1t Is estimated that ten brakcmen arc
killed each day on the railroads in tbs
country, and the number killed and in
jured each year is said to be about l5,0oc.
Railroad men say that only about twenty.
fve per cent Of freight train brakcmen
die natural death, and the average life
Of the brakeman, sfter he goes on tho
road, is only ten years. Some insurance
companies will not issue policies ON the
lives Of freight train brakemen, but will
insure passenger brakemen at higher
than the usual rates. But although rail-
roading is such dangerous avocation,
and is not very well paid, the officers Of
the roads throughout the country are con-
stantly besieged by persons who are anx-
ious for the position Of brakeman. Ii Is
an employment that seems to have q pecu-
liar charm for many.

At about 8 o'clock Thursday .. m, hra
broke out in the upper stsry Of james
Lees saloon building, on Front street, and
burned the saloon building, wsrehouse
and dwelling attached. The flames wers
6rst discovered BY John PowerA who wa
standing in the door Of the Fort Tottsn
barn. which is in the rear Of tho saloon.
He rushed to Nj. Lees house and told
them thebuilding was on fire. Mike Smith
Was eating breakfast and Dave McMath
was Just entering the saloon building from
the house. Mr.. Lees hurrisdly dressed
aud removed his family to safety. In the
meantime the few who had arrived tried
to get some of the saloon fixtures out, but
the high wind had given the flames 50
lmuch Roadway that only the cigar show
case and stuffed eagle were saved from
the room. Adjoining the saloon was the

Coed Words for the North Side.

Those of our citizens who predicted
about this time last year that the north
side of Tie track would develop very lit
tic during the year to come, do uot appear
TO have had good grounds upon which to
base fulfillment Of their prophecy. To
the contrary they can sec very clearly that
they were very much mistaken No por-
ton of the village can show greater de-
ve]opment during the past twelve months
than this very locality. Nearly every bus
mess house on the west end of Front
street has been moved up to line, and the
old sidewalk taken up and replaced with
new material Aside from these cxpen-
slve improvements several new business
houses have been erected which will COM
pare favorably with any in the village.
Fifth avenue has experienced some won
derful changes, among which none ap-
pear more conspicuous than Lloyd's brick
block, Klaus warehouse and hall. the
Fifth Ave Hotel, Waller 4 Carr's stahle
and Judge Steinbach's furniture store.
The rapid development of these business
streets have been supplemented by streets
further back to which there has been add
ed a goodly number Of new and costly
residences. The Alert has ever had the
utmost confidence in the development Of
this portion Of our beautiful little city,
and is still Of the opinion that the time il
not far distant when property on the north
side will be hard to get at any price.

On Mouse River.

Bismarck Tribune.
A letter was received last evening from
! Mr.. Hackett, dated, ssMouth of Wintung
river, on Mouse river, Dec. 49," which
states substantially: s.Our party arrived
at Mouse river last Tuesday. We came
due north from the head Of Turtle Greek,
and struck Mouse river about twenty
miles west Of here. We have been travel
ing down the river for the past few days
taking observations. To-day We met q
party Of white men with load Of fish
bound for Fort Stevenson. Tho country
more than meets my expectation; it is
indeed, wonderful. The river is skirted
With heavy timber-oak, ash, elm and
birch. The bottoms arc covered with
grass that teams can hardly get through.
The bottom at this point is about four
miles wide and mostly covered with heavy
timber. The first half breed cabin in
this bottom has not bcen occupied for
years fhc prairie land ii fine with IN
excellent growth Of buffalo grass 1t is
as fine country a. ever saw. This il
the stock country of the world; bar no
place. The bottom will cut from four to
five tons Of hay to the acre. All the stock
in Montana and Dakota could winter in
this portion of Mouse river alone We
leave to-day for point six miles below
here, where think 10 an excellent loca-
ton for town. The river 10 = beautiful
stream; and nc doubt. il navigable for
small crafts to the Asslnaboine. The fish
beats anything | ever heard Of We cut
hole through the ice this
afternoon and caught one
hundred pounds Of fish IN about an
hour. We had simply to drop our hook
and out would come tho finest plckerel
ranging in weight from three to ton
pounds. Yesterday We had rod squirrel |
pie; the woods are full of them. By actual
measurement the ice in the river is ten |
inches thick. The stream is fed by nu- |
merous springs on either side. We will
start back in about three weeks, and will |
bring wagon load of fish, The weather
Is delightful, and oil the settlers and trap
oers assert that the winters are usually
mild. The country needs to be seen to be
appreciated, but what am telling you
ire the facts

A Paradise for Householders.

Utopia, from the rate-payers' point of
view, has at length been discovered. 1t
is small town, situate in the very heart
of the rich and fruitful Rhenish Palatin-
ate, and its brief, unromantic name is
Schopp. Recently the municipality of
this ideal burg, finding its receipts
largely in excess of expenditures, re-
solved to dispose of the cash balance at
its command by presenting to every
householder within the civic precincts
the handy little sum of f2 los. A SIM
liar repartition of surplus income took
place few years ago, upon which still
more propitious occasion each rate-pay-
ing citizen received bonus of "a from
temporaries, the Franktatrte and Koln-
tscter Zettungen, in recording the above
mentioned facts, with justifable pride
and exultation, point out that the solu-
ton of life's most difficult problem
how to eat your cake and have it, too
has obviously been attained in Schopp.
That is the place, they observe. in which
the heart that is humble may hope to
achieve perfect contentment. The CO.
logne Gazette concludes its reference to
this fiscal paradise. 1.-THE happiest spot
upon our earth,' with an exhortation to
its readers, couched in terms as stirring
as they are terse. 1t runs as follows:
"Up and away to schopp!' This ire
pressible ''cri du cgur'' will doubtles
find an echo in many breast through
out the length and breadth of the F'a-
therland. London Telegraph.

In a Gypsy Camp.

A band of gypsies have camp be-
tween Stewards junction and Mineola
on Long Island. They live in their
wagons, which resemble circus vans.
and are in reality comfortable little
houses upon wheels. They have win
dows which work in sashes, and are
shaded at night by curtains. There is
an attractive appearance to the camp,
The horses are sleek and well kept, and
they were all feeding yesterday. There
were dogs sleeping in the sun. and as
a stranger entered the camp they lazily
opened one eye and then went ON with
their day dreams. The wagons were in
circle about a fire, where there was
a pot boiling and sending out most
delicious aroma of cooking meets and
vegetables. Under the shade of an elm
tree sat pretty gypsy maiden of pure
Egyptian features. She was dressed in
bright colors, and was playing with
two milk-white kittens which were hay-
ing sport upon her lap.
There are twenty,t two adults in the
camp, eight females and fourteen males.
