Won By Chess.

1 From the New York Times.
 Capt. Charles E. Clark, who has just been appointed by President Roose- welt to represent the navy at King Edwards coronation, is one of the most skillful chess players in the United States. Indeed, it was Captain | Clarks prowess at chess which led to his selection to command the battle | ship Oregon during the memorable voyage around the Horn in 1896, and which is consequently responsible for his present appointment.
 Before Captain Clark's selection to command the Oregon he was in charge of the gunboat Bennington, which was | frequently stationed in San Francisco bay His favorite rendezvous when on shore was the social room of the Mer- cantile Library Club of that city. Numbers of adroit chess players con- gregated there, but no matter how adept, they all went down in defeat before Captain Clark. When engaged in a game he played with great in- 1 tensity. Precipitation bathed his fore head, and invitations to refreshments were unheeded. There was never any money at stake, but the captain played as if struggling for a fortune. This trait of doing thoroughly what ever he set out to accomplish was considerably talked about and, finally, reached the ears of the officials of the navy department. When, therefore, the time came to select man to guide the Oregon on her long journey the name of Captain Clark was promi- nently mentioned.
 Did you ever see him play chess ?" urged one of the advocates of Clark's appointment, who then proceeded to describe the captains intense and de- termined application when engaged in the game
 eff any man." he added, "can pilot that battleship safely through the Pa cific and bring it promptly into action it's Clark"
 A few hours later orders were sent to Captain Clark to command the Ore gon and to sail with her for Cuban waters. Thus did strategy at the chess board pave the way for subse- Quent distinction.

sicaa the Trust Killed the Bicycle
 Business.
on the roston Advert,ser

From the Boston Advertiser.
 The convention of the L. A. ". at Tor rington, Ct, was something like ru- neral The dispatches from that cheer less meeting said that the reports showed that the league had shrunk over 50 per cent in membership but that is putting the case too mildly. Former Boston offi- cials of the league said yesterday that the shrinkage Is nearly 90 per cent in less than four years. In 1898 the league membership was 1O3.O0O It is now 10,5Oo Four years ago there were 50 newspapers in the United States devoted to cycling interests. Now those 50 have dwindled to one. Four years ago there were B cycling clubs in Boston that were active in enrolling members, in holding club runs, etc. Now who ever hears of a cycling club?
 What is the reason for this tremendous change? The question was put yesterday to Secretary Bassett and to a number of Boston men who were once prominent in the L. A. w. Their answers were pretty nearly unanimous. The bicycle business ttle l.. A. w., the general interest in bicycling began to die together when the bicycling advertising business stopped When the Bicycle Trust began to take shape, the managers of the trust decided that, as they controlled the business any way, the advertising could be and should be cut down. If they had hunted around for a club to kill their own business, they could not have hit upon a surer one.

Teddy Has His Fathers Traits

Washington, February 2S-Theodore Roosevelt Jr.. although but a lad of II years, has a strong individuality, and possesses many of the impressive char acteristIcs of his father. Those who know him best say that from his earliest child hood he has displayed determ imitation and grit in everything he has undertaken, not In an offensive or precocious man. ner, but with an earnestness and serious ness which oftentimes beat down stubborn opposition.
 He was born at Oyster Bay, L. T., and after receiving rudimentary instruction at his mothers knee he was entered in the public school at the age of years It was the primary department of what is familiarity known as Cove School While Theodore was a good student, he did not always excel in his classes, but he managed to hold good average with his little schoolmates. When his father became governor and went to reside in Albany little Theodore was entered at the Albany Boys Academy, where he made a very good record. This is his sec ond year at Groton, where he is preparing for Harvard. He stands No. 2 in his form consisting of 40 boys.
 Although of slight figure, he has an ex- cellent constitution and has been exempt from many of the illnesses which com @ during the years of childhood, He Is de- voted to out-of-door sports of all kinds, and while not regarded as a leader among his school fellows, he is looked upon as one of the most earnest and gritty players in any of the field games in which he engages. Baseball, football, cross country running and sparring have been his chief sports while at Groton. In spite of the fact that he inherits from his father the affliction of near-sighted-

