Chinese Compliments.

From the Youths Companion.
There is one point in which Chinese
etiquette, so often absurd, is much
more sensible than ours. That is in its
failure to regard the imputation of ma
ture age as a discredit to either man
or woman, or, on the other hand, the
imputation of youthfulness as COM
pliment to persons of either sex. An
example of Chinese politeness connect
ed with the visit of the Prince and
Princess Henry of Prussia to Shanghai
is amusing, as it reflects on our own
false notion of the complimentary In
such matters.
The German prince and princess were
visiting a notable mandarin, one of
whose first questions to the prince-this
being an invariable matter of Chinese
politeness-was:
How old are you?"
"A little more than &c." answered the
prince, smiling.
Indeed said the mandarin. Your
highness appears So
The mandarin then turned to the in
terpreter-Herr Voight, German-and
inquired the princess age. She an
swered: ''Thirty-two." The interpreter
interpreted, and the mandarin made
remark in Chinese evidently intended to
be complimentary. The interpreter
blushed uneasily, and hesitated to
translate the remark, The prince saw
the difficulty and laughingly COM
manded:
"Out with it, voight!"
He says" the interpreter then trans
lated to the princess, that your high
ness looks like co.,
He had meant it well enough, and, of
course, the princess had sense enough
not to take it i'll.

BROKE ALL RECORDS.
Butte Street Railway Carried More Than
10000 People.


The Butte Street Railway company
broke all records on Monday as to the
number of people carried on it's cars in
the city. The total number of fares
collected in Butte was over rs, 900. And
making allowance for the children, for
whom fares were not paid, and persons
who eluded the conductors, of whom
there are always a large number on
such days, 1t Is estimated that nearly
if not altogether 10000 people rode on
the street cars on Labor day. The
capacity of the Columbia Gardens line
was taxed to it's utmost and 49, 800 fares
were collected, Making allowance for
children and people who did not pay,
1t is estimated that at least 1900 were
carried over that line. 1t is estima ted
that fully 10000 people were in the gar
dens at one time. The vast crowds
were handled with remarkable eXpedi-
ton and care by the street railway
company, and only one accident was
reported, and that was caused by
woman jumping from a fast moving
car in the Parrot addition. She was
shaken up and slightly bruised, but her
injuries were insignificant. At the gar
dens several children fell off the swings,
but none We're badly injured
The Labor day committee will make
a neat sum out of the celebration, as
it is understood it will receive 10 per
cent of the fares collected by the street
railroad company and 10 to 25 per cent
from the privileges at the gardens on
that day.

IT is A GREAT SUCCESS
Progress Made by the Liquor
Dealers Association.
REFORMS IT HAS WORKED
Every Saloonkeeper in the County Will
Soon Be on the Membership List.
A Saving of s35, 700 Has Been
Accomplished.

The Silver Bow County Retail Liquor
Dealers association, recently organized
| in the city. has made wonderful pro-
gress during the short period of its
existence. This association was formed
| during the month of June of the pres
ent year, and it can already boast of a
membership in the county of Silver Bow
OF over $50 saloonkeepers, and it is only
matter of very short period of time
when the name of every retail liquor
dealer in the county will appear upon
the roll of membership. This organ
ization has been most successful in the
attainment of the objects and purposes
Tor which it was organized, and it
speaks favorably for the enthusiasm,
earnestness and determination of its
members in the prosecution of its work
1t has been the means of saving the
saloonkeepers of Silver Bow county the
annual sum of over $35, 900, by procuring
concession from the local brewers of
the payment of one-half of the war tax
which means a reduction to the saloon
Keeper of so cents on every barrel of
beer. This has been accomplished in
addition to a reduction in the price Of
mineral water, ice and other merrhan-
disc used in the retail liquor trade.
A few days ago the local brewers,
comprising Henry Mueller, president
of the Centennial Brewing company;
Henry Muntzer of the Butte brewery,
Mr.. Hughes of the Olympia brewery,
and Chris Nessler of the Silver Bow
brewery, met in conference with spe-
cial committee of this association. As
result of their conference, Henry
Mueller, speaking on behalf of the local
brewers, stated that they had agreed
that they would pay one-half of the
war tax from and after the first day
of September, 1899, which meant re-
duction of so cents on every barrel of
beer: and he stated that the concession
was made by the local brewers in good
spirit, and on behalf of the delegation.
He said that he wished the association
success, and promised that as far as
practicable they would give the organ
ization their moral support in obtaining
the protection and reform for which
the association was created.
At the last general meeting the asso-
citation adopted the report of the spe-
cial committee and rendered their
thanks to the local brewers who had
acted in such a fair manner and re-
solved to encourage the home industry
relative to the sale of local beer as far
as possible. 81
The association also entered into a
vigorous crusade against the grocers
and others who, in violation of the state
laws and city ordinances, sell liquor by
retail, without aretail license, and who
thereby enter tena very large extent
into an unfair competition against the
members of the association, who pay
into the treasures of the city, county
and state in the aggregate sum of $780,
900 per annum for the license to trans

wREcK1NG A COWBOY.
How . TenderfOot with q SILK Hat
Did Him Up In . Little
Gun Play.

"There is at least one cowboy in Ari-
IONA whose head is three sizes smaller
than ii was month ago." said the Chi
cagO drummer. as he brushed the a.kali
dust off his coat collar. AT Tombstone
! fell in with young man from New
haven who was prowling over the
country in search Of a good thing, but
not caring much whether he found it or
not. One afternoon he stood with his
back to the street, reading the posters
ON IL billboard. He had on a silk hat,
and presently a cowboy emerged from a
store on the opposite side of the square.
One glance at that hat brought out q
gun. and there was u pop! pop! pop! till
six bullets had been fred. The tender.
foot never turned, nor let on that he
heard the shooting. In ten seconds the
gun was reloaded. ard there was an
other tusil1ade. There were a hundred
people looking on and shouting and
aughing. but the tenderfoot kept his
back TO the street until the twelfth shot
had been fired. Then he calmly turned
about. removed his hat and placed it on
the ground. and stepping back a pace
or two. he drew his gun and shot il to
pieces. The remains were yet smoking
when he picked them up. crossed the
square. and holding the handful of old
hat out 10 the cowboy. he humbly said:
"'lf you have a couple of mont his to
spare | might be willing to teach you
how TO handle gun!' ....
But hadn't the cowboys bullets hit
the hat?" was asked.
Every blessed one Of them" replied
the drummer. but no one knew it ex-
cept the tenderfoot. and he DESTROYED
all evidence by his own shooting. The
crowd took it that the cowboy had
missed and raised laugh on him. and
when he straddled his cayuse and Ioped

Tho Gnzette gives only one reason
why the bill to reduce the interest op

While that reason should he enough
to defeat it, there are others. The
law as it is now WAS passed for the
benefit nt the st0ckmen Of tho State
AMI was passed exactly as they want

the best lands were taken up md are
now hell by residents and foreign
syndinatea. When they bought this
land Of the Slate, they eigned con
tracts to pay interest on the deferred
payments mt the rate of elk per cent
per annum. II they have bought
more land than they can pay the
agreed rate OF interest upon, it is
difficult to see why the State should
reduce the interest in order to assist
them to hold all the land they have
purchased. 4 common sense view Of
the matter wonld be for them to for
felt the land. Tins OF course would
work hardship upon those who had
to forfeit the land, but it would Ger
