R. M. Whalen, a lineman in the employ of the Missouri River Power company at Butte, was killed by electricity Tuesday, He came in contact with two lead wires and 2,200 volts passed through his body. The strike of the anthracite coal miners seems to be no nearer set- tlement than ever, and the pros- pects of a bitter fight are good. On Tuesday, according a to Wilkes- barre dispatch, the Delaware, Lack- awana & Western company’s vin- duct which crosses the river above Duryea, was dynamited and dam- aged to such an extent as to neces- sitate the complete suspension of traffic. Rioting is on the increase, and more troops may be called out. Men employed by-the-D, L.& W. company fighting fire deserted their work, and three of the com- pany’s mines were left at the mer- ¢y of the flames, and it is feared it will be necessary to flood then.

Leslie, and was admitted to the bar in 1876, after which hg practiced law at his home in Glasgow, Ky, till 1877, when he came to Montana, locating at Great Falls.

Evans of Missoula the candidate for congress, was born in Sedalia, Mo., in 1863.. Two years later the family moyed to Virginia City, Mont At the proper age young Evans was sent to.the United States military acad- emy at West Point, and in 1877 graduated from the University of Missouri in the law class of that year. Forming a partnership with Judge W. H. DeWitt, he began the practice of his profession in Butte. — In 1878 he removed to Missoula where he continued the praictice of his profession. For five years he served the city of his adoption as police magistrate, and was then appointed register of the United States land office of the Missoula district by Président Cleveland, which position he held four years, retiring at the expira- tion of his term with the confi- dence and respect of those having business with that office. Startling, But Not Serious. Under a seven-story-heading the Record of ~Wednesday morning prints an Indianapolis’ dispatch dated Sept. 23, which Contains the following: “At 5:40 this evening, Secretary Cortelyou gave-ortt*the following bulletin: “**At 8:15 the president went {from the Columbia clib to St--Vin- eent’s hospital in his own carriage and shortly after he was in the hos- pital. The operation he require? was performed by Dr. Geor? Oliyer of Indianapolis, in cou. tation with the ‘presiden:’ cian, Dr. George A. Iaing, ‘ George J, Cook, Dr. Henry ©. 80n and Dr, J. J. Richardson. ote UY 9a tem NE EEE Ae eres eI “At the conclusion of the operi- CN a am Ee \ |government tion, the president’s physicians is- sued the following statement: **As a result of the traumatism (bruise) received-in. the trolley acci- dent at Pittsfield, Mass., there was found to be a circumscribed collec- tion of perfectly pure serum in the iniddle third of the left anterior tibial region, the sac containing about two ounces. which were re- moved. The indications are that the president should make speedy recovery. Itis absolutely impera= tive, hovever, that he should re- main quiet and refrain from using the leg. The trouble is not serious, but temporarily disabling,’ ”’ All engagements were cancelled, and the president’s itinerary was thus brought to an abrupt end. Major J. W. Powell Dead. Major J. W. Powell, director of the bureau of ethnology at the Smithsonian institution at Wash- ington, died at his home in Havent Maine, last Tuesday. He ranked as one of the foremost geologists and anthropologists in the world. Major Powell’s most notable scientific work, from the view point of Washington scientists, was his exploration of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado in the’60s, His fellow workers say that he was not only the -first man who went through yon, but the only one who so far ever has traveled its entire length from Green Riyer station to the the meuth of the canyon, This exploit, scientists say, was one of the most notable geographical geo- logical and ethnological explora- tions and surveys in the history of North America. It was partly undertaken in connection with-the Smithsonian institation and partly by means of his own private re- sources, His Work as director of. the geographical and geological surveys in the Rocky mountain region in the early ’70s. was largely responsible for his selection for executive responsi- bilities later in thia city. This the Colorado can-| , Rocky mountain district was one of four surveys of the territories, which, in 1879, were combined into the present geographical survey. He had been director of | ; aaa anthropology since he founded it | in 1879 ‘and also was director of | the geological survey for more | than. a decade, beginning in 1830. | | Collective Ownership. | Ten thousand persons attended an open air mass meeting in M¥di- son Square, N. Y., Saturday night, organized by the Central Federated union, in sympathy with the strik- ing coal miners in Pennsylvania. A corps of young women and men, preceded by a brass band, marched around the square all evening with boxes for contributions for the aid of the strikers. They were well patronized. John Mitebell, president of the Unjted Mine Workers, and Samuel Gompers, president of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor, in their addresses denounced the coal op- erators in strong terms. Other speakers were Henry George, Er- nest Crosby, Charles F. Adams, John S. Crosby and Benjamin Han- ford. _— Resolutions were passed which said in part: “The time has come when no in- dividual or corporation may longer be allowed to remain in sole offher- ship and control of a prime neces- sity of life for the whole people. We declare in favor of collective ownership and operation by the people of the coal mines and those dependent on thém, as the only way out of the present state of social war between a few capital- Fists, who own all the means of pro- duction, and the masses of the toil ing people, who use them, and as the only way to secure to cach worker the fall — of his-tdi= bor.”’ In an interview given prior to the Madison Square meeting. President Mitchell said the miners are still willing to submit their de- iuands to arbitration and to abide oy the decision of the arbitrators, He-said he had not come here to meet any of the operators and 8:00 p. m.; ¥. P.8.C. E., would not try to sec any of ‘them. 20 T Rr mnt mms He aeabad i reports that he intended to submit modified demands to J. P. Morgan or the operators. — : Sure Cure For Dyspepsia. Justice Shiras has a collar but- ton story which he tells witha great ‘deal of ‘gusto, says the Chicago Record-Herald. A man in Pittsburg where he used to live, had a wife who was complaining of dyspepsia, and she heard ofa certain remedy that was put up in capsules. Her husband bought a dozen ata drugstore, and brought them Wome in a pillbox, At the same time he bought a dozen collar buttons made of metallic compo- sition that looked very much like pearl, and the druggist gave him a’ pillbox. similar to that in which the capsules were put up to carry them in. Ile took both boxes home, handed them to ‘his wife, and the same day she began: to take the.medicine. After she had taken 12 doses she was entirely cured, and advertized the wonder- ful. remedy all over the neighbor- hood, About this time her hus- band lost his collar button, and, opening his pill box, found it empty. A brief investigation showed that the capsules in the other pill box were still there, and that his wife had swallowed 12 composition collar buttons, two day for six days, and been en- tirely cured of dyspepsia.

