and place them equal to any of the
best importations in this gathering
of beauty.
Hats OF velvet, beaver and felt are
greatly in evidence. However, some
OF the very latest conceits are of tim
sci, lace and like thin materials.
Many of the heavier-weight hats
have the brims lined with maline,
which always lends softening eff
feet that is becoming to any one.
Ostrich feathers were never more
popular Or more beautiful, in tips
and magnificent plumes. Wings and
breasts and other feathers are ex-
tensively used.
These days there are no seasons
for flowers. They are with us the
year round, and they bloom abund-
antly on the fall and winter hats, but
they are in new tints.
Ribbons of silk and velvet are
conspicuous. Indeed, they are nee
essary on the new hats, as the high
turns require graceful filling. The
perfection of this is particularly
noticeable in our own hats.
Several new shades are shown
this season. Those most used are
becoming to nearly every one, and
lend distinguished effect.
Mourning millinery is especially
elegant this season. Here are SUI
perb models from the celebrated
French. designer, Mangin Maurice.
Dress Hats and School Hats for
young girls and children are in pro-
fusion.
An attractive feature of the pres
ent display is the varied and beauti-
full collection of Neck Pieces, includ-
ing many novelties in this line.

IN SANDERS COUNTY.
Thompson Falls, the Capital, is Forg
ina Ahead.

Thompson Falls, Aug. 31.-The en-
bryonic capital of the new county of
Sanders is quietly forging ahead,
with prospects of very f1attering
nature. The promising mines in the
vicinity of gold, silver and galena
are being actively developed and no
where can there be found those OF a
more encouraging nature. The Mon
tana Standard Mining company on
Prospect creek presents a busy as
pect and the old Shamrock mine has
driven a 150-foot tunnel and will soon
employ three shifts of workers. The
Shamrock group comprises hall
dozen claims and was but recently
bought by the Shamrock Mining com
pany from Mark Cooney, of Burke.
These inviting fields of minera,
properties are some nine miles from
Thompson Falls on the old Murray
stage road, and an electric line, con
Meeting Murray with the falls, is but
question of time, as ample power
lies at our very door in the exceptional
water fall of the Columbia.
The second kiln of brick of Henri!
Florin is almost ready for firing. The
superior quality of the manufacture
insures ready sale, a number O.
car loads having been shipped to Mis-
soula. The potter, operated by j. D
Roberts, is also in active development
and is an enterprise which bids fai
to monopolize the earthenware traf
fic of the northwest.
Our principal of schools has arrived
and preparations are going FORWARD
for an active and profitable educa
tional campaign. Thompson Falls
has one of the neatest and best az
ranged little school houses in thu

riferous rocks produces floating gold
which in the course of centuries has
accumulated in the ocean in immense
quantities. Nj riverside estimates
that a cubic mile of water contains
100 to 26O tons of gold, or 81 MILL
grams to the ton of water. And If
this be true the total amount of gold
in the sea would be 100,0O0,000,00
tons. If, however, we merely take
HOO of this sum we shall get 1,O00,-
100000 tons, valued at $697,711, 000,-
100000. In reference to this point
NJ de Wilde, of Brussels, says that
all of the gold which has been mined
from the earliest times up to the
present would not form cube more
than 80 feet square. This would
weigh 38,58O,OOO pounds. and would
be valued at $13,559,9 46,OOO. This Is
only 1-26th of the total amount stored
up in the ocean.
The problem, however, is to find
some economical method for extract
ing this gold. The latest suggestions
along this line have come from NJ.
de Wilde, who found that in treating
ocean water with four or five cent?.

ed in the water is transformed into
purple of Cassius, which includes
gold, tin and oxygen. This composite
possesses high power of attraction
for large number of porus and gel
atinous bodies, and particularly for
magnesia, which is developed quick
ly in sea water by adding lime wa
ter. The hydrate of magnesia thus lib.
Grated instantly fixes the purple OF
Cassius The hydrate is also able
to fix new quantities of purple OF
Cassius developed in fresh quantities
of sea water, and as the hydrate be
comes saturated with the purple II
becomes brown. M. de Wilde has
succeeded in charging the hydrate OF
magnesia with as much as fifteen
per cent of gold, and the hydrate may
be cleansed of it's gold with diluted
solution of cyanide of potassium. As
the hydrate is cleansed it becomes
white again. M. de Parville says thai
M. de Wilde is very optimistic as tc
the future of his discovery, but the
results must be carefully watched be
fore an opinion can be formed.

Mr.. Bryan's Commoner says the
fear of some Democrats that Presi-
dent Roosevelt may be nominated for
a third term is groundless. Why this
"fear" on the part of "some Demo-
Gratis" Bryan must share in it and
is simply whistling to keep his cour-
age up. If Mr.. Bryan has ambition
to be his party's candidate he does
not want Mr.. Roosevelt as an oppo-
nent. It is not likely that Theodore
Roosevelt will again be a candidate
for the presidency, but it is not impos-
sible to conceive of a situation that
would stay all protestation on his own
part and overthrow all opposition
from other sources. If the people
should demand four more years OF
Roosevelt and make it so strong that
there could be no mistake about 1t,
what power could stand in the way
of his nomination and election. 1t
doesn't exist.

to be a legal holiday in this state.
It is a wise provision and one that

has been taking strides in the indus

number of men employed in various
callings.
1t is ost gratifying to know too, that
they are proftably employed, that
the wage scale is good and that con

LEWISTOWN, MONT, Aug. 90, 1870;
PEACE is DECLARED.

