One of the chief factors contributing
more largely than any other to the
rapid settlement in this region was
the building of the Northern Pacific
Railroad through these important
States and Territories. Its construc-
ton was made possible by the liberal
grant Of lands made for that purpose
by the general Government. The line
was opened for through traffic about
two years ago, and considering the
progress already made in develop
ing the rich agricultural, grazing.
timber, mineral and other native re-
sources of the broad belt of country
which it traverses, it is safe to predict
that at no distant day this region of
the West viii count its inhabitants by
millions. and the amount of wealth its
people will realize can scarcely be esti.
mated.

Dropping in at \. F. Burners studio one day that painter said that Jefferson had called on him but half an hour pre- viously, and on seeing some of his newer work expressed surprise that he should have departed from his Venetian sub jects, which had a commercial value higher than anything he had then under taken. "COnfOund it, ejaculated Bun ner, you wouldn't have a man do one thing all the time, would yous" The words had barely left his lips when he re- membered that Jefferson was to play Rip that night for the thOusandth time or so. and he hastened to gloss the assertion. but the actor winced and flushed, show ing that the dart had gone home He was readier ir his reply to slight by Charles Mathews; Tt is better to play one part in different ways than to play many parts all in one way.

AFTER DINNER IN ENGLAND.
Aa Agreeable Hour. and How I, Is Spent
 -Harfous CuStoms.


 After the ladies leave the room the host invariably changes his place, and port, sherry, and elaret are placed before him The servants now disappear. the guests draw up their chairs and pass the bottle themselves, always to the left, and many take this opportunity to select companion for the after dinner talk. It may be ungallsnt, but l confess that l often found this hour the most agreeable of the day. The English men of position are generally very well bred when they are by themselves; more of them are highly educated than is common with Americans of importance; they have passed their lives among works of art and in the atmosphere of high politics. They know pictures and china as we'll as game and wine. They have not only seen the famous places, but met the famous psO- pie of other countries, and they make, on the whole, the most agreeable atter-din- ner company in the world. To stranger they are especially amiable. If he Is inter ested in English life, they tell him all he wishes to know; they invite his criticisms, and if they sometimes say something dis- paraging of his own countrymen or of the institutions under which he was born, It is not in an offensive way. As men of the world they offer an opinion, which you may accep, or dispute as you choose, and they are not affronted if you censure mildly in return. They are genial over their wine, but not quarrelsOme nor in- decOrOus.
 After dinner conversation and cards form the principal amusement Some times there Is music, but not often, for the English are not artists in tempera- ment or taste; they do not make good music, nor, as a rule, do they keenly ap- preciate it. They have higher relish Tor painting and sculpture and architecture- something that they can see and handle. Music is too imaginable for the burly British nature to grasp. But whist or round game is invariably proposed. The stakes usually small, but no one plays without some wager. At times the play CTS become very intent, and can recall instances of gross illbreading over the cards; a testy old peer or stnSy do"ager was commonly at fault.
 In many houses the hostess rises at II, and this the ladies know IS their signal Good nights are exchanged, every body shakes hands, seltzer and brandy and sherry are brought in for those who wish them, and the SehtleIhrh hsHt tAS OSu rom candles for the ladies Then the whole company moves out to the loot or the great staircase, and the procession Of ladies ascends to the upper galleries, the graceful girls in pink and white and the sumptuOus matrOns in velvet and dia- monds, each carrying her candle, while the portraits of vanished ancestors look down on the scene where they, too, once played a brilliant part.
 The men finger for while, but are soon invited to the smoking room. For this | they usually change their dress. When l | first went to England only few wore smoking jackets, but latterly in many | houses the men came down toward mid | night in georgeOus satin suits, with varie- | gated trousers and caps. and the effect Is ye-y tSiTCsque.-Adam Badeau's Let Ter

Begging for Old Shoes

The sight of heap of more or less we'll worn shoes at my bOOtmaker's led me tO ask him what he did with the boot gear his customers left when they replaced it with new. T used to sell 1t to the second hand dealers" he said, but now give it away. Men come in here every day to beg old shoes, and it is rarely that I have a dozen pairs to spare He added that the same cal is made on the matters for cast off hats. The problem as to what become If the pins is still unsOlved, however, I see that some German genius, with an ev- ident weakness for useless knowledge, has, after many years of minute and ex- haustive calculation, decided that a few over half a million pins are lost every day in Europe alone. As the rate Is prob ably uniform the world over, it suggests that the earth must be the biggest pin cushion within the ken of mortal man In Berlin by the way, thero is an old clothes charity, where cast-off clothing is ,nended and dispensed tO the needy by some charitable Indies, who solicit and collect their stock from house to house.
