TH n. N AsEIO2 AL PARK

{ .
We are advised from different source that
yInring the coming season the number of
tourists, pleasure seekers and nyalrds who
Will visit the Wonderland will be great. ~
large majority ofttnese travellers will, of
course, pass through Bozeman. as this is by
far the most practicable and pleasant ronte.
Wearc glad 10 know that one lease has been
taken IN The Park, but we are tain to believe
That but very few more will be applied for.
Tor tile reason that a ten years lea is not by
any means long enough. Roads are not yet
made, and the appropriation of $40. 900 Tor a
wagon road is an insignificant sum for SUCH
an undertaking. Large appropriations are.
needed, not only tor the improvement. but
also for preserving the beauties of this the
ioyeliest and only great Park i'm the world.
Will the Government make the improvements
requisite at an early day, or will they find in
few years that they have an Elephant On
their hanls. Time will tell.
"a 4 HE Unicago Tribune draws this obvious
conclusion from the recent acts Of Congress !;
Nlhe oralfHriIished by the results of the
recent Congressional ADMINISTRATIONS seems to
be that thcre>is nothing criminal'in cheating
uoye' nment, whether National or State.
Out Of all the cases of fraud, corruption. and
swiindlirg which have been proven not one
has been p'ulisbed. The only case which
promises TO meet with a penalty is that of
Judge Delahay, who is to be inpeached for
infoxication. No msterialcnarge of fraud
or corruption is made against him. We
may, therefore, accept it as the Congressional
s9la standard Of morality that drunke Illness is
crime crime !; fraud and corruption are not, Let
illsese thankful thank that the Congress standard
does not prevail outside Of the Capitol.

"'TWas NV MOther's.o

A company Of poor children, who had
been gathered out of the alleys and gar
rets of the city, were preparing for their
departure to the new and distant homes
in the West. just before the time for the
starting of the cars, one of the boys was
noticed aside from the others, and appar-
emily very busy with cast-off garment.
The superintendent stepped up to him
and found that he was cutting small
piece out of the patched lining. 1t proved
to be his old jacket, which, having been
replaced by a new one, had been thrown
away. There was no time to be lost
"Come, John, come p said the superin-
tendent "What are you going to do with
that old piece of calico ?''
"Please, SIR" said John, 81 am cutting
it to take with me. My DEAR dead moth
er put the lining into this old jacket for
me. This was piece of her dress, and it
is all shall have to remember her by"
And as the poor boy thought of that moth
er's love, and of the sad death bed scene
in the old garret where she died he cover
ed his face with his hands and sobbed as
If his heart would break.
But the train was about leaving, and
John thrust the little piece of calico into
his bosom "to remember his mother BY"
hurried into car, and was soon far away
from the place where lie had seen SO much
sorrow.
Many an eye has moistened as the sto-
ry of this orphan boy has been told, and
many heart prayed that the God of the
fatherless and motherless would be his
friend. He loved his mother, and we can
not but believe that he obeyed her and was
a faithful child.
VIII our little readers, whose parents
are yet spared to them, always try to show
their love by cheerful obedience, knowing
this is pleasing to the Lord ? Win the
boys, especially always be affectionate and

A Good Joke.

Il Ill PERKINS tells this One Satur-
~ day recently, Philadelphia lawyer,
MIR. Il, rode down to Wall street, in
Broadway omnibus. At Stuart's beau
tiful young lady got in and handed fifty
cents to the distinguished attorney, re-
questing him to please hand it to the driver.
"With pleasure" said Mr.. H, at
the same time passing the fifty cents up
through the hole to the driver.
The driver made the change, handing
forty cents back to Mr.. H---,who qui-
city put it away in his vest pocket, and
went on reading a moving machine brief.
Then all was silence.
Soon the young lady asked him about
the Brooklyn ferry. Mr.. Il replied
to the question with courtesy.
"Do the boats run from Wall street to
Astoria9" continued the young lady.
81 don't know, madame" replied Mr..
petulantly "Tm not resident Of
New York I'm Philadelphian."
"Ah yes" (then silence.)
Mr.. H--again buried himself in his
brief while the young lady a-hemed, and
asked him what the fare was in New York
stages.
"Why, ten cents, madame-ten cents"
"But l gave you fifty cents to give to
the driver" interrupted the young lady,
"and-"
"Didn't l return your change? 1t is
inn Ia l,., 1.
dropping his brief and pulling the strap
violently "why the dickens don't you give
the lady her change-forty cents, sir forty
cents"
81 did give her the change I gave forty
cents to you, and you put it in your own
pocket" shouted back the driver.
" To me?" said Mr.. Il, feeling in
his pocket, from which his fingers brought
out four ten cent notes. "Gracious good
ness, madame! beg ten thousand pardons;
but-but-"
"Oh, never mind" said the lady, eye
ing him suspiciously, "you know lady in
New York has to look out for herself. It's
no mattor-t wasn't the forty cents
Goodness gracious ! my dear woman
and then the stage stopped, and the young
lady tripped away.
Mr.. Il has been SO excited about
the affair that he went back to Philadelphia
a ruined man. He even forgot to take a
$40, 900 fee which Ketchum was to pay
him in moving machine case. He says
he'd rather pay $4,000 than let the Phil
adelphia fellows get hold of the story, for
fear they would be asking him what he did
with that poor woman's forty cents.

" No Night There

Toward the close of a long summer day,
which had flooded the earth with beauty
and song, a lovely boy, wearied with his
very pleasures, after silent thought, said
with tone of sadness, "Motber, am SO
tired; and it says in the Bible, There shall
be no night there. What shall l do in
heaven when am tired ?'
We think that the oldest of us find it
difficult to comprehend an eternal day of
unwearied activity. The home of the re-
deemed is called rest; this must mean
simply freedom from weariness. We know
of no descriptive worlds of heaven which
include more than these: "There shall be
no night there.'

A Wife for Eight Dollars.

novel spectacle was recently witnessed
in Detroit, Michigan. About fortnight
since widow named Gathner met an ac-
quaintance on the street, and said that she
was in destitute cond ition, and had no
means of keeping starvation and death
from her door. The gentleman thus ad-
dressed looked at the woman moment, and
replied that she was young and goodlook-
ing enough to marry again. TO this Mrs.
Gathner answered that she had no objec-
tion to such an arrangement, but she had,
thus far, been unable to find husband.
"I'll sell you at auction" replied the gen.
tleman, " and the only proviso shall be that
the highest bidder shall court you for a
week, in order that you may know him.
The woman consented, and the sale was
announced. The auctioneer stated to the
crowd which assembled that he had known
the woman for years, and that he knew her
to be Industrious and of good character,
and then opened the sale. Bidding was
lively, and everybody in great humor. In
the crowd was an old bachelor, named
Joslyn, and ne was the only one who took
the joke as a real fact. He jumped the
bidding from 40 cents to $5, and then rails
ed to IS. The auctioneer called on that
figure, and the widow was knocked down.,
Joslyn handed her the money, agreed to
the proviso, and left the crowd, none of
whom had thought that marriage would
take place. One did take place, however,
after the terms of the proviso had been
faithfully carried out. And while 1t is
quite certain that Joslyn has found a good
helpmeet, the bridegroom's friends say
that he is SOBER steady, good-tempered
and well off.
