CHINESE MINISTER
TO FILE PROTEST
HIS RELATIVES WE'RE DETAINED BY

LATTER WITHIN THE LAW
Three Members OF the Party Were Not
Legally Passported and So Could
Not Enter at Once.

Washington, Oct. The Chinese min
lister is awaiting the return TO Washington
of Secretary Hay, when he will file an
official protest against the treatment ac-
corded his brother LANG lluan, consul
general for the Philippines. and a party
Of ladies who accompanied him. by the
immigration inspector at san Francisco
on their arrival at that city recently.
Although the inspector was instructed
TO facilitate their landing they were de-
tained for some time lually being per
mitted to land after the minister had made
representations to the state department.
The immigration oiilc. ais claim that
their action in the matter was entirely
justified III view OF the fact thai only
two OF the party had passports which
served as means Of identification, as The
law in such cases requires.
Further, they say, there were three mem
bcrs OF the party whose names had not
been previously furnished as being ell
titled to the conrtesics of the port. Those
were Mrs. Chang Chon-fan, wife OF the
Chinese consul at Honolulu, her daughter
and maid. The Chinese minister suDse-

WELCOME TO BOYS
OF THE BALL TEAM
benefit BALL AT COLUMBIA GAR
DENS is ONE OF THE THINGS
BEING PLANNED NOW.
BUTTE IS NOT GROWN BLASE
Winning Of Pennant Two Years Straight
Has Not Made the Local Baseball
Fans Unappreciative.

When the Butte baseball team comes
home it is planned to have little de-
monstration in its honor. Some of the en-
thusiastic fans arc preparing a more sub
stantial way of showing their apprecia-
tion of the gallant wielders Of the willow.
One of the things talked about lately is
benefit ball at Columbia Gardens. The
players themselves.
Town Appreciates Team.
1t has been said that Butte doesn't ap-
preciate the efforts of the ball team in
winning the pennant two consecutive
years, but this is not true. The town does
appreciate 1t and is willing to show it, by
burning red lights il necessary, or still
better by giving them benefit.
Seattle would have been tickled to death
to win the pennant and Spokane would
have fguratively thrown handspring il
the blue banner could have been taken
home.
The fact that Butte has won the pen
nant twice hasn't made the fans so base
that they take it as a matter Of course. 1t
is just as great an achievement this year
as it was last, and considering many
things, it is just little bit more SO.
Better Ball Played.
Better ball was played this year than
last, the rivalry among the clubs was
keencr and, taken altogether, it was
strenuous, nerve destroying year. Now that
it is all over but the shouting the fans
can look back and see where the team
worked faithfully and hard.
AS an example of the fact that the Pa
cifc National league played better ball
than did the Western league. one has but
to look at the records OF the pitchers taken
from leagues at the close of their season.
.McNeely and Newmeyer, the star twirlers
with which Salt Lake was to have wiped up
the dusty diamond with the Butte aggrega-
ton were batted out OF the box with
sickening regularity.
Recruit WaIloped
On our side, Pitcher Martin who came
from the effete East was wallopcd unmerci-
fully when he went up against the batters
of the Pacific National league. Pitcher
Martin has pitched three times for Butte
and has lost every time.
Yet these men were considered good in
their league. They pitched winning ball
all summer and when they came out this
way and got bumped good and hard. they
began to understand that they were playing
III fast company.

MARY MACLANE TO
REPORT IN DENVER
BUTTE AUTHORIZES Is SAID TO BE
ENGAGED FOR THE STAFF
or THE POST.
SHE Is TO HAVE FULL SWAY
Mary May Say What She Likes About
the Smart Set Of Colorado and
Its Ways and Morals.

Word comes up from Denver that Mary
Maclanc will pause for time in her work
OF writing books and again enter the field
oi Journalism. This time she il reported
TO have joined the staff OF the Denver
Post.
lhc announcement comes as surprise
TO her friends and relatives in this city.
lew days since she wrote 10 Butte from
Boston and her letter said nothing al all
about going TO Denver.
The Post congratulatcs itself on its
latest acquisition TO what it chooses 10
term its 'all star staff"
The unknown little girl of Butte of
few years ago says the Post, "is today
the most widely discussed author OF the
time. She mounted the ladder Of fame
with the rush Of a cyclone and has held
her position. She is still girl in years
ii - is not too old to be classed within
the bonds OF girls"
Mary is supposed TO take divers and
snndry falls out Of Denver society and the
little foiblcs of the people of Colorado.
In poking a little sly fun at Denver So
cicty, Mary will be given full sway. She
may say what she wishes and critcise
whom and what she will.
When Mary MacLane arrived in Denver
she was met by newspaper writer.
rs Denver larger than Butte ?" asked
Mary.
why, Butte is only a struggling town
Of 10000" replied the Denver journalist,
with naive disregard for the facts.
1T is. is III" answered Mary with con-
siderable spirit. "Well, it is 100, 900"
Then the journalist looked up the fig
urcs and found that Mary had placed the
estimate about $4,000 too high.
Mary MacI.ane Of year ago is not the
same Mary MacLanc Of today, according
to the interviewer. The kind devil"
theory has been forgotten and she sees
life through different glasses. She is said
to be better looking, too.
When she arrived in Denver she asked
her travelling companion, Mrs. c. M.
Branson, II she should register from Butte
or Boston.
"Why, Boston, dear" replied the old
lady.
And with a stroke Of the pen the mines
and smelters of Butte were deserted for
cultured Boston.

