Low in the fertile vale by Tunstal's Run
A rainy rifle skirmish closed the day.
Beyond the April-swollen narrow stream,
Lees stubborn rearguard veteran tragedies
Lay prone amid last years tobacco stalks,
Shooting hot Enfields straight from red-mud

While from their rear four angry howitzers,
High set on Armistead's Plantation Hill,
Flamed shrieking she'll o'erhead across the
bridge
That Custer ragged to seize before black night
Should close his daylong toll in mud and
rain.
Thrice did we gallop vainly at the planks,
Then vainly strove on foot the pass to win,
Till through the drilling dark but flashes
The points where sullen rifles opposite rang,
And back we struggled, stumbling up the
Where Union buglers shrilled the bivouac.
Ninety unanswering voices told our loss
While silence ruled SO deep We heard the

Small rataplan on ponchos and on hats,
Until the cracking rail-fence Company fires
Lighted the piney length Of Clusters Ridge.

Law Slackness.

All failure to enforce law is bad, but
in certain classes of law slackness is
not so mischievous as it is in others.
There is a group of laws aiming to re-
strain men from preying on the vices of
their fellows and thereby weakening
the physical and the moral fibre of the
population. If saloon, dive, gambling
den, betting ring, or pool room, bride
themselves free of these laws, they not
only continue their work of ruin, but
incidentally the police is corrupted and,
in measure, all law is weakened-E.

DEATH OF p. LARSON.
Millionaire Passes Away at Helena
After Two Years
illness.

Peter Larson of Helena, the we'll
known millionaire mining man and
railroad contractor died Friday night
at Helena after two years illness.
Mr.. Larson, who came to this cOun-
try 38 years ago, a penniless youth
but 20 years of age, was conceded to
be the wealthiest man in the north
west with the exception of Senator
William A. Clark Of Montana. His
wealth probably exceeds $10000,000,
and by some people he was rated as
being worth more than $20,000,000.
He and Thomas Greenough of Mis-
soula at one time owned the Morning
mine at Mullan. The property was
sold less than two years ago to the
Federal Mining & Smelling company
for 100000. Mr.. Larson owned a
half interest of the property.
Mr.. Larson was born in 1849 on the
Danish island of Fyen. In 1859 he
came to this country and went to work
on the jetties at the mouth of the Mis-
sissippi river, going later to Arkansas,
where he first began railroad work.
His contracts for railroad building
were the first ventures to make him
rich. Among other lines Mr.. Larson
built the Wallace-Missoula branch of
the Northern Pacific, the Spokane
Falls & Northern, and the Washington
Central. He also had large banking
and timber interests.
In 1880 Mr.. Larson welded Miss Mo-
ran of Cascade, Iowa.
Mr.. Larson's illness and death was
an indirect result of the Clallam dis
aster, for he was on the ill fated
steamer, bound for Victoria, B. c., and
after the wreck was afloat in the cold
water for several hours before he was
finally rescued. Cirrhosis of the liver
resulted and eventually caused his
death. About a year ago he Joined
the Roman Catholic church at Helena.
