AN lhHUMAN MOTHER.
She Leaves Her Newborn Babe in an
Ash Barrel


Some inhuman mother, whose iden-
tity the police have been unable to dis
cover, left newly-born infant in an
ASH barrel at the corner Of Platinum
and Wyoming streets some time yes
terday morning, to be cared for by
charity, if found in time; if not, t.
freeze in the wintry air. Fortunately
the child was discovered in time and is
now being cared for at the Associated
Charities home.
1t was about half-past II o'clock yes
terday forenoon that Mrs. NJ A. Too,e,
proprietress of the lodging house on
the second floor Of the Hartman block.
at Platinum and Wyoming had occa-
sion to go down stairs for coal At the
rear of the building stands an old ASH
barrel partly filled with ashes. AS she
passed the barrel Mrs. Toole noticed
what appeared to be a bundle of old
wooden clothes. On a second glance she
observed the foot of a baby protruding
from the bundle Her first thought was
OF an 1nfantlcide and she was on the
point of turning about to send for the
coroner when the bundle moved and
she knew the baby was alive Mrs Toole
at once carried the founding upstairs
and sent for some neighhoring women.
who came and cared for it while she
FASTENED to police headquarters and re-
ported to Captain Dawson, acting chief
in the absence of Chief Mulholland.
Captain Dawson inquired into the case
and concluded the best thing to do was
to call on the Associated Charities,
which he did, and Vice President Mrs.
John Noyes gave orders to have a car
riage called and the child taken TO the
home of the association in Nevada ave-
nue..
How long the child had been where
it was found could not be told but must
have been some time during the morn
ing hours, as it must have frozen to
death in the piercing cold of yesterday
morning had it lain in the open air long,
wrapped, as ii was. only in few wooden
rags, and in just the condition in which
it was born. 1t could not, from all an
pearances, have been more than IL
hours old when found
A doctor was called and though II
was feared the child had lain so long
in the cold without ordinary care that
it could not be revived, energetic work
infused life into it, and last evening it
was thought to be all right.
Captain Dawson devoted himself dur
ing the day to an effort to seek out the
guilty mother, but without success. Sus-
picon was directed toward one woman
and DR.. Sheeran was sent fer TO ascer-
tain if she could have been the mother
He reported that she was not. No fur
Their clue was obtained.

PALM SUNDAY SERVICES
Beautiful Ceremonies in the Cath
Ole Church.
DISTRIBUTION OF PALMS
The Occasion Appropriately Observed at
the Episcopal Church-Feast of the
Passover Begins This Week.
Preparing for Easter.

Yesterday was Palm Sunday and the
religious population observed the day
according to custom. Rev. S. c. Black
iston of the Episcopal church preach
ed an appropriate sermon yesterday
morning, when the customary palm
services We're held. There were no
palms distributed, however, in this
church.
In the Catholic church at II o'clock
the ceremony was characterized by a
striking ceremonial at the beginning
of high mass. Branches of palms We're
laid in front of the high altar, the
anthem "Hosanna" was sung by the
choir the collect said by Father De
Sere, the celebrant and lessons from
Exodus and Matthew sung by the sub
deacon and deacon, respectively. The
branches of palm which are held to
symbolic victory over the prince of
death. and the coming of spiritual
JUNCTION. We're then blessed with prayer
and aspersion. whereupon Father De
Sere conducted the distribution of
the palms among the assembly, who re-
ceived them kneeling. During the dis
tributions appropriate antiphons We're
sung. Then followed high mass, When
all held the palms in their hands dur
ing the singing of the Passion. Next
Thursday will begin the regular holy
week services in the Catholic churches
of the city, continuing for three days.
This is also the season of the feast
of the passover, observed by the Jew
ish and other denominations. To the
Jewish world this feast is one of the
most important days concentrated by
biblical history. The feast, which com
memorates the delivery of the Jews
from Egypt, is significant, not only
for the Jews, but for the world at large,
for" says a noted divine, had not
the Jews been emancipated from Egyp-
tian bondage and had not the Egyptian
yoke been thrown off. the sweet song
of liberty would. perhaps, not now be
heard emanating from the lips of hui
mainly" The feast is celebrated on
the 18th day of Nissan, the first month
of the Jewish calendar, the 25th OF
March. The Bible prohibits the Israel
ties from eating leaven bread for the
seven days following the feast, in re-
membrance Of the time when their an
cestors were driven by the Egyptians
from the land.
Easter comes next Sunday. when spe-
cial services and the usual splendid
singing of Butte's famous choirs vii
| be enjoyed.

