A clock is to be seen at Brussels
which comes as near to being q per-
petual motion machine as is likely
ever to be in invented; for the sun
does the winding. A shaft exposed
to the solar rays causes an up draft of
air, which sets fan in motion. The
fan acts upon mechanism which
raises the weight of the clock until
it reaches the top. and then puts q
brake on the fan till the weight has
gone down little, when the fan is
again liberated. and proceeds to act
as before. As long as the sun shines
frequently enough and the machinery
does not wear out. the clock will
keep going.-Optician.

The Reporter sim Living.

OF Luke Short, well known in the
West for his sporting proclivities and
his intrepidity, the Chicago papers are
saving that finding a fly in his glass of
milk, he tossed the contents of the
glass in the air, drew a revolver, shot
the fly, caught the milk in the glass
and calmly drank it. The reporter
who witnessed the feat is still living in
the truthful Worlds Fair city.

A Fayorite Remedy.

ChamberlaIn's Cough Remedy is a
favorite during the Winter months on
account Of its great success in the cure
Of colds. There is nothing that will
loosen a severe cold SO quickly, or as
promptly relieve the lungs. Then it
counteracts any tendency toward
pneumonia. 1t is pleasant and safe
to take, and fully worthy OF its popu-
larity. For sale by w. Ii. Stowell,

Mine's Opera House

Magician Hermann, the wonder and de-
light of young folks and an ever-popular
amuzer of the reoll lie will appear at M'ng's
opera house Friday and Saturday evenings
and Saturday matinee, June II and IL.
He will, as usual, be assisted by Madame
Hermann, Abdual Khan will also appear
and give an exhibition of East Indian nee
romancv. Hermann isnow without a rival
in his line of entertainment, and those
who like to be made to believe what they
NOW id impossible and to nave their sense
of sight contradict their conf on sense,
will find an evening spent undbe che magic
influence of the conjurer's wand a very
pleasant one.
There will be a number of other interest
ing features, including Strobeika, Herr
mann's latest and greatest illusion. Stro-
beika, as prevented by Hermann, is based
upon Russian romance, one of the salient
features Of which is the escape from prison
of a young officer of the guard, Ivan Ivan
of, through the ingenuity of his tiance, Stro-
beika, who in some manner obtained ad-
mission to his cell. loosel his shackles and
chains, and herself assumed them, keeping
up the delusion until Ivan was safely away.
In Herrmann's illusion the substitution OF
Strobeika for the manaclcd prisoner,
chained to the plank by the committee
from the audience, is said to be much more
difficult than was the original Strobeika's
h"ave and ingenious trick. New Black
Art "a Slave Girls Dream" "Florine,
the Child of the Air." and other novelties
will form an interesting part of the pro-
gramme. Reserve sale will open Wednes
day, June 10.

MAJOR WY A
A Statement From Railroader as to HIS
Administration.

