A RARE ANIMAL.
Miner Makes Discovery That May
Make Him Famous.

1t was Colonel Roosevelt who in
vented the term nature faker'' in Civ
ing expression to his distrust of a
noted naturalist who claimed to have
riade certain discoveries in connection
with animal life which the colonel in
his extensive researches had overlook
ed and therefore refused to accept.
Later when the colonel announced the
discovery of an unknown river III
Brazil an incredulous and unsympa-
thetic public promptly christened 1t
the River of Doubt" and to make
r.atters worse. when the colonel claim
e., to have found a hitherto unknown
bird on the island of Trinidad. the
phrase of his own coinage was
promptly applied to him. This is said
as foreword to the fate that awaits
John w. Fink. manager of the Idaho
& Los Angeles, who seems doomed to
take his place among the" nature
takers" For be it known that Mr..
Fink claims to have discovered a
new species of the squirrel family
1t has the same size, shape and habits
OF the ordinary pine squirrel so COM
mon in the forests of this district, but
it is pure white without blemish
upon its trim and lithesome body, or
graceful, bushy TAIL This specimen
heretofore unknown TO naturalists Mr..
Fink says may be seen any day In
the trees surrounding the Idaho & Los
Angeles cabin industriously skipping
from bough to bough picking pine
cones for the long winter now rapidly
approaching. Fortunately Mr. Fink
is known to be temperate man, 9TH
erwse this story might be regarded
as sufficient basis for an investigation
by the sheriff's Office. As it is the
worst he can expect is to find him
self ELIGIBLE to membership in that
select class known as nature takers.

ROMANCE OF MINING.

The romance of mining, like the
glamor of soldering is rapidly be-
coming a thing of the past, says the
Engineering and Mining Journal On
September IA prohibition was adopted
in the Yukon territory by popular vote
and 1t is noted with some surprise
that the largest majorities in its favor
We're in the mining districts. The dis
appearance of the typical miner of the
old school, as depicted by Bret Harte
and Service, recklessly blowing in his
gold dust in the saloons, dance houses
and gambling dens is doubtless due to
the exhaustion of the placer mines
and the adoption of modern methods
under which the working miners pos
slbilities of sudden enrichment have
vanished.

LUCKY sWEoE.
Company viii Put In a Compressor To
Drive Lonu Crosseut.


The Lucky Swede Mining company
has ordered compressor and the
building to be occupied by II Is now
nearing completion. The compressor
Engagements have been completed for
its delivery at the property. The
Lucky Swede is hardly two and
half miles from the Milwaukee rail-
read For most of this distance the
bed of an old logging railroad is be-
ing utilized as wagon road. and
from this up the hill to the portal Of
the tunnel wide trail has been made
which can easily be converted into
wagon road. 1t will not be difficult to
deliver the compressor over this road.
The compressor will be run by gaso-
line. A crosscut is being run to cut
the vein at Il depth of over 1000 feet,
about rs feet of which has been run
by hand The vein shows strong
iron outcrop which carries values In
both copper and gold. II is inter
sected by a great diabase dixie, and
the vein will be cut at point a short
distance west Of it, Another similar
but smaller dixie cuts the vein several
hundred feet to the east. The first
work on the property was done on the
opposite side of the hin and on
parallel vein, but numerous faults rem
defed II difficult to follow it and led
to starting the present crosscuI
through which it will be possible to
explore both veins at greater depth.

DOUGLAS STOCK IN BUTTE.
Heavy Buying Orders Due to Plans of
Anaconda Company.

The Anaconda Standard of yester
day has this to say of the demand for
Douglas stock in Butte
There has been substantial rise
In the price of Douglas stock in the
past few days. Last week there was
plenty of the stock offered at cents
share. Yesterday the lowest price
at which any was offered was liz
cents and very little to be had at that
price.
Buying orders however, were plen-
tiful and several orders were placed
with brokers for 5000 share lots
1.-THE demand for IL and the advance
IN price are due, 1t is said, to the
plans for vigorous development ana
an increase in the ore shipments by
the Anaconda company under its re-
newal of the six months option.
The development work now being
carried on is showing very Iare
bodies Of ore running high in zinc
The first shipments of ore have Just
been made and the Anaconda company
Will increase these steadily to supply
the new zinc refinery at Great Falls,
Under the option the Anaconda
company pays a royalty of $S a ton
ON the ore 1t takes out and the pros
poets are good for a steady Increase
IN the stock value to the S0-cent point
under which the option was taken bv
the Anaconda company.
Several hundred tons of ore have
been taken from the upper tunnel
workings and are ready for shipment

HELPING THE PRESIDENT.
John CheerfuIly Backed Mckinley In a
Diplomatic Crisis.

At the time of the Boxer rebellion
President Mckinley vas taking a
needed rest at his home in Canton. ..
The long distance telephone was STU
ated between two windows running TO
the floor of the Under one OF
them. projecting from the foundation
of the house. was a faucet of water to
the lawn. One morning the president
was called to the long distance tele-
phone by Secretaries Hay and Root.
A message had been received III WASH
ington from the czar of all the Russias
and the German emperor. 1t request
ed that the president of the United
States should place the American sol
diers under the command of Count
Waldersee. the German general, in or
der to insure harmony of action on the
part of the allied armies.
There was some paving going on In
the street opposite the house, n as
the day was warm the workmen be-
came thirsty, so one of their number
was sent for water. While the chief
executive was consulting with his Sec
retaries, concerning this important mat
ter over the telephone, John walked
up, hung his pail on the faucet and
turned on the water. The water run
ming into the pail made a great deal
of noise and disturbed the president,
the windows being open. He asked
his secretaries to wait a moment, n
then, leaning forward and looking out
of the window, said:
John, that water running in the pail
makes a very disturbing noise. and l
am busy talking over the long distance
telephone. Please turn it off for a few
moments"
"All right, MAJOR" replied John. and
turning off the water he filed his pipe
and lighted it, and then, sitting down
with his back to the house. listened to
the conversation which the president
was carrying on.
Here was the ruler of a hundred mil
lions of people engaged in the transac-
ton of most important and serious
public business. and there was a COM
mon laborer intruding himself into the
transaction, but Mckinley was not i'm
patient, nor did be resent this inter-
ference. He dictated to his secretaries
over the telephone the reply, consent
ing that the American troops should be
placed under the command Of the Ger
general ON the condition that this
government at any time reserved the
to revoke the permission, provid-
ed the policy of the army so command
ed ran in any way counter to the ideas
Of the United States.
Having dictated this important dis
patch. the president hung up the re-
ceiver.
John" he said, II am through now,
and you can turn on the water again"
John did so and then, leaning on the
sill, said:
major, l hope you are going to set
tie that Chinese question all right. You
don't need to be too dern yielding, for
all of us boys are behind you."-New
York Times.
