Mr.. Norris, fortunately, is not a con-

to be equisitely vain about his medium.
He has the kind of brain stuff that
would vanquish difficulties in any pro-

battleships, or solving problems Of
finance. or to devising colonial policies.
Let US be thankful that he has put it
to literature. Let US be thankful, more
over, that he is not retrospective and
that his intellect does not devour itself,
but feeds upon the great race Of man.
and, above all, let US rejoice that he is
not temper amental'' artist. but some
thing larger, for great brain and an
assertive temperament seldom dwell to-

There are clever men enough in the
field of American letters. and the fault
of most Of them is merely one Of magni-

travel in small orbits, they play on

Of Cadmus, but of the tea table and the
Odyssey Of the Rialto. Flaubert said

serious things, he has only large ambi-
lions. His brush is bold, his color is
taken fresh from the kindly earth, his
canvas is large enough to hold Ameri-

Frank Norris, published a novel with
the unpretentious title, "McTeague
Story Of San Francisco" 1t was 9
book that could not be ignored nor dis
missed with word There was some
thing very unusual about it, about its
solidity and mass, the thoroughness and
tirmness Of texture, and it came down
like blow from sledge hammer among

ances Of the hour.
The most remarkable thing about the
book was it's maturity and compactness
1t has none Of the ear-marks of those
entertaining 'young writer's" whom
every season produces as inevitably as
its debutantes, young men who surprise
for an hour and then settle down to
producing industriously for the class
with which their peculiar trick OF phrase
has found favor. 1t was book ad-
blessed to the American people and to
the critics Of the world, the work of q
young man who had set himself to the
art OF authorship with an almighty
seriousness, and who had no ambition
to be clever. ''McTeague" was not an
experiment in style nor pretty piece
OF romantic folly, it was true story of
the people-having about it, as M. lola
would say. "the smell Of the people,
courageous, dramatic, full of matter and
warm with life. 1t was realism of the
most incorporating kind. The theme
was such that the author could not have
expected sudden popularity for his book,
such as sometimes overtakes monstrosi-
ties of style in these discouraging days
when Knighthood is in Flower to the
extent of quarter of a million copies,
nor could he have hoped for pressing
commissions from the fire side periodi-
Gals. The life story Of quack dentist
who sometimes extracted molars with
his fingers, who mistreated and finally
murdered his wife, is not, in itself, at
tractive. But. after all, the theme
counts for very little. Every newspa-
per contains the essential subject mat
ter for another Coincide Humane. The
important point is that a man consider.
ably under thirty could take up sub
ject 80 grim and unattractive. and that,
for the mere love Of doing things well.
he was able to hold himself down to the
task of developing it completely, that
he was able to justify this quack's ex-
istence in literature, to thrust this hairy,
blonde dentist with the salient jaw Of
the carnivora," in amongst the immor-
tails.
1t was after NJ. lola had completed
one Of the greatest and gloomieet Of his
novels of Partisan life, that he went
down by the sea and wrot, LA Reve,'
that tender. adolescent story of love and
purity and youth. So, almost stimuli
with "McTeague," Mr.. Norris
published "Blix," another San Francisco
story, as short as "McTeague" was
lengthy, as light as "McTeague" was
heavy, as poetic and graceful as "Mc-
league" was somber and chsrmless.

CHILDREN At
THEIR STUDIES
SUPERINTENDENT YOUNG SAYS
THE SCHOOLS OPENED
AUSPICIOUSLY.
CONGESTION OF PUPILS
AT MANY BUILDINGS
Will Require Shifting in Order to Ac.
/ commodate Them-New Teach
H. ers in High School.

