The Pike Peaks Railroad.

Atramway Is to be built up Pixies Peak
which win overshadow the Mount Washing
ton railway. The plan Is to construct three
Of these tramways, each nearly three miles
long, one beginning at the end of the other.
The first will start from the rear of the iron
spring at the Manitou, and the last will be
terminable in front Of the signal station on
Pixies Peak, at an elevation Of 14,200 feet.
The supports will be made of trees not less
than eight inches in diameter, and about
.twenty-four feet high, braced above and be-
low. On these an endless wire cable Of one
inch bore will revelve, and upon which will
be fastened At intervals of about one hum
dred feet each, large covered armchair, In
which two persons can comfortably sit. This
win be suspended about eight feet from the
ground, and pass at entering and discharging
points along movable platform to load and
unload without stopping. The lower section.
will be propelled by an engine at the lower
end. The center one will be driven by water
power, utilized on the mountain side through
. turbine wheel, and the ,hird by an engine
erected on the summit of the peak.

How the Japanese Catch Whales.


One of the curious and ingenious contriv-
ances shown at the Japanese Fishery Exhi-
bition, which has Just been held at Uyeno,
was set of whale nets and harpeons, with
explanatory pictures. When whales appear
of the coast large boats containing from
twenty to thirty men put off to attack them,
equipped with strong grass nets about ten
yards long, with meshes about yard square.
Eight or ten Of these nets are slightly at
tached, cpd TO end, and when q whale Is
reached they are launched In front OF and
around him. AT the first dart he becomes
entangled aud dashes away, one of the ten
yard lengths OF net breaking of and clinging
round him, His embarrassment soon brings
him again TO the surface, when other nets
are thrown, until at last he becomes 30 ham
pered with them, and 30 harried aud fright
ened, As to be an easy mark for spears and
harpoons.

Tertio-MilleniaI Celebratien.

Santa Fe is making grand preparations for
q tertio-millenial celebration Of the settle
ment Of that town by Europeans. In 1850
the Spanish coneuerors journeyed from the
seacoast into the interior and planted their
religion and their civilization In this spot
then occupied by Pueblo Indians, direct de-
scendants Of the ancient Aztecs. During
the past thiee centuries the "City or the
Holy Faith" has seen the effect Of three civ
Aztec, the Spanish, and last
the progressive American. San Augustine Is
entirely overshadowed in age by this New
Mexican city, and Plymouth Rock, Boston,
New York, and Philadelphia were all born
and grew into life since Catholic priests es-
their first mission In this Territory.
The abode of the Pueblos gave place to the
adobe buildings of the holy fathers, and
these In later times to the architecture of the
present. From the interest manifested, the
will be one OF unusual import
ance. The citizens attempt to represent the
three different epochs In the history Of the
town, and for that purpose portion Of
tribe of Pueblos will be present, also the
American representative Of the Spanlsrd,
and the Anglo-American. No doubt every
sfIort will be made TO make this the grand
event Of the aCIty of the holy Faith"

MONTANA MERITS.
The Husbandman on the Subject OF A gricuI-
turai and Climatic Resources.
HHsbdnfmGD.

We do not care TO extol the merits of Mon
tana as an agricultural country. Already It's
fame in this line has spread far and near Its
beef, mutton, and wool are recognized to be
Of superior quality in all the great markets
of the east, and in few more years its
wheat, oats, barley, aud potatoes will have
established a like worldwide reputation.
nnr wheat il Pronounced by Minneapolis
millers unsurpassed; our barley Is equally
as highly spoken of; while our oats weigh
ferty pounds to the bushel and speak for
themselves. Our vegetables are also excel
lent, aud our small fruits will, when our
fruit orchards become little older, take
high stand. But farmers are coming fast
enough, and We have no desire to see the
entire agricultural area peopled too quick.
But there is class that we feel should, for
their own good, be shown the way to our
Territory. These are the pleasure seekers
the people who " ish TO fly from the heated
cities in search of cool retreat In which TO
spend the heated term. Not only should
pleasure seekers be shown the way to Mon
tana, but the hundreds of bookworms and
house hernts vino are wearing
their lives away in the poisonous al atmosphere
of the cities, and who, when they have q
month Of recreation, know not where to
spend it. The fact in regard to the delight
full summers of our mountains should be
heralded all over the east. Only let the
world know that here in our mountains are
beautiful green valleys where 1t never gets
sultry, where cool brcezes always prevail;
valleys that are free from mosquitoes and
,nats, where warm blankets are required for
comfort even In the hottest nights of sum
ner, and this will become their favorite re-
,ort. We believe it would be better for our
people If the journals of the country would
ievote themselves TO this little more in
Itead of holding out such superior induce
nents TO immigrants. We know That Mon
ana cannot be surpassed in the known
world as summer retreat, and believe it Is
II a few short years destined to become the

JACK IN THE PULPIT.
j. @. WHITTIER.

