There was practically no cattle market
yesterday, the few single hoofs and scat

ply Of all classes of cattle has most of the
time been very good and there are buy

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, March 16.-The remarkable
demonstration made by the Burlington
stock in today's stock market had a deci-
sive influence in lifting prices generally
to a higher level The persistent and
growing strength of Burlington overcarne
| the tendency toward heaviness, which
was manifest at some points in the first
hour of the trading. But the taking Of
speculative profits which was apparently
the cause OF this heaviness, continued all
through the late squirt in Burlington. 1t
was Offset to a sufficient extent by the
new buying, which came in through COM
mission houses to lift prices in the ma
jority Of cases through the realizing Of
ferings. There were exceptions on the
side Of weakness. st. Louis and San
Francisco dropped sharply 2 points un-
oder yesterday in the midst Of the buoy
ancy of the market. The coalers made
no notable response to the rise seeming
ly on account Of the possibility stin re-
naming of a clash with the miners. St
Paul was a notable laggard in the Grang-
er group and never got as much as
point over last night. Selling for Lon
don account had some depressing fniu-
ence. London seemed to take serious
view of the clash between the Russians
and the British at Tien Isin. Specula-
tive operations obviously had much to
do with the movement in Burlington.
The squirt to 1G1i4 which made the ex-
IRENE rise 615. brought such heavy real
izing that the stock was driven back

DONOVAN SAYS IT WAS ALL RIGHT.
The Butte Athletic Club Will be Allowed to
Pull OF fights.

Attorney General Donovan has
given out the Information that the
series Of boxing exhibitions that have
been given In Butte recently, under
the auspices Of the Butte Athletic
Club, nre not violations OF the anti.
prize fighting law and that be is con-
vlnced that the club Is promoting
sport along legitimate lines.
"Thc contest was all right" said
he. "While the state law prohibits
prize fighting. II does allow boxing
matches, and the association here IL
evidently keeping well within the
law in all particulars"
Manager John King of the Butte
Athletic Club IL well pleased with the
attitude Of the attorney general. He
stated to the Leader that from the
beginning the club had no intention
Of violating the law. lie said he had
consulted the best legal opinion in
Butte and had been advised that the
laws Of Montana did not prohibit
boxing exhibitions for exercise before
any athletic club or organization,
confined to the members. "The or
ganization Of the Butte Athletic Club
was effected with the view to con-
forming to the spirit as well AZ the
letter of the law" said Mr.. King,
"and In all contests held under It's
auspices the public, IA well az the
authorities, may confidently expect
nothing but high class boxing exhi-
billions, without the taint of iobbery,
taking, or any Of the disreputable
methods characterlzing prize fight
ing. II will be my policy to match
only boxers who arecleverexponents
of the manly art Of seli-dcfense. They
will be rs nearly equal as can be ar
ranged for, and every effort will be
mnde to avoid knOckouts, foul or
unfair boxing and any possibility OF
brutality. All contests will be con-
ducted under Marquis OF Queensbury
rules, with soft gloves, and no man
will be permitted To go into the ring
unless he IL In iirst-class physical con-
dition. The association has two
surgeons who are citizens of Butte
and who stand high In their profess
sion. Unless n man IL tit to box he
will not be allowed to go on"

Real Estate Went Up.

London, Aug. 2.-For some time
real estate In the vicinity Of Windsor
castle has been booming. and the
quiet residents OF the picturesque
neIghborhood could not fathom the
reason. Sales were made through
and to agents aud attorneys, and no
one seemed to bother az to who
would become the ultimate tenants.
1t now leaks out that all the big
purchases have been In the interests
Of wealthy Americans, who were
anxious to become nelghbors Of King
Edward and the royal family.
Those Americans, however, are
likely to be disappointed. for It Is ex-
pected that the king will spend very
little OF his time at Windsor castle.

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS HAVE COMMON sRst
So Says 7. R. HinsdaIe 10 Commune ation
TO This Office.

To the Editor Of the Argus.
Helena, Mont, Aug. 10, 1901 l.-SIR;
In your issue of the 9Th Of August
there appeared an article entitled
christian Science Philosophy"
which went on to cite some extreme
statements and absurdltles and cred
II them to the founder OF Christian
Science, the Rev. Mary Baker q.
Eddy.
l am truly glad to see that the AR.
GUS ends by stating that possibly
the meaning had been distorted and
unfair advantage taken. and IL hoped
that such was the case.
Such sentiments are In accord with
the progressive newspapers OF to-
day, which take no undue advantage
OF Christian Science, but give It Il fair
field and help to disabuse the public
mind Of the false impressions of some
persons, who, not understanding
the first principles of Christian Science
are at all times putting their concept
OF 1t into print.
Christian Scientists havegood com
mon sense like other people and their
religion would soon drive the many
thousands OF bright business men out
from itsranks, II IL did not give good
advice aud bring practical results,
even though some Of Its absolute
statements do not agree with the
general belief OF mankind. The fun
damental principles Of this new-old
religion IL the same that Jesus prac.
ticed 1900 years ago and bade us all
tn follow. He said: "And these
signs shall follow them that believe.
In my name shall they cast out dew
lis. They shall speak with new
tongues; they shall take up serpents,
and II they drink any deadly thing 1t
shall not hurt them. They shall lay
hands on the sick and they shall re-
cover" When John asked for n sign,
Jesus said: "Go and tell John how
the blind see, the deaf hear and the
sick are healed" Jesus also said,
"Take no thought for the body.
what we should wear or what we
should eat"
We do not nntagonlze these state
ments, and yet Christian Science does
not advocate one thing that our low
Ing Savior did not recommend and
advise all men to follow.
Because there has been progression
In all other things we should not re-
pei progression In religion. am
sure that no one would care to use n
tallow dip instead Of an electric light
just because his grandfather did; yet
this samepersOn will say "my grand
fathers religious beliefs are good
enough for me-" Christian Science
brings no new God, but brings man
kind into II better understanding of
our loving Father in heaven and
teaches them to follow the golden
rule in daily life. Thanking you for
your kindness and space, am,
Very Respectfully,

MANY RUNAWAY MARRIAGES.
Extra Fees for the Clerk and Special We'd
ding Parlors Used.

Indianapolis, Aug. 4.-As a result
OF secret investigation by Charles b.
Lockhart, travelling deputy attorney
general, the attorney general will
take steps to abolish the "Gretna
Green" at Jeffersonville. or at least
very materially reduce the runaway
marriages booked ut that place.
From complaints filed with the at
torney general, together with the re-
port OF his deputy, and publications
In Louisville and Jeifersonville news
papers, 1t il shown that l,4S9 mar
riage licenses were issued by the clerk
of Clark county for the year ended
June 30th, eighty per cent of which
were to non-residents. Fees derived
from this source amounted to $4,000,
paying the clerk s salary Of 1900 per
year.
1t is also shown that the clerk
charges the nOn-residents 81 for GER
tlficates OF mf r'iage, which IL retain
ed by him, 81 n each case being turn
ed over to the county. liz Is also al-
legged that the county clerk keeps
these licenses of the records until
after-the return Of the minister or
magistrate officiating at the we'd
ding, which frequently Is not made
out for months, thus deprivIng In
terested persons Of information
which might prevent unwelcome
marriages.
The report also shows that some
OF the marrying magistrates main
tain handsome wedding parlors,
which are open day and night, and
that runners or agents are constant
ly on the lookout for eloping couples,
receiving pay for conducting the
elopers tn the wedding parlors and
assisting them in procuring licenses
and summonipg magistrates.
