 Tae average income of the journalist is dlficult to determine. since the salaa ries paid vary widely, according to the size of the city and the section of the country. The general average, 1t is safe to say. however. in comparison with oth- CT professions, is rather high. Tn New York the maximum salary paid for ed- itors is perhaps S2s,OO0 a ycar This is probably tho largest salary paid to any managing editor in America. The aver age for the entire country Is, of course. very much less end may hasS plnce6 Ut about 5000 year.
 Good Reporters Well Paid.
 The best reporters receive $500 a year, while the minimum Is sl5 Q week, or siJO h year. The average Is about SLIGO a year. In othe- cities uf" the United statos the average is less, probably about s1.0o0 a year. The average newspaper artist receives so to $e0 a week. with a tow even at higher figures. The ay. eragc may be placed at $40 week. S20OO year The average in smaller cities is probobly about $30 a week.

There are in New York today several physicians who earn annually rather more than $1O0.OoO. These incomes are doubtless the highest received by any physicians in the United States. But the Dhysicians whose practices are worth so much are very few. They could doubt less be counted on tho fingers of one hand. Stories of enormous fees paid by wealthy patients gre, of course. familiar. The largest fee is believed to have bscn paid some years ago by the Czar of Ras- sia, Snd it is said to have been s25Oen0 for a single operation. Taken as class, the American millionaires are said to be the most liberal ratiehts in the world with their physicians '

Tn the course of Fer wandering she fol- lowed the Gulf Stream over to England. then took jaunt down the European coast and finally. true to her country, Nb. turned by devious. ways over the eqtia- tor back to America, where she was wrecked three degrees north of the spot where she started adrift.
 "The schooner B. R. Woodside, another famous derelict, began her career several hundred miles east of Savannah. She started off toward Europe by way of the Gulf Stream. changed her mind when near the Canary Islands. and turned pack to within twenty miles of her starting point. Then she drifted south to the ist- ands of Floridns became mixed up in d storm, and went &iszaggfng across the ocean. She crossed her own path a number of times, and was sighted by for- ty different shipmAstars. who made haste to report her maneuvers to the hydro graphic btireAu. She was a particularly dangerous specimen of the genus derelicl. and there was great relief ih marine cir cies when tk was reported that some efs- teTpfising craft had picked her up and towed her to AbAco. New Providence.
 The honor of being the most remark able derellct probably belongs to the Fred B. Taylor, the craft that was run into by the Trave in 1889. The sharp bow of the transatlantic liner out the sailing yes. sel squarely in half. and by all rules of marine procedure shoula have sent her to the bottom.

 As q result the general average of ih- comes Is actually higher in shs trades than in the proressions. A few stAsls- tics will readily prove that this is the case. The, best minimum rate paid to regular mechanics is $6.zO day, which Ia paid to brickiayers. 1t must be te- hnembered, of course. that this is the lowest rate. There are many bficklayerS who receive as high as S and % q day.
 The average income of bficklayers. therefore, is something more than se q day, Of at the rate of about st0 q week. S2,0Oo a year. It is but fair to state that this ss not a yearly income. and ts itts terrupted at times by bad weather, or the state of the building market. On the other hand the lowest wages paid to mechanics is more than g . day.

MAVERICKS ARE HERE.
Series Of Five Games Between Lewis.
town anc Great Falls Team.

After much work and worry on the
part of Manager Hugh Wagner and
Captain VIII Debb the series of base
ball games lur this week was finally
arranged, ana Saturday word was sent
10 the Great Falls Mavericks TO come
down. the yarTiying this morning on
the coach. The expense involved in
getting this team here was no small
item and it will take all of $500 10
pay for the series of five games. It
devolves on the citizens If Iewistown
and the visitors from the surround
ing country to say whether or not the
base ball boys shall go in the hole"
in order to provide games for the
people of the city fair week. A paper
was circulated among the business
houses and money was subscribed by
everyone who was approached by the
committee for the purpose of getting
q guarantee in case the receipts at
the games left a deficit. The Fergus
County Fair association has given $5U
toward the expense OF the series and
it Is hoped that enough may be re-
allied at the grounds 10 more than
everything. This cannot be
done, however, without the co-opera.
ton of all in the city who are inter.
ested in athletics.
The boys who play on the home
team feel that they are entitled TO the
support of the Lewislown people as
they have never asked for any thing
from the people except that they con
tribute a small amount to see a game
The playing they do might be better
at some times but they do the best
they can ami no n feels more sorry
for misplays than do the boys them
selves. This time, however. the Lew.
istOwn team has drawn on Kendall
and Gilt Edge for the pick of that
team and will do theiI oest To make
a winning in the series. The Nav.
ericks are acknowledged TO be the
best amateur team in the state. They
have beaten Helena, Butte and BO2c-
man and Will cnG"dvor To win IN"

they have a numbOr of men on their
team who formerly played on the
Butte team and the base ball lovers
of this city will be- shown good base
ball in any event. The grounds are
in the best OF shape and fast games
may be expected. The admission fee
is small aud large crowds should be
present at all games. On "Wednesday.
Thursday and Friday the games will
be played at 1889 in the morning

SUES TO RECOVER FIVE
FROM A FORTUNE TELLER

William Mills, of Davenport, is not
SO unsophisticated as he was. He has
lost confidence in the fortune tellin' -
man.
This morning he had Prof J. Shan.
non. of 1906 Fourth avenue. this city
brought before Justice J. H Cleland
on a charge of obtaining money un-
der false pretenseS. The case ended
in Mills having to pay the costs and
the professor having to return the
money he obtained from Mills.
1t was yesterday evening that Mills
blew into Rock Island from across
the stream to have Shannon tell him
of his future destiny. The first thing
that the professor wanted TO know.
Mills says. was if he had money, to
which Mills replied in the affirmative,
and put s. in his hand.
Mills says the professor told him
that he needed a course of electric
treatments, which would cost S2f
with the understanding that the V
was to be the first installment But
Mills did not like the idea and he
claims that he was compelled to take
recourse to law to secure his money
back
