SCHEME TO SELL WET GOODS.
Lord Sholto Douglass Plan Of Run
ming Saloon.

Spokane, Wash, March 14.-Lord
Sholto Douglass, son of the late Mar.
quis of Queensberry, has bought a sa-
loon here, and is now proprietor and
manager of a mug house down in the
tenderloin. Lady Douglass, formerly
known on the vaudeville stage as Miss
Mooney, is here also. Business not
being very lively, Lord Sholto has
c%oncocted the idea of selling booze
on the endless chain plan. He has is
sued a certificate which he sells for
60 cents. 1t contains six coupons.
The buyer sells each coupon for 10
cents to a friend. The friend goes
to Lord Sholto's gin shop and buys a
new certificate for so cents. When
each of the six people to whom the
first man has sold a coupon returns
to the joint and pays 60 cents for a
certificate, then his lordship gives
$3.50 worth of liquor to the first man,
or will pay him $3.50 cash. Each of
the men buying a certificate is then
in position to get liquor on the same
terms if he can get six of his friends
to buy coupons and certificates.
Lord Sholto said he peddled bicycles
on this plan and cleaned up 100000.

German Government Sees No Uuse
for Accidents Course for Girls.
Berlin, March 17.-During the dis
cussion of the education bill in the
lower house of the diet today, the
minister Of public instruction, DR..
Studt, announced that the government
was willing to permit girls to attend
the existing gymnasiums and also to
establish a girls gymnasium but the
government declined all responsible
ity for the outcome of the scheme.
Regarding the attendance of the
girls at the universities, the minister
said that the government failed to see
that there was any universal need of
academic studies for girls. Therefore,
it adhered to it's decision that they
should only be admitted to UNIVERSE
ties as guests. The government, how
ever, was of the opinion that in order
to maintain the idealistic position of
German women in the home, the in
struction of girls in the high schools
should accord closely with the re-
~quirements of the present time.

CARNEGIE SPEAKS ON BOOKS.
He Declares That Fiction Is Not Good
for the Youth.

He Declares That Fiction Is Not Good
for the Youth.
Andrew Carnegie was the chief
guest and principal speaker at the
seventh annual meeting of the Library
club of New York.
Among other guests were 300 IL
brarians of New York and vicinity.
Mr.. Carnegie said:
81 am much gratified by the appli-
cations of the small rural localities in
the west for libraries. And in this
connection will say that as 1 knew I
would have the pleasure of dining here
last night, felt ought to do some
thing to deserve that pleasure. I
have dealt with about 40 of these ap-
plications today and l am glad to say
that in all except perhaps two cases
| have seen my way to grant them. We
hear a great deal about the influence
of fiction. l have considered the case
most carefully. l would not deprive
the lover of books of his fiction. Any
sort of a book, except one which ex-
ercises a bad influence, is better than
no book, but | believe if a man gives
his fortune to endow Libraries, he
might do we'll to bar fiction less than
three years old"
Mr.. Carnegie quoted Lord Acton as
saying that of all books since the
world began only about 1000 could
lay claim to immortality.
and yet said Mr.. Carnegie, IAN
author is worth the gratitude of the
world if he can make an imprint on
his own generation"

MOVE TO KEEP UP RATES
OWNERS OF LAKE VESSELS NOT
ANXIOUS TO SAIL.
Would Delay Opening the Season I'm.
til May I, instead Of Start
ing April +.

Chicago, March 14.-Just when
shippers were congratulat1ng them
selves on the prospect of lake navi-
cation opening April 1, or nearly a
month earlier than usual, vessel own
ers have started a movement to de-
lay the season until May 1.
The object of the combine is to
raise carrying charges. A general
canvass of vessel owners all over the
lakes is now under way to secure sig
natures to an agreement not to start
out their boats before May l.. With
the present outlook that navigation
will be in full blast by April /, the YES
selmen are fearful that freight rates
will drop to a low notch and it will be
impossible to restore them during the
season. With the business which
would ordinarily be handled in April,
spread through the remaining months
of the season, higher rates would pre-
vail without mourning the heavy ex-
pense of operation during the month
of April.
The United States Steel corpora
ton and other steel companies owning
ships, will not go into the arrange
ment and their boats will be in opera
ton just as soon as the ice is out of
the way.

j.. DUEL TO H A
Winchesters Were Used and the Dis
lance Only Eight Feet.

Salt Lake, March ia special to
the Herald from Reno, New. says a
duel with W~inchesters at eight feet
distance was fought yesterday at
Purdy station on the Nevada, Cali
fornia & Northern railway. The duel
was over a strip of land hardly worth
the ammunition expended.
Reese Evans and A. A. Smith, a
prominent character, were the princi-
pals in the fight, which took place
near Smiths cabin. Smith was shot
twice through the stomach and had
an arm shattered. He lived only long
enough to empty the contents of his
gun into Evans, who died a few hours
afterward.

House..

