Captain of Engineers James B. Quin
has made his annual report on the inn
provement of the Yellowstone and Mis-
souri, rivers. To show the importance Of
this work he states that 81, OoO, 900 pounds
of freight were shipped by boat above
Bismarck last year; an amount that would
be increased beyond speculation with an
improved channel. The amount apent
in improving the Missouri was S37 ,9l9,
and $395 900 more is asked for. On the
Yellowstone river Improvements were
confined to the vicinity Of Glendive,
Montana. and consisted in building dams
to close chutes and confinc the water to
the main channel. The resulting scour
has caused a material deepening of the
channel OH the hitherto difficult shoals.
1t is alleged that similar work below
Glendive would give short river haul
to Fort Buford instead of 800 miles up
the stream haul upon the difficult river,
as at present. 1t is believed that $780,.
600 can be profitably expended in the
continuation of this work during the
next fiscal year. During the past year
$lO,SS6 was expended.

After the teachers institute at White
Sulphur Springs had finished business, a
party of thirty-five- ladies and gentlemen,
including the teachers, made trip out to
the.big cave in that vicinity, and had
quite an adventure, which the Husband
man describes as follows: During the
stay of the visitors in the lower regions,
a fire kindled by some thoughtless youths
filled the upper rooms with dense
smoke. When tired of admiring the
crystal beauties of Helen's parlor, and
tracing the multitudinous windings Of the
northwest passage, the adventures re-
turned to the upper rooms to find their
egress almost cut off by smoke. So dense
was it the light refused to penetrate the
gloom and no trace of daylight was WISH
BILE at the entrance. Several of the ladies |
grew very faint before the fresh air could
be reached and considerable excitement
prevailed for some minutes. Judge |
Hedges, who was in the lead of one party |
missed the way, went into an unfre-
quented passage, and was quite bewild-
cred when found by the guide. Some of
the ladies, however, exhibited reinarka-
ble endurance, and came forth from the
adventure without experiencing any ill |
effects from it, except that all were tired
and worn as if they had made hard |
days journey.
