A STOCKMAN'S REPORT.
How the Cattle Business is Carried On in
Montana, With Some Suggestions.

How the Cattle Business is Carried On in
Montana, With Some Suggestions.
y. B. DOVE, range owner in Montana,
is in the city at the cattle mems hang-out, the
Sherman house. He has about four thousand
head Of cattle on his range, and reports from
there state that they are all in fine eondi-
ton, even better than they were last winter
at this time Mr.. Dove says that he will not
have many on his range in the summer, as the
close times existing and the trail business
ha ve put damper or everything.
Mr Dove furnishes some Interesting in
formation as to how the different cattle men
retain their own cattle. There is an organi-
cation called the Eastern Live Stock assOcia-
ton, which is for the mutual benefit of all
range owners. The association is branch
of the Cheyenne association of Wyoming,
and it employs detectives and inspectors to
look after cattle that stray of, hunt thieves
and see that range men do not ship any cat
tie that do not belong 10 them. The latter
precaution is something that is very essential
for cattlemen, and TO guard against it, each
range owner must have a certain brand =,
which is registered with the association,
and from the latter a copy is furnished the
inspectors who can detect stray steer in q
moment. IL uulJe often occurs lDaL sOHie
cattle with an odd brand get mingled with Il
consignment and unless the shipper has an
orGcr to ship these odd ones from the owner
they will be held; and even should the ship
per have an order his name, the number of
odd cattle he shipped, and the form of brand,
are taken and reported. Another associa-
tiou in the territory is the Montana Live
Stock association, which works in har-
mony with the Eastern association,
Nj DOVE said it happened quite frequently
that a small herd OF cattle drited from the
rest 100 miles, and in tle spring these detec-
tives visit the different ranges and get stray
cattle back TO their proper places. Cattle
never freeze to death, but die quite often Of
starvation on account of the grass being COW
cred with snow. The best way to winter
cattle is to get them into the territory in the
summer, for after a long tramp they are tired
in their limbs and require much rest during
which time they lose considerable flesh. Then
about fall they begin 10 pick up and as win

A Rn,e IfincE.
gressive euch

The London Bullionist, a recognized finan-
cial authority, has recently INDUCED in a
bitter attack upon Dakota, apparently with a
view to discourage the sending Of English
and Scotch capital to the territory for invest
ment. Some of the loan companies that have
agents here and have large amounts in
vested are exercised over the matter and
have sent TO their local representatives, for
information. The leading point made is
that wheat growing is Improbable and the
farmers must all break up. 1t contains the
grussest Misrepresentation both as to pro-
auctions and climate. In reply the state
ments of many OF the principal farmers are
being procured which uniformly show that
wheat can be grown at profit at 80 cents a
bushel with careful and systematic manage
ment, while few have sold at less than GO
cents, and TO that stock and other crops are
being added. The Bullonist confuses Kan
sas with Dakota and says wheat has been
sold on ship at % cents.

AMUSEM ENTS.
Performance of 'Miss Mutton" Last Night
Engagement of FOrd's English Opera
COmDany


No severer test of the powers of a young
actress could well be made than the condi-
tons arising from the presentation of the old
play of ''Miss MultOn''given at the Grand last
night, with Grace Hawthorne in the title role.
The plot and action Of the drama are alike SO
dismal and melancholy that nothing much
short of inspiration itself could make its
performance pleasurable to the average
theater patron. The story, moreover, is
improbable, and the outcome so widely
divergent from ordinary human experiences
that one wonders why ii should be
played at all, so far as
HEALTHY and whole some mOral is concerned;
and this, as casuists tell US, is the aim and
mission of the drama. Even in the arbitrary
conditions of real life, heroic virtue is apt to
receive some need OF reward, even though it
comes with the sacrifice.
In this play one Is made to behold vir-
tuous and trur-hearted woman, almost torn
from the warm hearts of her husband and
children, and while she is still answering
in her constancy and devotion, in the short
interval of separation brought about by dra-
matte license, her place as mother
and wife is usurped by one
and that her marriage was merely matter
of convenience. Returning as a goveruess.
she realizes the unnatural and anomalous
condition of things, and after a series of
irving scenes and a life of intense suffering,
dies wholly unrequited.
SO much for the drama, and leaving aside
the question Of plot, moral or finale, it must
be said that it affords coveted opportunities
for the emotional powers of an actress. The
performance Of the title role ov Miss Haw-
thorne last night was artistic and
enjoyable from the fact that her scenes were
marked by strong dramatic power and in
tensity. She gave a feeling rendition of the
more trying scenes, and her acting Of the
more ell Ouonal situations was
marked bv sweetness and
pathos that moved the audience to tears.
The water test, II may be said, is the best
criterion of an actress ability in PLAYS Of this
nature, and in this she succeeds admirably
| The scenes with her husband and children,
and later on with the woman who has usurppd
her place. were all given with a wonderful
degree Of dramatic power and fervor.
The cast was very acceptable, Mr.. Horne
! giving a manly portrayal of the role of De
/ Latour, while Mamie Blake and Miss Willis
were bright and clever as the children Of the
unhappy heroine.

How Claims Are WOrked--What is Being
Found---Prospects for This Season
]. F. Wardner from the Ceur d'Alene
mines is in the city. He brings with him
three nuggets of gold which aggregate in
value S265. the largest of which is worth
Sl44.50. They were found In Pitchard creek
since last October. Mr.. Wardner feels as
sured that the success Of the mines is estab-
lished since these last finds have been made
at Potosi village, and over $50 per day is
being taken out of them. Emigration to the
mines from the immediate vicinity is start
ing in, and before spring it is
expected that the mining camps
will increase tenfold in number.
Each miner is allowed ten acres on the new
region and twenty on the old, and when a
new man goes in he steps out his ten acres
and puts up stakes and hangs placards on
them, saying ''This is my claim" and then
signs his name. His right is protected by an
organized vigilance committee, that will not
allow any jumping business, and any one
that attempts such an uneiviliZed act Will
have 3-7-77 tackled on his shanty, a Mon
tana sign signifying ''You had better leave
the territory" The miners have
worked every day this year, the snow not
being so deep as it has been other seasons.
Living is cheap in comparison with what it
was year ago. A fifty-pound sack of flour
can be bought for 81. so, seven pounds of
white graduated sugar for 81, or half a
bushel of potatoes for 81. Last year pota-
toes were worth 80 cents per pound.

times almost live on their future calculations,
deeming it quite probable that they will Que
of these days strike vein that will make
them millions. You may see one trudging
along with badly torn raiment, and
ask him what he will sell his
claim for; 1880, 000," he will say.
As a general thing they are happy crowd,
always originating some plan TO divert their
minds from business to pleasure, which is
something pretty hard to do, con-
sidering the great excitement they are
usually laboring under. A miner will quite
often commence picking out Jumps Of gold
from his claim while he is sleeping, and as
he tries to lift an unusually heavy piece he
will awake from deep slumber, and cuss
himself because the dream was not real.

are very easy to work. There are no deep
shafts to be dug and no water to dip out
of places where digging is going on.
