Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone Company r • : AMONG THE MINERS: i Latest News Fro. the Mining Camps of Fergus County end Elsewhere. . mime ma Helena Record: Samuel Hurvitch, of the Little Rockies Exploration com- pany, operating in the Zortman dis- trict, 18 In the city, and announces that it is the expectation to start the $60.000 mill, recently purchased from E. W. King together with a number of promising claims, within a short time. Ore will first be taken from the Alabama claim, and It is the in- tention of the company to build a tram- way from the mine to the mill. St1 soon as this can be completed, actual work will begin. Mr. Hurvitch says the Zortman district never looked bet- ter, and with the Phillips -Whitcomb properties in full blast, he expects to see Chouteau county become the lead- ing gold producer of the state. MIMS The following very interesting arti- cle on :'Trees in a Mining Camp,\ by Matt W. Alderson, the well known Montana reining man, appears in the last issue of the Mining World: The usual rule for making a mining camp is: \First cut down all the trees:. that's what the trees are for.\ It may seem strange that there should be such a rule, and yet, while it is an Unwritten one, there is no other so un- iversally followed. One visits Goldenville, Novia Sco-I tia; Virginia City or Butte, Montana, and exclaims: \What a desolate look- ing place. How came anyone to be attracted here\ And yet, before the natural attractiveness of the places had been destroyed by the ruthless hands of man, these localitle a s were beautiful. And they should be so now. I knew a man who cut down the trees which protected his dwelling, saving perhaps 26 cents a cord over what the same amount of wood would have cast him if cut but a few miles away. ,For a temporary saving of a few dollars. he paid every year for 20 years following twice the amount sav- ed for additional fuel to warm his house. I knew a mine superintendent who was very much surprised when the of- ficers of his company stopped his Cut- ting timber on company ground. The mine was nearly dug out. .of course. fuel was not plentiful' and theice -wtor fine timber on tite•clalms. From his point of view, it should be cut and used. It would be of no value after the mine closed down. He would have gaved his company a few hundred dol- Ta - rs - over - INe Cost of ileeifflne\\ESill wood elsewhere and in making that saving he would have put the company to an expense of thousands of dollars a year thereafter during the life of the mine, for this timber was the one thing that conserved the water supply. The mill was a mile below and had barely water enough for its daily needs. In fact, frequently in some months of the year some of the stamps would have to be hung up because of scarcity -of water. If the timber had been cut down, the mill would have had to be moved farther down the gulch, thus entailing not only cost of moving but additional cost for trans - lionize the ore. I know that a man who would sug- gest that there be a planting of young trees In mining sections to provide neoessary timber for future genera- tions would be laughed at as a silly crank. But it would be a blessing to the country if we could develop a few thousand such cranks who would see the idea carried into effect. Already wood for fuel Is out of the question in many localities, mulls and other necessary timbers must often be shipped hundreds of miles. Must we centime) to act as if the supply was inexhaustible? There have been times when I have thought that every man who cut a tree down on public land should be required to plant two in its stead. There are people who would think the Idea impracticable, but it is not. As a young man, I went to the mountains and helped bring down young ever- green trees to plant in the yard at home. Numbers of persons said: \They will not grow. They will thrive on the mountains but not in the val- ley.\ But most of them lived and are an ornament to the yard in which they were set out 30 years ago. In every tree growing section it is easy to find trees that can be transplanted, and, if the work is done with intelligence and care, the trees will thrive in their new location. In many 'mountain regions the soil and climate are better adapted to tree *toeing than anything else. While most young native trees can be suc- cessfully replanted, a little investiga- tion will result in the finding of those varieties which will make the. more rapid growth and be most profitrble to raise. The price of timber is such In many places at the present as to as- sure one that the growing of trees may be made profitable. But askle from the use of trees for timber and fuel, and as a conservator of the water supply, the growing trees are the finest possible protection as windbreaks around the mine buildings, the corrals, the favored range and the exposed roadway. Then again, from an aesthetic point of view, the adornment of the min- ing claims with growing trees will bring much pleasure into the lives of the people, isolated by the nature of their work from the beauty of the park and gardens of the towns. But the mountain slopes of the mining claims can be adorned a with trees, beautiful to look at and walk under in summer or winter. And these trees shall re- main growing through the years, com- panions to man in his varying moods, a refreshing, a joy and a glora always. Plant trees and beautify again the face of earth, which has been made desolate by their destruction.

