Find Gold.
Montana pioneers who were at Fort
Benton in the earliest days recall an
Indian named Litue Dog, who was the
big chief of the Inchans around those
parts in the days when white men first
came up the Missouri. Little Dog was
not a bad Indian in the days when the
first prospectors for gold were coming
into Montana; in fact, none of the In-
dians around Fort Benton gave much
trouble to the whites, says the Ana-
conda Standard.
When the post at Fort Benton was
opened up and white people came more
numesously into the country, Little Dog
frequently saw these ‘‘brass buttons
without eyes,” and learned of their
value. They were gold five-dollar
pieces. He told in Fort Benton about
— the box of ‘“eyeless buttons” he had
concealed on the banks of the Snake
river, and many were the expeditions
organized for the purpose of finding this
hidden box of gold pieces. For some
unexplained reason Little Dog would
not himself accompany any of these ex-
peditions, but roughly described the
point of concealment as a rock promon-
tory overlooking the Snake river “close
to the foaming waters.” So far as
known the box of gold pieces was nevee
founa.
Another friendly Indian of those
times was a half-breed known as Cut
Lip Jack. He spoke a little English
and was a noted character for years
prior to 1873. Old-timers believe that
he was the real discoverer of gold and
silver in the Belt mountains. It is re-
lated that in 1862 a party of Salmon
river miners arrived in Fort Benton ox
their way back to the states. There
were less than a dozen of them who
crosed the mountains by way of the Nez
Perce trail from Elk City and the Bitter
Root. At Fort Benton they happened
to meet Jack and showed hm some of
the gold specimens they had brought
along.
Affer looking at the gold Jack told
them he knew of a place to the south-
west where there was a whole lot of
rock with yellow spots. He pointed to
a mountain range off to thejsoutheast.
He also said that a short distance from
Benton toward the south there was
plenty of white mineral similar to the
specimens of silver shown him. He was
questioned closely in regard to these
matters, and said it was about two
days’ ride to the white metal. The white
men distrusted him, and were afraid
to follow him according to his proposal.
Poubtless Cut Lip Jack was the original
discoverer of the Barker mine.

Maid, do you recall the place

They have sought a moment's rest?

Maid, do you recall where you
Sat and watched the varied hue
Of the waters and the skies?
Did you know that in your eyes
Shone each tint of sky and stream?
Ev'ry evanescent gleam
Of the wild uncanny glen
Shone from out your eyes again.
They were there, the sky's own blue,
Little flecks of sunshine, too;
Ev'ry deep and grumbling pool,
Umber-shaded nooks and cool,
Bilver-banded swaying birch,
And the thrushes bending perch;
All were there; each vale and steep,
All the torrents rush and leap!
Thy were there—I know they were—
Ev-ry slope of pine and fir;
Ev'ry foam-white waterfall,
For I saw them, saw them all!
And I never looked away
From your dancing eyes that day!
All the world, my world, dear,
In the deeps of yeur blue eyes!

WHAT LUCINDA MEANT.
y do I think she likes me best?
She never told me so, and I
Have never put her to the test;
Perhaps I'll ask her by and by.
Why should she stand and watch, you sea
When I come down the maple lane?
Why should she wave her hand to me
And tap her fingers on the. pane?
Why should she reach her hands to take
; My overcoat and hat, you know?
‘Why should she pass the frosted cake
And archly say: “I made it, Joe?"
And then, why should she always call
Me by my first name? Don’t you see
Such things as these, and others, all
Are signs Lucinda takes to me?
Why does she lean so close, I say,
There in the parlor where we sit
After the rest have gone away,
With the lamp wick turned down a biti
And why, I wonder, does she rest
Her hand a moment on my knee?
Sometime I'll put her to the test
And ask her if she cares for me
To-night when I arose to go
She went and stood beside the door,
And said: ‘You're ‘always welcome, Joe,”
A thing she’s often said before. :
So now I guess it is all right;
Next Sunday I will know, you see,
Just what Lucinda meant to-night
When her hand waved a kiss to me,

