The Pike inlts Glory
"I
Polyglot Street of Nations Has Great Amusement Enterprises --Mar
vels and Wonders of All the World.
St. Lobis, Missouri,
June 25, 1904.
(Special Correspondence.)
The Pike is at the height of its glory.
Ite riot of color and its jargon of sound
never cease from morning to night.
Those who have been held spell-bound
by the Homeric majesty of architectural
and la ndecape splendor will be drawn
from t hese haunts of dignity into the
forgetfulness of the Pike’s pure abandon.
The brillancy of far eastern life, the
alluring chatter of unfamiliar tongues
and the grac- ful garmentry of flowing
robes and turbans of innmerable wind
ing, make a narcotic dream^wilder than
any phantasm of prosaic slumber. A
galaxy of 50 stupendous amusements
bewilders imagination for a distance of
of nearly two miles
The first glimpse of the Pike is the
sky-line of towering minarets and buld
oue domes, or roofs askew or tapering in
serried gables into into the golden atmo
sphere of summer. Then a jungle of
sound like that we have heard out of the
leaves of the story books of nursery
tips swells louder and fiercer as the visi
t<^r draws nigh to the street of nations.
) Mountain passes 100 feet high over-
Ghadow a weatherbeaten Tyrolean vil
lage with singing pheasants in dresses,
Jobimea sounding the hour from high
J towers, real moutain torrents from the
heights of Ortler and a tram car passes
through some of the lovefat scenes in
the Tyrolean Alps.
Au Irish village has accurate replicas of
Carman's of castle, the old house of par
liament at Dublin and St. Lawrence's
gate. Jaunting cars traverse the Killar
ney lake legion. Irish drama is played
by Ir ish actors. There is a fine exhibi
tion of Irish linens, laces and carpets.
A famous Dublin band enlivens the
scenes of life.
Under and Over the Sea is a trip in a
submarine boat, sinking into real water
to begin its voyage through the coral
reefs of the Atlantic to Paris, where the
bewildered passengers re-embark on an
airship from the pinnacle of the Eiffel
tower, returning over the ocean in the
midst of a terrific storm and a beautiful
dawn effect.
In the Streets of !’> ville smartly
gowned senoritns and gaudy Romauys
congest the Plaza de Torros at Madrid,
the quaint market place of Triana with
its storekeepers offering their wares.
The Gypsy Lane of Barcelona flutters
with color Spanish dances are gheu in
in the Theatre de los Flores.
Hunting in tho Ozmke entices the lov
er of sport to step out of the busy Pike
into the famous mountain region of
Missouri, where his game is seared from
a natural landscnpe.of forest and under
brush. A leal train dashes through the
wilderness.
Hngenbeck’s Zpo, Circus and Animal
Paradise offers the thrilling sensation of
meeting man-eating beasts in a jungle
of growing vegetation, without so much
as a mosquito netting appearing to
separate the spectators from danger.
Giant tortoises carry little cblWeu,
giant reptiles, talking birds at perfect
liberty and a caged arnea of trained wild
animate are striking features.
Mysterious Asia is n mammoth repre
sentation of life in India, Burnish, Per
sia and Ceylor. with graceful architec
ture of tho far Kart Devil dancers, the
torture dance, i nnl:e charmers and the
Nautch girl mingle with curious beasts
"of burden and impossible conveyances,
the sacrificial feast, wedding processions
and religious ceremonies.
Plastic art attains high perfection in
the Mootish palace, where historic Past
Indian customs are illustra'ed. Mas
sive tableaux portray events in the
acquisition of the Louisiana domain
the Discovery of the Mississippi, the
Burial of Ite Soto, the transferor Louisi
ana, and the Lewis and Clarke expedi
tion.
Forty Geishas entertain tea drinkers
in Japan, with its ancient temples and
its crowed streets.
Boosters with tails 23 feet long, carvers
of images from u single rice bean.bits of
the imperial gardens in growing Howers
and stunted trees are not more curious
than native boa’s on lagoons and native
actors in a Japanese theatre.
A vision of two worlds is aren in Here
after. Ona of jourjmty must die to
guide the iving through the shaces of
Hades, depicted with startling reality by
the most t dvanced forms of mechanism
and electr city. The effect of vast dis
tances is wonderful. A dream of the
Groves of Daphne and the Celestial
Dawn will not bo forgotten.
Weaving of glues into tablecloths*
DEVOTED TO THE GREAT AGRICULTURAL. STOCK AND IRRIGATION INTERESTS OF THE MILK RIVER VALLEY.
fancy embroidery, napkins, bandker*
chiefs, neckties ami dresses, all
pliable as ordinary fabrics, are astonish
ing sights done before the eyes of the
spectators by the wizards of the Glass
Weaving palace. It is education and
amusement combined.
