it. Every employe is now carefully
searched and forced to take Turkish
bath before leaving the Premises.

"Yes, we have connected a powerful

BOY MEETSDEATH

INJURED WHILE RIDING.
LARSON CASE IS DISMISSED.
Mr.. Kertz of Nampa, Idaho, Spends
Sunday in Anaconda-Alleged
Thieves Caught.

Anaconda. Nov. oS.-A frightful acci-
dent occurred at noon yesterday to Roy
Pennington, the 1S-year-o,d son of Nor
time Pennington. which resulted In his
death at $3.50 o'clock this morning.
The father of the unfortunate lad is
employed as foreman of the Montana
Meat company and resides in one of the
company's buildings east of the new
Smelter works.
From the story related by friend of
the bereaved family 1t seems that Roy
put a saddle on his pony and went to
round up some horses in the pasture.
The little fellow was gone longer than
usual and fearing that something Nigh.
have happened one of the household
went to an upper window from which a
good view of the field could be secured.
From there the pony could be seen with
the saddle turned. A search was insti-
tuted and the boy was found in an un-
conscious condition on the ground. He
had evidently lost his balance when the
saddle turned. and. his foot catching in
the stirrup, he was dragged for some
distance. He was taken into the house
where the best medical attendance was
furnished but he never regained con-
scousness. The Penningtons are we'll
known in Anaconda, having resided here
the greater part of the past five years.
The family formerly resided in Portland.
Ore. The fact that Roy was the only
child makes the home more sad and the
grief of the parents more difficult to
bear.

HEROIC FATHER
Decided to Save Trainload Of People
At Awful Cost.

The most thrilling tale of Spartan
courage, related in the close of this
century, is reported from England.
There are parts of Lancashire so much
intersected by railways that each
town looks on the map like spider in
the midst of web. 1t was on one of
these lines that the box of Signalman
Frank Davis was situated. Davis
was a homely fellow, and it required
all his wits, for there was level
crossing just near him. One day two
weeks ago, sunny, bright-eyed little
girl Of 8 years wandered into her
fathers cabin. A few CHEEKY words
to her and then duty. on the child
wandered to- the banks Of the deep
and rapid stream that runs alongside
the line, and bends under a bridge
ahead Of the level crossing.
The signalman's telegraph tinkled
out that the express had rushed
through the station couple Of miles
off. His practical ear could detect
the distant rumble. He must at once
shut back the heavy level-crossing
gates that now, a double barrier,
crossed the line. At that moment
Davis heard piercing shrek. His
child was slipping into the stream.
The express was close at hand, and
would dash through the crossing
gates. To save 200 lives or one-his
own flesh and blood? With touch
the wretched man turned the danger
signal against the oncoming train; but
that it could stop before dashing itself
against the gates was an impossible
ity. An awful calmness came for an
instant over the man. He turned his
face from the death-stream and ma
nipulated the levers that moved the
gates. They swung back as the ex-
press, rocking and swinging fright
fully through the sudden brake
pressure, shot through. The whole
train seemed to stagger as it came to
a stand on the bridge. As the father,
for a moment a maniac, turned to the
stream, he saw the engine fireman
spring from the bridge parapet into
the stream. AS every door of the
train seemed to simultaneously burst
open, pouring out streams of white
faced people, the father saw black
mass OF soddened rags climb up the
line with a bundle of white clothes
held to his bosom. His child wai
saved, but the father bids fair to be
come a mental wreck and a pensionei
upon the railroad company.

ALL this talk about recognizing
the Democratic party is really anus
ing. The Democratic party is already
well organized. Look at the magnifi-
cent vote we polled throughout this
country by this grand old party.
Some of the policies Of the party may
be changed, as there will likely be
new issues for 1902 and 1904, but one
thing is certain: the platform will be
made and the leaders named by Dem
ocrats who stayed with the party in
1896 and 1900, No outsiders will die
tate the principles or the leaders Of the
Democratic party. If those who left
the party in 1895 want to come back
home every Democrat will welcome
them and will be glad to have their
assistance in the election OF the ticket;
but the policies will be formulated
and the leaders named by the regular
organized Democracy as 1t stands to
day.
