new HAYRE
TO CELEBRATE
Chief West Of Fire Department
Plans for First Annual Ball in
COmmemOratiOn of Fire.

The surprising development Of this
city since the disastrous fire Of year
ago is to be marked on the evening of
January 1914, when the Havre Fire
department will give it's first annual
ball at the opera house in celebration
of the healthy prosperity our city
now enjoys.
It is the intention Of the fire boys
to hold these dances annually on the
date the fire occurred, January IA.
The opera house will be fittingly dec
grated for the occasion and an electric
display is being arranged for that
will illustrate scenes Of both old and
new Havre. The Havre City band
has been engaged and an effort is be-
ing made to secure the assistance of
the band from Fort AssinDiboine.
Chief West said: IF these celebra-
tions can be established annually it
will doubtless be interesting in years
to come for those who are not famil-
lar with the early days of our city.
"Havre is young city and has at
tanned it's present state Of develop
ment within a few years. 1t is now
strictly modern with modern ways
and ideas and modern methods in all
lines of municipal government. 1t
has its stored past, as a matter Of
course, but not all it's past can COM
pare in enterprise with the splendid
achievements since year ago. The
fire department is sadly in need of
funds to better equip it for the city's
protection. and we hope the dance
will be largely patronized."

ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.

Clyde Turner, a wei known young
man of Harlem, was accidentally shot
early Friday morning by another
young man named Loren Tolbert at
a ranch some SO miles north of Har-
lem. 1t seems that both of the young
men had in a playful mood offered. to
fight a duel and that the challenge
was accepted.
The revolvers, both supposed to be
empty, were lying near at hand, and
these were quickly jerked up and the
triggers snapped. The one in young
Tolbert's hand exploded it's cartridge
and it was discovered that Turner
was shot just below the nipple Of the
left breast.
The injured man was Immediately
taken to his home at Harlem, where
DrS. Hopkins Of Chinook and Rome
Of Harlem dressed the injury. Tur-
ner is resting easily and no serious
results are anticipated unless blood
poisoning sets in.
Tolbert had been using the gun, a
32-calibre, during the day and had
fired all the shots except one, and
when it was snapped the second time
it exploded.
The shooting was purely accidental
and no blame is attached to the young
man who had the gun.
Messrs. Rooney and CroWell will
present '1ick'ry Farm the great
comedy drama, at McIntyre's opera
house in the near future. The COM
pany will be composed Of profession
ais, assisted by home talent. Click
'ry Farm is on the same line as
''Way Down East" The comedy is
fine. The management is
new scenery complete for
this play. Specialties will be intro
duced between acts. The event will
be worth going miles to see.

a.NIan Is Nature,s Enemr., ,,

From London Globe.
Man" says Prof. Lancaster in his
ROmanes lecture at Oxford, sis ma
lures rebel" Natural selection hav-
ing, as supposed, lifted him from so
IOw-the nOmad-tO his present high
estate, is now believed by many Of its
advocates to be a failure as regards
raising him any higher. Having done
so much in the past il is thought to
be incapable Of doing, the little
more which is Of such great import
ance. While in the case Of other
creatures their actions are supposed
to play into the hands Of natural Sc
lection, so that this beneficent force
becomes the alma mater Of new races
in the case Of man it has been other
wise. His own actions have defeated
the aims Of natural selection for his
welfare. Darwin held similarly pes
simistfc views. In one Of my latest
Dr. A R. Wallace, he expressed
himself very glOOmiIy on the future Of
humanity And this was on the
grounds that under present conditions
the httest did not survive, Many
evOlutiOnists, therefore, as Mr.. Fran
els Cation and DR.. A. r. Wallace,
have suggested ways in which natural
selection may be assisted rather than
thwarted in producing a more per-
feet race. The remedy proposed by
Prof Lancaster is that man should
acquire greater control over nature by
means Of a deeper study Of science.
And in the reformed education adYo-
Gated by Prof Lancaster Latin and
Greek are to be eliminated as injur-
iOus.

School Teachers and Beaux.

From Kansas City World
Should a public school teacher have
a beau
This is a question to be discussed
at meeting OF school boards in Wis
cOnsin.
Should she? The teachers, with one
voice, say yes. And the public must
give the same answer unless it wants
its schools to be teacherIess.
Here is the way one prominent
Wisconsin teacher puts it:
Why shouldn't she? She is accus-
toned to settle other weighty prob
lens for herself-why not this one?
II she feels the need Of the spice and
recreation which bagging game OF this
kind is supposed to bring, surely the
privilege is hers to enter the game OF
chance and later draw from the mat
rmiOnial lottery the prize or the blank
1t IS hardly worth while for the out
side world to trouble itself, for she
Will settle this thing for herself"
We hope she will It is her inalien-
able right Just because she gives
herself to the thankIess, under paid
work Of teaching the young, it is not
to be understood that she contracts
away her right to liberty and the pur-
suit Of happiness
America that has bigger kick COM
ing than the school teachers. The man
that cares for the hogs and cattle in
the country receives more pay than
the woman who presides in the little
school house on the hill.
Is it fair2 Do you blame them for
getting out Of the work when the Op-
pOrtunity comes their way?
And now it is proposed to deprive
them OF their beaux.
Do you agree with the narrow
minded school directors who would
put an end to the innocent pleasure
which teachers derive from their
beaux, or do you join in protesting
against the contemplated action as an
invasion Of private rights and pei
sonaI liberty2
There is an old song which fits this
case we'll; rs It AnybOdy's Business
II a Lady Has a Beau2"
The answer is No

Surrender 1t to Daughter.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. ga
showgirl who forms part of the seen
cry at local theatre has been in
formed that she is soon to receive
more than $1,600.0O0. She is Miss
Lilly Bell Brown, known in her pro-
fession as Miss Ida Warren.
Mrs. Clara Bell Brown, mother OF
Miss Brown, wrote last night to H. B.
Moulton, of Washington, D. c., plac.
ing the matter of the inheritance from
the late Sir Reginald Tracy, of Eng.
land and Australia, in his hands for
adjustment. In 1898 Mrs. Brown and
her pretty little daughter were in
Washington. where the mother was
chief officer OF the Cuban League.
Reginald Tracy, wealthy English
bachelor of middle age, contracted a
fatherly fondness of Miss Brown.
Just after the rapidly successive
deaths of Mr.. Tracy's father, uncle
and three cousins made him Sir Regi-
maid Tracy, his engagement to the
widow, Mrs. Brown, was announced.
The wedding day was set and the
wedding gown was ordered. Pending
the arrival of both. however, Sir Regi-
maid went to Australia to settle up
his large estate IN that country pre-
paratory to permanent residence in
America. The night before he was to
sail for this country and his bride
death overlook him. He had given a
farewell bachelor dinner to q few
friends in Melbourne and had had a
stroke Of apoplexy. A few weeks pre-.
yious to this unhappy ending of a
convivial dinner he had written to his
prospective bride that he had pro-
yided for her in case of encountering
an accident while crossing the water.
The vicissitudes of fortune brought
mother and daughter to San Francisco
where the daughter strove to help the
mother by standing as a show girl
against the scenery on various local
stages. A letter from an attorney in
Australia informed Mrs. Brown that
the will of Sir Reginald Tracy had
been found, whereby she received
one-third of an estate valued at near.
