MISSISSIPPI RIVER.
Congress VIII be Asked to Change the
Laws Relative to the Mississippi
River Commission.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
New ORLEANS, La, Oct. THE river
men, engineers and others who are going
TO the Mississippi river convention which
meets at Evansville, Ind, October IA, have
decided to join in memorial to congress
which they will urge and press before
that body, asking it to change the
laws relative to the Mississippi
river commission. Congress will
be asked to remove the headquarters
of the commission from New York to ST.
Louis. Memphis or New Orleans, to place
several experienced men on the commits
sion, to enlarge its jurisdiction SO as to give
it control over the tributaries of the Mis-
sissippi as well as over the main stream,
also to increase its powers so as to author
ize it to order work instead of acting merely
as an advisory and recommending--b BODY:
The convention will, it is belieysa, approve
all these measures and ur0st them on con-
greSS.

mally ask his consent to the match-which
is usually granted with readiness if the
offered prize be large enough. Meanwhile
the enamored swain has been searching out
the resting place of his Dulcinea: and she,
however willing. screams loudly for protec-
ton, as in duty bound. Then tremendous
row ensues. The women rise up en- maSSe.
arm themselves with clubs, stones and
missiles of every kind, and rush to the maid
ems defense The friends interpose to give
the lover fair play, endeavoring with sooth-
ings and gentle violence to disarm the fierce
viragoes; but the latter are not to be ap-
peased, and happy is the man who escapes
without some bleeding momento Of the
fight.
1t is point of honor with the bride to re-
sist with all her might, until at length the
impatient bridegroom grab her by the heels
or the hair and drags her along the ground
to the open door. Then he springs to the
saddle, still firmly grasping his screaming
captive and yelling in triumph. starts off at
full gallow. The friends sally forth, still
pursued by the outraged matrons. and fol-
low fast in the track of the fugitives. Hav-
ing gained the woods, the lover dashes into
the tangled thickets. while the friends con-
siderately pause on the outskirts until they
are satisfied that no one is In pursuit, when
they quietly disperse.
No further marriage ceremony is re-
CURED, ana Few Gays llterWdfQS the
happy couple emerge from the depths of the
forest as husband and wife. Two or three
days more are allowed to pass, and then the
friends call upon the bridegroom, each
bringing his promised contribution. Driv-
ing the sheep and cattle before them and
carrying the skins, bags of corn, ETC., the
whole party repair to the former residence
of the bride. There the presents are
handed over to the father, who, if satisfied
that he has received his daughters value,
manifests extreme pleasure in the marriage
and mutual congratulations are in order.
The various amounts contributed by
friends toward paying for wife, are con-
sidered debts of honor, to be fully repaid
whenever the benefactors themselves re-
quire similar assistance. Unfaithfulness
on the part of the wife is always punished
with DEATH but her guilty lover is let off by
paying her full value to the injured hus-
band. Marriage is not indissoluable, but if
wife is unhappy she may be sent back to
her fathers house, but if she marries again
the second husband must .rpay to the first
the price originally cost.

RECORD OF THE COURTS,
Gallatin Canal Company Defeated on
an Appeal From Award OF
Damages.
Two Chicago Firms Secure JudR-
ments Against a Butte Mer-
camille Firm.
Tho Steam Motor Line tn he AOld
to Marry His First
Cousin.

The Gallatin Canal company lost its suit
yesterday in the supreme court against
Lewis u. Lay, growing out of condcmna-
lion proceedings in Gallatin county. The
canal company appealed from the award Of
damages fer the taking of land of the re-
spondent for the purpose of a canal. Com
missloners were appointed, who appraised
the amount of tho damages. From their
award defendant appealed to the district
court, where the matter was tried by the
court and "A finding made in favor Of the
defendant for S215, the value of the land
taken, and $785 damages. The canal COM
pany appealed from an order denying
a motion for a new trial and from the iudg-
ment. There WAS evidence from a number
of Witnesses that the land taken was worth
go an more. The court found that the
land taken was worth $2l5. The appellant
commended that there was no testimony of
the number of acres taken, and hence no
evidence by which the court could arrive at
a total of $215. The decision of the lower
court was sustained. Opinion by Associate
Justice Dewitt.

To The INDEPENDENT: l see, with some
feelings of pleasure, that some prominent
citizens are very anxious to erect a monu-
ment to a very worthy pioneer, James
Whitlatch, whose name is synonymous for
rush and enterprise. Could the disem
bodied spirit of poor 'Jim'' communicate
with the parties who are so anxious ito do
something" I imagine he would say "take
hold of the opportunities offered in the
living present; make Montana and Helena
what they should be: md l will be content
to have my memory rest in the history of
the pioneers of Montana. whose monument
is the everlasting hills" Another sugges-
ton: Why not call the a~rtesian we'll the
Whitlatch we'll? Probably if this is done
the subscription list would be graced by
names now missing, but l fear that it would
take more than ghostly messages to LIBERAL
ize many of such people. A. WE'LL.

FOR U WOMEN.
An Interesting Talk by Rev. f. ID. Kelsey
Sc. d.. Last Nirht

An Interesting :ralk by Rev. f. ID. Kelsey,
Sc. d., Last Night.
The lecture room of the Central school
building WAS filled last night to hear the
lecture ON the Demands of the Age on
Young Women" In substance the speaker
said: 1.-THE making of a true home," says
Frances Power Cobbe, sis really the pecu-
liar and inalienable right of woman, a
right which no man can take from them.
For a man can no more make a home than
n drone can make a hive. He can build a
castle, or a palace, but-poor ~creature!-be
he wise as Solomon, and as rich as Crusus,
he cannot turn it into a home. 1t is wo-
man, and only n woman, a woman all by
herself, if she likes, n without a man to
help her, who can turn a house into a
home"
If these words be true. woman has a
q~ueenly power whose scepter is more subtle
and mighty than a throne. Of the three
dearest words-heaven, home. mother-two
angel of light and blessing, or she may be q
milestone dragging one down to q misery
whose bitterness can be likened only to the
agony depicted in the ancient legend of
Tantalus.
The Ago demands of a young woman that
she be the nucleus of genuine happiness.
Her place in society is one of beauty and
joy. Whatever else she may or may not
accomplish, she certainly is to human So
ciety what the lilies of the field are to grain
and wheat. Woman's high duty is to take
her place ampng those objects of nature
that bless by pleasing ns we'll MS by mental,
material service. Hers is it to bring SUN
shine and song into n house to make it
home. Where woman's presence and inhu-
ences are unfelt, there men become brutish;
the coming of women into the western can
yons, valleys, vil~lages-women an wives.
daughters, sisters, mnidens-has done far
more to civilize and restore order than all
the vigilance committees. In Sesame and
Lilies, one il made to say:
Lady. since | conceived
Thy pleasn rable aspect in my heart,
My life has been APART
In shining brightness and the place of truth
Which till that tin ., good sooth.

But now my ser pitude

A man from n wild beast
Thou madest mo, since for thy love l live"
Ruskin has more sweetly said: 1.-THE
path of a good woman is indeed strewn
with flowers; but they rise behind her
sters, not before them"
Blessed Is that sphere in life whose di-
vine gift it Ia to touch this desert and make
each foot track n bed of bloom. We'll has
