AFFECT PROSPERITY

H\HE Baltimore American, prudent and
conservative always, joins in the
u general chorus that the future is full
of better things. In speaking of the re-
cent words of good cheer uttered by the
president and the issue of Panama canal
bonds and treasury certificates, the
American says:
THE people who have begun the ridic-
ulous practice of boarding are expected
to be induced to bring out their stocking
savings and to take up certificate issues.
The banks will be enabled to handle the
bonds in a way to suit their convenience,
cash not being required until money be-
comes easier
President Roosevelt has thrown the
light of assurance on the situation, say
ing that there Is no reason for these
times of buoyant prosperity to become
affected by timidity. rhe business of
the country is on sound basis, and
only normal attitude on the part of
the people is necessary for the pros
perity harvest to continue to find its way
into the hands of the people. The presi-
dent alludes to the infinite superiority
OF financial ccnditicas over what they
were during the depression of 1898. Even
without his contrast between the period
or an exhausted treasury and that of
one with nearly billion of dollars. beN
tween times when the financial distress
had become acute and those in which 1t
is illogical and not in any sense symp-
tomato, the observation of the people
themselves should disclose there Ia no
real reason for the apprehension that is

False Messiahs.

The defense Of different persons
claiming to be the Messiah has cost
the Jews great expense, both in
treasure and human life. One of these,
Coziba, who lived in the second cen
tury of our era, put himself at the
head of the Jewish nation as their
Messiah, and many of that people ad-
hered to and defended him. The Ro-
mans made war upon Coziba and his
followers, and, according to admissions
made by eminent Jewish authority,
they lost somewhere between 100000
and 100000 men in his defense. The
last of these impostors was Mordecai,
a German, who first claimed to be Of
divine origin in the year 1862. When
the authorities threatened to punish
him as an impostor he fed. and his end
is not known.

Rich Strike Reported
Near Thompson Falls
Local Owners in the Mint Re-
ioice Over Strike in Mon
tana Coeur d'Alenes.

Local stockholders in the Mint Min
ing Co, whose claims are located near
Thompson Falls are rejoicing over a
reported rich strike in the Montana
Standard, an adjoining property.
Among the local stockholders in the
Mint are its president, J. L. Humble,
A. C. Baker, G. A. Reese, Jack Camp
bell, F. M. Lockwood, o. G. Cooper
aud others.
The Times, published at Wallace,
has the following to say concerning
the reported rich strike which has
been rep ,rted in the Montana andard
mine, located near Thompson, in
which the people Of the county seat of
Sanders county are placing great
deal of confidence:
1.-The first authentic news of the
rich strike at the Montana-Standard !,
near Thompson Falls, Mont, was re-
ceived here yesterday, when a sample
of the ore struck a few days ago was
brought here. Some of the ore shows
pure lead, and is the, best seen here in
some time. The assay made couple
of days ago at Missoula was y per
the ton. There is reported to be 19
feet of ore so far, but it appears to be
| widening.
"The story of the development of
the MontanaStandard reads like fc-
tion. For IA years John Murphy, the
foriginal locator, struggled along,
working the proserty whenever possi-
| BILE. All along Murphy had implicit
confidence in the property, but, with
out means, he was not able to develop
it with anything like rapidity. Many
times during the IA years, with bills
coming due and no money to make
payment, Mr., Murphy was tempted to
| throw up the sponge. In 1889 John
| Frederick, editor of Mines and Metals
in this city, visited Murphy at his
claim, the property now known as the
MISUNDERSTANDING.
Murphy was about discouraged,
said Mr.. Frederick last night in dis
cussing the strike on the Montana-
| Standard, and there is not d question
in my mind but that he would have
disposed of half interest in the mine
for song. 1 suggested to him the
advantage of incorporating, but al
that time he was not sufficiently vel
versed in that part of the mining
| game to do so.''

