THE want Of space this week compels us
to leave over pub fishing an interesting ac-
count by our assistant and special CORES
pendent, w. Fl. Sutherlin, of the proceed
ings OF the Grand Lodge l. O. G.. T., which
was in session at Helena last week. This
session was one of the most important meet
ing OF the Good Templars ever held in the
Territory. The encouragement received last
winter BY the passage of the Sunday liquor
law, seems to have given the leaders such
encouragement as to cause u new life in the
Order. a number of new lodges have been
organized, and the membership shows a
fair increase over last year. We recognize
the value and usefulness of this orgariza-
ton in striving against the great evil of in
temperance, and will cheerfully yield them
space.

THE HOG CROP,

The New York Bulletin of recent date
says: Our readers are aware that we are
no accustomed to place very much reli-
ance upon the statistical estimates of the
Washington department of agriculture,
for, from the nature of the case, they are
subject to bias in the direction of under
statement. In many cases, however, they
are the only data available; and, pro-
vided they are received with due allow
ance, may be useful as a guide, if not as
absolute authority. For this reason, we
present the following estimate of the
number of hogs raised in the United
States for the current season, as COM
pared with last year it will be noticed
that the estimate is confined exclusively
to numbers, no note being taken of
weights, which, SO far as respects the
western product, are generally conceded
to excel those of last year by seven and
half per cent:

CIRCTH Evidence.

A story, illustrating the crushing force
of mere circumstantial evidence, has for
its hero Russian gentleman of distinc-
ton, who, provided with strong and flat
tering recommendations, visited the coin
and medal room of the French national
institution. The coins and medals in
this collection being: to all intents and
purposes, priceless, the curators are COM
PEELED to exercise the very utmost eau
ton as to the admission of strangers, and
to keep a sharp lookout on the visitors
while they are inspecting the rarest of
the numismatic treasures.
The Russian gentleman wished to see
Il medal-say of Constantine Chorus
which was of gold, of large size, and re-
puted to be unique. Suddenly, while
he was bending over it, the medal disap-
pcared, and the foreigner declared that
it had slipped from his hand and fallen
on the floor. After a scrupulous exami-
nation of every chink and Granny in the
room the officials began to doubt the
strangers integrity, and intimated that 1t
won d be necessary to call in detective,
and to lave him searched, whereupon the
gentleman evinced great mental distur-
bance. As this agitation only confirmed the
suspicious of his guilt, IA policeman was
actually summoned but, just as the half
resisting stranger was about to be exposed
to grass personal indignity, an at
tendant cried out that he had found the
medal. The efigy had indeed fallen to
the ground and rolled under one of the
presses. The curators of the collection,
of course, overwhelmed the Russian gen.
tleman with apologies. But they could
not refrain from asking him why he had
exhibited SO great reluctance to be
searched.
For this reason" said the foreigner,

RUR4L SUGGESTIONS.


In starting to lay out and PIT 10 ny n''
A new place, either in t~"i' or co"n'''
ono of the firsi steps to be taken Is U"
.,1on serviceable garden walks.
Thcse should be constructed in such a
way that they are always free from mud
or stagnant water, no matter how much
rain may fall in a given time, or what
the condition of the weather may be at
any season of the year. To attain these
ends, thorough drainage is imperative.
The cheapest and best way to do this is
to dig out the soil the width of the walk,
and to depth of two and half feet.
At this depth begin by laying founda-
ton layer of large stones, fitted closely
together. A second layer, smaller in
size, should follow the first, and so on,
having each succeeding layer of stones
smaller in size than the preceding one,
until the space is filled nearly level with
the surrounding surface. A top coating
of coarse cinders, and these covered with
a few inches in depth of gravel and fine
sand, will complete the job, and will give
a substantial walk, that will always be
dry underfoot. 1t will improve the
walk and the appearance at the same
time, if the clinkers and the sand on the
top are rolled down firmly; and in the
course of a week or two, when the mate
rial settles, it may be found necessary to
add some more gravel and sand, to even
the surface.

BRITISH LANDHOLDERs.-T Domes-
day book of England, compiled by Will
liam the Conqueror in 1885, shows that
the surface of the island at that time was
held by 54,S13 landowners. A new
Domesday book has been prepared, show
ing chat, instead of only 10000 or 10000
landholders, there are now 269,5 who
own more than one acre each, and halt a
million more who own little house and
lot. This, in realm of 100000 of
people, is, of course, no such a showing
as thisrepublic could make, where almost
half the men own land; but it is by no
means as bad as the reformers have rep
resented it. There are strong reasons for
reconstruction, however, in the fact that
the Duke of Devonshire owns $50 square
miles, the Duke of Cleveland 100 square
miles, Lord Derby seventy-five square
miles with an annual income of $780,
OOO), and twenty or thirty others of the
nobility estates ranging from twenty to
seventy square miles each, not one acre in
ten of which is under cultivation. Yet
this hardship is not so severe as it would
at first sight seem, as long as the whole
fertile world is now opening to settlement
and the means Of getting away from any
particular place are first-rate.
