RESCUED BUT NOT RELIEVED.

They were deeply in love. The sun
was setting behind the snow-clad peaks
of western mountains, its glittering rays,
like the bright love of the young hearts,
lit up the deep defiles of Bridger Can
yon. Turning suddenly round the curve
of the narrow mountain road-a few feet
below, ran the roaring brook-the lovers
are brought face to face with heavily
loaded wagon coming up the mountains.
The loaded team is crowded against the
rocky roadside wall, while the lovers
carefully draw in their steeds, pass the
first wheel safely, the second wheel is

young lady is thrown to the middle of

shot out of gun. The road builders
are near by. All plunge recklessly into

PATENT SMELLING FURNACE.

Mr.. ]. B. Bogert has kindly shown us
a letter from Chas. L. Hartsfeld, New
port, KY. owner of patent smelling
furnace, probably the cheapest and best
appliance for reducing ores that can be
found-complete and deliveredat Clark's
Forks mines; a five ton furnace costs
$2,250; ten ton $500. with full
guarantee and test of thirty DAYS. These
furnaces are now being built in sizes of
five up to fifty tons daily capacity for
god. silver and other precious metals.
The following regarding the furnace is
copied from The American Inventor,
and shows plainly that they are especi-
ally adapted for this country -
The novelty consists chiefly in the
cooling of the smelling furnace by water,
without using an air tight water space.
The inner cylinder can expand and con-
tract without any resistance as to tenn
perature the consequence is that re-
pairs are hardly ever required. The
smelling process can therefore be kept
up continuously without interruption,
the upper part of the furnace never gets
hot and the coke or wood does not begin
to burn until it arrives at the lower part,
where the smelling process takes place
at on by very strong blast.
The total weight of 50-ton furnace
set up complete is 1900 pounds and Its
size by 20 feet. The smaller ones are
only 1,600 pounds, and we feel assured in
predicting that SO handy a device can
not fail of the extensive patronage in our
mining regions that it has already found
in those of Central Europe. 1t is certain
that many properties now abandoned as
worthless may be made by its operation
to yield handsome returns. The noun
tain forests can supply it with abundance
of fuel, and the mountain mule is suffici-
emily sturdy to run the blast.

GYMNASTICS.

/
Have Bozenan young men solved the
problem That's the question:
The writer OF this brief article has had
considerable experience through de-
cade in dealing with the question. how
to secure the young men of our towns
and cities against the allurements of the
saloon, the gambling hall and other evil
places of resort. That there are scores
of young men in all western villages,
towns and cities, whose charater has,
during their boyhood days been pro-
tected by the watehful care OF father
or mother. or perhaps both. But snch
having left the parental roof. haviag
come to the west to enter the struggle
for bread and perhaps fortune, finds
themselves minus the guidings of their
former helmsman, and therefore too
often drift with the tide, and lose them
selves in the current, which becomes
swifter as it nears the rapids of ruin.
The church has done much to aid such
in their new relations, but hundreds are
not reached by the church at all. \. NJ.
G. Associations are working at the great
problem with commemorate zeal, yet
thousands are not reached. Do our
young men feel that these institutions
are too rigid in their plans and work
ings? That is to say, are their workings
unsuccessful. because they force the re-
iigous sentiment too strongly The line
inust be drawn between the moral and
immoral, but just how strongly seems to
be the query. Amy measure of estrange-
ment between christian institutions and
our young men is certainly to be de-
plored. Does the gymnasium meet the
case? If so, then by all means let the
good work go on fence, box, row and
practice all kinds of athletic exercises.
Follow the example of the early Greeks.
AS a writer has said, ''They knew that
much of the enjoyment Of life depends
upon the possession of a vigorous physi-
cal constitution The Greek physicians
often prescribed gymnastics as means
for recovering health. Rome bor-
rowed the Grecian physical culture in
her latter days. Modern gymnastics or
iginated early in the nineteenth century
in Prussia. Germany, Scandinavia and
France adopted them for schools and for
the soldiery, and in all these schools
private enthusiasm did much for the
cause. Great Britain's upper and middle
classes have given an important place to
these exercises, and there is also great |
interest taken in this institution by our
own people By all means then letthere
be added as the funds permit, baths, in
pocent games, and occasion invite the
public to literary and other entertain
ments, that they may in some measure
share in your recreative pastimes. Have |
our young men of Bozeman solved the |
problem? We shall see In the mean
time may success attend your efforts.

