Fifty Years the Standard BAKING SWDIR Improves the flavor and adds to the healthfulness of the food. PRIOR IAKING POWDER CO., OHIOAQO. BELLE HINES IS DEAD POLICE THEORY IN REGARD TO THE MANNER IN WHICH SHE CAME TO HER DEATH. SPECIAL TO TIHE INTER MOUNTAIN. Great Falls, Nov. p9.-Without dis closing how the fire that claimed her life originated, Mrs. John Berg, better known as Belle Hlines, or Donnelly, died last evening in the little ho',oe on the South Side that was the scene of the fatality which has puzzled the police. She sank steadily during the afternoon and even ing, dying about to o'clock. Although she was partially conscious she appeared to be unable to recall how the lamp camne to set fire to her clothing, burning her so seriously tht't death brought relief from great pail. The story of her life, beginning with her days in Wisconsin, when she was the belle of the town and c,'arried well, and ending in the sad manner told in the Inter Mountain dispatches, has furnished a mild sensation. The woman's real name may never be known, although there is a man here who claims to know. Her romantic marriage upon her death bed to John Berg, with whom she had been living, furnished another chapter in the sensational alTair. Ine police cling to the theory that the woman was entertaining some friends; that there had been drinking, and during the carousal the lamp was upset and ex ploded, the oil setting fire to the woman. Just how her companions could have had the heart to leave her struggling with her burning clothes adds to the mystery.

A REPROOF BETWEEN LINES Moody Lets World Understand That No Admiral Is Final and that Decisions lMay Be Reversed. S Y ASSOCIATED PREIS. Washington, D. C., Nov. t.).--Secretary Moody yesterday announced his decision in the matter of the protest of Paymaster H. E. Biscoe against the language used by Rear Admiral Evans, commander-in chief of the Asiatic station, in review ing the result of the court-martial of As sistant Paymaster Nichols. After ruling that Hear Admiral Evans, as the convening and reviewing authority of the court-martial in question, was within the limits of his authority in criti cising the finding of not guilty upon the third charge and pronouncing the sentence inadequate, and his criticism and ani madversion upon the court, Secretary Moody says in conclusion: "It is not to be itnferred from this de cision that, although the power of cen sure by the reviewing authority by courts martial is clearly shown to exist by an unbroken practice of many years, it should he indiscriminately exercised. It is to be kept in mind that members of courts martial must be independent in their ac tion and are not subject to control. It is to lie regretted that an occasion has arisen which, in the judgment of the reviewlqg authority, demanded so severe a censurt as that inflicted in this case. "Nevertheless, as the members of the court must be the judges of the measure of their duty, so the reviewing authority must be the judge of the measure of his duty. While the exercise of the discre tion of the reviewing authority is uncon trollable, there is a clear remedy for en abuse of it. If it should appear in anly case that, in the exercise of his authority of reviewing the proceedings of courts martial convened by him, a coimmander in-chief had acted capriciously, cruelly, with evident lack of jldgment'l, or fromn improper motives; in short, if lie had shown himself unhtted -to bIe entrusted with the authority which the law attache.s to his position, the department has the power to withhold from him that authority in the future bly recalling himt from his station. "It is. however, considered that in this instance Rear Admiral Evans has not shown himself unworthy of the continued confidence of the department. On the contrary, in view of the evidence before the court, without weighing too nicely the terms of his censure, it is believed that he was actuated by a high sense of dutiy and inspired by a regard for the honor and welfare of the service." REV. WARMAN DEAD HPECIAL TO TIlE INTER MOUINTAIN. St. Paul, Nov. t9.-Rev. Henry War man of Forsyth, Mont., presiding elder of the Yellowstone district of the M.

INDIANS CHASE OUT CLEVER MESMERIST Flathead Braves Believe He Is in League With His Satanic Majesty. Missoula, Nov. sO.--Highly susceptible to superstition the average Indian does not take kindly to mesmeric feats as was shown on the Flathead reservation a few days ago when a squaw man by the name of Maillett, who has developed into a sort of Herman among the tribe, was compelled to leave the reservation for his life. As the story comnc .here Maillett, who had made a study of hypnotism and ines tmerism to such an extent that if lie found a willing subject he could perform the usual feats of a mesmerist, gave a public exhibition at the Hot Springs on the Lit tle Bitter Root. The Indians gathered from far and near. The subject was a squaw and she proved to be a good one. l'The mesmerist soon had her in a hypnotic condition and then proceeded to put her through the usual antics. The redskins turned pale as she began eating imaginary berries off a board and looked at one another as they saw the member of their tribe try to ride a stick as though she were on- a glass-eyed pinto galloping across the plains. They became angry at the unseen power of the hypnotist and decided to make him move. They classed him as a white devil and ordered him to go. lie failed to heed the command and the Indiatn police, fear ing trouble, carried out the demand of the braves. The Flathead reservation is ac cordingly short one hypnotist. Where Good Men Fall.

This contribution has come at the right time, according to Mr. Mantle, as he has stated several times that there was no way for Ithel Montana coimmission to maike a proper mineral exhibit at the World's Fair exeplt through private contributionls. Whe snseen by an Inter Mountain repre sentative today, Mr. Mantle expressed gratification over the receipt of the tender f so generous a donation fromn tile Amtl amatedi company, especially as the local companies quoted above are among the strongest and largest in the Northwest. lie said: The Montana commission will need at cast $4,000oo more to make a creditable min cral exhibit from this state. And I trust that other large mine owners in Butte and other parts of the state will come forward with donations. After a careful estimlate I find that the commission cannot cover the absolultely necessary expenses of the ex hibit, its preparation, insurance, super vision and protection without coming out behind at least $(5,ooo. This exhibit in St. Louis will be even then inadequate as compared with the resources of the state. And the commission is using all safe guards possible against any but the nost economical expenditures." lPresident Mantle reports that the build ing is under construction at St. Louis, aOýo that the special agents over the state afe reporting rapid progress. F. W. Taylor of St. Louis, chief of the World's Fair Department of Agriculture and Horticulture, has returned from his trip through the western part of the state and stated to an Inter Mountain represen tative yesterday that he was delighted with Montana, "I go back to my work in St. Louis with a gilt-edge opinion of the people of your state and you can assure them that I think Montana one of the wonders of this whole country," he said. "From all that I have seen in the way of agriculture and horticulture in the state I feel asured that the world will be sur pised at the exhibits to be made in the dipart ment s. "It is the ambllition of the Rocky Moun tain states to prove to the sightseers at the World's Fair that something more than copper and gold can be made a product of these states, and as one of them Mon tana's exhibit in grains and fruits will have such as will paralyze Eastern people with surprise.
