Neihart.

That Neihart is today great min
ing district and destined to rival any
camp in mining history, are recog-
nizcd facts by all honest and intclli
gent men who have become ac-
quainted with the mines and their
developments.
We doubt if there is an instance
where the development Of mining
district has been so thoroughly ac-
conplished by the persevering in
tclligent industry Of the pioneer
prospectors.
In the development of the camp
there have been no stampedes, no
booms, no wildcat speculations, on
the contrary all the results attained
have been reached through the steady
swinging Of the pick and tapping Of
the drill. Montana i'll mining affairs
is too conservative. The mighty
wealth hidden within her mountains is
not comprehended by her citizens.
Too many are prone to be
satisfied with cent per cent
interest and speculation in
town lot options, which lots would be
spurned as fit camping gronnd by the
cayotte were it not for the value
given them by reason Of the mining
interests in the state.
The men who have made Neihart
what she is will in due time come to
choir reward. The ditor of The
Mining Journal regretted that he
could not prolong lis visit to enjoy
the warm grasp of every miners hand,
but he will soon be among those
mighty hills again for more ex-
tended visit.
Every excursionist from Helena
was surprised and delighted with
the town so picturesque and promis-
ing, and tie men and women SC
thoughtful and attentive. The pro-
gram was most cxcellently arranged
and carried out.
All honor to Neihart and her
broad ga"ged miners. Mining Jour

Timber Cutting Permits.

The Helena land Office is in receipt
of the following communication from
Commissioner Carter, of the general
land office:
"From the number of applications
for permits to cut timber on non
mineral public lands received by the
department OF the intcror and
referred to this office for inves-
tigation it is apparent that an
erroneous impression exists among
those interested in the vocation Of
cutting timber and manufacturing
the same into lumber or other
products, asto where their application
should be filed. These like al other
matters relating to the public domain,
should be filed in your Office and
trasmitted in the usual way TO this
Office for appropriate action. The
permit, if one is granted, will be
issued underthedirection of the sccro-
tary of the interior, but the
preliminary investigation is made il
this Office. Should further inquir,
in regard to the question arise il
your district you will SO advise th'
parties interested and relieve tin
department of much unnecessar,
work, and to some extent expedite
the examination of these applica
tons"

Neihart and Helena.

The excursion from Helena to
Neihart organized under the aus
pices of the Helena Board of Trade,
was most happily conceived, sue
cessfully accomplished and gener-
ously appreciated by the big-hearted
and clear headed miners and busi-
ness men of Neihart, and will always
be pleasantly remembered by the
participants.
As the train arrived at the town
an echoing salute reverberated from
peak to peak, and the Belt Mountain
Miners Union, over 300 strong, led
by band of twelve pieces, formed
in line and escorted the guests to
the point where the silver spike was
driven. This was made entirely
from silver produced in the camp
and was driven home by Mabel
Brennan, a osy-cheeked bright little
girl, less than 10 years of age, who
became a resident of the camp when
but 3 weeks old.
After these ceremonies, the guests
were conducted to the various hotels
where dinners were served which
would do credit to any hotel in
Montana.

mate results, though rugged and at
times forbidding in superficial ex-

The altitude of the gulch where

rise in steps convenient for econom-
ical exploitation to the height of
1000 feet.
The gulch cuts through the noun

the eastern hills.
The town of Neihart is marvel !:

are comfortable and in many in

Ali the Other Indians Surrender, and
the Cruel War Is Over.
At headquarters of the Department
of the Platte Sunday night dispatch
was received from General Brooke,
which stated that Major Whitesides, in
command of a battalion of the Seventh
Cavalry, had captured Big Foot and his
entire band near the head of Porcupine
creek. About $50 bucks surrendered.
General Brooke also telegraphed that
the hostiles in the Bad Lands had sur
rendered, and would reach Pine
Ridge on Tuesday. Bright Eyes sent
word Saturday night that half the hos
tiles had left the Bad Lands and were
within few hours march of the agen-
cy. It is now apparent that the Indian
trouble in the Northwest is rapidly ap-
preaching a termination. Short Bull,
Kicking Bear and his outfit are now
abandoning the Bad Lands and coming
to Pine Ridge Agency. The final move
ment of the troops has undoubtedly
greatly influenced Short Bull in his
former determination to die rather
than surrender. 1t is not supposed they
will arrive at Pine Ridge for several
days, they being now camped upon the
White river.

THE COeWE8 PARTY.

