The mountains and the seashore were levy

every conceivable kind. Blinds and shut
tiers were closed at scores of hospitable
mansions in the narrow streets of the old
city, and even in the elegant villas that
crowned the surrounding heights. The sun
glare at midday WAS 80 intense that no
man was safe in venturing forth without a
huge sunshade of some kind, and even
within the sacred precincts of the club,
where broad awnings hung on every side
and palm leaf fans were in constant mo-
ton, the men strolled into luncheon in

STREET RAILWAY MIDDLE.

The Helena Electric Company Ordered to
Remove Its Track.
The street railway difficulty came up for
hearing yesterday in the district court in
the case of F. X. Wallace vs.. The Helena
Electric Street Railway company. Frank
Langford, the president of the company,
was there to answer for contempt of court.
He entered motion to have the case dis
missed, but this was overruled by Judge
Hunt. Evidence was introduced showing
that the writ of injunction had not been
properly served. The judge held that the
service was sufficient and the defendant was
ordered to remove its tracks on Main street
north of Grand by July 3, or show cause.
The defendant was held in his own recog-
nizance in the sum- of $500. Frank Lang
ford, H. G. McIntire. l. d. McCutcheon,
A. N. Richards testified for the defendant,
and NJ. M. Gum testified in rebuttal.
Other proceedings in the district court were
as follows:
3O-Thornburg vs.. Fish; demurrer sus-
tanned and plaintiff allowed to amend COM
plant.
49OO-La Reau vs.. F. A. Robataille ct al;

AMONG THE RAILROADS.
A New Route From Helena to Castle
Railroad Earnings

A New Route From Helena to Castle
Railroad Earnings.
1t might be just as we'll, while Helena is
about it, to advocate and endeavor to have
the Helena d Castle Mountain railway run
direct from Helena. Agood route is sug-
gested, and people who claim to know say
it is natural route for road, and that is,
starting at East Helena, up to Maggie
gulch, thence along Rock creek, and
through the great Smith River valley. The
first place the road should cross the Mis-
souri, after leaving Helena would be at
Stubs ferry or even Canyon ferry. This is
the most practicable route, and would have
the advantage of being the best way to prop
erly touch White Sulphur Springs. It would
traverse the Smith River valley for a dis
lance Of thirty miles across q section of
country that is the finest farming and stock
raising region in Montana and also great
wool growing center. 1t is proposed at no
distant day to establish WOODEN mills along
the Missouri river near Helena where
great electric power will be generated, and
this road would place these enterprises in
close connection with the wool growing
districts. Old timers and newcomers who
have been over this route pronounce it an
excellent one and if the Helena d Castle
road is not built that way it will surely be
chosen by one # the great transcontinental
railways that are surely and rapidly reach
ing out for new fields of traffic.

PROF. ALEXANDER's LECTURE.

A Large and Highly Pleased Audience.
Although an admission fee was charged
last night, Prof. Alexander had fine audi
ence to hear his lecture on matrimony.
Love. the professor held, was the hottest
of sentiments and should be so considered.
Words could not depict the meanness of a
character that would knowingly trife with
the love of coniding friend.
To marry for home is bad; for spite
worse; and for money is simply legalized
prostitution.
Homes are unhappy because faults are
always noticed and virtues never praised.
At the close of the lecture Mrs. Priest,
Miss Southmayd and Messrs. Barrows and
kleinschmidt we're examined, to the de-
light of the audience. This afternoon the
professor gives free lecture to ladies only,
| and this evening to gentlemen only.

MISTAKE OF INGERSOLL'S.

The advocates of vivisection in the in
terests of humanity have little to fear
from their latest opponent. To cruelty
to dumb animals every thinking member
81 the community is sternly opposed,
md majority Of them are prepared to
suffer loss of time and money both to
stamp it out whenever it is proved to
exist. But vivisection is not necessarily
cruelty Conducted as it is by a class of
educated and highly sympathetic pro
fessional men and women, we may rest
assured that in nearly every instance
not one twinge of pain is inflicted that it
is possible to avoid. It will be admitted
by all but the most rabid opponents of
the practice that it has it's origin in mo-
tives of the highest nature. If such in
vestigations lead to discoveries and
this will be denied by few-that have
mltigated and can mitigate the ills of
suffering humanity, then in conflict of
brute suffering and human suffering the
interests of the higher animal ought to
prevail.

to tread" and the author of the mis-
takes of Noses" in letter to Boston
so-called philanthropist on the evils of
7ivisection, stgmatizes the practice as
the shell of SCIENCE" and thereby boldly
proclaims the unfathomable depths OF
his own ignorance. On the very face of
the communication there is proof in
abundance that the writer of this rhodo-
montade never saw an experiment on an
animal and does not even know how
such an operation is conducted. But to
the colonel ignorance of the subject in
hand is mere bagatelle; the man who
undertook to set Moses in the right IS
not likely to come to a halt for such a
trifie as an insufiicency of data. "Vivi-
section is torture" and when the writer
puts down his foot there is evidently
nothing more to be said, except, per-
haps, that such method of argument
is one of the surest characteristics Of the
crack Drained, frothy enthusiast. What
he does not know about science is evil
IDENTIFY the exact equivalent of what he
does not know about religion. He has
delivered himself on both subjects, and
in each his knowledge or lack of it pro-
duces equally wonderful results.
AS matter of fact, men of science
will congratulate themselves on his op-
position to vivisection, and that he has
openly and voluntarily assumed his
proper place in the ranks of bigotry and
braying ignorance His political color
stamps him as an out and out protec-
ZIONIST; he is one of the party that
swells the income of the millionaire at
the expense of the laboring man; he
would sacrifice the life and health of
mankind IN the interests of chattering
monkey or a loud-voiced ass "A fellow
feeling makes us wondrous kind"

A VERY interesting account of how
forests are artiticially grown on tho
slopes of the Alps and Pyrenees is given
by the Engineering and Building Rec
ord in an article on the Forestry Ex-
hibit of the French Government at
Paris. By means of models practical
illustration Of the system is afforded.
Where mountain side is liable to land
slides or avalanches of rock, series of
retaining walls is built and loose
boulders are supported, and the growth
Of vegetation is started to hold the soil.
In valleys which torrents of water have
occasionally devastated some very ex-
tensive improvements are made. The
injury by flood is not only the washing
out OF the upper valley, but the over
Whelmlng Of arabic lands in the f1atter
portion below with the detritus, de-
stroying its fertility, and the cutting off
OF communication over government
