THAT TRAP SHOOT
DIDN'T COME OFF
NASTY WIND KEPT SPORT SMEN

spEcIA. TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.

Anaconda, Nov. 29.--It was the inten-
ton of some of the local trap shooters
and members of the Anaconda Gun club
to hold Thanksgiving shoot at the
grounds west Of the city yesterday. A
number Of the members Of the Butte Rod
and Gun club came over to join in the
sport. Arrangements had been made 10
shoot for the Butte Rod and Gun club
medal for singles and for the Klepetko
challenge medal for doubles.
When the gentlemen arrived at the
grounds, however, the wind was blowing
perfect gale and as this was sure to
make low scores. it was decided TO wait
until the wind subsidized. The wind. how
ever, refused to leave the field, and the
practice shoots which were began lasted
until nearly evening. 1t was thought best
to postpone the medal events until some
future date, when more favorable condi-
tons will no doubt prevail.
Among the Butte sportsmen who came
over were {. II. Smith, Dan Yancey and

He is Noah," answered St. Peter.

OBITUARY.
John C. Crimmins.

John c. Crimmins, for several years
a member of the police force, died sud
denly yesterday morning at his home
on Gordon street, near Price He had
not been in good health for several
years and death was due to heart fail
ure.
Crimmins secured his appointment
on the police force because of an act
of bravery. He distinguished himself
in the big Yamacraw riot, and be-
cause of the services that he render
ed on the side of the law and order
upon that occasion, he was named as
a member of the police force. He re-
tired from the force while serving I'M

He had gotten up and was suddenly
taken with a coughing spell. Before
medical aid could be summoned he hac

held for purposes of instruction and
for charitable purposes, and the right
of the church to land the title to which
is now in the government, but upon
which buildings for religious purposes
have been built. 1t is hoped that when
a full understanding of the claims and
views of each side has been reached
and the facts are fully understood, all
the questions existing can be settled
in such a way as to benefit both par
ties. The object of this conference is
to secure the separation of church and
state, and 1T would seem to be a
condition precedent to such a result.
Gov. Taft's errand is not in any sense
a diplomatic mission it is simply a
business transaction with the owners of
property. The whole matter is in Gov.
Tafts hands, subject to such action as
may be taken on his report pursuant
to any law Congress may pass. He
will have the assistance of Judge
Smith of the Philippine Supreme Court,
who is returning with him to his post
of duty, and Maj John Biddle Porter
has been detailed to act as secretary to
the governor until he has finished his
work in Rome"
Any arrangement effected for the
purchase of the lands is subject to the
ratification of Congress, which must
provide the necessary legislation.

INSIDE THE GROCERY.
Some Facts Made known.

1t is often thought that grocers re-
food value of articles they sell, but the
real facts are that grocery keepers of
the right sort are extremely particular
as to what they recommend.

attacks, and after little observation
attributed them directly to coffee.
Every time l left off drinking ii l got
better, but I felt the need of a warm
drink for breakfast.
Along in sc a wholesale grocer urged
me to put in some Postum Food Coffee
in my store, which did with consider
able misgiving. for at that time, the
now famous Postum was not so well
known.

something about following directions

we had not boiled it long enough. only
three or four minutes, but it must be
boiled fifteen minutes at least. so we
tried it again, with the result that we

and healthful beverage. / have contin-

THE MINORITY SUBSTITUTE.

Democrats of House and senate
Agree on a Philippine Government
Bill.
Washington, May 10.-As a result
of numerous conferences between DEM
ocratic senators and representatives 1t
is expected that a measure on the po-
litical status of the Philippines will be
Houses and introduced in each House
as a Democratic substitute for the
Philippine civil government bill.
Senators Rawlins, Patterson and
Carmack have been acting
for the senators, and Represen-
taf1ves Jones of Virginia and Williams
of Mississippi for the Democrats on the
Insular Committee of the House. 1t
was stated to-day by one of the con-
ferees that although the meetings were
still in progress a general understand
ing has been reached on certain main
features of concession on each side.
The House members objected to the
Democratic measure in the Senate,
which provided for a joint protectorate
over the Philippines by the United
States, Great Britain, Germany, and
other countries entering into treaty
agreement for such protectorate. 1t
is understood that this provision
will be eliminated or much modified.
On the other hand, the senators object
ed to the House provision imposing
constitution on the Philippines during
a period preceding independence. This
provision also will be modified. In
other respects the joint Philippine bill
will combine the main features of the
Democratic bills in the Senate and
House, providing for ultimate indie
pendence of the islands.

brandy face. The continued excessive
use of either whiskey or brandy will
mark the face with little red lines but
the general appearance of the whiskey
face is unlike that of the face of Il
brandy user. BarkeeperS are able to
notice these differences. They are we'll
defined. 1t would not be noticed in the
weak, watery condition and discolora-
ton of the eyes. But the complexion
and other marks would be found on
the face which would indicate whether
the man was in the habit of drinking
the one kind of thing or the other.
The same thing may be said about
other kinds of drinks. Take the man,
for instance, who drinks beer regular
ly. The barkeepers an tell it by what
may be called the mellow cast of his
features. Beer gives the face an ell
tirely different hue from that which
results from the long use of either
brandy or whiskey. l am sometimes
inclined to think that beer has a sort
of Matchmaking influence. l have seen
englishmen, Frenchmen and even tai
ians drink beer until they looked litH
they had just come from the Father
land. 1t is an easy thing to tell the
beer drinker just from the appear
ance of his face. 1 may say the same
thing about the man who drinks 40
sinthe The indications are probahy
more pronounced in the case of me
man who uses absinthe than in other
cases. The things entering into tac
combination are stronger and have a
more violent effect on the human 81 s-
tenn.
But at airy rate. the barkeeper can
tell just what the man is in the HABIT
of drinking if he will make study NJ
the faces. The brandy face, the whls-
key face, the beer face, the absinthe
face are all different, and the lines are
easily traced by the man who will take
the trouble t. study the effects Of d.
ferent drinks for a while"

BILE
Secretary Moody found after con-
sultation with Assistant Secretary Hill,
that Il would be safe to take the Gin
cinnati away from San Domingo. The
reason for this belief was the follow
ing cablegram received from United
States Consul Maxwell at San Domin-
go City:
The situation in San Domingo is
improving. The provisional govern
ment has been announced at the sea-
ports and for the most part, in the in
terror. All executive affairs are under
the provisional government and Vas
quez is the provisional president"
1t is possible that the Potomac al
ready has left San Juan for Marti-
nique, Gut there is doubt on this point
because the Navy Department has not
yet been able to secure a response to
an inquiry sent by cable this morning
to the commandant of the naval sta
ton at San Juan.
AS further precautionary measure,
Secretary Moody sent the following
telegram to the commandant of the
Brooklyn yard:
Order Dixie to prepare for sea as
soon as practicable. Report when she
can be made ready"
The Dixie is a ship of considerable
carrying capacity. and would be bet
ter fitted than any of the regular
naval ships to hasten to Martinique
with relief supplies. which probably
can be obtained more readily at New
York than at any of the West Indian
Islands.
AS a still further measure of help
the state department to-day cabled to
United States Consul Ayme at Guada-
loupe to proceed at once to Martinique
to report upon the conditions there and
inform the United States government
what help was needed.