A Statement From Railroader as to His
administration.
To The INDEPENDENT: ! was surprised to
read in your issue of June statements re
fecting on Major Wyman's administration
of Indian affairs on the Crow reservation.
These statements will be taken with the
proverbial grain of salt by Mr.. Wyman's
many friends in Montana, and by the many
influential citizens both in and out of the
state who used their influence to secure him
the situation. My acquaintance with Mr..
Wyman extends over q good many years,
five or six of which were in his employ while
he WAS officially connected with the North
ern Pacific railroad. That Maj. Wyman
wards Of their just du 8 becars3 of a per-
sonal grudge, | doubt very much; that lie
would use his official position to further Ii 8
private interests, | 10 not believe. do ntt
doubt that when Mr.. Wyman entered upon
the discharge of his duties, he proceeded
his control, with his political friends;
neither do l doubt that if there were any
favors to be shown to cattle firms, that
could be granted without Infringing on the
rights of the Indians, tnat those plums
were dropped in the way of his friends. AS
were not in it," There is a possibility
that this cry in the wilderness is
from one of that class. The wonder
is they were not heard from before. | am
inclined to think the pres NJ agent can
stand it. He has encountered opposition
before. Enlisting in one OF the IFst Mas
sachusetts regiments that offered its SER
vices in defence of the government, he en-
countered the fercest kind of opposition
in the field at Gettysburg, at Nashville and
before Vicksburg. He stayed all the same,
and never turned toward his New
England home until he last gun of
the confederacy was spiked. He has met
opposition since that; The foes he has
heidi at bay outnumber his hairs of silver
gray" The gentleman who makes these
statements say they can be substuntiated
by sufficient evidence to make them stick;
he thinks, or at least p%retends to think, the
Indians are badly treated, and evidentl v
wants folks to know it. Very we'll, let him
proceed to shave the matter Investigated by
the proper authorities. and if it doesn't
prove a case of an attempt to make
mountains of fact out of mole hills of sus-
picion, we miss our guess. The writer of
these lines is not Ill the employ of Mr.. Wy
man, does not derive any benefit whatever
from his administration, has not CON
tracted the ''office ITCH" and up to date has
SO symptoms of such malady; seeks no gov
eminent position and wants none. In all
my dealings ] have found him an honor

ing places sheep husbandry amongst the
most important sources Of reyenu to state
and county funds. Last year there WAS
shipped east from Montana close on TO 49,
100000 pounds of wool, which probably
brought somo $2,225,O00 in cash into the
state. The total output of mutton and
stock sheep in 1880 ia not known, but is va
r%ionsly estimated at from 100000 TO 10000
head. which would place an addi-
tional S8oO,000 to $1,0O0,0O0 to the
gross returns OF the industry last
year. his showing WINS made from
a total of about two million head of sheep
actually within the state. This year it is
estimated that the wool product of Mon
tana will reach Ii, 100000 pounds, which is
about one-twentieth of the total for the
whole of the United States.
Naturalists assert that as one travels
north or south from the equator the class
OF animals native to the various sections
becomes gradually of smaller size. From
this it is argued that northern ATTITUDES arc
better adapted by nature as o breeding
ground for sheep han for larger animals,
and that at no distant day the chief live
stock products of Montana will be wool

The weather yesterday afternoon was
anything but what was desired by the thea
ers-the first real touch of winter, with
snow and slush-but nevertheless Pope's

said that the entertainment ia one cal
cnlated to please q general audiencs and
which certainly delighted the people gath
cred at Pope's yesterday, says the st. Louis
ost-Dispatch. The play is handsomely
mounted, and in that alone is we'll worth a
visit. Inc stage pictures are all carefully
produced and the scenery is of the best,
and the electrical and mechanical effects
are novelties in their way. The electrical
effects and appliances are particularly
good. The pyrotechnic effect in the fourth
act. the rnvel on Walpurgis night on the
summit Of Rrooken is very we'll produced
and is calculated to please an audience
greatly. The cast supporting Mr.. Morrison
is a good one, and the choir singing is a
very enjoyable feature.

Our neighbor the Star has let
up in his vigorous campaign just.
long enough to announce that he
will also conduct a crusade against
the present legal rates for judicial
advertising which threaten TO crush
and Cypress the country.
This may be a brilliant stroke of
business policy, and we trust viii
reap its just reward. We do not
know of any country newspaper
man who has even made a comforta.
BILE living out Of judicial work alone
and when it comes to trimming it
off after the plan of our neighbor,
the revenue will be scans indeed.
The poverty Of our purse and the
inter lack of a bank account posi-.
lively forbid that we should strive
to emulate this jealous reformcr,
but we feel that something must be
done TO counterfeit the effact Of this
new scheme to enrich the public
and crush ont the poor printer. We
therefore offer to each and every
advertiser q handsome chrome free
Of charge, and to allour legal friends
a warm spot in our affections.
