True To Form.

Col. Roosevelt permits the ia ct
to be known that he will presently
reveal many state secrets in a
series of photographed papers
which he will contribute to one OF
the Magazine.
Or perhaps it is the magazine
which permits this fact to be
known. At any rate, the secret is
out.
1t is not our purpose to suggest
that the publication of a letter
from Emperor of Japan, who was
recently buried with much pomp,
and ceremony, is in questionable
taste, and such an action may per-
pick the Japanese people, whose
good will we have sought in many
ways. Nor does it seem worth
while to call attention to the fact
that Col. Roosevelt Is running true
to form when he describes his own
important contributions to the his
toric achievements OF his time, in
stead of waiting for somebody
else to sing his praises.
However, the monthly magazines
have provided a refuge for many

ASTONISHING DISCOVERY AT THE
BRITISH MUSEUM

We in the Western world have always
been accustomed to think of Chinese art as
correctly represented by the fantastic old
w~illow-patteln plate. But travellers and
students have now made an amazing dis
covery. They have found that, hundreds
and hundreds of years ago, the Chinese had
artists as talented and as inspired as our
grent artists in Europe. Their art, in the
far-away days, seems to have been as noble
and perfect as that of Europe in its loftlest
era. But the Chinese are like the man III
the parable who hid his talent in the ground.
They secrete the treasure.
Little whispers sometimes reached the
outer world of a magic age Of Chinese art,
but it was thought to be only u legend, like
those of Chinese dragons and other fabu-
Ious beliefs. But it is all true, In the
fourth and later centuries, when the Romans
ruled savage, semi, naked Britoms in Wild
England, China had artists whose works
may have equalled anything in the whole
history of art. Some of their treasures still
exist, and by a romance of fortune almost
too good to be true, one of these is liz Lon
don at this moment.
Ten years ago the British Museum, quite

roll of Chinese silk. upon which are painted
nine groups Of figures, and on which ARE
many seals and signatures. The work was
old and beautiful but no one dreamed that
it had any special value. But ten years of
investigation by great scholars has now
brought the amazing news that the paintings
are the work of Ku-K'ai chin, one of the
greatest artists of China's great artistic
epochs. He lived in the fourth century, and
it had always been believed that his work
had persisted, as the work of Apelles, the
immortal artist Of the Greeks, had persisted,
long before Jesus was born.
But the scroll in the British Museum is
the work Of the veritable Ku K'ai-chih. It
illustrates the writings of a great scholar,
set down for the guidance of the ladies of
the Chinese Court, and is a marvel of artis-
tic beauty and excellence. The wonderful
fortune of the British Museum i'll gaining
this work and discovering lis origin was
emphasized by another Happy chance. Japan
sent to the White City, three years ago.
some of her finest craftsmen in the art
of engraving, and the British Museum
employed them to make copies of their pre-
cious gem. The result is that u hundred
copies have been nude, which will be sent
all over the world for the students of other
lands TO see, admire, and wonder 1T. But
gold would not buy the original from it's
new resting place. There it lies, with sixteen
centuries of history upon it, with the sigma
ture of az emperor of nine hdndred years
ago, who caused it to be repaired when it
was seven hundred years old, and with the
signature of another emperor, who, after
another eight hundred years, caused it to
be again repaired and added II sentence
of his own, declaring it undoubtedly to be
the production of the great Ku K'ai-chih-

the mill was not problem. The
denseG-wooded mountain slopes seemed
to offer an inexhaustihle supply OF
lumber. However, many years had not
elapsed before il was seen that the
transportation question was becoming
one Of moment. It was found that the
spring high water could not be de.
pended upon as a means of bringing n
years supply Of logs to the mills.
Here the railroad enters on the scene.
Logging railroads have been built and
the lumberjack now confines himself
to swinging the axe, The railroad does
the rest.
The largest sawmill plant is located
at the mouth of the Big Blaekfoot
river, few miles from the prosperous
and beautiful town of Missoula. The
stream and the valley through which
it winds its way are extremely pietur-
esque. The river heads in the main
range of the Rocky Mountains over 100
miles from its confluence with the He'll
Gate river at Bonner. The mill was
erected in 1885 by A. b. Hammond,
now of San Francisco, and has been in
continuous operation since that time
during the seasons of the year when
a supply of logs could be floated to
the plant. The annual production Of
the mill has ranged from s5,Oo0,00O to
50,000,000 feet per year, and, quite
naturally, all the available timber that
could be transported to the river on
snow, by log chutes or sleighs, has
been logged off, so that eight years
ago it was deemed advisable to go into
the logging railroad business.
