MEETINGS ARE CLOSED.

The last of the series of revival meet
ings conducted by Miss Dennis at the
Methodist church was held last night
concluding session of three weeks. The
large crowds that have fiocked to hear
Miss Dennis during her three weeks stay
here is remarkable and the large number
of real converts is a source of gratifica-
ton and pride for the earnest worker.
Last nights attendance was no excep-
ton to the rule and the church was COM
fortaby filled to hear the farewell sermon
of the noted evangelist, and those who
were there last night We're amply repaid
b. the teachings of the eloquent sermon
preached as were the many on all other
nights who attended the entire service.
Miss Dennis departed on last nights
9:5Qet for Billings where she will con-
duct a series of revival meetings during
the next 10 days and then proceed to Iowa
where she has engagements and will con-
tinue the good work.
Rev. Mr.. Cattermole in a few we'll
chosen words, before the sermon, eX-
pressed high appreciation of the great
amount of good work done by Miss Dem
piss during her stay here. and also stated
that their relations had been most pleas
ant during the entire service and the
prayers Of many people would follow her
to her new field of labors.

WAS ACQUAINTED WITH CARMEN

There is one man in Anaconda, Captain
er, who is personally acquainted with
IA. r. Carman, the former newspaper
man, who was arrested in Manila, P. l.,
by the government authorities for spug
Cling clothing and ammunition to the
Filipino rebels.
Captain Greenan sai! few days ago
that he remembered Carman well, having
met him in Manila While he was in ser
vice in the Philippines with the Montana
volunteers.
AT that time Carman was engaged in
port trading business. and also did
great deal of drayi ~ and transferring
of freight for the government. For this
service he utilized a great many buffa-
10. Carman finally took a Spaniard into
partnership with him and together they
did an immense amount of business. and
as a consequence made lots of money.
Carman, so Captain Grennan states, was
a high fyer,'' and there wasn't any,
thing too good for him. He went out
driving every day with the finest team
and buggy that could be found in the
city of Manila. Wine suppers were a
common thing and, in fact, nothing was
too good for him. He made money easy
and he was not in any way stingy about
how to spend it.
Captain Greenan is not very much sur
prised at the trouble Carman has gotten
into: from what he had seen of him
while in the Philippines he reached the
conclusion long ago that such fast liv-
ing could not always last. Carman was
what could be called a Smooth charac-
ter too, and he always took particular
pains to get into the friendship of the
officers of the army. He was very cour-
teous and obliging to them and there
wasn't anything, apparently, that he
wouldn't do for their comfort or enter
tainment, so in that manner, he worked
into their condolences and went about un-
suspected until the government secret
service agents recently caught him, as
well as his Spanish partner, doing the
traitorous act of smuggling supplies into
the camp of the enemy.
Captain Greenen says Carman owned
several small, but nicely equipped steam
ships. which he placed at the disposal of
the army officers whenever they could
go on little pleasure jaunt, or if he
knew of any army men being on bofn.d
of any incoming vessel he would invar:
iably send out a boat to meet them and
escort them to shore.

THE BOOK AND THE PLAY

Few plays, either at home or abroad.
during the past twenty years have ha d
the good fortune enjoyed by Hall Gaines
adaptation of his novel, 'The Christian, 2"
Which comes to the Margaret theater
next Thursday. The book had an enor-
nous sale on both sides of the Atlantic,
but the play seems destined for even
greater popularity than the book In
New York the public of all classes
crowded to see it for 175 nights in sue
cession. while cultured Boston pro-
nounced it the best play in many years
and gave it an uninterrupted run of 40
nights. and the trained and experienced
dramatic writer's in every large city
from coast to coast have pronounced it
the greatest triumph in stage literature
ever produced in this country. The COM

THE TWO BUILDERS.

Two men. a Chinese legend runs,
once found that each must build
n house. And each, in building, was
An artisan most skilled.
But one thought of the days of work,
And weary was at heart,
The other thought not Of the toll,
But how 'twere best to start.
The one knelt down before his Joss,
With countenance dismayed.
He asked the Joss to build the house,
And prayed, and prayed, and prayed.
The other gathered up his TOOLS
And straight the task assailed.
He hewed the joists, and hung the doors,
And nailed, and nailed, and nailed.
The one prayed on, before his Joss,
Through all the weary while,
The joss peered from the altar smoke,
With something like a smile.
The other, when he built his house,
Took all the extra planks,
And burned them at the Joss feet
, IAN Offering of thanks.
The one looked up from where he knelt,
And cried: ooh, wretched man,
You did not wait for holy aid,
Yours was a wicked plan"
The other smiled. and answered him:
I'd not ask Joss to bless
"a quality that might be termed
AS simple laziness."
The beauty of the legend is
That it may be applied
To any work we may attempt,
OR any faith beside.
For, asking Providence to do
nj birb birly
Is apt to teach a lazy man
The usefulness of work

ARE ON THE ANXIOUS SEAT. \

1t is less than two weeks until the term
of Postmaster Devine will have expired.
March second is the date, and every day
the people of Anaconda are anxiously
looking for some word conveying the in
formation as to who his successor will
be. At the same time the candidates are
Cn the anxious seat and each one is liv-
ing in hopes that the plum will fall to
them. OF course Mr.. Devine may be al
lowed to hold over awhile, but so far as
lie is concerned. he Is willing to step down
and out almost any time. Four years
with the burdens of the postoffice on his
shoulders is quite enough for him. and he
feels that it will be quite a relief when his
successor presents his commission for ad-
mission.
The appointment is liable to come any
day now, however.
