En.iOying Good Times.

F. A. Beley returned last Saturday
from the eastern part of the State, where
he had been visiting relatives at Big
Timber and Livingston. His brother
Louis who resided here for number of
years, is now located at Big Timber,
where he has charge of the boltling and
liqnor establishment of their older
brother. Mr. Beley says that the Sec
ton he visited is very prosperous, money
is easy and great many new buildings
are going up. At Big Timber several
new and elegant business blocks are in
course of construction; everything is
lively and business is good. All have
apparently plenty of money. and the
warehouses are stored full o. wool. much
of Which is being held for still higher
prices. Livingston is another city where
things are booming and considerable
building is going on at that place. From
all Mr.. Beley could learn the entire east
ern part of the state is experiencing
times equally as good as the two cities
visited. and everybody is happy and
pleased.

seeing in the far north.
Mrs. Durand mentioned notable
little incident that happened ON the trip
occasioned by two deer seen swimming
in the water some distance from the
boat. II was early in the morning and
caused quite commotion. The steamer
was brought to halt and boat
lowered in order to capture the deer.
They did not appear frightened and the
sailors had no difficulty in catching
them. They were hoisted on deck and
became the pets of the passengers.
Mrs. Durand was in her stateroom when
she heard the stir and scramble for the
deck, and not having yet fully forgotten
the narrow escape she had in Puget
sound recently (when the Glenogle ran
into the City Of kingston she lost no
time in getting on deck, only to find
that the stop was made for the purpose
of catching the deer. She was offered
one Of the animals by the captain of the
steamer, but as they We're no different
from those already on the Durand
ranch, and the expense of bringing one
here would have been considerable, she
declined the gift.

husbands business interests in Montana

Mrs. Frank Durand Relates Some Of Her
Experiences on Her Recent Journey.
Mrs Frank Durand returned last week
from a trip to Alaska, where her hus-
band is engaged in freighting. Mrs.
Durand informs us that she did not see
Mr. Durand on this visit. She expected
to meet him at Skagway, but when she
arrived at that point she learned that
he had already departed with his freight
ing outfit for the interior on his way to
Dawson City. and not feeling able to
undergo the hardships attendant to an
overland journey to the Klondike me-
trOpOlis she concluded to return home,
Mrs. Durand states that her husband
met with a number of reverses this
summer, losing scOw ON the Yukon
river at point known as Five Fin
gers The Five Finger rapids are
much dreaded by all who have occasion
to go down the Yukon in boats. The
river divides into five branches, only
one Of which is comparatively safe for
navigation. The men in charge of Mr..
Durand's boat took the wrong channel
and the boat was wrecked on the rocks
and the cargo, consisting of hay and
grain valued at about $16, 900, was lost
in the treacherOus stream
Mrs. Durand reports having had
most pleasant journey and describes
the scenery along the coast between
Vancouver and Skagwav as beautiful
beyond realization. The coast is with
in sight of the steamer all the way and
the trip is one of much interest. On
the steamer which brought Mrs. Durand
from Skagway were several pleasure

THE STATES sUHOO. s
From the Camden New Era.

From the Camden New Era.
The subject of the education of the
masses of the people has actually found
recognition in Alabama. Up to this time
we have all felt that the public schools
were more of a hurt than a help to the
real education of the boys and girls of the
state. Three months in school to a very
poor and incompetent teacher such as
could be gotten to teach a free school"
for the public money, was very often good
for nothing but to soothe the mind of
shiftess parents and make them feel that
their children were getting enough of
books to get along The result has been
a great apathy on the part of the people
who ought to want and claim the educa-
ton. 1t has served the purpose Of fosting
upon the people of Alabama the most
chaotic and disorderly school system that
the sun shines on. A single community will
some times be cut up into a number of lit
frivolous facts. Every little bunch must
have its own school and every sort of
teacher in the neighborhood in lieu of
something better to do rushes into the
calling of teacher and trusts to getting a
little of the public money Such a school
system is ruinous, and it's ultimate ex-
preston is the little side schools, where
there is no esprit de corps, and no method
and little merit. II the principal of public
education is to be maintained at all, it
ought to be by adequate provision for the
schools of the children everywhere. We do
not believe in special privileges to a few
while there are the many who really need
the benefit of simple and free tuition. 1t
ought to mean the real teaching of hun
dreds of children scattered over Alabama
not able to educate themselves. We are
glad to signify our hearty approval of the
legislative action all the time looking to-
ward better education. The one mill tax
and the increase of 500 900 in the appropria-
ton signalizes victory. That means the
uplifting of the poor. Alabama is to be
congratulated, too, upon her great schools
for college and university work. There is
one foolish fad of Alabama in education
and it must be for political reasons. That
is the appropriation of thousands every
year to run cheap grade local free schools
in many localities calling themselves COL
leges, and accessible to only the more
able.

