We notice that the steamer "Ferno has

city, the construction of mills and smelt'
ers, the opening of the coal mines, the
construction of railroads and the increase
in population have far surpassed my pre-
dictions or most sanguine expectations.
The population is almost if not quite
2,000 the business houses are equal IN
size aud solidty to the hest in any of our
cities. The dwellings are new in style
and handsome in appearance. Blocks of
lots have been donated for church and
school buildings and public parks and
drives. Trees have been planted on many
| lots and streets Electric light plants,
gas and water works have been planned,
and soon will be in operation. An ably
edited daily newspaper gives m account
of all events which transpire and spreads
abroad information as to the business and
growth of the city and the surrounding
country. Splendid and well stocked
stores supply all with goods at almost
eastern prices and buy everything the
farmer produces. Indeed the home mar
ket is exceptionally good for the farmer
and stOckgrower. A fine grst mill buys
all the grain and manufactures flour Of a
quality unsurpassed. Two hourishing
banks furnish ample accommodations for
the business community. One Of the best,
il not the largest and finest equipped hotels
in this territory easily accommodates and
entertans the more than 200 guests from
Helena, who are gathered here today, at
the invitation Of the Montana Central
Railway company. Two substantial iron
bridges, each 1000 feet in length span
;he great river, one for railroad and the
other for wagon purposes. The Manitoba
'ailroad connects the city with the great
ystem of the country at st. Pauland Du-
nth, while the Montana Central now con-
lects Great Falls with Helena, and will
" the 4th Of July be completed to Butte,
he greatest mining centre in the known
'orld. The Sand Coulce branch is com
leted and will be speedily extended to
,eihart. where are ineXhaustible quaint
es of lead, silver and iron ores. We
ave all rode on the branch to the smell

The senator Jones of nevada has always
been ready to take great chances. He be-
lieves sincerely in the outside help that comes
from no one knows where to shape circum-
stances around the path of a lucky man so
that success is certain. AS an illustration of
the peculiar luck which he has had at all times
during his life when he has once given his
| mind to hunting for specific result the sena

was a sheriff of certain county in Califor

was no road to it; it was u most fatiguing

difficult, owing to the necessary climbing up

as it would have been twenty-five upon
the open highway. | had one of my deputies
with me- We were out seeking for certain
violators of the law. About midday we had
traversed half the distance necessary to go

tobacco, when to my CONSERVATION found
that | had no matches and no mate

what should do turned around and saw

up the match | said to myself: OF course

The ladies of the New Church gave anoth-

tended. The following programme was rem

Braidlng the May Pole...A company Of Children
Vocal Seiection-"John Brown" ..........,.
Music. Banios and Guitars
Exhibition of the Humanophone. j. L. osgood
All of the exercises were very pleasing,
and creditable to the performers. John
Brown and the Humanophone were very
novel and amusing. The former was sung
by nine ladies and gentlemen, dressed as
ghosts, who, after slow march to the music
of dirge, in dim light, sang the old famil-
lar words, leaving off word and ghost at
each repetition of the air. At last no one
is left on the stage except John" When
he disappeared all sang GLORY HallelulahI
The Humanophone consisted OF a musical
scale of eight notes. The regular notes
were displaced by human faces. The notes
or faces, as they were called at the baton OF
the conductor, rendered various exercises
and several musical airs. 1t was introduced
by short and witty address by the conduc.
tor. The instrument, the only living one In
the world, was characterized as being unsur-
passed for rendering fascinating and face
tious music with facility, especially when
the do-face is enlightened by so-la-ra lsolar
ray. from above. Mr., Parker, celebrated
selections. Great credit is due to the conf
mittee of arrangements, Misses Minnie
Howe and Fannie Gordon, for the success of
the evenings entertainment.
