Special, only IS PATRIOTIC Current Issue of High School; Publication Is Replete With Excellent Articles. The first number of the Mountaineer for the present school year is just off the press and it is a credit to the abil ity of the pupils of the Butte High I school. It Is called the patriotic num-J ber and the able articles and splendid Illustrations sustain the imposing title, The cover design, consisting of an eagle on a and the frontispiece, are the work of R. Guenther, and both are excellent examples of artistic en- I deavor. I The literary portion of the magazine begins with a poem by Helen Combo, entitled "Rouse Up, America!" and reads as follows: "Rouse up, America! your sons are off to war! Give them such a 'sendoff as they've never had before.

Cheer them on to victory against a foreign foe. Our flag In honor they will bear, to distant lands we know. "Rouse up. America, no longer dream of peace. Your lazy Indecision will not cause the war to cease: Your country calls for sacrifice In measure running o'er, Reserve your right to criticize until the war Is o'er.

"Rouse up, America, awaken from your sleep, In spirit travel with our boys 'across the treaeh'rour deep: Behold them in the trenches vile while wavering you stand, Then give them every aid you can with mind, and heart, and hand. And when our honored flag in vlct'ry they bring. The welcome that we'll give them will make the welkin ring; But victpry is only won stalwart hand and heart, So rouse up, America! Let each one do his part." The special articles are in keeping" with the title of the number patriotic. "The Recruit," by Dorothy Haas; "The Flag That Charlie Never Carried," by Elizabeth Gibbons: and "The Proper Spirit," by Wayne Tripp, all breathe a spirit of Old Glory that is commendable. An innovation on the usual makeup of the magazine is a "Who's Who and Why" page.

The ones mentioned this time are Mr. Shirey and Miss Margaret Boyle, the latter having gone to Pullman college, where she is a member of the educational staff of the Washington Institution. Miss Mollte Allen also is one of the "Who's Who" in this issue of the Mountaineer. More than 300 extra, copies of the number were printed, and all have beeti disposed of.

opr. EtNihed 1780 ft Heating Stove Carriers for This Paper Taken to Show and Then Given the "Eats" and Listen to Some Words of Advice. Fnder the Kuidance of W. V. "Wiegand, circulation manager for the Butte Miner, a party of 90 carriers of Montana's greatest newspaper last night had the time of their lives, and they appeared to realize that the Miner "did the job right." Gathering at the Miner office early in the evening, the boys marched to the People's theater, a happy, carefree, regular crowd of boys.

There they were treated to a splendid vaudeville bill and the actors, entering into the spirit of the occasion and playing to the boys more than to their adult audience, received many a "hand'' for their efforts from the delighted youngsters. "Bring -em down any time you want to." said "Tom" McDonald, manager of the house, after the boys filed happily out of the playhouse. "They'e a great bunch and they are always welcome." From the playhouse the "gang" went to Gamer's, where they were entertained with Just the sort of things to eat hoys like, and they wound up the evening with so many cheers for the Miner that Mr. Wiegand blushed for shame because he didn't have quite enough change left to give the boys another party the same night. The boys were addressed by Miss Lillian Gatlin, a young authoress from California, who told them some things that brought forth laughs and cheers and at times subdued appreciation.

Then it was announced by Mr. Wiegand that there would shortly be started a contest for the carriers to enable them to earn some handy Christmas money, with prizes for the carriers amounting to Of course, Mr. Wiegand, for the good of the service, had to take a little bit of the joy out of the party by a partly serious talk, but he interspersed some comedy and the "gang" stood for It like heroes and cheered their "boss" to the echo when he got through. Here is what Mr. Wiegand said: "The first thing you do In the morning when you receive your papers is to count them and see if you have enough to carry your route.

If you are short, tell Mr. Simon, and he will be only too glad to fix you up. "There are times when due to a olerical error you may receive an order which is on some other carrier's route. I do not wish to excuse any error made by the office, but want to make it possible for every new subscriber to get service. This error does not happen very often, but in case it does with you, and it is a new customer which is sent to you and belongs to some other carrior, but is only a few blocks from your route, carry the paper the first, morning and then notify the office that day.

Do not give the order to the right carrier just because you happen to know who he is, without notifying the office, so that the error is rectified on the office records. "We are getting altogether too many complaints from our subscribers. Listen to this conversation over the phone: Hello! Is this the circulation 'Well, I want to complain about my paper. Didn't come again this a. 'That's too bad.

