"GettinS Along,

There are different ways of getting along,
as progress is sometimes called in this world.
1t does not always mean making Il large sum
of money, or being a great man for people to
look at with wonder. Leaving off a bad habit
for good one is getting along; to be clean
and tidy, instead of dirty and disorderly, is
getting along; to be careful and saving, in
stead of thoughtless and extrayagant, is get
ting along; to be active and industrious, in
stead of idle and lazy, is getting along, to
work as diligently in the masters absence as
in his presence, is getting along; in short,
when we see any one properly attentive to
his duties, persevering through difficulties to
gain such KNOWLEDGE as will be of use to HIM
self and others, offering good example to
his relatives and acquaintances, We may be
sure that he is getting along in the world.
Money is very useful article in its way, but
it is possible to get along with but small
means; for it is a great mistake to suppose
that we must wait for great deal of money
before we can do anything. Perseverance is
often better than full purse Many people
fall behind, or miss the way altogether, be-
cause they do no perceive the simple and
abundant means of getting along which
surround them on every side; and it very
often happens that these means are aids
which can be had for the taking, but which
money could not purchase

Helena, Montana, Thursday, March 50, 1885,

would be greatly increased and its business
greatly diminished. 1t is extremely improba-
BILE that the company would run the road at a
heavy loss-about as improbable as that they
would run it, pay their own expenses. and
give the gross proceeds to Montana.
Railroads, like other business, will stop
running when it don't pay. Unquestionably
the road would close up in winter, like the
present road to Bismarck; and as summer
road it would be Of but little benefit to Mon
tana, as its rates of freight could not be less
than our present river rates.
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, we cannot dis
guise from ourselves the fact, that while as a
continental road the Northern Pacific would
be grand success, carrying the commerce
of empires across the continent, yet, as a
fragmentarY road, connecting Montana with
Duluth, it is the most melancholy failure that
ever strewed the wilderness with ruin-for a
thousand miles. 1t will cost fifty millions Of
dollars to finish the road, and thus make it a
success. AS to whether it will ever be fin
ished depends upon circumstances, over which
Montana has no control. One thing is GER
tain, our subsidy will not in any way effect
the result. 1t will only link our future to
the fortunes of the enterprise and bury us
amid its ruins, if it proves failure.

Letter 70 Louisville COurier-J JOurnall
Nothing more dramatic was ever witness
ed than the scene when General Belknap was
called before the committee to hear Mr.
Marsh's statement read. He sat through the
ordeal suffering the tortures of shame, dis
grace and exposure. His heart was wrung
by the statements alluding to his dead wife
and baby. In his anguish he could only &C.

in voice that brought tears to the eyes of
the strong men, ''Gentlemen, draw and quart

with me, but spare my wife" Then, as he
left the room, he turned and, seizing Mr..
Clymer's hand, said, ''Good-bye ,Clymer."
They had been classmates 1t had been his
intention then to commit suicide. The night
before, in an interview with Judge Mont
gomery Blair, he stated his purpose of end
ing the matter by death. Fortunately such
tragedy was prevented, and after all this
trouble he and his devoted wife may live a
higher life in an humber sphere.

In Bishop Harris lecture on his late jour-
ney around the world, he says, among other
things, that the people of China believe that
the eclipse of the moon is caused by the
attempts of a huge monster to swallow it,
and the only way to prevent it is to make
loud noise. and all over the kingdom this
immense noise is kept up until the eclipse is
over. AS the monster has never swallowed
the moon, this noise-making is believed TO be
a sure preventive,

Ben DeBar's embarrassment.

A New York correspondent Of the Chica.
90 Tribune tells the following story OF our
old neighbor:
tew days ago Ben DeBar, Florence and
Sothern visited Mrs. Barney Williams at
her country residence at Bath, Long Island
Ben made preparations to r.main all night,
but SOthern and Florence carried only
small satcnel containing bathing garments,
exc. After ENJOYING roll and tumble in
the salt water, Florence placed his bundle
OF bathing clothes, towels, etc, in the hall
rack, and enjoyed himself the rest of the
DAY according as he willed. DeBar did not
6aIne, but placed his satchel alongside of
Billy's, and the party whiled away Sunday
afternoon to suit themselves. Florence
and SOthern returned in the evening.
and DeBar remained. Ben, YOU know,
is healthy and portly fellow, and
when he retired for the night began
to look for his robe de nuit. He opened his
sstchel and took out Billy Florence's bath
ing drawers! His anger was immense. He
tried to console himself, but the night air
was cool and Ben has horror OF chilis, and
he is stickler for conventionalities, So he
dressed himself and hunted up Mrs. VIII
liams and stated the case. She was half
consumed with laughter, and offered TO
lend him one of her own, but it wouldn't
fit, 90 she improvised q sack for the coca.
sion by sewing up two sheets and leaving
openings for the head and arms. Florence
was unconscious Of the change in the con-
tents of the satchel. De Bar swears he
NEW al about it. Billy denies it. but they
ire both morally certain that Sothern
