That my boom no longer blooms
That my aspirations lack sense.
Like inscriptions on the tombs
Of an ancient Eastern King,
Where the hieroglyphics fling
Up their faces like old axe dents.
Trains are now arriving from both
ways, in the day time. This is an inn.
provement, we are glad to note.
The vote in Helena indicates q rapid
growth of our capital city, being ,66s az

opinion of the country. He will take a
lot Of stock with him.
Gavin Johnston, proprietor of the Bed
ford f. uring mills, situated at Bedford,
Jefferson county, is over to see how Mr..
Story's new mill operates.
Mr.. Z. B. Haynes, of the Fargo Repub-
lican is in town. By mistake he is put
down in the personals" as the photo
grapher. He is, however, the brother.
Fred schiplin will not, after all "shuf-
fe of this mortal coil" One side is par
allied and will remain go for some time,
but it is believed he will eventually re-
cover.
A. X. Yerkes. formerly on this paper,
has settled at Olympia, Washington Ter
ritory. and is sticking type. We pre-
sumo, however, that this is only tenn
porary arrangement.
The Northern Pacific will ship over
10000 head of young cattle from Iowa

An exchange says that it is an open Sc
cret that the Union Pacific has invested
$4,000 in Gallatin county coal lands and
will push its branch through as rapidly

Bozeman has settled down so quietly

The murderer Hanna seems to think
there is God now. He should have
thought of this before he committed his
hellish deed. We do not mean to dis
courage him now, but it looks like he
needed God more than ever, to pardon
him for committing the crime of which
no doubt he was guilty and for which he
will hang.
The Virginians are inclined to be
little sarcastic over the Cincinnati trouble
is evidenced by the following telegram
sent from Richmond to Senator John
Sherman during the riot; 1T is suggest
ed here that the Richmond Blues and
the detachment of howitzers who quell-
ed the Danville riot aid, in suppressing
the riot in your state. Upon the proper
application Governor Cameron might
order them out" The suggestion, though
pertinent, was doubtless regarded by Mr..
Sherman rs extremely impertinent.-

The farm garden is too frequently neg
lected until all the fields crops are plant
ed, or at best receives only little super
fetal attention at odd moments. This
should not be so. The garden is entitled
to the first and principal care, for it is
here that sustenance is raised for the
most valuable the farm contains-the
farmer and his family-against the price |
of which the value of the entire farm is
but grain Of sand.
The account we gave yesterday about
the attempted suicide of John Boreing
ct Salesyille was not entirely correct, as
we had to depend on rumor to some ex-
tent. It seems that he shot himself with
q 80 calibre, double action pistol, the ball |
striking the head about one and one-half |
inches above the right ear. The ball
split, one part following the skull bone
and emerging about an inch and half
from the point Of entrance, the other
part penetrated the skull bone, fractur-
ing piece about the size of a copper
cent. and imbedded itself in the brain.
He is paralized on the left side and in a
semi-comatose condition, and it is
thought he will recover. The cause as.
signed is jealousy of his wife.
