HELENA, Mont, March ESPECIAL. =
The Plymouth clothing store was ran
sacked by burglars last night. Entrance
was effected through a skylight in the roof
of the store. whence the robbers descended
by means of a small rope. Though the
store was lighted by two electric lights
and on the main street. the burglars
worked without interruption for some
hours. They were experts in the clothing
trade, and their selections were confined
TO the very best. Their plunder is worth
fully 81, 800, and consisted of twelve dozen
silk handkerchiefs, five dozen fine shirts.
twelve suits of silk underwear. about
twenty suits of clothes, the most expen-
sive patterns in the stock, several good
overcoats and the pick of the jewelry in
the stock. Having completed their selec-
tions the burglars departed by the rear
door and have not been heard of since, nor
have the police the slightest clue. The en-
tire stock was turned upside down in the
process of plllaging, many of the goods
being taken from the front show windows
The raid was the boidest and most suc-
cessful ever made in the city.

will be OF great benefit to all our readers
who wish to learn rapid writing. Fa-
miliarity with this art is OF great advan-
tage 10 young men and women seeking
employment, stenographer being indis-
pensable in every business house. Ex-
perts are always in demand at good sala-
ries. Ability to write Short hand is OF
use to students and teachers in their
work, and is found to be of value to all
professional mon and other persons
whose occupation involves much writing.
30 widely are its merits recognized, and
so generally has stenography come into
vogue that it seems likely that this
method will before many years supplant
the old slow going long hand. At pres
ent Short Is taught in special
schools at a cost that puts this instruc-
ton out OF the reach of many. 1t is for
the benefit OF such that these lessons are
offered. The principles OF Short hand
are simple and may be learned from
printed directions as we'll as from a
teacher, and knowledge of the art may
be gained from the lessons which we are
going to publish much more cheaply, and
iege.
The author OF the lessons will correct
all exercises, answer all questions, and

Overreached HIMSELF.

A shoe manufacturer of New Eng.
land, becoming dissatisfied with the
efforts OF his statesmen, started over
the route of one of them (without his
knowledge) to see what he could do in
the way of selling goods. He didn't
meet with any success. and at last. on
learning from an old customer that he
was too late, the order having been
placed, he offered to take the order at
one cent per pair less il the dealer
would countermand the one he had
given. This was agreed to, and the
manufacturer returned with the feel
ing that his journey had not been an
entire failure. But he discovered on
looking at his correspondence that i,

man which he had bribed the dealer to
repudiate. Then he soliloquized in
