CHARGED WITH ROBBERY.
Two Men at Helena Alleged to Have Looted a Postofice In Missouri Had Stamps
 On Their Person.

Helena, January 4. Deputy United States Marshal Copeland arrested two alleged postoffice robbers at Jonesboro Friday and brought them to Helena for trial. The offense with which the men are charged is robbery of the postoffice at Gayoso, Mo-, a week ago, when large amount of money and stamps was stolen. The men were given a hearing before Commissioner Crun, Post office Inspector Glenn of Little Rock and Stagner of St. Paul, Minn., being presen+.
 When arrested the men, who bear the names of Frank Montio and Jim Ryan, had $75 worth of stamps hidden between under shirts worn by them. Commis- sioner Crum held both men for trial, and as neither could give bond they are in jail awaiting an order of removal to St. Louis, in which city the court for the dis trict containing Gayoso is located.
 Neither man would make a statement as to his guilt or inno- cence.

A number of hold-ups are re- ported in the vicinity of the rail- road camp along the White River line since pay day. It seems that, in addition to the toughs who are engaged in the work, there is a contingent of gamblers and thugs who make their money in this manner, and their acts are in no way chargeable to the country for the time being invaded by them.

Proposes to Keep Cool.

Richard Wesley, formerly wine
clerk at kinch's dispensary in this
city but now engaged in attending
to the all-consuming thirst of
Evelethitites, likes a cool bedroom
and in order to properly adjust the
circulation of his sleeping apart
ments ordered an electric fan from
Electrician Freely some time ago.
The fan arrived on Monday and was
forwarded to Eveleth, where Mr..
Wesley spent the afternoon in look
ing through the bundle of packing
straw to discover the instrument of
comfort, which was about one and
one-fourth inches in diameter, and
it is reported that he was so warm
at the time of placing his fingers
on the elusive mite that he forth
with pressed the button and let the
machine get in its work, without
awaiting the time for retiring.

Has Option on the Arcturus.

-: The steel corporation has OBJ
tanned an option on the Arcturus
mine, running until December 1st,
and have drills employed at the
present time in testing and proving
the extent of the ore body on the
property.
The Arcturus mine has had a
nota bic career, and it will be inter
esting if it is, at last, included in
the holdings of the steel corpora
ton, for one of the present subsidi-
airy mining: companies once held
IAN option on it, before the siee1 cor.
poration was formed, but did not
exercise it.
The property has been explored
a number of times by different com.
panies. 1t has been evident for a
long time, however, that the Arc.
turus would eventually fall into
strong hands. There is large
amount of ore in the property, and
it is said that some of it is mer.
charitable without concentration.

Will Issue Leases.

In view of the refusal of the su-
prene court to review the minister
ial acts of the state auditor in re-
fusing to grant mineral leases on
lands lying under lake beds, State
Auditor S. 6. Iverson has concluded
to issue mineral leases to full 100
applicants who have had applica-
'tions on file in his office for some
months. The auditor believes that
this action will precipitate -:litiga-
ton which will definitely establish
the rights of the state and the ripar-
ian owners to beds of meandered
lakes in Minnesota. Accordingly
the state auditor has had his clerks
remove 100 or more applications for
mineral leases from the pigeon
holes that had sheltered them for
months and separate those which
did not conflict with each other.
Where there is no conflict he will
issue the leases on payment, and the
land being contiguous tracts. The
applicants ask to file leases on beds
of meandered lakes dotting both
the Vermilion and Mesaba ranges
in Northern Minnesota, from Ely
on the east to Grand Rapids on the
west and cover nearly every por-
ton of the iron belt of Northern
Minnesota Should the state au.
EDITOR be&upheld by the, courts: ia
granting leases to land of this char
acter it is probable that a large
amount will inure to the state
revenue fund. Auditor Iverson
said that he was in something of a
quandary, but he had determined to
issue the leases and let interested
property owners fight it out be-
tween themselves.

about sixty cords of stumps per
month, paying $500 per cord for
same, from which is secured 600
gallons of oil; 1900 gallons of pine
tar and 500 gallons of turpentine,
worth altogether between $500 and
$500. The expenses are such as to
leave a net profit of from $500 to
$500.

Rather Clever Birds.

An agrlculturists' paper tells this
yarn: \ poultry fancier who kept
some fowls in a field beside railway
line fed the fowls on wheat, but the
sparroTs would come by the score and
steal it from them. The fancier did
not know what to do to stop them. At
last he decided to feed the fowls on
Indian maize, thinking that it would
be too large for the sparrows to sWal-
low. He went again next day, and to
his surprise there were just as many
sparroHs as before They were taking
their corn in their beaks and laying 1t
on the rails, waiting for train TO go
over it and crush it so that they couio
eat it.

Alcohol and the Human Body.

About seven years ago Bennie
Nichols, a fourteen year old
schoolboy, was carelessly hand
ling a gun. It was accidentally
discharged anda heavy charge
passed through his arm, almost
tearing it from the body, shat
tering the bone in several places
and lacerating the flesh until it
hung in strips from the bone.
An old soldier who happened to
care for the boy until the doctor
could get there, said he never
saw as sickening a sight upon
a battlefield, or saw as fearfully
a lacerated wound.
When the doctor came he made
immediate preparations to In
putate the arm. The boy beg
ged piteously that it might not
be cut off. Moved by his plead
ing, the physician took the faith
er to one side and said this to
him:
:Mr. Nichols, if that We're
any other mans boy in this
whole in township, I would am
putate that arm at once, as the
only chance to escape blood pois
oning. But I know you never
touched beer, whiskey or tobac-
co in your life You gave your
boy pure blood. and you have
brought him up in the same way.
I take the chance. Watch him
closely, and, if blood poisoning
appears, we'll remove the arm
at once.''
The boys arm healed perfect
ly, though frightful scars will
always mark it. Repeatedly the
doctor has told him: Young
man, you can thank your father
for your good fortune. If there
had been any alcoholic taint
there, you'd have but one arm
now" This boy is our nephew,
and we know these facts to be
exactly as stated.

times whether his success was

his denomination, and to Chris

The denunciation Of fanatical

Bishop Potter can we'll afford to
disregard. But the sorrow, the
scandal, which his act has
brought to millions Of Christian
believers-the injury that his
conduct has done to the Chris
tian church everywhere, and to
his own branch of it especially.
Bishop Potter cannot lightly put
aside or treat as Of no moment,
unless he be utterly insensible
to the feelings of the Christian
world.
For in discriminating between

making a choice Of evils by ap-
proving drinking in a particular
saloon as less evil than drinking
in the average saloon-in form
ally sanctioning drinking in this
saloon while confessing that
drinking in any saloon is evil
what has Bishop Potter really
done:
He has done what the Chris
tian church can never Justify in
any of its ministers. He has done
evil in the hope that good may
come. He has put into public
practice a doctrine which in any
professed follower of Jesus of
Nazareth is the abyss of heresy-
the doctrine that the end justl.
fes the means.
By the instructive Judgment
of the Christian world the Right
Rev. Henry Goldman Potter is
called to a repentance as public
as was his offense. And unless
he speedily show such repent
ance and bring forth fruits meet
for repentance, there should be
some power in the Protestant
Episcopal church to purge it and
the Christian ministry Of this
present scandal.