Kassitn Pasha when minister of war for Egypt was very particular in re- gard to the personal appearance of his officers and issued striggent orders that they should uever appesr un- sBhayea in publlec,. One day he pict upou the street a Heutenaut who had bearded the pasha and disregarded bis orders, “To'what regiment do you be- long?” demanded the tndiguant minis- ter, “To the —— regiment, at Abas- éouh,” replied the frightaned- Veuten- ent. “Get inte my carriage at onge Bo that 1 ean carry you to the encamp- ment and have you publicly puulshed,” was the stern command which follow- ed. The young man obeyed, and the twain rode along gloomlly cnough for some time, When the pashn stopped his earriage and entered an oilice Where he avoull be detained for some time on business, Beizing the opportunity, the culprit sprang from the vehicle, darted into a neighboring barber's stall and regained lis post before the return of his jailer nilnua. his beard.. For the remainder of the route the officer bur- jed his face ip bis hands and seemed the pleture of apprebension Abaeseuh was reached at last, and all the offleers were assembled to wit ness the degradation of their eomrade, who all the while kept well In the rear of his chief, “Come forward, you son of a dog!” erled the trate pasha, when there stepped before bim an officer with a face as clean asa baby's and a look of the most supreme Innocence, Ills excellency gave one look of blank astonishment and then, with an ap- preclative smile breaking over his war worn features, turned to the assembled oificers and sald, “Llere, gentlemen, your old minister is a fool, and your young lleutenant Is a captain,” THE SIZE OF FAIRIES, Creatures Who Live ta the Poetry of the Ellsabethan Age. Readers of Ellzabethan poetry are familiar with fairies who fashion coats from a_bat's wing, fans from those of butterfiles, coverlets from the skins of snakes, wage war with epiders and make expeditions on the backs of files, Writers have commonly assumed that such minuteness was the product of poetic fancy, which reduced these sjitr- its toa size much below that admitted by popular bellef, but this ts an error. Folklore supplies us with abundant examples of fairies who can carry no more than-a single straw, who emerge from a molehill and make a thread bridge In order to traverse a keybole. Concordant Is the testimony of lan, guage, ag when the foxglove passes for being a fairy cap. If a size wo reduced cannot allow his- torical interpretation, still less does ethnology explain the qualities of these fays, who In power do not differ from their larger cousins. Queen Mab; no larger than the jewel of a ring, Is yet eherged with the functions of a birth goddess. The least fairy can steal a bride or a baby; tenulty is of less con- sequence, sluce any Uny sprite can at will assume gigantic proportions. The fairies who In one canton are repre- sented as dwartsh In the next may be described as gigantic. The contrast, which cnnnot be ac- counted for as arising from Wistorteat memorics, way be easily explained by the carly modes of conceiving mature. In prehistoric. conception a> mountain might pass for a large man, a river for a tall one, while the Inmates of petty hillocks would naturally be imagined as possessing a form corresponding to the narrow Iimits of thelr babitants.— International Monthly. Seventh Century Needlework, Before the end of the seventh century needlework was carried to great per- fection In convents, where it was used for the embellishment of the cburch and the decoration of priestly robes. Artists did not think it beneath their dignity to trace the patterns used for embroidery in their natural colors. A certain religious lady, wishing to em- broider a sacerdotal vestinent, asked no less a personage than St. Dunstan, then a young man, but already noted for his artistic skill and tuste, to draw the flowers and figures which she after- ward worked in gold thread.