Under the green trees just over the way,
'Jack-in-the-pulpit breaches to-day.
Squirrel and song-sparrow, high on their
perch,
Hear the sweet lily-bels ringing to church.
Come hear what his reverence rises 70 say,
In his queer little pulpit, this fine Sabbath
day.
Fair is the canopy over him seen,
Painted by Natures hand, black, brown
and green.
Green is his pulpit and green are his bands
In his queer little pulpit the little priest
stands.
In black and gold velvet, so gorgeous to see,
Comes with his bass voice the chorister bee;
Green fingers playing unseen on wierd
Tyres,
Bird voices singing, these are his choirs.
The yiolets are deacons, know by this sign,
The cups that they carry are purple and wine.
The columbines bravely rs sentines stand
On the look out, with all their red trum-
petsin hand.
Meek-faced anemone, dropping and sad,
Great yellow violets smiling out glad,
Buttercups' faces beaming and bright,
Clovers with bonnets, some red and some
white,
Daisies, their fingers half clasped in prayer,
Dandelions, proud of the gold Of their hair.
Innocents, children, guileless and frail
Their meek little faces upturned and pale,
Wildwood geraniums all in their best,
Languidly leaning, in purple gauzs drest,
All are assembled this sweet Sabbath day
To hear what the priest in his pulpit will
say.
Lo! white Indian-pipes on the green MOSES
lie,
Who has been smoking profanely so nigh?
Rebuked by the preacher, the mischief is
stopped,
But the sinners in haste have their little
pipes dropped.
Let the wind with the fragrance of fern and
black birch,
Blow the smell of the smoking clear out of
the church.
So much for the preacher-tbe sermon comes
next.
Shall we tell how he preached it, and where
was the text?
Alas! like too many grown-up folks who
pray,
Our worship in man-builded churches to-
day,
We heard not the preacher expound or dis
cuss;
We looked at the people, and they looked at
us.
We saw all their dresses, their colors and
shapes,
The turn of their bonnets, and the cut Of their
capes,
We heard the wind-organ, the bee and the |
bird;
But from "Jack-in-the-pulpit' we heard |
not word.

Geological Formation of Benton
Benton Record.


We sre In receipt Of letter from an east

formation of the country surrounding Fort
Benton. We cheerfully give the desired in
formation. Where the river has exposed the
different strata we have had an admirable
opportunity to examine them. There are
strong evidences Of volcanic action, as the
upper stratum consists entirely of coal ashes.
Just below this there Is a well defined de-
posit of tin cans which seems to us to plainly
belong to the Iron Age. These cans are OF
an irregular shape and almost defy classih-
cation. We think, however, that they be-
long to the Oyster family. just below we
strike very interesting but puzzling layer
OF dead horses. Opinions vary as to the or
igin of the deposit. Some think that this
country must have been at one time the bed
Of great lnani sea Of dead horses, and af-
.erward raised by volcanic action. The more
generally received opinion, however. Is that
Ibis Is not regular stratum but merely
glacial mcrraine. We have been nnab:e To
trace our researches further, owing to the
high water. When the river recedes wa

POETRY:
A KANSAS NURSERY.
ALICE W. ROLLINS.

"The baby?" we asked, as with mop and
broom
Its mother came to the ranch one day.
"Oh, she's picketed out across the way!
l dare not leave her alone in the room"
And the busy mother looked for a tub,
While we saddled our hories and rode to see
How the lonely baby Jared, while we
Had stolen its mother to sweep and scrub.
For the babies we were accustomed to
Could never have kept their silk and lace
And little be-ribboned hat in place,
With only tree for nurse, we knew.
But this Kansas baby had no hat
And it laughed as If it thought silk and lace
Would have been entirely out of place
On a prairie-or, for the matter of that,
Anywhere else. 1t could only 60
The length of the rope but its little feet
Pattered about where the grass was sweet,
Just as it pleased; and that, you know,
Is more than the city babies do;
For, trundled under the city trees,
They are carried just where the nurses please,
Which ! shouldn't like at ALL should you?
As thought 1t over, 1t seemed to ME
That city darling has less TO hope.
'Picketed out" with invisible rope
TO somewhat less reliable tree!

PROSPECTING.
An Idaho Paper Hits the Nail Square on the
Head.
Advice Which Applies to Montana as Wei
as Idaho Prospectors.


The following article, taken from the
Bellevue Qdaho) Chronicle, will doubtless
be read with a great deal of interest by
many Of our miners and prospectors. It is
q correct view of the matter and doubtless is
the experience of every mining town on the
coast:
There are too many prospects held by men
who wish to realize fortune from the mere
prospect. A man digs hcle In the ground
twelve or fourteen feet in depth and strikes
good deposit Of ore. He lays aside his
shovel and pick, asks an enormous sun for
the evidence of ore, and from that onward
does nothing more on the prospect than the
law requires. His prospect may be good
one, and with development It may be made
paying mine. But it costs thousands of
dollars to develop prospect into a paying
mine, granting the ore holds out. Owners
of prospects must bear the fact in mind that
prospect is not a silver mine. If these
prospective mines could be purchased at
reasonable figures, 1t is thonght that about
one hundred would change hands inside of
one week in the vicinity of Bellevue alone.
Perhaps FIVE men would be put to work upon
each one of these claims. In addition to
those men already working mines, we would
have 400 or 500 more. 1t would not take
long with such force to develop our mines
and start general boom that would benefit |
both business men and mines. About four
years ago, it will be remembered, a great
mining excitement prevailed at Bonanza,
Idaho. Prospectors held valuable prospects,
and many could have realized fair fortunes |
from them; but capitalists could not afford |
% pay extortionate figures for mere pros
poets. The result is, nearly every one of
hose prospectors still owns his claims, which
ire practically worthless, and years OF time
nave been lost in waiting for something to
urn up. The bird in the bush is still at
arge.
