One Prayer.

Let me work and be glad,
o Lord. ask more;
With will to turn where the sunbeam
burn
At the sill of my workshop door.
Aforetime I prayed my prayer
For the glory and gain of earth,
But now grown wise and with opened
eyes
I have seen what the prayer was worth
Give me my work to do,
And peace of the TASK well done;
Youth of the spring and its poisoning
And the light of the moon and sun.
Pleasure of little things
That never may pail or end
And fast in my hold no lesser gold
Than the honest hand of a friend.
Let me forget in time
Folly of dreams that / had;
Give me my share of a world most fair
Let me work and be glad

eupernuousness Of Men.

That women cannot be gay and
agreeable in the society of their own
sex alone is q superstition that has
been very largely dissipated by the un-
qualified success of ladies' clubs 1t
is quite possible for women to con-
tinue to meet each other day after day
apart from men without scratching out
each others eyes. to dine harmonious
ly and gaily together without male
guests, and, in short to get along quite
pleasantly by themselves.

NEWSPAPERS SUE
MINING COMPANY
MONTANA = VERDE CONCERN is
ASKED TO PAY ITS BILLS
FOR ADVERTISING.

The Montana-Verdc Mining company
was made the defendant in two civil suits
filed in the district court today by two
publishing companies.
The Press Publishing company, which
publishes the New York World, sued the
mining company for $I,a5o, and the
Judge company sued il for 5000.
Both suits were brought to collect un-
paid advertising bills, according to the
complaints filed.
The Press company alleges that it pub
lshed an advertisement for the defendant
in 1909, and that an accounting had been
reached between them by which it was
shown that the $I,25o is due.
1t wants the money and 8 per cent inter-
est per annum from November I, 1909, till
paid.
The Judge company alleges that it pub
lished an advertisement in 1909 for the de-
fendant, and that an accounting reached
between them showed 5000 due. 1t wants

the woman who has figured so largely in
the case the woman the United Copper
and lIcnze interests caused to be arrested
last winter in Helena when her testimony
promised to cut a figure in the Harney
impeachment proceedings, whose arrest
was accomplished by five bold and brave
attaches of the United Copper forces.
Mrs. Wallace is one Of the Ihiel de-

August, 1901, TO investigate the relations
existing between Judge ilarney, before

As an Invalid.
Barlow appeared as John W. Waters and
assumed the character Of an invalid here
for his health. The two became close
friends and intimate associates OF Judge
Harncy and Mrs. Brackett.
Mrs. Wallace, together with Barlow,
made alidaYits in the Minnie lloaly case
in July, 1901, in support Of the motion for
a new trial in that cause.
These aiidayits were the ones that FIRST
made public the alleged influence Mrs.

filing was the sensation OF 1901 in Butte,
Subsequently the information gathered
by these two detectives played large

FIND DOUBLE-HEADED SNAKE
California Museum Secures Rare Speci-

By ASSOCIATED PRESS.


San Francisco Cal, July 2o.-A double
headed snake that can back up as rapidly
as it can move forward has been added
to the natural history exhibit Of the Mem
oral institution.
1t is about 81 inches long. about as
broad as the handle Of tablc-knife, with
the tail blunt at the end as the index
finger.
1t belongs TO a wholly tropical species
called amphisbanna, defined as "a species
of tropical lizard distinguished by the OBJ
tuseness of the head and tail
The reptile has hitherto only been found
in South America and the West Indies.
1t is sluggish and mostly nocturnal.
The specimen just presented to the
museum was found at Half Moon bay, in
this state, and how it came to be living
in the temperate zone 1000 miles from
its only known habtation is what is now
puzzling local scientists.