There was an Old St. Louis. It is re
vived by historic dwellings, town halls
and block homes of the time of Laclede
and Chotean, founders of the Exposition
city. The whipping post, the trading
station, with a motley crowd of Indians,
trappers and thrifty housewives of the
frontier, furnish the living interest.
Paris is a hvely reflection of the gay
center of fashion and amusement. In a
theater of gold and mirrors opera is
sung, the fun of the Case Chantants
waxes fast and furious, Bohemians read
their poems in~ the Cabare Brnant,
knights in armor tilt in tournaments,
and a street of old provincial architec
ture shows the Franco of long ago.
Ancient Borne is represented by a
street of the Augnstian period of arch
itecture filled with life typical of that
age. In an amphitheater, seating 12,000
persons, gladiatorial combats and sports
of the hippodrome make a strong con
trast to the Burning Mountain of Ki
lauea in the Hawaiian islands with its
Spirit of Fire.
Creation carries the spectator back to
the beginning of time. In a grotesque
craft on a canal of water 1,000 feet long
the visitors glides backwards through 20
centuries around a dome 150 feet in di
ameter, ending in the immense shell
where a voice repeats the divine com
mands of Genesis. Out of the void of
steam clouds the world is peopled with
growing nature and living things.
A history of fashion from the period of
the early Roman colonies to tne reign of
the Paris gown is shown in the Palais du
Costume by a series of living tableaux
in Bettings of the respective ages. The
gowns used in the display were imported
from Paris and cost SIOO,OOO. The dis
play would not be complete without the
history of the coiffure.
Babies are the joy of the earth, eo that
the Infant Incubator becomes an in
cabntion of tiny living fledglings. The
infanta are seen through the glues doors
of their strange nests, where they re
main for 40 days. They are fed in pub
lic every two hours by trainer! nurses.
A real locomotive and train of Pull
m.ui i’oaehee steams out -of a Siberian
railwu. nation and dashes tor hundreds
of miles through beautiful Siberian
scenery, stopping at cities and way
places. The illusion is perfect. A
Russian village with living natives, a
Russian theater with 40 aotors are types
of the land of the czar.
Cairo reveals the true Egypt of the
khedive.' Every detail is produced with
great fidelity, both architecturally and
in its native population, the industrial
phases of this great Mediterranean* mart
have never'been shown before on such a
lavish aud extensive scale. Customs of
the people lire produced with an exact
ness rekdily recognized by4be traveler.
China brings to t ho Pike its joss houses
and temples of bamboo, a theater iii
which native players give genuine drama
of Cathay. Silk weavers ply ancient
looms, ivory carvers are making email
elephants, dogs end cats. In n case
Chinese waiters and cooks provide tho
celestial banquets. Dwarf trees no
larger thi n a wee baby i d jrn the village.

PARSONS DRAWS
MONTH II JAIL
He Collects Money on Newspaper
Receipts apd Then Blows
It In.
RECEIVED SENTENCE WITH SMILE
Has Recently been an Inmate of
Stillwater, Minn., Peni
tentiary.
A week ago last Sunday evening.!. M.
Parsons, a former employe of this office,
was arrested just as he was about to
board a west bound train here on the
charge of petit larceny on a warrant
sworn out by Constable Olson in Judge
Thompson’s court. He had his pre
liminary examination the next day and
was allowed his liberty until Monday
astern oon of this week upon the filing of
a bond for S2OO for bis appearance here
when wanted.
Time ran along and on Saturday even
ing Parsons wrote his bondsmen fro.n
Havre to appear for him and get a con
tinuance as he was planning to take a
trip west. The bondsmen, becoming
scared, sent Constable Olson to Havre
after the young man and all day Sunday
and part of Monday he tramped the
streets of Harlem in the custody of an
officer.
He appeared before Justice Thompson
Mouday afternoon and pleaded guilty to
the charge, asked the court for clemency
and drew a fine of SSO and costs, or 30
days in the county jail at Fort Benton
where he was taken Monday evening by
the constable.
W bile employed in The News office
be secured a receipt book and issued six
yearly receipts for the paper without
any authority. As fast as he collected
the money be spent it in a local house of
ill fame.
He received bis sentence with a smile
and seemed to be pleased that it was not
a heavier one.
Before coming here he served a sen
tence at the Stillwater, Minn., peniten
t iary for forgery committed at Roseau,
tn the same state.
The costs in this case amounted to
$73.
During the past week u large number
of hoboes were arrested by Constable
O 1 son and nearly nil of them were given
floaters out of town except Charles
Verdon, who pleaeed guilty to stealing
six pair of pants from tbe Harlem Mer
cantile cympuny's store. He received a
six month sentence and will now pant in
the county bastlie.