We have a good carrier on that route someone must have taken it. "No one took the paper. My husband was up; he stopped the hoy. and the carrier told him he was short. If you don't want to send us the paper we will order one that we can "'Well, madam, we will take care of your 'If I miss again I will "Now, boys, circulation work for me is a pleasure, and like any other occupation in life it has Its problems my greatest is service.

Try as i will I don't seem to be able to impress upon my carriers the Importance of delivery. We in the office can secure new subscribers, but it is up to the carriers to hold them. Good delivery Is essential in making a successful circulation department, and without it your department is a failure. Now the kind of carriers we want are the kind that mean business. Why get up so early every morning if you do not mean to deliver your papers? You might just as well stay at home.

There should he enough pride in every carrier to make a success of his frist job. It may be but a stepping stone to your life's work. "How a carrier can sell a paper is beyond me. You wouldn't think of stealing a nickel if it lay here on the table, but in selling a paper you do tho same thing. You are selling something that belongs to someone else.

You know you only get enough papers for your customers, and service for them should be uppermost In your minds. "Now. boys, let's make a successful circulation department, and I promise you if I see you mean business I will see you are well repaid." MUST KEEP SIDEWALKS CLEAN OF "LILY WHITE" I'nless the snow should melt in the meantime, all persons owning property or people renting homes, will be arrested this morning provided their sidewalks are not cleaned off.

2i Coach Stagg put the vtrcity elevn at the University of 'husKo thro.uifh a brisk (ignal drill I ni lernon, preparatory to the clash i tomorrow witn Nortbwttrn Maurice Powers Dies at Hos pital as Result of Blow From; Stone Which Crushed His I Skull Over the Eye. As a result of a drunken quarrel late Monday night Maurice Power aged 35, lies in Duggan's undertaking establishment, dead from a wound in the forehead, said to have been caused by a blow from a rock thrown by Mike Sullivan, while the latter is confined in the county jail awaiting trial. Powers I passed away at St. James' hospital at 7:30 o'clock last evening. The quarrel which resulted in the killing began in the Eagle saloon, where the two men were drinking.

Sullivan did not deny throwing the stone which felled Powers, but stated that the latter was the aggressor and that he acted in self-defense. The two men were at the bar together, according to the story Sullivan told, and after they had had a number of rounds of liquor Powers began to quarrel with Sullivan. The latter left the place and, he says, that Powers followed him. This was about o'clock Tuesday morning. Sullivan states that he walked up Pacific alley to go to his home on Missouri avenue and that when Powers followed him ho picked up a rock and told Powers that if he came any farther he would throw it at him.

Sullivan says that Powers continued to advance and that he then threw the rock and that Powers fell to the ground and that he walked away, leaving Powers lying where he had fallen. Pullivan stated that there was no one else connected with the affair that he knew and that he did not know what became of Powers after he left him lying on the ground in Pacific alley about 20 feet from Main street. Tuesday morning, about o'clock, J. A. Quirk and John Duggan were on their way up Main street in an automobile to attend a call, and as they came up the street they saw the body of a man lying in the road opposite Pacific alley and near the Eagle saloon.

"The lights from the auto showed that the man was covered with blood," said Mr. Quirk last night, "and we stopped the machine and I got out and turned my flashlight on the man to see if he was alive. As I stooped to turn him over I saw his arm move and when I knew he was alive I started to send word for help. A man was standing some distance away and I asked him why he did not go to where the injured man was and he said that he was afraid. I then asked him if he would send word to the emergency hospital or to the sheriff's office and told him what to do and he said that he would and started away.

I presumed that he would attend to the man or at least do what he had said he would do telephone to the sheriff's office, and as we were on an emergency call we went on. thought the man had been hurt in a fight and was simply drunk. I don't ktrnw how long the man we saw presume it was Powers had been there, but he was alive and could move when we were beside him. The man I spoke to could have sent for help then and we would have stayed there at any cost if wa had thought for a minute that the of fleers would not be notified at once." Powers' skull was mashed in over the right eye for about two Inches, it being a. terrible wound.

huuivan is years old, a miner nt the Mountain Con, and lives on Mis souri avenue. He Is not married. Powers was 35 years of age and leaves bls wife and six children, th eldest 13 years old and the youngest 1 year, and resided in Centerville. He was a blacksmith's helper and worked at the Anaconda mine. COSWTO QUINTET Sixth Member of Party Caught in Raid, Charged With Vagrancy, Forfeits Bond.
