Marcus DAILY Dead.

Marcus DAILY we'll known in Montana
as the manager of the Anaconda pro-
perties and as the leader of the anti
Clark faction in democratic politics, died
at the Hotel Netherlands in New York
last NJ ,nday morning from Bright's dis
ease and heart trouble. Referring :,
Mr.. Days career, the Great Falls Tri-
bune says: t
Marcus DAILY was born in the north of
Ireland in 1912 aud came to the United
States in 1859. He landed at New York
and was engaged there, for a few years,
at whatever employment he could secure,
principally as a dock hand.
About 1866 he started west, aud he
spent tile next ten years in the mining
camps of California, Nevada and Utah,
and finally entered the employ of Walker
Bros. of Salt Lake, who sent him to
Butte, as general manager of the Alice
silver mine, in which position he re-
mai ned tor several years. Several years
before, he had won the friendship of
Messrs. Haggin, Hearst, Tevis and other
wealthy mining men, and when it be-
came apparent that a rail road was to
enter Butte, Mr.. Daily turned his atten-
ton to copper mines, and with the finan-
clal assistance of Haggin, Hearst and
others, he bought the Anaconda mine, in
Butte, and rapidly developed it and
acquired the adjoining properties which
now constitute the Anaconda group. He
was made manager of the mines, in which
he had a three-eighths interest. About
II years ago he located the An aconda
smelters at Anaconda and practically
founded that tt wn. In 1875, he built IT,
Butte, Anaconda and Pacific railwa y
He also caused the Anaconda company
to inve it in timber and coal mines in
various parts of the STATE.
A little more than a year ago, Mr.
Daily sold his interests in the Anaconda
company to the Amal3amated Copper
Co., of which he was elected president
He had great plans for further develop
ment of the mines of Butte, but ill healtl
had prevented his taking an active par
in the affairs of the company, and he hat
been in Montana very little in the last L
months.
His chief personal investment was hi
great farm near Hamilton, where h
bred many famous race horses, including
Tammany.
In politics, Mr.. DAILY took an activ
interest in the last IA years, generall
supporting the democratic ticket. 1
1894, he was at the head of those VII
sought to have Anaconda made the stat
capital.
Mr.. DAILY, although born a Roma
l Catholic, had of late years generally al
tended the Episcopal church, with hi
, family. He was a Mason of high ran |
but belonged to no other secret order.

Has Faith In CrangevilIe.

w. NJ. Jack left for his home in
Los Angeles on Thursday morning
last. He has been here for the
past three weeks looking into his
investments in growing Grange
vile and visiting his son, J. NJ.
Jack, and Rudolph Bertsch, both
of whom are interested with him
in the hardware firm Of w. M.
Jack & Co., limited. Mr.. Jack is
we'll pleased with tn. future out
look of Grangeville and is showing
his faith by his works. He will
stop in Spokane and Portland and
purchase goods for the hardware
company as well as for the Grange
vile water works, of which he is
sole owner, and upon which he
will make q great many impor tant
improvements during the coming
season. These improvements in
clude the putting in OF an addi-
tional 1000 feet of pipe for the pur-
pose Of bringing in another supply
OF water to the present spring from
which the town now derives it's
present supply, and when COM
pleted the additional improvements
will be sufficient to supply q popu-
latiOn of 10000, and he hopes at
least to zee one-half of this number
locaJed here upon his next visit to
Grangeville. He il also firmly
fixed in the opinion that he will be
able to ride into the town on a
Pullman car when he comes up to
visit us next summer.
Mr.. Jack intends making his
hardware firm in Grangeville fully
equal to the large business he had
in Butte, Montana, which was the
largest Of it's kind in that state.
He il we'll known in the west, and
also as a pioneer of Idaho, having
mined near Idaho City in 1862.
Mr.. Jack was also highly i'm
pressed with the showing made by
the business men of Grahgeville in
the matter OF carrying such large
and we'll selected stock OF goods.
The prices here alwaaa opened his
eyes to the fact that goods sell
cheaper in Grangeville than they
do in much larger cities.

TWO ANCIENT ARABIAN WELLS
They Furnish Drink to the Thirsty Tray.
 elers Through Desert sands.

In northwestern Arabia there is a well of the purest water, perpetual in its supply, that has existed for ages. The Arabs claim it was dug by the early Islamites Whoever dug it must have expended great labor upon it, foI it is five feet in diameter at the top and gradually enlarges until it reaches the water, at depth of nearly 200 feet. It is lined with hewn stone throughout. However, the host re- markable we'll in the world is Joseph's we'll, at Cairo, Egypt. It's shaft was exeavated through solid rock to depth of 165 feet, at which depth it was enlarged on one side to form a chamber, in the bottom of which a reservoir was made immediately un- der the shaft At one side of this reservoir another shaft was exeayated through rock to a bed of gravel, where water was found The lower shaft was 130 feet deep, making the total depth 295 feet. The upper shaft was rectangular, 24x18 feet. The lower shaft was 15x9 feet. Winding around the well a spiral passageway 6 feet i inches wide by feet inches high was cut with great care from the sur face of the ground down to the cham Der. Between the well and the pas sageway a wall of rock was left. Horses and oxen descended the pas sageway to the chamber, where they propelled machinery to raise the water in pots attached to chain from the lower shaft to the reservoir in the chamber and it was again raised by machinery operated by power on the surface. In the lower shaft path was cut in it's side so that descent could be made to the water. There was no wall between the path and the we'll. This work is said to have been constructed by Seladin, who lived in the years 1137 to 1199. Some writers do not mention this, and say that the date of the construction is lost in an- tiquity.