American citizen, and think that would
be justified in taking the lives of John
Allen, General Henderson and number OF
other eminent citizens, but have decided
to spare them. Friday night late, or rather
early Saturday morning, / retired to the
cloakroom and, thowing myself down on
sofa, proceeded to take a nap. Presently
l was rudely awakened by a band of
wretches who surrounded my couch and
sang at the top of their voices song the
point of which was that there was hole
somewhere down at the bottom of the sea.
Henderson was very eloquent on the SUD-
ject, and added several verses
of his own manufacture to prove
beyond doubt the contention
that there was a hole at the bottom
of the aforesaid sea. Well, these fellows
dragged me down stairs and basket OF
champagne was produced. 1t came out
before the contents of the basket had been
demolished that 1 had been the innocent
means of winning the wine for the crowd.
1t seems that Henderson and Allen Il shall
never forgive them) wagered basket OF
champagne with another crowd that l was
the champion snorer of the house. L Go
not know who was my opponent, but the
prize was awarded to me offband the mo-
ment the party entered the cloakroom
where 1 was taking a nap. OF course II
was base SANDER, as l was never known
to snore in my life

The Notch in Piu Iron,

Foundries that have cupoas forty inches
In the clear inside can use a pig of iron
as it is cast, but smaller cupolas cannot;
and there are many of the smaller class in
the country. These foundries ask that pigs
be cast with a notch, thus enabling the
small foundries to readily break iron into
pieces that would fit the size of their
cupolas.
This request seems reasonable enough,
but as matter of fact it involves the use
of pig iron moulds. Such moulds are COM
ing into use, and when they do notches can
be readily formed in pigs In the coarse sand
of the floor of the cast-room, notches are
impossible. The pushing iron would break
down any such attempt. finer sand
would be open to many objections and
altogether it has been decided that notches
must be deferred until moulds of some
kind are introduced. The length of the pig
is the outcome of long experience and the
small foundryman will have to devise plans
for breaking pig

HORSE MEAT AS FOOD

New York Letter in Pittsburg Dispatch.
Horse meat by the pound That is what
New York is coming to, and juicy porter
Eastside cafes that have been cut from
the loins of young western colts. 1t seems
incredible, but the board of health listened
to the application of the representative
of the Medora company, of Medora, N. D.,
for permission to establish horse meat
depots throughout this city. This company
declares that 1t proposes to offer for sale
only the meat of young horses, such as
have never been in harness Horse meat
of this kind, it declares, is as palatable as
the beef of cattle, and is cheaper and fully
as wholesome-even better than the article
of beef supplied by the western houses.
The Medora company is said to have on
its range in Dakota $1,000 head of young
horses. Porterhouse horse steaks will be
sold as low as cents a pound and chuck
steaks and stew meat at cents pound.
The purpose of the company is to cater
especially to the foreign quarters of the
accustomed to the use of horse meat on the
other side of the Atlantic There is a
strong probability that the application of
the horse meat company will be granted.
Should this be the case 1t will only be a
question of short time until this variety
of food will be palmed off on the unsus-
pecting in the uptown cafes. The meat, if
prepared by a skillful French chef, can be
made to appear and taste SO much like
young beef that 1t will require a con-
noisseur to tell the difference.
