
result that he was taken to Jail. He
resisted arrest for some time when the
officers went after him. and threatened
to knock the head off Deputy BURMA n
but he was finally taken along. In jail
he refuses to take any food, even as he
did at his boarding house.
Thompson appears to be Mexican
and wears the regulation sombrero o1
that country. 1t is not believed that
Thompson is his right name, but is
probably a cognomen assigned him fol
the purpose of convenience. He has beer
employed at, the Washoe lumber yards
and when taken !, to Jail had time
check from that company for $29.45 anC
$40 in money. He paid his board bill
at the McHale house before going tc
jail. 1t is likely that his condition viii
be inquired into by a commission or
insanity as soon as Judge Napton re.

An interesting letter was recently re-

eral passenger and ticket agent of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul rail-
way, from wealthy diamond hunter in
the Orange Free State, South Africa,
who has just returned to that place
after a two years tour of the world. He
says he covered over 10000 miles dur
ing the journey and that the ride of 40
miles from st. Paul to Chicago on the
Pioneer Limited in July, 1896, was by
far the most enjoyable part of the trip.
He also states emphatically that no.

found to compare with that in the
United States and particularly that of
the Milwaukee road.

ENJOYING A GOOD SLEEP

Two boys, 13 and IA years respective
~, are in Jail, enjoying the first real
sleep they have had for nearly a week.
They are Roy Bailey and Rob Huffer
of Helena, who ran away from home
last Thursday
Last evening one of the watchmen at
the upper works came to the sheriff's
Office with the two boys. The watch
man reported that they had showed
up" for work at the smelters. the same
as men seeking employment, but as
there was no work for them they were
turned away and the Waterman took
care of them out of sympathy.
At the county Jail Roy Bailey said
that he and his partner ran away from
their homes in Helena last Thursday.
They came to Butte over the Montana
Central. where they sold newspapers
on the streets until Monday, when they
came to Anaconda on an ore train.
They went to the upper works to seek
employment when they came to Ana
conda, and there were taken up by the
Waterman and turned over to the sher-
ifs office.
Have you been eating regularly?"
asked the jailer.
you bet we have-we never missed
a meal since we left home"
Are you ready to go home again?"
Yes, we have had about enough Of
this hobo business
Roy Bailey said his home was at 712
Highland street. and Rob Huffer said
his folks lived at No. 623 First street,
in the city of Helena. The chief of po-
lice of Helena was notified of the Incl
dent, but up to an early hour this
morning nothing was received in re-
ply to the sheriff's telegram as to
whether the boys would be sent for or
not. In the meantime they have been
given a good bath. square meal and
are now sleeping that sleep which only
the American boy can sleep under any
and all onditions-whether in Jail or

perplexity he applied to Capt. John

thoughtful enough to mark the place
in the bridge where the ring fell

Your Company Will Stamp You.

Perhaps L ought to say word
about the companions young man
should choose for himself in lite. You
should try TO make companions of the
best people you can become scquaint.
ed with. 1t is not necessary for this
purpose to be genius, or to have re-
markablc talent or extraordinary
eyudition. But be yourself. and be a
man, and learn to think of others be-
fore yourself, and you will have
friends enough, and of the best. A
man is known by the company he
keeps, and those who know what
friends you have will be able to form
a very correct idea of what you your
self are. You should see to it that
this estimate be as high as your OPP
purtunities may secure.
Perhaps can not better sum up
my advice to your people than to say
that have derived, and still find the
greatest pleasure in my life, from do

had allowed their judgements to

fore the people as man worshipers
rather than party adherants. In
that number were those who
have been what has heretofore
been termed simon pure Dem

vehement in their denuncia-
ton of boilers. Good men have
been. Hoo dooed from correct

defeat Of the party the disruption
Of our organization and would give
