Helena, Mont, April 4.-F Augustus
Heinze is emphatic in his denial of the
report that he is behind the strike Of
Amalgamated Copper company engineers,
which has resulted in closing almost all

1t Is reported that the Amalgamated
company, while not ayerse to shutting
down during the present dullness in the
copper market, prefers to keep going as
matter of self-protection for fear that
ore might be illegally taken from it's
mines if they were closed.

New York, April 4.-St. Paul and Nnion
Pacific were again features in the stock
market and reached new high points for
the present move. Less was heard of al
legged deals between these and other COM
panies, ond more was said about the inn
proved outlook for crops.
Some credence was given on the stock
exchange TO the theory that operators
who have started In to put up prices were
assuming several weeks In advance that
the weather conditions will be favorable
and were wiling to take great specula-
tive chances, believing that if the upward
movement is kept UP long enough the pub
lie would come in and buy, as it has FREE
quently done in the past. Advices received
from trustworthy correspondents of Wall
street houses in Kansas. Oklahoma and
certain other sections were in the main
to the effect that the condition Of winter
wheat is considerably below that of a
year ago, and that under the most favor
able circumstances the crop in those
states is not likely to be so large as last
year.

\ sigh of relief will go up among all
lovers of the national game at the re-
tirement of Andrew Freedman from the
ownership of the New York club in the
national league. Whatever Mr.. Freed
mans abilities may be. it has been
painfully apparent for some years past
to lovers OF sport throughout the coun-
try. that he has not the qualifications
for successful baseball magnate.
Very early in his regime he won the
disfavor of most of the members of the
press in his city. and has been in con-
fiict most OF the time with more or less
of his associates, Mr.. John r. Brush is

Spain's Unhappy Condition.

The troubles of Spain in the past
few years have not been confined to the
foreign war by which it lost its last
American and Asiatic possessions. Its
Internal difficulties have no less seri-
ously affected it's welfare, and the Eu-
rOpean dispatches indicate that they
are now reaching climax which may
mean revolution. 1t is not neces-
sary to accept as truth all the graphic
details which come from Madrid re-
garding the conduct of the boy King
and his strained relations with his
mother. 1t may not be that she has
secretly married again or that he has
driven her from the palace. 1t may
not be that one out of ten of the stories
told of his designations and eccentrici-
ties are based on fact. But there is
enough truth at the bottom of it all to
make it plain that the relations of the
royal family are most unhappy, and
that the Kings advisers and the Span
lsh masses are stirred with deep dis
content.
Neither Spain nor the world has a
right to expect much of Alfonso XIII.
His father was man of weak physique
and most dissipated habits His
grandmother was Queen Isabella who
hated her husband and made LITTLE pre-
tense of leading decent life His
mother is a good woman and during
her regency played a difficult part with
skill but her influence seems to have
been hopelessly lost. The sickly bow
King appears to be stupid. stubborn
and dissipated and such a ruler has j t
in his power to work much mischief
and even provoke a revolution. The
Spanish dynasty has been greatly
weakened with the people by the losses
OF territory which Spain has suffered.
There are several instances in history
to show that the kingly idea in Spain
easily reaches it's limits. 1t is only a
generation ago that this boys grand
mother was driven out of Spain with
little ceremony. and his father was
placed on the throne only by the skill
ful manouvering of few military men.
Little Alfonso is not i'm position to he
envied by any boy in free America.

Michiqans New Senator.

1t seems well settled that General
Russell A. Alger will be appointed hy
Michigan's governor to succeed the
late Senator Mcmillan. who died Sc
suddenly. few weeks ago, at his sum-
mer home on the Massachusetts shore
and that the Legislature when it meets
VIII elect him to that position. Nu-
merous men were mentioned as Mr.
McMillan's successor. but there seems
to have been very little real opposi-
ton to General Alger. Michigan has
long had warm spot in it's heart for
MIN. He is its most distinguished cit
izen, an exceptionally successful BUSH
ness man. and enjoys the possession of
many amiable and attractive personal
qualities. 1t is true that he was not
wholly successful in the administra-
ton of the war department during the
Spanish War. but most of the criti.
cism which was aimed at him should
nave been directed at the system which
had been evolved during years when
the country did not dream of a foreign
war, and which resulted in utter lack
OF preparation to meet such a crisis.

Luck tapped upon cottage door,
A gentle. quiet tap;
And laziness, who lOunged WITHIN.
The cat upon his lap.
Stretched out his slippers TO the nre
And gave sleepy yawn; -
"Oh, botheri let him knock again.
He said; but Luck was gone.
Luck tapped again more family sun
Upon another door.
Where Industry was hard at work
Mending the cottage floor;
The door was opened wide at once.
Z Come in.' the worker cried,
And Luck was taken by the hand
And fairly pulled inside.
He still is there-a wondrous guest
From out whose magic hand
Fortune flows fast-but LazinesS
Can never understand
How Industry found such a friend;
Luck never came my way:
He signs, and quite forgets the knock
Upon his door that day.
