Mayor Duncan expressed CDnfidence that there would be no further trouble and asserted that the local authorities were well able to care for the situa tion, which the Mayor declared not threatening. The Mayor addressed the following telegram to President- Wilson and the Montana delegation in Congress to night: "There is no condition in Butte at the present time that necessitates or will justify the bringing in of troops. No property interests are menaced and the authorities of this city feel confi dent that they have matters well in hand. The working classes of Butte are law-abiding and sober citizens. The only difficulty that exists at present concerns factional differences inside the miners' union. "The recent disturbances cannot be attributed to responsible members of either of these factions and the re sponsible elements in both factions have organized for the purpose of pre venting further disturbances and have assured the city authorities that they will heartily co-operate -in the pres ervation of peace. "At the present time I am meeting with success In bringing about co operation between responsible repre sentatives of the two factions and am 'sanguine that a basis of agreement can be arrived at that will be Just and equitable to both sides. Under the cir cumstances, to bring in troops ot any sort, whether state or regulars, would be little less than a crime and only could be suggested and desired by persons interested in keeping alive bad feeling." Governor TJra-es Precautions. Governor Stewart after his return to Helena, telegraphed tonight to the Butte Miner as follows: "I gave orders for the militia to be In readiness, and I telegraphed Presi dent Wilson requesting that troops be sent either to Fort Harrison or Fort Missoula, so, if the need arises, the Federal soldiers can be put Into Butte along with the militia. "Everything was quiet in Butte when I left. The stranger passing through would not realize there had been any trouble there. I hope the calmness will continue. I believe it will, but at the same time I feel that contingences should be guarded against "It Is not the danger to the property of the mining companies that I fear if rioting occurs, but to the property of individuals and stores and the general public. If trouble comes damage will be done In the heart of the city. There is no disposition on the part of either faction to Interfere with the mines. Neither the mines nor the mine owners are In any way involved in the present situation, and both elements among the miners are desirous of retaining the good will of the employers." Members Weary of Old I'nlon. The seceders in their statement is sued at midnight reviewed the causes of dissatisfaction In the miners" union. They accused the officers of employing convicts to deport miners who objected to the officers' rulins-s. They also al leged that sick and death benefits have not been paid. Ninety per cent of the local union, according to the seceders, are in the crusade to establish a new organization. The statement closes by saying there is no intention of involving the mine owners in the present trouble. SPEED TO COST $5 MILE Seattle Judge Announces 'Scale for Auto Scorchers. , SEATTLE.

Story Believed -by Many. - "There was of course no devil baby, but such currency did the story have that for six weeks the ordinary activi ties of Hull House were almost sus pended while we explained to hundreds of ignorant Inquirers that it was all a fairy story," said Miss Addams. "Fi nally we placed detectives at work and we found two versions. The Ital ian version was that a Christian girl married an atheist, who. after attack ing his wife, tore down a sacred pic ture and declared that he would rather have a devil in the house than his wife. 'And when a child was born,' ran the story, "lo, it was a devil with horns and hoofs and tall complete.' "The Jewish version differed but little." continued Miss Addams. "It con cerned a father whose wife had borne him seven daughters and on the ap proach of the eighth, he swore he would rather have a devil In the house than another daughter. And the story, like that of the Italians, concluded with the birth of the devil baby. In both cases the frightened parents had brought the Imp to Hull House." Miss Addams explained that the sto ries, like the old fairy stories, origi nated in the primitive minds of women who desired to influence their men folk or their daughters. The sacrilege of the Italian version, or the brutality of the Jewish, the speaker said, entailed the retribution of a devil child. The detectives found that Immigrant moth ers were trying to persuade their daughters against unorthodoxy, or doubtfnl conduct, by threatening them with impish progeny.

POISONED BY THE GRIP The grip is no respecter of persons. No age or station of life is exempt from it. The rip la not a fatal dis ease but it leaves its victim In such a debilitated condition that one ot our foremost medical writers has been led to say, "It Is astonishing the number of people who have been crippled In health for years after an attack." It is a common thing to hear people date various ailments from an attack of in fluenza. The condition of those who have had the grip is one that calls for a tofllo for the blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are especially adapted to meet this need, as they purify and en rlclj the blood, tone up the nerves and give vigor, strength and health to the debilitated system. "The grip left me without any vi tality whatever," says one who has found relief, "and I lost all appetite and ambition. I was reduced In weight and was frequently confined to bed for two days or more. My friends thought I was going Into consumption. I owe my recovery to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and cheerfully recommend them." The details of this case and a chapter on the proper treatment of the grip and its after-effects will be found In the booklet "Building Up the Blood" which will be sent free on re quest by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady.