Why He Kept a Dog.
} Philadelnhia Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
 A prominent dog fancier and wealthy man of Philadelphia stepped into a gro- cery the other night and accidentally stumbled over a fat old German, who was sitting in corner sn,okinG his pipe. Under his chair was the most remark ahle specimen of dog that the gentle man had ever seen. It had the appear ance of a pug, with rough red hair and B long tail. It was impossible to resist laughing at the placid old man and his nondescript dog.
 What kind of a dog is that" asked the gentleman. T don't know" replied the German. 'I suppose you use him for hunting?' "No."
 ''Is he good for anything?"
 ''No."
 ''Then why do you value him so?"
 Because he likes me-" said the old fel- low, still puffing at his pipe, and the ex- pression of the dog as he looked up from under the chair fully confirmed the Ets tement.
 ''There is no better or stronger reason than that" asserted the gentleman em- phathcally as he walked away

ness. he surprised all of his schoolmates : last year by winning a place in the semi finals in the school sparring contest
 One of his relatives in speaking of him recently said: Little Theodore has grown like a weed during the past two years. He is quite five feet tall and as thin as a rail" Like all of the average American boys. he has given and taken some hard knocks at school and his record Is not to his discredit from any point. While not aggressive. he knows what Is coming to him, and he generally makes a strong bid to secure his just dues.
 There is nothing spectacular either in his appearance or his manner. While al- ways a neat, comfortable dresser. his fancieS run in the direction of books and personal observation rather than in the direction of stylish clothes. Ordinarily he is rather inclined to diffidence and slow to make close personal friends. His friendships while not numerous or pro- miscuous, are sincere and lasting.
 Already he begins to display a strong tendency to become a disciple of John
 Burroughs. Books of bird and animal
 life are his greatest delight. One of the
 events of his life, so he regards 1t, was a recent visit to the home of John Bur
 roughs, the patron saint of Nature
 Among his most cherished recollections
 were his walks and talks with MT. Bur roughs during the memorable visit. His scant collection of books can hardly be digniied by the term library" Never
 theless some of his most prized works are by well known authorities on the sub | ject of botany and ornithology.
 When home from school one of his greatest delights Is to receive an invita- tion from his father to salSe tramp out into the country. He is familiar with nearly all of the shrubs and plants to be found in the woods in these latitudes and he discusses these subjects with the intel | ligence of one many years his senior.

RUN OVER BY A WAGON.
Robert Walters Suffers Broken Leg
in RUNAWAY

Robert Walters Suffers Broken Leg
in Runaway.
Robert Walters, a well known
rancher of the lower valley had the
misfortune to have his leg broken in
a runaway Tuesday afternoon. The
team was standing near the Touring
mill ON the west side and becoming
frightened they started to run. Wal
ters had just jumped from the wagon
and when the started he made a
grab for the lines, but fell and the
heavy wagon passed over his leg,
breaking it near the ankle. DR.. Lamb
was summoned and rendered the nee
essary surgical attention, after which
Mr.. Walters was taken to his home
about seven miles south of Kalispell.
The team was stopped after going a
short distance without any damage
being done to either horses or wagon.

this city, was married in Spokane
yesterday to George w. Lang of that
city Mr. Lang was formerly resi-

ployed in the plumbing department
of the M NJ. company. For the past
year, however, he has been making
his home in Spokane, with the excep-
ton of occasional visits to Kalispell.
The wedding was somewhat of a sur
prise to the many friends of the con-
tracing parties, who extend their
sincere wishes for long life of hap
piness.

Mr.. Heinze spoke quite entertain
ingly for about an hour. The quar-
tette having preceded him with most
enjoyable melodies again delighted
the audience with topical campaign
songs, and were repeatedly encored.
Only slight allusion was made to
local politics by Mr.. Heinze, and
without naming any of the legislative
ticket of this county, he urged his
hearers to vote for the democratic
nominees.
Sam Pratt, the Libby stalwart, who
fell fighting for Heinze, presided at
the meeting, and was seconded by
j. K. Miller of Columbia Falls, no To-
cal politicians putting in an appear
ance on the stage, all of the central
committee and candidates having
fed with Andrew Jackson to the tall
timber to meet other engagements.
Mr.. Heinze and party made a stop
at Columbia Falls, Tuesday noon,
and left that place for Kalispell by
special train, arriving here in the
early evening.
An undeniable impression was made
by Mr.. Heinze, and were he himself
candidate it might be safe to assert
that he had made converts, but as
his particular theme was the Anal
gamated and Mr., Clark, and it is
conceded that those two powers con-
trolled both state conventions, the
intelligent voter is still bordering

by the federal authorities for dis
seminating obscene literature through
the United States mails, meaning
