The remarkable growth in population
of the region occupied by the states OF
Montana, Oregon and Washington is
ONLY surprising to those who are un-
acquainted with the unusual natural
resources of tins section. Mining, lum
boring, grazing. fruit growing and aRri-
culture are here carried on with DE-
gree Of success unknown in any other
section of North America.
The states Of Montana and Washing
ton are now the scene Of a large amount
OF raj road building, but the principal
and most important line in these two
states, and in fact the only one travers
ing them from east to west and reach
ing all important sections is the North
ern Pacific Railroad. This road is the
she r, est line to Helena and Butte City,
Mont, Spokane Falls, Wash, all Puget
Sound points. and is the only ali rail
line to Tacoma and Seattle.
he Northern acific Railroad Offers
speciat induce ments to home see kers by
allowing holders Of second class North
Pacific Coast tickets the privilege of
stopping ten days at Spokane Falls,
WASH. and all points West Of there.
Passengers are thus given an OppOr
tunily Of examining 81 sections OF this
great state at a saving Of from SIS % to
SIS 90 as against any other line.

IMPORTED CIGARS.
Figures Showing tho Number Of Hayanas
Consumed In This Country.

Figures Showing tho Number OF AaYanaa
Consumed In This Country.
''As near as we can get at it," said a
cigar dealer the other day to repre-
sentative of the Chicago Evening Jour
nal, 1--WE calculate that there are thir-
teen million smokers in the United
States. We haven't been able to get 1t
down fine enough yet to estimate how
many of these smoke cigars, what pro-
portion the pipe, or the number Of those
who inhale the delusive cigarette, but
we can get pretty close to the number
who go in for imported cigars. And that
number surprised me when I figured it
out Not one person in a Thousand
would be able to guess anywhere near
it, after knowing the total number Of
smokers in the country. Now, out Of
those thirteen million smokers how
many indulge in Havanas?"
"About four million" replied the e.
porter.
''1'hat's the nearest to the number Of
any guess I've had, and + have a stand
ing offer of box Of the best Perfectos
to the man who guesses within half a
million OF the actual figures. I'm sorry,
but near as you came you have not won
the box. You're ont of the way, though,
only about four million in your guess.
Now, then, if you'll tell me whether you
are too high or too low I'll give you the
Perfectos."
"Too low, Of course."
EXACTLY. That's what they all think.
I'm sorry, young man, but you don't get
the box. You're just 1884, 600 smokers
too high in your estimate. Hardly be-
lieve it. would you? Nobody would.
But it's 80, and there's no getting
around it, Why, ii there were 1900, GOO
consumers Of Havana cigars in this
country, how often do you suppose each
one would get a Havana to smoke? just
about three month. That is, if all the
cigars imported from Cuba into the Uni
ted States were equally divided among
100000 smokers, each smoker would
have twenty-five cigars and piece of
one. AT the outside, we take from Cuba
ITO, 1000, eco cigars a. year. This Is all
tho demand calls for. Consequently, we
smoke in round rurr bers $50, 900 OF Them
every day.
II think ii is fair to give five cigars as
each smokers daily average. So we see
by easy figuring that just 6G, 600 persons
are all that are required to get away
with all the imported cigars that the
United States consumes annually. rs
tonishng, isn't it? Out OF an army of
IL 600, 900 people in this country who
smoke, only coo indulge in the luxury
Of imported cigars, but that 5000 pay
not less than an average of one dollar
apiece every day for the privilege, which
makos the snug little Sum Of ST., ooo,ooC
a year which goes up in the fragrant
smoke Of the Havana in this great and
glorious land"

A novel Adyertis ement.

Not long ago an enterprising adver.
tiser hit upon the idea Of making an
electrical tricycle. carry his placards
through the streets. A moro realistic
idea is that carried out by a firm OF bell
makers in Western city. A miniature
set Of chimes has been designed, to be
attached to an electrical tricycle., which
will travel around the city. In the
lower part of the frame on which the
chimes are fixed is a keyboard OF be-
tween two and three octaves. This Is
played in exactly the same way as the
organ or piano keyboard, and some very
beautiful combinations are rendered
possible. All the thirty bells forming
the set which are hung on rack are rung
electrically. Attached to each Of them Is
an eleotro-magnet, and the keys make
tho circuit from 2 battery IN tho base y
the eleotro-magnets at the bells. .

