Missoula,Sept. 22 ^One of the busl-^n( i.i, ^^ :,. bs total In town yesterday^was C. II. Musgrove. While a member^of the well-known firm of attorneys of^Crouch ^ Musgrove. the latter also^ortlctntes In the capacity of secretary^of the local s-hool board. This posi^^tion Is. of course, merely a side Issue^to Mr Musgroo's legal ,^ra Ice and^largely a labor of love, but It com-^I in.m I duties thart require diplo^^macy and the moil careful attention.^It Is no sinecure at best and about tha^only personal benefit to be derived^from It Is the addition to the store of^knowledge In that it Illustrates some^of the peculiarities of nature.
IVh.11visited at his office yesterday^Mr. Musgrove was found to be con-^fnmted with a tangled mass of co'rre-^no^vsMM and a stock of photograpths.^Kvery style of punmanship was repre^^sented. The pile of photographs was^larg. lv composed of faces of women.^With a knowledge of the fact that the^secretary of th. board has been a Ben^^edict of several years' standing It oc^^curred to the reporter that the posses^^sion of this remarkable collection of^femininity must of necessity have been^M esrsi under SSCvMSa1 circumstances.^A question elicited the Information^that this voluminous correspondence^was nothing more nor less than appli^^cations of teachers for positions In the^Missoula public schools. Each letter^had been ^ccomi^anled by (he photo^^graph of the applicant. This course^of procedure Is a time-honored custom.^In fact It lsa rotiulEpment of the board.^There were several hundreds of them^and all had been received .luring the^Weeks of the recent summer holidays.
Tothe casual observer It would at^once appear that tiie rush was occa^^sioned by one of! two things^either the^desirability of a position in the local^schools had obtained world-wide repu^^tation or that there Is a surfeit of^school marms throughout the country.^It to not improbable that both of these^conclusions are correct. Be that as it^may, a closer examination of the vari^^ous communications was Interesting^and at once Instructive. In many In^^stances the spelling was bad, very had,^an Inexcusable fault In the applicant.^It was a. startling revelation and in^^dicated the supreme confidence which^some people have In their Inabilities.^Yet fhls Is but one of the vagaries of^certain Individuals who are desirous^of breaking Into 'the educational Held.^Then, too, the series of photographs^were highly entertaining. There was^tihe tall woman, the lean woman and^the fat woman. Every variety of fea^^tures were faifhfully depicted. Age^had commftted Its ravages on some,^while art other Instances the bright and^buoyunt tcnlle of youth predominated.^The applications and photographs will^all be^ returned, all but one. Thut one^has a story connected with It. Per^^haps others have but rheyare veiled In^mystery.
Thophotograph which Mr. Musgrove^will retain Is that of an attractive^maiden of about 20 summers. Her's Is^a sweet, beaming face. In truth she^would strike most Missoula bachelors^as being an Ideal school teacher. Her^credentials are stamped Indelibly on^her pretty features. She made appli^^cation for a place In the local snhools^from Durango, Col. Her credentials^were of the highest order and her cor^^respondence Indicated that she was a^young lady of rare refinement and in^^telligence. The matter was not con^^sidered f.T several weeks. Later the^board took up herappllcatlon and acted^favorably upon it. A letter was for^^warded so Informing her. Nothing was^heard from ft until a few days ago.^when a reply was received from Ohio.^It was couched In faultless language,^expressing her regrets at being unable^to n -eept. Her concluding words were:^^I have accepted a life situation at no^stated salary.^ She was married. Mr.^Musgrove tainted.

Manager McLeod says he^deeply regrets the Inconvenience caus^^ed, but that In order to improve the^service In future It was necessary to^shut off the supply for a few days.

BRIEFS AND PERSONALS.
Missoula,Sept. 22.^Charles Suiter,^the well known building contractor^and architect, formerly a resident of^this city, but more recently of Phlllps-^burg, came In from the east on yester^^day's overland. Mr. Suiter was the^successful competitor for the contract^for the construction of the state normal^school at Dillon. He came here to se^^cure Joseph Itlddell's figures for fur^^nishing brick and It Is more than prob^^able that the product of the Missoula^brickyards will be used In building that^Institution. T'he present one Is the sec^^ond large contract secured by Mr. Suit^^er In as many months. He also has^designs on fevers] others.
Thishas bi en a dry Sunday In Mis^^soula. The wii-'t was shut off all over^town at 0 o'clock this morning. Eddb'^Wlnslow Stetson and Harry Edward^Chan. y dallied with the flesh pots last j^night and consequently did not i wuke^in time to take the usual morning cold^water bath. Besides. Little Dord Faunt-^leroj Weaver had forgotten to save^enough water to -wash down ^ Munhat-^| tan, and they were compelled to resort^to the seasonable and succulent oys^^ter-chaser. But Chancy and Stetson^have sworn vengeance on Tom McLeod^and had decided to call for aid from^the good housewives of the city, when^they remembered that It was the Sab^^bath and not wash .lay. Both of them !^would rather break nine command^^ments than Iks ItobbStb. Keeping the |^Sabbath holy Is their long suit. When^last seen they were humming ^Streams^of Mercy.^ and Incidentally looking for :^Tom McLeod. Both carried canes for i^obvious reasons.

Fromthe St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Balloonsfor warfare are a feature of^up-to-date modern governments. The big^European armies have a well-organised^balloon corps, and It It Interesting to^know that Undo Sam Is doing something^In the same line.
Thatthis government Is Interested In^the air flights of science is shown by the^experiments, not only at the weather bu^^reau, but In the signal service. Out West^at a fort near Denver the government^has a balloon m course of construction^which Is to be used as an aid In war. The^shape Is that of an ordinary balloon, but^a drast rope will connect It with the^ground.
Itwill carry several officers, whose^work will lie to watch the enemy's move^^ments, study the disposition and strength^of his forces, to make photographs of the^field and get all Information possible. An^Instrument called the telephone-tele^^graph will be taken In this balloon, and^by means of the wire a conversation can^be carried on between the occupants of^the basket and tho general on the field^below. Telegraphing can also be done by^the same lnstrumnet, which has recently^been perfected by an officer of this^branch of the government service.
Bicyclesare used by the signal service^men and on a coll of the wheel the wire^Is run and paid out as the machine pro^gresses. Thus, when the balloon has^started up the officer on the wheel rush^es to the tent of the general and the tel^^ephone wire is carried along and let out^till the tent Is reached. This work makes^direct communication between the officers^on the field and the man in the air, who^from Ms station has a complete view of^the enemy and can thus give Important^Information to his superiors.
Thegeneral commanding thus gives his^orders from absolute knowledge of the^enemy's strength and the disposition of^his men. This will be of Incalculable^value to the mode of lighting In the fu^^ture. The balloon, of course. Is not de^^signed to fight, liut to be a watch-dog and^keep a sharp eye on the enemy.
Inthe event of a shot from the foe the^balloon would be so high up as to make^Its effect uncertain. But even If It were^struck there is attaohed to the top a par^^achute, which would enable the officers to^descend safely Into their own camp. This^parachute Is part of the silken weh of the^balloon-woven Into the top so that It Is^always spread and ready for action.^Should a shot pierce the bag the silk^would collapse, but the upper frame,^which la already a parachute, would^simply let the car slowly down to the^earth.
TheFrench government la said to hav*
afine balloon built for use in war. It^Is kept In a large garden and no one Is^allowed to see It, nor has any drawing^been made or photograph been taken. It^Is steered aa readily as a ship. It la ex^^pected that It will be on exhibition at the^coming World's fair In Parta.
TheFrench balloon It said to be a cl-^gar-ahaped envelope, within which la the^gaa and n small bag. which Is to be^pumped full of air. An electric motor^drives In the r*ar a tcrew propeller. It^. ... I ^^^^^ -a ship ^ II able to make^a spee 1 of a: least 3fi miles an hour.

In the boom days there .were man^^flashes in the pan, 'but to-day mining en^^terprises are on a solid 'business founda^^tion, with an ever-Increasing outpii.. Col^^orado, Montana and Utah capital and en^^ergy have done much to bring (ibout th.s^condition of affairs. Just now the great-^eat excitement prevails over a new min^^ing camp within 10 miles of ihla city. [|^la callled the (Black Hornet and it it a^wonderful mine, whose richness mlcht^have remained a secret of Mother Earth^but for the abllilty and enterprise of Col^^orado mem. The Black Hornet a year^ago was offered for sale for $1,000. To^^day W. H. Barry, the ^father of CrtppSe^creek,^ discoverer of the famous Ana^^conda mine, standu ready to buy It tor^$100,000, and, In fact, the tale Is as good^as consummated. The Black Hornet^mine It a wonder. It hat a monstrous^ledge, averaging 40 feat In width, every^Inch of which prospects In gold. About^the center of the ledge It a streak from^five to eight feet In width which yields^as high as $300 to the ton In free .Void,^while It Is rich In sulphurats. The mine^Is dn Its Infancy, but 'when Mr. Harry^takes charge a big mill wllil go up In a^short time, and the Black Hornet will^undoubtedly .become one of Idaho't heav^^iest producers.
Witha mill on Che ground the output^would toon be something enormous. Mr.^Barry to expected to reiturn from Den^^ver In a few days, when he will proba^^bly take charge of the property.
Theresults following the opening of^the mine have .been kept tecret, but a^local paper secured some valuable Infor^^mation concerning the character of tho^ore. Since Ithat time prospectors have^run over each other In .the wild scramble^for locations. Old-time miners now be^^lieve the camp will rival Crtpple Creek.^The Union Pacific Is already considering^the advisability of running a spur to the^mines. The IBlack Hornet Is most ad^^vantageously located. Water and wood^are near at hand In any quantity desired^while there Is no other property in the^state from which ore can be so easily ex^^tracted.
Anothermine that It attracting wide-^tpread attention is the Morning Star at^Silver Cltty. Tntls mine Is an old-timer,^mora than $2,000,000 being Its total output^prior to the time It shut down. The mine^was discovered In 1865, being the flrtt^quartz ledge ever dlieoverel and worked^in Idaho. There are sewn claims In the^Star group, and their development after^years of Idleness It due to Colorado mon^^ey and Colorado push. The Star proper^Is developed to a depth of 300 feet. The^ledge can be traced on the surface for a^mile and has been worked almost con^^tinuously for 4,000 feet, ft will average^fully five fe*t 4n width, with every indi^^cation of widening iwit'h depth. A car^load of ore has Just been shipped to Den^^ver to be tested to ascertain the kind of^a mill that will he required. There Is^already on the dump a large quantity of^ore that will mill over $100 a ton and the^management will waste no tine in get^^ting a mill on the ground.
Themining men of Silver City are^grea'tly encouraged by the mewt that^Dave Moffatt, the Denver capitalist, has^decided to take hold of the Alpine and^Harrison mlms. The expert who exam^^ined the mines said: ^If the mines were^In Colorado, tho owners' price would not^be a drop In the bucket to their market^value.
Themost encouraging news comes from^Lemhi county. Senator Bhoup, who has^Jusit returned from a visit to his proper^^ties there, says the outlook was never^brighter. The Yelkiw Jacket Is dropping^30 Stamps on some very rich ore. A gen^^tleman writing of his visit to that prop^^erty says: 'This lis truly a wonderful^mine and hat undoubtedly a larger body^of free milling gold ore exposed than any^mine in the west.
