JENKINS GOT A MONTH IN JAIL
Seven DRINKS in One Week Strained
the Judges Patience to the
Breaking Point.

The last culprit on deck Saturday
morning and the first to make his little
bow to Judge Boyle today was none
other than the veteran soldier and min
err. John Jenkins. John has kept Boyle
busy for the past week in the lecture
line. Seven times drunk and seven
times on the carpet during the past ten
days Is the record of Jekins. Jenkins
has managed to secure dismissal of his
case on each occasion on a promise to
cut Butte and it's temptations ou for
keeps. Notwithstanding his graceful
salutatiOn and learned discussion on the
rights of men. the old offender failed
to land on the soft spot in Judge Boyle's
heart this morning. He succeeded, how
ever, in securing for himself quarters
in the county Jail for thirty days. Judge
Boyle said: "By that time. John, you
certainly will be sober 1t is a blessing
on you to get the opportunity to sober
up, and / guess it will take you that

ONLY BARBAR|ANs
THE PROPER WAY TO HAVE
TREATED THE CHINESE.
USELESS LONG DRAWN 0UTWAR
The Powers Should Have Left the
Boxers to Their Own Devices After
Rescuing the Legations and Let
Them Fight It All Out Themselves
or Seek for Foreign Aid.
(By Associated Press.)

New York. May 27.-Prince Omkath-
Omsky, president of the Russo Chinese
bank, who is described as knowing the
Chinese, having studied them and as
having lately spent four months at Pc
kin, is quoted at some length on the
Chinese situation in a st. Petersburg
dispatch to the Herald. In the course
of the interview. he said:
Il did not see Count Won Waldersee
at Pekin, but every one there knew that
he felt the uselessness Of his policy. The
kaiser thought Pekin could be taken
with battalion. So it could, but the
battalion could not stop there. That
Is what he did not understand. He did
not comprehend the tenacity and silent
resisting power of the Chinese, who have
the character of the Finlander and the
characteristics Of Turanian blood. The
Chinese will never forgive and never for
get. There is no fear with them. The
spirit of fatalism among them is far
too strong. They would not care even
if as many m ere of them We're sacrificed"
"Do they hate Germans particularly"
mo they dislike us all about equally
and now more than ever"
What would have been the right
course to Dursue?"
ItelIIe DIT once after the legations
had been rescued and treat the Chinese
as barbar:ans with whom we would
having no more intercourse. Had that
been done. Ii Hung Chang and the rest
of the mandarins would have come run
ming down after us. Instead of that, and
I look upon it as a shame. that Russian
representatives should be in such a po-
sition, ministers are running after Ii
Hung Chang, bowling, scraping and crav-
ing audiences Of him."
Should Germany not evacuate Pekin
before the wet season comes on?"
When the season commences the lega-
tons cannot remain in the city. They
will have to go up to the hills. They
will go with small guard of soldiers"
What will happen them"
In the recent trouble over which
there was so much difficulty only one Of
the Legations was attacked. The prob
ability is that the Chinese are now more
angry and excited than ever and will at
tack all the legations. Remember, the
Chinese are very bitter and have much
right to be so. The pllaging at Pekin
was something awful. Pekin was fabu-
lousy rich"

BUTTE's SOCIETY BLUE BOOK
The Book Is Up-to-date, the Author
Says, ant Is Just What Is
Needed.