QUARANTINE RHEUMATICS
Disease Is Pronounced Highly Con-
taeious by German Physician.

ta9ious by herman PHYSICIAN.
This question may appear bizarre, but at
the same time there are cases in which il
may well be asked. A German physician
is convinced to such degree Of the con
manded and has obtained at Lcipsic the
creation of a special isolation for rhcu-
mates, in order to prevent their spreading
the disease. Leaving aside the numerous
cases where two or more persons have been
afflicted with rheumatism at the same time
in the same house, and where we may
clearly be permitted TO believe that the i'll
ness of all of the persons has had a com
mon origin, we find some examples which
may lead us to admit the possibility Of con-
tagion. We see, for example, children at
tackled with articular rheumatism few
days after this disease has attacked the
father. Again, we have case mentioned
by Mr.. Talamon, in which child was at
tackled by articular rheumatism, which
lasted eight days. A few days later the
sister of the child, but younger, who slept
in the same room, was attacked by rheu-
matte affection which killed her. We may
also see conjugal rheumatism, or rheuma-
tism which passes from one to the other
of two married people. For example,
man perfectly healthy is taken with rheu-
matism a few days after his wife suffers
rheumatic attack, the wife being con-
frmed sufferer, and here it seems we have
wcll-de6ned case Of contagion-Pubic
Opinion.

RATIONAL METHODS
OF Fighting tuberculosis Rob the "White
Plague" OF Its TeTors.

There is probably no topic in which the
community in general is more interested
than in the prevention and cure OF pull
monary consumption.
The general fatality of the disease is
greater than any other. inlly 10 per cent Of
all deaths being attributable to it. Its
prevalence is also in due proportion.
When viewed from matter Of fact
standpoint this is bad enough, but still
there is no reason why we should not
look at the actual situation fairly and
squarcly in order to meet more intelli-
gently and practically the issues at stake.
Very encouraging efforts are being made
in such directions, and the common sense
basis of them as given by experts deserves
the widest possible discussion.
The grand principle aimed at is to place
the possible cure within the reach Of all.
In keeping with such intention the public
is being educated in the proper direction
OF purely hygicnic treatment. Fresh air,
sunlight and plain, nutritious food are
easily obtainable even by the compare
lively poor man.
1t is high time that the individual as
such should have a show and the over
dreaded bacillus come in on a second-class
ticket. Since the useless scare concerning
the universal danger of infection by this
ycritably omnipresent microbc too little at.
tenton has been paid to the more funda-
mental doctrines of prevention and cure.
1t is good sign of the times that broad
and rational methods of dealing with the
white plague" are so steadily gaining
ground and mere meteorological theories
are wanting in their more direct applica-
ton. Let us continue, then, to have less
care about the business and more rational
and better directed aims. The main ques-
ton is, which can hold the fort, the mi
crobe or the patient? We confess that our
sympathies are always with the latter.
Fresh air, sunlight good food and plenty
of pluck may yet rob the bacillus of all its
real tcrrors.-New York Herald

The Acme of Brutality.

"Have the accursed Christians gone to

fresh cigarette.
"Yes, mighty Caesar" said the CEN
turion. "and still the populace Graves more

Have the human torches been lit?"
Everyone your majesty, but it is not
enough to silence the rabble.'
"'Sdeath !" Kissed Nero. Il will yet give
them game. Take aa picked gladiators to
the north end of the arena and start a
football game. Then drive a herd of
Christians into the ring in the south end
and turn loose the Red Devil in their

fiddle and began where he had left off on

TO THE ORPHANS HOME

The county commissioners have acted
favorably ON the request of Mrs. Carver,
residing at 100 Missouri avenue, that her
two children, Dixie and Donald Carver,
be sent to the orphans home for one
year.
Little Donald Carver is but II years

possessing rare talent in one so young.
Some years ago Donald took first prize
in a children's drawing contest in one Of

TO REPORT FAvoRABLY.

Committee on Railroads and Bridges Favor Track Loop at the Yale Field. The committee on railroads and
 bridges of the board of aldermen held a
 meeting in city hall last evening to consider the petition of the Fair Haven and Westville Railroad company to
 build a loop of tracks near the Yale
 field. After considering the matter care fully they were unanimously in favor of the granting of the petition and will So
 recommend to the aldermen at their meeting next Monday evening. Engineer Punderford of the railroad stated that if the aldermen granted the petition at that time there was no ques- ton but that the loop would be built in
 time to accommodate the crowds who will attend the Yale Princeton game
 which Is to be held here Saturday, No vember IA.
 The loop will start at the corner of Derby avenue and Allen street. along Maltby avenue to Tryon street, and will
 be of great benefit to anyone who at-
 tends any of the big events at the field
 as 1t will enable the cars to run with. out any tieups.
 MT. Punderford stated to the commit. tee that the cost of building the loor
 would amount to between s3,oOO and
 $4,0OO, and that the loop would only he
 used once or twice a year.
