Baboons That Were Tired Of Life.

a New York San reporter had an inter
view with a wandering Snowman who
makes living by travelling through the
cauntry exhibiting four boboons. The
reporter asked the old man about his
travels.
"Oh, yes" Mr.. Helms said, I've been
all over the world-1n South America and
Africa. / never went into the interior OF
Africa. but I've travelled with my son and
the balloons on the coast line. We got
the balloons in Africa about three years
ago, and have been exhibiting them ever
since. There are the two small ones. =

Those SehOOlma'ams.
BY ONE OF EN-.


We met at the mountains mid trials indeed;
The trains, they were crowded and late,
For whirlwind of schoolma' ans had swept
through the land,
And the tumult and hurry were great.
They came from the city, the country, the
plain;
They came with their trunks and their bags
They swept down the Notch with rush and
a whirl
Like an army with trumpets and flags.
The long and the short ana the thin and the
fat;
The pallid, the rosy, the pale;
The big and the little. the old and the young
Tore down in a terrible gale.
There were merry ones, sober ones, smiling
and sad;
The flair, fat and forty" the slender;
Sure never was seen at the mountains before
Such host of the feminine gender!
The Fabyan, Crawford, Twin Mountain and
Were crowded from attic to basement;
And still they kept coming by dozens and
Till the landlords were dumb with amaze.
ment
The White Mountain House had surrendered
at SlglL
To the furnishing hordes that fell on it;
And landlords and clerks only gasped in dis
may
At the sight OF each incoming bonnet.
They stacked them like cord-word, by heaps
in the hall:
The parlors were filed to the ceiling,
And cupboards and hat-racks were rented a
par
To those who besought for them kneeling
What wonderful sights at the Summit we saw
What views of the valleys and mountains
| What rocks we have climbed what cascade!
we have seen!
What streams and what magical fountains
And the Flume and the Pool. Can we eve
forget
Those views beyond any description?
! That they'll not be effaced from our mind
and our hearts
Is one present and certain conviction.
Well carry them all as our souveniers home
And bring thera all up with citation
| Whenever a word or an echo recalls
This summer times charming vacation.
! AS the years roll around, let us never forget
The jolly good times we've had here,
And the jolly good party that went to tn
FIume
And partook of its royal good cheer.
And whenever we come to the mountain
again,
If there's room for not even mouse,
Ven hang ourselves mp by the pegs on tn
wall,
And stop at the White Mountain House.

Hon. Hiram Hitchcock has been in

health Of Mr.. A. B. Darling, who is now

his active interest in the firm. On the

happened TO, be rummaging among some
secondhand bottley. One of them
caught his attention. 1T bore the label:

He knows not what mysterious impulse
led him to write to Adds Hays and in
quire whether any of his (Bartlett's) name
were living in Burlington. but he did so
at once, signing himself w. E. Bartlett.
Mr.. Hays received the letter ON Friday.
There are many Ban tletts in and around

at once thought of Tom Bartlett. That
evening Harry Bartlett dropped in at
Hays drug store. Mr.. Hays told him of
the letter, and desired him to repeat the
contents to his (Harry's) father. The
next morning the latter came to see Mr..
Hays. He read the letter, and started ON

Then he called Edward from the labra-

latter explained how he came to write to
Hays, in the hope that some one of his

said, he was dead long ago-killed at
Fair Oaks. His grandmother and others
had always told him so. As to the "W,' y
they had tried to call him Walter and
Willie, but he had insisted that Edward
was his right name, and so he had the
two initials.
Bartlett, with great emotion, told who
he was. The meeting of father and son
was joyous one. Their resemblance to
each other is striking. Yesterday was
not Edwards Sunday off, but the firm
insisted that it should be made such, and
that he should go to Burlington and
meet, for the first time, the six brothers

nor heard of, and that other sister whom
he had supposed to be dead.

ton between here and Keogh The line
has been cut in several places, and as fast
as it is repaired it is'again broken. Last
Wednesday Mr. Sherwood, of the signal
office in this city, started out on horse
back, following the line, to make repairs
between here and Stevenson. He found
the line. cut midway between two poles,
about thirty miles from here, the supposi-
ton being that the frost had contracted
the wire to such an extent that it had
broken. Communication is now extended
to Stevenson, but the line is down in sew
eral places north Of there. In some in
stances several feet of wire has been cut
out, as if done maliciously, or by some
.teamster to make repairs on his wagon. A
heavy fine is attachedto to such proceedings,
and the perpetrators will be held to ac-
count if they can be discovered.

THE EXTENSION.
Letting OF the Ceatract for Building
100 Miles.

100 Miles.
The directors of the Northern Pacific
railroad met in New York Tuesday to
consider the bids for the construction Of
the 200 mile extension west of the Mis-
souri, A great many bids were received.
A New York dispatch says that among
the bidders were numberof persons from
Minnesota, mainly from minneapolis.
Messrs. Dorillus Morrison and George A.
Bracket and Mr.: Ross Of Canada, put in a
bid for the construction OF the whole sec.
ton Of 200 miles. 1t is said that their
proposal is to build the road at the rate Of
about $4,000 per mile, and take ia pay
ment the 5,O00,O acres OF land earned by
the construction Of this 1000 miles.
Messrs Morrison, Bracket and Ross went
over and inspected the proposed line last
summer, and are therefore better posted
than other bidders as to the character Of
the work to be done, and Of the lands they
propose to take in payment. Messrs. u.
G. Shepard, Of St. Paul, and Langdon, Of
Minneapolis, who have been here some
days collecting data put in a bid for cash
Messrs. John Martin, Hobart, Bull and
others of Minneapolis, have also been here
on the same errand. Mr. William u.
Washburn, who has been stopping at the
Fifth Avenue, denies that he is concerned
in any OF the bids. Some parties from
Milwaukee were also among the bidders" :"
A later dispatch says that the contract
has been let to the lowest bidders who are
probably Messrs. Ross, Morrison and
Bracket. The first 100 miles is to be
completed by the 1st OF November next.
A revision of the survey was ordered on
the second 100 miles, after which the con-
tract for building will be let
A still later dispatch, this morning, says
the contract has not been let but that
New York firm will probably get it.
