The question has arisen in educa-
tional circles in Montana as to the adj
visibility Of organizing pension fund
for the benefit of teachers after they
reach certain age both in years and
service. The pensions would not be
paid by public taxation, but from re-
serve fund accumulating from small
monthly payments from the school
teachers of the state. Secretary Good
man of the Helena school board is much
in favor of the project and State Super
intendent w. w. Welch expressed him
self TO the effect that benefit associ-
alton OF the nature mentioned is ex-
tremely desirable. The matter will be
considered at the next annual meeting
of the state teachers association.
The law providing for the payment
of supreme court and district Judges by
the month is unconstitutional and State
Treasurer Barret has decided that they
shall be paid quarterly, as in the past.
Since his return the state treasurer has
looked up the law and finds this provis-
ion in section 90, article :, OF the con-
stitution: 1.-THE justices of the supreme
court and the judges of the district
courts shall each be paid quarterly by
the state a salary which shall not be
increased or diminished during the
terms for which they shall have been
respectively elected" Acting on this
provision of the constitution Mr.. Barret
has announced that he will not pay any
more salaries Of Judges, save as pro-
vided in the constitution, unless the
matter is taken to the courts and de
cision is handed down directing him to
do otherwise.

Real Estate Talk.

In 1888 Mrs. Mary Houston bought
five acres of land out near what is
now Fortieth street, for $1,000. At that
time the old Jail stood on Hall street,
and everything beyond that was "old
fields" The White Bluff Toll Gate
was just the other side of Anderson
street. and beyond the Toll Gate was
sure enough sin the country" She
paid $500 an acre for the land, and you
may be sure there were plenty of peo-
pie to tell her how badly she had been
swindled, that $500 an acre was two or
three times what it was worth-that
it wasn't any account for anything,
except a farm, and that good farming
land could be bought for $50 an acre.
In fact she was told everything that
the usual run of idiots who are afraid
to buy anything themselves do tell
people who buy real estate. Anyhow
she paid $4,000 for the land, has been
selling it out gradually since, and the
other day closed out the remainder.
She has gotten out of it about $4,000.
There are plenty of chances right now
for you to do the same thing. Prop
erty in and around Savannah will in
crease more rapidly in the future than
it has in the past. If you want good
solid investments that will pay you
from to u per cent, 1 can show them
to you. If you want a home it can
be supplied, or If you want some lots
that will make you some money, let
me know. You don't need much money
to buy piece Of property. 1 can fix
anything you want on such easy
terms that you won't feel it. Send a
postal, tell me what you are looking
for and let me show you property and
tell you the terms. John l.. Archer,

FIREBUG'S FUTILE EFFORT.
Tried to Burn DIR. Cochran's ONCE
with Kerosene.

An unsuccessful attempt was made
last night TO burn the building at No.
Is Liberty street. west. occupied by
DR.. U. Cochrape. The doctors offices
are on the second floor where some val
liable apparatus is kept. 1t was with
in a foot of a costly electrical machine
that the fire was started.
Kerosene oil had been literally
sprinkled about the room and around
the machine that generates electricity.
The fire was discovered by a negro
woman in the basement of the house,
and was extinguished with wet tow
els. before much damage had been
done. small piece of mating on the
floor in the front room was burned,
but the machine was uninjured. DR..
Cochran was at the theater when the
fire was discovered, and police head
quarters was notified.
Detectives Stark, Murphy and Wall
visited the offices and made an inves-
tigation. A bottle partly filed with
kerosene was found in a back room in
the house. and the officers think that
it was left in the room by the person
who started the blaze. The officers
could find no clue that would warrant
them in making an arrest, and the case
was turned over to Fire Marshal
