He Had Brooded Ovef7Financial
Troubles, hi.
FLEECED BY HIS PARTNERS
Who Assaulted Him in His Cabin.-
A Blow on the Head Affected
His Mind.

Mrs. Benjamin Salad, widow of the
Elk Park suicide arrived in the city last
evening, and is the guest of her friend
Mrs. r. Campani of West Park street.
Her story sheds some light on the causes
which led up to the tragedy. Salad was
a Swiss and had been a resident Of the
United States about twenty years. He
was a frugal laboring man and by close
economy, lard and constant work up to
two years G had managed to accumu-
late about 1900. He considered this
amount sufficient to justify him in send
ing for his wife, whom he had left in
Switzerland when he came to this coun-
try in search of fortune. This he did and
shortly after her coming he formed {
partnership with two men, whose object,
according to Mrs. Salad, was to fleece
him of his hard earned savings. And
this they succeeded in doing very effec-
lively. getting away with all of it about
a year ago. Then having no further use
for him they quarreled with him, beat
him until he was lnSenSlble and left him
alone in his cabin in Elk Park. For eight
days following the assault he was contin-
ed to his cabin, alone and unable to help
himself. During the melee he received a
blow on the head which, after he had re-
covered, seemed to affect his mind, and
the loss of his money changed him from
a cheerful man to a morose and melan-
choly one. He brooded over his losses con
stantly and about two weeks ago was
compelled to pay O bill contracted by his
partners. This increased his melancholia,
resulting in his self-destruction. He leaves
no children but his wife is in destitute cir
cumstances. The remains will be buried
tomorrow afternoon from Richards un-
dertaking rooms.

HONEY BEES FROM THE
PHILIPPINES

The department of agriculture will in
troduce into the United States the great
honey bees found in the Philippines.
These bees are twice as large as those of
this country, and produce five or six times
as much honey. They have extra long
tongues, and can reach the nectar in
many flowers that our own variety can
not. While this move will be Of a ma
terial benefit, it will not be any more so
than Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which
reaches and cures many ailments thai
other remedies fall short of. Among them
may be mentioned dyspepsia, indigestion.
b~iliousness, constipation, malaria, vast
ing diseases, and affections of the kidneys
and blood. We especially recommend the
Bitters to men and women whose nervous
systems are shattered.

A WARM NUMBER
Dramatic Order of the Knights
OF the KhOraSSan
TO BE INSTITUTED HERE
Tomorrow Night-- Ceremonies at the
Auditorium Followed by
Banquet.
TO BE INSTITUTED HERE

The Dramatic Order of the Knights OF
the Khorassan is the rather unique name
of a new organization which will be insti-
tuted in Butte tomorrow night. The cere-
monies will be held at the Auditorium, at
ter which the member and invited guests
will sit down to a swell banquet at the
McDermott hotel.
The order of the Knights of Khorassar
is to the Knights of Pythias what the
order of the Shriners is to the Masonic
fraternity. 1t was started a couple of
years ago in California and owing to the
fact that the order is adapted to bring out
a more harmonious arrangement of the
social relations of the members than can
be obtained otherwise, the order has had
a very rapid growth. Like the Shriners
it is of alleged Arabic origin, with all the
beautiful symbolism of the Orientals, in
which sheifs and camels n burning
sands prominently figure.
People who have passed through the or
deal say that the order is one of the hot
test in existence and for this reason the
limitations are generally conducted during
zero weather. In fact a refrlgeratlng
plant is included as one of the essential
articles of the paraphernalla and the
opening ode is''There Will be a Hot Time
etc." Only members of the Knights of
Pythias in good standing are eligible.
About 12o members will be initiated to-
morrow night and it is expected that large
delegations will be present from Helena,
Dillon, Deer Lodge and Anaconda.
The following are the officers of the new
lodge:
Imperial Nawab-Janes E. Gallagher
Royal Vizier-Carl Gallagher.
Grand Emir-James Atkins.
Mahedi-James Doull.
Venerable Sheik-Geo. Davies.
Secretary-A. N. Yoder.

"BURNS AND SCOTLAND YET"
SCOTCHMEN DO HOMAGE TO TIL
MEMORY OF THE PLOUGH
MAN POET.

