Open Air Cures Consumption.

SkSAA 3AAA AOo SS4oAAARsAVAs
DIR. w. P. Roberts. professor of china
tology of Durham Medical college,
Chicago, gave talk at the Boston
Young Mems Christian association up
on the effects of climate on those sffllct-
ed with consumption. DIR. Roberts,
who is hale and hearty at 60, declared
himself "hopeless consumptive" forty
years ago, He was saved, he said, by
going west and living in the open air.
He asserted that under proper climatic
conditions ninety per cent. of all cases
of consumption could be cured. He in
dorsed the theory of the late DR.. Bow
ditch, that consumption is caused by ex-
cess of moisture in the ground. Further
more, he maintained that most of the
so-called hopeless cases might be
cured simply by an open air life in
what he called the 'immune' locali-
ties. He represents Arizona and New
Mexico as the ideal localities for all the
year, though much larger extent of
territory in the same region is but
little inferior to the two states men
toned.
Several physicians In the audience
Joined In the discussion, and all appear
ed to agree that consumption is bred by
indoor life, and that the only cure is
SO far possible, reasonably laborious
out-of-door life. DIR. Roberts said that
at least half of the consumptives in
New England could be cured by going
into the Aroostook woods to work. He
described the circumstances IN several
apparently hopeless cases, one of them
that of man who was set to saving
wood in the open air, with an easy chair
near by in which he could rest when.
ever necessary. BY taking that exper-
ience as his cue, and continuing at out
door work, he became one of the most
rugged and healthy men in the COM
munity where he lived.

To him who stops to think about
God, as the Divine character and works
are suggested by the natural world,
surely our Fathers benevolence, watch
fulness and affectionate concern, not
merely for human life and growth but
also for the satisfaction of our aesthet.
ic nature, our love of the beautiful, are
revealed unmistakably. The God who
made the wondrous beauty of the
world cannot but be bene0cent and
loving. The God who clothed the
trees with their millions of radiant and
fragrant blossoms, who painted the
gorgeous sunsets which crown the
close of q summer day, and who has
made many of His revelations of
beauty none the less striking because
they are less obvious and are discovered
only by seeking, such God is worthy
of human devotion and service.
The impulse to praise God for His
wonderful works is as natural to men
now as it was to the Psslmist, and TO,
the same reason. 1t is only the per.
verted mind, warped for the time BY
disease or sorrow and with its thought
and sight misdirected. which fails tc
look up, as it were, instinctively, to the
Creator with Thanksgiving and exalta
tion when the natural world makes itt
appeal to his heart as the spring ex
pands into the early summer. 1t i.
easy to understand then how in ths
ages past men who knew little or moth
ing of God found themselves impellei
to worship nature. In worshiping ma
ture they were looking up through ma
ture to natures God, and he who tods,
fails tohear Gods voice, to see God'
hand, and to read something of God

The Folks We Used to Know.
Did you ever notice somehow,
AS the years g1 slidin' past,
That you git to lookin' BACKYARD
Sorter wistful lords the last?
And how them's ats now your neighbors
Don't stand ghost o. show
When you go comparin' of 'em
To the folks you used to know?

The fracases we've had,
Nur forty'leven other things
That made us ilghtin' mad.
But we've salted down the good 'uns,
And no matter wllur we 90,
There's none can "hold a candle"
To the folks wc used to know.

There want no better neighborhood-
If any one tuck sick
They'd come from oil directions,
Jist wade through rain ur snow.
To see how you was comm on
The folks we used to know.
An the vlttels that they'd fetch you!
Why, 'twould fairly make you laf.
You'd bin deader nur mackerel
If you'd only ct thehalf.
Put me in mino of fair-tlme
Ur some puryishun show.
To see 'em packln' In the truck
The folks we used to know,
My starsi but they were soshable.
Out there on the old State road,
An used to go ay-visiting'
Jist by the wagon-load.
They'd grin. shake hands, "Howdy,"
An"a as plain as preachin' show
They was tickled most to pieces
The folks we used to know,
They'd feed you on fried chicken.
The best I was in tile shop:
An they'd pile your plate with vittcls.
An yum! they wouldn't stop
Till they d made you most feel sneakin'
To see 1t loaded so,
Then say, Take holt an help yourself
The folks We used to know.
1--WE ain't.no quality" they'd say.
"We're only common folks"
An. then all hands would snicker,
An we'd fall to crackin' jokes.
An afore we hardly know'd it.
Why, 1t was time to go,
An we'd say, "Good-by; come over
To the folks we used to know.
Where air they all, 1 wonder
All these happy. old time folks.
That made this life worth llvin'
With their friendship an their Jokes?
Well, 1 ask for nothin better,

Than a ticket that will take mo

ELEGANT CHURCH EDIFICE,
The First Presbyterian Church Will
Be Reopened Next Sunday.

