'.The result Of our poll which in
cluded members Of the last four leg
islatures Of Montana, and members OF
the county committees, showed secre-
tary Taft to be the preference of
three-flfths, said Or, Landstrum
'one-iifth was Tor Roosevelt and
the other fifth scattering. most Or
them fayoring Hughes. We ex-
pressly asked the men to whom iet-
tiers were sent not to vote for Roose-
welt, but, as 4 have indicated, this
request was disregarded.
There Is no doubt in my mind
that Montana win send a delegation
to the convention Instructed 70 vote
for Taft, Heretofore, state delegates
have been the two senators, the goy-
ernor and our member or congress,
but in as much as Senator Dixon has
said that he win not go to the ma
-tional convention as delegate this
year. II Is generally UNDERSTOOD that
Montana viii depart from her cus-
tom and name private citizens for
delegate
AN ideal and Invincible ticket, /
think, would be Taft and, Hughes. 81
the latter could be induced to take
second place.
"As to the election, / think Mon

necessary for us to go to silver Bow
county, the largest county IN the
state, which occupies relatively the
same position to the rest of the state
that New York City does to New

CYRUS w. FIELD
OLD IRELAND AND YOUNG
AMERICA.

May their honeymoon last forever. 4"
Mr.. Field was well entitled to all
the praise showered upon him. He
had been scoffed at, ridiculed, dub
bed a crazy man, had sacrificed his
business and his own means, and had
previously made two attempts to lay
the cable, only to be thwarted.
Unfortunately for all the rejoic-
ings, for some unknown reason, the
cable stopped working just at the
time of the great official celebration
in Trinity church, and OF the dinner
of the Common council to Mr.. Field.
at which they served no less than 1S
entrees in addition to five roasts,
boiled turkey and mutton and full
80 desserts.
For Mr.. Field this meant doing the
work over again. The old company
had exhausted its means, which were
gone for all time; a new one had to
be formed and fresh capital raised.
There were endless trips to be made
to the other side, his business again
had to be neglected, and finally
abandoned. The civil war came
next; but this proved to be a help
rather than a hindrance, and Mr.
Fields alert brain made the most of
it. He suggested cables between the
Union posts in Charleston harbor;
he pointed out how the existence of
cable would have robbed the Ma
son-Silidell crisis with England of
much of its danger and made of it
and incident of days instead of
months, without the consequent i'll
feeling and heavy expenditure on the
British side for war preparations
Mr.. Field did yoeman's work, too. in
UNFOLDING the cause of the North in
England when il was highly unpopu-
lar, and began friendship with Glad
stone to put the case of the North be-
fore him as strongly as possible.
But his main efforts were devoted to
the laying of a cable that would
work, and this he finally accomplish
ed, by the aid of the Great Eastern,
on September s, 1866. after another
failure in 1865.

The fire at Lofts bay, which had

did considerable damage, but ac-
cording to the reports from there to-
day it is again under control of the

ing and every precaution is being

Willie.
Yes. Anthracite coal Is what we call
hard coal. So anthracite must mean
hard Now. can you tell me what
'bituminOus' meansT'
That's coal. too" Willie replied.
But 1t isn't the same kind OF coal
that anthracite is. is il? Bituminous
coal is what we commonly refer TO as
soft coal Now. Willie. let us see II
you can form a sentence containing
the words anthracite and bituminous. !"
Willie thought the matter over for a
minute and then said:
Here's one: This morning before
pa started downtown ma wanted 50 for
groceries and things. and she tried t.
get IT by saying bituminous words. but
pa gave her an anthracite look, and
when he disappeared around the corner
she was weeping bituninously.'

A Metaphor With a History.

To know hawk from hernshaw"
is a metaphor with a curious history
1t is a comparison drawn from fall
cOnry. ''Hernshaw'' is a corruption
of "heronshaw," or young heron, bird
which was a common prey OF the fall
cons. To know a hawk from a hern-
shaw is therefore to be able to dis
tinguish the falcon from its prey. A
further colloquial corruption crept into
the phrase-''to know a hawk from a
handsaw," a form used by Hamlet in
one place. Possibly the distinction be-
tween a hawk and a hernshaw was
found not to be strong enough for the
purposes OF the proyerb-Mancheste
Guardian.

CELEBRATE LAYING or CABLE
Fifty Years Ago Cyrus w. Field
Completed Great Work.

competed Great MOrk.
NEW YORK. Aug. To-day is
notable anniversary in the history
of the progress of inventive genius.
since It was just so years ago that
the first Atlantic cable flashed its
first message under the seas and
welded the new world to the old.
Queen Victoria sent the arst mes
sage to President Buchanan, and on
the following days the entire country
celebrated. While this cable did not
long remain in operation. 1t demon
strated the feasibility of the scheme
which had, in the years preceding,
been denounced as a foolhardy pro-
jeet. Cyrus W. Field was the pro-
moter of the Atlantic cable, and it's
final successful installation was atrib-
uted to his genius and perseverance.
The semi-centenniai anniversary of
the linking of the two continents by
telegraph has not passed unnoticed
in New York, although there has
been no extensive celebration. The
wireless telegraph and other wonders
of the last decade have somewhat
furnished the fame of the cable sys-
tenn, considered as the supreme test
of mans inventive genius, as 1t was
considered so years ago.
The period from August 5, when
the cable was landed, to the last of
August. 1858, was one of rejoicing
in New York. Festivities of all kinds
were INDUCED in by the people of
the city, and the sending OF the first
message was declared to be the great
est event of the century.
One of the features of the celebra-
ton was a great procession, headed
by the firemen and the police, and in
Guiding eleven hundred laborers and
500 carts from the Park and the
Croton reservoir, then in process of
construction, all led by Messrs. Ohm
stead, Waring, Miller and Grant.
Altogether, the procession was three
miles in length, and was properly re-
viewed at the City Hall by Mayor
Tiemann. At it passed the Manhat-
tan hotel, a Waldorf-Astoria of the
day, its members read this sign:
