k~---- FIVE FOIf1iGN MINISTERS. Our Envoys to Austria, Spain, Belgium, Switzerland and Japan. - HRnnis Taylor, the new minister to Spain, l-a Mobile lawyer of high repute and a scholar of great attainments, but is a comparative stranger in politics. His contributions to historical literature have given him reputation among lit erary men, and his book on "The Origin and Growth of the English Constitution," of which but one volume has yet been published, has been adopted as a text book by seven universities. It is his in tention to complete the work during his stay in Spain. Mr. Taylor was born in North Carolina and is about 40 years of age. He has lived in Alabama since his boyhood. BANNIS TAYLOR. JAMES S. EWING. EDWIN DUN. BARTLETT TRIPP. JAMES O. BROADIIEAD. During the early days of his first ad ministration President Cleveland ap pointed Edwin Dun of Ohio secretary of legation in Japan. President Harrison permitted him to retain the office, and now he has been appointed minister at the court of the mikado in recognition of his efficient and valuable services. Mr. Dun is very popular with the Japanese, and the friendly relations between their government and our own are said to be in a great measure due to his efforts. He is a native of London, 0., and is about 45 years of age. James S. Ewing, who goes to Belgium, hails from Illinois, but was born in Ken tucky about 50 years ago. He is a cousin of Vice President Stevenson, and the two men have been lifelong friends and busi ness partners for 25 years. Mr. Ewing is regarded in Illinois as one of the best lawyers in the state. He has been promi nent in politics, but has never before held public office. His home is in Bloom ington, Ills. Bartlett Tripp of South Dakota, who has secured the Austro-Hungarian mis sion, was prominent in Dakota politics before the division of the territory. He was appointed chief justice of the terri torial suprcma court during President Cleveland's previous term and was men tioned for the United States senate as the Democratic opponent of Senator Kyle. He is about 48 years old and lives at Yankton, S. D. Minister to Switzerland James O. Broadhead is an ex-congressman from St. Louis and has long been prominent in politics there. He has had some ex perience in diplomatic matters, having visited Paris for this government in con nection with the French spoliation claims. He was a member of the con stitutional convention which deposed the legislature of Missouri during the war and governed the state for two years. "THE LITTLE WHITE HOUSE." Where the President Will Live During the Hot Summer Days. President Cleveland is going to follow the precedent he set during his previous term and have a summer residence in the suburbs of Washington. Eight years ago, it will be remembered, he purchased Red Top, or Oak View, as it was re christened, for his summer house and is said to have made a snug profit on his investment when he sold the property at the end of his term of office. This time, instead of purchasing, he has leased a fine property on the Woodley lane road known to Washingtonians as the Middle ton house. It is nearer the city than Red Top, and from the windows there are charming views of the town and the country to the north, the most pictur esaue section of the Rock creek re.ion. THE PRESIDENT'S SUMMER HOME. The house is old fashioned, roomy, com fortable and large, having a frontage of fully 100 feet and containing a spacious music room and a dining room large enough for 50 people. It is picturesquely located on a knoll in the midst of a grove of fine old oak trees on the south side of the Woodley road and some distance back from it. It has the appearance of being the work of better artisans than are now engaged in the building business in the vicinity of the nation's capital, the solid old brick walls resting on substantial foundations of stone still looking as if they would outlast for many years some of the gimcrackery of more pretentious modern structures. A carriage way leads up to the house from the road, winding under the great oaks, with stretches of lawn on both sides. There are about 80 acres of land in. cluded in the president's lease, and there is nothing to.prevent his indulging any bucolic fancy that may enter his miiid in the intervals of official business. He will be even more comfortably situated than he was at Red Top and probably much better off than if he occupied the "president's cottage" at the Soldiers' Home, as all the presidents have done since Buchanan's time. Daniel McKeil, a young colored man of Helena, Ark., is growing a new skull to replace one he lost by accident a year ago. He had a fit and fell into an open fire, roasting his head and entirely de stroying half his skull. Now the bone is b.eing reconstructed by some mysterious natural process. Farmers in Marin county, Cal., are complaining of a weed which the cows eat. and which gives a peculiar taste to the milk, so much so that in some dis tricts the milk is unpalatable. It is reported that Melbourne is over flowed with men who wa~rt work but are unable to secureit' PHYSIOGNOMY. A projecting nose and mouth show self confidence, impudence and