A Four ear-nId's StrOSe of Luck.

A little four year-old Macon girl has
just met with a happy streak of good
luck. Her father was a United States
officer, lately deceased, and by reason OF
that fact his daughter was entitled TO a
pension, but there has been some delay
IN getting the redtape papers in shape
and having the pension granted. A day
or two since the mother of The child re-
ceived the intelligence that pension
arrears for the past years of the chiid's
life had been allo we'd, amounting to
about 5000, and that she would be granted
$3.50 pension per month until she was
16 years old thus making the pension per
year 1924 which can clothe and feed her.
The mother will put it away es nest egg
for the child, along with the $500. As the
little girl is now years old, she will re-
ceive this pension of 1924 per annum for
II years, total of S2808, which, added to
the $500, makes $34U8 principal, to say
nothing of the interest which will accrue
during these years, which Will swell the
amount at leass to $4,000, which will be
quite snug sum for the pretty miss
when she reaches sweet sixteen.

Montana. 1t will be the leading wool
market of the territory as we'll az princi-
pal stock shipping point, and hence the
headquarters of many interested in these
industries. The grand natural scenery
will attract tourists from all parts of the
world, making Great Falls the f~avorite
summer resort of the northwest. Nature
has been so lavish in the bestowment of
all the elements of greatness upon Great
Falls that the complement is complete
not a single thing lacking-and that it
will advance rapidly in wealth, popula-
ton and influence does not admit of doubt.

PROGRESS OF M0NTANd.

As Great Falls is identified with
the general growth of Montana, some
information on The progress of the
territory during the year 1887 will be
proper.
The year began with grave misgiv-
ings regarding the grazing interest,
which is SO closely connected with all
others. It was feared that the losses
of cattle would be heavy and wide
spread owing to the severity Of the
winter. The full extent of these losses

orally enjoyed much prosperity. The
productiyeness of Cascade county was
such that the general land office d.
rected that no desert land filings
should be received from it.
Remarkable progress was made in
railroad building in this territory last
year. The most notable achievement
was the construction of the Montana
extension of the Manitoba railroad
(Minot to Great Falls, which was
completed in October, and was
celebrated by public reioicings in
this city. The construction of
that railroad was soon followed by
the completion of the Montana Cen
trail from Great Falls to Helena,
whence the road has been partially
built to Butte. Work was begun to-
ward the close of the year on the
Sand Coulee and Belt Mountain
branch Of the Montana Central, which
will be completed early this year. The
Northern Pacific railroad built some
branch lines in Montana last year, and
many projects e proposed by
towns and districts which may soon
mature.
In general, the past year has served
to advance Montana to high rank in
railroad and industrial circles. The
improvements are in the main pro-
ductive, and insure an era of prosper
ity for the great territory which is
soon to be a state.

a certain amount of protection to
home manufacturers. The freight
rates for raw material are low.
Finally, public sentiment will cordi-
ally encourage all manufacturing
industries.

Another thing that adds to the
attraetiveness of Great Falls as a
place of residence is the picturesque
Broadwater bay. Experts pronounce
it a splendid course for aquatic sports.

The attempt to force upon the pub
lie schools of Saint Louis an obliga-
ton to give special instruction in the
German language at an annual ex-
pense of $4,000 was recently voted
down by a majority of 1000 in a
school board election. The platform
of the majority was: No language
but the English should be taught at
public expense in the public schools"

coulee and is completing a branch
line from Great Falls to the mines
a distance of IA miles. Great Falls
receives coal from these mines, but
the Montana Central railroad is de-
veloping them on a large scale, with
the intention of supplying Helena,
Butte and other mining regions. At
Bozeman the outputof the coal mines
las increased, and a railroad is being
built from the neighborhood of Bill
lings to the Rocky Fork mines. The
explorations throughout the territory
prove beyond a doubt that Montana
has inexhaustible fields of good coal.
During the past year tillage has
abundantly rewarded the farmer. I'm

and other vegetables have been raised,
afording actual proof of the capacity
of this territory to attain high rank
among the grain, vegetable and fruit

duced good wheat crops, while the