The people Of Butte are promised q
pleasant treat next Sunday at both morn
ing and evening service of the First
Presbyterian church located at the cor
er Of Broadway and Idaho streets, this
city.
The main audience of the church has
been closed for nearly month, during
which time Mr.. Schatzlein has had a
corps of artists at work decorating this
fine ROOM which has just been finished
and is certainly work of great credit to
the city.
The body of the work is buff decora-
ton in beautiful designs of harmonious
cOlOrs.
1t should be a source of pride to the
citizens of Butte who have the general
good at heart that the churches here are
making substantial gains and it should
be remembered that the men and women
Who are active in this work devote time
and money to it without any considera-
tion except the consciousness of doing
something for the betterment of man
kind and those who can not give time
should be liberal in extending financial
aid to this good work as the necessary
expenses of maintaining good churches
with their accompaniment of fine music,
able ministers and general comforts, can
not be had except at considerable cost.

MAKERS APPLICATION FOR
WRIT OF HABEAs CORPUS.
WOULD ALLOW THE
LAW TO TAKE ITS COURSE.
Two DEGREES of Divorce Granted-Par-
rot Case Continued-Another
Mining Suit Against B. & M.

Judge Clancy held a short session of
court this morning and rubbed few
matters from his docket. Among other
things, Ihe dismissed Dave Maher's ap-
pncation for a writ of habeas corpus,
saying in connection with it that as the
defendant was out ON bail he would
allow the law to take it's course in the
case. He also said he did not propose
to be bothered with that class of busi-
ness just now, as it consumed too much
of his time.
tMaher is charged with assault in the
1lrst degree on Jerry Sullvan-he is ac-
cused of having struck Sullivan in the
race with beer mug on the night OF
November 6, and knocked out one of his
eyes. Maher paid a fine of $40 in Jus
tice Bliss court for the offense being
allowed to enter a plea of guilty to sim
pie assault, but the relatives of his vic
tim would not let it go at that and
Drought the more serious charge of as
saut in the first degree. On the strength
or the fine paid in the justice court
Maher considered his liberty jeopardizei,
ana through his attorney, Charles
o'Donnell, applied for a writ of habeas
corpus.

ing on here is amazing. Mining sharks
and curbstone brokers are on every
hand. and opportunities for investment
are as thick as flies in August. The
mining stock exchange is a holy show.
Some of the listed stocks are safe and
meritorious but the great majority are
worthless, some of the mines they rep
resent having neither mill nor smelter
and some not even being in operation.
At the exchange the stocks are called
twice day and the widest kind of
scrambling goes on among the brok ers.
The daily scene in the grain pit in Chi
cago is not a marker to the Salt Lake
board meetings Some of the stocks
are selling at two and half mills per
snare and dollar transaction will
throw the holders of them into a frenzy
OF excitement. Several stocks range from
one to six cents share and leaving out
the six leaders the average of the list
is less than 10 cents. The newspapers
make more or less faithful daily reports
of transactions which are now said to
figure up from $4,000 to So, 900 daily. A
good many sales are of the wash"
variety and how some of the brokers
pay their Office rent is explained very
simply when it is stated that they have
no offices and therefore no office rent to
pay.

MINING MEN AND MINES.

A good many Montana men are living
here, some permanently, some only for
the winter. William McDermott has a
home here. Ex-Alderman A. e. Spriggs
is here. Robert d. Grant owns an ele-
CANT residence in the fashionable part
of the city. Howard Conrad makes Salt
Lake his headquarters. Alex. Tarbet is
Sc tiled down here, his mother and
brother Andy having moved from
Butte. James A. Murray has invested
half a million dollars in Salt Lake real
estate. Mr.. Frank klepetko of the Bos-
ton and Montana spends much time at
the Utah Con smelter which was built
under his direction. Montana men who
come here do so largely on account Of
the centrality of Salt Lake with
reference to the mining states, the
climate and the schools. The place is
not without drawbacks, however, the
chief one being the religious strife al
ways prevailing and dividing the com.
munity into hostile factions with a tacit
boycott going on all the time. There
are half a dozen wonderful mining prop
critics in the state such as the Silver
King and Daily West at Park City,
which have millions in sight; the Mercur
in the gold district of the same name;
the ltan con IN Bingham Which prom
ises steady dividends and long life; the

trict, and the Ophir property owned by
Senator Clark in the Ophir district
These are all dividend payers and there
is much excitement about them, yet

divorce, one of which went to Calvin
Marryatt and the other to Ada NARROW.
The defendant in the former case was
Hattie Marryatt. The plaintiff stated on
the witness stand that the defendant and
himself had been united in marriage in
Bozeman in December of 1890, and along
about July II of 1897 she had deserted
MN for no other reason than that he
told her if she persisted in visiting a
