WHAT'S THE USE2

What's the use in fussing, fussing?
Fussing doesn't help mite
Fussing never brought you sunshine
Or dlspelled the clouds of night!
Fussing never won you friendships,
Never helped you win heart,
1t has only helped to make you
AS failure In the mart!
Keep your face all wreathed in sun
shine,
Let your eyes be filled with song,
Teach the world that life Is gladness,
Joy Is goodness, frowns are wrong, !,
Like the perfume Of the roses
Let your presence blend with aid
To the many who are tramping
On all the human promenade!
Be helper in the battle,
Be cheer to weary feet,
Lead the way from darksome shadows
Where the storm and river meet.
Be ray of sunshine, brother;
Always radiate a glow
That will make the old world better
With the woes and undertow!

new tribe of people never before seen
by the eyes Of white man. This new
tribe of Eskimos, according to Bower.
live on a point In Prince Albert land.
Bower left this port two years ago on
board the ship James Drummond, and
he has spent the Intervening time
wandering about among the E.skimos.
Unlike the usual type at Eskimos the
newly discovered natives, who call
themselves Nunacoties, are very tall
and look like the North American In
dians. The explorer WAS cordially
welcomed by the strange tribesmcn,
and he procured many rich furs from
them. From the town OF the Nunaco-
ties, Bower proceeded further north.
where he discovered immense copper
eye through the bite of spider This
was not the end Of Bowers troubles

Norfolk Va. Sept. 2i.-"This is d

read on the side of the cruiser North
Carolina the last night il lay at an
Choir i'm Hampton roads. The letters
extended tyg3-thirds of the way along
the hull of the cruiser and had been
painted in luminous paint used in
making targets visible at night.
II was small-szed mutiny due to
the fact that for acts Of insgbOrdina-
ton aud violation of ru.es off the
capes in target practice shore leave
had been denied the 500 men aboard.
IL was hard t. trace the cause of the
trouble and the officers decided to
punish all alike. Ii il known that a
number Of sailors are confined In the
brig as result OF the trouble on the
practice grounds at sea
The luminous sign attracted great
attention and a thorough invcStiga-
ton was ordered by the officers. but
as Jet the persons responsible have
not been found. 1t Is reported that
sailors and petty Officers had spent
several of the nights endeavoring to
enforce the order Is allow anyone to

THE SALOON LICENSE.

There is before the city council a
proposition to increase the license of
retail liquor dealers from SIS TO si3I.50
This proposition. we take 1t. is not
made so much with view to increas-
ing the city's revenue as with the idea
or regulating the saloon business of
lions unreasonable when the size of the
city Is considered. The high license
plan has been found to work satisfac-
torily i'm other cities. II has resulted
in closing the dives and giving protec-
ton to the decent saloons: IL would
unauestionably operate this way in
Missoula. The greatest enemy OF the
liquor dealer is within his own ranks.
The keeper OF the dive and the low sa-
loon is the man who brings the whole
business into greater disrepute. Look
ing at the proposition from a business
standpoint. the man who conducts an
orderly bar. where there Is quiet and
decency. should regard the increase I'm
license with favor: he can afford to
pay in the increased license, and II
viii give him protection from the
greggery. There Is no installing the
sentiment against the rough saloon.
and there are too many OF that type in
the city. The increased license will
freeze out many of this class. The de-
cent saloon man can well afford 10
support the proposition To increase the
license fee. II present conditions arr
not checked. there will surely be q
movement for the suppression Of al
saloons. and no man who has studio
the situation doubts that such a move,
ment would DO successful.

IN NEW YORK.

IL YOU hear a rumble and a screech
and a roar from eastward today. do
not be alarmed II will not forebode the
end of the world or the downfall Of
the nation; II will be merely the rever-
beration of the noise Of New York's
celebration of the discovery of the Hud-
son river by the man whose name that
historic stream bears. The celebration
of Robert Fulton's successful essay at
saeam navigation Is coupled with the
Hudson anniversary, and New York
will today make the biggest noise that
she has ever started echoing across the
country. The ceremonies OF today will
cuin!nate in the naval parade, I'm
which there will be more than six hun
bred vessels OF all descriptions from
the monster warships of many nations
to the little motor boats that will have
division OF their own. The guns Of
the warships viii start the noise, and
il will be taken up by the horns and
whistles and sirens of the other craft.
The while. there win be land parades
and New York will do full justice to
the fame Of the two men In whose
honor the celebration is held.

The Jewish population of America.

the observance of yom kippur. the
Day Of Atonement. most important of
all Jewish holidays. The holiday
marks the end of the ten penitentiai
days which began with "Resh Has

ten days are devoted by orthodox Jews
TO prayer and 10 settling their ac-

~ man against man do not receive
divine forgiveness unless attempts
have been made to right these wrongs.
In all the Jewish calendar there is
no occasion which Is so solemn and

Day of Atonement. During the entire
