As usuAL, the tone OF the Berlin dis.
patches at the end of tho week have a
bellicose ring, and assert that the wal
party triumphs in St. Petersburg. In
spite of the pacific assurance of the Rus.
sian Minister OF Finance the other day
that the Russian budget is arranged with a
view to the continuation of peace, assur-
ances are received that the work on the

while the German legislative bodies are re-
ported to be fired with a warlike spirit.
All of which keeps up the excitement and
prevents interest from tagging.

IT is admitted that there are owned in
Butte a good many fine specimens of vari.
III breeds of dogs as well as fancy chickens.
and a movement has been agitated by their
owners to make preparations for a bench
show some time in the spring. The pro-
posal is to have it open to the Territory
and to secure the presence at it of as many
prize competitors as possible. The idea
is a good one. Bench-shows have been
profitable exhibitions elsewhere, and there
is no reason why one should not pay here
as the display is one in which many besides
the possessors Of the specimens exhibited
take q keen interest.

FROM the time when Territoris were frs

FROM the time when Territoris were first
established to the present. it is asserted by
those who profess to speak by the card. it
has been the invariabIe custom OF the
senior Judge OF a Territorial Supreme
Court to assume as a prescriptive right the
chair OF tho chief Judicial District. Judge
McLeary, in taking the assignment to the
Second District Of Montana, it is stated,
is in line with presidents questioned by the
United States Supreme Court as far back
as 1878. The people Of this
district felt and expressed q pref
erence for their own fellow citizen,
Colonel Do Wolf, to be assigned here. Now
it is asserted this would be contrary to
precedent. Great Is precedent! Like the
laws OF tire Modes and Persians it varietb
not, neither hath it any shadow of turn.
ing. Butte accepts it's dictum, and will
give it's new Judge a hearty welcome. 1t
trusts he will find his lines here cast in
pleasant places, p~leasanter than n other
portion OF the district. Tbe salubrity OF
Butte, together with it's social advantages, !
make it the most desirable place Of resi-
dence the coming Judge-can select.

weather rival those from any other section.
They lack food and fuel in the southwest
ern counties, and the restitution is 20
great that relief has been urgently applied
for with the assurance that if not speedily
furnished hundreds will die. Horses and
cattle are frozen in their stal lis and the
casualties among stock exceed any pre-.

of anything up ois way so far. When a
cold spell strikes these southern ATTITUDES
it causes far moro misery than it does in

The Fecundity of Fish.

1t has been calculated that, as fish
produce 80 many eggs, if vast number:
of the latter and of the fish themselves
were not continually destroyed and
taken. they would soon fill up every
available space in the seas. For in
stance, from 6O,OOO,OOO to 10000, O0c
Goldfish are annually caught on the
shores of Newfoundland. But even
that quantity seems small when it is
considered that each cod yields about
4,500,000 eggs every season, and that
even 100000 have been found in the
roe of a single cod. Were the 60, OOO,.
900 cod taken on the coast of New.
found left to breed. the 30.000,000 fe-
males producing 100000 eggs every
year, it would give a yearly addition OF
10000, 100000 young Goldfish. Other
fish, though not equalling the cod, are
wonderfully prolific. Aherring weigh
ing OF. or 7oz. is provided with about
$4,000 eggs. After making all reason
able allowances for the destruction OF
eggs and the young it has been estima-
ted that in three years a single pair OF
herrings would produce $4,000, 900.
Button calculated that, if a pair of her
rings could be left to breed and multi.
ply undisturbed for period of twenty
years, they would yield an amount OF
fish equal in bulk to the globe on which
we live.-N Y. Post.

EXPENSIVE WORK.
What Gilded Domes Cost In This Country
and Russia.

and Russia.
The dome of the Boston State House
is the most conspicuous object in that
interesting city, with, from some points
of approach, the single exception OF
Bunker Hill Monument. The gray
color of the latter tends in most con-
ditions of the atmosphere to render it
imperceptible, while the gilded dome
of the State House in gray weather is
visible by contrast and in sunshine it
sparkles and glistens so as to attract
the eye from every direction.
For some years the gliding has been
gradually disappearing, and it is now
to be regilded. An exchange gives us
the following facts: 1t will take $3.50
books of gold leaf to gild the dome.
Each book contains twenty sheets OF
gold leaf, each sheet containing a little
over nine and one-third square inches.
The sheets are so thin that one thou.
sand of them laid one on the other
make but an inch in thickness. The
gold is within q carat of pure, anG
wei CHS three and one nall POUNDS Troy.
Each book is worth 20 cents, so that
the gold leaf alone cost 81, 032. 1t will
take fifteen skilled workmen six weeks
to do the job.
But what small and inexpensive
transaction is this compared with the
scale upon which such work is done in
Russia. The great cupola OF st.
Isaac's Cathedral, in st. Petersburg,
is sheeted with copper and overlaid
with gold. Its diameter is Sc feet, and
1S6 pounds of solid gold were used to
gid it. The top of this great cupola
is 296 feet But even this amount OF
gliding is small compared with that on
the Church of st. Saviour, at Moscow,
which has five immense cupolas gilded
with 900 pounds of solid gold.-Chrts-

| now has come a strange saddleless
horse; but they are too bewildered to
know it. This horse slowly marks the
course guided by the men driving, and
at last leads within the half-concealed
seclusion the thirteen prisoners.
Once there the wild horses are wild
no longer. They are captives sure and
safe. They may rest, and Craze, and
drink. but escape they can not.
A day or two afterward the prelim-
mary breaking to halter is done. This
is both dangerous and exciting work.
The wild animal is caught by rope
and thrown. While down, chOked into
half insensibility, the jacquima is adj
justed. This is a moose loop, and when
frightened hurts the sensitive mouth OF
the unbroken animal terribly. Next
comes the saddle, ofttimes requiring
an hours patient work to adjust. But
when once in place and the rider on
the back that has never borne a bur-
den, the final struggle is made until
the man conquers and the free, fear
less. swift-limbed Pegasus OF the plains
is servant.
Last year Bell caught forty horses.
He drove them to Nebraska and sold
them for about sixty dollars each. This
year he has caught but half the num-
Der, and regretfully says that tho day
of the wild horse is over. One source
of revenue. which has been no small
consideration during the last five years
to the horse-catcherS, was the bounty
paid for stray animals found in the
bands. The Colorado Live Stock Asso-
citation has paid fifteen dollars head
for all such horses and they are then
turned over to the owners up N the re-
payment of this money. The offering
of this reward became necessity, be-
cause il there is one trick wild horse
knows better than another and will
always. play it is to coax off with him
into career OF perpetual truancy
every animal of his class he chances to
find. The wild horse of Colorado par
ticularly has always been superior
animal in point of appearance. fleet
ness, and endurance to those running
in Texas or on the ranges farther north.
Why this is so is not unexplaina5le,
but it is fact that in the bands along
the Platte and Republican rivers the
animals have always been found lar
ger and better, more particularly for
saddle use. There are in Denver now
number of attractive saddle horses,
highly priced by their owners, that
but three or four years ago roamed at
their own sweet will among the succu-
lent pasturage of Eastern Colorado
and knew neither bit nor spur.-Chi-
cdQO Times.
