MILLION-DoLLAR BABY
Its Advent CauSed Great Excitemenf
in the Clark Household in
Butte, Montana.

Great was the stir created by his
advent into the world Of William a.
Clark, third, in the circle that awaited
his coming on December !. The tele-
graph wires from Cutie to New York,
San Francisco and Los Angeles and the
cable to Paris were kept busy convey
ing bulletins of the intense anxiety of
the friends and members of the family
of Senator Clark, of Butte, Mont.
When DR.. Donald Campbell an
nounced that all was well and that q
male heir had been born to.the house
of Clark, the wires again sputtered
with EXPLANATIONS of joy and congrat-
ulation.
The senator's eldest son, Charles W.,
had disappointed him, as no children
have been born to him.
The intense concern and interest of
the senator was shown when, a year
ago, he proposed to give $1,000, 900 to

H YANKEE MAID.
Miss May GOedet, Handsome, Twenty
Five Years of Age and Worth
Twenty Millions.

There is one American heiress for
whom a noble title, coupled to an ig-
noble man, possesses no attractions.
A dozen times Miss May Goelet, of
New York, might have welded, each
time the sutton for her hand being a
prince of royal blood, but she has pre-
ferred to retain her liberty. Miss Goe-
let is a very attractive young woman
personally, besides being the possessor
of millions. Her face is a sweet one,
with sunny eyes, sunny hair, a pretty
feminine mouth and n strong chin.
1t is a face worth putting on canvas.
When she is 25 she will have a for
tune estimated at $4,000, 900. Every
body knew of these two facts several
years ago, when, as a young school
girl, she first appeared as brides
maid at Consuelo Vanderbilt's we'd
ding. In addition, however, she has
character and a chart of happiness
by which she sails serenely past de-
cayed and degenerate princes, fop-
pish young earls, dukes and barons
who offer themselves for sale like
secondhand sofas at the auctioneer's
shop. Everybody gayes with wonder
at each announcement that Miss
Goelet will not marry another titled
sutton. say the Chicago Chronicle.
First, according to report, there
came his grace the duke of Manchester.
Hardly anybody will dispute the as
s~ertion that the young duke was a
bad bargain even on the face OF
things. He had a complexion which,
to speak c~haritably, was an in
sigma of either ill-health or dis
sipation. To lay at the feet of
this pure, white American girl.
his grace brought unhealthy youth
and a title, a soiled reputation, an I'M
attractive personality and a long list
of debts. His escapades were the
talk of two continents. His financial
affairs were in such manifest disorder
that the young duke himself casual
1y remarked that he would either have
to marry an Astor or a Vanderbilt or
"throw up the SPONGE" These by 10
means rare qualities, taken in con-
nection with his violent predictions
for the stage and highly cultivated
tastes in chorus girls, made up the
sun total of his grace's attractions.
The duke announced that he came to
America to dispose of himself at the
highest figure. Although the late Og-
den Goelet gave his daughter her own
will in the matter, he remarked fer
vently: "Iwould rather see my daugh-
ter dead than duchess of Manchester
1t required very little common sense
and certainly no self-denial on the
part of a sensible young woman to
refuse the duke of Manchester.
1t is rumored that Miss Goelet's next
sutton was Prince Francis of Teck.
Prince Francis was not bad-looking,
but he was very much older than Miss
Goelet. He was so poor that his fam
lily had to stoop to selling the ancestral
furniture to keep up appearances. He
was avowedly in search of a helpmeet
who could drag him out of the slough

And all the refuge of His grace,
While here below,
Enough; this covers all my want,

For what cannot, He can see,
And in His care l sure shall be

FOOLED cUBANs.
Tobacco Raised in East Texas Pro-
nounced Cuban Weed.

A tobacco manufacturer and
grower who recently returned here
after trip into Cuba brought back
a story that will be gratifying to
the Texans in this part of the state
who are experimenting with the
plant to ascertain its value as IL
crop to the grower on Texas soil,
says the Galveston News.
His main object in going to Cuba
was to see the plant, the soil, the
crop and the treatment process.
With this plan before him in con-
nection with pleasure, he took with
him, upon leaving Texas, a half
dozen samples of leaves from as
many parts of Eastern Texas, along
the line of the Texas and New Or
leans branch of the Southern
Pacific. He procured it to make
comparisons in every way that
might be serviceable. After using
these leaves to the extent of their
usefulness, his brain fell upon a
test that he wanted to apply. which
would be proof positive for or
against Texas. 1t required consider
able nerve, as he did it anyway. In
Havana he called upon one of the
old manufacturers at his establish !
ment and handed him these Texas 7
leaves, asking him at the same
lime where they were grown. The
Cuban expert looked them over
and answered:
"This tobacco was grown in San
Juan in the Vuelta Abajo district"
This was so highly gratifying to
he American that he could not
'efrain from telling the Cuban that
he tobacco, as matter of fact,
vas grown in Eastern Texas in the
United States. This completely con-
ounded the Cuban, but he asked
o keep the samples. They had been
AIKEN from different points in eastern
counties of the state now engaged ,
n raising sample crops. 1t is per-
inent to mention here that the
'uelta Aoajo district in Cuba grows
he best smoking tobacco brought
rom that country.

A Tip For Railway Men.

Doubtless some of the increases in
pay lately obtained were due to
natural causes-the working of the
law of supply and demand. The
demand for labor has been unprece
dented. Any man of intelligence
aud experience in railway work has
been able to get employment. Com
petition among employers for the
services of wage earners mas peeu vcrJ
active. Under such conditions in
creased wages are inevitable. But
there is no doubt that some of the
increases within the last year have
been obtained practically under duress,
for the reason that financial interests
have been timid. dreading the conse-
quenoes OF strike. Managers have
yielded many points not on their
merits, but purely through considera-
tions of expediency. But advances
on such a basis are not likely to be
permanent. and there is surely limit
beyond which they cannot go. The
labor leaders are doubtless claiming
credit for the entire adsvnce. For so
much as they have been able to pro-
cure over and above that which
would arise from natural causes they
are entitled to certain kind Of credit
but if they push the limit too far
they will merely create conditions the
reaction from which will be harmful
to their own interests. Up to the
present time the railroads nave yield
ed on. the score of expediency. Rail