rashness. High cheek bones always indicate great force of character in some direction. The best noses always show a concav ity between the nose and the forehead. Noses which wrinkle easily are rarely found in men of good natural disposition. Thick, heavy, regularly arched eye brows always indicate sound judgment. Fullness of the temples is supposed to show powers of mathematical calcula tion. Very small, thin ears are usually asso ciated with great delicacy and refine ment. Long foreheads, with close drawn skin which shows no wrinkles, are the char acteristics of cold, selfish natures: When the corners of the mouth turn downward, the indication is of a scorn ful. contemptuous, opinionated man. Small, dull blue eyes, half hidden un der a bony forehead, are generally found in suspicious and cold hearted people. Eyes without wrinkles, or with a great number of very small, long wrinkles, generally show weakness of character. Turned up noses under high, arched foreheads are found only in men of a des potic temperament and bad disposition. Black eyebrows, which almost shade the eye, combined with bony forehead, belong to men of revengeful disposition. Regular wrinkles of the forehead par allel with the eyebrows are generally found in very intelligent and deliberate persons. A flat forehead and an abrupt descent at the back of the head are both unfavor able, either indicating limited under standing. A perpendicular, a very high or a very short, knotty forehead is always bad. Either always indicates lack of sympa thy.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Died In a Strange Land. During the Barnum & Bailey circus parade Saturday morning a pretty Ital ian girl, Celeste Chiesa. appeared on one of the floats as a Chinese woman. She was dressed in rose colored tights, and very thin clothing covered the upper part of her body. Celeste was only 15 years old. She was much pleased with her exalted position and scattered smiles all along the route until as the proces sion neared the close of its journey the chill wind began to pierce her frail form. She shivered like an aspen leaf. Return ing to the Garden she complained of se vere pains in her chest, but stuck brave ly to her work and filled her part as a ballet dancer in the spectacle of "Colum bus and the Discovery of America." She grew worse as the evening wore on and was taken home by Tody Ham ilton in a hack to the humble apartments at 226 Thompson street, where she roomed with several other members of the troop. She suffered intensely dur ing the night and died next day of pneu monia before a physician could be sum moned. She came here three weeks ago on the Paris with Kiralfy's corpsof dan cers. Her home was in Turin. She had no friends in this-city.-New York Ad vertisar. Forbidden to Swear by a Chicken's Head. The trial of William Walsh, charged with robbery in the first degree, was be. gun in the criminal court yesterday. The defendant was represented by Ben Clark. An amusing scene ensued when Clarlk demanded that Jeu Hon Yee, a Chinese interpreter, who was present to interpret the Chinese witnesses, be sworn in the Chinese fashion, and that the same rule be pursued in regard to all the other wit nesses. Judge Edmunds inquired what was the Chinese oath, and Clark replied that the head of a live chicken must be cut off in the Chinaman's presence while he uttered certain words, unintelligible to the American ear, which signified that he hoped he would be treated in the same way if he told a lie while giving his tes timony. Humane Agent Holmes here interposed and objected to any chicken decapitation on the ground of cruelty. Judge Edmunds stated that he could think of no precedent in the law books for such a proceeding, and did not think he would countenance it. Judge Ed munds, after explaining to the China men that they were liable to be sent to the penitentiary if they did not tell the truth, allowed the trial to proceed.-St. Louis Republic. Another Authentic Portrait of Columbus. An alleged discovery at Naples of a beautiful authentic portrait by Titian of Christopher Columbus has caused a great sensation there. Our correspond ent writes: The full length life size por trait was shown to me by Signor Canna vina, the antiquarian, who purchased it from Count Aldobrandi at Bologna. The whole, with the exception of the face and hands, had been coarsely painted over. This extraneous coat being re moved, the figure in the uniform of a Spanish admiral was revealed. The pose and coloring are very quiet; the face is that of a man with hair just turning gray; the eyesare blue,thoughtful and even sad; the mouth is firmly cut, and he wears a pointed, short blond beard and mustache. On the tapering fingers are three massive rings. The canvas is of a peculiar twilled kind. Signor Can navina possesses docuinents which vouch for the authenticity of the picture. It is to be sent for exhibition to Chicago. London News. Surprised While Stealing a Ride. Aman named Edward Fuller of Phila delphia tried -to steal a ride on 'a Penn sylvania;. ailrkad passenger train from the Broad :,street station, intending to get off at aisuburban station. Instead of getting on a local train he beoarded the Cincinnati and St. Louis express, getting between the tender and baggage car. He could not jump off and was citting on the platform when the loco motive scooped up water from the tank between the rails. As the tank in the tender filled up it overflowed and almost drowned Fuller, who to escape opened the baggage car door and entered the car. The huge volume of water poured in after him and deluged the car, de stroying the contents of a- number of truniks. Fuller was arrested when the train reached Harrisburg and is now in jail for malicious mischief.