"A New idea of Contempt

The filming of the Helena
Independent for contempt
for the publishing of a story
which might have influenced
the court and jury in decid-
ing a case will undoubtedly
come as somewhat of a nov
city, under the circumstances,
to most newspaper men. The
Helena paper published a
story of a former conviction
on a similar charge of a man
on trial before the federal
court. The information was
given by a former Prosecut-
ing attorney from another
state where the offense wa
alleged to Be committed. No
attempt was made to deny
the authenticity of the arti.
Gle, the effect which it would
have in deciding the case be-
ing the only issue. While
the court was undoubtedly
within its rights, it woulo
seem that the Independent
had intended doing a rea
service in securing justice
The previous record of a de.
PENDANT charged with a n !,

after the case had gone to
the jury. In any event. the
Independent will undoubted-
ly have the sympathy of most
of the newspaper fraternity.

It is hinted that the promoters of the Aksala Carnival have dev1- sed very clever missing word contest which will be published in a day or so. It is stated that this will take tho form of an "immu- nifty" ticket admitting the holder to all the carnival joys without hav- ing to pay a cent. All kinds of clever devices looking to tho enter. tainment's success have becn con- sidered and there's going to be . high old tine by all accounts.

Seasonable gifts in choicest varie. ty at MUELLERS,


 The Two Hundred Dollar Mystery is still unsolved. Marshal Jordan stated to this paper that when our informants rung in federal officials in the story they got hold of the wrong actors, and ne said that he was ready to leave town if he or any of his staff had anything to do with it. He said he didn't get a fair shake in the matter and he asked the Industrial Worker to look it up. This dope is getting deep. When the Industrial Worker sought information from one of those con- nected with the "certifcate", he rather baked at giving out any in. formation because he stated they were looking for the Russian, and later on in day or so, fellow coun. tryman of the principal actor told the Worker the story as published, no names being mentioned. Our in dormant, and not one of them but several, all workingmen, stated that the earlier part of the drama was staged in a gambling den, and that therein was the settlement effected, while the official imprima- tur was not given to the settlement it is still insisted that outside their actions wholly, the reason why it was settled was on account of the gamblers part in the play

 The town is quiet although things are beginning to look reasonable. Last week the merchants were kick ing about bad business, but on Saturday last things began to boom up and they admitted that it was not so bad. The majority of the miners notwithstanding the Roof Garden and other seductive delights have not yet come to town for the holidays, and it is likely will not do so for several days yet.

 Carl Silenus who left Dime creek on December 14 arrived in Nome yesterday at noon. He says that there is nothing new to report about Dime. When he left they were still mostly prospecting and compara lively few had reached bed rock being still building or starting sink ing. Jens Madsen had encountered some pay and was drifting.
 He himself has sunk three ncles between 26 and 27 below, but had found nothing. With him were Arvid Johnson and John Hanson. John Hanson went to work for Fritz Mebes who bought in on No. 4 with Gawilor and Glorr and they are sinking there. The work of mining was delayed as already reported by others in getting started on account of the absence of supplies and the work of | building cabins etc. Now everything | is in full swing and soon the real value of Dime will be ascertained. Silenus will remain in Nome until after New Year whom he intends to | return during the clear weather. The trip was uneventful, trails were good and it was pleasant travelling.

An Island That Floats

A floating island, 300 feet
across, exists in the heart of the
R o C ky mountains. Henry's
Lake, in Idaho, is situated on
the dome of the continent, in a
depression of the Rockies called
Targee's Pass. 1t has an area
of probably forty square miles,
and all around it rise snow
capped peaks.
In the lake is a floating island.
It has for it's base an immense
underbrush. These roots. ar e
covered with five or six feet of
rich soil.
. The island is much frequented
By campers on fishing and hunt
ing expeditions. The wind blows
it about the lake, and it seldom
remains more than a few hours
in the same place.

Of Year at Something to Please
Hls Small Grandson.

Pictrue a grandfather, aged sew
enty-three, working the greater part
of the year on a composite mechan-
ical toy that will please his little
grandson at Christmas time. That
man is J. G.. Handwerker of No.
866 North Seventh street, Memphis,
tenn. Each winter he evolves some
thing out of the ordinary for Earl
Becker, his ten-year-old grandson.
But the best part of the work is
that it is good for the entire year
and is delight to grown-ups as well
as youths. There now is in opera
ton in his home a mechanical pro-
duction that is the envy of the neigh
borhood children and is visiter by
many adults who marvel at the pa
tu~nce and the precision required to
produce the spectacle. The toy ex-
tends entirely across sixteen-foot
room. 1t represents mountain sur
mounted by a Christmas tree that
reaches to the ceiling. In the fore
ground, scattered over the mountain,
are thirty mechanical figures. A
bucking broncho is trying to throw
its rider, an elephant is beating a
drum, housewife is shown sweep
ing before her electrically lighted
home, and several automobiles are
seen ascending the mountain. A
monkey climbs up and down rope
suspended from a tree and there are
other trained animals. The entire
spectacle is driven by springs, belts
and pulleys.

SAILOR REFUSED A THRONE
Dusky Princess Went With Offer OF
RuIershIp, So He Went Back
to England.

The death has occurred at the age
of ninety-three of Capt. Philip H.
Nichols of Manchester, England,
who had long and adventurous life
on the sea.
A native of Sidmouth, Devon,
Captain Nichols became a sailor
when he was thirteen. For thirty
five years he followed his profession,
and among his ships was one of the
famous "tea clippers" which made
quick passages from London to
Hongkong before steamships became
common.
His strangest adventure was when
he was cruising in the Pacific. At
the Sulu islands he became a favor
lite with the rulers, who conferred
royal honors on him, presented him
with the sword of state and other
regalia and offered to give him an
island for himself if he would settle
there.
But the gallant captain discoy-
cred that in the background was an
alliance with dusky princess. His
affections were already engaged, SO
he rejected the offer and returned to
the sea.-New York Herald.
