Training the Boy.

writer's name We found tina. Mrs
Flora NJ. Irvine. Burleish Co. y. D.,
is the writer OF these good thoughts.
Such mothers cannot fail TO bring

at the present time. How We wish

TO US.
The mother who is ever ready to
her boys with books. suitable and pre-
sentable dress and social environment

We believe most mothers desire to
see their sons grow up to be men If
pronineace-to make their mark in
the world, but alas. how many sons
grow to point where they become
ashamed Of mother and her old ways.
Such base ungratitude makes one dis
couraged at times; yet we must re-
member when We are training our
boys that one of the fundamental prin-
ciples that enter into the character If
all good and great men is-unselfsh-
ness.
We must so direct our interest in
the boy that he will appreciate from
day to day what is being sacrificed for
his interests; we must so root out
selfishness and ingraft spirit of char

The one great calamity that stares

threatens to undermine Christianity is
selfishness. How shall we overcome

Climbed Mount Mckinley

A dispatch from Seward to the Ju- neau Daily Dispatch says:
 Seward, Oct. l--The ascent of Mount Mckinley has been accomplished and the scientific world awaits with expect ancy the report of the successful party of mountain climbers The Cook party, which for several years has vain ly sought a route to the top ot the highest mountain in Alaska, has at last accomplished it's object. The top of the mountain was reached Sept. 10 after climb that developed obstacles and dangers almost unimaginable. When the peak was reached the ther- mometer registered sixteen below zero. The weather was cloudy and it was i'm possible to make the barometers work. The height of the mountain could not be computed exactly, but Prof. Cook estimates it to be 22,0 800 feet.
 It took four days to make the ascent from the base to the top. lhere was no semblanoe of q trail and in some places upward progress was well nigh impossible. After taking what obser- vations that could be made under the poor weather conditions, the party descended and went to Sunrise. The steamer Tyonic, which happened to be at Sunrise brough tout the news of the successful ascent.
 Prof. Cook has headed parties to scale Mount Mckinley for the last three years. He has had every appurt- enance for mountain climbing and has made determined efforts to succeed, but the impedements were so great that each trial has been unsuccessful until the present. He attacked the mountain from every side and finally found a pass on the north side.

Model Towns
MINING REPORTER


 The operations of large corporations carry in their wake many benefits. One of these is the provision of place Of habi,ation for their employees. The erection of model towns such as are being built at many industrial works is no philanthropic scheme or attempt at sociological reform. On the contrary, it is largely the exigeneies of modern industrial conditions which make new towns necessary. It is net always best or even possible to locate factories and works near present cities or towns, consequently the towns must be built at the site of the works. This is under taken by the company as part of it's investment, the interest on which is provided by the rentals charged the employees.
 It having become necessary to pro vide some sort of habitation for en- ployees, it is apparent that the money spent might just as well be made to yield the best returns, not only finan cially, but in every other way. This means that advantage will De taken of the latest and best methods of con- struction; that the materials used will be such as to require the least expense of maintenance, and that owing to the excellency of the engineering and con- structing force st the command of a large company, as we'll as it's faniliari- " of the markets and ability to pur- chase in large quantities at low cost, the entire scheme will be carried to completion in the best possible man ner. The realization of these decided Iy material facts will show at once that the idea of a model town is not con- ceived with a view to reform or an attempt to place the laborer in ideal conditions. If, however, the project should ultimately develop some Uto- plan ideals, so much the better.
 It is inevitable that certain social improvements should result from the erection of model town. Improve ments of a public nature which could not be undertaken by individuals such as water works, lighting plants1 sewer age system, pavementsY etc, can be secured by the inhabitants at minimum cost. The town site can be laid out symmetrically with view to it's ex pansion aud for the greatest conVen fence to all concerned. Means can bC provided for the material and soeia needs of the community, as that thr employee need not feel constrained t' seek anything elsewhere. All of thi will contribute to the contentment O the Iaborer, which is an importan factor in industrial operations.
 Among the large companies operat ing in the West, some have already pn' into execution the idea of a mode town.

PLAY TRICK
ON POLICE

VIENNA, Dec. THE audacity Of
ed himself off as an imperial army in
spector has it's counterpart in an
amusing trick which has just been
played on the constabulary of the
Austrian town of Troppau. A new po-
lice station had been built and rooted
with so-called metallic waterproof
tiles. On the day after it's Inaugural
ton, two men, dressed in the NUM-
cipal fire brigade uniform and repre-
senting themselves to be acting under
superior orders, commenced to remove
the tiles. explaining to the inspector
in charge that the authorities had been
advised that new metallic" tiles were
dangers in a thunderstorm, being con-
ductors of electricity. The unsuspect-
ing policeman gave them a hand in
taking down the tiles, which were
loaded on care the men had brought
the unhappy guardians of the peace
finished, the self-styled firemen drove
away, promising to return later with
ordinary tiles with which to recover
the roof. Presently a violent rain
storm came on and the unfortunate
-shelterless policeman telephoned to
headquarters asking that the roof
might be properly repaired as thew
were being washed out. Nothing, how
ever. was known at the central office
of an order to re-roof the building.
and now that the truth has leaked out

ROSE BOYS up
FOR BATTERY
They Thrashed Matheson
Who Slew Dog That
Ate Chickens
Special to Evening Teller.

Special to Evening Teller.
GRANGEvILLE, Idaho, Dec. -
Considerable interest Is centered in the
case here being heard before Justice
Jaques in which the Rose boys are
charged with assault and battery by
Mat Matheson. The entire trouble
arose over the shooting Of dog which
persisted in killing chickens.
The defense is being represented by
George w. Goode and the prosecution
is being handled by Prosecuting At
torney Hardy and l. N. Scales.
The Rose boys. according to the gem
eral evidence in the case, had fine
dog OF which they were very proud.
as well as fond. The dog had one bad
habit, however. according to some Of
the evidence, and that was that he
was fond OF chickens and would slip
into the neighbors' hen roost and
feast.
Matheson. according to part Of the
i
evidence. was one Of the victims Of
the dogs unsuitable hunger for chick
ems. and catching the dog in the act
sent bullet through his heart.
The Rose boys, who are Of the faith
'of most country communities. that
they can settle their own minor trou-
bles without the aid Of the law, did
not walt for the more cumbersome
process Of punishment, but met
Matheson by himself and proceeded
to administer what chastisement laid
in the strength of their muscles. They
were SO effective in their work that
Matheson believed the proper revenge
would be in the law.
The case has already consumed sew
eral days and large number Of wit
nesses have been called and 1t is
thought the argument win be heard
and the case concluded today.
