j. Ii. Parks, Surveyor for Donly county, with
an outfit consisting OF one wagon with baggage
and cOmmisSary, two chainmen, one cook and
myself as Mr.. Parks assistant, comprise the
party. Mr.. Parks will survey for Capt. Good
night, throughout Armstrong and Randall, an d
probably throughout Briscoe counties. We will
follow the celebrated Polo Deero Canyon, said
to be the finest cattle range in the state.
II you take the trouble to trace our route
west from Clarendon in Donly county through
Armstrong into Randall, thence into Briscoc,
you will readily see that we havea big Job be-
fore Us. These three counties are owned and
controlled almost exclusively by Mr.. Adair, of
Ireland, 4 wealthy landholdcr there. He owns
also the south west corner, or about one fourth
of Donly county. lie rerches out and takes in
all the lands he can get hold of us soon as they
come into market, so that no one may inteI-

seen, with very little il any timber. This is a.

The breaks, abrupt andsteep as they are, serve
the good purpose to shelter stock during the
storm.

By the latest advices from Washing
ton President Garfield is slowly but
surely getting better An impres sion
prevails throughout the country that he
is out Of danger but such is not yet
the case, although the physicians soon
hope to pronounce his recovery certain.
He eats, rests and sleeps as well as
could possibly be expected by one so
dangerously wounded. Time and
patience must do the rest to restore
him, and there is very good reason to
hope that he will recover, although the
process Of full restoration to health
will be necessarily slow ard tedious.

Ine expensive Happiness.

The most perfect home l ever
saw was In y little house, into the
sweet incense of whose fires went
no costly things. A thousand dol
lars served for n years's living of
father, mother and three children.
But the mother was the creator of
q home; her relation with her chill
dren WAS the most beautiful | have
ever seen; even dull common
place man was lifted up and ena-
bled to do good work for souls by
the atmosphere which the woman
created; every inmate of the house
involuutarily looked into her face
for the keynote of the day, and it
always rang clear. For from the
rosebud or clover leaf. which, in
spite of her hard housework, she
always found time to put by our
plates at breakfast, down to the
story she had on hand to read in
the evening, there WAS no inter-
mission of her influence. She has
always been my ideal of a mother,
wife and home.maker. If to her
quick brain, loving heart and ex-
quisite face had been added the ap-
piiances of wealth and enlargement
of wider culture, hers would have
been the ideal home. AS 1t was II
was the best I have ever seen.-Me
Alliance.
