The Summer Young Man.

He is an awfully nice boy, says Ruth Ash
more in the Ladies' HONS journal. He
may wear very gorgeous blazer, and he
may talk athletics in the afternoon and
sentiment at night but lie is off for va
cation. Won't you just remember that?
You are pretty girl, and bright girl, and
he likes to laugh and talk with you. take
you out rowing, teach You to play tennis,
and at night sit on the veranda and tell
you how man really can love. All
of this is delightful. But will you
please be good enough to remember
that love worth having does not
come in II week or month. and that in his
watch case there may be the face of girl
whom he loves with all his heart. and whom
he thinks about every night before he closes
his eyes. You are just part of his vacation;
and won't you be wise enough to make him
part of yours? Ii, when his vacation is
over. he should come to your home, what
Was merely summer acquaintance may
ripen into friendship. Well, that's an
other thing. But just for the sunshiny
time don't allow yourself to think too much
about what the summer young man says or
does.

The Cause of the Hog.

sr. PAUL. July 13.-The German govern
ment sent an official to this country to in
vestigate the pork question. He is DIR. De-
dolph, staff surgeon of the German army.
DR.. Dedolph, who is now in st. Paul, says:
1.-The main purpose of my journey to this
country concerns the very important ques--
tion of the abolition of the present rcstric-
yean markets. The law in reference to
microscopic examinations. as / found i'll
use here, Is satisfactory, and if they con-
tinue to execnte the law in the same manner
in which it is now being observed. the time
is not very distant when, in the opinion of
experts, the restriction policy will be
abandoned and American pork be free to
enter German and other foreign ma rkets.''

Advice to Plain Women.

If all plain women displayed as much
common sense in settling the question of
personal appearance as a certain bright
New York girl, there would be less repining
and more agreeable companions among
them. Her argument and conclusion ar Q
both eminently satisfactory. She says that,
singly and collectively, each ply sical defect
WAS taken under careful confederation, and
every legitimate meens employed to lessen
her homely and enhance her attractive fea-
lures. To this matter time, thought, pa
tienoe and ingenuity were devoted, and a
measure Of success was attained. But, after
once giving the best taste and labor to her
toilet, the whole subject was promptly dis
missed, and she absolutely declined to fret
or oven think about her looks.-Illustratsd

New YORK, July 13.-The Atlas line mail

To Re Tried at Neihart-Landslide Inter-
rupts Traffic.
GREAT FALLS, July 13.-[Special. THE
Queen of theHills Mining company, one of the
richest and best developed mines OF Neihart,
is to enter into new feature to more rapidly
and cheaply extract ore from it's mines
This is to be done by means of electricity,
which has been tried on a small scale in the
mines of Colorado and few other regions
with Asuocess. The Thompson-H Houston
company has just completed electrical ma
chinery for use in mines that is thought
will rovolutionize deep quartz mining
Their agent w. s. Pierce, who has been in
this city for some time, has concluded with
the company contract by which the new
machinery is to be used in the mines.
The machinery is to consist
of powerful drivers which may be
used in any. position and pumps and hoists.
The machinery is to be run by electricity,
which it will requi,e a 300 horse power en-
gine to generate. The machine will be here
in few months, or as soon as the railroad
is completed to Neihart. This new venture
ia causing much interest in mining circles
in other extensive mine owners in the Nei-
hart region.
Traffic on the Monarch branch of the
Great Northern has again been brought to
a standstill by the heavy rains of the past
few da' g. The first obstruction was a large
landslide that covered the track to a con-
siderable depth, which occurred about tif-
teen miles this side of Monarch. 1t is re-
ported that more than half dozen bridges
between the landslide and Monarch have
been washed out, which may perhaps cause
a delay until the first of August.
