The Late Election


An iceberg is the SEA end OF a glacier or
frozen river The glacier is being continu-
ously pushed INTO the sea from the weight
above and finally great MASSES become de-
tached Sometimes these MASSES break up
into comparatively small pieces, and are
called drift ice, if they form fiat sur
faces it Is called field or foe ice,
and. when they are piled up, they
are called icebergs, that is, ice noun
tainS There are more icebergs in summer
than In winter In winter the lower polar
regions are a mass OF ice, and 1t is not until the
sun begins TO exert his influence that the
southern movement Of the ice begins
In March the mid Atlantic Is warm and
the polar sea cold, the winds, in consequence,
blow from the north to the south, and inpel
the floating ice and bergs in the same direc-
ton. Drift and foe ice soon melt in the
warm current which flows over the Banks Of
Newfoundland. hut icebergs being SO thick
float down as low as latitude 10 In crossing
the ocean from here to England, the track Of
the ocean steamship carries them diagonally
across the Iceberg tracks, and there is danger
Of collision daring a fog in daytime or the
darkness of the night A steamer at full
speed sighting an iceberg dead ahead half a
mile could not stop or back in time to avoid
a crash Therefore, nearly all steamers take
a southerly course from March to August, or
until the iceberg season is considered over. A
correspondent in Golden Days tells the story
OF German ship that went to pieces on an
lccterg In latitude - degs The crew took
refuge on the ice, built hut out Of wreck
age and spent eight months drifting around,
until they were picked up III latitude Al degs,

The True ReasOn-Wash Day Made Easy.
There is reason in everything, but not
every reason given is true. About washing
clothes, for instance, common sense and the
chemistry of everyday life teach us that GER
tain things must be done, while others may
be left undone. Clothes must be made
clean. sweet, pure and wholesome without
either injuring the fabric or the hands of the
laundress. If these objects can be attained
it does not matter as to what methods are
used, and the soap or soap powder, no mat
ter what it is called, that will admit of the
most varied methods of use is the handest
Some things, however. are important to
observe. The dirt and all soap must be en-
tirely removed from the interstices of the
clothes & Id all microbes must be destroyed.
The only and easiest way to do this 10 by
heating the water in which the clothes are
contained to the boiling point. The boiling
water, by constant self agitation. is forced
through the interstices of the fabrics, and
thus cleanses them from dirt, and disease
breeding microbes. as they can be clea, sed
in no other way-and without in any man
neT injuring the fabric As there is no
royal road to learning, neither is there any

A special from Washington says E.
L. Bonner, president of the Montana I'm
provement Company, has been in the city
some days past trying to arrange with
the general land Office for the dismissal
of the suits against the company for
cutting timber on public lands in Mon
tana. There are about twenty suits
against the company, involving the cut
ting of 36,OOO,OOO feet of timber, 1884,
700 cords of wood, 10000 posts and 49,,
100000 shingles. Bonner asserts this
timber was cut during the construction
of the Northern Pacific road and was
used in its construction. For this reason
he says the suits cannot be maintained.
The agents of the general land office
claim, however, the timber was all cut
since the construction of the road in 1888,
1884 and 1885. Special District Attor-
ney Hobson, who is prosecuting these
cases, is in the city to oppose Bonner's
purpose.
A special from Washington says that
the Indian bureau has heard nothing re-
garding the alleged outbreak of the
Kootenais Indians in Northwestern
Montana, and cannot understand why
such a threatening outlook has not re-
suited before this in a call for and from
the interior department. The Flathcads
are entirely cxonerated from the charges
made, as it is known that the Flatheads
never had trouble with the whites and
have never been known to kill IA white
man. The Ko0tenais are about one thou
sand strong and have been disposed to be
arrogant and quarrelsome. About half
of them are wanderers IN Idaho without
an agent, and they occasionally visit
| their brethren on the Flathcad rcscrva-
ton, where they never fail to stir up a
wandering spirit and cause brawl with
some of the people in the vicinity of the
reservation. The department believes
that the threatened outbreak is nothing
but little local quarrel that Will amount
to little.
