THELOVE OF HOME'THE NATION'S CAPITAL
Desireto Possess One of Our Own In^^nate in Ev^ ry Heart.
WHEREAND HOW TOGET ONE
BozenitnOffers Greater Induce^^ment* Than Any Other City In^Montana-West Side Ad^^dition the Best.
Theholiest insiinri of the human heart^is (he love of home*; anil within every^man's ljiT.11,1 is implanted an innate de^^sire to at some tune imisscss a home of^his own. No mailer what hi^ efgttsta^^stances may he, some when' in the ileep^recesses of his heart nestles the fond ho|^e^that a pleasant home, together with all^tho tender associations which the word^implies will yet lie his.
Man'slife may lie divided into three^periods. First, the happy home life of^iiis boyhood, when hu j^ surrounded by^brut hers, sisters anil lricnds, and is^matched over w ith tender solicitude w hi^ h^only a mother's love ever knows. Next^comes that vague, unsatisfactory, dream^^like period of existence when everything^is to he and nothing is. It Is during this^period that vice presents itself in its'^most alluring forms, and happy is he who^comes out scatljless from the evil in^^fluences w hieh beset his footsteps where-^ever he goes. It is the unutterable^longing lor something better that^takes |Kisst ssiou of men's hearts^during this period which is^responsible f^,r the doubts that arise as to,^w hether life is worth living, and the sooner^the |^eri^sl ends the lietter it is for the in^^dividual and lor Mm world. Last and best^is the time when man takes unto himself^a mate ami the true responsibilities of life^begin. From that time on he has some^^thing to live for. something to call out his^Is'st energies and develop the innate no.^bilitv of his soul, il hi1 has any.
Andit is now. more than ever before,^that he feels the want of a home of his^own. He may lake Iiis lair young wife^into a house in longing to another and Is*^happy there. Hut he caiinut help but feel^that they BSW mere sojourners in the place,^ami that every dbllui s|ient in beautifying^thc.r home is a dollar invested lor the^lien* III of some future tenant. II he is^w ise he w ill not spend much money in that^M|. He w ill apply it to the purchase of a^home of^ his own. and then cwry dollar^expended m tin- way of .idol nun-ill will^add to the beauty and \ulue of his own'^property.
Inselecting a place of permanent alsxle^it is the pari ol wisdom to choose a locality^combining good business and residence^ijualitii'atioiis. in this icspcc t Hozemau^stands peerless among Montana cities.^Surrounded by the largest area of pro^^ductive agricultural land between East^^ern Dakota and l'uget sound, besides^being in the heart of tin' great mineral dis^^tricts of the state. Iloienian is tho princi^^pal financial and commercial center of^Eastern Montana, and the prestige it now^has it can easily retain to the end of time.^Its constant anil steady growth during the^last few vein s is a sale criterion by which^to guage its future progress. Only it^should always he borM in mind that with^each succeeding year its advancement will^be greatly aceellerated l;y the infusion of^new blood and the incoming of outsitle^capital. The present season, for instance,^w ill see the city taking great strides to^^wards metropolitan appointments and ap-^|ieurances titan ever before. In a few-^weeks it will have a daily paper equal to^any in the state ; by the middle of summer^it wi'l have an electric car line traversing^its principal streets; contracts have been^let for a etkUAr t se ll.^ol house unci for res^^idences that would 1st a credit^to uuy citv in the Noithwcst j^It will have a ttoiiriug mill^of sullicient capacity to grind half the^gram raised in the valley; it already has^a hotel large enough 10 accoinmodute hun^^dreds of guests and w Inch is firs'class in^all its appointments: it has city hall^which tot be,uit^- ot architecture and con^^venience of arrangements is second to^none 111 this state; it has an elegant opera^house with a seating rapacity of nearly^1,001*: 11 has a public library containing^ovei 1..KI0 volumes ; it has sev en c hinches^and .111 e xc clh ut | ciiicational institution^aside from the public schools. \\ hat more^need be said to prove that Bozrmati is a^c ity in fuel as vv eil as iii name '.'

