Sowise philosopher as Blackie tells
us, "Richter gives it as an excellent an
tidote against moral depression, to call
up in our darkest moments the memo
ry ofour brightest; SO, in the dusty
struggle and often tainted atmosphere of
daily business, it is well to carry about
with us the purifying influence Of high
ideal of human conduct, fervidly and
powerfully expressed. Superstitious
persons carry amulets externally on
their breasts: carry you select store of
holy texts within, and you will be much
more effectively armed against the pow
ers of evil than any most absolute mon
arch behind a bristling body-guard.
Such texts you may find occurring in
many places, from the Kalidasas and
Sakyamunis of the East, to Pythagoras,
Plato, Aristotle, and Epictetus, in the
West; but if you are wise, and above
the seduction Of snowy and pretentious
novelties, you will store our memory
early in youth with the golden texts of
the Old and New Testaments.

Not a few severe criticisms have
been made by foreigners on what has
been called the "bltter observance of
Sunday by the Scotch; but these hasty
critics oughtto have reflected how much
of the solidity, sobriety, and general re-
liability of the Scottish character is ow-
ing to their serious and thoughtful OBJ
servance OF these recurrent periods of
sacred rest. The eternal whirl and fd-
die oflite, so characteristic Of our gay
Celtic neighborS across the Channel,
is apt to beget an eXcitability and a triv-
olitv in the conduct Of even the most Sc
rious affairs, which is incompatibilty
with true moral greatness. If the
Scotch impart somewhat Of an awful
character to pety by not singing ON
Sunday, the French certainly would
march much more steadily, and more
creditably, on the second day of the
week, ifthey cultivated more sober tone
on the first.

The Sea serpent which has so long

bythe Army and Navy Journal in the
following words:
1--WE can vouch for the correctness of
the report, which appears elsewhere, of
theintroduction of Lieutenant Foster,

States steamship Minnesota, to a sea
serpent taking his summer vacation in
the Hudson River. There are other au-
thentic reports of interviews with the ma

none OF them ever saw one so long as that

six hundred feet.

A new material, either woven or telted,
but which of the two the French papers
do not seem to know, is coming into use
in France. 1t is called Berandine, after
the inventor, one Berand. The idea of
it is not very attractive, but the stuff may
be pretty, and no great quantity is likely
to come here this season, whether it be
pretty or ugly.

Imitation laces, especially those Sin
the piece" are very cheap this season.
All the old patterns of Chantilly and
Spanish are reproduced on very well
woven foundations and sold for next to
nothing. These laces are to be worn
over satin, which need not be costly,
and much show and elegance may be
confidently expected.

Costumes for visiting and for day re-
ceptions will be combinations of cloth
with velvet and fur trimmings. As we
have said before, the cloth predominates
in all such costumes, the velvet being
used only as plaStrons, revers, vest, col
lars, cuffs, and panels. The long-Heec-
ed furs will be used for trimming such
dresses, and contrasting colors are com
mended in the furs, such as hget, chin
chiIla, and raccoon turs on the darkest
heliotrope and blue cloths. For more

Astrakhan trimmings will be used again

REPUDIATED.

The Executive Board of the Knights OF
Labor of Distric Assembly, No. 80, OF
Butte, comes out in card which may be
seen upon this page, in which they an
nounce they have,not authorized any per-
son to stump the Territory in the interest
of any political party. We understand
this announcement was called out by the
fact that one Kirby, a Knight OF Labor
belonging to District Assembly No. 80, has
. been travelling with Col. Sanders and elec-
tioneering for that gentleman. He was at
Timberline with Sanders and, we are IN
formed, received mighty cold comfort from
the insulted and injured Knights OF the
place.
Ia order to correct the impression when
may gain ground in the public mind that
this man Kirby represents the pohtlcai
views of the Knights of Labor OF this D's-
trirt this card is issued. Kirby is repudl-
ated by the order as it's mouthpiece. we
cannot see how they can do otherwise OF
how single Kr light OF Labor can vote Tor
Sanders, much lees work for him: His
plain unbroken record in favor OF Chlnese
cheap labor; his public declaration that a
Chinaman is as good as any other Tor
e,gnor, should stand as an eternal bar oe-
tween him and the suffrages OF the worklng'
men of Montana. If, when knowing these
facts, knight OF Labor or any other
laborer casts his vote for Col. Sanders 10,
Delegate in Congress then we are prepared
to believe that the professed loyalty o
that Knight of Labor or laborer to the IN IN
terests of the workingmen OF the country
is siam, a pretense, a worse than mono"

THE REASON WHY.

"What do the Democratic prints mean
by threatening that if Col. SANDERS 10
elected the Montana admission Dill VIII o0
defeated Inter Mountain, 2lst lns''
We are not aware that any "threats
have been made. but fears. and prooao'y
well grounded ones, have been expresseo
that il Col. Sanders shall be elected Mon
tana wi not he admitted into the Union
during his term of office. These fears are
based upon the fact that when Montana
is admitted into the Union as State all
the lands and other property OF the North
ern Pacific Railroad Company under ner
State laws will be taxed; that the Northern
Pacific Railroad Company will, for TINS
reason, oppose the admission OF Mon1ana'
and defer that consummation as long as
possible, or until it's lands in the Territory
are disposed Of: and that the belief has
obtained that Col. Sanders is the Northern
Pacifc's candidate, and that he will be dis'
posed to aid that corporation to the e1'
tent OF his ability in throwing every obsta'
Gle in the way OF Montana reaching State
hood.
The people believe that man who VIII
prevent another road from entering tnt
Territory to the detriment OF the people
thereof and to the interest OF the road M
represents, would also not scruple to con
tinue his work for that corporation te
which he would owe his election II he b'

that the lands depredated