A WONDERFUL PLANT.
The Seed Found ia tho Craw OF
Crane.

Crane.
a truly wonderful plant is at the ALLIE
ghany conservatory, says the Pitts
burgb Chronicle No Hne knows TO what
class it belongs or any thing about ii.
1t is the subject Of much speculation
among botanists, and they anxiously
await the development Of q Duh that is
forming. Then, they say, they can place
the plant. The I>otaDists have IL sus-
pinion that the plant is a tropical one,
and superintendent Hamilton is trea t.
ing it on that superstition.
Tho history Of the plant so far as
known is q unique one. During the
summer one Of a party Of gunncrs
brought down crane. rs was a boauti-
full specimen and the taxidermist OF tho
party set to work to mount it. In the
birds craW were found several seeds,
With - view Of learning if the seed WAS
killct; by the bird eating it they were
placed in water. In few days the seeds
sprouted. They were planted in loam
and kept in warm room. Edward '.
McCandless took charge of it, The
plant was an object of interest to Mr..
McCand less and his botaniSt friends and
its development was closely watched.
It was transferred to the conservatory.
The leaves are long and broad and
heavy, not unlike a species Of palm.

The Champion Pretzel Eater.

The customer remarked that he would
give him a dollar and pay for the pretz.

boy went out and soon returned with
twenty-five pretzels on a stick. Then

CoNsTANTISoPLE, April 1.-THE Russian

loaded with railroad material, and had
as passengers a large number of Military
workmen,'' according to the term used by
Russians, who are detailed to construct the
Trans-Siberian railroad, which it is be-
lieved, will make the harbor and arsenal
of Niadivostock, one of the most valuable
ports in Russian territory. The officers in
command OF the Russian ship, upon being
brought to beneath the guns of Fort
Dardanel, Immediately appealed to the
Russian ambassador, NJ. de Nalidoff, who
in turn entered the strongest protest posi-
bic with the Turkish officials OF this city
NJ. DeNalidof claimed in warm terms
that the action of the Turkish officers at
Dardanell WAS in direct and fragrant viola
ton of the commercial treaties existing be-
tween Russia and Turkey.
After considerable interchange Of views
on the subject the porte finally came to the
conclusion that it would be inadvisable TO
retain the war ship any fnrther and she
was allowed to pass Dardanel.
The action of the Turkish authorities in
stopping the Russian war ship was taken
on the ground of the treaty of 1871, con-
Guided in that year by the five great powers
and Turkey, by which it was decided that
no ship of war belonging to any nation
save Turkey should pass the Dardanell
without express consent of Turkey. all mer-
chant ships being also required TO show
their papers to Ottoman authorities
The provision of the treaty are confirmed
in London in 1871 and Berlin in 1878.

Bradford Strike situation.

LONDON, April l4-There has been little
or no change in the situation of affairs in
connection with the wholesale strike of
weavers in Bradford. During the day
there have been several conferences be-
tween Messrs. Testers & Co. the most
prominent mill owners, and the citizens of
Bradford. who are trying to bring about
some sort of q compromise agreement
by which the strike, which has assumed
dangerous aspect, may be terminated. The
citizens representatives have also been in
communication with the strikers. The re-
suit of these negotiations, however, is that
Lester & Co. have finally refused to refer
the matter in dispute TO arbitration. claiming
that they have right to conduct their own
business in their own way without
in any way submitting to outside
dictation. The strikers on the other hand
are announced to be preparing an ap-
peal setting forth their wrongs and the
Justice of their cause, which will be ad
dressed TO the workingmeu and working
women of the world at large. The police
force of the entire district is on duty and
the troops are still confined to their bar
racks and are kept under arms. -
