NANCY.

In brown holland apron she stood in the kitchen,
Her sleeves roll up and her cheeks all aglow
Her hair coiled reatly-when ndiscreetly
Stood watching while Nancy was kneading the
dough
Now, who could be neater, or brighter, sweeter
Or who hum song delightfully."- low?
Or who look slender, 90 graceful, 80 tender,
AS Nancy, sweet Nancy, while kneading the dough?
How defy she pressed it, squeezed and caressed it,
And twisted and turned now quick and now slow.
All me- but that madness, I've paid for in sadness
twas my heart she was kneading well az the
dough.
At last when she turned for her pan to the dresser.
She me and hlnshed, and said shyy, " Please
go,
Or my bread Tll be spelling in spite of my toiling
If you stand here and watch while I'm kneading
the dough-"
I begged for permission stay. She'd not listen;
The sweet little tyrant said, "No, sir I! no! MOI"
Yet when had vanished on being thus banished,
My heart was with Nancy while kneading the
dough.
I'm dreaming, sweet Nancy, and see you in fancy,
Your heart. love, has softened and ptied my woe;
Al d we dear, rich in dainty, wee kitchen,
Where Nancy. my Nancy, stands kneading the

Fort Benton, Montana. Wednesday, january 16, 1884


to fredericksburg, and Willard and
were trying TO keep along with it. we
found ourselves a good way from any
eligible house and compelled to camp,
soldier-fashion, on The ground. We
pick eted our horses, then brought a
dozen nice, soft, three colnered rails
from a worm fence near by, laid them
gracefully together side by side in the
wet grass, as close together as possible,
aud went to bed As it was cold, we
put our blankets together and laid them
over us; and as there We're no mosquitoes
we got along fairly we'll The only dis
turbance was made by Willard. [ awoke
suddenly about midnight and found
Willard sitting up in bed and carefully
pushing the blankets over me, saying
''excuse me-" This happened three or
four times during the night. I didn't
suppose that such a man as that ever
would be rich. Maybe he has been so
foolish as to give away his wife's property
and start from bedrock again. Who

tors, Mr.. Sykes Trout in Belt creek
deer, elk and bear in the hills. During
the warm days of summer few horse
flies might be seen at a distance from
the eye, probably about the wrists or
hands. No flies in January. the boys
told ME, except those of the species bliZ.
Zard.
Among those in camp were Messrs.
Chamberlain, Sykes, Macintosh, Car
ruthers, Fitzpatrick, Harley, and sever
al others whose names [ do not remem-
ber. These are the pioneers of the dis
trict, and all are interested in promising
young mines. They calculated to winter
there this season, and if they do, we
trust they will not lie idle, but make the
best of their time in further opening
their properties, end next season we
shall be enabled to further judge of their
value and form an opinion as to their
permanence.
Across the mountain, north and lit
tie east of Neihart, Immediately back of
Baldy mountain, about five miles dis
tant, is Snow creek. The mines on this
creek are similar in character, I was in
formed, to those of Neihart. They are
on an almost direct line with the latter,
and if connection Is established between
the two camps, by discoveries on the ia
tervening hills, it will be regarded as
favorable to the continuity Of the veins
in depth. The general makeup of this
region of the country. including the
veins and their ores, is of a character
that should command the attention of
those who are seeking investments in
mines. AT present the developments
are too limited to warrant the invest
ment of any great amount Of capital,
and it is hoped the boys will do good
work this winter, and next summer [
promise to pay them another visit.

Sheep Notes.

In conversation with an intelligent
sheep raiser yesterday we cleaned few
points which would probably never oc-
| cur to person who had only made the
business pay with paper and pencil by
| the side of hot stove. Our informant
| has rustled with sheep on the range for
| the last three winters, and as he is a
close observer his words ought to carry
some weight. Speaking of the amount
| of snow now lying on the ground, he
says that amounts to nothing so long as
it does not get crusted by rain or a
chinook catching cold. Any reasonable
amount of snow, say foet or fifteen
inches, does not seem to retard the
sleeps feeding in the least, as they can
easily nose around in that much of the
feecy covering for their daily bunch
grass. Then, again, when the ground
is bare and grass easy to get the frisky
animals are doing more racing around
than eating. They will nibble bite,
and then seeing tall, waving bunch a
rod ahead, off they start for that, and SO
they spend the whole day, when they
ought to be filling their stomachs, in
looking at the country and only SAM
snow on the ground, our informant
A sheep would make clean up
as he went along, the cold snow
not being near as inviting for run and
frolic as the grass-covered plain, sd
that The animal really seemed to get
more to eat when there was liberal
sprinkling of snow over his fodder.
There are always little points and
knolls which the wind has blown bare,
and the flock soon make clean work of
a picnic of that kind. The inevitable
cold stormy days, with the wind in the
north and lots of snow flying will find
the sheep of the good shepherd peaceful
ly nibbling away on some hay within
the shelter of the corral and sheds.
Shelter and some food besides that which
is rustled for..on the range is now provided
by all intelligent wool growers, as it is a
penny wise and pound foolish pol
icy when they try to save few dollars
and do without.

Montana Railroad Business.

