Mr.. Editor, rs it is the fashion to talk
about the condition of the roads, suppose
had better say something on that subject.
We all know that the roads are in a very
bad condition, but it cannot be helped, Gnd
l think it oil nonsense for men to be troub-
ling themselves about something they cannot
help.
1t is we'll known that roads cannot be
worked when they are in such q condition as
khey are now; but if the Overseers will

DlsATrRoUs FIRB.-Minneapolis Mimi,
Feb. 26.-The fire that started in Clare
Sueak's paint works, on Fifth street, last

proved to be the most disastrous fire that
Minneapolis has experienced in years. At

ruined. The fire caught in the upper stories
Of the Lumber Exchange, Which was claim
ed - be freproof, and burned fercely.
The water did not reach above the seventh
or eight stories and the fremeu were nearly
powerless. st. Paul was called upon for
aid and responded with two engines. The
thermometer was below zero last night, and
the intense cold delayed matters o great
deal, as the hose kept freezing, and nearly
every time a wheel crossed it the hose
burst.
After n fight of eleven hours the fire
departm ent succeeded in contining TO the
four upper stories of the Lumber Exchange
tho flames which it was thought at one time
would certainly consume the building. The
structure looked like veriiable ice
palace after the fire. The walls, as high as
the hose can throw water, six or seven
stories, are covered foot thick with ice,
and the sidewalks against the building are
piled from five to eight feet high with ice
formed from the water Ennning down from
above. The losses have beon greatly
exaggerated, being placed as high as $780,

DEATH OF THE REV. JAMES C. FURaAN, d.
D.-Greenville, s. G., March 3.-The Rev.
J. C. Furman, ID. D., probably the most
prominent Baptist minister in the State and
man universally beloved and honored, died
this morning at his homo three miles from
the city. A catarrhl affection and heart
troubles were the immediate causes of his
death. His death was not unexpected, as
his old age and enfeebled eondi len would
not admit of resistadce sgainst the attacks
to which he was subject.
DIR. Furmau was a son Of the Rev. Richard
Furman, d. D., of Revolutionary fame, who
for thirty -one years was pastor Of the First
Baptist Church OF Charleston, and the
leading light in the early days Of the Bsp-
t'st denomination in this State.---The State

How Their Bridal Journey Down
Missouri Was Interrupted.

How Their Bridal Journey Down the
Missouri Was Interrupted.
Capt. Hilger, of Hilger's Landing, and
the popular steamer, Rose of Helena, was
in the city last evening. He tells how a
romantic elopement was interrupted on the
Missouri Thursday. Three young fellows
were seen coming down the river in skiff
Near Ralph Dunlevy's. place they landed
and took Mr.. Dunlevy's new skiff along in
tow. The owner yelled to them to stop,
but they paid no attention to his request,
and continued down the river. Then Mr..
Dunlevy secured the captains assistance
and together they ran down ahead and
stopped the travellers when two Winches-
ters were brought down on them. Mr..
Dunlevy's skiff had been left probably in
anticipation of an interruption. When
the tourists landed they appeared to be
young fellows, ranging from 15 to % years
in age. After little it was discovered that
one of the party was q young girl dressed
in boys clothes. All were thoroughly
frightened when told that they would be
arrested and taken to Helena. Explana-
tions which followed developed the fact
that the girls name was Belle Warner, who
formerly lived with her parents in Tucker
gulch, several miles from Helena. She had
eloped with one of the fellows named Drake
while the third was a young man named
Duval, who came to Montana from Missouri
few months ago. Belle said that her
father would not consent to her marriage
with Drake. SO they decided to elope. They
had run away from home week ago and
were on their way to Great Falls. They
begged for mercy 80 effectively that Captain
Hilger and Mr.. Dunlevy decided to allow
them to continue their journey.
