fact that much of it might be prevent

wife. The ceremony occurred in Mar
settles. France. May ~. 1901. but it
was only few days ago that the
senator's grownup SONS and daughters
learned that their father. now sixty
five. was no longer Il widower but had
a charming wife. twenty -four years of
age. and Il baby daughter, now two
years of age. Senator Clark gives as
the reason for the secret marriage the
fact that Mrs. Clark desired TO remain
abroad and finish her education.
Miss Ia Chapelle was the ward of
Senator Clark 1t is related that one
day when she was 4 girl of fourteen
or fifteen she came into the senator's
Office in Butte to plead the cause of
her father. a French Canadian phySi-
clan who had no license to practice in
Montana and hence was having trou-
BILE with the local medical society. The
senator was induced TO aid the I'M
fortunate doctor and gave him money
TO obtain q course OF study at an
American medical college Not long
afterward the father died, and the
family being left in financial straits
he gave them further aid, sending both
Anna and her sister Amelia to school.
In Anna he took especial interest, and
as she proved TO have unusual talents
he determined that she should have
every opportunity for their develop
mCnt. She was sent abroad to study
music and the languages. and as her
accomplishments grew the senator's
admiration for her increased. and this
led TO their marriage three years ago.
Mrs. Clark is now in Europe. Her
husband has several costly homes, that
on Fifth avenue, New York, being most
palatial.

The Japs.

The Russians are evidently whistling
to keep their courage up. All the story
about their killing 10000 Japs by
means of mines was a canard. They
did nothing of the sort. In fact. the
story was coined out of whole cloth,
evidently with the purpose of impress
ing the Russian people that something
is being done. The fact of the case
seems TO be that the Russians are sit
ting around waiting for the Japs TO
move. and when the latter take a po-
sition. the Russians straightway re-
treat to better place. All of the stor-
les of Russian successes turn out 10
be little skrmishes, Outposts attacked
here and there. a body of scouts driven
back. or something of that sort.
Thus far, in every encounter the
Russians have gotten the worst of it.
and all accounts of success on their
part can be taken with many mis-
Eivings.

Big Railway Figures.

The figures of the annual report of
the interstate commerce commission
on the operations of railways present
impressive totals of national prospect
~. For the year ending june so. 1903,
there was an increase of 9,G23 in track
mileage. the greatest construction
since 1890. The capitalization of the
railways made a total of more than
$12 .5O0. 100000. Footings which thus
run into the billions become difficult of
comprehension even by minds famil-
iarized with the gigantic operations of
modern commerce. In the number of
passengers carried for the year the
roads moved more than eight times
the population of the country.
But the more striking figures pre-
scented are OF a different sort. While
swelling with pride over the magnifi-
cent growth of the railways. we can
not overlook the awful record of the
manned and mangled and dead-a to
tai of $685. injuries inflicted. of which
$50 were fatal.

BY no manipulation of the figures
can this record be made To- appear en-.

by the railroads in material develop.

question. But the price paid in human
lives is stupendous. Such a record as
this furnishes a grave indictment
against American methods OF haste
and Carnlessness. of incompetencies
higher up. Of criminal economies OF

safety. Beside this record of killed
and manned the billion tons of freight
carried and the 10 billion of dollars OF
capital invested shrink into lttleness.
