Speed Of Animals.

In respect Ia the comparative speed

that neither size nor comparative

ant Episcopal church. The mission is
one both Of reclamation and propaganda
ism; reclamation Of enormous funds not
now devoted to the purposes intended
by their munificent donors, and propa-
gandism which shall secure additional
sums for educational purposes. OF the
success Of the scheme, the president en-
tertains the highest hopes. His pur-
pose is to create fund, which shall lend
aid to church educational institutions all
over the land and especially in the west.
With this end in view, he will travel
through the country, appearing before
educators and dioceses, and appealing in
especial to wealthy individuals.
The plan is one that is worthy Of all
assistance and encouragement. While
we can point with pride to the work and
the record Of our public schools, we must
welcome with satisfaction any and
every stimulus to educational progress,
from whatever quarter it may come.
Competition will inevitably raise our
educational standards and work for the
best interests OF the people at large. The
churches have done noble educational
work in the past, and there is no signs
OF their giving pause. The Episcopal
church has devoted nearly fifty millions
Of dollars to this noble work. The Con-
gregationalists can point with satisfac-
ton to furnishing institutions like
Dartmouth and Yale. The Roman
Catholics are just completing their
magnificent university in Washington,
D. G. Chicago, through the munifi-
cence of Mr.. Rockefeller, is to have q
Baptist university that will cost a
million and a quarter.
For such extension of educational
possibilities, Montana and Helena ought
to have warm welcome. In many
instances the first seeds of the good
work have already neen sown, and with
time and care they will ripen into insti-
buttons Of which we shall all be proud.
The Congregationalists Of this state are
already moving for the establishment Of
q college. Helena may have it, if she
chooses, and it is to be hoped that nc
shortsightedness on the part Of any Of
our citizens will deprive us Of such de-
sirable institution. The Wesleyans have
in the university recently opened q proof
of their interest in matters educational.
They have provided it with a competent
staff and success is bound to come with
time. In st. Peters school, the Epis-
copal church has high-grade institu-
ton, providing a frst-class education,
we'll differed and we'll conducted. It is
intended to form the nucleus OF future
collegiate institutions of magnitude un-
der the auspices of the Episcopal church
in Montana. BY it's trustees, the presi-
dents scheme ought to be warmly vel
coined. The population Of Montana is
rapidly increasing every year; and we
ought to be able to boast that in educa-
tional advancement as we'll as in every
other public interest, our state can hold
her own with any in the Union.

The opera house was again filed last

The musical parts Of tho opera are very
pleasing while the plot 0 Iers many oppor-
tunities for clever acting. The dialogue spark
sparkles with wit and ballads are Yea tchv.' -
The general performance was very accept
able. The principals were in good voice
dash. One noticeable feature was the ele-
giant oostuming Of the chorus. The queens
robes of Miss Abbot in the throne room
of the second and acts attracted
much attention. In the other act she was
seen in pretty. peasant costume. In the
role Of Elvira Miss Abbott was as sprightly
and graceful as of yore. She assumed with
equal ease the dignifed mien of queen
and the simplicity of q peasant maid. Her
most impressive solo was '"The Convent
Cell" sung from the throne II ia beauti-
full ballad and was beautifully rendered.
The laughing duet with Manuel in the sec
ond act drew salvos Of applause. In the
power as an actress a. we'll.
Miss Lizzie Annandale's first appearances
in Helena made most favorable impress
sion. She will be remembered by lovers Of
the Boston.Ideals. As the peasant boy aud
deyotee Of Elyira she was ss s4aoy and and
were exceedingly we'll rendered, while the
duet with Manuel was encored with enthus-
iasm.
Michelena appeared to much better adj
vantage. He played the part Of ths lover
With proper appreciation Of the character.
His voice was in better condition and he
sang with much spirit.
The magnificent bass voice Of Mr.. Brod-
erick contributed several splendid solos.
Mr.. Ready, the comedian Of the evening,
did some very clever work indeed.
Careful attention to detail was seen in
every phase of the performance. The cath
edral scene at the close of the second act
was impressive. The orchestration was
quite in keeping with the singing Of the
opera.

The Operators and Miss Annandale.
The presentation of the floral Offering "a
Miss Lizzie Annandale last night by the
telegraph operators Of Helena was CRATE
full testimonial to the successful efforts Of
Miss Annandale in giving concert for the
benefit of the operators Of Baltimore, Mo-,
during the strike Of 1888. The inscription
on the ribbon accompanying the basket
read: Baltimore '88. Helena '90;' and
suspended from the center of the handle of
the basket on floral heart was the en-
blematic ''73." The testimonial was highly
appreciated by Miss Annandale. who after the
opera went up to the Western Unioa Office
and becoming acquainted with the operat-
ors greeting each with cordial hand shake,
she heartily thanked them for their kind
remembrances.

An Interesting Question.

Acting Commissioner of the Gen
eral Land Office Stone has been en-
gagged upon question involving over
100000 acres of land in Washington,
lying around Puget Sound. Congress
has granted the Two Dakotas, Montana
and Washington the 10Th and 36th
sections Of land in each township for
school purposes, provided that where
lid sections had been taken up by
settlers prior to the passage of the
act that the states should be given
other lands as indemnify. Owing to
the irregular shape of the shore and
the large amount of territory covered
by Puget Sound, many OF these sec
tons granted to Washington are
wholly or partly under water. The
state therefor asks for indemnity for
the portions of sections SO submerged.
Commissioner Golf, it is understood.
favors allowing the request of the
state, but Acting Commissioner Stone
believes that it cannot be done under
the law, and will undoubtedly decide
against it, when the case will be carried
before Secretary Noble for a final de-
cision.-Olympia Review.

The new state of Washil

The new state of Washington ex-
poets to have, within twenty years, a
school fund of $20,00O,OOO from her
school lands. If she follows the
wasteful example of other states, she
will not have that sum, nor quarter
of it Instead of wisely conserving
the school sections, they have us a rule,
been grabbed at nominal prices, and
the money they should have provided
for the support of the school is now
extorted from the taxpayers, who have
had to buy the same lands at high
prices, from the grabbers. Texas is
the only state in the Union that has
properly administered the landed en-
dowment of her schools, and as a re-
suit. some day, when tie population
of that imperial commonwealth has
Appropriated the supporting capacity
of It's land and industries, Texas will
be the seat of the best and most liber.
al culture, with the least burden upon
taxpayers. We hope that Washing
ton will realize her hopes in regard to
her school fund, but to do it she must
carefully study what to avoid in the
conduct OF other states which have
squandered their lands-Ex.
