A Tesf af VIII Power.

At one of the clubs the other day
two members were arguing about will
power.
The conceited man, who was in the
habit of boring all present with his
pointless tales, said that his will was
stronger than his friends.
You are wrong there" said the
quiet man, "and 1 will prove 1t in this
way: You go and stand in that cor
ner and / will will you to come out of
it. You will against me, and bet you
that l will have you from that cor
ner before l have commanded you a
second time"
The smart one took the bet and put
himself in the corner. The quiet man
said, in a commanding voice:
Come out of that corner!"
The other grinned and shook his
head. The ON. sat down and looked
at him steadily. Five minutes passed
and then the man of will said, with n
sneer, Hadn't you better give it up?

YOUTHFUL BEAR HUNTER.
Psnnxylvania Boy Shot Three in One
Day.

Psnnsylvania Boy Shot Three In One
Day.
Three wild bears in one day by 13-
year-old boy is something out OF the
common. This. however, is the record
of George Manly of Lock Haven, Pa.
One morning while George was wan
dering aimlessly near Hammersley's
park, he discovered three bears. Going
home quickly he got his fathers gun.
returned to the scene and shot one OF
the animals, afterward dragging it
home. The Manly household was great
ly astonished. After dinner the lad
made another trip to the scene of his
adventure. AS he saw no bears then
he hid in thicket and watched. In
little while he saw the head Of an
other bear thrust through fence not
ten feet away. He fired, hitting the
bear in the left shoulder. After whirl-
ing around few times bruin dropped
dead. Then Manly ran home again.
loaded his gun, while his mother stood
speechless with astonishment. He
merely said, More bears" and bounced
out of the house. AS he got into the
front yard he saw the third bear slowly
crossing the road quite close to the
house. One shot ended the career of
this one Dragging 1t to the house, he
wiped his brow and merely said:

Buffalo.
(Special Letter.)

Slowly moving through California
toward the Mexican border Is one OF
the strangest professions ever seen IN
this or any other land. 1t Is composed
Of Indians belonging to the Chicka-
saw, Cherokee, Delaware and Creek
tribes, and altogether 1t numbers close
to. II not quite. 10000 men, women and
children OF the red-skinned race. The
leader of this remarkable exodus Is
Mollie Big Buffalo, full-blooded
Ponca squaw, who for years has been
a source OF anxiety to Indian agents
in various parts OF the west. She claims
to be graduate of the Carlisle
school. but in her recent life she
has shown no sign of favor to the
ways of civilization. Instead she has
moved from place to place, wearing
picturesque form of Indian garb and
stirring hitherto peaceful braves to
discomfort and rebellion. The result
has been numerous more or less seri-
GUS outbreaks among the red men,
nearly every visitation of this curious
woman having resulted in trouble OF
some kind. Therefore it is that white
men of the far west look with undis-
guised satisfaction on the continual
stream of dusky emigrants as move
over mountain and plain toward the
Mexican line.
The Indians now on the move south

Case of Colusa-Parrot Mining Com

Clancy, should be set aside were filed
in the district court today.
The affidavits were made by John
w. Cotter. an attorney for the plaintiff,
and Fred A. Pratt, foreman of the
plaintiffs concentration. The affidavits
say that since the modification order
was made the concentration has suffered
from dearth of water and that if the or

Pratt alleges that on October 2, be-
tween the hours Of II and l o'clock, not
over 100 inches Of water could he had
by the plaintiff out of the creek for the
purpose of operating the mill. and that
was insufficient for the purpose. After

MACKEL AND ROCHESTER SUIT
The Former Is Battling the Latter For
the Price of the Bartlett Stock
of Goods.

Judge Knowles has been engaged to-
day with the trial Of the suit brought by
Alexander Mackel against Ras Roches-
ter to recover judgment for 1854, the al
legged value of the stock of goods sold
by Fred Bartlett to Mr.. Rochester Feb
ruary 4. 1899, four days before Mr.. Bart
lett filed his petition in bankruptcy. The
suit is being tried before a jury.
Mr.. Mackel is the plaintiff by reason
of the fact that he received the appoint
ment of trustee in the bankruptcy pro-
ceedings.
The action is based on allegations of
fraud, the claim having been made by
Mr.. Mackel that at the time Mr.. Bartlett
sold the goods to Nh Rochester he knew
he was insolvent and made the deal in
order to prevent his creditors, to whom
he was indebted about $1,000 from clos
ing in on him and satisfying their claims
from his accounts.
Taken as a whole, the case is some
what sensational, for in it sham burg
larry and "a few other irregular things fig
ure quite prominently.

DRUG CLERKS UNITE
SUCCEED IN ORGANIZING AFTER
MANY FRUITLEss ATTEMPTS.
SEEK fewer HOURS, MORE PAY
Held Their First Meeting Last Might
Claim Majority Of the Clerks
Have Already En-
4 rolled.

For some days past a union of the
Butte drug clerks has been in the course
or formation. to be known as the Butte
Drug Clerks union. Last evening the
association held its first meeting, the
assemblage taking place in K. of P. hall,
North Main street. Committees were APP
pointed to call upon the druggists in the
city and also to communicate with the
various labor organizations. The COM
bine has the qualified Endorsement and
the moral support Of all the trades and
labor unions in the city, and starts out
auspiciously with majority of the drug
clerks enrolled upon its list of member
ship.
The Drug Clerks union will be part
and parcel of the regular Clerks I'M
ION. amendments having been made in
the latter associations bylaws adapta-
BILE to the former. The promoters of the
organization say they desire it distinct
~ understood that it is not the intention
to force the employers to an advocation
OF their cause. but believe an initial step
should be taken in order that certain
ends which they have in view shall he
gained as quickly as possible. There
have been several organizations of the
kind started heretofore, but this is the
first time any one Of them has reached
a successful conclusion. There are
number of the clerks who have not as
yet made application to the union, but
these are in the minority, and have al
ready made known their desire to join.
The association, it is expected, will
prove Of benefit to the employers and
the public at large, as we'll as to the
clerks themselves. At present the drug
clerks of Butte are on shift for IA hours
every day, besides working Sundays and
holidays. Their salaries, they say, Is at
least one-thiru below the average pay
received by any other class of labor, and
the tuition requisite for a registered
pharmacist ranges from $1,000 up to
$1,000. They hold that with two hours
less in their days work, making r.
hour day, they Will be better fitted to
give satisfaction to the public, and there
is less danger Of mistakes in prescrip-
tons, due to the responsibility that
comes from sleeplessness and overwork.
The minimum salary, also will be placed
at 500 per month.
1t is understood that certain Of the
druggists in town are not in favor of the
combination, but who, on the contrary
are very much set against it, and it Is
said have discharged three Of the men
known to be connected with it's promot-
ing. For the most part, however, they
are heartily in accord with the idea. r.
H. Paxson Of Paxson & Rockefeller is
quoted as saying: If 1 myself We're a
drug clerk I should certainly belong to
the new union" Rose & Roskins have
stated: 1--WE are very much in favor
of any movement III this respect taken
by the Butte drug clerks" A. S. Chris
tie Of Christie & Legs declares: 1T is
thoroughly understood that the Butte
drug clerks work more hours than they
possibly could and give the public the
service they have a right to expect"