W.shim.ton. May 17. ^'handler intro^durcd a bill to authorize the registration^of certain steamships as vessels of the^I'nited States; referred to the committee^on commerce. It recites that Austin for-^bin of New York and associates, propose^to organize a company to he known as the^American Steamship company, with a^capital of at least $1(1,000.000. for the pur^^pose of i .instructing and purchasing first^class passenger steamers to run between^the city of New York and some port^or ports of Great Rritian aud pro^^vides that all vessels of the com^^pany of not less i han 7.000 tons^and capable of a speed of not less than 0^knots an hour, anpiircd by purchase or^otherw ise after the passage of the act.^shall be entitled to receive American reg^^isters in accordance with the conditions^of the act of May 10. \W2. provided the^company shall show to the satisfaction of^the secretary cvf the treasury that it was^built oi contracted to have built la an^American ship yard, a vessel of equal or^gieater tonnage with such foreign built^ship. also, provided that no register shall^be issued to a foreign built ship until the^company shall have acquired, or applied^foi the registry of at least two such fot-^eign built ships, with a specified capacity^and speed.
Thenaval appropriation bill was then^taken up, the pending question being the^provision for an increase of the navy.^McIJhcrson. who Friday last offered nn^amendment to strike out tho bouse pro^^vision for an armored cruiser and the^senate provision for a battle ship, and to^prov ide for three, instead of one harbor^defense double turret ship, monitor ty pc,^modilled his amendment, leaving the^number of monitors at one. Higgius of^Delaware favored an inc rease of the navy,^even if it involved increase national debt.^\ ilas said the amount of annual^appropriations imposed on the country^might not improperly tie desc ribe d as ap^^palling, and he did not think tne senate^should go further towards increasing the^uav y under the present circumstances than^the house bill provided. Vest of Missouri^said he would vote against the proposed^increase in every shape aud form. Allison^of Iowa, c hairman of the appropriations^committee, asked the democratic senators^to indicate what statutes they would like^to repeal in order to reduce the^appropriations now necessary. Vest^replied he would repeal the siisar bounty^law and the postal subsidy bill.^Allisou calculated the amount this would^save at about s*.000.0ut) and said the coun^^try was asked to elect a democratic presi^^dent aud senate in order that the sugar^ts-.unty aud postal subsidy laws might be^repealed. Vest replied that would just be^a sturter. Allison referred to the condition^of the public treasury and. among other^things, said to the senators who were dis^^tressed about a sinking fund at this time :^^I will say it has $:i*.ono,000 to its credit^and the chances are before the fiscal year^every dollar that ought to be applied to^it for the year, or within a few millions^ot least, will be applied to it. When the^fisc al year ends wc will have instead of^bankruptcy K.S,000.0n0 surplus, and prob^^ably j:^).OiW.00O. That is the latest esti-^mate, and 1 havn no doubt we will keep^w ithin il. I will venture my statement ^^u^the ^.'.'i.ou0.i^^i. aud say every requirement^ol the treasury w ill have been satisfied,^and thai there w ill be t2S.in0.unii surplus^on the 1st of July next.
Millsof Texas said the report of the^se cretary of the treasury did not coincide^with Allison's statement as to surplus.^Hawley of Connecticut said none of our^w ar ships could go out to open sea for bat^^tle. They were splendid chasers-and^probably splendid runners but what was^w.lined was at least a few of the old kind^of 1M2 and .V. and '00. Finally n vote was^taken on Mel'herson's modified amend^^ment and it was rejected yeas Is; nays^30.
Morganol Alabama offered an smend-^meiit providing that if harbor defense^ships lie p it on the I'acdtc coast, an al^^lowance of three |^cr c-ent. may lie made^on its cost to the contractor in addition in^the contract price to cover cost of the^tiaiisportatioii of the material.

London.May 17. There appears to be^an epidemic of assaults on women travel^^ing alone in railway compartments. Yes^^terday a painter named Windle was ar^^rested at Ketfonl for assaulting a rook^named Hannah forelock, in a railway car^^riage. The prisoner was arraignod to-day^aud remanded tor trial. Another case,^w hie h is all the blacker from the fact tho^offender is a minister, was reported to^clay. Itev. Kennedy Hell, ructoi of Little^Bedwin. 111 Wilkeslure. was travel^^ing in company with Miss Pi nan.^daughter of the Kiltenburv station^master. He s|s.ke to the girl and^she seeing he was a ^ lergy man entered^into a conversation with him. Finally he^made an impioper proposMtosV w hich she^indignantly spurned, hut he took advant^^age of Ins siipcrioi strength and indecently^assaulted her. though not until she made^a desperate struggle toesc ape. When Ihe^train reached fireat Hedw in. Miss Britan^got out, but did not mention the assault^to the guards, telling her parents, how.^evci.sooiias isjssible what had befallen^her. The train proceeded on its way and^a telegraph operator took Miss Rritnn's^seat in the compartment. Bell engaged^her in conversation and at last tried to^fondle her. She repelled his advances,^hut he persisted and grasped her abnu^^the waist. Despite her frantic efforts to^free herself he succeeded in assaulting^her. As iisiiul the communication cord^was not in order, and leuth girls, though^they shrieked for help, were not heard.^After Bell had committed the^crime he talked to Miss \ leery,^pointing out to her the disgrace^that would accrue to her. should she tell^of the affair, but she refused to listen and^at the next station notified the guards of^the occurrence and the rev erend scoundrel^wss taken into eustodv. shortly after^ward the police were informed uf the fea,^sault made ii|s^n Miss Britan. Bell, who^is a married man. w ith tw o children, here^^tofore has borne an excellent reputation.^The gir!s are also of Ihe best c haracter.^The affair has caused w ide-spread indig^^nation, and the feeling against Bell is very^bitter.