Pussy Seemed to Be a Hoodoo.

If ever the tug Lorne picks up an
other derelict, and there happens to be
a black cat on the abandoned vessel,
the chances are the feline will be al
lowed to remain, for the cat taken from
the wreck Of the Jane A. Falkenburg
seems to have been a hoodoo of the
most pronounced type. Storms followed
the tug all the while the cat was on
board, and many other things have
transpired on the tug that were GER
tainly not to the increased benefit Of
those on the vessel. That was because
of the hoodoo brought from the
wrecked barkentine. said some, and
when Capt. Locke shipped the feline to
her little mistress at San Francisco by
the Walla Walla on her last trip down
from here 1t was thought that all the
trouble was ended; but no-two of the
officers Of the tug are now no longer
connected with the vessel and other
things happened. The steamer carrying
the cat to San Francisco broke down
when off the entrance to the Golden
Gate, and had to be towed into port. AS
will be remembered, the cat was taken
from the wreck by the Walla Walla
when that vessel rescued the ship
wrecked men, but jumped into the sea,
and swan back to the wreck, and re-
manned on board until the tug found

A WONDERFUL TOP.
It Is Capable Of Spinning More Than
Forty-three Minutes.

marvellous top, capable of spinning
forty-three and one-half minutes and
then remaining erect and still, has been
constructed by Prof. Charles Jacobus
for many years superintendent OF the
New Brunswick, N. j., public schools,
but now Of Springfield, Mass. The In
ventor OF this top guards 1t carefully
and never allows it to pass out Of his
hands. He has spun it scores Of times
before scientists In New York, Phila-
delphia and many other cities. He
spun 1t short time ago before the
Boston Society of Civil Engineers, who
devoted one hour to watching 1t. The
inventor calls 1t scientific top, and
when 1t Is not in use he locks it up in
case and carries the key with him.
The wonderful top Is made of bronze
and looks like the small sized humming
top the boys buy in the stores for five
cents. 1t was constructed under the
direction Of Prof. Jacobus, who had
the pieces made by several different
mechanics. The top Is spun by a
string. and the inventor always spins
1t on a plate. He has a small piece of
bronze, which he places over the upper
end Of the rod while he winds the cord
around the same, as is done In a hum
ming top: then he places 1t on the
plate, holds 1t firmly by the little
bronze attachment at the head and
pulls the string. AS the string leaves
the top he removes the attachment
suddenly and the top spins on.
The point Of the top, upon which 1t
spins, is about as large as the head Of
a small needle, and 1t Is so true and
delicate that the resistance is kept at a
minimum. The inside of the top Is SO
balanced that when the top ceases to
revolve it will remain erect, unless II
is Jared. The rod that runs through
the centre Is about an eighth of an
inch in diameter and five inches from
the sharp point on the bottom to the
small cap on the head. The top body
Is three inches in diameter
The whole secret Of the top Is be-
lieved to be in the perfect balance and
the weights inside OF the bronze body.
The entire top weighs about four
ounces, and Is wound with about ten
inches of string.
When Prof. Jacobus lectures before
schools on educational institutions he
has habit Of spinning the top and
using 1t 20 illustrate the beauty Of a
symmetrtcaily developed life.

Whichever way the Leather dealing
went the fact that he has entered the
"Street" marks the beginning In the
career Of man whom the veterans
from now on will watch, with due re-
gard for his millions and the way they
will influence the market.
Mr.. Rockefeller was elected a d.
rector Of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western Railroad Feb. q, 1899.
The fact was chronicled as his launch
ing into business.
Rockefeller was prepared for college
by private tutors. He entered Brown
University when seventeen years old,
and graduated with honors and with
out a single escapade during his course.
His habits are extremely simple, and
he uses neither tobacco nor alcoholic
liquors.
At college he joined Alpha Delta Phi,
ter fraternities. In athletic sports he
was mild enthusiast, playing with the
scrub" at football and acting as treas
urer Of the varsity team.
He entered his fathers Office imme-
diately after his graduation two years
ago. Here he served the apprentice
snip IOF lne WOFk DelOIc IiIIl ne dp~
piled himself assiduously and gained
the confidence Of his father. With his
election as q railroad director came a
secretary and clerk. He now has a
private Office with his father on the
fourteenth floor of the Standard OIL
Company building, on lower Broadway.
Principally at 10 o'clock he appears
at the office. Shortly before o'clock
he lunches at Broadway cafe and re-
turns to his desk and works until 3
or 4 o'clock. He is easily accessible to
any one with legitimate reason for TAX
ing up his time But he dislikes to be
annoyed for trivial reasons, as he Is a
hard worker.
He has never been on the floor Of the
"Change," because he Is not men,
Der, although his father and Uncle Will
liam are the possessors of seats. He
confines his business to the private
transaction Of his father and himself
and is not personally interested in
Standard Oil, 1t Is said.
Few are the hours that he spends
away from business or his home, No.
West Fifty-fourth street. He plays
moderately we'll on the violin. Society
has never claimed him simply because
he refuses to be drawn into social life.
He Is somewhat of an equestrian, pre-
fering morning rides in the Park.
His religious training was most care
full, and. as his father did formerly,
so he now teaches a class of boys In