Inc names of Butte's we'll known resi-
dents have been grouped together in al
phabetical Arrangement and printed in a
Blue Book" The book will be bound
and ready for sale and distribution about
the end of the present month. 1t has been
prepared by John Boyle O'Reilly and con-
talns the names of all the we'll known
residents of the city with their addresses.
hIhe author of the book starts out with
the following preface in which Mr..
iOfReilly announces the purpose the book
IS intended to serve:
All of Buttes society ladies have
dreaded the task of preparing a list n
quests for a reception or other impor-
tant social function. The cards of CALI
Ing acQuaintances and the invitations of
other hostesses. even If preserved, do
not furnish complete data. Then too,
man; like the feathered tribe, has strong
!. migratory. instincts which he gratifies
to the extent of occasionally changing
his address, to the perplexity of his
! Wouidbe hostess and calling acQuaint-
Aances.
1t is the design of the compiler of the
Butte Blue Book to tighten the task Of
arranging lists, and to furnish family
directory that will be of practical use.
Every possible effort has been made to
secure complete list of the prominent
people of the community, with special
reference to those who figure conspicu-
ously in the social world, while it will be
round that the lines have not been too
closly drawn. In it's arrangement, the
plans adopted by publishers of similar
DOCKS in the larger cities have been fol-
lowed, with the result that several fea-
lures of special interest and value and
new to Butte have been introduced.
The chief claim of merit made for the
Butte Blue Book, however, is that it is
up 10 date and will fill all needs for
such work for a considerable time to
come.

Ya1ue of a College.

The proposition of the NJ. E.,
South, Corvallis conference 10 es-
tablish college in this city is a
matter Of great Importance to the
people of Roseburg. 1t is under
stood that what is probably the
best natural site for such a school
in Oregon can be secured almost in
the city limits for little more than
S., 900, and this amount the people
Of this city will be asked TO raise.
The conference will then erect suit
able buildings ct once, aud estab.
lish school with complete college
curriculum, and with competent
teachers in every department. The
conference voted to expend $25, 900,
and this amount will be raised as
fast as ID can be collected within the
church.. High schools, and espec.
tally those of college rank, are very
important factors in the growth of
cities nowadays. Parents uni
versally recognize the necessity of
educating their children, and pre-
fer to reside in towns where the
school facilities are such that they
may have the highest educational
advantages without being absent
from the home circle. A college
once located would induce many
people to locate here for the sake
of educating their families, and it
would keep thousands of dollars of
Roseburg money at home. that is
now spent for board and tuition OF
our young people in the college
towns of the state. Thus it would
be e financial benefit to the town,
aside from its elevating tendency
upon all grades ofsociety.-Review.

The Prufie Industry.

A dispatch from Washington,
D. c., contains an account of
Prof. E. R. Lakes report to the
Department Of Agriculture on
his return from, his official jour
ney to Europe. He is also
quoted on conditions of the prune
industry of the Northwest. We
print the following interesting
extract:
Prof. E. R. Lake, of Corvallis,
Oregon, left here last week for
his home. He spent the sum-
mer in Germany, France and
Austria, investigating the ques-
ton of prune culture under the
direction of the Department of
Agriculture, the object Of his
visit being to secure varieties OF
prunes for the Pacific Northwest
that could be grown with little
likelihood of injury frem the
elements.
"The prune industry Of the
Pacific Northwest" Mr.. Lake
said before leaving for the West,
is the foremost horticultural
interest of that part Of the eeun.
try Indeed, the extent of the
industry, the aggregate Of CAPT
tai and equipment necessary t
prepare and market the crop i.
understood by but few people
While there has been many
acres of improbable orchards
destroyed during the past fiv'
years, and more particularly tn,
past two, yet there are hundred
of acres being set out at th'
present time. II fact the nev
paintings of 1ooo-1oo1 will b.
the largest since the boom day
of I8eo-9I.'
It is estimated by Mr.. LAX
that the acreage of prunes in tn
above states is abont so, 900, an
this, together with the equip
nent, including evaporators
paeking-houses, etc., is valued a
$2o, ,ooo, 900. An average moi
NAL crop would be $4,000, 90
poahds Of evaperated fruit
Upon the basis of prices receive
for the crop this year, this woul
yield an income Of So, 500, ooe
Isis evident from this that th
pIune industry Of the Pacif
Northwest is one of 40 little i'm
portance to this comparative1
undeveloped- region. In the maj
ter of new varieties it is elaine
that the recent introduction:
providing they succeed, and fru
with as relative an earliness Z
In their native surrounding.
will be worth at least $500, 90
per year to this section, in sh:
they will enable the growers
lengthen the season of harVes
ing by at least 10 days, sine
$ these varieties appear to have a
the desirable merits of the ont
grown at present, and ripen frol
10 to "a days earlier.