WsLLsc-k.Idaho, May |7. There is ab^^solutely no change in the situation to-day^involving the Mine Owners' association^and the Miners' union in the Coeur^d'Alene, although a thousand rumors^have been freely circulated, nor is there^likely to be any change for several days^to come. It was reported that a number^of non-union men had left the T'nion I^mine this morning, but this statement^has since been denied. Tbe mine ow ners 1^claim that only 18 men have left the mine j^so far. and a number of these have been^discharged for incompetency and other^reasons. The miners claim, however,^that the number is much larger.
Itis a well-known lact that ihe agenis^for the Mine Owners' association are^scouring the country in search of men. It^is also said that a large number have lieen^secured. East and West, and that they^will be brought here in a few day s. It is^evidently it hard matter to get non-union^men to come into the Coeur d' Alene^country', as w arning has been sent broad^^cast of the trouble existing here. The men^w ho recently arrived here from the West^Superior mining district say that a force^of fully iUO men had been secured to come^here, but that all but H refused to go^w hen the train was about to lesve for the^West. A majority of the miners who^remained behind told their friends to^write to the tn upon their arrival here and.^incase there was no trouble, they VMM^e otne on at once.
Ithas been reported that the mine own^ers offered these non union men i.V^n per^day foi miners and t^l for car men and^shnvelers, but. on their arrival at the^I '111011 mine, told them they would pay but^MJi and a day. This was denied to-day^by several prominent mine owners who^say that the v have in no case attempted^to rut the scale of wages offered 111 their^ultimatum to the Miners' union.
Withregard to the men still remaining^at the I'nion mine there is a difference of^opinion. The mine owners claim that^there are about lun men there. This^number, the miners rlsim. inc ludes the^^tO armed gusrds under the leadership of^Joe Warren, who has returned to the^mine since furnishing bonds for his ap^^pearance before Judge Angel, on Monday.^May JS. to answer to the charge of having^entered the state aud unlawfully im-^psraonsxad a I'nited Stales deputy^she lift. It cannot be definitely learned how^many of these men are at work. Some^sat that all of Uism are working, while^others say that only six am engaged in^mining. Men who have quit the I'nion^mine say that not a single man is at work^who arrived here from tbe Fast last Sat^^urday . They aay that they are all anxious^to leav e the mine, but are intimidated ba^^the dire threats made by the |^osse of^arineel guatds. and then reason given is^thai they elo no) want to leave without^their baggage, whh h is stored in the com^^pany's hoarding house at the mine and^which the non-union men fear they would^lose should they desert.
Prominentmemlwrs of the union say^that they are not at ail anxious to have^these men quit at present, as they will get^them all out when ihe proper time routes.^They say that the mine owners csn feed^ihem just as cheap as they can. The min^^ers are in receipt of letters and telegrams^daily from all parts of the I nited States^from labor organizations in general offer^^ing donations to the bind. Five hundred^dollars way received from the Miners'^union at Eureka. I'l.eh. te-day. and a tele^^gram from Spokane slated thai the union^mineis could have any thing they w anted^and that a carload of provisions aould he^forthcoming at onc e-.

Both gentlemen are retice-ni re^^garding matters |M-ri.lining to the coming^suit 111 ihe I'nited Mates district court at^Boise m bine. The miners have-every^oontielclire, howevc i. that the injunetion^w ill be quashed, as thev claim 11 was sc-^eured by gross misn-preseiitatton.
Oilbeing interviewed by the stani^-^sRn's correspondent to-day. 0. B.

Per^sexually I be-lieve in miners' unions when^ggajgetrig coneiucteei 111 any uud every nun^ing camp.

sanlvfollow that we sic compelled to ask^them TOO times. If we cannot run our^mines 10 suit ourselves this summer, we^will wait until next summer, or such tune^as we can do so w ithout interference. As^far as I am personally concerned. I do net^care whether a minet who works in my^mine boards at tbe company boarding^bouse or not or trades at a company store.^He can hoard or trade where he pleases^I realise that this tight may l^e a hard one^and work hardships on ritnens in genersl.^We do not eare how much money they^have in Montana or how strong the union^may be. we intend to iiuietlv pursue the^co urse w hie h has already been planned^we do not c are if every man at the l inen^mine quits or how inati. others wno 1n.1v^be brought 111 quit. That does not rut any^figure w hatevei in this fight.
Mr.McAtjley was apiiarently g'wsl-na-^tured when interv iewed. but inclined 10^lee a trifle sarcastic 111 his remarks, lag^McDonald has been engaged to superin^^tend the Tiger mine at Burke, and 11 St^probable that, should a force of non-union^tinners be lleporteMl. they w ill lee put to^work theie at once. The miners claim
thatthey do not care how many^men are shipp-d in. as ev^^ery one of them will come high.^Many men ant w illing to como hen: just^seseg the country, ^s their fares are^paid, they ire at bin little expense and^w ill not go lev work when thev reach ihe^Couer d'Alenes.
