CONGRESS HAS ADJOURNED
Montana Members Dig Good Work
For Their Constituents.


WASHINGTON, June 25.-President
Taft walked out OF the capitol at II
O'Clock tonight, smiling. The second
session Of the sixty.6rst congress had
just adjourned and he had signed
practically all matters of legislation
that had been placed before him. He
received congratulations from his cab
met and from members of both branch.
es of congress on the successful pas
sage of most OF his pet measures.
Each house of congress marked its
closing hours by voting for an investi-
CATION Of the McMurray Indian con.
tracts. Instead of the usual scene of
comparatively undigniied relaxation
from the business of legislation, both
houses devoted exceedingly serious at.
tention to the charges of bribery at.
tempted, and other forms of improper
influence made in the sen ate yesterday
by Senator Gore OF Oklahoma and
subsequently, in the house by Repre-
sentative Murphy of Missouri.
When congress adjourned tonight i,
vas with q creditable record Of
achievement in the passing of meas.
ures of interest to Montana, obtained
by Montana's delegs tes here. One o.
the most important measures was Sen
ator Carter's bill creating Glacier na
tional park. with an appropriation fol
its improvement. Senator Dixon OBJ
tanned appropriations for the conclu'
sion of the opening of the Flatheai
reserv alton, and his Crow bill Is up
on the house calendar. Representa-
tive Pray pushed through the house
an appropriation of $l0O, 900 for tn
survey of Montana's public lands, 81
appropriation OF $3.50, 900 for Missouri
river improvements, $751; 600 for tn
public building at Miles City and SIS,
600 for q site at Kalispell.
Senator Dixon's Havre land ofic
bill was passed and he obtained in
creased appropriations for the Grea
Falls and Missoula public buildings
Senator Carter's bills appropriately
$4,000 each for public buildings q

he AMUSED THE U B
Then the Young Lions Took . Turn At
Amusing Him.

Amusing Him.
A negro attached to an African hunt
ing party met with a curious adven-
ture, says an English paper. Wander
ing one day from camp, he surprised
two lion cubs at play and thoughtless-
" commenced to amuse them. He was
only too successful. The big cubs gam
boiled fearlessly about him and to his
dismay refused to desist when be
wished to leave them.
Realizing the danger to which he
would be exposed should the mother
appear, he began to run, but the cubs
refused to be shaken OF and in their
play scratched his legs in fearful
fashion.
That the creatures were thoroughly
enjoying themselves was evident from
their manifestations Of delight, and
before long their unusual cries brought
q noness leaping to the spot.
Trembling in every limb, the negro
faced the growing animal, while the
cubs continued to jump up at him,
eager for further caresses. The en-
ragged lioness moved round uneasily
in a circle, man and beast keeping
their eyes steadily on each other. Sew
eral times the lioness crouched to
spring, but the man, from fear, never
shifted his gaze.
At length, after what seemed an age,
when the negro was ready to drop
from exhaustion, the animal suddenly
called her cubs away and disappeared
into the surrounding scrub.

THE WHEAT HARVEST.

The Old-time resident of Montana
received another surprise the other
day. when eastern market reports an-
nounced that spectators we're looking
to the Montana wheat crop to make
good part of the shortage reported
from other localities. Montana now
appears upon the wheat market map
a. one of the future sources of supply
of q cereal product for which there 10
q world wide demand, and recent de-.
velopments In modern systems Of agri-
culture indicate that Montana will oc-
cupy ~ important position among the
states constituting the wheat belt.
The wheat harvest promises in the
course Of q few years to become an an.
nual event that will mean q large rev.
enue for residents of Montana. Two
years ago, the United States depart
ment OF agriculture credited Montana
with a wheat crop Of about four mil.
lion bushels, but this amount was ex-
ceeded last year by one county alone.
With the vast area ad spted to wheat
raising on irrigated land and on the
bench lands, the Montana wheat crops
of the future will be a recognized fac.
tor in the market.
The wheat crop is the most atile
of all cereals grown by the farmer
both in the matter OF geographical
range and of Wheat is har-
vested within a few hundred miles of
the Arctic circle, and also near the
equator in Southern Brazil. Every
month in the entire year is a harvest
month for this king Of foodstutfs. In
January, Australia, New Zealand,
Chilli and Argentine Republic have
their harvests. In February, March
and April, Egypt, India, Persia, Mex.
leo and other countries similarly To-
Gated have their harvest season.
From that time on to September the
bulk Of the worlds crop 10 gathered
In November, Peru and South Africa
and in December, Burma and New

