Imitation of a Romance.

The marriage Of a Montana citizen,
who deals extensively in stock, is to
take place soon with a Boston girl. The
meeting of the two is rather singular
one and somewhat romantic. The
young lady left the city of baked beans
on a visit to her sister who lives in one
of Montana's booming towns. She was
accompanied by an older sister and the
two were enthusiastic over the sights OF
the territory. They left the n. 2. at
small town east Of here, where they
were to take team for the home OF
their relative. They were obliged to
stop in the place until the next day.
The Younger one Of the two was pre-
possessing looking damsel and gifted
with a pair of black eyes which sparkled
at the sight Of handsome young man.
During their stay there, they became
acquainted with the aforesaid cattle man,
who induced them to stay over to
dance which was to be held IN the
town in few days, promising that Ii
they would he would take them home.
The cultured city ladies consented and
remained to enjoy the fun Of Montana
hop. The gallant young man took his
team the morning after the ball with an
additional span Of horses and drove
them to their destination, where they
arrived safe and sound, with the heart
of the youngest damsel transferred to
the COW boy. The c. b., on his return,
was snowbound three days in one place,
but finally succeeded in reaching home
with heart as light as Montana
mocking birds feather. The wedding
is to take place in Boston, and it is
hoped that their married life may be
strewn with es.-Independent.

testified that ToWsend had used his au-
thority as government agent to procure
a lease. The Iowas, Berry testified, had
not acquired title to their reservation,
and Townsend made them believe that
he would get title for them if they
would let him have IA lease. Witness said
the Indians believed that Townsend
was the government and in that belief
they let him have the lease. Berry also
charged that Townsend had used money
to get his lease. He had preferred
charges against Townsend before the
Indian bureau, bat did not hear from
them until he got Senator Plum to in
quire about it. He was then advised
that Townsend had resigned and that
therefore the Indian commissioner
could do nothing with him. Witness
testified that it was understood that a.
corruption fund was used to obtain the
"Cherohee strip lease.

Another Explosion IN London.

LONDON, January 24-2:20 p. m.-An
alarming explosion has just occurred in
the house of parliament. It is impossi-
bic at this moment to tell the extent of
the calamity. Great excitement pre-
walls and enormous crowds are assem-
bling at the scene of the explosion, the
origin of which is wrapped in mystery,
but it is believed to be caused by dyna-
mite. The explosion occurred close to
the house of lords, near Westminster
hall.
.. NIT has been ascertained that
large quantity Of explosive matter had
been placed inside the great ornamental
gates leading to the crypt under West
minister hall. These gates were blown
clear off their hinges to the ground.
All the windows on the north and south
sides of the building were blown to
atoms.
LONDON, January 26.-The Pail Mall
Gazette publishes an article in which it
says it maryels at the fright and furry
exhibited by the morning papers, when
the whole damage done by all the dyna-
mite outrages amounts to less than e100,-
900 pounds.
The st. James Gazette speaks in a
similar strain, and advises modified
suspension of the habeas corpus act.
It is now known that the internal
machines used to cause the disaster were
ignited by sulphuric acid, which worked
through cotton wool and ate away cap
beneath. The process occupied twenty
minutes time and thus allowed the con-
spirators to escape before the explosion
took place. Cunningham is now the
only suspect in custody The evidence
against him hourly grows stronger.
