A Quarrel.

There's knowing little proverb,
From the sunny land OF Spain:
But in Northla1d, as in Southland,
Is Its meaning clear and plain.
Lock it up within your heart;
Neither lose nor lend it
Two it takes to make quarrel;
One can always end it.
Try it well in every way,
Still you'll find it true;
In fight without foe,
Pray what could you dor
If the wrath is yours alone,
Soon you will expend it.
Two it takes to make quarrel;
One can always end it.
Let's suppose that both are wroth,
And the strife begun.
If one voice shall cry for s.Peace,"
Soon it will be done.
Ifbut one shall span the breach,
He will quickly mend 1t.
Two it takes to make quarrel;
One can always end 1t.

This from the Altoona Tribune of lasi
week; The other night there was "ball'
in this city. A newspaper man vending bis
way homeward long after midnight saw
drunken young men rromenading the streets
with young girls hanging on their arms.
Some of the girls couldn't have been over
fifteen; all that came under the newspaper
mans observation were very young. As be
looked at them Indignation took possession
of his soul-not at the young people, for
they probably have no better sense-but al
the parents who deliberately retire to their
couches and sleep the sleep of calm conf
dence, while their girls, no more than chill
dren, crowd a heated ballroom or wand cr
up and down the streets in the company of
a young fellow half crazed with rum.
The Bloomfield Advocate of last week
says: On Monday, the 18th. C. K. Smith,
of Miller township, met with another terri
BILE accident. He was feeding a threshing
machine. when by some mishap his right
hand was caught in the cylinder of the ma
chine, and the flesh was stripped to the
bone from the second, third and fourth fin
gers, and the thumb was bursted open. His
index finger escaped injury. Fortunately
nc bones We're broken. Mr.. Smith has been
peculiarly unfortunate in meeting with ac-
cidents but fortunate in always recovering
from them. Some twelve years ago a colt
he was driving ran Off and threw him ont
of carriage. He was badly bruised and
cut about the face. About three years ago
in stepping from buggy he broke the bones
of one of his legs. We hope for his speedy
recovery from the present accident.

The WaIIaek Company.

The forthcoming engagement of the
noted Wallack company here this week
will prove an epoch in theatrical affairs
of Bozeman The company is under the
personal management of Mr. Charles
Frohman, who is regarded in the the
atrical world as one of the shrewdest
and most capable amusement directors
in America. 1t was this gentleman's
ability that placed the Madison Square
theatre Of New York on the high
pedestal of popularity it occupies to-day.
Each summer Mr.. Frohman takes the
company from the home theatre to San
Francisco via Omaha, where their APP
pearance has been anxiously looked for
ward to by the theater-goers of the
Golden Gate city But few people out
side of the dramatic profession can form
any adequate idea of the actual expense
attached to such a company as Wallacks
1t IS we'll known fact that when an
artist has once been a member of Wal
lacks company their future success is
assured. They have stood the test OF
public criticism for over half century
and as only the greatest artists attain
able are engaged, their performances
are probably the most complete and
perfect on the American stage. Their
appearance here on Thursday, Friday
and Saturday evenings Will undoubtedly
attract large and fashionable audiences
They have just concluded three weeks
engagement in Chicago, where, notwith'
standing the warm weather, the capacity
| of the theater was tested at each per
] formance. Their repertoire comprises
only those pieces that secured the great
est success at Wallack's theater, New
York, during the past season, and CON
sists OF "Victor Durand," Diplomacy
and "Lady Clare" The first named
play is the work of Henry Guy Carlton
and is almost Greek in its observance
of dramatic unities. The scene is laid il
Paris, and the events on which the worl
is founded are based mainly upon cir
cumstancial evidence and mistaken
identity. During its run in New Yorl
scarcely dry eye was perceptible in thu
vast auditorium of Wallack's theater, 81
strong a hold had the pathetic thread
of the story wound themselves about tn
feelings of the audience.

The st. Paul Pioneer Press interview.
ed Martin Maginnls when he was in St
Paul last week Except to warmly en-.
dOrse the appointment of Mr.. Hauser as
governor of the territory, he would say
nothing with reference to Montana poll
tics. Of Mr.. Hauser, he said He is a
leading citizen of the territory and a
very public-spirited man. His appoint
ment is an excellent one, and shows that
President Cleveland is faithfully carry
ing out his promise to give the govern
ment of the territories to their own citi-
zens, removing the carpet baggers. Ques-
toned with reference to the federal
offices in the territory and his own
interest therein, as well as that ofothers
he replied that he had nothing to say /:
that he knew little about the matter,
and was not aware that there were any
offices to be filled at present. We sus-
pect that the Major has for the time
being given up all idea of becoming an
ohCo-huiu0i, db theIc rs HotHlHs bldt ne
would accept outside of the Governor
ship of Montana This is evinced by
reason Of his high standing with those
who have influence with the administra-
ton, and who could procure for him
lucrative outside Office, if he so desired.
We expect to see the Major resume
newspaper business in the rock-ribbed
defiles of Last Chance Gulch.

Gallatin Valley is now supplying the
entire eastern portion of Montana with
strawberries. Berries that are far sup
superior in size and flavor to those from
the east and west, and coming some
what latter they fill a very important
want of the market. This year the bust
ness has assumed larger proportions than
ever before, one grower shipping from
three to four hundred quarts per day
Next year, we believe, this culture will
be more generally followed and that the
Gallatin valley berry will reach the cities
of Minnesota. The most extensive
grower informs us that the berry is
larger, the plant harder AMI the vines
more prolific in this valley than in any
other place he has ever been. The ex-
pertinent of growing apples has also
proved success and will be more gener-
ally followed hereafter.

The outlook for this porron of Mon
tana is, to say the least, good. With
very large acreage of grain in the Gal

hard times than any other portion ofthe
country, and with the fulfllment of the
summers promise. will be the first to

At an expense of one hundred dollars
per day to the government, the senate
commission" is now junketing from
place to place to secure arguments and
figures on the question of congressional
instead of state regulation OF railway
traffic. Several similar commissions
have worked out this problem, the re-
ports of their labors (?) have been print
ed and the accounts buried in the Wash
ington book tombs. Congressional in
reference with the railroads and people
in this degenerate age will not compass
the ends required, as long as that body
is under the control Of gigantic corpor-
atoms.