Washington, March 1.-THE house
today began consideration of the river
and harbor bill. Burton of Ohio made
an extended speech in explanation of
the measure in the course of which he
presented many interesting facts rela-
tive to it. Several others spoke
briefly OF the measure, among them
being Bellamy of North Carolina, who
protested against the treatment his
state had received.
Foster of Illinois and Cochran Of
Missouri discussed the Boer war, crit
icising the majority severely, for fail
ure to allow congress to express the
sympathy of the American people
with the struggling republic. He call.
ed attention to his resolution to invite
Paul Kruger to visit this country,
which he said had been p%igeonholed
by the majority.
When Cochran was speaking, an
elderly lady, in the gallery, with pro-
British tendencies, frequently shook
her fist at the gentleman from Mis-
souri, and at one time became so vio-
lent in her demeanor that one of the
doorkeepers was obliged to admonish
her to keep quiet.
Wachter of Maryland, rising to a
question of personal privilege, regard
ing a charge in which it was said the
speaker had attempted to coerce his
action on the question Of Cuban reci-
procoity by threatening with defeat
an item in the river and harbor bill
in which he was reported Interested.
Wachter denounced the story as an
unqualified %falsehood.
Richardson of T"ennessess made the
point that the question presented was
not one involving personal privilege.
II consider it not only an attack
resumed Wachter, "but a cowardly
attack"

tachments. The government is throw.
ing up entertainments at certain ad-
vantageous points in the center of
the town and from 200 to 300 troops

TREE CULTURE.
Kinds That Grow in the Yellowstone
Valley,

Valley.
L. D. O'Donnell in Stockman and
Farmer: The tree that grows under
all conditions, and is perhaps the
standard tree for eastern Montana, is
the broad leaf cottonwood. Our col
lege friends tell us if we secure the
male tree we will not be bothered with
the cotton, but from the appearance
of the cotton here in the summer the
males must have gone to the wars and
| all been killed.
There is also the narrow leaf cot
tonWood which makes a close shade
and is best adapted to the gravel
soils.
The next in line is the box elder,
a very handsome tree when properly
cared for, good for both shade and
windbreak. 1t is said to equal the soft
maple for making syrup. It should not
be trimmed in spring thereby avoid
ing loss of sap.
The silver leaf maple, a fast grow
err and clean tree, is popular here. 1t
is a better tree for the farm than the
cottonwood or box elder.
The Carolina popular, a handsome,
symmetrical tree, is becoming popu-
lar, and is said to be free from cotton.
The willows, Golden Russian, Red
Willow and the native, all famous as
w~indbreaks, do we'll.
The elm is popular in the city, and
has proved to be as harry as the hardi-
est, making a fine shade tree in a few
years.
The locust is being planted by many
and with it's pretty flowers and peri
fume it attracts the attention of
strangers.
The ash, both native and imported,
as we'll as the Mountain ash, has
shown itself to be hardy and orna-
mental.
The white oak, with its handsome
leaves, has proven the old saying, "As
hardy as the oak" to be true.
The Eastwood, or linden, has shown
it can survive a Montana winter.
The soft maple, while it freezes
back some each winter, still makes
enough growth to make a pretty tree
in the summer.
OF the naples the cut leaf and split
leaf naples seem to be the hardest
The Mountain ash, with it clusters
of handsome red berries, is very nee
essary to make up a pretty yard.
The white birch is grown in nan
yards.
The Lombardy popular, while it
makes a great growth in summer, usu-
ally freezes back winters, and is best
grown in clusters.
The Balm of Gilead, both native and
foreign, does we'll and is grown by
many.
And the most beautiful of all trees,
the Rocky Mountain spruce, when
coaxed down from the mountains, will
stand heat. cold and floods, and is
ornamental both winter and summer.
The same may be said of our native
cedars and pines, which can be trim
med to suit the taste.
The buffalo berry can be made to
grow a hedge as handsome as any
and is also useful as a fruit grower.
The>wild cherry and plum will both
stand transplanting, and do we'll.

be used, but a decision has since been
reached to have the entire outer struc-

HURT MAN, HORSE AND WAGON
Interesting Suit for Damages Tried
i'm City Curt.

i'm City Curt.
The case of G. w. Miller against the
Savannah, Thunderbolt and Isle of
Hope Railway Company was tried in
the City Court yesterday before Judge
Norwood and a jury. During the day
fifteen witnesses were sworn in behalf
of the plaintiff and the defendant.
Miller was driving a wagon along
Indian street when the outfit was
struck by a trolley car and man, horse
and vehicle all more or less injured.
The plaintiff had his leg broken and
received other injuries. 1t was his con-
tention that the accident was caused
by the gross and wanton negligence of
the motorman of the car.
The defendant contended, on the 9TH
er hand, that the accident resulted
from Miller's own careless disregard of
his own safety, in driving squarely
across the path of the approaching car,
of the approach of which he was either
conscious or should have been con-
scious had he observed the ordinary
precautions of a reasonably prudent
man.
The plaintiff was represented by G.
w. Owens and the defendant by Os-
borne & Lawrence. Arguments and the
charge of the court were concluded
yesterday afternoon and the jury re-
tired, with instructions to return YER
dict when court convenes this morning
