much to solve the harvest hand problem.
John Edwards is now using it and

FARMING LANDS.

1t is rather surprising that Shawnee
county should take the first rank in the
total value of it's farming lands. This
is due to the fact that the proximity
of the farm lands to Topeka adds to
their value. 1t is likely that part OF the
assessed value of Shawnee county farm
lands will be cut off by the board of
equalization. because of the great dam
age done along the Kaw valley by the
flood. If this is done, it will probably
place Sedgwick county in the lead for
the highest total assessed valuation OF
farm lands. The five counties in the
state which rank highest in the total
-1--. - fo,v,sro lands are these.

ALABAMA GOLD MINE.
Wall Street Set in a Furry by Dis
covery in South.

COvery III 0outH.
New York, Dec. 30.-Something OF
a furry has been caused in Wall
street, says the World, by the formal
announcement that gold had been dis
covered in Alabama in sufficient
quantities to make the mining of it
profitable. There was more of a fur
ry when it was announced that none
of the stock was on sale. For more
than two years the land has been
worked secretly.
A 2O-stamp mill was erected without
even the knowledge OIL the natives.
Chance led to the discovery of the
vein of ore. A company was form
ed and the stock was bought up by
New York, Philadelphia and Washing
ton capitalists before the news became
public. The value of the ore has been
averaging $36 a ton for the past 60
days, and another 20-stamp mill is
going up. The mine is 20 miles from
Admission, Ala, and 70 miles from
Birmingham. The ledge of ore runs
for a mile and a halt northeast and
southwest. The pay streak varies in
width from two feet to four feet.

VSheriff Hubbard today announced
This appointments for the ensuing
term. T. J. Sayles is retained as un-
der sheriff, while G. w. Harding and
w. N. Holt are appointed deputies. Mr..
Harding succeeds George Robbins as
city deputy and jailer, and Mr.. Hole
will be stationed at Columbus. I'm
der the new arrangement Musselshell
will be without a deputy, the county
commissioners having declined to in
crease the force of the sheriff''s Of
fee to the full number allowed by law
under the county's new classification,
the matter being wholly optional with
the board.
The change of Mr.. Harding from
Musselshell to the city was largely
made in compliance with the often
expressed wishes of the people of that
locality, who for some reason seem to
be averse to having a representative
Of the sheriff's Office stationed there.
On the other hand the residents of
Columbus and the immediate vicinity
have made it a standing grievance
because they had no deputy. By the
reorganization of the force it is be-
lieved that both parties will now be
pleased.

All over Italy social life is character

Here is an anecdote which Mr.. Luigi
Villari relates in italian Life In Town
and Country to illustrate this national
feeling:
An American gentleman who was
spending the winter in Naples had
taken a fiat in a palazzo, the first floor
Of which was occupied by a noble fam
lily in somewhat reduced circlm-
Stances. He noticed to his surprise that
every day he met Il servant going up
or down the stairs carrying a pair of
carriage doors. At last the mystery
was explained. The said noble family
shared IL carriage with some other peo-
pie. bu; each had its own doors with
the family "oa of arms. TO make their
friends believe that thcy both had
carriages.

WILL NOT CONTEST sEATIN THE
HOUSE.
A PLACE He WOULD LIKE
Now Candidate for Clerk Of Senate
Thinks His Chances There
Much Better.

From Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
If any move was contemplated by
the democrats to contest the recent
special election held in the county
all doubt is dispelled by the statement
given out for publication by S. F.
Morse, the defeated candidate, at Hell
ena yesterday.
The Helena Record, received in the
city this morning, contains the follow.
ing upon the subject:
"Gianey F. Morse, who arrived here
at noon from Billings, said yesterday
he had practically given up the fight.
He stated that he was a candidate
for the position of secretary of the
senate and that he thought he had a
better chance to secure that office
than in winning out in the house,
which would be called upon to determ-
inc his contest eventually.
81 am not prepared to state def
nitely what 1 will do in regard to a
contest said Mr.. Morse at the state
house this afternoon, but | am in
clined to make a fight for the position
of secretary of the senate. I believe
that | would stand a better chance for
that Office than I would for the Office
OF representative.
""The house is republican and l re-
90 v~6 tho Cnnotn oc a0rf0fn1vy dow n
cratic. 1t seems to me that it would
be better for me to devote my time to
an effort to secure a position in the
senate.
81 do not believe that l care to
say anything more about the election.
1 think l won it. The one vote on
which we filed notice of protest was
cast by a nan who did not register,
and he had no more right to drop
his ballot in a Yellowstone county bal
lot box than you would have to go and
vote in Carbon county.

ed the matter on a strictly party vote
Does Not Think 1t Fair.
"Do you think it was a fair de-
cision?' was asked.

"'And as to a contest, do you not
think you would get fair treatment
in the house?.

that. You see the house is republi-

Gaze to discuss the matter Of pushing

Plenty Of Campaigning.
"sYes, l certainly had plenty of
campaigning. 1t isn't every man who
has a chance to run for Office the
year round. l had a three months
siege of it,. and there was plenty of
hard work. And when the end of the

precinct whose unofficial returns did
not come in and it kept us in doubt

Mr.. Morse was looking over the
house and senate chambers when in
terviewed. He was with George M.
secretary of state, at the time.
Among his democratic friends a
strong effort to secure his party's sup
port for the secretaryship of the SEN
ate is being made. These hold that
he has shown himself entitled to party
recognition by the strong run he made
in a republican county. He is n of
the most widely known democrats in
the state and has many strong friends
among that party in the upper house,

where Drums Came From.

Drums are probably an eastern idea
introduced by the Crusaders into Eu-
rope. They are frequently mentioned
in the accounts Of the first crusade.
When Edward III. Of England and his
queen made their triumphal entry into
Calais in 1871. 'tambours" or drums
were among the instruments which
were played in their honor. Another
Of these was called "nacaire' or ket-
tledrum, taken, together with its name,
from the Arabs. The poet Chaucer
also mentions this instrument in his
description Of the tournament in THE
knights Tale"
The king generally kept a troop of
these bandsmen or Ministries in his en-
ploy, and we read that Edward II. on
one occasion gave q sum Of GO shillings
to Roger, the trumpeter; Janino, the
nakerer, and others for their perform
ances. Another minstrel was called
the "cheveretter," or player on the bag
pipe.
