How sunday 10 Spent ut Biiiings.

Sunday was q gala day at Billings.
The whole town had q picnic. A
couple Of Miles City youths were going
up to saltwater to catch the sportive
trout, and when passing Billings re-
port that the people were having q
regular hallelujah. The meaning Of
such festivities was to celebrate the
arrival Of the first train from the east
for twenty-four hours. When the
train was pulling into town the Bill.

from an alleyway and start down
Main street toward the depot. The
train beat the band by seventeen and
half seconds. by Elgin movement, and
cast anchor. The band came along ut
quick march, playing "Glory for All
Good Things" When IL reached the
depot, the man playing the "B fat"
instrument gave loud toot, and they
all rushed to q email boy who held
something In his hand. "What was

A Bonanza Mine.

The long tunnel driven by Phil
Shenon to tap the Bannsck mine, and
open the way to developing other
mines in close proximity to 1t, has de-
veloped bonauza of great magnitude,
the equal of which has never been
opened In any part of Montana. The
tunnel was advanced through a hard
formation several hundred feet, and
tapped the Bannack deep down, or
about 400 feet in depth. The ore-vein
at this depth is something wonderful
In size and the quality Of ore is high
grade. At the depth Of 400 feet from
the surface the cross-cut developed Q
very strong vein Of ore, the average
assay Of which Is over one hundred
ounces in silver to the ton. Some Of
our most experienced and reliable
mining men-practical mining oper-
ators say they can take up the Ban
mack mine and show up millions o
dollars worth Of good ore In . month
or two Of time. The showing IN the

Things Lively In Prickiy Pear.

The prospects are there will be some
lively railroad work in the Prickly
Pear canyon soon. That is q rather
differ place to build one road and
will prove much more SO for two. The
Northern Pacific surveyors are now
out and the Montana Improvement
company, with big force, will be in
the field ere long. There is no reason
to doubt that the Northern Pacific
means business, and they will be
likely to push operations with vim
unkn own in railroad build
ing in Montana. One good and suffi-
cient reason for building this line
from Helena rather than from any
other point. is the fact that the COM
pany wants direct line between the
mines Of Butte, Helena and adjacent
districts and the coal fields of northern
Montana. Mother route will givethem
such a direct line, and we have no
doubt this fact had an important
bearing in determining the issue. The
traffic that the mines of Montana give
and will give the railroads is more i'm
portant than any other consideration.
A railroad that will assist in develop
ing mines takes precedence Of all
others, and this fact weighed largely
in determining the route.of the North
ern Pacific branch into northern Mon
tany. By tapping the coal fields oil
this section the Montana Central
would have too great an advantage
over the Northern Pacific, so that the
latter company had no resources but
to extend q branch in the same
direction.

De Mores' Last scheme.

1t Is further learned in regard to the
Marquis de Mores. than what was con-
tanned in st. Paul papers that his new
company has capital stock of $1,000
600 of which $1,000, 600 is preferred
stock and the same amount common,
which was subscribed by De Mores
and Baron Won Hoffman, they put
ting into the new organization their
Medora plant and cold storage houses
along the line of the Norther Pacific
and other property at q valuation Of
5000 A river frontage of eleven
miles on the Little Missouri is also in
cluded in this property. The Marquis
will arrange with Montana stock men
to furnish him 100 cattle per day for
slaughtering, and shipping in refrig-
orator cars to their retail butcher
shops of New York city. He will
build immense feeding sheds, fatten
his own stock, and also take for fat
tening purposes stock from other cat
tie men, charging them twenty-five
cents per day for feed. The success Of
the undertaking lies in the fact, 1t Is
said, that cattle can be fattened from
barley and distillery marsh or refuse,
in two years where it will require five
on the range. This feed will be ship
ped from Milwaukee for the present,
but an immense distiliery will be built
at Medora at once to utilize the Mon.
tana barley. Stock men will turn
their cattle into the feeding sheds of
the company and receive certificates
that can be used as bankable paper,
on which money can be borrowed,
which cannot now be done
by them without giving chattel mort
cages on the stock.

Lumber for the Ditch Company.

