A full house greeted Gorton's Mins- strels at McGuire's opera House last evening for their operatic perform ance. The troupe is small in num- bers, but made up of the best mate- rial that can possibly be collected to- gether in the Minstrel line. There is nothing coarse or rough about the per formance. Everything goes with the perfect smoothness of we'll oiled ma chinery, and the result is the perfect satisfaction of the audience. A more mirth-inclined asscmblage it would be hard to find than were gathered to- gether at the theatre last evening. All joke told with instan taneous effect, and it was a wonder some of the fe- males did not laugh themselves into mysteries.
 The orchestra is particularly good and we'll balanced. It comes as near being perfect as is ever found with travelling troupe. The selections they play are all carefully re-arranged, for the band as it is, in size, and the re- suit is harmony and effect very diff ferent from what we are accustomed to.-Bulte, Montana Daily Miner, Oct. 31, 1890.

MT. E. L. Godkin, in the February number of The Forum, undertakes to prove that the expedition to relieve Emin was clearly a piratical under taking. since,.it had the sanction of no government and its leader was re- sponsible to no power. In the course of the argument MT. Godkin shows that the sympathy for Emin which caused the undertaking was a senti- ment born of'the Gordon myth, and he points out the curious fact that the people of Africa, owing to the slave trade, have always been regarded as fit spells for pirates even by civilized nations who hold no such notions even about any other savages.

The prosperity of town is gauged, not by the wealth of it's inhabitants, but by the unanimity with which they pull together when any important un. dertaking is to be accomplished.

Washington Letter

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON, d c., july 30, 1891,
Mr.. Powderly's long open letter adj
dressed to Secretary Foster concerning
the recent conferences about the seven
Knights of Labor discharged from the
bureau Of Engraving and printing has
been much discussed here, and there is
a general feeling of regret that it should
have been written its tone is such that
it has injured rather than helped the
cause for which Mr. Powderly is labor,
ing; and 1t looks too much like po-
litical attack upon Mr.. Foster TO SUIT
many of those whose sympathy had
been with the Knights since the begin.
ming of the controversy. Mr.. Foster
has declined to answer the letter, say.
ing that he would not enter into con.
troversy with Mr.. Powderly upon such
a basis.

Deafness Can't he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedle"'
Deafness is caused by an iuAamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in,
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tlrely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to lis normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by Ca
tarrh) that we cannot cure by taking

The evelet OF A corset seems

The eyelet Of a corset seems
atrihe to make a business on;
but what if one eyelet cuts
the laces, while another eye
let don't1
And what if the eyelet that
cuts is in universal use2
And what if the eyelet that
cuts the laces also rusts the
corset1
And what if the cyelet that
cuts is not SO neat and proper
and womanlike as the other3
And what il it costs as little
or less to put in and never
comes out or wears out ?
The new eyelet is made OF
loops of corset lace instead OF
metal.
The Ball and Kabo corsets
have it; the Ball is the easy
corset, the kabo the one that
does not yield a barleycorn.
o. You can wear them two or
three weeks and return to
where you got them, if you
want to. The makers provide
you that privilege.

The Wheat supply.

The information gathered by that
great newspaper, the London Times can
be relied upon for accuracy and hence
we can form some estimate of the prob,
able price of wheat, according to that
paper.
In India and Russia, whence England
draws good part Of her supplies, there
is failure Of crops. So far from hay
ing any wheat to sell there is such a
failure Of crops in both that famine and
starva.. ion are prevailing,
In England the present prospect Is
GOOD bat the critical time for wheat
is on or about The harvest which takes
place in August. A In promise is Of
ten destroyed by excessive rams "heh
the wheat is r,pening or by a delay IN
harvesting after it is ripe.
In any event Great Britain must buy
many millions of bushels and this year
she must look to the United States for
the major part OF the deficiency.
1t is probable that the crop in this
country has been grossly oVerestlmated.
No reliance whatever can be placed III
the government estimates and reports.
From all the information we have
been able to gather we are satisfied
there is nothing more than a good aver
age crop Of excellent quality and bar
vested in good condition.
The amount required for home con-
sumption is increasing AT the rate OF
FIVE or six millions year and the pro-
duction is not keeping pace with IT,
Under these circumstances we may con
clude that the price of wheat this year
will be better than for many years and
that the present downward tendency
vail shortly he arrested,
