Helena, Mont, Sept. 2s.--Attired
in linen duster, an old black slouch
hat and swinging an electric lantern
at his side, President Taft was locked
in a narrow cage and dropped 1900
feet through midnight blackness into
the depths Of the famous old Leonard
copper mine at Butte. He had the
rare experience OF seeing miners at
work with giant drill in a vein of
oigh.grade ore that sparkled green
with its wealth Of mineral.
When he ascended with whiz, af-
ter half hour under ground the
ple5iutHl, bilhhihS III bhS SialS VI '"S
sun, was cheered to the echo by the
crowd Of curious people gathered at
the hoist. He declared enthusiastic
ally, Il would not have missed it for
the world"
II was the presidents first visit to
the Montana copper district, and be.
tween the smelters at Anaconda and
the mines at Butte he had series of
interesting experiences. Not the least
OF these was a thrilling automobile
ride over the mountains from Butte
to the mouth OF the Leonard mine.
The grades were steep and winding
but the chauffeurs were experinced
men, and while there was apparently
no threat of danger at any stage of
the trip. there was sigh of relief
when Mr.. Taft had once more been
placed safely aboard the Mayflower
for the run to Helena.
Arriving here, he went directly to
the state fair grounds, where, after
viewing a portion of the exhibits, he
made an open-air address and wit
messed a race of cowboys. Returning
to the city, Mr. Taft viewed parade
OF school children.
Leaving here he headed direct for
Spokane, where he is expected today
TO deliver his formal speech on the
subject which holds supreme interest
70 all the west-the conservation OF
the natural resources and the recla-
nation of arid lands.
At Butte the president was present
ed with a full-sized golf club-a
driver-made of copper, silver and
gold, the three metals that have
made the camp famous. On the head
uf the driver the following inscription
was engraved: william Howard
Taft, champion 19O9.1913-and then
some. Butte. Mont, Sept. 81, 1909"
In the course of his speech at
Butte, where he was introduced by
Senator Lee Mantle, the president
said: Il am mighty glad to see you,
and the reason why am mighty glad
to see you is that can not help but
feel, from your kindness and cordial.
ity. that you are glad to see me. |
am deeply pleased at the reception
because OF its nonpartisan character,
and especially feel that | am looking
into the faces of Democrats as well
as Republicans, and that we are all
here without thought OF party and
only to give expression to the feeling
OF common interest in our common
country and love for our dear old
flag"

Prettiest ard most poetic of all. A row
of young girls, with a tier of cups on

cision, kneel down. fold their hands and
bow their heads until their forchcnds
almost touch the polished marble floor.