Lumber for the Ditch Company.
L. A. Lay and Frank Sebastian were
awarded the contract yesterday for
supplying the timber for the Miles
City Irrigating Ditch company. The
contract calls for SOO,O 900 feet, and the
bid of the gentlemen named was the
only one submitted. The timber will
be sawed up the Tongue river about
thirty miles and RATED down. The
ditch company has a mill built at
Stebbing Gulch, and will ship 1t from
Rosebud into the timber country and
saw the logs there. The work Of raft
ing will not commence before the
June rise of the river, there not be
ing sufficient depth of water now in
the river to carry on the work. The
sawmill has capacity of $1,000 to
20, 900 feet per day of twelve hours
run, but it will be necessary to run
about sixteen hours day to get the
work done in time. The mill will be
situated about fifteen miles from the
river and fifteen four-horse teams will
be required to haul the lumber to the
place where the RATS will be made up.
The contract for hauling this lumber
will be advertised in a few days. This
lumber is for building the dam, thir-
teen miles up the Tongue river, and
for building fumes, ct cetra. Work
on the dam will be commenced about
September, or as soon as the water in
the river reaches minimum in depth.
II 1t was commenced now, the high
water would destroy all that had been
accomplished.

pianos instead Of forties, you'd a-made
1t In three and a quarter" The mean
ing Of this could not be understood,
but inquiry elected the fact that the
band always starts by stop-watch, and
the watch stops when the band stops.
When the music was over. fat man,
wearing white vest, with three but
tons missing, calls out, Now, boys,
let's give 'em go, and make IL q
good 'un," anda chorus of seventy
seven voices, to an echo, hurrahed,
while a Juvenile band of color proudly
waved banners. The conductor of the
train was, OF course, almost overcome
In receiving such welcome. but was,
nevertheless. able TO thank the band
and citizens in very appropriate Ian
guage English according to Mason's
GRAMMAR, and invited the band to go
up the track short distance with
him. The fat man with the buttons
missing said they would have done
things up in much better shape if
And as he pointed to q build
building OH which flag was sporting
with the breezes at half-mast, large
tear trickled down his Apollo cheek,
falling on one Of his shoes and laying
waste to the shine he had recently
paid two bits for. What is the flag
at hslf-mast for?" asked the conduc-
tor of the citizens, who could not con-
troll their grief.
The fat man with the minus buttons
gave one prolonged sigh and then An
swered in behalf of the gathering, he
being recognized at the spokesman:
"Our dear fellow townsman and ed.
itor of the Gazette, Mathieson, was
yesterday informed by the towns
family physician that there was little
hope for him unless he went to the
Hot Springs, and thither he has gone,
and we do miss him sadly"
The conductor asked the band to
play "Pansy Blossom" and they would
then move on, but the boy who car
ried the stop watch had gone to join
some Of his chums at game of mar.
bles and the band had nothing to start
from. So they got on the train and
the one playing the bass drum paid q
boy fifteen cents to go along and carry
his book, which calls hell sheol, and
he would guarantee to dead-head him.
So the train moved away from q
cheering populace. The band went to
Park City and returned in the evening
worn out with the effort of the day.

THE memory of Torquemada and the
,nouisition is revived by such occurrences
as this at wilkesbarre, Pa; John Dali
ey. who recently abjured Catholicism, at
tempted to preach in River Park this al
ternoon, but was prevented by mob OF
fully 5000 persons, including some OF the
toughest element OF the mining region,
who attempted to throw him into the
Susquehanna river. Had it not been Tor
the interposition of the police, who were
present in strong force, Daley would
doubtless have been seriously injured, II
not killed. He was finally escorted home
by officers, followed by an infuriated
crowd who made violent efforts to lay
hands upon him, but were beaten off by
the police.
Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1886-06-24

TO-DAY is set apart by the senate for
the consideration of the Fitz John Porter
bill. There is hardly any doubt that 1t
win pass. A majority, even in the Re-
publican senate, demand the correction
of an Injustice that has weighed upon an
honorable officer for more than twenty
years. The house has passed the bill for
Porter's relief. The senate has but to
concur, and the presidents signature
will complete the act that wipes from the
record stigma upon the honor and rep
utation of one OF the brOvest soldiers OF
the war
There will be bitter and violent opposi-
ton to the bill, led by Logan, but enough
Republican senators will vote with the
Democrats to give a majority for it. A
similar bill to that now before the senate
was passed by 1t and by the house In 1884,
but Arthur vetoedit. He was then can
dldato for the Republican nomination,
and imagined that by showing hostility
TO Porter he could help his cause along,
but the result was different from his ex'
pectatlons He met the defeat his dema'
gogism so richly deserved. No danger OF
a veto threatens the bill now, and 1t will
be signed by President Cleveland witt
pleasure and alarcity.