THE r OF CONGRESS.

Reference to the work of congress
q the session that has just closed will
sustain the claim that it has redeemed
most OF the promises made by the
party in control. Contrary 70 general
expectation, President Taft has used
persuasive methods to such good effect
that the measures TO which he attached
the greatest importance received favor
able consideration in congress. and
the relations between the executive
and lei islative departments Of the gov
eminent have been cordial ct oil times.
A comparison between the Roosevelt
and Taft methods Of securing desired
legislation 10 decidedly In favor OF the
lstter-so far ss results are concerned.
According to . brief summary Of the
legislation enacted at the recent ses'
sion, the more important enactments
relate to the following subjects:
Revision Of the railroad laws, in
GLIDING the creation Of a commerce
court.
Admitting Arizona and New Mexico
as separate states.
Authorizing the establishment Of
postal savings banks.
Giving to the president unlimited
authority to withdraw public lands
for conservation purposes.
Providing for publicity Of campaign
contributions.
Authorizing the issuance Of $40, 0O0,'
600 in certificates Of Indebtedness to
complete reclamation projects.
Creating q bureau Of mines.
Creating Glacier park.
Providing an appropriation Of $780,
600 for the tariff board.
Looking to the suppression Of the
white slave tarfic.
Creating q commission to consider
economies In the administra alton of the
federal government.
Authorizing the entry OF surface
coal lands.
Legislation that ultimately is expect
ed to give prohibition to the Hawai-
an islands.
That is q pretty good record OF worl
accomplished. In q few instances con
gress failed to enact Legislation re
commended by the president, but all
reforms cannot be expected to be &C.
cured at once, and many of these will
be on the calendar for future consider
alton.

FIRE HORSES ON MAD
 RUN WITHOUT DRIVER
Chemical Wagon Steeds Break Away
 When Alarm Sounds.

Apparently just because some one alarm of fire was teIephoned in last evening and the fire department had another unnecessary canter. The word came in that a fire was in progress in the Redlight district and box A was immediately sounded. The apparatus was quickly on the scene, but found no need for their services.
 In responding to the alarm the horses attached to the chemical wag on became impatient and started out of the house without waiting for the formal lowering of the chain guard at the front doors The driver had not yet ascended his seat and the leeds dashed through the chain as though it were so much twiae and were soon upon a mad gallop along Jefferson street in direction directly opposite from that in which the blaze was supposed to be.
 Nick Osborn, a lad of about IT yeays old was upon the front seat opposite where the driver sits and he caught the lines after the horses had run half a block, but he was unable to do much more than guide the steeds and keep them headed in a straight line.
 Luckily fireman had been able to grab the rear rods as the apparatus left the building and. he managed to climb over the wagon and gain pos session of the lines and soon brought the animals about. The run was made back to the engine house and the regular driver was picked up and the apparatus proceeded in the direc- ton of the Redlight.
 There were hundreds of people on

Is the Tuberculosis Cruz
 Sade Losing Ground?
Sanitaria Seemingly Fail to Check the Terrible White Plaque
 Enormous Sums Spent.

