ITS G SEASON.
Miles City Makes New Mark in Wool
Receibts.

Miles City Makes New Mark in Wool
Receipts.
from Fridays Daily Gazette.
The wool season in Custer county is
about over. 1t is not known that
there are any clips yet to come in,
either among the freight handlers or
at the woolhouse, says the Yellow
stone Journal.
The prediction was made early in
the season that Miles City would pass
the three million mark in the amount
of wool which would be handled at
the warehouse. This. prediction has
been amply verified, as the amount of
wool received was 3,375,00O pounds.
OF this amount all but about 100000
pounds has been shipped, and that is
being done as fast as the cars can
be loaded.
All but two clips namely Dave Mel
sons and that Of Kalfell & Townsend,
f Terry, have been sold OF consigned.

J.. w. Gates Says the Great F~tnancier
Is Yet In His Infancy.
John w. Gates, who was a passenger
on the first twenty hour train to Chica-
go from New York, talked freely to the
reporter for the New York Journal,
who was also making the trip.
I'm a very few years." said he, call

or four great systems. The Vanderbilts
will own one, the biggest; Hartman
will be at the head of another, and
we'll, Jim Hill, the greatest of all rail-
readers, has his nov Railroad stocks
will become so valuable they will be
wiped out Of the market"
Speaking of j. Pierpont Morgan and
court dress, Mr.. Gates said:
"Well, he wanted to see the king, and
when you're in Rome you must do as
the Romans do. would have done it,
and l would look fine in short trousers.
Morgan is the greatest financier the

nothing for distinction. He has a big
mind and big ideas, and he gets his en-
joyment in life by working them out.

"Ue has schemes vaster than any the
public has vet dreamed of. and they
will all be carried out successfully. In

he make money for all of them. Hun

rich merely by following suggestions
made by him. He is willing to let 9th

come Il Millionaire.
"Of course it may seem u~ndemocrat-
ic to many for Morgan to appear in
court dress. but you can bet that he
didn't humble himself before the king.
He is an American to the core, and his
greatest ambition is to see his own

writes the Princeton correspondent of
the Philadelphia Press.
Many of Princeton's young alumni
of the early nineties will recall Pro
fessor Wilson's first year as a member
of the faculty. This was in 1890. and
a custom was then in vogue among
the undergraduates to find out how
easy" a new prof. was. An alum
nus tells the following story:
"One morning O after Professor
Wilson had assumed his new duties he
was about 4, o begin his lecture when
he noticed a drunken Irishman rise
from one of the front seats and begin
to perform a few antics for the edi-
fcation of this contingent of Old Mas
sau's sons. The lecturer stepped down
from the platform and accosted the
son of. Erin thus:
"'Who asked you to come in here.
sir"
""The Shtoodents invoited me in
came the prompt though rather trem-
ulous reply.
"Well. I'll invite you out again."
said Professor Wilson. and. taking the
intruder by the coat collar. he hustled
him down the stairs three steps, at a
time.
Suffice it to say" said the alum
nus. that the lecture went through as
usual. and one lesson learned that day
has always been remembered by six
score of students who are now out in
the wide, wide world"
Last winter a Princeton man was
told the following story by one of his
friends. Il minister. who lives near
Washington. N. j.:
zone day. not long ago, while l was
in a certain well known bookstore in
New York looking ver some publica-
lions. l fell into a short conversation
with a gentleman who was also look
ing through some books. During the
conversation l remarked that l had re.
Gently been reading some Of Woodrow
Wilson's works and enjoyed them SO
much that l was anxious to see a pho.
tograph of the author. This gentle
man said he thought l would be able
to find a picture of the man in a GER

He left the store. and l proceeded to

Rev j. II. ShOup Has Something to Say
Concerning Incurable Diseases.
To the Editor of The Republican.
We have been led into serious re-
Election, within few days by the sad
intelligence of the untimely death of
valued young kinswoman in central
Pennsylvania through that startling
ly prevalent malady, consumption.
These reflections have forced me to
PROFOUND the question. as it right
that in thousands of instances, con-
siderations of economy, or conserya-
tism or social prejudice should be al
lowed to stand in the way of seeking
relief and restoration through a So
journ in a mild climate.
There is not, so far as my knowl-
edge extends, any other civilized ma
ton in the world among whose peo-
pie this malady is SO very common
and so largely fatal. But whether in
this [ am right or wrong, the fact is
plainly and most impressively before
us, that all over the northern States,
as in Canada, high per cent. of es-
pecially our youthful element of pop
ulation, is annually carried off by
consumption. Just why America
should be scourged by this malady
beyond other countries, may not be
easily explained (if in fact it really isl;
but our carelessness in housing and
rushing outdoor life, would no doubt
have much to do in the matter. The
marvellous increase of population in
our country is our pride and the
worlds wonderment; but how inspeak
able the pity that at least five to
seven per cent. of our promising
young manhood and womanhood
should annually be claimed in sacra-
flee to this Unsuitable Molochl Surely
any plan by which considerable pro-
portion of these victims might be
saved to home and country, should
be gladly adopted by our people And
who in this would venture to scout
the idea of benefit to this special dis
ease from climatic change. Hundreds
of instances annually go on record to
prove the assumption. In our own
observation the fact has stood before
US again and again in joyful confirma-
ton during our sixteen years in the
balmy Southland. And no greater
JOY has come to us from any source
during these years that from the con-
seriousness that it has been our privil-
eye in at feast few instances, to bear
an humble, but very willing part in
bringing health back to afflicted ones.
AT the same time no keener regrets
have been felt by us than have come
from the many sad, regretful letters
as the one alluded to above-inform-
ing us that proposed notwithstanding
visit was TOO long delayed. Scores of
persons are now soiourning in our
city and Colony, who would be ready
to bear joyful witness that they are
daily breathing into healing lungs
new lease of life. May Heaven has
ten the day when multitudes of our
lung-sore northern friends shall show
a ready willingness to exchange bit
of their greater wealth for much of
our greater health.

president addressed them from stand.
The night was passed at Hot Springs and
the run from there this morning was un-
eventfu.
A short stop was made at Marshall,
the home of Senator Prchard, where a
large number of people had assembled.
The president thanked them for their
greeting. At Asheville he was met by
reception committee of which Charles
McNamee was chairman.
Mayor Miller, Senator Prichard and
Congressman Moody we're among those
who greeted the president, the members
of the committee being introduced to
the president in his car by Senator
Prichard.
Carriages were in waiting and under

confederate veterans with their little flags,
and two companies of state militia and
the first regiment band the party started
for the court house square.
At Battery park the school children

cheers.

The president spoke of the pleasure it
gave him to speak before the monument Of
the late Senator Vance, which is near the
stand. He was glad he said, to meet tho
people whose forefathers had fought under
Marion; glad to be greeted by men who
served in the confederate army. He told
of his visit Sunday to the battlefield of
Chickamauga and repeated the declaration
that the man would be poor American
who did not come from the scenes COM
memorating the valorous deeds of those
armies a better American. He told Of
serving under Wheeler in Cuba and said
that yesterday he met an old man who
served in the confederate army.
II was one of Wheeler's boys" said the
veteran.

u think it is good thing" he said,
"for an American president to have the
chance to travel through different sections
of the country, because it is mighty good
thing for any American to meet his fel-

realize how trivial are the points of un-
likeness and how essential are the points
of likeness. A good American is a good
American, whether he came from the
north, the south. the east or the wcst.''