The white dove of peace hovers
over Portsmouth. BY the Japanese
waving indemnity and giving up half
of Sakhalin island the ENJOYS were
enabled to get together.
While Russia wins in the diplomat
ic battle Japan achieves a moral vic
tory that will gain for her the praise
and admiration of the civilized world,
a victory through the mere force of
the magnamity displayed that will
mean her future security as nation.
Considering the successes Japan has
met with on land and sea and the ad-
vantage she now holds, her demands
OF Russia were not unreasonable.
She was ready to strike another blow
in Manchuria and there could hardly
be any doubt as to the outcome. But
Russia is the bull dog among nations,
she does not know when she is whip
ped Lacerating and bleeding she
would fight on as long as she had
human victims to feed into the jaws
of DEATH
No doubt success would have at
tended Japanese arms for some time
to come. She could have driven the
Russian army into Siberia and gain
ed possession of new territory, and
she might have forced Russia finally
to her own terms, but it would have
been done at frightful loss Of lives
and the expenditure of millions of dol
lars.
No doubt Japan has accomplished
more than she expected to when war
was declared. She has won such
prestige in war that it will be a long
time before Russia provokes her to
another.
While Russia may have been bluff
ing to some extent, one cannot help
but admire the apparent firmness of
her ENJOYS. NJ Witte had attained
high rank as financer and now he
has added new laurels by his con-
summate skill as a diplomat.
But the man that looms up large
in the final proceedings of the peace
commission is Theodore Roosevelt
More and more, this nation and the
world at large realizes the greatness
of his character and his power fol
good. Throwing aside conventional
ism and ignoring red tape, he has
exerted all of his energy and influence
in behalf of peace, and it is safe tC
say that but for him the word to the
Japanese army in Manchuria to attack
the enemy would have been given ere
now. And it was all through his love
for humanity and his desire to stol
cruel and bloody war that he threv
his great personality into the breacl
when the hope for peace had wei
nigh vanished.

SEARCH FOR GOLD AND OIL.

Few thought, twenty years ago,
that the North Moccasin range of
mountains were destined to become
the leading gold producing region in
the county. Although placer ground
was being worked in this range at
that time and some quartz had been
discovered, the greatest mining activ
ity was centered in the Judith range,
which has been a producer to more
or less extent ever since.
While the North Moccasin is now in
the lead as producer there are many
WHO still have faith in the ore depos-
its of the Judith range, and who be-
leve that it will again take the lead
in the output of the yellow metal.
The range is considerably larger than
the North Moccasin and in every part
are to be found groupings Of gold and
silver ores, with some iron, showing
the district to be highly mineralized.
Nevertheless, the little mountain
spur to the north is attracting the
attention of capitalists by the unfail.
ing output Of the properties that have
been developed.
The recent formation of company
with ample capital to test a large
area of ground extending away from
the mountain range, is an undertaking
of more than usual interest in mining
circles. If it is demonstrated that the
ore bodies extend down the gulch and
well out into the foothills, it will un
doubtedly mean great wealth to those
directly interested, say nothing of the
added importance it will give Fergus
county as a gold producer.
The discovery of oil is also within
the range of possibility. Taken to
gether there is much to hope ant
expect for and the progress of the
work will be watched with eager in
terest by all concerned.

CAN SHE HAVE A BEAUx?

School boards down in Wisconsin
are discussing the question: Should
a public school teacher have beaux?"
An exchange, commenting on the
seemingly perpleXing problem, takes
the view that will meet the approval
of most patrons of the schools. 1t
says:
This is not only an idle waste of
time, but to take the question up SER
iously would be to tempt fate. A
school board is chosen to look after
the affairs of the school and to pro-
vide the rising generation with a
teacher. To enforce the regulation,
that a teacher would not be permit
ted to have beauX, would mean that
To have a beauX is an inalienabie
right. Are we to understand that
just because she gives herself to the
thankless, underpaid work of teach
ing the young. she is to contract
away her right to liberty and the pur.
suit of happiness? If there is any
class of people in America who have
big kick coming. it is the school
teachers. The man who cares for cat

paid than the woman who presides

BOW BELLS TO RING.
Famous Chimes to be Heard Agai
in Busy London.

Famous Chimes to be Heard Again
in Busy London.
London, Aug. Blow Bells are
once more to ring out in chimes
above the noise Of Londons traffic.
This is chiefly due to the keen in
terest taken in the historic church
by the rector, Rev. A. W.Hutton, who
holds a curious record. He was ear
ly in life ordained an English clergy
man, but then became Roman Cath
olic, leaving that church after seven
years. He was at one time familiar
as the keeper of the Gladstone lib
rary at the National Liberal club,
and has recently succeeded the in
cumbent at the city church in Cheap
side.
Their Fame in England.
No peal of bells in England is more
familiar than that Of Bow church
The famous story of Dick Wilmington
centers around them. and 1t is the
old chime of "Turn again Whiting
ton, Lord Mayor Of London" which
is to ring out from the tower. Sill
Charles Villiers Stanford has har
monized the setting for the new
chime which will be played on the
full set of IL bells. These were re
hung two years ago. They have now
been seen to once more by the very
| firm who cast the first of them az
far back as 1869.
Metal Of Old Bells.
That was after the great fire, wher
Wrenn had rebuilt the church as Il
is now known, and there is not {
doubt in the minds of antiquarian:
that the metal was used from the OLE
bells which had melted in that out
break. The firm was then Lester
Pack and their records thOw that the
tenor bell was cast in 1869. 1t wa'
recast by them in 1888 and in 176.
nine more were added. Two more
making a dozen, we're hung in 1881
The tenor weighs So cwt.
For the purposes of the new chime
an automatic apparatus is being fiji
ted to the clock by Clerkenwel
firm, and the bells will ring at tn
quarters. Mr.. Hughes, who is al
expert in these matters, and himsei
not only bell founder, but an exper
bell ringer has the work in hand o
rehanging the peal. Thy were run
for the first time this week. MI
