Gail for q Pioneer Ass 0ciatiOn OF
Montana.

Mr., John Russell Wilson, of Dillon, at the re.
quest of q large number of the pioneers OF
Montana, has issued . call to all pioneers OF
Montana to meet in Helena and form an or
Ranizatiun. 1t is thought that the society will
be productive of good to the Territory. All
who were living within the limits OF the Terri
tory of Montana, at the date Of the creation of
the Territory, May rs, 1864, are invited to
attend q meeting to he held at the Court House.
IL the City of Helena, the cepital Of the Terri
tory, ON Wednesday, September 10, 1854, at 10
O'Clock a. M, for the purpose of organizing this
association. The circular calling this meeting
states that it is not to be organized In opposition
or hostility TO the Historical society, but that its
scope and purpose will be radically different
from that corporation. The circular states that
while 1t is probable that memberships will be
permitted to those reaching Montana at
a cate more recent than May Goth,
1874, vet 1t is better In order to avoid
confusion and mistakes to limit the first call
to those who were residing here at that time.
It will doubtless be . most int rest ng meeting,
As the old pioneers tell sgain their experiences
of the early days. 1t is to be hoped that each
pioneer will come to the meeting with . paper
giving an account OF some experience o, his
while o der was being evolved from chaos and
strong men were engaged in q LIE 8 rugg!e to
s.tspllsh laws for the protection Of their lives
and property.
Pioneers who desire to attend this meeting
will please send their n .mes to MI. Charles
Rumley At Helena.

STREAK OF LUCK.

We have heard of q man who had
s2,OOO year left him because he was
civil to an infirm old lady in church,
finding the hymns for her, setting
her hass"ck etc. He did not know
her name, but she took care to ascer-
tain his, aud when she died he found
that she had %bequeathed to him the
hulk OF her property las a reward for
his patient Kindness" a clergyman
of our acquaintance obtained y living
Of good value from q baronet in
Norfolk, for no other reason than that
he was the only curate within ten
miles round who had not applied for

clergyman whom we know got q still
better living for having refused pre-
ferment offere 10 him under circum~
stances derogatOry to his dignity.
He was q fair singer, and a vulgar
plutocrat, who had invited him TO
dinner, promised to give him a living
1t he would sing a comic song at
dessert. The quiet rebuke which the
young clergyman administered made
the p%lutOcrat ashamed of himself, so
that the next day he proffered the
living with a letter of apology; but
theliving was refused, the clergyman
stating thatit would be inpossible for
him 10 forget circumstances under
which it was first rendered. This
was the more honorable, as the
clergyman was very badly off.
Another patron hearing of what he
had done, appointed him to a benetice |
as a testimony of bis admiration. We
may conclude with the story of a
man who was suddenly made rich
because of his great stupidity. He
was The only dull man in a bright

The Laxham Collision.

LONDON, July 2s.-The survivors
of the steamship Laxham. which
collided with the Spanish steamer
Gjon, report a thick heavy fog the
evening of the collision. The Lsx-
ham was going slow. Both steamers
were sounding their whistles. The
Gljon struck the Laxham amidship.
The latter was nearly cut asunder.
The funnel fell and the steampipe
burst. The chief engineer was hOrri-
bly, scalded. The most of the Lax
ham crew boarded the Gijon. Capt.
Latham tied his wife and child to
hlmself and all three were hauled
aboard the Gijon. The Laxham
sunk in twenty minutes after the
collision. Not long after the Gijon
began to settle q terrible confusion
prevailed. Tie captain stood with
u revolver in his hand, but was un-
able to keep order. Passengers and
crew were fighting for ,helr lives.
Boats were lowered and filled to the
gunwales, but could not accommo-
date half the people. Those FORUM
ate enough to secure places in then
were obliged to keep out the others
with knives. The Gijon sank bow
first. The quarter deck was crowded
with men and women, the captain
and officers standing on the bridge.
1t is estimated $50 persons persisted.

JAIL BREAK.
Attempt OF Prisoners to Escape
From the Penitentiary.

