Tho United States Fish commission is about
winding up its present seasons operations ut

From u scientific point Of view thisseason's
work of tho commission has resulted most
successfully, largo collections having been Sc

A Remarkable MARRIAGE.

YANKToN, Dec. 20.-There is great excite
of DR.. Y. sebedtin Ross. a young Russian
physician, and Sister Mary Paul, of the
Catholic Convent Of the Sacred Heart. The
doctor is n determined sort of fellow, and
proposes to stand by his matrimonial rights
in spite Of the church.
OMAHA, December 29.-The particulars of
the secret marriage at Yankton, which
is creating considerable sensation here,
are: The facts leaked out yesterday. The
parties are Sister Mary Paul, of the Convent
Of the Sacred Heart, and DR.. n. Sebedtin
Ross, n prominent physician of Russian birth.
The marriage took place mt the residence OF
George Hoffman, and was performed by u
Congregationalist minister, Rev. Jos. Ward.
Ross was physician at the convent, and at
tended Sister Paul when she was injured by
fall several months ago. Affection sprang
up between them, which ripened into love.
Their love was bitterly opposed by the
Mother Superior, and the Sisters generally,
the Bishop and others. Threats were made
to break off the engagement even If violence
had to be resorted to. The doctor and his
affianced, however, defed them all, and con-
cluded to bring affairs to crisis by marriage.
A mutual friend sent an invitation to Sister
Paul yesterday to come to her house,
and soon the convent carriage appeared with
Sister Mary Paul, who went into the house,
and thence into an adjoining house, where
the marriage ceremony was performed. She
then returned to the convent in the carriage.
The affair became known this morning, aud
caused great excitement among the Catholics
and citizens generally. Threats were made,
but Ross defed them all, and stood by his
wife. This evening she left the convent and
Joined her husband. Her right name is Mary
verns, and she was a prominent, beloved and
valuable member of the Sisterhood. She is
very intelligent, has winning manners, a
beautiful face and elegant figure. 1t was
through her efforts that the convent and the
Bishops residence were built at Yankton.
Her husband is a man of nerve, an excellent
physician, and for five years was a Siberian
exile on account Of being Russian nihilist.

The Chief Industry.
Husbdndu an.

During the summer of 1875, while we had
the matter of publishing an agricultural
newspaper in Montana under advisement, we
mentioned the project to friend of ours who
was at that time in the newspaper business.
He appeared to think favorably of it, but q
few days later, after he had canvassed Con-
federate gulch and the Missouri valley he
wrote us from Indian Creek, saying that it
would not do; that he did not think the en-
terprise would succeed; that he could get ten
subscribers in a mining camp to every one in
the agricultural districts; that the miners had
money and paid their subscription, while the
farmers had no money and were never ready
to pay. These are not the exact words, but
IL is the substance ofthe remarks. Such were
the honest convictions of friend who had
experience, and is only one among the manv
disoouragements we received. We refer to
this now simply to illustrate what q vast
change has come upon the country. To-day
every newspaper in the land is proud of its
agricultural patronage, and there is no class
of subscribers in the Territory among whom
the percentage of loss is less, or who are
more punctual in paying. In fact they have
become the backbone of the country. Their
check is honored in every banking house of
the Territory, and their flocks and herds and
broad acres constitute the principal wealth
of the country. Any journal in the land
may now be proud of their support, and
proud of advocating their cause. The thou
sands of pounds Of wool, beef and mutton
that now moves annually toward the sea-
board from our Territory, will soon be fol-
lowed by tons of grain, and ere another de-
cade has passed we may expect to see the list
OF commodities produced here for market
beyond our borders greatly augmented. We
would not say anything disparaging to min
ing. 1t is great and prosperous industry,
capable Of sustaining great and prosperous
State. But the idea that agriculture is eclip-
sed by it, that it is only a secondary interest,
or that it does not form the groundwork of a
great and permanent wealth such as broad
acres of rich soil and miles of luxuriant pas
lures alone can vouchsafe, is buried in the
oblivion of the past, and the farmer and
stockgrower, which is but another name for
progressive husbandry, lead the van.

The Fighting Ford Brothers.

