one in Boston did / receive more sym.
pathy and encouragement in my work of
enlightening those left behind me in
your church than from the Rev. DIR. F.
M. Ellis, pastor of fremont Temple.
There are many souls in Boston praying
that God in HIS goodness might send us
q soundly converted priest to carry on
the work in tnat city. =
One Of the first things I did on my re-.
turn home on Monday was to send DIR,
Ross and his nun.wife nice COPY of my
Letters to you. I am sure they will
be pleasant reading for them as they, sit
in their. comfortable home in Yanitop,
looking admiringly at each other. Long
life to the doctor. May the Lord con.
vert him and his wife, and make them
sound christians! And may many more
nuns follow the good example OF Sister
Mary Paul and come out of the converts,
that are living tombs where bodies and
souls are alike buried in darkness and
corruption. Ipresume your church will
now begin fierce war on the Nihiliste
because DR.. Ross was member of that
mysterious organization. / will suggest
to him that he ought to use his influence
with his conferees to induce them tc
turn their attention from killing emper.
ors of Russia to marrying nuns Let
him get them to attack converts, not by
dynamite or bombshells, but by making
love to the inmates, and they will find ii
q much safer and pleasanter business
than plotting treason or assassination.
When the nuns are getting married il
this way, cardinal, you ought;to con
slider your own lonely condition and tr,
to get wife, A sensible one would de
you good, take my word for it.

THE OUTLOOK.

Notwithstanding that this is not
the time of the year when one would
look for lively real estate market
even in the larger cities, it remains an
iudisputed fact that u most healthy
tone prevades the Miles City market,
sales being of daily occurrence; the
property disposed of varying from the
humble dwelling lot of two or three
hundred dollars value to the most val
liable business frontage, and all, cs-
pecially the expensive property, at
prices that show a most healthy APP
preciation in values over year, or
even six months ago. Nothing speaks
30 well for town rs Ia see its own
citizens becoming purchasers of real
estate with every dollar that can he
spared from legitimate uses, and this
is what is going on in Miles City every
day. Enquiry of our real estate agents
discloses the fact that of the many
sales they are making daily the ma
iortty are to our own citizens and the
officers at Fort Keogh, or il 10 out
sidcrs, to some one who has been in
iluenced by the reports of either Of
these CLASSES. Another fact, and "A
peculiar one, is gathered from the
real estate men-which il that while
there are plenty of buyers there are
Very few sellers, and II piece Of prop
erty that is at all desirable rs to loca-
tion or price is generally sold immedi-
ately on being placed OH the market;
this paucity Of offering is easily ex-
planned la the fact that all holders are
willing to remain So Us long as posi-
ble and il able, 10 increase their hold
ing. so that the only property that has
thus far found its way on tie market
has been that of nou-residcnts, who
are unacquainted with the prosperity
and future OF the town, aud of holders
whose property has become cucumber
ID and sale rendered necessary 10
clear up existing liabilities. Two
hundred dolla Is front foot, the price
that was paid last week for twenty-five
foot frontage on Main street expresses
the present value of the property, but

in fact the purchaser would not to-day
TAKE one thousand dollars for his lar
gain. While this state of affairs por-
tends boom, it is not the precursor Of
the evanescent aud ieverish furry that
has afflicted most young towns in this
vicinity in the past two years. Miles

planter. Fne-year-old gardens are
yielding as much as 500 pounds to the
acre of dry tea, fetching good prices on
the London market. Ii is stated that
owing to the large yield, cheaper la

that at the end of this year there will
be about 10000 acres under tea, and
