Paris. Nov. l6.-A pathetic case is
now occupying the courts, in which a
consumptive boy had to choose be-
tween semi-starvation and probable
death with his mother. and luxury and
all care with his father.

pretty milliner named Mile. Mallard.
After four years Of mutual affection

ncdiately, as Is allowed in French law,
officially recognized by the student as
his son.
Then the romance of the students
life came to an end. NJ. Jacquet had
to leave his companion and enter his
fathers business. He gave her $500,
and agreed to pay her $3.50 q month
toward the support Of his son until he
attained his majority. Shortly after

ROOSEVELT REPUBLICAN

Thinks Herald is Democratic and I'D.
v0cates Support of G. o. p. Papers.
Editor Evening Times: OF course
every body has noticed that Mr.. Win
ship in his Sunday Herald warmly
advocates the appointment Of a demo-
crat to fill the Office of district Judge
soon to be vacated by Judge Fisk. Why
does he do this? As between stalwart
republicans and insurgents of course
every body knows that he posed as an
insurgent. But as between democrats
and insurgents who would have
thought that he, after all his profess
sions as leader of the insurgent move
ment, would desert the insurgents
lawyers and stand for a democrat?
This Is the straw which breaks the
republican elephants back and lets
MIR. Winship down astride the demo-
cratic mule. Will the insurgents of
this judicial district stand for this new
political boss putting them all in the
mire hole for democrat? And what
do the insurgents throughout the state
think OF this uncalled desertion of
party, for surely there are insurgent
lawyers in Grand Forks who are
qualified for the judgeship The only
answer possible is that Mr.. WinshiD
Is a democrat. And the only way we
see to build up republican party is
to subscribe for some good daily re-
publican paper like The Evening
Times, the Fargo Forum or the Fargo
Call, all OF which advocate republican
doctrine-papers that stand for repub-
licans and republican principles. To-
start the ball rolling and set what I
think is good example. ask The
Evening Times to put me on the sub
scription list for one year and send
me bill of the amount at once.

orators will restore the wage reduc-
tion of two years ago and perhaps give
more.
The statement is as follows:
"You may accept one proposition as
a fixed fact-that there will be no gen
eral strike in the mining industry on
April 1. The operators will restore the
reduction accepted by the miners two
years ago. and perhaps more F. L.
of Pennsylvania, and Mr.
Taylor. of Illinois, leaders of the BIZ
luminous coal operators, recognize
their untenable position at Indianapo-
lis and have gracefully submitted to
the inevitable and will pay an advance
TO the miners.
"a general strike will be averted
Business will not be paralyzed by in
dustrial strife An era of peace will
be established for another period of
years and the trade agreement method
Of settling labor disputes will win new
friends to its standard.
The anthracite operators must now
grant an advance in view of the action
1f the bituminous operators. The de-
ails will be worked out later and prob
ibly through a special national con-
sention of the mine workers.

RED METAL MINING COMPANY
NAME OF VAST HOLDING
CORPORATION JUST
FORMED.

New York. Feb. 2G.-Thomas 2.
Cole. of Duluth. is director of the Red
Metal Mining company of New York
Incorporated at Albany with a capital
of s11, ,OOO. 900. which is believed to be
the embryo holding company that is
TO take over the harmonized copper
interests in Montana. Other directors
named are Thomas Thornton and Roy
S. Alley. of Butte. and Charles d. Fra
ser and John o. Layor, of this city.
On Feb. 13 il was announced that
Thomas F. Cole, acting in the interest
of the Amalgamated company, had pur-
chased a majority of the copper mines
owned by the Heinzes and the United
Copper company, including all those in
dispute between the two companies
and that new holding company would
be formed to bring about a general
settlement of the copper war followed
by a general clearing up and the unfit
cation of the leading interests in the
country.
Rival to u. =. Steel Corporation.
A member of a banking firm closely
associated with the Heinzes said that
the new company in time would take
over the Amalgamated, the United, and
probably other big copper interests in
the Butte camp. possibly including
those of Senator w. a. Clark. He also
stated that the present capitalization
will be taken by underwriters and that
ultimately the capital will be increas-
ed to a vast sum, probably even great
er than that of the United States Steel
corporation.
While no representative of the Anal
gamated could be found who would
discuss the plans of the company, it
was remembered that John ID. Ryan,
president of the Anaconda, one of the
Amalgamated subsidiaries, stated at
the time he announced the settlement
that a general grouping of all the big
copper interests might be taken up
later, and that the new company would
be in a position to take over any prop
critics that a general scheme of har-
monious action in the copper world
might require.
Cole Holds Big Interest.
The settlement of the long copper
war between Heinze and H. H. Rogers
and the purchase of Heinze's mines
was conducted by Messrs. Ryan and
Cole Although Amalgamated is the
dominant factor it is known that Cole
has large interest in the new order
of things, being the chief factor in the

GODDESS UNDISTURRED IN Sane
TUARY ONE OF DISCOVERIES
OF THE PRESENT :
YEAR,

London, Feb. 26.-The Egypt explo-
ration funds excavations of Thebes
this year have produced wonderful re-
suits. The explorers have been exca-
waiting at the oldest temple known in
Thebes, which belongs to the 11th dy-
nasty Working at the back OF the
temple the explorers found the remains
of shrine of the 18th dynasty. 1900
B. c. The first discovery was a fine
statue which was quite perfect. Then
suddenly the removal of a few stones
revealed a chapel covered with sculp-
lures, the colors whereof were abso-
lutely fresh. Ii was about 10x5 feet.
The roof was vaulted and painted with
yellow stars.
Statue of "a Cow.
The chapel was dedicated to Hather.
goddess of the mountain of the west,
who generally is in the form of a COW.
In the chapel is the statue of a beauti-
full COW of life size of painted lime
stone. The head and horns evidently
have been overlaid with gold. The
next is adorned with papyrus stems OF
flowers, as if she we're coming out of
the water
The COW is sucking a little boy, who
again is represented as a grown man
under he- neck. A cartouche behind
the head is OF Amenophis H., son of
Thothmes ILL.,, who ruled Egypt 100
years before the beginning of the
Christian era. and whose sculptures
cover the walls.
This is the first time a goddess has
been found undisturbed in her sane
tuary More over, no COW has ever
been found of such size and superb
workmanship. The modelling of the an
imal is exquisite. the distinctive char
acteristics of the Egyptian cattle OF
the present day being reproduced.
VIII he Removed to Cairo.
The statue is uninjured except in a
small piece of the right ear. The COW
wears the special insignia of the god
dess Lunar and the disc between the
horns is surmounted by two feathers.
There is so much life in the head that
the goddess appears as If about to
step out of her sanctuary.
Soldiers Immediately were plac-
ed on guard night and day. The
statue will be removed to Caire as
soon as possible. The shrine also
probably will be taken down and re-
built in a museum. It's value is too
enormous and the difficulties OF guard
ing It so great that it is too serious a
risk to leave it in its present position.
