A Medium Directed.

At Augusta, Georgia, the spirtualists
are agitated over the discovery, through
medium of $4,000 Of lost bonds and
and securities, the disappearance of which
has for months been MYSTERY. Several
months ago Mrs Fannie Smith, leaving
a fortune Of 500, 900, died. She had pre-
viously missed $4,000, but the matter
was kept comparatively quiet. After her
death, William Painter, who had assum-
ed the enthusiastically, published a
list of the lost securities, describing them
in detail. The spirtualists interested
themselves in the search, and prom
inent medium here claimed to have Sc
cured a clue. In All alleged conversation
with the spirit of the departed lady it
was learned that her death had been
fastened by the loss of the money, but
since her death she had learned that the
securities were secreted in piece Of old
mating in stock Of dry goods. A search
was instituted and the treasure was found
the securities corresponding exactly with
those which had been advertised by the
administrators.

Farming Utensils.

The Northern Pacific is destined to be
a great factor in developing the country
all the way across the continent, not
only in the way Of transporting emf
grants but also in moving across the con-
tinent the farming utensils necessary for
the proper cultivation of the soil. These
are no less important in the great work
of developing the country than are emil
grants. The threshers, and mowers, the
harvesters and binders, are among the
most potent civilizers that we have.
These are going out upon the broad prai-
ries in Dakota and farther west very rap
idly. Yesterday the largest consignment
of threshers and engines ever sent to one
consignee or firm was forwarded to J. A.
johnson & Co., of Fargo, over the North
ern Pacific. This consignment filled is
cars. Every day, and by almost every
train, one. two or three cars 60 out filled
with these civilizers. Butyesterday was
the great day, when eighteen cars heavi-
ly loaded with threshers and engines
went out all together.-St. Paul Globe.
Montana is not behind in the demand
and use of these potent civilizers, and we
can confidently assert that for area of
farming land Montana uses more of the
improved kinds of machinery than any
land under the sun.
The Sisters of Charity, at Helena, are
inviting sealed proposals for the erection
of "a new hospital. The new hospital is
to be thirtv-eight feet wide, fifty feet
long and three stores high, and will be
built to accommodate about one hundred
and twenty persons.

The Marine National bank and Grant
4 Ward, kindred New York concerns in
which Gen. Grant and his sons are large
ly interested. have failed, the obligations
OF the bank at the clearing house being
s55O,O0O. President Fish, of the bank, is
a member of Grant & Ward, and the lat
ter is director of the bank. Mr.. Fish
specialized largely and not wisely in real
estate, and loaned from the bank to the
firm to the amount of $4,000. The cur
rent hope is that the bank will resume,
as it had a surplus of 100000 and had
weathered the times of 1870 and 1873.
The city Of New York has deposit of
81 ,OOO,0 GOO ia the Marine bank, and Long
Island City also deposited there, and is
now looking second bankruptcy in the
face. Grant & Ward consisted of Buck"
Grant and Ferdinand Ward, two dashing
spectators, who have been buying real
estate in large amounts for year past,
besides going into schemes that made
older heads dizzy. Young Grant was
boosted into financial prominence by his
engagement to Miss Bonanza Flood, and
his marriage to ex-senator Chaffee's
daughter. The failure has not affected
Wall street visibly, and Jay Gould was
able to say last evening that the future
looked better now than it did week ago.

From gentleman from Miles City we
learn that the prospects are indicative
that all the former officials of Custer

in connection with the discharge of their
duties are likely to be freed. Cox, Ger
IRISH and Garland are already virtually
discharged, and no new indictments
against them will be permitted. Hub
bell is under indictment, but is not likely
to be held for trial. Steve Taylor is in
Jail, but will probably be released on bail

The failure of Mr.. James r. Keene has
SO visible and tremendously practical a
moral that 1t is hardly worth while to
wax very didactic over it. After paying
out more than $500 600 in cash between
Monday and Thursday, on Thursday
comes an item that there is no cash to
meet, and the lord of "Puts" and Calls"
is bankrupt, and must so announce
himself. The only moral in the fall of
this last Wall street king is the stereo-
typed moral that in Wall street, as at the
tables where the representatives of the
hazard are not stocks and futures, but
ivory Chips" in the long run the player
must leave his capital, and in Wall street
jargon lie down. Such has been the his
tory of every liking" of Wall street. Of
the successive Safeguarding kings in
the last twenty years-Drew, Fisk, Stock
well, Gould and Keene-all except Could
have been bankrupted; and the non
bankruptcy of Gould, to those he left be-
hind him, has been worse than the COM
bined bankruptcy of the other four. Mr..
Keene is said to have brought no less
than twelve millions of dollars into New
York city. The ordinary mortal with
that amount of money would consider
life of Sardanapulan ease and Sybarite
luxury within his grasp. But Mr.. Keene
unfortunately for either, brought one
more item in his assets that, left to itself,
was sure, sooner or later, to eat up the
twelve millions. The other item was a
gamblers appetite. He played against
Wall street, the country's grain trade,
AGAINST Western Union, the railroads,
the Standard Oil company, and then with
all Wall street again. At ordinary gam
bling-the gambling that is done with
ivory chips-his twelve millions would
have lasted many years, possibly his
whole lifetime. But with such "chips
as these, it has lasted him just eleven
years, not of ease or pleasure, but Of
teverish and fitful excitement; and there
is new king in Wall street, whose name
is not Keene. And yet, as there is moth
ing novel or peculiar in Mr. Keen's
career, so there is nothing in it that will
deter single man from repeating the
experience to the letter, or that will diff
fer from the end of that single man,
whoever he may be. In that case, just
as in this, the same delirious and tumu-
ltuous stock market will have forgotten
the departed stock gambler by the next
days sun. Neither is there anything in
these catastrophes that calls for much
sympathy, or at least for anything but
that sentimental sympathy which is
misplaced both in subject and object
Nobody knew better than Drew, Fisk,
Stockwell and Keene the history OF their
predecessor gamblers. None knew bet
ter the chances against them. And none
were better able than they to draw out
at any moment, before the supreme mo-
ment when they had nothing to draw.
Mr.. Keene's tumble will not deter the
next mans tumble. The hot, crazy life
of Wall street will 90 on, and there will
be always plenty of lambs outside pray
ing for an opportunity to 60 in and be
fleeced. A fool and his money are soon
party. But until the momeut Of parting
arrives, nobody knows who the fools are.

a Jew, "The senator" he said, rising
gracefully and speaking in his usual sill

when his halfcivilized ancestors were
hunting the wild boar in the forests of
Silesia, mine were the princes of the