Chicago, May 16.—In the most sen- sational opening in the Milton , of the Chicago board of trade, wheat today shot past the dollar mark. Heavyv realizing sales pushed the Price back - Ward somewhat, but at the close the markeL_Was_strong and a accordin‘to tEe majority of speculators, prices will go higher. September has gone up 15 3-4 cents, and in the December option the high- est point of the day was 16 3-4 above the low price of last Monday. It was a certainty that a strong bulge would take place in the wheat market at the opening. Country orders had poured in seemingly in endless streams, and in obedience to them. brokers stood ready to buy millions of bushels at the market. Shorts were In a highly nervous condition and were eager to cover. The result was that. as soon as the gong sounded, there was a terrific jar of voices, all anxious to buy 'and nobody offering to Reit The trade was too big and too broad to be followed with any certainty, and brokers filled orders frequently sev- eral cents away from the point at which they had hoped to buy. The confusion was so great that, for a few minutes but little actual busi- ness was transacted, the brokers fighting and struggling In the effort to get hold of wheat from anybody or at any price. The July option sold, as soon as quiet could be restored out of the con- fusion, anywhere between 93 and 94 cents, which was % to % of a cent nigher than the close of Saturday. September opened at 95 cents to 95 1 a, which was above the closing price of last week. December showed a wider range than either of the other options, and the opening quotations ran at all figures between 96 1 / 2 to 8 cents above the quotations of Satan day. The rush of buying orders seemed to come from almost every city in the United States, which affected the market greatly. Sore Nipples.

Not- ices are also required to be posted in each house calling attention to the ropes. It is made the duty of the fire marshal, or some deputy, to make an inspection in each town and city in July to make sure that the law is obeyed. Outside of towns and cities, such inspection must be made by the sheriff or some deputy. Provisions of the Law. Folloiving are the salient provisions of the new law: Every owner, lesee, proprietor or manager of a hotel, inn or lodging house situated in the State of Mon- tana, shall place or cause to be placed and maintain or cause to be maintain ed, a rope or better appliance, to be used as a fire escape, in each and every room of such hotel, inn or lodging house used as a lodging room, except' the rooms on the ground floor, which rope or better appliance shall be securely fastened within the room to a suitable iron hook or ring, which rope shall be at all times coiled up and exposed to plain view of any occupant of said room, the coil to be fastened in suell manner as to be easily and quickly loosened and uncoiled, and such rope shall be of sufficient length to reach from the window of such item to the ground, and, with Its fastenings, shall be of sufficient strength to sustain a weight of four hundred pounds.

An Interesting Permanent Feature at the Jamestown Exposition. Norfolk, Va., May 16.—While not on so tremendous a scale as in the open- ing weeks the naval display at James- town will nevertheless be maintained in an adequate manner throughout the entire period of the exposition. The united States government has assigned three ships to duty right off the great pier during the seven months and these will be constantly open to the inspection of visitors. Considering that the mote popular exhibit at the World's fair at Chicago was an imita- tion battleship built on piles in the lake, the reality of the Jamestown squadron will be of the greatest inter- est to strangers from the interior. But this is by no means the limit of naval representation; the harbor of Hamp- ton Roads, being a naval rendezvous, is seldom without several war vessels lying at anchor, and the ships of the United States navy are constantly ar- riving and leaving the harbor. The Navy Yard at Portsmouth, and the great ship -building plant it' Newport News, are generally crowded with war craft under construction and under- going repairs, that no _yisitor need_ leave, the section - withoufhaving lila curiosity fully satisfied concerning na- val matters. Some of the foreign fleets will not arrive until later in the summer, and an effort will be made to have this government extend a further invitation to the different naval powers to make Hampton Roads a gropping place for their individual cruising vessels dur- ing the period of the exposition. This is a frequent occurrence in ordinary times and with proper representations to the different governments could be made a feature. This is to correct the impression that the dispersal of the present fleet signifies the ending of the naval dis- play. At no time during the entire period of the Jamestown exposition will there be less than twenty-five war ships on the nearby waters for the instruction and entertainment of vis- itors. Relief From Rheumatic Pains. \I suffered with rheumatism for ov- er two years,\ says Mr. Rolland Curry, a patrolman. of Key West, Fla. \Some- times it settled in my knees and lamed me so I could hardly walk, at other times It would be in my feet and hands so I was Incapacitated for duty. One night when I was in severe Pala and lame from it my wife went to the drug store here and came back with a bottle of Chamberlain's pain Balm. I was rubbed with it and found the pain had nearly gone during the night. I kept on using it for a little more than two weeks and found that it drove the rheumatism away. I have not had any trouble from that disease for over three months.\ For sale by all druggists. Ch. Sale of isolated Tracts.

