The Hudson Bay Transportation Route.
[Chicago Timesl

The Hudson Bay transportation Route.
[Chicago Times.]
A good deal has been said of late about
the feasibility Of route through Hudson's
bay Tor transportation of ths products Of
the middle portion Of the continent to
Europe. The project has been commended
on the claim that it would give q compare
lively short rail route, and thereby make
transportation cheap The projectors have
expressed belief that lines Of railroads
from the central portion of the continent,
reaching as far south as Colorado and Kan
sas, would converge upon Hudson's bay.
Lieut. Fred Schwatka explodes this idea.
He shows that the route could be open but "a
few weeks in each year. For seven or eight
months the ice is a solid body, and after ii
breaks up the channel is often closed bv
drift ice, even in July and August Ships
trying to force their way into the open sea
are liable to be caught in dangerous ice.
traps Usually in August, although some-
times not until the latter part of the month,
the straits leading into Hudson's bay are clear
but it is only little time a. the days grow
shorter till the ice begins to form again.
The period Of open water is so short that, as
Schwatka expresses it, vessel could only
"dash in" for cargo, and would be lucky
to get out. This, in all probability, is a cor
rect Judgment. Even the route by our great
lakes Is closed five months out Of the year.
and 1t remains to be demonstrated whether
the Canadian Pacific railway, although ly-
ing south of the country to be traversej by
the projected road before reaching Hudson's
bay, can be operated in winter with prac-
tical results 55z

Work Of Grace.

The meetings continue in the First Bap-
list church with a growing interest among
the young people in Bismarck. Nearly
every night some one takes a decided stand
on the side Of the Lord Jesus Christ. There
is an abundant reason for thanksgiving to
Almighty God, on the part of all Christian
people, for the glorious work Of grace going
on at this time in our city. Let the people
of God ''come up to the help of the Lord;
to the help of the Lord against the mighty, 2
and the salvation of God will know no
bounds until hundreds of our people, who
are 'sfast passing away to the great judg.
ment day." prepared or unprepared, will be
led to Christ and saved by His shed
blood"
A special inquiry meeting is held each
evening at 6:45, at which the pastor of the
church will be pleased to meet any one who
desires to be instructed in the sway of eter-
nal life" Regular service begins promptly
at $50. and will close about $50. sBehold,
now is the accepted time; behold, now is
the day Of salvation" You are invited to
come. j. e. DECKARD, Pastor.

We all know from Thackeray how while
fair women and brave men held revel at
the duchess Of Ricbmond's ball. and stout
hearted Mrs Col O'Dowd made merry
with Belgian wine at the supper table,
there stole into the room an aid-de camp,

The same Old cake"

After all, humanity is the same the world
over. People are all about alike. and no
sooner does boomer spring up in new
and distant land than his reasons for the
upbuilding of a great city on his tree claim
are found to be chestnuts of questionable
age. The following items from the Ell

terest by citizens of several hundred Da-
kota towns: 2
"White Oaks will be to Ell Paso what the
Lancashire coal fields have been to Man

A Question in the clubs.

lCor. San francisco ArgonRut.
A question that is matter OF serious dis
cnssion in all the New York clubs Is whether
q member has right to fall asleep in his
chair In any Of the public rooms One side
contend that club Is members home,
and be would take a nap in his chair IL he
were at home surrounded by the members
Of his family. The other side say that It
wonld be impolite and indecorous for a
gentleman to 60 to sleep in his chair in dis
regard Of his guests. and claim that tho
other members are his guests. A third
party IL willing enough that the sleepy
heads should be allowed nap in their
chairs, provided they do not snore or mako
themselves objectionable, but admit ii il
hard to discriminate. It is probable that
sooner or later q room provided with cosy
sofas will be furnished In each club Tor tn

Wagner's Minstre1s.

lists were greeted by good sized audi

fun began at $50 o'clock, and continued,
uninterrupted by tedious waits, for two
hours and a half. The entertainment is
original throughout and of high minstrel
order. Happy Cal" has surrounded him

Burial of Mrs. Russell.

Mrs. II. J. Russell, who died last
Wednesday morning, was buried Sunday
afternoon, the funeral ceremonies taking
place in the Methodist church. Rev. P.
Clare preached very appropriate and
touching ceremony. The worthy di-
vine had known the deceased for years,
having lived with the family in years
agone, and his remarks were proof of the
high esteem in which she was held by him,
as well as all who were blessed with her
acquaintance. The funeral twas largely
attended, among the relatives present be-
ing Mr.. and Mrs John Russell, parents of
the bereaved husband. Mr.. Russell, in
losing his devoted wife, is left with three
helpless children, the youngest being less
than four weeks old.

A Withering Rebuke.

Never was more blighting and crush
ing rebuke administered to man,
than that which the press of the
country is now hurting upon joaquin
Miller, the well known poet and
literateur. And if the venerable weaver Of
verse possesses any of the fine sensibilities
which have given merit to some of his
writings, this open castigation must sting
him to the core. The rea1ers Of the TRI-
BuNE are acquainted with the report that
the poets daughter Maud was recently
compelled to beg assistance at the hands Of
strangers in Chicago; that she was roaming
about the streets of Chicago during one of
the coldest days of the season, thinly clad,
shivering, homeless and discouraged. A
few weeks prior to this unhappy episode,
the poetical Joaquin wrote beautiful es-
say on the duties of man to woman;
admonishing husbands. fathers and
brothers to be kind and protecting to those
OF the gentler sex with whom they meet.
He told them that thestruggling girls, who
have been tossed upon the world to buffet
its storms alone, would be women if they
would be men. So he went on in a very
admirable and touching plea for greater
exhibition Of honor among men in their
dealings and associations with weak and
unprotected tIl girls. And now he is reapin,g
the awful harvest which his apparently
cruel inconsistency has sown. When the
report of his daughters sufferings were
first published, he announced that he knew
nothing Of her destitution; that she was
proud spirited and would not ask him for
| assistance. The daughter says that she
wrote him a letter asking for aid, but that

Trouble at the Post.

It is with feelings akin to sadness that
the TRIBUNE receives the rumor Of mill
tary stew at Fort Lincoln. For many
months past that center of hospitality and
cheer has enjoyed sweet and placid har-
mony, which now, it seems, must be dis
turbed. 1t appears that the Grand Army
post of Fort Lincoln had secured permit
from Major Page for the use of the rink,.o
the evening of their second annual ball
Major Page, being the ranking officer under
Colonel Townsend, acted in the latter's
absence and issued the permit" The
members of the Grand Army post proceed
ed to decorate the riLk, and, after six days
of good, hard work, they had placed it in
readiness for the ball. Never did the cozy
rink present neater appearance. and the
the artistic interior Of the room which
they had prepared for the reception Of
their friends. On Thursday, SO the story
goes, Colonel Townsend returned to the
post and cancelled the permit granted by
Major Page. The result Of this action was
that about six hours before the time for the
opening of the ball room. the soldiers found
vain, and they were without room for
their party. However, they hustled around
and by great exertion succeeded in remov-
ing their decorations into set of vacant
quarters, which they hurriedly arranged for
the occasion. They could see no good rea-
son for the action of Colonel Townsend in
driving them from the rink, and their in
dignation was equaled only by their deter
mination to have good time rink or no
rink. This is the report as brought to the
TRIBUNE, and the friends of all concerned
regret that this little storm of dissatisfac-
ton has appeared in LincOln's usually
placid military and social skies.
