:. understanding Mems Natures.

About mid afternoon yesterday citi- zen who pulls down the scales at 196 pounds descended the first flight of stairs beyond the Post Office in just the same manner that a bag of oats would have chosen, and when he brought up at the foot he was in no frame of mind to chip in anything for the heather in Africa. The first citizen who arrived on the spot knew what his duty required of him on such an occasion, and he smilingly remarked
 "I don't believe you can improve on the old wayl
 The second citi zen passing was in a hurry, but he kne ew that he must halt and inquire:
 "Like that any better than coming down the way the rest of us do ["
 The third eitis len had business at the Post Office, but he turned aside, cleared his throat, and remarked
 Evidently fell down stairs Curious how it sets the blood to circulating Some of you had better see if his nose is broken-goodby
 There was fourth spectator, and he slowly entered the doorway, bent over the victim, and remarked
 "Id have given dollar to see him come down He's one of the sort who bump every stair!'
 The fifth man was about to add his mite when the victim rose up. His elbows were skinned, his nose parked, his coat torn, and his back sand -papered the whole length, but he was man who had travelled. He knew that teverybody in the crowd was hoping to see him jump up and down and shake his fists, and paw the air, and to hear him de clare that he would lick all the men who could be packed in te acre lot, and therefore he brought a sweet smile to his face, lifted his hat like perfect gen. tleman, and limped up stairs with the bland remark
 "Stubbed my toe as I came in the door, you knb bw, and came near falling in heap. - Detroit Free Pyess. te/

GOING TO THE COUNTRY,

l am going to the country. like the country. There is no school there. I like any place where there is no school. But there is grass in the country. Grass is more pleasant than bricks and not near so hot. Bricks are red and grass Is green. I would rather lay on the grass under the trees than on hard bench and say spelling. There are moro boys in town than in the country I wish all the boys were in the country. l would rather play with boys than with ducks and geese, and COWS and dogs. Boys can talk which dogs can't. I would rather play with things that can talk. There are grapes in the country. I like grapes, better than Arithmetic even. If l had Mrs. c. to give ne grapes in- stead of sums think I would like her better. So goodbye.

Miss Caldwell is making a successful can
vas of Benton for the Encyclopedia Brit
tanica. Her persuasive powers are of a high
order, which is fully shown by the fact that
she has already secured names of several old
bachelors who have no more use for the En-
cyclopedia than they would for a Chinese
dictionary. In a few instances too, Bene-
diets have fallen prey to her soft, pleading
voice and eloquent eyes, mi not a few wives

Of the country's backbone; her hills have a
majesty all their own, but she turns her face
from the weary sagebrush of this great basin.
To the tops of her Hottest hills the green
grass grows luxuriantly, and she has pastur-
age for a world of stock. Her revenue from
her focks and herds is steadily swelling,
and when the limit in that respect is to be
reached, no imam can at present estimate.
But it is from her mines that Montana is
soon to become famous. They have but
waited for the locomotive. The iron genii is
to do the bidding Of capital, and to light the
burdens Of labor, and there will soon come
down echoes from those solemn heights
which will make the arteries of
all over the continent throb faster, and a pill
grimage will wend its way northward as
vast as that which yearly follows the trail to
Mecca. The climate is a stubborn one. It

Map Of the Barker Belt Park and Mon
tana Mineral Districts:

Prof. o. G. Morrison has just completed a
large typographical map of the mineral dis
tricts, and yesterday delivered the same to
Col. Clendenin, by whom it was purchased.
The map is four feet by two, in whole, and
is divided into sections, the largest being a
map of all the districts together, showing
their contiguity with each other, the ranges
of mountains, parks and streams. The other
sections, four in number, are devoted separate
ly to each district-the Barker, Belt Park,
Montana and Judith-on which the various
leads, their relative positions and the direc-
tons in which they run are shown. The
leads in each district are numbered on the
MAPS, with marginal notes giving the names
of the leads according to No. The Professor
possesses a thorough and scientific knowledge
of the country comprised within the limits
Of the maps, and the work is pronounced by
all who have seen it unusually correct. 1t is
the result of seven weeks Of almost c%ontinu-
Gus work. Col. Clendenin will send the map
to Rand, McNally & Co., Chicago, to be
Autographed, and accompanying it will be a
letter press description of the districts and
leads as developed to date.