BosToY, Dec 30.-During the lecture to-
night Of the Ford brothers, the slayers of
Jessie James, in one of the subsidiary halls
of the Horticultural buildings, fremont
street, an exciting scene occurred. A large
audience was present. Some rough loudly
offered the opinion that the "Ford brothers
were no good" This reflection was resented
by the brothers, who drew their revolvers,
and brandishing them, leaped from the stage
into the midst of the audience. The people
stampeded Immediately, and such was their
haste that many sought egress through the
windows, crashing sashes to facilitate their
exit. The hall is on the ground floor, and the
windows open directly on the street. Police
man Robinson, who heard the crash Of the
glass and saw the people running from the
hall, made his way into the building and
seized the Ford brothers, who had assaulted
several people with the butts Of their revolt
vers. The officer proposed to take them to
the station, and they desired to buckle on
their rsvolvers, avowing fear of their hives.
The officer would not permit this and started
with them under arrest, but the proprietor Of
the show interfered, setting forth that his en-
terprisr would be financial failure ifthc Ford
brothers were not allowed to stay and finish
according TO the programme, and finally pre-
vailed upon the officer to allowthe perform
ance to proceed; not, however, until the lat
ter had taken the names of seven persons
assaulted, as witnesses, and exacted guar
guarantee that the brothers shonid
appear when wanted by the police.
The remark Of the officer, when
seizing the brothers, was: "You may
be the Ford brothers, or tie James brothers,
but you can't drink blood in Boston" 1t is
UNDERWOOD that the friends of the assaulted
parties are laying for the brothers, and more
trouble IL rxuected

Poultry Raising in Montana.
Husbdndnall.

We have known a number of experiments
scale, every one of which, in the end, re-
suited in failure. They were reasonably
successful for the first year or two, but after
that time were Improbable, and the fowls in
most cases all, or nearly all, died. The
reasons for these failures are very obvious.
These poultry yards were run on the common
farmers plan, with one room for five or six
hundred birds, which is mistake. Poultry
on the farm in Montana is, when attended
to, an immense success. 1t is true fowls and
eggs arc high IN our markets, but one reason
of this is that our farmers consider market
ing eggs and chickens too small business
and indulge these luxuries on their own
tables. And there is no reason why poultry
on large scale cannot be made a success
also. But they must be kept in small colonies
and provided with separate runs. By this
method they can be kept as healthy as If each
flock was on separate farm. To get all the
profit there is in such business, it will be
necessary for the grower to raise his own
grain, peas, roots, cabbage, ETC., to feed his
bird on, so that all the money that is taken
in will be profit on his own labor. The
houses for such an experiment must be made
warm, and would be better If provided with
two rooms, for two reasons, one Of which is
that they must have a very warm place for
winter, which may be reasonably dark, and
the other is that they lay best when they can
60 into dark, obscure place, away from the
feeding apartment of the rest of the flock.
The feeding room sho1ld have a glass front
facing the south. In this should be kent a
dust box, gravel, bone-dust, cabbage turnips,
beets, tetc., to which they can have free
access all the time during the winter months.
The water should have lattice work over it
to prevent it becoming filthy, and should be
changed often. III any one will undertake
poultry. growing on q large scale, and will
observe these rules, they cannot fail to make
1t pay, and pay well; for eggs, chickens,
ducks and turkeys will always bring good
price in our markets. We regard 1t, next to
dairying, the best business person can 20
into with small capital.

A Champion of Protection.

William D. Kelley was born In Philadel-
pbia, sixty eight years ago. After receiving
agood education he entered printing Office
Is copy-holder to the proof-reader. This
proving uncongenial work, he was appren-
sliced to q jeweler and served the seven years
required by custom in those times. His first
engagement as journeyman was in Boston,
where he employed his leisure hours in lit
erary work. Returning to Philadelphia he
read law and was admitted to the bar. He
practiced with ability and success, and after
wards held the position of judge of the Court
of Common Pleas with credit for some years.
Mr.. Kelley had distinguished himself before
the war by his antagonism to slavery and his
zeal for the imposition of high protective
tariff. he was a member of the Thirty
seventh Congress, elected in November,
1850, the choice of his constituency by rea-
son of his anti.slavery sentiments, and has
continued TO represent the same district ever
since. He served as a member of the COM
mttee on naval affairs in the Thirty-eighth
Congress and Is now Chairman of the ways
and means committee of the Forty-seventh
Congress.
Mr.. Kelley's strenuous advocacy of high
tariff, which he believes to be advantageous
to American workmen, goes so far as to give
him the leadership of those who would abol-
ish the internal revenue system in preference
to making any reduction in the duties
charged upon imports. His present position
is entirely in accord with his views from be-
fore the time of his first election. Mr.. Kel-
ley is an unassuming, earnest and honest
man, against whose sincerity and honor not
a word has ever been brought. He is gen.
orally spoken of either as "Judge" or "Pig-
Iron" Kelley, aud makes no difficulty of his
being addressed by either of these titles.