In the Same Boat.
Feeling that it was his duty to re-
monstrate with one of his clergy for
attending a fox hunt, the bishop had
an interview with him.
“Well, your lordship,” the offender
replied, “I really do not see that there
is any more harm in hunting than in
going to a ball.”
“lI presume,” answered his lordship,
“that you refer to my name having
been down among those who were
present at Mrs. De Vaux’s ball, but I
qessure you [I was never ence in the
same room as the danced throughout
the whole evening.”
“That, my lord, is exactly my posi
pn. During the hunt I was never in
same field as the hounds.”

OZONE IN LAUNDRY WORK.
Establishment in Paris Uses It for
Disinfecting All Clothes Up-
on Their Arrival,
Ozone, a very material and necessary
part of the atmosphere, has been found
of greatest value as a disinfectant in
some of the laundries of Paris. It has |
been introduced under the auspices of :
the city government. A location in the |
St. Honore market was given for the
purpose and the entire plant will revert
to the corporation at the expiration of |
twenty-five years, during which period |
the entire works are to be open to in-
spection by delegates and students of
hygienic methods of laundering. The
ozone in this institution is used for the
purpose of disinfecting the bundles ot
clothing immediately upon their arrival
at the laundry. )
The, method is such that articles pass
rapidly through the various processet
from the first reception to the final de-
livery. The electric current destined
for lighting the establishment and for
the “ozoners,” which are actuated by
eight motors, is developed by two verti-
cal engines of 55 horse-power each
coupled directly to two dynamos of 3%
kilowatts each, a total of 74 kilowatts.
The “ozoners’” are located in a special
room expressly guarded against possi-
ble intrusion, because of the danger
from the high potentials utilized for the
work.
A package of soiled apparel on arriv-
ing is at once marked with a designating
tag, which remains attached through
the various processes up to delivery
The first move after tagging is to throw
the bundles into one of the several huge
tanks. This being completed, the covet
is hermetically sealed and the ozone
saturated steam is turned on. At the
expiration of about twenty-five minutes
the tank or cylinder is discharged from
the bottom, and the contents are now
freed from all possible chance of infec:
tion from the microbes of smallpox
scarlatina, tuberculosis, etc., so that the
employes of the laundry can manipulate
the articles free from all fear of con:
tagion.
How a Quarter of a Doliar Came to Be
Known as “Two Bitg”=—
‘fhe “Thrip.”
“Did you ever hear the expression ‘two
bits’ used as an equivalent for a quar-
ter of a dollar?” asked a New Yorker of
a reporter for the New York Mail and
Express. ‘The term is commonly used
in the south and west. Not one person in
1,000 even of those who habitually use
the term knows its origin.
“Even as late as the close of the
eighteenth century the silver coinage of
the United States had not superseded
the Spanish ‘milled’ dollar in the west
and south. Fractional currency was
particularly scarce and to obtain this
the Spanish ‘milled’ dollar was cut up to
make change. Halves and quarters, of
course, suggested their own names, but
when the quarters were cut in two the
word ‘eighth’ was discarded for ‘bit,’ a
small slug having the value of 121%
cents. Many curio collectors have these
slugs In their possession, although, of
course, they have long since gone out of
use as currency.
“So with ‘thrip,’ used in New Orleans
and the vicinity as an equivalent for the
nickel or five-cent piece. ‘Thrip’ is
merely an abreviation of ‘threepence,’
the coin of that value once in general
use, representing about the same
amount of money as a five-cent piece.”
BOTH WRONG.
Missing Time Between Greenwich
and Paris Found at Last After
Painstaking Investigations,
The investigations concerning the
longitude differences between Greenwich
and Paris have now been completed.
The work has been of a particularly ar-
duous and protracted nature, necessitat-
ing enormous calculations, says the Sci-
entific American.
Altogether, the English and French
observers have carried out 230 observa-
tions, equivalent to 80 nights’ work each.
Two English and two French observers
have been engaged upon the task. The