The recent report of the Penna State Board of Health reveals the startling condition that despite all the efforts being made by advocates of fresh air and egg-and gorging treatments, the number of news cases has not been noticeably decreased.
 This report applies to Sanitarium treatment It does not take into ac- count the tubercular cases cured by Eckman's Alterative-When the disease was in an advanced as well as early state. The Sanitarium treatment has only benefited temporarily. while Eek mans Alterative has cured.
 Write to any sanitarium and ask them to refer you to even five or ten cured cases-not those temporarily benefited; but people who had tuber- culosis and are today in perfect health. At the same time write to the Eckman Laboratory, 9th & Market Sts, Phila, and ask them to refer you to Clergy men. Priests. men and women who took Ecknan'S Alterative and are today well and strong without q trace of tubercu- so by physicians. Some of them took the Alterative II years ago when doctors said they would not live II weeks
 Could anything be fairer to yourself and those who love you and would do anything to restore you to health? If you are skeptical-investigat us, our medicine. our advertised statements. Write, if you will. to those who have sent in affidavitsi and testimonials tell ing how Eckman's Aiterative cured them.
 Eokman's Alterative is good for all Throat and Lung troubles, and is on sale in Phoenix by all Druggists. It can also be obtained at. or procured by your local Druggists. Ask for Booklet of Cured Cases or write for Evidence to the Eckman Laboratory Phila., Pa

BRAZIL, ITS RICHNESS
 AND INDUSTRIES
A New Book Setting Forth Its Politi-
 cal and Industrial Development

Few persons are aware of the extreme richness of the United States of Brazil, the largest and most important of the South American republics. and to sup ply full historical and industrial infor- nation, the government of that country has had prepared d voluminous work in two volumes which is shortly to make its appearance in English.
 In 1908. the Brazilian Minister of Means, Transportation. Industry and Public Works ordered the preparation of this work, and it was accomplished after three years arduous labor under the di- rection of Dr. Vieira Souto. Professor of the Polytechnic School of Rio de Janiero. and at present Director of the Mission of Economic Expansion with offices in Paris, France The work was first published in Portuguese. then trans lated into French and has just been pre- pared afresh in English. It is in two volumes of 1000 pages each. copiously illustrated
 The work describes in detail the ex- traordinary rapidity with which the po- litical and industrial development of the country has gone forward. and in the section devoted to the conquest of the soil, 1t reads like q great TO- nance of adventure The manner in which Brazil has taken hold of and solved her question of public health might serve as lesson to the nations, for she has driven out the yellow fever scourge completely, bringing her nor tality tables down far below those of any European city. The Rio de Janeiro fig ure now standing at 2o7, the European average running to 268
 Within the space of .34 years the pop ulation of Brazil has gone up from some 100000 to over 22oooooo, anincrease of over one hundred per cent. In 1903, her exports were IS5 millions, and four years later had risen to 272 millions. Every phase of industry has gone for ward rapidly. and the great republic with Iso,ooo square miles more territory than. the United States, is coming rap idly to the front among the nations, for her richness of resource is almost be- yond belief The new book will be ready for distribution within few weeks.

the streets at the time when the horses dashed along without guide at the reins and it is little short of miraculous that somebody was not hurt
 This incident only serves to show just what might result upon the occasion of almost any run and it cannot but be that it was pure thoughtlessness upon the part of the miscreant who would send in false alarm upon a night when life and limb were endangered
 The police are sparing no effort to apprehend the culprit. No less than half dozen false alarms have been sent in since the first of ~the year and 1t is probable that should any one be caught sending in fake alarm he will be given a salty dose by the court before which he may be tried.

worse for IT japanese and Chinese are

English have earned the title, ''Phleg-

virtues are due to the method OF brew

In Oriental countries tea is usually
taken without fiavoring. The Russians like
the flavor Of lemon. and the English
use It. also. with sugar-they also use
cream and sugar. but It IS nothing like
the liquid served at the American table
under the name OF tea. AT cur restau-
rants tea Is not only unpalstable. but IN
wholesome, unless one has it made to
order, and even then there Is little surety
that the water was freshly boiled.
It is not national to insist upon freshly
boiled water In the making OF tea. Real
tea-lovers can detect the difference be-
tween it and stale water, however the
