4 Great Mineral Find.

The reported discovery on Mad river,
in the state of Washington. of a great
ledge of remarkably rich platinum ore
is a matter of much interest 10 the sci
entific world, especially as this metal
has never been counted among our
economic products. Years ago small
quantities were found at P~lattsburg.
New York and Port Orchard, Ore, but
in neither place were there indica-
tions of paying deposits, and in 1897
the entire product of the United States
was only $50 ounces. The great bulk of
the worlds supply comes from the
western slope of the Ural mountains in
Russia. Platinum has a steel gray
color, and derives its great commercial
value from its infusibility in the most
intense heat and its ~inSulubili;y under
extreme conditions. ltis used by chem
lists, jewelers. and manufacturers CT in
candescent electric lights and for many
other purposes requiring Il wire that
will resist intense heat. Commercially,
it is worth about SIS per troy ounce

HIGH WAFER.
Streams Swollen BY the..s'Spring IhaN
Delay Travel and lnjure Bridges.

Lewistown was water-bOund for a
few days, and Mondayit appeared as
though all communication with the
outside, except by wire, had been cut
off. Ross Fork was the first to be-
come abnormally swollen on account
of the spring thaw, and when parties
attempted q crossing of this stream,
on the Philbrook road, the water
was found to be nearly four feet deep
for a distance of some forty feet and
running very swiftly. The stage
driver who reached here Sunday with
the Great Falls mail had wisely
turned northward and crossed the
Judith at Powell's, thereby avoiding
the Fork. When the gentlemen re-
turned IRON the funeral OF John Raw,
Monday afternoon, they reported the
approach to the Powell bridge par
TALLY gone and that it was unsafe to
attempt a crossing there; Postmas-
ter Stephens said he had crossed on
the back Of one Of the horses and the
buggy had been pulled over Dy a
horseman. The Maiden coach did
not arrive Monday, being unable to
get through the canyon on the Gilt
Edge road. There also was a report
that the bridge over Warm Spring
creek. on the Benton road, had gone
out and that the crossing ON Ross
Fork, on the Billings road, was I'M
safe, but both Of these proved ground
less, and the coaches from Benton
and Billings were not unduly de-
layed. Manager Mears of the Great
Falls line has been at Philbrook for
the past ten days and is giving his
attention to the prompt forwarding
OF the mails. A part OF a mail ar
rived yesterday afternoon, the driver
having come down from Philbrook
to Powell's the day previous and
crossed early Tuesday morning, be-
fore the night'schill hadlosti It's effect.
County Surveyor Stafford went out
that way yesterday and will take
immediate steps to provide a safe
road for travel.

Writing Under Difficulties.

Mrs. l.. X. Cheadle received IA letter
from her husband last week, dated
February D. MIR. Cheadle's writing
stationery consisted OF a leaf torn
from the records found in the tele-
graph office in the railroad station
at Caloocan, and was secured by his
tent mate. Ii Is n sheet about l0Xl5
inches and written full on both sides.
Mr.. Cheadle wrote while sitting in
the trench with a blanket spread
across his knees and with his Spring
field rifle by his side, a Filipino bullet
whizzing by occasionally to accelerate
his movements. 1t was thought that
Mr. Cheadle, being in thecommissary
department, was comparatively safe
from Filipino bullets, but it seems he
has been ON the firing line with his
gun ever since hostiliteis began. He
says the message sent by him, bear
ing the news of the death of Mayer
sick and Hall, cost $3.50 in Ameri-
can money, the expense being met by
contributions by the boys Of Com
pany l. Mr.. Cheadle speaks highly
of the bravery Of his comrades and
says nearly all of them arein splendid
health. He thinks he killed a Filipino,
as one upon which he took deliberate
aim fell at the report of his gun. AS
the letter was written over a month
ago, the boys have seen some hot
fighting since, and on their return
home will have many interesting ex-
periences to relate.

Pure, Wholesome Water.

Water is one OF the primary wants
OF human life, no less essential than
air or food, hence the strong interest
attached to the means of its supply.
In the earliest records of civilization
we read Of the digging of wells, but
in those days very little, II anything,
was known about the nature Of
water, and the means OF getting a
supply were of the crudest nature.
In fact, it is only within the last
century that the world has known
what water is, and 1t is compare
lively but a short time since
machinery for getting "A supply of
PURE water at a low cost has been
perfected. 1t il almost universally
believed that every drop Of water
TEENS WITH LIFE. This is a mistake;
the presence Of living creatures, dis
cernible either by the naked eye OF
microscope, is a proof of MPURITy
and proves it unfit for the needs of
the human family.
Hence it follows that to have a
supply OF pure, wholesome water we
must have a never-failing spring
gushing from the rock, or where
nature has failed to give these life
giving fountains, wemust DRIVE INTO
THE ROCK until wecome to this never
failing supply, thus securing an abso-
lutely pure compound OF oxygen and
hydrogen, or pure water, FREE FROM
ALL DIsEAsE-GENERATING GERMS.
1t is well known that by drilling,
pure water a be found in all por-
lions Of the world, and at the exact
spot where wanted, even in thegreat
deserts.

MRS. CoADY's BARTENDER.
Tim Sweeney Warned by Justice
Anderson.

Tim Sweeney, the bartender at the
Hibernia Hotel on Front street, had
trouble with the proprietress, Mrs.
Coady, on Tuesday. She accused him
of having appropriated $40 to his own
use, and the sport was so exciting that
Tim was arrested and lodged in Jail,
though the officers doubted that the
woman would make complaint against
him.
Tim was before Justice Anderson
yesterday morning. There was, as ex-
pected, no complaint ON file against
him, but the Justice had had expert
ence with Mrs. Coady and her bar
tender before, and the result was that
the discharge Tim was looking for did
not come.
On the contrary, Judge Anderson told
him he was tired Of the complaints laid
against him. You'd better leave town
pretty quick, or get away from that
house." said the Judge. "I'll not dis
charge you, but I'll let you go, and if
l hear of any more trouble you will be
brought in and tried and it may go
hard with YOU Tim went.
