MONTANA FEELS
LOSS re. YOUNG

Educational circles Of the state OF
Montana are just beginning to feel the
loss OF R. G. Young, whose death oc-
Cured recently at Los Angeles, where
he had gone in the interest OF his
health Mr.. Young, who was at the head
of the Rock Island schools from 1896 TO
1900, was prominent as a speaker and
instructor at Institutes and teachers
conventions, and his worth was rec
ognized all over the state. With the
time approaching for the annual in
stitutes preceding the fall term, his
loss is particularly felt Regarding
him the Butte Inter Mountain says:
For many years he has been identi-
fed with the progress and advance
ment of education. for some time as
head of the schools at Rock Island,
H., later at Waterloo, Iowa. He came
later to Helena, where he was super
intendent. Coming 10 Butte from Hell
ena IL years ago. he was elected by
the board OF trustees as superintend-
ent Of schools. During the time Of his
regime here the schools of Butte made
rapid strides and the high school Of
this city was among the best in the
country, accredited in most OF the lead
ing colleges and universities Of the
United States. Two years ago he re-
signed this position 10 reside on his
ranch near Victor, in the beautiful Bit
ter Root valley.
He was often heard to tell after leav-
ing the city that his residence In his
pretty valley home was the greatest
enjoyment of his life. freed as he was
from the responsibilities and cares of
school duties. and it was pathetic that
his passing should come when all that
was brightest and best was in pros
pect
His devoted wife was always with
him, often accompanying him on his
! trips about the state, where he went
as institute instructor, both while here
and after leaving Butte. The state re-
allied the educational worth of the
man and no institute was considered a
success unless its list of instructors
included his name. Among the teach
ers OF Butte he was universally liked
| and admired, not only for his high edu-
| catonal ideals, but for his genuine
fairness and impartial treatment of
the corps at work with him. Brains,
merit and adaptability counted for
more with him than did pull or poll
tics, and it was due to this that friction
among the members of a body of in
! StruCtOrS that grew each wear durinp
his regime was almost unknown"

missioner az Mayor.

-Four property owners along the
north half block between Nineteenth
and Twentieth streets on Second ave-
nue. appeared before the municipal
commission yesterday afternoon to
ask that they be granted permission
20 lay sewer and water lines TO the
rear Of their property instead of
fronting their property as is specified
in the Improvement ordinance OF Sec
ond avenue, now in the hands OF the
contractors. They we're informed by
the commission. that unless the con-
tractors themselves will agree TO
drop out the water improvements
along that portion OF the thorough
fare, # will hardly be possible for the
commission to accommodate them in
as much as It would necessitate the
vacation OF all procedure that has
been made thus far.
SOLUTION - PRIVATE SEWER.
Heretofore the property involved
has been cared for by a private sew
or system which runs along the prop
erty north OF the buildings. II has
come 10 be inadequate because OF its
small size and a lot OF trouble has
come 10 the owners Of the buildings
on that account. Cellars have been
filled with water and many attempted
repairs have been made. The prop
erty owners desire TO lay the sewer
along the alley line for another rea.
son. Second avenue, between the
points in question, consists largely of
rock and the excavation will be expen-
sive and difficult And then, It is
thought that the sewer TO the rear OF
the property viii complete its func.

other system. What will be done with
the matter. unless the alley sewer is
laid by private contract. is a question,

PHILIPPINE SAVAGES.
The Uneouth Tineians Are Fond of

The Uncouth Tinqians Are Fond of
Ornaments and Gay Colors.
There are many strange, uncivilized
people among the Asianc Americans
of the Philippine Islands.
The Tingians are q very uncouth
tribe of savages. Their head women
have their arms almost completely
covered with strings Of beads, wound
so as to form beautiful and striking
designs. A long, heavy string of beads
IS also twisted around the hair and
hangs down the back like a braid. The
skirt Of these head women Is white,
with blue border, and the waist is Of
light yellow. They smoke pipes Of
solid silver. ornamented with bangles,
in the bowls OF which pieces Of cigar
are inserted.
The typical young Tingian chieftain
wears a stiI collar Of beads and a gay
" colored calico shirt, over which is q
sort of scarf trimmed with many sill
yer coins. The members OF this tribe
are very fond Of silver. They make a
large number Of finger rings from
silver coins, and each man usually has
from ave TO ten Of these rings about
his person, but not necessarily on his
fingers.
The Tngians are fond Of a peculiar
dance. The music is produced by beat
ing with the palms OF the hands on
-gansas" or tomtoms. The dancers, q
man and q women, with arms out
stretched. circle about each other In &
spiral. the man pursuing the woman
with a quick. jerky step. AS they ap
preach the center Of the spiral he sud
denly swoops upon her, when she al

MEMBERSHIP WAR
BRINGING RESULTS

The Commercial club membership
committee held largely attended ses-
sion yesterday noon at which the cam
paien for an enrolment of 1000 by
June ! was discussed enthusiastically.
Reports on the progress OF the cam
paign proved that the activities of the
three armies now hustling for recruits
have resulted in great success. Those
present were even more enthusiastic
in their support of the move than at
its inception and there is promise that
each closing day OF the membership
war Will bring greater results than its
predecessor.
Under the action taken by the club
at the beginning of the campaign, each
new recruit secured was TO be allowed
entrance at the decreased fee and dues
until the total enrolment should reach
1900, or until June |. The campaign
has bccn carried on so epergetically
as TO give promise of reaching the
1900 mark within the next two weeks
As "a result. members are now dis
cussing the question as TO whether those
who come into the club before June
and after the 1900 mark has been
reached, will bo allowed the reduced
fee and dues.
The second skirmish of the cam
paign will close Saturday night, when
the contending armies expect TO make
great showing. Each commsndant
declares his regiment has won tho tro.
ply for the most members secured. One
more skirmish will end the campaign.
The question referred to in the fore.
going will be submitted for official de-
cision 10 the board of governors at its
next meeting.