Passing Politics.

When Mayor Harrington assumed
office the city of Butte was submerged
in mud The mud ran up on the side
walks and into cellars. There was a
general demand to clean UP. The peo-
pie of Butte had come to realize that
Butte was no longer a mining camp,
but had become a city. The progress
sive people of the town felt that the
city must be improved, that the muddy
streets and filthy alleys should disap

early days of Butte. This was the
spirit shown by the people of Butte

Thompson.
In accordance with this spirit. Mayor
Harrington, on assuming office, imme-
diately proceeded to make a city out
of Butte. The result has been marked
and far more has been done the past
two years for municipal Improvement
than in any other administration. 1t
will be 20 years the 18th of April since
Butte became incorporated. During
these 20 years IS miles of sewers have
been constructed. OF these IS miles. of
sewers, six miles have been constructed
during the Harrington administration.
Streets have been graded in all parts
of town. Two years ago the city south
of Mercury street was a series of holes
in the ground, old prospect holes
These holes have been filled, streets have
been opened up and graded and now
dwellings fill all that space. All the
paving has been done during the Har-
rington administration

So under Harrington the sum of $246,-
1O0.94 has been expended for public i'm
provements of permanent character,
while under Thompson the total was
only s3S,316.75. That is a contrast, in
deed! With Thompson as mayor, Butte
stood still. Under Harrington it has
developed into a city. Stagnation was
ministration, progress has been the
characteristic of the Harrington admin
istration. The difference is parallel to
the difference between the frame shacks
of West Park street and the new Hen
messy building.
Mayor Thompson sole idea was to
effect a reduction in the city's indebt-

much better than Mr.. Harrington, who
accomplished more in the way of public
improvements than was accomplished
by any preceding mayor. The total

TEA-DRINKING IN RUSSIA.
The Poor Use ''Bricks;'' the Rich a
Leaf Sometimes Costing
S12 n Pound.

Among the few things for which Rus
sit deservedly enjoys a creditable and
universalrepUtatiOn Russian tea doubt
less occupies a prominent place, both
on account Of its quality and mode of
preparation and consumption.
In the first place, there is no such
thing as Russian tea IN the literal sense
Of the word. It is entirely an article i'm
ported from China. Tea in Russia is
very dear, but this is due TO the heavy
expenses Of transport and custom du-
ties. The Russians drink enormous
quantities Of tea, sufficient TO frighten
any Englishman.
The poor peOple-and, alas! the Rus
sian people are the poorest in existence
use the sO-called ''brick'tea. This is
the cheapest sort, being mixed with the
stems, and compressed by some adhe-
sive gum into dry cakes Of various sizes,
resembling in its appearance plug"
tobacco.
This tea, which would probably prove
poisonous 70 anyone else, is consumed
by the Russian vOrkingmen at the av-
erage rate Of about 20 stakans (Or tum-
blers) a day, the Russian stakan being
quite equal to five of the little thimbles
of cups used in England at afternoon
teas.
Among the middle and upper classes
tea at the price Of s1-25 or S1-5O per
pound (O.SO of the English pound avOir-
duPOis) is quite an ordinary thing.
There are choice sorts Of teas which
are sold even at 20 rubles per pound,
but Of these only a few leaves are used
10 add an extra delicious aroma TO the
ordinary tea.
There is no respectable" household
in Russia without one or more samO-
vars. The utensiI is turned out by the
million. The samOvar Is IN use three
or four times a day; in some houses,
indeed, It is kept boiling the whole day
long.
The samoan may be really termed
the Russian hearth and fireside. Around
IT the family and gUestsassemble,d drink
ing tea and chatting for hours. It's
steaming and cheerful humming are as
music TO the Russian ear, accustomed
as It Is to the sound from earliest child
