The Helena Lynching.

The grand jury which has been inves,

affair the report says:j

ter of the lynching of james Brady on
the morning of October 2, 1901, having
in this connection examined 38 Witnesses

office, and of the city police force, but

against any person for completely in this
crime.
"We must, however, severely condemn
the sheriff of Lewis and Clarke county

to protect from mob violence the pris-
oner, Brady, who was in his charge, and
we recommend the immediate dismissal

AQueer Mess.

Bishop Potter says that Booker T.
Washington has been entertained at his
table in New York, and it is now recalled
that last November the master of Tuske-
gee dined at the Waldorf Astoria with
such men as Mr.. Depew, Gen. Howard,
Capt. Mahan, Thomas B. Reed and Gen.
Sickles. In Paris, a few years ago, Mr..
Washington sat at the same table with
Former President Benjamin Harrison,
Ambassador Porter and other distin-
guished men. The eliminating fact, OF
course, is that this honored and distin.
guished American with the dark skin
and his wife have been the guests of the
late Queen Victoria at tea 1t is a
queer mess if a man who has had his tea
from the table of the worlds greatest
queen, the figurehead of one the swell
est societies known, cannot eat soup with
the president of the United States.--

Something New In Alarm Clocks.

The recent discoveries in wireless tele
graphy and the immense strides made
in the perfection of automobiles and fly
ing machines all tend to prove that the
twentieth century is sure to keep pace
with its predecessors in the strenuous
endeavor to centralize effort. AS an ex-
ample OF this tendency and of thoughts
simple in themselves which often bring
about great results, our attention has
been called to new application of the
clock, ana it is matter of surprise that
this household necessity has passed
through all the commercial vicissitudes
involved in the fuctuation of prices from
the figure which placed it beyond the
reach of common mortals, down to the
present forty cent edition, with it's most
valuable feature unappreciated. 1t re-

chanic often became so interested in his
daily avocatioh that the heeting hours
passed unheeded, and he finally found
himself verging on physical collapse, the
result of continuing at his labors un-
consciously beyond the hour of six
o'clock p. N. By careful calculation he
found that now and then that hour had
beer exceeded by the broad margin of
at least two min utes. In his dilemma
tired unto death, he happened to remem-
Der that his employer had provided an
alarm clock TO ring discord on the morn
ing air and insure his presence at the
serving ofcotfee and hot cakes. "Why
-yes-why not? If this clock can start
me to work, why can't it stop me?'
The idea was born; the alarm was set for
5:45 every, afternoon, and thereafter the
i contentment which rested on the brow
of the disceverer bore testimony to the
fact that he was always walked up in
tune to wash for supper,

Tried by Court Martial.

Washington, Oct. 27.-General George
B. Davis, judge advocate general of the
army. has submitted to the secretary of
war his annual report for the year ended
June 30, 1901. 1t shows that during the
year there were 6,065 trials by general
court martial, being coo less than during
the preceding year. OF these 16 were
trials of CO nmanding officers, of whom
10 were convicted. The report says that
the number of men senteced to the dis
honorable discharge discharge in the
regular army was 1885, and in the vol
unteer army 333, making total of 2,218.
Death sentences were imposed by court
martial in six cases of enlisted men, four
of the cases being on conviction OF deser-
ton. The death sentences except IN one
case of murder we're committed by the
president.
| General Davis says that death senten
ces were imposed by military commits
sions in about 242 cases, nearl. all
natives of the Philippine islands, on con-
viction of more serious crimes, and the
sentences were executed in about 101
cases. In most of the remaining cases
the sentences were commuted TO i'm
prisonment for terms varying from 10
years to life impsison ment.

of the man who built the mill and has
