RICHES IN HOUSE PLASTER
Ruins Of Abandoned Town In Mon
tana Found to Yield Gold In Pay
ING Quantities.

Shipping plaster from house to q
smelter for the gold, silver, and lead
in it is a new departure In the way
of making money, but that Is what is
being done by Frank Fish.
For about fifteen years Fish has
been working the failing at the old
Gregory mine, near Wickes. The
property is owned by the Helena and
Livingston company. Recently a big
chunk Of plaster fell from the cell
ing of one of the houses. Fish found
it was very heavy, and he had 1t as
sayed. The returns were satisfactory,
and then he obtained from the COM
pany a lease, with the right to snnelt
ell of the plaster In all of the houses
in the town. AS the town has long
since been abandoned and the houses
were going to decay the leases did net
disturb any one.
Fish has already shipped eight tons
of the plaster to the East Helena
smelter, and the returns are said to
be satisfactory to him. The richness
of the plaster Is not surprising.
When Gregory was on the map and
booming camp and houses were
built the sand used was taken from
the tailings. The methods of getting
the values out of the ores were crude
and the tailings were rich This sand
comprises the larger portion Of the
material in the plaster, and now 1t
pays to smelt it.-Helena (Montl

creations are their own visions worked
out in the products of the loom or are
the inspirations of those whose pro-
fession is gown-making is Of little
Importance. The important thing is
the successful effect.
Here Is a model from Gautier of
Paris that shows how those familiar
fabrics. taffeta-and net, are set to the
rhythm of the new modes as words to
music. 1t is In black with the bodice
over white figured net and tunic Of
net finished with a broad band of silk
about the bottom.
This Is the style which has com
manded the most attention for mid
summer The long sleeves of net or
chiffon, are featured in the majority
OF gowns, and tunic of some sort is
everywhere present This dress is
particularly cool looking and particu-
larly comfortable.
The narrow plain skirt of taffeta Is
ankle length and finished at the bot
tom with quilting of silk. There is
Tapped seam in it down the front.

Fossils In PROPULSION.

recent lecture, says the Oldest known
fossils are Is, zoo years old. Wait,
please-it isn't necessary to inquire
too closely into the reasons on which
DR.. Broom bases his belief in this
matter, nor to kick up any dispute
about the question. But it is safe to
say that in every town and COM
munity, there are fossils far from 49,.
0oo,e00 years old. They are persons.
who walk about and hold converse
with their neighbors and are hope
lessly out Of touch with affairs. They
are opposed to everything that savors
Of either newness or action. They
have tired of activity. Yet they per-
sist in hanging around on the out
skirts Of activity. What Is to be done
with them? Oh, the natural way ID
to get huffy and to call them fossils,
boneheads and all that sort of thing.
But there is another way to dispose
of them. Let them have their say.
Then exercise the function of forget
fulness and let the chariot roll on.--

sufficient body and crispness in the

A SUSPICIOUS COMBINATION

A rumor is persistently going the rounds that there is Q certain class oi men throughout Alaska that are trying to organize what is called a "combinatiou" to defeat our pres ent delegate to congress at the coming election. Presumably in ap- preciauon Of his work? The dog bi-Ing tbe hand that feeds him.
 What that combination '-or any body else for that matter-can have against .Wickersham is more than man with only an average intelligence can fathom. Even the men who have always op- posed him freely cOncede that he has done remarkably well for AL aska. Then why be grouchy? sure ly it cannot be only party lines that are objectionable, for why need we be so particular about party lines when we are not even allowed to govern ourselves.
 We Alaskans ought to be con- tent 10 have the bes- man repre- sent Us in congress, be he demo crat. republican, DrogI essive or anything else. President Wilson has uuequiyOcalIy approved every action of the delegate That is. or should be, sufficient evidence that our representative is satis- factory to the administration. When men ignore all these facts and couuive to deIea5 such leaders as Wilson and WickersLam, their motive may be questioned.
 There are men who are in poll tics for what there is in it and not fer the good of the country. They don't give a wbOop whether the country is developed or not so long as they hold offices, or the power to distribute them
 A glance over the situation leads us to believe that the so-caued "combfuatiou" is composed of just such men as that. Fortu- uately, the workingmeu have been "wised up" to the game that only tried and true democrat is eligible for the nomination Of dele gate to congress under this admin iscrariOu. They cannot fool the voters at the next election They are onto the combiuation.-Petcrs- burg Progressive.

Yes, everybody knew they were sweethearts, still when the news spread over the city Saturday even ing that MT Lloyd Meyers and Miss Lyda Mason had been quietly mar ried at the home of the bride s mother, nearly all the friends of the happy contracting parties, were most agreeably surprised
 The wedding ceremony was sol emnized at 6:30 o'clock by Dr. +. W. Gee in the presence of few in- timate friends and relatives of the bride and groom, following which there was merry-makiDg and con gratulations in which the charming little bride was showered with good wishes and felicitations.
 Rev. James A. Mason, the bride father from Wynne, came down for the wedding and the hearts of all present were oyertiowing with good cheer and happiness.
 Everybody loves Miss Lyda" When young MT Lloyd Meyers, of Johnson township, came to Forrest City some three or four years ago to accept position in the postotlice, he found the lovely little lady who is today his bride, already holding an important position with Uncle Sam. A friendship sprang up immediately between the two which soon ripened into love. Miss Lyda was familiar with all the duties in connection with the conduct of the affairs of the postot1ice and she took special pride in giving the handsome young recruit the benefit of her knowledge and ex- perience and, under the influence of the little lady's naturally charming and admirable disposition, young MT Myers soon lost his heart com 1 pletely, and it is small wonder.
 On Saturday morning MT. and Mrs Meyers left on honeymoon trip with relatives and friends of the bride in Jackson, Tenn, returning to their home in this city on Wednesday morning upon receipt of a message that the brides mother Mrs. Mason, was critically i'll.
 The Times feels keen delight in the happiness Of these two, of it's dearest friends, and we join most heartily in the universal senti- ments of good will that go out to them from legions of friends in this city and community for good health and a long life of peace, prosperity and joy