General Freight Agent Hannaford, OF
the Northern Pacific, has received the
manifest Of the bark Isabel, ladened with
tea for Tacoma. Her cargo consists OF
90 .47O half chests OF tea, or about 900
tons actual weight 1t is consigned 10
st. Paul, Chicago and New York parties.
St. Paul's portion win be 2.O49 pounds.
The bark is under the command OF Capt.
Joseph Howe, and is sailing under the
British flag. She was the only yessel
available at the time of carter. The
Northern Pacific has completed all ar
rangements for bringing the tea across
the continent. 1t has between 90 ana
100 c. rs now at Tacoma fox that purpose.
It is not known exactly how many
trains. or how many cars, will be neces-
sary to transport the tea, as the officials
of the road cannot tell exactly how mucn
they can load to the car. The general
impression is that it will go about ten
tons to the car, which would require lVO
cars, or about FIVE trains.

A COMPLETE WORK.

Mr.. Wood, who, by the way, has no
connection with the Bancroft outfit, who
so heartlessly 'bilked" our farmers last
year, is canvassing for Johnson's New
Universal Encyclopaedia; and we are
pleased to say is meeting with good suc'
cess. especially among the younger men
of our community. The Johnson is I'M
qualifedly the best work of the kind in
America 1t is an American work and
in complete in eight parts, four volumes,
compact and convenient. On American
subjects it is far superior to any other
work, it is cheaper, by one halt, than
Apeleton's and more highly commended
by those able to Judge. To the farmer,
the merchant, the clergyman and all 9TH
ers it's compdctness, its reliability, its
completeness all commend its universal
adoption and use. Mr.. Wood meets
with flattering success we are pleased to
say, but finds it hard to labor against the
prejudices created through the rascality
of Bancroft's agents.

NJ. e. CAMP MEETING.

The M. f. camp meeting, which COM
menced last Wednesday at Middle creek,
this county, and closed on Monday eve
ming last, has proved very successful in
the conversion of s1uls. On Sunday the
largest religious gathering ever held in
Montana was ON the grounds-variously
estimated at / 900 to 1900 people, from
all parts of the valley. The day was
cool and delightful and The services
deeply interesting. At noon the people
gathered in family parties and sat down
to observation-disclosures went hungry.
The lonesome CHRONICLE scribe was the
guest of MIR. Barnett and wife, and the
way in which he disposed of yellow-leg-
ged chicken was calculated to create
scarcity of these noble birds, No won
der that when plain American preacher
comes In from long, rough trip among
the heathens, he realizes that plain
boiled chicken is the noblest work of
God.
After dinner the tent was crowded by
those who were anxious to hear the Rev
Iliff, who delivered stirring sermon of
considerable length. Immediately after
the sermon, the camp was the scene of
busy preparation, large number leav-
ing for their homes, and those remaining
preparing supper. There were twenty
ministers from all parts of the Territory
in attendance, and it requires no incon-
siderable amount of provisions to keep
the camp supplied with eatables. Dc
cupying one tent we noticed Mr.. David
Anderson and wife, in another was Mrs.
Tracy, supplying the hungry, and in an
other Mrs. Aylsworth. The services are
held in large tent, sixty feet in dame
ter, situated on an elevated spot over
looking the grounds. After eating again,
through the kindness Of Mr.. Anderson,
we scanned the horizon in vain for the
Conveyance which promised to be on hand
and then lit out for home on foot, Nine
miles Of dusty tramping is not calculated
to put one in happy frame of mind,
and it is feared that the good effects Of
the religious atmosphere was entirely
eradicatod before we reached the city.

Last Sunday, while H. NixOn's herder,
was going to dinner an extra on the n.

grade shorthorn cow, and broke leg
and otherwise injured one of his import
ed Holstein cows. Several saw them ran
into. The engineer did not either
whistle or stop. 1t was the middle of
the day, where the road was IN view for
miles. There is no doubt but it could
have been avoided. In thisinstance the
railroad company should pay the full
value of the animals, as their death and
injury was evidently the work Of wanton
carelessness.
