BUTTE, MONT, UP
AGAINST A STRIKE

Butte, Mont, Sept. 24.-More than
a thousand striking miners, many
heavily armed, besieged the Cagnon
Mine this evening with the inten-
ton Of attacking the miners when
they came to the surface. They kept
the men in the mine for hours.
Finally, late tonight, the beleag-
.uered workmen were released by a
large posse after lively fighting.
Armed guards succeeded in keeping
the strikers back In the mouth of. the
mine or they likely would have de-
scended into it in an effort to at
tack those who refused to strike.

DEMOCRACY IS LEFT
WITHOUT A LEADER

St. Paul, Sept. Ex-Governor john
sons death leaves the democratic
party without a leader in the north
west who is of presidential caliber,
according to Gov. John Burke, of
North Dakota, who was an honor
ary pallbearer at the funeral. Gov.
Burke said that Johnson, had he liv-
ed, would have been the most prob
able candidate of the party for the
presidency in 1912.
Governor Burke reached St. PaIi on
the Northern Pacific train about 9:20
O'Clock The train was late and the
governor had to push his way
through the crowded streets to reach
the capitol in time to take his place
in the funeral procession. Eo &C
companied the train to st. Peter.
Governor Johnson undoubtedly
was the leader in the northwest
said Governor Burke, "and there is
at present no one who can take his
place. His qualities were such as
would fit him to represent the peo-
pie of the nation and I know of no
individual who can attract all fol-
lowers of the party as could he.
"He would, in all probability, have
been the candidate Of the party for
the presidency at the next election
and it is impossible to tell Just what
effect his death will have"

popular mind this trio Of fates are
supposed to be three old and wrinkled
women whose habitation is q noun

to a house where new baby has

Globe.
When they are expected all furni-
ture is set aside so that their aged
and tottering feet may not be him

of honey cakes. bread and wine are
placed ready for these important
though invisible guests. Money, too,
is placed for them as a bride to get
their favor for the baby, SO that his
future may be one long. sweet song,
the superstition being that all things
good and bad are in the giving OF the
fates.
On no account must the child's
beauty be alluded to when the Moral
are present, as this will certainly make.
its good looks disappear. Marks on
baby's skin are looked upon as sent by
these harbingers of veal or woe.
Ill luck is supposed to be the lot OF
the children who cut their upper teeth
first. There are one or two African
tribes who so firmly believe this that
they are said to kill all babies but
those whose lower teeth appear first.

continent see all the signs Of bad for

oriuin Of Seals.

: The origin of seals is lost In the
shades of antiquity. In Assyrian ana
Babylonian ruins seals still are found,
and it is certain that their use passed
from those countries to Greece ana
Rome, to ALL European countries ana
from England to America. Originally
they were set in rings. The earliest
references to them in Biblical history
is found in Genesis xxxviii, where II
Is recorded that, pending certain nego-
tiations between Judah and lamar.
the widow Of his son, lamar demand
ed a pledge and Judah gave her his
signet and other belongings. And
when Ahab, king Of Israel, tried to-
buy Naboth's vineyard and couldn't
his wife Jezebel "wrote letters In
Ahab's name and sealed them with his
SEAL" In the Book of Esther, chapter
viii, it is written that King Ahasuerus
said to Esther and .Mordecai, write
We also for the Jews, as it liketh you.
in the kings name and seal it with the
kings ring, for the writing which Is
written in the kings name and sealed
with his ring may no man reverse"
Seals doubtless were used long be-
fore the stirring events described In
the quoted chapter Of Genesis, but no
one took the trouble to write about
them. From the time of jeremiah to
William the Conqueror the pen was
practically unknown to king, noble or
peasant, so the seal was absolutely
necessary.-Kansas City Star.
