Last Wednes lay night one of the wip-
ers employed at the Livingston round
house, wishing to move the enging back
few feet, pulled on the lever and was
unable to shut off the steam. and in con-
sequence the engine shot back striking
another, sending it through the brick
wall of the house The engines were
considerably disabled and the wiper has
not since been seen.
1t may also be noted that the earnings
ofthe N. P. for the first two weeks of this
month show an increase of $50, 900 over
those ofthe corresponding periods of last
year. The work of moving the wheat
crops is now only fairly under way and
the earnings will continue to show
gains. The establishment of line of
ships between Portland and China is to
help the company also.
The increased demand and renumera-
tive price now being paid by eastern
brewers for Gallatin Valley barley fully
iustifes the statement made in the
CHRONICLE last April to the effect that it
is the best paying crop that could be
raised in the valley. 1t is a superior
article for brewing purposes, only equal
ed by that raised in the northern por-
ton of California. We trust that it will
be more generally sown next year.
The Bozeman library association is
finally fixture. For some time move

sum obtained to warrant the purchase
of a large number of books. But if one
has any that he or she is DESTROYS of con-
tributing such contributions will be ac-
ceptable. Books may be left at the
library.
The Fl. Ellis Comedy Co. played to a
full house on Saturday night last. The
programme was an exceedingly laugh
able one and the performers are all de-
serving of much credit. Ned Lyons was
full oil funny sayings and comical move
ments he was ably seconded by Con-
roy, who, besides doing negro delinea-
tions, is especially good in dancing. The
Big Four were heartily encored al d the
singing of Meehan, Hylent, Loundes
and others favorably commented upon.
Mr., A. M. Quivey, deputy marshal of
the Crow agency, is in town and informs
us that one day last week the Crows
overlook band of horse-stealing Pie
gans at Bridger creek and recovered 80
head of ponies just stolen from them.
One Piegan only was killed in the fight.
The Crows who went to the Piegan
agency to recover stolen horses had their
trip fort naught. The Indians heard
they were coming, as is usual when the
military move away from camp and
drove the stolen stock ecross the limo
Mr., M. A. Lundwal leaves this week
for Chicago, where he goes to enter the
Rush Medical institute. Mr.. Lundwal
has studied hard the mysteries of med
ical lore for the past three years, and
with the aid which only lectures can

use of his spare hours has improved
them In a way that many Bozeman
young men would do well to follow.