Constable Olson is certainly doing
good work in ridding the city of undesir
able characters and is the best local
officer that the town has ever had. Tbe
county commissioners should by nil
means erect a lockup here for the dis
posal of prisoners who are awaiting trial,
as it is a bad practice to herd prisoners
around in a bunch when awaiting for
trial.
Tom Mallet was arrested in Havre by
Constable Olson Saturday night on n
warrant sworn to by R. M. Trafton of
Malta, who charges that he sold mort
gaged properly. Hie case will come up
Saturday before Judge Thompson.

HYPNOTIC MAN IS
REAL LIVE COUNT
Played Continual Engagement at
. Anaconda Last Year f0r.60
Days in County Bastile.
mm HIMSELF IN JAIL
Has Many Aliases of which “Prof.
L. S. Ellermann” is One—Knows
How to Get Coin Quickly.
Harlem has been entertaining a scion
of Danish nobility for the past few days
in the person of Count Louie von
Lillienkjold, a gentleman with a gennog
oly as long as yonr arm and then some,
wbo has been giving nightly exhibitions
in the opera house of his hypnotic
power, ami from all accounts he has been
getting the coin in large measures from
the dear people roundabout.
About this time last year the “count”
was up against a hard proposision over
in the smelling city of Anaconda—the
town that Marcus Daly with his influ
ence brought to the front so rapidly and
which is now one of the beet cities in
the state from every point of view.
Through some unfortunate incident
Lillienkjold was brought up before
Police Magistrate R J. Hays there and
was given 60 days in tbe county hotel,
which is conducted by Sheriff George
Storrar of Deer Lodge county. He was
taken into the main part of the jail
where he was turned loose with a num
ber of other prisoners, who at once pro
ceeded to kangaroo his royal job lots in
the most approved style, notwithstand
ing tbe many entreaties of the noble
lord for clemency, and who claims to be
political exile from his native country.
When Ihe shades of evening fell tbe
“count" sought his humole bunk behind
tußßar* and supposedly went to sleep,
but when morning came and he did not
arise from his downy conch it was sup
posed that he bad over exerted himself
and no notice was taken of the fact for
several hours, until the jailor made his
rounds later in the day, when it was dis
covered that he was in a comatose con
dition.
A physician was sent for in post haste,
and as the •‘count” was stiffened out, it
was supposed that he was either dead or
in a hypnotic condition. He was striped
of his clothing and powerful electrical
batteries were applied, but to no avail.
Hut pins were puaued into his bare iiesh
several inches and not a quiver was
noticed, and Le was finally left to him
self
Twenty hours afterward thp “count”
woke up, stetched himself and camo
back to life. When asked what he
hypnotized himself for ho stated that
he did not enjoy the way the
caiiaole treated him, and he took that
method of gettiug out of their power*
after which he was respected ued looked
up to by the rest of the inmates of the
jail during his period there.
Shortly after his discharge lie was
engaged in carrying the hod at the
Montana hotel. He worked there until
he got a slake, then be went east, where
ha organized his pinsent company.
Things are coming liis way now, for
he is well groomed and sports a big dia
mond and all of his company, three in
number, seem to be in prosperous cir
cumstanees.
LilheNkjold claims to have appeared
before all of the crowned headu of Eu
rope, but- this must be taken with a
grain of salt.
The company goes from here to Malta.

TROUBLE WAS OF
SHORT jWATW
Agitators at Redenback Shearing
Plant Cause Trouble Among
Shearers.
STRIKE LASTED THREE HOURS
Plant Has Most Successful Run
is Now Closed for the
Season.
Last Friday morning three or four
non union men employed at tbe shear
ing plant of M. Redenback on Wayne
creek, caused considerable trouble by
urging the wranglers and other day men
employed there to quit work on account
of a slight grievance that they held
against the union men employed at the
same place.
From tbe accounts brought to the
city it seems that a couple of agitators
got tbe wranglers and other day help to
q uit work in order to compel tbe union
to take them into tbe told, but the trou
ble was only of a short duration and
was of no serious moment at any lime.
When the union sheares were informed
of the matter they held a short oonfer
e nee and decided to fill their own pens
and sacks, until another crew could be
brought from HarlemHo do the outside
work. The men who started all of tbe
the trouble claimed that they would
beat the union, but when they saw bow
t binge were going they gave up quickly
in disgust, and returned to tbeir work,
while Henry Hess, Geo. Miller and John
Kelter's names were added to the unions
already large list.
President Forrest was there the even
ing liefore but was not connected in tbe
above matter nt all, as was also vics
president Simouson and the matter was
happily adjusted in a short time.'
The plant closed down Sunday even
ing as there was no more sheep to abear
in this vicinity.
The sheep shearers uniou will meet in
convention at Butte on July 25tb. The
H arlem union will be represented by R.
G. Winn.
