A Democratic Legislature.

HELENA, Nov. From nearly com.
plete returns from the 81 counties In
the state received by the democratic
state committse in this city, the party
will have q clear majority in the legis.
lative assembly. OF representatives
and senator's chosen at the election
Tuesday, 60 are placed in the demo.
cratic column. The remaining men,
bers elected ire divided up between
the republicans and the bull moose
party. The bull moose party Jared
best In Yellowstone county, where II
elected the entire delegation of five to
the Legislature.
The number of new senators chosen
at the election is II. OF this number
the returns received show that the
democrats have elected IL and the
republicans and bull moose one each.
The number Of democratic represen-
tatives known to be elected 10 40, which
gives the democrats q clear majority
In both branches of the legislature.
The probability is that this majority
will be increased when the returns
from all the counties are complete.
The legisl alive assembly consists OF
ITO members, 81 Of these are senators
and the remainder, 70 are representa-.
tives.

A DYED BEARD.
Il Probably Changed the History Of the

Il Probably Changed the History Of the
Whole Human Race.
The most striking case in history of
the Importance of triles is furnished
by the story Of Musa. the leader Of
the Moslem host which won from
C%hristendom in three and a half years
dominions which it took the soldiers of
the cross twenty generations to win
back. He had a red beard. This was
q trife.
Musa, though a very great general,
was a very vain man, and he dyed his
beard black. This was another trife.
One Of his captains chafed him on the
subject, and Musa forthwith had him
stripped and scourged. For this, at
the very height Of his conQuering CO.
reer, Musa was recalled by the caliph
and disgraced. This made 1t impossi-
BILE for him to command the Moslem
army at the battle Of Tours, on the is
sue Of which, as all historians agree,
the destinies Of Europe and perhaps Of
the whole human c depended.
1t Is almost certain that II the genius
Of Musa had replaced the incompetence
Of the half dozen tribal leaders whose
dissensions made victory impossible
the forces Of Islam would have Joined
hands from the west to the east and
Enclosed Europe in their grasp.-Lon'

How Grant Cured a Badly Scared Staff
Officer.

How Grant Cured a Badly Scared Staff
Officer.
One of General Grii:tS newly ap-
pointed staff officers bad never been ia
any serious engagement. Gut uii.ius;
the first day that he reported TO Grant
he was placed under Il fire Of the hot
test and most severe kind. <he scream
ing of the balls, the roaring Of the Cal!
non and the sharp crack and rattle Of
the musketry thoroughly deinoral!zed
him. He became absolutely sick and
paralyzed with fear. He was so weak
from nervous excitement that he los:
physical control over himself.
General Grant came up at the very
climax Of his fright, and, noticing his
pale face, his blue lips and chattering
teeth. he said: captain. you are fright
ened. That is natural enough. You
will get over 1t. Suppose" continued
Grant, II should come to you with a
hat containing ninety-nine white beans
and one black one and l should ask
you to thrust your hand into the hat at
q venture and pick out the black bean.
Do you think your chance Of getting
that black bean would be very good?
Well, your chance for being hit under
this fire is no greater than your chance
for drawing the black beam"
This officer at ono took heart, and
from then on he never showed the
slightest sign Of fear.-Life.

Great In His Line.

Robert Barr once showed a por-
trait Of Mark Twain to a silk merchant
Of Lyons. "Tell me who that u.s." Mr..
Barr said. The merchant gazed at the
portrait and answered, II should say
he was a statesman" "Supposing you
wrong In that, what would be your
next guess?" asked Mr.. Barr. IF he
Is not a maker of history he Is perhaps
a writer Of tia great historian, prob
ably. OF course it is impossible for me
to guess accurately except by accident,
but l use the adjective great because
I am convinced this man Is great in his
line, whatever it Is. If he makes silk
he makes the best" Mr.. Barr told the
French merchant who the portrait rep
resented and said, "You have summed
him up in your last sentence."-London