The following description of the

the New York Star:
A central point in house is selected,
say the chandelier in the front parlor,
and to this number of strings are at
tached, according to the number of
guests who have been invited to take
part in the game. There may be twen-
ty-five, or fifty, or even more. Then
these strings are twisted about the
chairs, around table legs, through key
holes, downstairs into the dining-room,,
out to the kitchen, upstairs again into
the bedroom, and, in fact, all over the
house. These strings mako the cobweb.
At the end Of each is prize, which acts
as stimulant to the guests, to each OF
whom a string is assigned, to follow his
or her thread to its termination through
its many devious and provoking inter-
twinings. In Chicago the cobweb party.
has become so popular that men are en-
ployed to prepare houses when one is
announced, and it sometimes takes
three days to get large house ready
When the guests get to following up
the strings there is plenty of fun, as
they meet in all parts Of the house,
cross and recross each others paths, get
their feet tangled up in the threads,
and have great many funny expert

FASHIONABLE PARTIES.

Tho Expense and Inconvenience OF LARGE
Balls.
New York is distinguished every sea-
son for its monster masquerades and
fancy balls. In spite Of gas, musici flow-
ers and gay costumes these gatherings,
II wo are to believe the reports Of many
who "assist" atthem, are at once dreary.
and disgusting. The multitudes Of mock
kings, knights, duchesses, scaramouches,
pickwicks, cardinals, Indians, clowns,
columbines. pantaloons, hidalgos, sail-
ors, punchinellos, Gower-girls and what
not who meet upon q cormon level upon
these occasions are nothing more than
promenading and gyrating dummies.
says the New York Ledger. The world
may be stage, but these ladies and
gentlemen show very clearly that all
the men and women are not players
not one in Ave hundred Of them having
the slightest idea OF personating the
character whose outer husk he or she
assumes.
These monster balls are said to be
principally remarkable for three impos-
sibilities, viz: the impossibilitity OF
dancing on account of the crowd. the
impossibility Of getting any refresh
ments without fighting for them and
the impossibility OF obtaining access to
the dressing-rooms except by force OF
arms. Fifteen dollars for ticket and
one hundred dollars for costume may
not be too much to pay for six hours of
discomfort, but by riding in tho city
railroad or elevated cars for the samo
length Of tirno you can get showed,
jammed and hustled about almoat as
thoroughly for much less money. ard
you needn't pay any thing extra for
costume either.

Speed In Writing.

A rapid penman can write thirty words
in minute, says writer in the Chicago
Evening Journal. To do this he must
draw his quill through the space Of a
rod-sixteen and a-half feet. In forty
minutes his pen travels furlong, and
in five hours aud a-third mile. We
make, on an average, sixteen curves Of
the pen in writing each word. Writing
thirty words in a minute, we must make
four hundred and lightweight to each

hours, one hundred and forty-four thou

thousand. The man who made one mil-
lion strokes of pen in month was not
at all remarkable. Many men make
four million. Here we have in the ag-

Babstance of Document of Interest
Throughout the Catholic World.
Advices from Rome state that the
Pope has finished the draft of his ency-
ctical upon the social question. His Holi-
ness has been working upon the sub
ject for over year, and at his request
the most competent economists and
Bishops of different countries, includ-
ing America, have furnished memoran-
da. The Pope considers the question the
growth of the present time. The ency-
clical will be the crowning act of the
Pope's work in this direction. The date of
its publication has not yet been fixed.
The Pope is in the habit of carefully cor
recting and polishing his writings. He
will also consult with certain Cardinals
and Prelates on the leading passages of
his encyclical, but the Associated Press
correspondent is enabled. to give the
substance of it now. The encyclical will
review and expound the whole question
affecting wage workers. The document
will comprise three parts. First, His Ho-
liness will develop the general principles
upon which social economy is founded
and the dominant idea of distributive JUS
tice which should regulate the inter-
course Of man and the speed of wealth.
The Pope says that distributive and re-
storative justice are needed to prevent
misery and sweating on one side and
exorbitant riches and tyranny on the
other The second part comprises
the origin and cause of the present
condition of the social problem. On
this point His Holiness takes a new
thesis. first developed in his encyclical
on Socialism. The third part contains
the views of the Pope regarding the
remedies, beyond religious and moral
influence, to be advocated. His Holi-
ness expresses himself again in favor of
Intervention by the State, within the
limits previously set forth. He con-
denns capitalism, as now organized,
and advocates a more equitable and just
distribution of riches. The ency-
clical will probably appear before
Easter. The Pope works upon it near
ly every day. He is convinced that
Papacy and the Church should lead the
present social and democratic move
ment, and will appeal to all conserva-
tive forces and to Protestants to aid in
securing the safety of society. The
Pope's physician says His Holiness may
live for some time yet, as he has a 70.
bust constitution, and is suffering from
no infirmity.
