OUR BRIGHT FUTURE.

2 And here in peerless Montana, where
nature has made such great profusion
of the precious metals which will have to
be separated by these means, we may
look for the hand of science to direct the
conservation of the great energies, the
immeasurable energies that are here con
centrated in the Great Falls of Montana
to direct these to useful and beneficial
purposes not alone for the people of
Great Falls, but for the people of Mon
tana who are interested in the mines of
this country. Applause,l As l have
stated to You before the great elements in
the metallurgy of the minerals of this
country are heat and force and labor The
first two you have here in inexhaustible
supply: the latter may be early supplied;
and you have but to go on with the ener-
gy which characterizes the people of this
community to develop these resources, to
take advantage of these great opportuni-
ties which have been presented to you
and you will surely secure to yourselves
the appellation which every citizen Of
Montana will be proud to concede to you
that Great Falls shall be the manfactur'
ing metropolis Of the great state of Mon
tana. Loud applause.

CRASHED THROUGH 4 BRIDGE.


Nine Lives lost in a RaiIFoad Accident
Near st. George, Ont.
ST. GEORGE, Ont, Feb. Is, 1sS9.-The st.
Louis express plunged through a bridge
just east Of this station last evening.
Nine persons were killed, and about thirty
were wounded. A broken tire on an
engine wheel caused the accident.
The bridge was an iron structure, sixty
feet high. The dining car stood up end
wise, the occupants piled together at the
bottom with a mass of dishes and tables.
The car was iron, and it was nearly inn
possible to rescue the imprisoned people.
Fire threatened to sweep over them. One
man was taken out very little hurt, but a
woman near him, whose shrieks were for
a time heartrending, died before she could
be taken out. Two men were sitting
together in this car, n was instantly
killed and the other badly hurt but not
hopelessly injured.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sendall, of Detroit, were
in the train on their wedding TT ip. Mr..
Sendali was in the smoking car, and was
slightly hurt. His wife was III a car which
fell from the bridge and turned COM
pletely over. She was badly hurt. Thomas
L. Doutney, the temperance lecturer, had
his leg broken. George Forbes, of New
York, is among the injured.
The killed include George Teggat, of
Mitchell; William Wemp, of London; DR..
Swan and A. w. Francis, of Woodstock;
Mr.. Mclean, of the firm of Mclean &
Beecher, of Detroit; Mr.. Bains, of Hamil-
ton, and Captain Moore, of Brantford,
both of the Salvation Army; Mr.. Peers, of
Woodstock, and a woman, unknown.

A.
go with oil cans and kerosene lamps'
but the meter goes on forever Just the
same. We know a man who shut up
his house and went to the country for
a month last year, and his gas bill was
seventy-tve cents higher that month
than it had been for the n previous.
The meter had become so accustomed
to its work that it went right on
in the same old methodical way, despite
the fact that no lights were burned.
We do not see that Mr.. Feeney's bill
touches this matter of the meter. An
amendment making the instrument
liable for an action to be brought with
a stuffed club, in case it registered
more than 1900 feet for every 800 con-
sumed would do the public a great
service.

Criticism in Hoboken on the New Scale OF
School Salaries.
Considerable dissatisfaction is expressed
by the teachers of the public schools OF
Hoboken at the measure proposed by
Trustee McCulloch at the last meeting of
the Board of Education. The disapproyal
of his action is general. Although the
petition for increased pay was signed by
Several principals and vice principals and
teachers, it was not their intention to OBJ
tain it at the expense of other teachers.
I was speaking to a lady teacher about
the matter today. She said that for sew
eral wears past it had been the aim of the
Board Ito reduce salaries. The salaries
paid are already very small, and q few
more reductions would leave us nothing.
The petition in the present case Is a very
fair one, and the Board could easily afford
to grant a just request in q small matter
like this, instead of wasting thousands of
dollars for experiments in other directions.
The Boards appropriation is by no means
exhausted, and there is plenty of money to
devote to teachers salaries.
Outside Of school circles the DISPOSE
ton to eoonomize at the expense of the
teachers is very adversely criticised. 1t is
considered preposterOus 50 even anticipate
reducing the salaries of hard worked
teachers to make up the claims OF those
who profess to be harder worked.

Sin, and a laughing girl. Group three

A MAN with five names, every one OF
which he appears to have disgraced,
as well ashis title of Duke.o of Suther-
land, has obtained a license to marry
Mrs. Blair, the widow OF an English
army officer. When the late Duchess
of Sutherland was alive the dukes
relations with Mrs. Blair and others
were so s%candalous that the Prince of
Wales demonstrated with him. Their
conversation was e reported,
which was a pity, for it must have
been one of the most CHASTITY humorous
efforts of the century. The Prince is
said to enjoy these moments when the
presence of a particularly immoral
member of the nobility gives him the
gratifying sense of being comparatively
virtuous.