-Cor. Phila delphia Telegraph. Effect of a Popular Song. A shining light of the variety stage has really coi.e to'play a prominient part in the social-life of New Yodrk city. Some tihme since a vaudeville songstress named .Lottie!Gilson caught the fancy of the metropolis with a song entitled "Daddy Woan't By Me a Bowwow." The tune. ful ditty is now heard in every drawing room and at every musicale in New York. The refrain has become a sort of catchword and points half the bits of repartee exchanged in the resorts and rendezvous of fashionable folk. A gloomy look or a somber air invariably brings forth the explanation that its cause is due to the circumstance that "daddy won't buy me a bowwow." Exchange. Ready For the Eclipse. The total eclipse of the sun, to occur in April, will, it is generally supposed, be one of the longest in duration of the present century. Extensive preparations are being made all over the world for its observation. One English party goes to Bathurst, Africa, and one to Pernam buco, Brazil; the Bureau des Longitudes. Paris, sends an expedition to Africa. Harvard college observatory will be rep resented at Arequipa, Peru, and the Lick observatory at a station in Chili. A number of other Americans will prob ably follow. Two Shius. I built a ship-a great large ship, And Pride stood at the helm And steered for Fame, that. uw.'drous land, And Wealth-bright, golden realml And Pride was captain, mate and crew, And launched my ship with much ado. "Now go, my ship, my great, great ship, And laugh the winds to scorn." And, lo, my ship came back to me All broken, bent and torn! I built a ship, a lowly ship, With modern wings of white, And thought not of bright Wealth or Fame, But pleasure rose in sight. Love was my captain, mate and crew, And launched my ship without ado. "Now go, my ship, lowly ship, Thy modest wings unfold." And, lo, my ship came dancing back Just weighted down with gold! -H. Muriel Patriarche. Uncle Jed's Journey. I never grouted, never fussed, but lived here calm an still; For forty year I lived here on the hill in Po kumville. "Don't live here like a snail," said Jim, "with in yer snail shed curled; Ill pay yer fare to go out west an let yer see the world!" An so I got on board the train an whirled off like a breeze, But all I see upon the trip was dirt an grass an trees; See water, stones an sichlike things-some times a brook an hill. Sez I to Jim, "All these ere things I see in Pokumville." We stopped to see Niagara falls, thet makes so much loud talk, An we see a mess er water kinder tumblin from a rock. "If you spill water from it spoon," sez I to Jim, sez I, "'Tiz zackly the same principul," an Jim he couldn't deny. An we crossed the Rocky mountains, an Jim said, "I call this grand." "They're nothing," sez I, "but great hunks of rock an dirt an sand." An we come to the Pacific, an it made Jim look profound, But I sez, "I don't see nothin but some water sloshin round." An we went to sev'rul cities-therewuz nothin there to see, But jess er mess er houses an some folks like you an me, And we come into Chicago. Sez Jim, "How's this for high?" Sez I, "It's jest like Pokumville-the same ole thing," sez I. -S. W. Foss. SIX SPASMS A DAY. Dr. .ites aresdcod Co., lnkhart, I.ad.

First publication March 8, 1898. 85 61 DEER L DGrE IS THE County Seat of Deer Lodge County, Montana ND one of the oldest towns in the State, the townsite having been surveyed in 1864. The town has an altitude of 4,500 feet above sea level. It is incorp. rated and has approximately 1,600 population. A matchless court house square, beautiful lawns, wide and level streets, lined on either side with large shade trees, flower gardens and good sidewalks, well-lighted thoroughfares and wise local gov ernment are matters of the citizens' especial pride. The West Side club, a social organization, has elegantly furnished apartments. It was recently established, not alone for the comfort and pleasure of Deer Lodge people, but as a place to enter tain their guests as well. Deer Lodge is situated in the midst of a vast agricultural and mining section, and is reached from the south by the Montana Union railway, a branch of the Union Pacific system, which forms a junction with the Northern Pacific at Garrison, nine miles north. To the south and west are the great mines of Butte, Granite and Philipsburg, where are also located numerous smelters and stamp mills. Deer Lodge river flows through the edge of the townsite, and offers to manufacturing interests an excellent water power. Her schools are far above the average, fine and ample buildings