on Schwab by unloading his TonOpah Elk
tension and clearing up more than mil
hon dollars, says the San Francisco Jour
nal of Commerce.
There are many stories told about the
wonderful price that was paid for Mont
gomery- Shoshone, but the parties inter-
ested would never give the figure. There
was a romantic tale in which Mrs. Mont
gomery, wife of Bob" Montgomery. the

effect that she had stood out for $4,000 coo
and had got her price. There was about
as much truth in this romanie as in the
other Monte CriStO stories

this is the work which Schwab engaged

the property.
GiIies in Mechanics Shoes.
AS a matter of fact, Mr. Gillies now
occupies the position once held by John
McKane in regard to the Schwab prop
critics in Nevada. McKane was not known
again in the Montgomery Shoshone deal
after the elimination of his expert Camp
bell, and IL did not appear OF record any
wheDe, that he acquired any of the new
holdings. After the deal was cOnSum-
mated. Schwab. Macdonald, Montgomery,
Gillies and McKane made the trip through
the Bull1rOS district together and all but
Macdonald came to the city. McKane
continued east with his former partner
and hacker and continued on to Scotland.
AS far as the two men were concerned
socially, there appeared to be no differ
ences between them. McKane went to
Scotland, but is now back in New York
He disclaims even now that there is
split between him and Schwab, but New
York. Denver, BullfrOg and TOnOpah
know better.
How McKane Got Even.
1t was in the early part of the year
that the party was here, the Gea1 hay
ing been consumed in January. At that
time TOnOpah Extension was regarded as
che of the best buys on the market, and
it was freely predicted that the STOCK
would go to $50 share. 1t was after the
return of Schwab and McKane to the
east that the stock began tC weaken in
price and the selling began On the day
before the fire the stock was 81 a share.
Some two weeks later Schwab went to
Europe and returned TO find his whilom
partner without any TOnOpah Extension
on hand; with a million dollars or more
TO his credit, and the price of TonOpah
Extension below So a share.
AT present figures Mr.. SchWab is mil
lions ahead on TOnopah Extension. His
stock cost him originally fifteen cents a
share and it mas sold as high as SO a
share. Mckanr. if he paid anything ut
all for his stock, paid not more than fiji
teen cents share; and at the time he
took he option the stock was going beg

Francisco people who got in at the high
figures, because of SchNab's connection
with the property are the people who suf-

deal. Schwab is nothing out; the public as
usual, is the sufferer.

NORTH DAKOTA,S GREAT
MARCH OF PROGRESS

forever INF North Dakota. The farmers
have paid off their mortgages. They
have deposited their money in the
banks of the state until the latter
are crammed to repletion. The man
who wants to borrow money on his
North Dakota property now can get
all he wants at per cent, and 80 high
has the value of North Dakota &C.
curlty become in the East that the
big corporations there are hustling for
state business at the lower rate.
With the increase of railway mileage
In the state, which Is now going on ut
surprising rate, its prosperity is GER
tain to be tremendously enhanced dur
Ing the next few years. The great
system of roads that traverse the state
are extending their feeders so that in
few years time there will not be a
section of the state that is not close
to u railway. AS fast as these lines
are extended towns are springing up
like mushrooms, and elevators and
banks are being established all along
lhe lines. Branch lines of road extend
themselves fifty and sixty miles into
new country, and Immediately
enought business is offered them to
put them on paying basis. The rail-
ways have conducted a campaign of
education throughout the country and
have done much to inform the people
OF other states of what North Da-
kota has to offer them. They have
been the direct means of bringing
many thousands to the state, and in
SO doing have wisely builded for their
own, profit. The railways have no ands
for sale, but every additional acre that
Is put under cultivation means so
many dollars for them in the trans
portation of its products.
Millions Of Acres Left.
The state Of North Dakota has many
millions of acres of state lands that it
offers to settlers on the most favorable
terms and 1t has for some years con-
Quoted a campaign of publicity to let
the residents of other states know of
the advantages North Dakota offers
them. The efforts of the state have
been ably supplemented by the rail-
ways and the land dealers of the state.
and the result is seen in the tide of
immigrants that every train going into
the state carries. The end of 1906 will
probably see population of half a
million in North Dakota, and the area
OF land brought under cultivation will
be Increased by many millions by this
new population.
= One of the first questions that Is
asked by the majority of intending
settlers in the state is about the school
facilities. In this respect North Da-
kota is second to no other state. It
expended on its public school system
IN 1904 $2.6S2.1O7. In that year it had
$500 schools, and $3.50 teachers EN-.
ployed In them. The educational needs
OF the state were literally regarded hy

land set aside for public education,
This land endowment is today worth
$5o,0Oo,ooo. and as 1t is yearly in.
creastns In value it will in time form
heritage for the schols of the state
that will not be equaled In value by
any other one of the great American
sisterhood.

The Delights Of Bent Iron Work.

Try bent iron work. The delight in
working with the pliers, riveting, paint
Ing. ETC., and above all, fitting the work
together, building it up and seeing it
grow slowly but surely from the first
small scroll to the complete article,
makes the hobby one Of the most in
teresting and fascinating imaginable.
Although appearing difacult, and
seeming to require some of the mys-
FERROUS art. of the smith, without any
of his forge work, it is really very
simple. The rapidity with which a
scroll or curve can be formed after a
little practice will astonish the begin
ner. Its advantages as hobby are
its cheapness; it causes little dirt in
the house; one can work standing or
sttdng-a great advantage. And the
most elementary artist will find no
difficulty in making his own patterns.

Food For Beauty.

A friend of mine, who is famous
authority on food and cookery, is ask
ed over and over again, what food
will make brain?" She tells her
friends, laughingly, that If she could
answer that question correctly her
fortune would be made. am asked
likewise. dozens of times, "How can
make myself beautiful" But there
is no more magic recipe for beauty
than there is for increasing ones
brain power. Eat good, nourishing
food, that will build up the body gen.
orally and the brain will share in the
stimulus" is my friends answer to
her inquirers. Look we'll to all the
small things that make for beauty a
charm and distinction that is worth
quite as much in the worlds eye as
beauty ITSELF" is my answer to those
who ask mex.

One of the attractive features of the
isle of Spice" which comes to the
MISUNDERSTANDING evening, is the
song, THE Goo Goo man." sung by
comedian Charles Pussy and twelve
young and pretty little girls stunning

be one of the most sensational hits ever
heard In musical comedy. and it is
claimed that the audiences in other
cities have invariably demanded from
a dozen to fifteen encores. which is
surely a record. Everyone will prob
ably be whistling. "The Goo Goo Man"

IONS The mind thus isolated must
totter to its ruin, or become so
thoroughly selfish as to be at variance
with all nature. Even in the inanimate
kingdom the doctrine sof companion
ship exists. A single leaf upon tree
is a type of desolation and deser-
ton. "The last rose of summer, left
blooming alone" is type of lone
illness that appeals to the tender
sympathies of the soul. We naturally

of his own self-chosen fortune. He
Is unfriendly to every one, and as a
natural consequence finds a pust re-
compense In the unfriendliness Ut
those he is forced to meet.
Old friends are truly valuable. Tho
newcomer can not altogether fill the
place In our hearts of those who ,by
years of pleasant association have
established themselves firmly in our

thought, oneness In desire and a
unison OF action that comes only from
long acquaintance and sharing in
numerous common experiences. There
is similarity In appearance that grows
with constant companionship. Az the
