And the crow stood waiting outside until
the entrances we're thrown open; then, like
an avalanche from the mighty Alps, came
the rush. Equisitely dressed ladies with
lavender kids and white orepe de chine
parasols; swartby faces with huge willow
baskets: matrons with children by one hand
and wheeling a tiny carriage with the other;
Celestials whose long queues stood in much
danger Of being tread upon; stately elderly
ladies whose dignity was shocked by the
push; the blushinR bride hanging upon the
arm of her new-made lord; tho modest,
bashful girl whose low voice could scarcely
be heard for the din; the little child with
scrap held up, freshly cut from tho cata-
logue. (Scene at the New York Dry Goods

building last evening for the first time.
The trustees have three pleasant rooms set
aside for their use. one for meetings, one
for the clerk and one for the supsrintend-
ent Of schools. The change is a very de-
cided n from the quarters heretofore 90.

CUSTER COUNTY'S EXHIBIT.

She VIII Makes Good One at Helena and
at Chicago.
The board Of county commissioners of
Custer county has authorized the board of
trade of Miles City to collect and forward
an exhibit of the products of that county to
the state fair at Helena, the same to be
used in the Montana Worlds fair exhibit.
The county commissioners will bear the
expense. Custer county is the first to uu-
dertake this work in a systematic amer
and she will reap the benefit by the alton
ton that will be attracted to her resources.
Last year Custer county made the best apri-
cultural display at the state fair that has
been seen in years. if not the best ever made
by any Montana county. 1t attracted great
deal of attention and opened the eyes of
visitors to the fact that Custer was an aQri-
cultural as we'll as a grazing county.
Residents of Dawson county. who claim
their county is just as rich in soil and agri-
cultural productions rs Custer, say she will
make as good an exhibit az her sister
county.

King. author of Kings Digest of the Laws

tional case in chanoery between the widow
of Gen. Gideon Pillow and O. l. King. in
which Poston was Mrs. Pillows attorney.
After a holly contested trial. at Memphis,
in which the pleas Of insanity and self
defence were made, King was sentenced to
be hanged. The supreme court. to which
the case was appealed, to-day sustained tho
sentence of the lower court and remanded
KinR0to the custody of the sheriff of Shelby

The Boethick Indians of Newfoundland,
ut one time the aboriginal inhabitants of
the island, can now only be counted by one
or two skeletons and few skulls, so com
pletely have they been swept away. The
French employed the Mic Mac Indians of
Nova Scotia to fight against and extermi
nate them. The Boethicks were a peace
able and quiet race, given to hunting and
fishing. They used canoes made of birch
rind and of skins of deer like the Eskimo
cayak. They had no pottery, and used
utensils of birch rind sewed together, but
they employed soapstone dishes as lamps,
their form being similar to those among
the Eskimos at the present day.
They carved deer and walrus horns and
the bones of the seal into ornaments, which
they wore on their dresses, and ornamented
their heads with combs. The carvings are
In triangular patterns, and out of the large
collections in the museum at st. John there
are no two ornaments having the same
pattern. Their stone implements were more
rudely constructed than those of the west
ern Indians.-Philadelphi Ledger

CONWAY'S ANTECEDENTS.

There is quite a story connected with
the history of the dam of Conway, the
horse that took the Pimico stake at Bal
timore and took a record of 2:235 in IA
siX-heat race. Conway is owned by Col.
n. ii. Heft, formerly of Easton, Penn.
but now of Bridgeport, Conn. Bassini
& Radel owned Conway Idam, and they
also owned William II. Vanderbilt, his
sire. Conway is in the stable of W.
Grant of Trenton. who drove him at
Baltimore. As three-year-old he
could beat anything in that State. and
he will go into the 2 80 list before the
end of the season if no unforeseen occurr-
ence stops him. The first time the horse
made his appearance on the turf for stake
money in New Jersey he played with
his only opponent. and the fellow went
in 2:2S4 at that. Conway could have
trotted the mile the other fellow won in
, :2S! in 2;24.
Col. Heft did not think that Grant
would start the horse at Baltimore, al
though he was entered, as he had only
been handled three weeks. In his first
work he trotted the half-mile track or
Konover u BOyd's stock farm at Tren-
ton, in :3S, , "a and 2 80 and was ther
shipped to Baltimore.
The dam of Conway was sired by a
horse named Yankee Dan, which figured
in and around Hillsdale, Mich, some
years ago. He left a great many of his
produce in that section, and they not on
~ trot with great uniformity, but the
mares, when crossed with stations OF
strong trotting inheritance, invariably
throw trotters. Yankee Dan had a RECORD
of about > "a. His produce is held in higl
repute in Michigan, and are eagerly
sought after by breeders.-[Turf, Fielc