A Disorderly Town,

PETERSBURG, Dec. 25.-Tbe city officers
appointed by the Readjustor Council OH the
LIST of July were paid off to-day in full. The
amount required was $4,000. The city Of
ficers appointed by the Funders' Council on
on the 2Sth of June, and declared by the
Court Of Appeals to have been illegally
elected, have been on duty since the first of
July and will petition the City Council to
pay them for the services rendered, as they
are now in absolute want. Drunkenness
and general disorder on the streets are more
prevalent than for years. During a street
fight between whites and negroes o-day,
pistols were drawn aud one or two shots ex-
changed. John 5. Cook, n we'll known citi-
zen, while passing the vicinity, was shot
through the thigh. Some police officers,
attempting to quell The disturbances, were
dubbed and felled 10 the ground. Several
other street fights also occurred. Anumber
of arrests were made during the day. The
mayor and police are on the streets to night
endeavoring to prevent further breaches Of
the peace.

Whittier's First Poem.

The first poem published by Whittier, and
the first which he Is known to have written,
was piece Of blank verse entitled "The
Deity" which was printed in 1926 in a news
paper called the Free Press, then recently
started by William Lloyd Garrison in New
buryport. Elated by the success Of his first
venture, the boy of nineteen sent other
poems, all anonymous, however, to the
editor, whose good taste had been
so signally demonstrated. They attracted
the attention of Garrison so strongly that he
inquired of the postman who 1t was that was
sending him letters from East Haverhill.
The postman said that It was farmers son
named Whittier, whereupon Garrison deci-
ded to ride over on horseback, distance of
fifteen miles, and see his contributor. The
acquaintance thus begun ripened into init.
mate friendship.

THE oufLELEss EsTHETE.


NEW YORK, Dec. 2s-Police Captain Will
liams has verified the story that Oscar Wilde
was "taken in" by bunko-steerers. The cap
tain says that two weeks ago Oscar, while
walking up Broadway, near Union square,
was accostsd by hatchstfaced young man,
who introduced himself rs the SON of Drexel,
the banker, and as he had seen the poet In
his fathers Office, he took the liberty, etc.
Wilde was delighted. He had been in
Drexers banking office, but did not remem-
Der the young maj. The two went to res
taurant, where "Mr. Drexep ate a. though
hungry. Wilde remembered this, and not
with an esthetic smile, later in the day, when
informed by Captain Williams that "Mr.
DrexeP was Hungry Joe,"a noted buRko-
steerer. During the meal "Mr. Drexel" men
toned that he had won lottery prize, and
suggested that the poet accompany him to
get the money. Oscar did so. They went to
. house on Fifteenth or Seventeeth street,
where several men were throwing dice.
"Drexep threw for the poet and won quite
sum. Oscar was then persuaded to join, and
of course began to lose. First 1t was So, then
$40, until, becoming excited over the game,
he played until he lost in all s1O6. He signed
on the Madison-squars bank for the amount,
rushed into the street, jumped into cab, and
drove rapidly to the bank, where he stopped
payment. The check was later returned to
Captain Williams. In the Rogues' Gallery
Oscar picked out the picture of his friend
and companion, " Mr. Drexsl," alias "Hun-
cry joe"

Ten Million Acres OF Oysters.
Pail Mall Gazette,

The joy caused in gastroRomic epicuresn
circles by NJ. Olssn's paper on "Ths North
Sea Fisheries" and the great oyster dIssov-
cries there, will be shared by the whole oy-
ster-eating world. Two hundred miles OF
oyster beds, thirty to seventy miles wide,
that is TO say 10,00O,000 acres Of splendid
oysters within easy distance of the British
coast, is discovery compared to which all
those Of Stanley and Livingstone sink into
insigni6cancs. One curious feature about 1t Is
that the oysters lie at a depth of twenty one
fathoms, thus disposing summarily of the
prevalent idea that oysters can only be raised
successfully in shallow water. The man
who invents new dish, according to some,
the man who plants tree, according to the
Aohammedans, deserves we'll of mankind j.;
but what Is the reward of a man who dis
covers 10000, 600 acres of oysters.
