Times At Helena, Monts nal

Says the Helena Independent OF last
Wednesday: The Improvement in
city trade with the return of Spring
has been quite noticeable for the past
few days. The sidewalks are almost
blocked by the large orders Of goods
which are being daily received. THIS
Of itself is the best Of proof that Spring
has at last come. Our streets are
beginning to be thronged by farmers
and stockmen who are in the city to
do their trading. The freighters ere
busy transferring shipments. Our
merchants seem 10 be vieing with one
another in seeing who can have the
largest stock of goods for the coming
season. The weather has been such as,
to allow those from distance to- visit
our city and the effect is,most clearly
shown. Large mining enterprises are
assuming shape, and within the next
few weeks developments will be made
which will ssrpass anything that we
had heretofore. The new discoveries
lately made near Helena are proving
all that was anticipated and will have
most wholesome effect on TRADE.

az Acting Governor entered the Execu.

The Governor did not respond.
Again Lieutenant Governor Laugh

Good morning, Governor.
The Governor did not respond.
Whereupon the Lieutenant Governor
loudly exclaimed:
Governor | have some papers to
submit for your action"
Then the Governor turned around in
his chair, and remarked;
al will recognize you sir, otflcia ",
butI decline to recognize you socially,
now or heralter.'
At this the ex.acting Governor
warmed up and said he didn't care .
damn whether the Governor recognized
him onnot, and as he supposed it was
on account OF his action on the bills
left in his charge, he would simply say
that under the same circumstances his
action wouldsslways be the same.
Governor Adams refused to give the
little Governor any satisfaction, and
the soc.a. relations heretofore existing
between the two gentleman have evi,

FRANK A. ROBBINS, CIRCUS.

This colossal show of splendor exhibit
ted in Haverstraw on Tuesday. The stree t
pageant in the morning was monster
affair, eclipsing anything before witness
ed in Haverstraw. Two exhibitions were
given during the day, which proved to be
the grandest shows seen here for years
past. The male and female performers
all did their work well and fully came up
to the standard. The equine family are
well trained and are the best looking AMI
mails that travel with any circus on this
continent. The menagerie is complete
and contains nearly every specie of the
wide world. To give detailed descrip-
ton of everything connected with the
show would fill an entire newspaper, sc
to be brief we advise all who have the
good fortune to be in tho neighbour
hood where the circus may be, to at
tend, as they will be full repaid for theil
trouble. Mr.. Robbins, the proprietor, is
courteous and genial fellow, and is as
honest as the day is long. He is an ad.
mirer of the press In general. "-Rockland

A Festival Under Canvas.


Human ingenuity has well-nigh exhaus-
ted itself in preparing feats of amusement
for the multitude, but 1t has remained for
Frank A. Robbins to cap the climax of
circus enterprise with the monster exhibit
ton he has organized for the season of
1885. Mr.. Robbins never deceives the
public; his promises go at par every time,
and are always duly honored. What he
promises ON paper will be found beneath
the canvas. 1t is a veritable wonder world,
everything is novel and interesting.
Every act is startling in its originality
every curiosity interesting from its rarity;
every animal challenges admiration for
it's beauty and perfect keeping, and every
portion excites the warmest commenda'
ton by its cleanliness, perfect order and
system, and the entire absence of all OBJ
jectionable features. In the rings and
on the elevated stage a continual success
sion of interesting acts are presented,
among them being leaping, tumbliug,
bareback riding, ceiling walking by the
Human Fly, aerial bicycling, trapeze per.
formances, acrobatic evolutions, perform
ing Arabs, Turks, Moors, Egyptians and
Mexican exhibitions, besides dozens oil
other festivities of more than ordinary
merit. In the menagerie, with its many
cages of wild animals, are TO be seen nu-
merous trained animals in the exhibition
arena, including the wonderful trained
Baby Clown Elephant, who does more
clever things than was ever performed by
an elephant before.
This exhibition will appear in Lam
bertville, Saturday, Oct. 81.

WILKEsBARRE, Oct. ia "squeeze"
took place at the Baltimore mines of the
Delaware and Hudson Canal Company in
the Second ward, of this city, to-day.
The roof of the workings, which are
about 800 feet below the surface, caved
in, and the ground settled to the depth of
ten or twelve feet over an area of fifteen
acres. The ground was badly scanned
and cracked, and the public road which
passes over the disturbed area rendered
impossible. Only two houses were on the
disturbed area. They were much shaken,
and one is in a dangerous condition,
threatening to toppie over at any moment.
The occupants have moved out with their
goods.
It is feared that further settling may
occur, as the roof in other parts of the
workings threatens to come down. The
mine is an old one, and there have been
several collapses. They are caused by ex-
cessive 'pillar-robbing.
