times it has tried the staying qualities of
those who listened to the encouraging re-
ports from the west, but now surely they
have cause to thank the hand which stayed
them. The west has, like all other new
communities, secured the greater portion
Now its fate is similar to that of other
boom countries-a surplus OF labor with

where the advantages are the greatest.
The Northern Pacific recently doubled its
passenger service; trade certainly must
have warranted the change. But these
new trains are loaded both ways, with

depot when they arrive to be convinced
that at least portion of them
are casting their lot in the vicinity of Bis
marck. The old timers are willing to re-

is the first sign OF what may reasonably be
expected during the summer season. There
is little doubt now of all abundant yield in
nearly all sections which have been util-

stock raising. Enterprises of different

would the united efforts of the citizens ac-
complish as all inducement to business

deliver to eastern and foreign markets.

The Period Of Prosperity.

To a person who has just arrived in Bis

admiration, but to one who was here in .'8S

those days, there is much to encourage in

\ Mermaid Caught On Line on the
Coast cf Florida.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April % w. w.
Stanton, mate of the schooner Addie
Shaefler, while fishing for bass 300
miles Off St Augustine, drew in his line
and found entangled therein the strang-
est fish, if it is fish, that has ever been
seen in this section. This strange crea-
ture, or mermaid, is about six feet long,
pure white and scaleless. The head and
face are wonderfully human in shape
and feature.
The shoulders are well outlined, and
very much resemble those of woman
and The breasts are well defined and
show considerable development, while
the hips and abdomen continue the
human resemblance. In all there are
four tlippers, two Of which are placed at
the lower termination Of the body and
give one the impression that nature
made an effort to supply the strange
creature with lower limbs.
Mr.. Stanton confesses to quite fright
on first sight of his queer prize, which,
on being drawn on board, gave utter
ance to low, moaning cry, which
might easily have been mistaken for the
sobbing of baby. The schooner has
been thronged all day by curious visitors
who express much wonder and aston
ishment at the strange object. MIR.
Stanton, after visiting several ports and
showing his queer catch, will donate it
to the Smithsonian Institute,

sTEeL-LINED TREASURY VAULTS.
An Appropriation of ss30,OOO to Pro-
tect Uncle Sans sDust."


WASHINGTON, April %. Treasurer
Huston has won the fight he has been
making before the house committee on
appropriations for better protection
against burglary in the treasury depart
ment. The committee has concluded to
appropriate $3.50, 900 for the purpose of
placing steel Innings in the gold and sill
yer vaults. and giving them new doors
and time-locks and other safety i'm
provements.
The disclosure by Treasurer Huston as
to the unsafe condition of the vaults,
where several millions of dollars of gold
and silver arc stored, created consider
able agitation not only in congress, but
in all parts Of the country, and the COM
mittee on appropriations concluded that
the publication of this dangerous condi-
ton of the vaults made it more neces-
sarv than ever to provide precautions
against burglars, as the cracksmen of
the country would put their heads to-
gether and make a raid on the treasury
if there was not something done.r 1t
would be next to nimpossibility for any
number of thieves to successfully raid
the treasury vaults, because there is
not only a well-organized night force of
watchmen distributed all over the build
ing, with Instructions to make constant
rounds, and they are provided with fire
arms and electric calls, but there are in
the vicinity of the treasury department
a number of policeman who make regu-
lar tours of the building, with instruc-
tions to keep their eyes in the direction
of the treasury department. However,
it would not be very difficult thing to
vaults if there could be employees of the
department. taken into the conspiracy.
1t has been demonstrated that within a
few minutes drills can open aperatures
in any of the gold or silver vaults large
enough for man to crawl in and out at
will, and the precious metal would be
carried away like mice steal meal.