An Unuallant Actor,

A well known American actor, who
b old enough not to consider himself
matinee idol by any means, was
somewhat surprised and pleased in a
st. Louis hotel a short time ago when
a pretty girl stopped him in the cor
ridor and presented him with rose,
without saying word. He was more
surprised and less pleased to receive
a note the following day remindinc
him Of the incident and asking him to
send the giver of the flower two seats
at the theater in which he was playing
"as memento of the occasion"
''My dear young lady," the actor re
piled, waxing sarcastic as he realized
what had been the object Of the at.
tention he had been paid, 81 would be
glad to send you the seats you ask for
but, on consultation with the manager
of the theater, l have been Informed
that the seats are all fastened down
and that he is opposed to having them
sent away as souvenirs in any event
so that you will have to be contented
with an autograph for a souvenir OF
your benevolence Of yesterday in
stead."-Harper's Weekly.

Strenuous Chivalry.

1t is complained that modern condi-
tions are killing "the chivalry of the
middle ages" But medieval tales
and romances show what that chivalry
really was. Wife beating was a COM
mon incident on the part of those
knights and gentlemen whose gallantry
was Il mere convention. The Chevalier
de la Tour-Landry in his book Of coun-
sells to his daughters tells them the
story of woman who used, to contra
dict her husband in public. One day,
after expostulating in vain, he knock
ed her down, then kicked her face and
broke her nose. "And So" comments
the good chevalier, ''she was disfg
ured for life, and thus, through her i'll
behavior and bad temper, she had her
nose spoiled, which was great mis-
fortune to her." But not a word is said
about the husbands brutality.

Beats Radium For Cost.

If you object to paper money, but
wish to carry big values in small COM
pass, you might do worse than lay in
a stock of best lenses for microscopes.
Weight for weight, gold is not nearly
so valuable as glass in the form of
powerful lenses, and an ordinary purse
filled with sucn lenses might easily
represent fortune. The record in
crease in the value of the manufac-
tured article over the raw material is
probably made by this variety of glass,
which multiplies itself 50O00,00O times.
The front lens Of micro objective in
strument costing about fl weighs no
more than about O017 Of a gram;
hence the value of such lenses to the
weight of about two and quarter
pounds would be about 100000. The
cost Of making this weight Of glass is
~ pence to pence, and thus when
worked up into the shape of lens the
glass has increased in value about So,

Deadly Danger in Cele=
bration Wounds
Secretary Tuttle Of the State
Board of Health Issues
a Warning.

Helena, June 29.-Dr. T. D. Tuttle,
secretary of the state board of health,
has issued circular regarding Fourth
of July wounds. 1t reads as follows:
Each Fourth of July celebration re-
suits in a number of deaths from
tetanus Qockjaw). This disease re-
suits from germ that exists abun-
dantly in the dirt of the streets, and
especially around barns and manure
piles. 1t is harmless when exposed to
light and air, but when it enters a
wound, such as results from percussion
caps, toy pistols, etc, in which the air
is excluded, this germ immediately be-
comes active and generates one of the
most deadly poisons known to science,
and one that causes the most extreme
suffering.
Beware Of the celebration wounds
No matter how insignificant the wound
may appear, go to physician and
have the wound properly and thorough
ly cleansed.
''If the wound is a severe one, or if
| manure or street dirt has gotten into
| it, the patient should be given an i'm
| munizing dose of tetanus antitoxin
No case of tetanus has been known to
develop when an immunizing dose of
this serum has been given immediately
after the wourd was received.
Tetanus is not common in Montana,
| but the state is not free from it. Last
year two deaths resulted from this dis,
ease as a result of Fourth of July
wounds. The year before the same
cause claimed three. How many will
| it claim this year? Will your boy be
one of them? He may be if you
neglect the apparently insignificant
wound resulting from percussion caps
and toy pistol. He is practically sure
to have street dirt on his hands an d
has probably been around the barn