The fall term of the public schools of
Butte began this morning. The end of
the long summer vacation found the
pupils prepared to resume their studies
with an earnestness and alacrity graf
flying to their teachers.
At the high school, Professor Leamy
reported the opening most favorable,
starting in with a large enrolment of
new pupils. Three new teachers entered
upon their duties this morning-Miss
Humphrey, graduate of the Kansas State
university, who takes charge of the
English department.; Miss Brown, grad
uate of Smith college, Northampton,
Mass, and the Buffalo Normal college,
takes a position in the Latin depart
ment; Miss O'Leary, graduate of the
Prang institute, Chicago. takes charge
of the drawing department. Another
teacher in Latin will soon be added in
the person of Miss Sue Baldwin, thus
making three Latin teachers in that
branch of high school education. Miss
Baldwin is detained through illness at
her home in Atlantic City.
Superintendent Young turned up at
his office in the high school at noon,
after a morning tour of inspection. He
had not visited all the schools. but such
as came under his observation was a
fair criterion of the condition of all.
II found the Lincoln school packed
yes, more than packed" said Professor
Young For instance, the receiving
room was crowded with $50 pupils. Every
room in the building was full, running
from 65 to so scholars. The Webster
school was well filled. The same is true
of the Garfield. The Grant school, the
last visited this morning, was also con
gested."
From the attendance, exhibited this
morning the indications are that before
the end of the week all of the schoo
buildings will be badly congested. But
let me say this in favor Of our teachers:
Notwithstanding the crowded condition
of the rooms, the order among the schol-
see better discipline maintained.
From the showing made this morn
ing, in order to relieve the congestion
and distribute the scholars equitably, ii
Will be necessary to resort to shifting.
The school authorities hope that the par
ents of pupils will be good-natured and
not murmur if the pupil is placed in
| another room than the one the scholar
! expected to occupy. The Inter Mountain
would help the school work II 1t callas
the attention Of parents to the expedi
ency of sending the children In as sooI
as possible. so that they may be enrolled
and classified.
: WE start in with six more teachers
this school term. Altogether the open
ing is decidedly suspicious. No aWk-
| ward breaks have occurred, and every
thing indicates that the teaching force
understand their business"

OPERATIONS
SUSPENDED
PECK'S EXPERIMENTAL CONCEN-
TRAITOR WAS NOT A GREAT
SUCCESS.
INTENDED TO WORK LOW
GRADE ORES AND TAILlNGS.
Franklin Farrell Backed the Enter
prise-Present Machinery Is
Inadequate.

Operations at the concentrating plant
erected a few months g on the site
of the old Centennial mill by .. b. Peck,
were suspended Saturday. and in all
probability work will never be resumed.
The Peck concentration was erected for
the purpose of making a test on the low
grade ores n talings from the CON
centrators of this district. There are
millions of tons of tailings around Butte
which carry good values and which
could be worked at a profit if a process
could be discovered by which they could
be worked economically and a high per-
centage of saving effected. There are
unnumbered millions of tons of low
grade ores and tailings from the cons
which cannot be treated at a profit by
present methods.
Franklin Farrell, the former president
Of the Parrot Copper. and Silver mining
company, was the financial hacker of
the enterprise. r. D. Grant, who repre-
sents Mr.. Farrel's interest in the west,
has been in Butte several weeks, dur
ing the time in which the mill was in
operation. The tests were not satisfac-
tory to Mr.. Grant and he decided to sus-
pend operations for the present. Mr..
Grant will cave for Utah tomorrow to
look after some of Mr.. Farrel's inter-
ests in that state, and will leave Salt
I~dke september ~ TOT new YORK, where
he will meet Mr.. Farrell upon the lat
ter's return from England, where he haS
been visiting for some weeks.
The results Of The tests made in Butte
by Mr.. Peck will be made known to
Mr.. Farrell. Mr.. Peck claims that the
present machinery, which cost in the
neighborhood of $40, 900, is entirely in
adequate to make a thorough test, and
MI. Farrell will decide upon the matter
Of putting in larger machinery. In the
meantime a Waterman will take care o.
the plant. Millmen of this section of
country, who have watched the opera
ton of the test concentration, express
their doubts as to the practibility of Mr..
Peck's process and point to similar ex-
periments in other mining districts az
a confirmation of their opinions.
