Albert Williams, the negro who has
been staying at the city prison during
the cold snap, was sent to Kansas City
this morning by Commissioner Hale.
Williams was unable to work. and the
city got tired of feeding him.
1t has been discovered that the for
eigner Anton Bajc, who was so badly
frozen Sunday night before he was
picked up by officer Simpson, can speak
the Hungarian language, and Hun
garian citizen was sent for this MORN
ing to converse with him.. The ply
sicians at the hospital have announced
that Bajc's feet, which were badly
frozen may be saved and an amputa-
ton averted. Bajc has truly seen some
hard luck. With money in his pocket
he was unable to ask to be directed to
a hotel and might as well have been
lost in a wilderness. His only hope was
to find a relative or someone who could
speak his language, and he had not yet
succeeded when night and the severe
cold overlook him. He would have
frozen to death had the policeman not
found him when he did.
The present run of business is no
great inducement to Police Judge Ma
gaw, and he will probably wait until
the first of the month before taking
charge of affairs. He has made no ar
rangement with Judge Lindsay for the
transfer of authority.

Insurance Figures.

Few people have any idea of the
enormity of the insurance business
of the United States. 1t not only
exceeds that of any other country,
but is twice as great as that of all
the rest of the world combined. At
the present time there is in the
United States about $12,00o,000,-
600 of life insurance in force, in
GLIDING assessment business, says
Leslie's Weekly. This means over
$160 for every man, woman and
child in the country, or $500 for ey-
cry family. The annual risks writ
ten by the fire insurance companies
are estimated at $20,ooO,0o0, which
is $3.50 per capita, or $3.50 per
family. Thus it will be seen that
every family in the country on. an
average has insurance assets of over
$1,000.

Menelek,s cIocks.

The Emperor Menelek, among his
other hobbies, takes great interest
in clocks, and several chronometers
have recently been imported from
Switzerland by NJ. Zig, his Swiss adj
wiser, which vary no more than six
seconds in two months. Ras Ma
konnen has also ordered several GU
rious mechanical clocks from Swiss
firms for presentation to the negus
and the empress. The most remark
able of these is a. great Ginning
clock to initiate that of st. Marga-
ret's, Westminster, London.

ealIoonlng In a thunderstorm.

Two German aeronauts, DIR. Mic
the and Lieutenant Hildebrandt, re-
Gently had remarkable experience
in the heart of thunderstorm.
They assembled from Tegel at 8
o'clock in the afternoon and, pass
ing through a mist, came suddenly
into thundercioud. From a height
of $50 feet the balloon was shot a
mile upward, and then as suddenly
it dropped half a mile. They make
the curious statement that although
they did not see the lightning they
were deafened by the thunder, while
pelted with rain, hail and sleet. The
balloon leaped and plunged SO swift
ly that at times the car was on a
level with the gas bag and the tow
rope was above their heads. After
about half an hour of this expert
ence the balloon fell from height
of 1900 feet, descending upon a
thick wood of beeches, branches of
which broke the fall and saved the
lives of the Adventures.

MARY MAcLANE AND A TIP.

Among the little foibles of the
remarkable young lady from Butte
is one which is told by former sec
rotary of Edmund Clarence Sted-
man, who lunched with Mary Mac
Lane at downtown restaurant re-
Gently. After lunch was over Mary
MacLane said to her friend:
Now, you just let me fix the tip
the way want"
Then Mary signaled the waiter
and, producing a quarter, said
blandly:
waiter, I'll match you for the
tip
With a look of astonishment on
his face the waiter produced a quar-
ter and laid it down. Mary won.
Then, with the same calm air, she
continued:
'sNow III match you for that
quarter"
Mechanically the astounded wait
er deposited his quarter. Again the
luck favored Mary, and she quietly
pocketed the coin.
''You see, my dear" said she to
her companion, "we really do things
better in Butte. New Y ork Times.

Maximum Value Of Land.

The maximum values of land in
the north Atlantic states were
reached in 1880, and the falling off
during the past decade has been
specially marked. In the south At
lantic and south central states farm
values reached a high mark in 1860.
The heavy drop OF ten years later
reflects the havoc of civil war. Since
that time the trend of values in
these states has been upward. In
the west the values have rapidly adj
yanced. The only apparent excep-
ton is.the last decade. But the low
Ter figures for 1900 are due to the
large amount of cheap land thrown
open to the public. Mahin's Maya

Plueky Mrs. Seton.

Ernest Seton, whose studies of
animal life have delighted SO many
readers, for twenty years has been
noting by word or sketch every
small fact he discovered. Among
them are innumerable footprints Of
wild animals, most of which he gives
Mrs. Seton credit for Obtaining.
She has often gone into an animals
cage IN the New York zoo and, with
the keepers assistance, cajoled the
creature into walking to and fro on
light brown paper which would
show its tracks. y

A Tale From the kenao.

A returned missionary told a
grisly little tale the other day. He
said that in the Kongo country,
from which he had just come, when
a chief died a series of deep holes is
made around his grave. In each
hole one of the dear departed's
wives is placed upright, her chin
coming just to the surface. The
earth is tucked snugly in around
her throat, and she is left to her
own meditation and starvation.

none is admitted but those born on
Feb. 90. The members will keep
their next ce.nlnoTf birthday in
great style in 1904, for they will not
have had birthday for eight years,
as the extra day in February was
omitted in 1900, according to the

Home Notes.
The president of the Society of
