D. Lamont has been selected BY the W..
G.. T. u. to drill the members of the Cold
Water army in the manual Of arms. The
first meeting will be held at the NJ E.
church, next Saturday evening, at seven
O'Clock. With Miss Mile Coffin at the
head and Mr. Lamont as aid we can safely
predict an enthusiastic corps for Dillon.
Last Sunday afternoon row was had in
the camp Of Jim Anderson, about three
miles above town. Jim, who is driving a
band of sheep from Boise valley, Idaho,
to Miles City, had some trouble with his
herder Hot words soon came to hard
blows with cudgels. When the clubs wore
out fists came into play and they punched
away until separated by John Zalz'nan, of
Dillon, who drove up in the midst of the
exercise. Anderson received bad cut on
the head from the feather edge of club.
AS Jim was around town in the evening,
looking for new herder, or driver, it is
supposed he had no more use for his pugil-
istic herder.
A citizen of Montana after reading the
daily report of disasters in the east, re-
marked, allow thankful we should feel for
having cast our lot in Montana, where cy-
clones, billiards, floods, epidemics and sun
strokes are unknown. Look at our chill
dren, the pictures of health and happiness,
playing out of doors all through our mild
winters with as much comtQrt and safety as
in summer, while their fellows on the pra-
ries east of Montana are housed up by biz
yards, breeding disease and death, and the
mortality among the children of the cas-
tern cities is something frightful to contem
plate. When we consider that with our
other blessings we have all the conditions
that 60 to insure prosperity to every indus
tr;ous citizen, we may we'll congratulate
ourselves that we didn't stop short of Mon
tana when we started to seek homes in the
west"

Summer. Ewes.

Fair summer ewes, as twilight lies
On the dim earth and distant skies,
And moon and stars with silver light
Tremble upon the steps of night,
Expression in rapture dies.
Evenings warm odors round me rise,
Sweet as if blown from Paradise,
Or fairy gardens of delight,
Fair summer ewes
And yet, half to my own surprise,
feel the tears o'erfow mine eyes,
For absent friends We call to sight,
Tones, hopes, that made existence bright,
That now are only memories,
Fair summer ewes!

The "Wise Women" of Serbia.

Doctors do not flourish in Serbia. Up
to Il very recent date, their place was
supplied by ''wise women called 'ba-
bas." These ''babas" profess to have an
intuitive knowledge of medical plants;
but that intelligent being, the Serbian
peasant, placed much less trust in their
medical man than in their magical skill.
Their performance in this line was re-
markable, and their rustic patients had
every faith in it, The most commonly
fatal diseases in Serbia are consumption
and congestion of the lungs. The staple
remedy for the latter ailment is to admin
lister to the patient three apples grown
on the same bough. If after eating these
apples, which are supposed to have some
mysterious connection with the Trinity,
the patient feels no better, then, but not
till then, the wise woman adopts more
vigorous measures. The unfortunate
malade is laid on the ground on his
stomach, the wise woman scatters salt
over him, and marches round him numb
ling cabalistic words. This seems to be
kind of exorcism, and would indicate
belief that the illness is caused by witch
craft or demonical possession.

" Liberty EnIiyhtening the World. ="

According to the design of NJ Barthol-
di, the French eminent sculptor tho
colossal statue, representing the figure of
Liberty Enlightening the World, :"
crowned with stars, and holding in her
uplifted hand II torch which diffuses
broad rays of light, will be $50 feet high.
The foundation of the pedestal upon
which seventy men are at work in New
York harbor, will rise IS feet above low
water mark. The pedestal itself, which
is to be constructed Of granite, will be
40 feet square at the base, and ia high.
The entire elevation will thus make an
imposing object, higher than any of the
colossal statues of antiquity The Colos-
sus of Rhodes would appear as pigmy
beside it. 1t will be higher, in fact, than
the enormous towers of Brooklyn bridge,
and as lofty as the steeple of Trinity
church. As for the statue, it has been
completed and is composed of beaten
copper Two sets could dance a quadrille
inside of the head. This new wonder of
the world, which is to be the gift of the
French to the Americans, now only awaits
fitting pedestal upon winch to rest.
This the American people are expected to
supply and to take national pride in so
doing. The cost of the statue TO the
French was $50, 900 francs; the esti
mated cost of the pedestal and its base is
$3.50, OOO.- Chicago NearS.

mill of two rolls Is set behind the first
three and takes from them the crushed

mill of two rolls Is set behind the first
three and takes from them the crushed
cane or "bagasse," as it is called.
The largest rolls in the State are seven
feet long by fortytwo inches in diane
ter for the first three, while the second
two are of the same length by forty
four inches in diameter; all of solid iron
and held together by enormous bolts
screwed down by levers ten feet long.
Even with this tremendous pressure
nearly twenty per cent. of juice escapes
in the bagassc, while on lighter rolls the
loss is from third to nearly one-half.
Upon the problem of avoiding this enor-
nous waste much money and thought
have been expended.
Passing from the mill, the juice is first
strained and then agitated in close box
in contact with the fumes of burning
sulphur by which it is bleached Thence
it passes into large settling tanks, where
it receives a small portion of lime water.
Up to this point the process is the same
on all plantations, large or small, but the
after treatment varies in different places
Under the old fashioned "opcn kettle"
system the juice is boiled over wood
fire in shallow wooden kettles, three or
four of them constitute a "battery." The
juice is dipped from one to another as it
decreases in bulk, until it reaches the
smallest and hottest kettle, when it boils
until ready to crystalline, when it is
drawn off into wooden tanks and allowed
to remain several days, by which time it
is almost solid. 1t is then shovcled into
hogsheads having holes in the bottom,
through which the molasscs drains. At
the end of ten days further the molasscs
ceases to drip, and the sugar, of dirty,
yellow color, is ready for the market.
On threc-quarters of the plantations
sugar is made in this primitive way, but
as these are the smallest in capacity,
their proportion of the entire crop is
much less. OF the remaining planters
onc-half retain the open kettle, but sup
plement them with pans heated by steam
for the later stages of evaporation; and
few of these possess vacuum pans for
the final concentration. Less than one
hundred have complete Grains, - in which
all the boiling is done by steam. These
''rcfncrs," as they are called, in addition
to the crop raised upon their own land,
often buy cane of their smaller neigh
bors. They employ the most skilled la
Dor, and there is great though kindly
rivalry between tlrcm rs to the biggest
yield and the best quality of sugar and
to hear group Of these gentlemen talk
ing on the piazza of the ST. Charles hotel
after the crop is off, one would think
they had all just returned from fishing
excursion.-A orleans Picdypnc.

HEALTH HINTS.

To make modelling clay, knead dry
clay with glycerine.
Equal parts of gum myrrh, gum arabic
and bloodroot is good remedy for
catarrh.
To cure rheumatic pains battle the
parts affected with water in which pota
toes have been boiled, as hot as can be
borne, just before going to bed.
A pain in the back between the shout
ders, or at the waist, may be greatly
soothed if rubbed for half hour with
any liniment, or with piece of red fan
mel.
Delicate children who cannot go out
during the winter should be given a sun
bath every bright day. Let them play in
a sunny room, and when the sun comes
in the strongest let them sit for an hour
or so where it can shine upon them. Sun
shine is a necessary element in a child's
life, both physically and figuratively.
