The Dutchman,s Trick.

While a Dutchman was passing
through a city in Vermont, a Yankee
came up to him and said: "Shon, if
you treat me to cider, I viii learn you
a trick" ShOn agreed. Yank then
placed his hand against a fence and
told him to strikeit as hard as he could.
Shon, not thinking that any harm
could befa1 him by doing so, struck a
bIacksmith's blow, but instead of hit
ting Yank's hand, the latter jerking it
away, poor Shon struck the fence
board, knocking it off. "Mein Colt in

you foolish? I knock my hand off

Poor ShOn was bound to have revenge
so one day as he was passing through
a field he espied man. Going up to
him he said "Mynheer, I show you
one little trick for nOdding." As there
was no fence or tree near, Shon put his
hand against his mouth and said
Strike yUst as hard as you can" Myn-
heer struck, and Shon pulled away his
hand and received the blow on his
mouth, and was knocked down. ShOI

CHAPTER XIV
A TERRIBLE ALTERNATIVE.

Toinette went back to her own room.
Though partial success had crowned her
efforts, her wOman's heart was full of
despairing bitterness.
The old spell is broken, she told her
self. "The passionate love Philip once
felt for me has utterly died out, leaving
only pity and contempt. Every tender
thought is given to Dulcie, my dead rival.
I hate her bitterly, even though she sleeps
in a watery grave
Though miserable and dissatisfied, she
felt secure in her position. If it came to
the worst she would defy her guardian
and Guy Vaudeville to their faces. Now
Philip had married her, ne would not re-
main forever aioof, even though he learned
for a certainty that she was IOinette.
@Ah, she murmUred, a sudden light
leaping into her eyes, If L could only gain
possession Of that ring ali would be we'll.
But it is useless to expect such good for
tune. Dulcie's body may never be re-
covered However, If 1 have any tact OF
cunning, the lack OF it shall not be a bar
rier between me and him I love. 1 shall
persOnste Dulcie until satisfied there Is
nothing to be gained by 1t, then acknOWl-
edge the truth and plead the strength OF
my hopeless passion IN eZtenuatlOn Of my
course.
She waited for Philip to show signs OF
reIenting, but he persistently held himself
alOOf. Once or twice she caught a glimpse
Of him wandering dejectedIy In the
grounds, and even placed herself IN the
way; but he declined to take advantage Oh
the opportunity and seek her society,
As the afternoon rolled On, she dressed
herself with elaborate care. Dulcie'i
wardrobe had been we'll supplied by hel
adoring husband. The costume TOinettc
selected was an exquisite combination o.
pale blue silk and red lace. She wore
fragrant blush roses at her belt and IN ne

/ can tell you better. The cunning Jade
who has imposed upon you so success
fully, and meant to entrap you into mar
rying her, is TOinette Lynton, my rum
way ward!
''You ie!" cried Philip, fercely.
But the floor seemed to rock under his
feet; Major Villars' air of conviction had
its effect. His slack arms dropped, and
Toinette must have fallen, but for her
clinging, desperate hold.
philip, she mOaned, piteouslys elf
you fail me now, I am lost. What does
your heart say to you? If I am not
Dulcie, why am here?"
1t was the Majors hooking voice that
replied:
because you believe Dulcie is dead
and have schemed to take her place and
legalize your claim upon the bereaved
husband by so shallow a trick; even a
child might have seen through your little
game.
Philip trembled as he grasped the full
extent of his meaning. If this were SO,
how much would be explained that had
sOrely perpleXed him! The girls changed
appearance, the persistency with which
she had held aIOOf from him, her intense
eagerness to have the marriage ceremony
repeated.
But the look of appeal in those velvety
eyes, the tumbled, golden head resting 30
confdinglY upon his breast, the clinging,
tremulOus clasp of the helpless arms that
encircled his neck, thrilled his heart, and
awakened the determination to stand
vaiantly by the frail little creature,
whether she deserved his championship
! or not.
There was a minutes silence; then ne

BUTTE'S FIRE BUG.
His Slick Work in Trying to Start a
Fire Last Night.

Says this mornings Miner: The incen-
diary who has been keeping the people of
the city on nettles during the past few
weeks attempted to give them another
scare last night, and had it not been for the
vigilance of couple of private watchmen
would, in all probabilities, have succeeded.
His attempt to burn building last night
was made in Mackie & Co.'s carpenter shop
in the rear of Thibault's saloon and al
most adjoining Sherman's barn. which was
destroyed by fire last week, and which fire
was also of incendiary origin. Both the
barn and the building fired last night are
located only few feet distant from the
new Bowes hotel now being built, and in
the same block as the Miner, SO of course,
it is but natural to suppose that the people
of that neighborhOOd were considerably
excited,
The fire was started in box filled with
shavings and other refuse which was stand
ing in corner of the shop and directly
under lot of moulding leaning against
the wall. A broken window allowed the
incendiary to drop match or other light
into the box and to do it 80 quickly that
he was not detected, although two private
watchmen were not over twenty feet away
at the time. They discovered the fire
almost instantly, and breaking open the
doors succeeded in carrying the blazing
box into the alley and extinguishing the
flames before any damage had been done.
How the fellow managed to make his
way into the alley and out again without
being seen by anybody is what the two
watchmen and others would like to know.