The Northern Pacific business from
Montana is thus stated by Vice Presi-
dent Oakes:
The cattle shipments for the fall OF
1883 amounted 1,517 cars; wool ship
ments from Montana, 2,2O5, ,474 pounds;
and the hide shipments /, 7O2, 116 pounds
This shows an increase of So per cent. in
the shipments of hides. The shipments
of wheat since July amount to 263 $780, :
761 pounds (4,3S9,849 bu.). This is an
increase over 1882 of 80 $50, ,204 pounds
Il, 500, III buy It is estimated there
will remain of this seasons crop to be
shipped after January 1, 1884, $500, 900
pounds. The mineral shipments from
Montana have amounted to but 1880
tons thus far, but the opening of the
Helena & Jefferson branch, reaching as
it does the mines of the Alta, Montana,
Gregory, and other companies, will af-
ford an outlet for many thousand tons of
low grade ores that would not otherwise
bear transportation, and we have assur-
ances from the managers of the mines
referred to that their shipments this
year will aggregate at least 10000 tons.
In Oregon and Washington Territories
thus far the grain shipments east OF the
Cascades have been 5000 tons, against
A 900 tons for the same period in 1882,
and there still remains 10000 tons,
which will bring the total surplus to 1885,,
900 tons for the season of 1882. The
mineral sections along the Northern Pa
cific railroad are rapidly developing,
and from these districts the company
will, during 1884, derive large revenue.
The mining output of 1884 of the Terri
tory of Montana is estimated by Mr..
Hauser, president of the First National
bank Of Helena, at over $50, ,00a, 900,
more than double that of the previous
year. The tonnage from the Butte Sec
ton will be immense. Large reduction
works are now under construction,
which will reduce the low grade ores
that could not heretofore be shipped to
market. The amount of copper ore and
matte to oe shipped from Butte this year
Is estimated at go, 900 tons.o

Ell TALK.
A Company Organized TO Bring the Water
of the Teton Into Fort Benton.

The readers of the RIVER PRESS will
remember that few months ago we
published an interview with Sheriff
McDevitt in regard to turning the Teton
river through the city by means of a
tunnel, bringing the stream out in the
coulee back of the Brinkman butte, in
the neighborhood Of Kennedy IL Kelly's
slaughter house. The sheriff at that
time expressed the most implicit conf
dence in the feasibility of the project,
and stated that it was at once the cheap
est, easiest and best plan for supplying
Benton with an abundance OF Water,
either with Or without water works, and
at the same time first class water power.
The tunnel (Which will be about mile
in lengthy he said could be constructed
at a cost of not more than $4,000, Sc
curing all the great advantages enumer-
ated above.
The publication of the article in the
RIVER PRESS created good deal of
interest and comment, while some of
the sheriff's friends were mean enough
to allude to him as the tunnel crank"
etc. AS recent events 60 to show, how
ever, he is not the only one who has
faith like unto mountain in this enter
prise. A stock company, composed of
some of our wealthiest and most enter
prising citizens, has recently been Or
ganized to put the project through, and
Messrs. Griffith & Ingersoll are already
engaged to make the necessary surveys
so that the work of driving the tunnel
may begin without delay. This COM
pany, however, is not to have the field
alone. Sheriff McDevitt never gave up
the project, even if it is a big one, and
some time ago he quietly filed on the
water right and will, he says, in few
days, commence work on his tunnel and
put the enterprise through as speedily
as possible, meantime forming COM
pany to carry the project out on grand
scale. He has the prior water right,
and to this extent has the "bulgen on
the company already organized.
The RIVER PRESS is glad to see that
his matter is considered of such impor-
tance as to bring about centest, but we
would respectfully suggest7that the par
ties ''pool their issues an. unite heart
lily in the great and goou work of sup
plying Benton with water works, water
power, etc. The enterprise is big enough
for all of them. Of it's entire feasibility
and the fact that it will prove a profita-
ole investment there is no doubt what
ever

A Good Move.

Messrs Hauser, Hotter and others
propose taking up large tract of desert
land in Choteau county and improving
the same by large ditch from Sun riv-
er. This is as it should be; for large
portions Of our territory can never be
put in cultivation unless some such sys-
tenn be adopted to provide for the irriga-
ton, since very few settlers haye the
means of constructing the necessary
bitches; and if they had the means, it
would not be profitable to construct
them for single farms, save IN very rare
cases.
Either companies must be formed to
construct bitches and manage the water
after the farms are taken up, as eApe-
rence has shown to be necessary in the
Prickly Pear valley, or such companies
must take up the land, construct the
bitches and then sell the farms with wa
ter rights thus secured and provided.
We understand that two or three
other companies are already at work in
Choteau county, or are preparing to
commence operations ON a large scale,
in that part of the territory.
If the vast plateau of rich lands in
this part of the territory can be made
available to settlers by such irrigating
bitches, no distant day will see aumer-
Gus and prosperous people following
close upon the heels of the Indian and
the buffalo, and making the desert
bloom like the rose and wave with the
golden grain.
The proposed preservation of the for
ests in the mountains north, which now
supply the waters of the Dearborn, Sun,
Teton, Marias and Milk rivers, will pre-
vent any shrinkage ia those streams and
secure an increasing supply Of water for
this vast area of excellent lands.
We rejoice to see these lands going
into the hands of our own citizens rath-
er than into the possession of non-resi-
dents, particularly if those non-residents
be aliens; for we have been abundantly
shown that nonresident owners are
sometimes an injury rather than bene-
fit to country, as were the owners of
the Comstock mine, and the landlords of
ireland. d.-Independent.

Jumping at Barker

We are informed by gentleman just
in from the camp that there was some
mine jumping on New Years day to
enliven the otherwise quiet monotony
of the place. The Edna, OF the May &
Edna, was jumped, although it was
supposed that the requisite amount of
assessment work had been done on it
the last year. Several other claims also
were etaken possession ofby the new par
ties, but the names of these mines were
not remembered by our informant.

At the last sessions of the commissions

work of the board:

A Red Robber.

A bold, bad Indian had the audacity
to steal one of Charley Sheridan's cay
uses Saturday night and then come back
Sunday night and take the remaining
one out to his tepee on the Teton. The
aggrieved man found the rascal yester.
day morning, and made such forcible
gun play at him that the Indian went
at once to the Teton and brought back
the horses. Not satisfied with the re-
turn of his property. the owner turned
