'lhis ilncidentt does nlot fit well with thi old theory. cPrhaps Sodonl aind Gomorrah owe their annhila tion liotre to natural causes, sonie of the unalterable laws of nature, than to any visitation of divine dislelasture. Now it is the fat men who are in danger. The Detroit Jourmal records an incidentl which setlem to suggest that in a few years railroad cngineetrs will 'have to find other occupationls whenl they becometl corpettlet, on account of the new type of locomotives coltling into use. The mltat moth I oilers in these locomotives eni croach on the space usually allowed for the cab until it is probable that only mlen of ordinary size can he employed in the near future. Down at Somerville, N. J., tile other day, a tolerably fat engi leer was ordered to take one of these monsters out inll all emergency, anld made several at teimpts to squeeze through the cab door, but il vain. An hour was lost before a smaller engineer could lie found. The funny part of it is that the fat engineer was called on the carpet and ordered to explain why he caused such a serious delay. It will now lie in order for trunk line engineers to take anti-fat treatment. POOR PLACE FOR A KING'S STATUE. Thec public can always expect some thing novel to spring from the active brain of the young German emperor and rarely be disappointed. But his sugges tion to erect a monuuent in 1Washington in honor of Frederick the Great out of his deep appreciation of thle manner in which the American people received his brother, Prince Henry, is a novelty that we are hardly prepared for. As near is muay be gathered from such expression of opinion as the suggestion has called forth, there is not much reason to believe that it acets with approval. In fact the weight of American opinion will he decidely against such an exhibition of good will. American soil is not the best in which to plant the statue of a king. The last statue of a king we had inl this country did not thrive well. It was a very excellent counterfeit presentment of a certain king of England and, if incmory is not at fault, it occupied a conspicuous place in Bowling Green, New York. It was never popular with American colonists and they took ad vantage of the first opportunity to upset the beautiful work of art and melt it into bIllets with which to help drive the king's men out of this country and destroy the whole institution of monarchy on Ameri can soil. There has been no statue of a king here since. While there is a large respect in the I'nited States for the Kaiser, and no one of IIs has a word to say against his illustrios ancestor, Frederick the Great, still it will be relugnant to nine out of tell Amle icanls to see a statue of a king go up ill Washingtonl or anywhere else in this ,co"it ry. l';utleror W\illiam will, we imagine, re ctive su.ch light on this subject as will imduce him to set his mind at work on sometlhing else as a means of expressing his sellse of high appreciation of our cour teniis treatmllnnt of his royal brother. lie couhll sca:rcely have hit upon a more tiun poptular plait thaii the one hlie has pro DEMOCRACY AND TARIFF. Jaines II. Eckels, Mr. Cleveland's oii'iptlroller of the currency, expresses the opiinion that the democracy can will mi the tarilf issue. While it is, of course, not in the titmber for the demllocracy to will in Ilh next presidential election on :llny psibcle issull, they mnight nlake a stlagger at it if they tiook the tariff issue righlt side ii. which is just the oppolsite side from which they have been view lig it. 'The tariff hasi doine a lot for thIe coun try, aild while the democratic party has oposed the Ipolicy with great bitterness aill with alt n llrtas:l.ling ve'henlllcll e that w Ias xtralrdliliiarv even ini the lrelllocra; y, au) in., is such a scarce llatter with thinri just now that they might hbdge and turin high prt ltetitiii ists.

EDUCATING INDIAN CHILDREN. The yearning of the lndians, even half brleds, for education hll s nulever beenll rent., but when they do exhibit a tendency tl acicuulate knowledge it would sceie to II leuarly the duty of society to ien cotllrage thiet :taling these lines and hohl lthe lamp of learning where it will do them the mnst . ied. The opinion of Atornelly General D)onovanU on this point would seem to be sound. This opinion is that if the half-breed hiltiren are maintaining their tribhal relations and receiving rations and supplies fronm the genleral governlment, they are wards of the golvernment, alnd their eduention, as well as their tmainten ance, shulu t hie left to be provided for by the iagel s of the government.It The saute rule wolul apply if the fathers of such children are Indians and wards of the government, for it is well settled that tlh status of the child follows that of the father. But in the event that these children have severed tribal relations and are re ceiving no support from the general gov erinment, then they become eligible candi dates for admission to the public schools. 'The question is an interesting one, ant! it is likewise a very important one, for the education of Inudian children has a strong bearing oin the whole Indian prob lem. The untutored minitd of the savage will tie all the better for beinig tuturecl. A Gutl IT mnany tragic events are occur ring all over the country at this time in the way of earthquakes, cyclones, explo sionts, and divers accidents by flood and field. So rapidly have these disaster:, been following each other that it wouhl seem that "chaos and old night" wsere hearing down upon us. No doubt theue have been times past when calamtities such as these came just as rapidly and were of as direful results, barring only the loss of life, but the facility with which news is now spread broadcast by the agency of the telegraphy bring these present dis asters home to us with mtouch more vivid ness. PEOPLE WE MEET. BF. CAI.KINS, who served in the I'hilippines as adju " tant of the First Montana regiment, will attend the sannual state reunion of the veterans of the Spanish-American war, to be held in Great Falls June 9. "It amuses nc," said Mr. Calkinhs this morning, "to read of the attacks of these narrow minded politicians at Wash ington on our army. When I was in the Philippines I saw enough of the howls B. E. CALKINS. of the yellow Journals about canned beef and that sort of thing, to convince me that with so many enemies at home the armly would have a hard time bringing the Filipinos to terms. "They have sidetracked the worn-out subject of decayed beef and are now play ing up the alleged cruelty to the natives. It is enough to disgust anyone, but the conservative class pays no attention to these calamity howlers who are shouting for political capital." "last nigllt I witnessed an incident that promised to be a serious mnatter, but which turned out to No Comedy be a farce comedy in for Him. brief act," said a man at the Finlen this nlm riling. "1 was passingll a saloon oni Broadway, tile floor of which is paved with silver dollars, andl jtist as I went by, I inoticed a fellow st"tp'illg over the tiling and dig ging with a large knife at one of the coins.

