States found Judge Parker swimming
IN the Hudson river. The Judge
is one of the most methudical of men.
The reporters who camped on his
trail at Esopus last week, to watch
how he took things, found him pur-
suing the even tenor Of his way as if
his country seat we're all in all to
him. The fact that delegations were
battling for or against him, and that
the entire country was absorbed in
curiosity as to the result, did not inter-
fere with the regularity of his home
life.
They say the Judge arises every
morning at 6 o'clock in summer and
spends an hour swimming in the
waters of the Hudson. "Over a.
bathing suit says a correspondent
of the New York Herald, "the Judge
throws hathrobe, and ia this loose
garb he hurries down the hill from
his house, walks out to the end of the
steamboat dock. throws off his robe,
kicks off MS shoes. points his arms
upward, poises for a moment and
then plunges overheard. The Judge
is powerful swimmer, and when he
appears on the surface after his
initial dive he starts with a strong
stroke for midstream. This exer-
clse for an honr, and then he hurries
to the house for cleansing bath and
his breakfast.
From this it appears that Judge
Parker, like Colonel Roosevelt, is
consistent advocate of physical cul-
ture. The Judge has never figured
as dashing rough rider, but man
who can swim an hour before break
fast must of necessity possess fine
physique and abounding health. A
prodigious worker, first at the bar
and later on the bench, the Judge is \
full-chested man, one who has been as
sedulous to train his body as TO train
his intellect. Swimming ia noble
exercise. The thorough aeration of
the blood by deep inhalations of air,
SO as to bring it in contact with the
whole breathing surface of the lungs,
Is Indispensable to him who would
MAINTAIN that full vital power on
which the vigor of the brain so large
ly depends.--Anaconda Standard.

MON rANA'S PART AT ST. LOUIS.

MONTANA'S PART AT ST. LOUIS.
The wisdom of the democrats of
this state in not instructlng their
delegates to support any particular
candidate at St. Louis has been
fully proved by the events of the last
week.
The delegation from this state was
IN a position to canvass the situation
as it found it in the Missouri city,
and to appropriate for the democracy
of this commonwealth front seat in
the bandwagon.
If the representatives from Mon
tana had been tied up to any one man,
they would not have been in a posi-
ton to use any discretion. but would
have been compelled to have sup
ported the candidate selected by the
Great Falls convention, and the
chances are that the choice of that
meeting would not have been Judge
Parker.
AS matters stand the delegates
sized up the situation correctly and
when the roll of states was called,
Montana went on record for Judge
Parker.
There is no doubt in the mind of
any democrat, aud very little in the
minds of any republicans, that the
judge will be elected, and consequent
ly when democrats from this state
have occasion to call at the White
house after March 4th next, they will
be doubly welcome.
The representatives from Montana
put the state in line for the winner,
and they appear to have exercised
most excellent Judgment IN every
matter that came up.
They voted against the convention
sending a telegram to Judge Parker
in reply to the message which he sent,
because they could not see any neces-
sity for assuring the judge that he
had right to hold any particular
opinions he wanted to on the cur
rency question because the conven-
tion had given every democrat IN the
nation that privilege when they de.
clined to make the matter of gold or
silver standards an issue.
From start to finish the Montana
delegation exercised excellent judg-
ment, and in no vote did they take
action that was not in line with the
views of the democracy of the state.
They placed Montana in the party
wagon, and that is something that
will count after Judge Parker takes
the executive chair.
Montana most assurdly will give
the judge the electoral vote of
this state, and that will make the
commonwealth's influence at the
capital of the nation more felt than it
has ever been in the past,
Unquestionably the delegates
named at Great Falls have acquitted
themselves splendidly at st. Louis

BIG STRIKE AT
MARSHALL LAKE
EIGHT FEET OF HIGH GRADE ORE EN-
COUNTERED IN ERWIN PROPERTY.

H. NJ. Sturtevant, R.H. Hendricks
and Fred Hammersly arrived in the
city Monday afternoon from the
Marshall Lake district, where they
have been for several months past
engaged in developing their mining
properties in that promising sectlon.
The gentlemen are enthusiastic
over the showing that has been made
in the camp lately. They say that
the impression that has gained
credence that Marshall Lake is a dis
trict of small veins is erroneous, as
recent events have shown.
On one of the claims of the Erwin
group recently purchased by Mr..
Strong, of Denver, for an eastern
syndicate, eight feet of solid ore,
high grade, has been encountered.
The vein is true fissure and con-
tinues to widen as depth is attained.
The strike was made in the face of s
160-foot tunnel.
