JUVENILE HIGH FINANCE

A pupil in one Of the well known
boys schools, being short of pocket
money, conceived a means of re-
plenishiug his fund by the follow
ing plan:
He wrote to a jewelry house in
New York where he had establish
ed credit, asking that silver
cigarette case selling at $25 be sent
to him on approval. Upon its re-
celpt he arranged a lottery among
his chums at the school and offered
for sale 100 chances at Is cents
each. He sold all the chances for a
total of $25.
The boy who held the successful
number that won the silver case
happened to be one who did not
use cigarettes and therefore the
manager of the affair offered to buy
the case for So. The winner &C.
:epied the offer, as he thereby
made profit of $4.75 cash instead
of having an article of no use to
him whereas the promoter of the
deal had $40 left.
The promoter now returned the
cigarette case to the jeweler and
asked that it be credited to his &C
count. This being a frequent &C.
curence nothing was thought Of the
return of the article.
by this scheme the pockets of the
Young promoter were replenished
by $50, the other boys and enjoyed
their little game of chance and
were perfectly satisfied with the
operation and the business house
was likewise satisfied. Ye!. some
people who have neard of the trans
action are asking. is the young

GOOD WILL SPIRIT

Some poor misguided men spend
most of their lives in trying to
create class distinctions between
their fellow-men, in the foolish
belief that they are working in the
interest of humanity, says the Com :
mercial News. There could be no
greater folly. especially in this land
of opportunity. There are many
evils to be cured or at least MIMI
smized but this much desired result
can never be brought about by ar
raging one class of the community
against the other. We are born
free and equal in this country,
even if we do not remain 90. and
each man had his chance, regard
less of creed, color, nationality or
previous condition Of servitude'
Amid such environment is reason
able to look for the growth Of good
will among men.

BRIDGES NEED ATTENTION

Four teams loaded with Bullion
ore, got in this afternoon and an
other with ID tons will get in this
evening. These ale the first teams
to get in this week. The delay is
caused by the breaking down of a
bridge over ravine near the Phil
lips ranch last Sunday. 1t is re-
ported that there are several
bridges on this road that are in
bad condition and liable to break
down with the heavy loads being
hauled over them. These bridges
should be looked after by the road
supervisor before the county is
sued for damages by the teamsters
and put to heavy costs. There are
now 100 horses on the road haul
ing Bullion ore and more will soon
be at the same work.

the first sign of storm cloud
sweeping down the Hudson. On
that rests his wnole job for should
a thunderstorm catch him mapping
it would mean q serious strain on
the leading electric light and pow
er company.
In no other city but New York
do, conditions make for such a contin
gency. Owing to the compact con-
structioD of the huge blocks of
downtown skyscrapers an enormous
amount of electric light is sudden
ly demanded whenever the sky be-
comes darkened. Thousands of
bulbs are simultaneously switched
on. At niRhtfall this need for light
is easily calculated, but no certain
provision can be made against the
sudden overshadow of storm
cloud other than by stationing a
lookout man on the top of a sky
scraper. Consequently when ,he sees
cloud sweeping down the Hudson
or advancing from any other d.
rection it is his business to watch
his approach carefully.
Therein he must use a bit of
judgment. If it is likely to sweep
clear Of the city he need not bother
about it. But should he reckon it
will pass over Manhattan it is his
business to telephone the chief
power station a warning that a
storm is coming. At once a red
light CLOVIS in the engine room,
and the stokars hustle to shovel
coal into the furnaces. Presently
the huge generators revolve at
greater speed to supply the emer-
gency demand for electricity. Thus
when the thousands of lights are
switched on downtown few are
likely to guess how the sudden call
for light has been met.
Meanwhile the cloud watcher is
in no fear that a mechanical device
will deprive him of his job, for
the weather instrument that can
record just the direction a cloud
will take in sweeping on toward

A FAMILY IN DIRE DISTRESS

One of the saddest cases Of dis.
tress that We have had in this COM
muuity for years was brought to
our attention this morning and we
give these facts in order that the
charitably inclined may have op-
portunity to give Of their bounty
to really charitable cause, and
relieve the distress of a sick mother
and seven poverty stricken and
homeless children.
In an old wagon with ii couple of
poor horses, the family consisting
of father and mother and seven
little Children arrived from the
East last night and pitched their
miserable little tent in the snow
west of the base ball park. A jack
rabbit which the father had kill
ed was the only food they had and
they were all poorly clothed to face
the bitter cold of last night.
This morning one of the little
girls went tc the Jas. Russell ranch
to exchange a triuket for some
bread and the distressed condition
Of the family was made known.
Their immediate wants were re.
lieved, and a supply of good whole
some food was furnished/the
sufficient for a couple of days.
There is still need, however, of
cloaks, bedding, overshoes, cloth
ing and an additional supply Of
food. The good ladies of the Wo-
mans Guild are today at work pro-
viding these, and we have no doubt
that before nightfall the family
will be better provided for than
they have been for weeks.
From the father we learned that
the family home at Evanston, Mon
tana, was burned 10 the ground
several months ago and everything
they possessed was lost but two
horses. They Immediately set out
for Reno, where help vas promised,
but on account of sickness of the
mother, and the further fact that
the father hal to work along the
way for food to keep souls and
bodies together, winter has over
taken them.
If the Guild Ladies approach
YOU give what you can and with a
Christmas spirit. With bitter cold
biting their little bodies and with
hunger gnawing at their vitals
what Christmas it will he for
these children when they are filled
and warmly clad. Truly they will
know there is Santa Claus who
loves them and the givers will be
happier too.
''In as much as we have given
unto one of the least of these thy
bTethern, We have given unto me-"
These words were spoken to US by
the lowly .Nazarene whose birth
the whole christian world will to-
morrow celebrate.
Here is opportunity. Let US give.
Since the above was put into type
the Ladies of the Guild, true to our
prediction, have comfortably hous-
ed the family referred to. The
children will sleep comfortably to-
night and in the morning will Is AXE
to find that Santa Claus did not
forget them.