Last Friday a prisoner Slipped up close to
Warden Cree, at the penitentiary, and tolc him
that about thirty Of the prisoners were going to
make a break to get out, but did not tell who
they were or when or how. The warden did
not call the han in to talk with him for fear the
prisoners who were striking for liberty might
suspect the man and in the break deal him a
foul blow. Thinking the prisoners were going
to try and by a stroke of force overpower the
guards and 70 effect Their escape. Mr.. Creel
sent down town and got some halfa dozen men
to come I'D with shot gun and stationed them
in different parts Of the enclosure. The next
dsy the discovery was made that the escape was
TO be through q tunnel that the prisoners had
been for scme time making from a house out
side the main building and in which. because
the prison u overcrowded. s me twenty-five or
thirty prisoners have been confined. The house
is bnilt of logs and has a log floor. The floor Is
raised about three feet from the ground. A log
was taken ND from the floor at night and care
fully nut back in position during the day. The
dirt from the tunnel was scattered under mo
roor and no one of the guards suspected the
work. The tunnel had been dug soue hftv-1ve
feet and a few more feet would have extended
the tunnel beyond the outside fence. As soon
as this should be done thirty of the prisoners ex
pected to ! ave. This attempt IL mott to be won
dered at The government should at once order
the penitentiary to be enlarged. IT is SIMPLY
impossible tn keen the prisoners al inside the
stone walls. It is almost foolhardy for the
guards t, attempt to keep 20 MANY men In such
an unsaf. enclosure. The guards are few. the
prison overcrowded and a determined effort on
the part of the prisoners would be likely to sue
coed,

the articles used by man for food, and
find them to contain the chemical
elements of the soil in which they

in short, all cereals and vegetables
are unfit for use.
l find that to grow these articles

farmer mixes with the soil guano,
stable manure, dead fish and the con-
tents of vaults, and to think of using

that an insane patient wanted some attention.
A man who had been splitting VOID and doing

suddenly left his work, taken the axe and
run into a room of one of the houses, locked the
door and was crying bitterly. Nj. Bodley, by

out of him, that he thought some one was after
him to kill him; that a man had given another
$4,000 to kill him. Bodley assured the man of
protection ana locked him up ia the Jail where
the man seemed to feel safe. To-day Mr.. Bod

The Picnic Yesterday

The picnic yesterday to the Big Hole Canyon
was q success as far Us numbers We're concerned.
Between three and four hundred persons
attended 1t was gotten up at first by the
Chautauqua Literary aud Scientific circle and
was afterward joined by the Episcopal Sunday
school and invited guests. The larger portion
of the company got off the cars at the upper cid
of tue canyon, Others, however, who wished to
fish or pick berries, went down a mile or tw ,
further. It was a free and easy affair and no
ceremony was INDUCED in. Everybody set
himself Immediately to the work nearest at
hand and that was to enjoy himself. Some
went to climbing over the mountains, some to
fishing, some to picking berries, some to
playing ball and some to slit NJ under a tree
and fighting flies and mosquitoes. There were
whatever he undertook to 10. In due time
lunch was announ ed and each party spread
their lunch aud invited whomsoever of their
friends they chose to eat with them. That
was a time of solid enjoyment, and when they
had done eating the VIII lie crowd felt
solid. No serious accident happened.
Two young gentlemen undertook to take
a boat ride with their lady loves. But being
unskilled in the use of the boat and in the swift
current of the Big Hole river the boat was up>et.
Fortunately for the crew and passengers the
water was shallow, and no greater harm was
done than to give the party q good ducking.
Some say that the boat did not upset, but that
the ladies fell out and the young men then up
set tie boat to give some excuse to the ladies
for their mishap. But that theory is too thin
IL 1t possible that " young ladies could have
their heads 50 turned oy young men as to de-
'iberately fall out of q skiff and risk drowning!
impossible. The ladies doubtless did turn tho
heads OF those young men, and both the young
mems heads being turned the anne way cap
the boat and the party narrowly escaped
drowning. However, the party came all safely
back home, have OF dry clothes and are nc
worse for the accident. When the cars came
up to the depot yesterday evening with the
picnickers there were a great number of tired
looking faces aud many were the expressions
Of relief that thy had gotten back and threats
won't l go to bed early tonight Taking
altogether the party had . very enjoyable