Kendall. erstwhile pros- pector who experienced all the downs of that life with mighty few of the ups, the present capitalist and just as fine a man now as before wealth pour- ed in upon him, was talking with an old Lewistown friend at Pasadena. \Do you know,\ asked alr. Kendall, \the luckiest thing that ever happen- ed to me?\ The visitor thought he did of course. It was when he sold the Kendall mine for something like half a million, with the privilege of drawing dividends from the retained interest ever since. \No.\ said Mr. Kendall, \it wasn't that. It was something that happen- ed quite awhile before that occurrence. In fact it was when I as defeated for clerk of the court by Ed. Wright. Yes, that was the luckiest thing that ever happened to me. Being defeated, I had to make the best of it. I put in the winter at Gilt Edge as best I could --oh, It was a hard winter for me all right. And then after working around, I got hold of the Kendall and you know the rest. But if I had been elect- ed, it is certain that instead of selling the Kendall mine, I should today be either filling or looking for a chance to fill some deputyship at about $100 a month. Really, I owe a good deal to Ed. Wright for defeating me, but I didn't think so then.\ Paddy Rogers, a distinguished citi- zen of Butte, was one of the leaders of the mob that tried to lynch a po- liceman last week. A man arrested on suspicion of being one of the North- ern Pacific train robbers having made a break for liberty was killed by an officer. Paddy now gives out a \signed statement\ through the me- dium of the press, gravely announcing that he is going to \pack a gun,\ and will kill any one who attempts to ar- rest him. Chief of Police Mulholland is especially notified that If he at any time desires the society of Paddy, he must send a messenger to the latter's place and notify him in a respectful manner, whereupon he will appear. But not otherwise. In the same dis- patch from Butte, which was printed in the Great Falls Tribune this side- splitting paragraph appears: \Mayor Corby tonight threatened Chief Mul- holland with punishment if he did not arrest Rogers.\ All of which simply reminds us that after killing a man or two at Butte, or committing some other offense, this Paddy Rogers a couple of years ago made his way to this city and then to Kendall. The sheriff's office at Butte evidently was not terrorized by Paddy and actually sent out notices giving a discrlption of the man and asking that he be arrested. A couple of Kendall parties saw \the Man From Butte\ in a saloon and just took him in. Another incident connected with the little mob incident at Butte is of local Interest. Patrol Driver Charles Jack- son, who shot the fleeing prisoner and thus started all the trouble, is a form- er Lewistown man. He lived here for some years and has a good many friends in this section. With \Tex\ Collier, he kept the \Big Tepee\ be- fore it was turned into a \show shop.\ Jackson is a Texas man, and could shoot some when he lived here. Evi- dently he has not forgotten how to use 8 gun. Students Of colonial history will re- member the Incident that gave rise to the name \Dustin's Island.\ In 1697, Hannah Dustin Was living with her family at the .little settlement of Hav- el:hill when - the Place was raided by Indians, who killed all the whites ex- cept Mrs. Dustin and a boy, Samuel Leonetti. They were taken by the In- dians to their camp on an island In the Merrimac river, near the city of Concord, New Hampshire. History records that at night, when the Indians were asleep, Mrs. Dustin, with the small assistance of the boa used a hatchet so silently and to such good effect that she killed ten of the braves and put the others out of com- mission and escaped. That Is how the island received the name it bears to this day. E. P. Chandler was rear- ed in that section, and knows all shoat the story. He was chatting wits. Rufus Thompson at the Judith club the other night when Mr. Thompson remarked that he had recently re- ceived the new's of his aunt's death, the latter's great great grandmother being the heroine of the island story, Hannah Dustin. Some one intimated that his illustrious relative probably had more agility and a smaller sense of humor than our Rufus, but George W. Cook joined the group in Ume to show that physical strength is charac- teristic of the Thompson family. When a boy he knew an uncle of the repre- sentative, living In the Green Moun- tain state. This uncle was an exact counterppart of the Fergus man, ex- cept that he was about a head short- er, and he was reputed to be the strongest man in the county. Engineer Clow, who was brutally murdered by the men who tried to hold up the Northern Pacific train near Butte g short time ago, In the supreme moment proved himself to be a hero. When the bandits climb- ed over the tender add ordered him to thow up his hands, the train was thundering along at a terific Speed. Just ahead of it was a sharp curve, and the engineer knew that If the train hit that curve at the speed It was going it would mean death to the passengers for whose safety he felt responsible. So, before comply- ing with the order, he threw on the brakes, the work of an instant. But that instant of delay brought death to him, thqugh tilecaliassengers were saved. Rev. J. A. Martin, of this city, knew Engineer Clow well. Nearly 20 years ago, when Mr. Martin was a train pilot instead of a sky pilot, he used to run from Billings to Helena, and he gained a knowledge of the strenuous life in those days that will last him quite a while. It was then that he knew Mr. Clow well. The heroism of the engineer did not sur- prise Mr. Martin—it was about what he wouln expect Clow to do under such circumstances. \Ne was a brave, careful, conscientious man,\ said Mr. Martin, \and he met a hero's death.\ Stomach Troubles. Mrs. Sue Martin, an old and highly respected resident of Fiabionia, Miss., was sick with stomach trouble for more than six months. Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets cured her. She says: \I can now eat anything I want and atti the proudest woman in the world to find such a good medi- cine.\ For sale by all druggists. Samples free. Ch.
