A happening which Is claimed BY
local electrical experts to have been
the most remarkable in the history
OF electric lighting occurred the other
night at the subpower station Of the
Montana Power Transmission COM
pany, at the foot Of Montana street,
says the Anaconda Standard. It was
a human being short-circuitiug an
electric current Of 1000 horsepower,
or 10000 volts. and escaped without
30 much as a slight burn. The cir
! was that which the Montana
transmission company manufactures
at the big water power plant on the
Big Hole river. The current is brought
TO Butte. a distance of 20 miles, at a
pressure Of $4,000 volts, and at the
substation, at the foot Of Montana
street, is reduced for consumption in
the city. The wires carrying this tre-
mendous voltage enter the building at
the substation and are carried to a
switchboard which stands a few feet
from n of the walls, and is by the
mechanism Of this switchboard divert
ed to the step-down transformers,
which do the business Of reducing the
pressure.
Here is where the great American
Indian makes his entrance into this
very unusual tale, which is the story
OF how one lone red man brought to a
s~tandstill the entire business of a cor
poration worth more than $1,000. 900.
South of the city is the camp of a band
OF Cree Indians, and in travelling to
and from the city the Indians have
to pass the subpower station. One
OF the tribe had been in the city dur
ing the day and had filled I'D on fire.
water till his natural means of loco
motion was considerably impaired.
and the consequence was that when
he reached the light station he con-
Guided to take a rest. The night was
rainy and cold and he looked about
Tor shelter. The station is always
kept locked at night, but 10 found
an open window and crawled inside.
What he, next did is a forcefuI exem-
plitication of the saying; Fools walk
boldly in where angels fear to tread"

children whose minds are being pois-
oned by contact with crime, whose
footsteps are being guided into the
broad path that leads to moral ruin
and yet who could be saved by efforts
such as those which Mrs, Norton is
making to shelter homeless felines.
No summer passes in Chicago or in
any large city that does not witness
the deaths of hundreds of children as
the result Of physical surroundings and
conditions. No winter passes that does
not bring s~uffering-the pangs Of hum
ger, the stings of cold-to thousands OF
children throughout the United States.
Are these little ones less worthy of at
tention than brutes?
1t is true there are societies for the
relief Of the poor and unfortunate
among Jul kind, but it is equally true
that that work is not .n)rough and
that every day in the yeas there are
thousands suffering in this land of
ours. Is there not sickness in many
homes in Chicago at this moment? Are
there not fevered brows, and burning
lips, and aching eyes and weakened
bodies tossing day and night on beds
of pain? To many a cooling drink
would be a pleasing gift, the sight of
a few flowers a vision of bliss. a kind
word a benediction.
We believe that ministrations such
as these T more consistent with our
Christian duties here than caring for
cats. They are old-fashioned to be
sure-but their origin is divine.

The search for the north pole has
resulted in wonderful scientific dis
coveries and lasting benefits to man
kind. Some of the rarest secrets of ma
ture have been disclosed. Gen. Greedy
says: within the Arctic circle have
been located and determined the poles
Of the triple magnetic forces. Study Of
barometrlc pressures in the far north
has given a better understanding of
the climates Of northern America. Eu-
rope and Asia. Soudings of the sea,
aerial temperatures, and photographic
surveys In the Arctics have given birth
to that most satisfactory and impor-
tant theory of a vertical i-nteroceanic
circulation. A handful of dried Arctic
plants enabled a botanist to forecast
the general character of unknown
lands, and In fossil plants from the
north another scientist has read the
story of tremendous climatic changes
that metamorphosed the face Of the
earth. The tides OF the Arctics have
added to our knowledge Of the infu-
ence of the stellar world upon our
own"
hansen says: 'The highest results
are those associated with the hydro
graphy Of the great oceans; the OBJ
servations needed for the further
knowledge OF storms. and magnetism
with its relations to the compass, the
telegraph and the telephone"
The discovery Of the pole itself will
settle the problem as to the elliptcity
Of the earth's surface, which enters
into every computation Of area or di-
dection. Until the exact figure Of the
earth is known no boundary line can
be run with precision, and dangerous
rocks and shoals can not be indicated
with accuracy. Until then, tables In
nautical calculations can not be set
