Peter Larson, of Helena, the millionaire
miner and railroad contractor, accom-
panied by his side partner, r. L. Green
bOugh, also of Helena, were at the Ryan
yesterday. Mr.. Greenbough left for lie
West last night, and Mr. Larson will leave
for Winnipeg this morning, from where
he will continue his journey to the coast
The career of Mr. Larson has been Il
remarkable one in many ways. Fifteen
years ago he was practically unheard of
in the mining world, and as a railroad
contractor, which was his calling then,
he was not well known. But things are
changed now. Out in the West, they con-
slider Mr.. Larson pretty well fixed" and
what is more they consider him a self
made man.
Fifteen years ago." said Mr.. Larson
to T e G o b e last night, 81 did not
possess a share Of mining stock, and what
success have had since that time in
the accumulation of the worlds wealth,
attribute wholly to the excellent oppor-
tunity that presented itself in the mines
of the West.
""The time is not far distant when the
mining industry viii be the only industry
for the West. 1t will be the re-making
of the West. The industry is stable and
the mines are tnexhaustible.
cone of the first mines which Mr..
GreenbOugh and myself invested in WIS
the Morning claim, located in the Court
land country, Idaho. We own the prop
erty still. We came in possession Of
that claim over ten years ago, and for
over eight years, it has been turning out
lead and silver at a paying rate. It pays
better today than it did a year ago, and
it will pay better a year from now than
it does at the present time That is the
beauty Of the mines of the West" said
he. "They extend down further tnan we
or our children will ever be able to
descend. The Morning claim turns out
from 600 TO 200 tons Of crude metal per
day. After going through the smelters
and re1ineries this amount is reduced to
about 100 tons. At present the mine is
averaging about five pounds of lead pei
ton, and two pounds Of silver. The silver
is worth $40 per pound while the lead is
worth only a few cents. Taken as q
whole the metal goes about $50 to the ton
But the money is not so easy as it
might seem. Just half of this amount
goes TO improving the metal In fact, our
profit is less than 500 per ton, not includ-
ing help, which will cut the amount down
to about 500 per ton profit This would
make the mine return a profit Of 1920 to
81, 400 per day"

ing them to proceed no further with a

FIRE CLAIMANTS
TO RECEIVE MONEY
TEN PER CENT OF AWARDS WILL
BE PAID AT ONCE-wARRANT
ARE READY.

The Executive Council met this
morning and decided among other
things that warrants might issue at
once for the payment of ten per cent
of all fire claims awarus made by the
commission. This is a result of the
decision of the Supreme Court last
Saturday, holding that the fire claims
courts decisions are final.
Deputy Auditor Meyers is ready to is
sue the warrants, and they will prob
ably be given out at once. The pay
1nents will be the first made on account
of the damages by the. big Chinatown
fire. Each recipient of a certificate of
award is entitled to a warrant for ten
per cent of the amount of his award.
The council decided that claimants
should be required to present their
certificates to the Auditor, in exchange
for warrants.
The council also discussed the matter
of delinquent taxes, but no action was
taken. Income and poll tax delinquent
are very heavy and the government
may take special action to make col
lections.

LINCOLN
AND THE CURFEW
EBON NAMESAKE OF THE GREAT
EMANCIPATOR VIOLATED THE
CURFEW LAW.

Abraham Lincoln was before Judge
Wilcox 10 answer a charge of viola ing
the curfew law.
Abraham Lincoln is a little colored
youth who lives out at Waikiki and
sells newspapers. He has very inter-
esting lace, and gentle, courteous man
ners that attract people to him, and he
is probably one of the best known
newsboys on the street. He has an in
genuous air about him that is quite
captivating, and a seriousness of
speech quite unusual either in one of
his age or one of his race.
But Abraham is said to be a regular
night owl. He wants to see things.
and if there is a political meeting go
ing on anywhere in town Abraham is
pretty sure to be there, and in default
of a political meeting or something
going on at the Drill Shed, he finds the
Salvation Army meetings a great at
traction. 1t is no unusual thing to see
him going home at 8 o'clock or after at
night on the tramway cars, for he has
made himself a faVorite with the driV-
ers, and he is one of the few dead
heads in that enterprise. Occasional
ly he goes out on the Rapid Transit
cars, but he does not seem to have
made connections with Mr.. Ballen-
tynes enterprise sufficiently to ride
free on his cars yet
Abraham was arrested for being out
on the street at 8 o'clock this morning
His excuse was that he was going
down town to sell Advertisers, but the
court thought he would have been in
time if he had not started until
o'clock in the morning, which is the
curfew limit, especially as his mother
has repeatedly forbidden him to leave
home so early.
| AS Abraham stood before Judge Will
cox and tried to keep back the sobs
there was an air of dignity about his
pose that was very fetching when his
age and statute were considered.
You're not very big for nine and q
half years DID," said Judge Wilcox
"and I'm afraid the reason is you
| don't sleep enough at night. If yol
want to grow up big and make a goot
! baseball player you want to go to bee
early and not get up quite so early, ant
/ not be roaming about so much at night
Now If you'll promise me to stay al
home lights and mind your mother
I'll letiYou 60"
Abraham sobbingly promised, anC
was allowed to go.