being provided as well as first-class professional talent. Five church edifices, all above the average, with the usual number of par sonages, rectories, etc., speak volumes for the town. Deer Lodge's location is such as to command trade from the mining, agricultu ral and pastoral sections embraced in a large area, and must eventually become a place of great importance. Water for irrigating purposes is supplied by means of ditches from adjacent streams, while for domestic purposes an excellent system of water works provides a plenteous supply from the mountain streams. The system has sufficient pressure for use in case of fire, and a volunteer fire com pany, provided with ample hose, hooks, ladders and hose carts, looks out for confla grations. A model system of electric lights illuminates the business houses and streets, and a monster pavilion and pleasure grounds have been provided by the citizens for picnics and parties from neighboring towns that in the summer months frequently accept her hospitality. Among the secret orders are lodges of Masons, Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows, United Workmen and a Grand Army Post. The location in Deer Lodge of the College of Montana, St. Mary's Academy and splendid public schools and churches, together with equable climate and healthful environments, combine to make it the most desirable place of residence in Montana. The distance from Deer Lodge to the following points is: To Butte .......................40 miles To Granite....... .............. 38 miles Tao Anaconda............................29 msiles To Phlillpsburg.................... 36 miles To Helena ...................... 43 miles o Pioneer......... ............ 18 miles STOCK RtAISING. There are good stock yards at Deer Lodge fo loading and unloading stock at the railroad There is a fine foot-hill range for cattle arounm Deer Lodge, but it is better for stock men to ,wi a ranch or range for a valley feeding place in thi winter time. Stock for the most part will do wel on the range the year 'round, but it is safer to b prepared for a hard winter, which, by the way has occurred but onIce in eleven years in this sec tion. The tendency to-day is to keep fewer am better animals and provide them with shelter This plan has many advantages over the old way o allowing stock to run upon the range and "rustle.' Deer Lodge valley is especially adapted to fint stock raising, and has produced horses of In tional reputatlon. This town is the home o Poet Scout, High Tariff, Nevada,Montana Regent and Regenlt, the sire of the latter two, besidet a number of other well known thoroughbreds. SINKING WELLS. Water can be had at almost any point ill thi valley near Deer Lodge at atdepth of from tell t. thirty feet, accordinrg to location. The entireval ley is admirably located for the sinking of arte sian wells, which as yet has been unnecessar because of a liberal supply of sparklilng wate; from Iumneros mountain streams. GOLD, SILVER AND COPPER M1INES. The principtal mines of Deer Lodge county ari at Iranite, 3t miles west of Deer Lodge, Aioni them are the Granite and Bi-Metalllc, which arn ranked as phenomenal dividend-payers; on Boul der creek, some lfew mnles this side, is the Royal a million-dollar gold proposition; nrear George town, to the south, is the Cmble miine, from whicl the gold-bugs delight has been taken Iln grea quantities, and was among the first prospeltef with a ldiamond drill; but a few miles west of An aconda the Blue-eyed Nellie yields great quanti ties of silver to its owner. All over the couantri Just enumerated there are hundreds of tlatterlni prospects being developed that give great prom isa of future returns. In addition to the above are the great mines o Butte, Silver Dow county, but 40 miles distant where are located, aeong others, the greal roplier-producing group of mines belonginy to tile Anaconda company. They yield thou sands of tons of ore daily which is brought bhi rail to Anaconda, III Deer Loidge county, where 11 is treated at tie companly's works, the largest o1 the kind in tile world. New districts aire constantly being opened amn developed it Deer Lodge county, her mining in dustry being as yet in insifanscy. But a few miles east and southeast of Deer Lodge are locates Zosel anld ro Fino districts, which are surely ant steadily coming to the front through a liberal sup ply of Deer Lodge capittl. The Emtery company, in Zosel district, halve shipped thousands of tonl of silver-lead ores, which they haul to the rail road tt Deer Lodge, while the Champion com pany, of Oro Fine district, have now a 2li0-stamp mill, locatetd here, working on ore from their grouts of leads tha;t will slhortly prove it baud somle tdivideid payer. These two last ianmed dlis tricts are naiturally tribntlry to Deer Lodge. both being connetcted by daily sttge linlies; in fact they are Iher bright, plr'insing chilhren, their discovers alnd developnmnt having been aacmnpllishted for the most part by her citizents. hUNTING ANDI) FISIHING. To the ilaverailge tired anld worn-out businellss man, as well as to tile citizen in good health. hultihlg ind fishintg are sports that never grow oldt.