The Sons of Aud Scotia last night fit
tingly celebrated the anniversary OF the
birth of their beloved poet, the immortal
Robert Burns. The celebration was held
in Scandal hall, and consisted of musical
and literary exercises, followed by a
banquet and ball. The attendance was
large and the enthusiasm with which
every reference to Burns was received
was ample proof that the ~ploughman-
poet had many admirers among the
throng.
An overture of Scottish airs by Olson's
orchestra preceded the welcome extended
the guests by w. b. McLaren, honored
chief of the Burns club. I'm Silent
Tread was rendered by a quartette COM
posed of Messrs. Carlisle, kroeger, JAN
reiss and Kroeger, and the singers were
compelled to respond to an encore. The
sailors hornpipe was danced with
rare grace by the Misses Leford. Miss
Emma Langston gave the audience an
elocutionary treat in "Travers' Ride"
The Rev. Mr.. Tonge of the Second Pres
byterian church delivered an interesting
address on the subject of "What Consti-
tuteS a Man.
Other numbers rendered were a waltz
song and chorus by Messrs. and Mes
danes Dawson and Macauley; THE Vag-
abond,' by Professor Carlisle; "Sandy's
Romance" by Miss Brebner; a cornet
duet, ny NltSSlS, dlu ptlllCS
and the highland fling and highland step
dancing by Miss May Tennie Mcdonald
and b. F. Thompson.
At the conclusion of the exercises a
banquet was served, after which
dancing was INDUCED in to a late hour
this morning.
Salt Lake Tribune: This 25th day of
January is almost a saints day to
Scotchmen. One hundred and forty
years ago today, on the banks of the
Ayr, a child was born in poverty; he
lived his brief life of 81 years in poverty;
not much of the grace of the schools was
given him; a few of the leaves Of the
book of knowledge We're opened to him;
his life was not faultless; he lived N OBJ
security; he did not even Know the innate
sovereignty of his own soul Whatever
his dreams were he never once believed
that anything he had ever written would
long survive him, but now after three
generations of men have lived and died
since he lived and died, in every civilized
land, as this anniversary comes around,
men stop to drop a flower upon his mem
DRY, and wherever a few of his country
men can be found, they are sure to meet
and recall his genius; to picture his
observation-disclosures, and to certify again
to the world how he
wrought in sad sincerity;
Himself from God he could not free;
He builded better than he knew"
Coupled with an acute brain, Robert
Burns had a heart that was great enough
to take in all humanity, and this love
for his fellowmen shine back from his
life and grows in radiance the more men
turn toward it.

Word has been received of the suicide
of an old-timer, John Mcclure, on the Big
Blackfoot in the vicinity of Lincoln. The
tragedy took place last Sunday morning
and was not discovered until some hour
later when Fred Long, who had started
out to hunt Mr.. Mcclure up found the
~lifeless body near his hay feeding corral
with his throat gashed from ear to ear.
MI. Mcclure was one of the Old-time resi-
dents of Montana, coming to this state
in early days, placer mining here and
there with varying fortune, leading the
wandering life of the gold digger of the
COS. All of the camps from Alder gulch
to Confederate claimed him as a resident
for short periods, but never for long, and
he finally drifted over the range to the
newly discovered diggings at Mcclellan
gulch, on a tributary stream OF the big
Blackfoot. Here he mined with indiffer-
ent success for some time, but finally
gave up the chase after golden fortune
and took up a ranch in the Blackfoot val
ley north of the old town of Lincoln, and
began the raising of cattle. He prosper
ed for several years, at times going back
to his former occupation of mining, just
to keep his hand in, as he expressed II.
Fortune smiled upon the ranchef ana
with his cattle he made quite a gOOdly
| sum. But even this did not satisfy the
old man; his accumulation of wealth
by this means being too slow for one Who
a made and spent so much as a miner.
So some time in the sos he sold off many
of his herd and departed into a mercan-
! tile business, locating and stocking a
store with a full line of these things most
needed in a ranching community. But
success did not follow in this line; Johnny
was of too liberal a nature to make such
a business pay, and the store was a tall-
ure. He at last was forced to give UP
this venture and again took to ranchlng'
but old age and the hardship and eH-
posture of early days had made OF the once
strong man almost a wreck, mentaily
and physically. His mind was KNOWN
for a long time to be unsettled, but as ne
was never violent he was allowed to i've
his lonely life in peace on his ranch, ms
weakness only showing itself in some OF
the peculiar schemes born OF his warped
brain. One of these was the Matching OF
fish. in itself commendable, but for when
he chose a spot full of alkall and Whert
the only water was so tainted with lhe
bitter stuff that even the cattle on lht
ranges Stunned the place.