To the Editor of the Inter Mountain: After reading that article in your Fri (lay night's issue about the bakers sell ing inflated bread, I thought first, that the writer wanted to ridicule the funny story of the mnan living in the lower part of your city, but came to the conclusion that he seemed to be sincere about the matter. Any baker and many ladies in Butte can tell you that large holes in bread are the direct results of poor workman shill in moulding the loaf combined with a dough which got too old, and that can happen to most anybo,y. I am a baker by trade myself and want to come to the rescue of the Butte bak ers by saying that in all my travels front Minnesota to the Puget sound as an agent for a bakers' supply company, the Butte bakers, without exception, use the best material, as to flour and ingrediences, that money can buy. There is more Minnesota and Dakota No. I spring wheat flour used there than in Seattle, for instance, and price cuts no figure. W. BUSCIIE. Anaconda, May 24. Wants Hall of Records. To the Editor of the Inter Mountain: There is a publlc matter that ha:., been agitated before, but which has not yet been given the consideration by the people of Silver Bow county that it ought to re ceive--that is, the erection of a hall of records. ThIn people of the county do not appre ciate the need of such a place sufficiently or there would lie an irresistible imove in that direction. The commissioners are in favor of the hall, but they are bound by the lack of funds. They can only spend $I,0ooo at a time, or, rather, in a year, for atly one purpose. That sutmt is not sufli cient to build the hall. The present vault in the county clerk's office is wholly inadequate for the purpose of holliidg the records of that office, and a fire would wipe out priceless documents in a few minutes. This ouglht to he put to a vote of the people this fall. If the citizens voted for an apprlopriaton for the hall, then the commissioners could build it. It is very tmuch cneded. Very truly yours. AT'TOR{N EY AND ABSTRACTO(R. ]',tte, May 24. Why a Secret? 'To the Editor of the Inter Mountain: Under what interpretation on parlia tentary law; can two mIlelmblers of the schooI hoard decide upon the giult of l'rincipal Walker of the high school who is accutscd of kissing one of his pu pils? At Saturday night's meeting a charge was presented to the board which the president turned over to the collmmittee on teacheds of which two constitutes a majority. We believe our schools the sacred trust of the men who ha:Lve pre htllned to condluct thlenm. As concerning public schools, why cannot such ani exam ination be given at least the publicity of the whole board? If \Valker is innocent why does not lhe and his friends court a public investi gation? These are pertinent questions. . One of the friends of the accused man on the board attempted Saturday night to keep the publication of the altair out of the public press and made the remark that if lie were personally concerned lie would see that it was kept out. What is the cause of all this secrecy? Are not the public schools still the property of the people, or are they for the extra ordinary amusement and questionable advantage of a chosen few? Thousands of citizens in this city join with tme in asking these questiouls. What is the occasion for secrecy? R. B. J. Anaconda, May 26, 9o02. MARTINIQUE. [lowell ()tus Reese. in San Francisco Bulletin.] I. I see an isle, green verdure overgrown, An emerald shining in a jeweled sea, Sweet with the odors fromn the orchards blown, That rival those of long-famed Araby. ('am is the sea. The lazy spring tides have \White, shelly shores and kiss the reaches wide \Vlhere from high hills the leaping waters rave To plunge and wrestle with the foaming tide. (;ray looms a mountain o'er the valley where W\ith yellow roofs and ancient gables steep, low 'neath the smoking crater, St. Pierre, Vine-grown and peaceful, nestles half asleep. Far up the slopes a tinkle of sweet bells Floats gently down upon the drowsy breeze Through groves of orange where inces sant swells The droning murmur of unnumbered bees. Sweet Martinique! Not Eden's fairest bowers Entranced the eye and to the spirit lent More languorous joy than where amid your flowers Shrined Nature spread her glories heav ell-sent. II. I see a sky o'er which the sullen frown Of long-dead Chaos gathers, while the world Shakes with the thunder when o'erwhehn ing down Upon the plain cleft mountain tops are hurled. Red glow tile lightnings from the hidden lakes W\here seethe and mutter the eternal fires ; Across the world a roar millennial breaks, And blighted peace burns a thousand pyres. Alh, Martinique l how frail the things of earth ! The glad bell's chime-how near the fun'ral knell! Ilow near to naught all things that seemt of worth !

Judiciary Conjectures. I Yellowstone Journal.] The Billings Times is authority for the statement that an effort will be made at the next legislative session, to create a new judicial district in Eastern Montana. The plan appears to be the divorcin:: of Yellowstone county from the Seven!th dis trict and Carbon county from the Sixth, and hunching these two to form the new district. It is alleged by the 'T'iijes that the Seventh district, now presided over by Judge Loud, is the largest in Ilie state and fast growing to be tile busiest, im posing an excess of work on the judge. We have heard no complaint frons Judge Loud yet, but the knowledge possessed by his fellow-townsmen of Miles City, that lie is continually on the go, froml one end of his district to the other, lends color to the statement that he has more than his share of work, and it is a sure thing that it will never le less as long as the dis trict is maintained at its present size. $20 IN GOLD We will give to every person re quiring medicine at night after our store is closed $2o in gold provided the night bell is not answered within five minutes from the time the electric button is prescsed.
