4 Portrait Of N1ontana's copper King

DAILY was a man of medium height
and stocky figure. A splendid, full
rounded head topped a we'll knit body.
His eye was marvelously clear, and his
voice. in conversation, was low and
mellow His feet were small and his
hands. despite the hardships of his
early life, were delicate and shapely as
a woman's He had had no early adj
vantages He was born in Ireland
and left that country when he was not
vet fifteen. He sold newspapers in
New York and later obtained employ
ment as messenger in a mercantile or
banking house IN that city, where he
saved enough money to take him by
water to California. From there he
drffted UP to the Comstock in Nevada,
and then went to Montana. He would
have forced himself up through power
ty and obscurity had he never discov-
cred the Butte hill. No man was
shrewder in his everyday intercourse
with men. Few knew the real work
ings Of his mind-he seemed to divine
the mental processes Of others. He
did not belong to that race Of poverty

fortunes of others but nothing for
their own.-From "The Story Of Mon

A STRONG
CURRENT
Noticed by the Skipper
Of the Transport
Logan.

ION APPROACHING THE ISLAND
OF OAHU I NOTICED A STRONG
WESTERLY SET"
This is the way Captain Stinson of
the United States Army Transport
Logan described to Captain Humphrey,
u. S. Depot Quartermaster, u. S. A,
his observation of currents encounter
ed by the transport as she neared Ho-
nolulu. The transport arrived here
Wednesday.
This is direct confirmation of the
statement made by Captain Dowdell of
the Oceanic liner Alameda and is in
line with the reports of various island
captains as to an unusual commotion
in the waters around the islands since
the Valparaiso disaster, which was
apparently followed by a tidal wave
sweeping clear across the Pacific Ocean
from Chile to the Hawaiian Islands
and beyond.
Captain Humphrey states that in
conversation with Captain Stinson
the incident of the current was brought
up. The statement was made while
the officers We're discussing the SEEM
ingly Incredible maneuvering of the
steamship Manchuria which resulted in
her piling up on the coral reef in Wal
nanalo Bay several miles to the north
ward of the usual steamer course
through the channel between Oahu and
Molokai en- route to Honolulu.
1t is understood that Captain Stin-
son put his observations in writing and
forwarded the same to Captain Saun-
ders.
Captain Stinson's statement may
have an important bearing on the in
quiry on the Manchuria disaster and
will tend to clear up the mystery of
the Manchuria's almost unaccountable
course so far off the usual track of
steamers.
From the statements made by Cap
tain Dowdell and Captain Stinson it
begins to look as if the currents were
in a large measure responsible for the
wrecking of the big steamship. 1t is
not unlikely that Captains Dowdell and
Stinson may be called to testify at the
inquiry, to give expert testimony as
to the marine conditions at about the
time the Manchuria met with her acci-
dent.
Captain Stfnson also stated that he
took pains. Immediately upon ascer-
tanning the direction of the current, to
counteract its influence on the trans
port.

THE YELLOW PERIL.

BOSTON, Augut 14.-Charles J. Gid
den. the millionaire Boston autoist, who
recently completed an auto tour around
the world. including a trip through
China and Japan, declared today that,
from his observations, the yellow
periI'' was really dangerous-not to be
scoffcd at or overlooked He said that
.Japanese merchants We're responsible
for the boycott of American goods, and
that the time was not far away when
the white races. if they wished to hold
the trade of China, must have greater
control over the country, or Japan
wonld updersen every other foreign
manufacturer 40 to 30 per cent. A
prominent japanese told him in Toxic
that Japan did not care to rule China,
but would not allow any other nation
to control it. "<To protect the Philip
pines and our interests in the East, .
GIidden concluded. "our navy should
be largely increased.