The Fair Grounds.

The fair association have actively begun
work on the Helena grounds to effect the
long-talked of improvements Surveyors
are now at work laying out the location
for a regulation race curse. The new
course will be long and narrow, having
two straight quarter stretches on either
side, while the ends will have gradual
curve. The present track is D shaped. A
new high board fence will also Re erected
very soon, and o contract will be let for the
building of very large and cOmmodiOus
grand stand, as well as new floral hall.
The new stand will cost about $40 900, and
is to be located about 100 feet west Of the
present one. The many stables now situ
ated near the approach to the grounds are
to be torn down and large driveway will
be built around the course for teams to
drive.
At the north side new stables will be
built. 1t is expected that the improve
ments will cost about $4,000, and if more
is necessary. Secretary Pope says ii will be
expended, as they propose having the finest
fair and racing grounds in the west.

TELL THE TRUTH.
Sensational Specials from Helena
Founded on Imagination.

The correspondents in Helena who are
working the wires in the interest of Eastern
papers seem to forget that there are in
terests here far more important which have
been affected by these sensational scribblers
while conveying to their employers words
of untruth and detriment to our fair city.
1t was only few days ago that a special
from Helena appeared in the Minneapolis
Tribune, saying that the timber fires had
struck Colorado gulch and were licking up
everything before them, and that Colorado
gulch commenced at the Hotel Broadwater
and ended at Chinatown, in Helena, con-
veying the impression that our city was
endangered. The correspondent should
have known that Colorado gulch is
not within sixteen miles of Hell
ena and don't begin and end
as stated. The effect of these sensational
specials sent from Helena is telling upon
our insurance agents, who are kept busy
telegraphing contradictions to their COM
panies, who have become alarmed that the
whole city of Helena was to be destroyed
from timber fires. Not only that, but
letters have been received from absent
wives asking husbands if their lives were
in danger of the threatened fires that they
learned had environed Helena. Not only
these expressions of anxiety from absent
ones, but the whole country is effected lest
their investments in Helena would come to
naught and that the city would soon be
food for flames. The damage done to our
city by these irresponsible and untruthful
specials is incaculable, and it should be
seen to that no more are sent unless they
are truthful and not detrimental

PRESIDENT Harrison has honored him
self and gratifed every Republican in
Montana in appointing Maj. George o.
Eaton Surveyor General. 1t is position
for which Maj. Eaton has exceptional quail
ifcations. We foresee G speedy change in
the policy of the government in the matter
of the survey of the public lands. They
are going to be surveyed generally so that
settlers will know the boundaries ,of their
claims and and not be left in doubt and
involved in extra expense over claim con-
flicts. What lands honestly and fairly be-
long to the railroads will be set apart to
them, and unless early sold these lands
will be taxed at the same rate as lands of
our citizens. This protracted neglect of
surveying our public lands has been a
costly matter to the government as well as
source of perpetual vexation to. our peo-
pie. We anticipate that Maj. Ea ton will
soon have his hands full of busin ess. 1t
will be no sinecure in his hands.

Wonderful Success of the Plunge Bath
at Hotel Broadwater.

During the construction of the largest
plunge bath in the world at Hotel Broad
water, there were some who questioned the
Judgment of Col. Broadwater in erecting
such a mammoth bath house, imagining
that it would prove an Improbable invest
ment; but these croakers have been pleas
antly disappointed, inasmuch as the plunge
bath has been success from the start and
is rapidly growing in popular favor 1t was
opened to the public last Wednesday night
and the lowest receipts yet for one day
were 5000. On Saturday the receipts were
over $500 and yesterday round $4O0 was
taken in at the window for bath tickets
The secret of its great success is that the
pleasures it affords appeal to all. There is
not a man, woman or child in Helena who
does not enjoy trip to the bath
and plunge in its tepid, mineral waters.
The arrangements are so complete, the ap-
pointments so perfect and the facilities for
bathing so desirable that everybody likes
to 90 there. 1t is a veritable seaside resort
under roof, only the water is more agree
able and the accommodations better For
fifty cents, man, woman or child can rent
bathing suit, have comfortable dressing
room and bathe in the buoyant hot spring
water as long as inclination demands. The
water varies from two feet to nine in depth,
and is kept at an agreeable temperature of
about 80 degrees. Ladies and children can
sport in its waters for more than half the
length of the bath without fear of getting
beyond their depth, while expert swim
mers may dive and disport themselves in
deeper waters. The bottom of the bath
is smooth cement and people can 60 in
barefooted without fear of stone bruises or
scratches.
The bathing suits are rented and the
whole establishment looked after by
skilled corps of polite officials, who see
to the comfolt of visitors. Rules are
strict and are rigidly enforced against
boisterous conduct, loud talking or swear
ing in the bath, and no intoxicated person
is permitted to enter it. Any lady or gen.
tleman can visit the bath at any time with
out fear of insult or offense.
1t is just what Helena has needed for
years and will be better patronized the
better it is known. The pleasures OF a
swim in its delightful waters are known
only to those who have tried it and reVelled
in its luxury.
