ON BEHALF OF THE CITIZENS.

Col. G. b. Nolan Tells of the Struggles of
Columbus.
On behalf Of the citizens of Helena, the
following address was made by Col. G. q.
Nolan: 'Surely ON this festival occasion.
commemorative of the discovery of q new
world, 1t is appropriate that Helena, the
metropolis of a new empire. should enter
heartily into the spirit Of the celebration.
The man whose existence and services We
to-day commemorate was no ordinary NOR
tai. Born at q time when Europe was I'M
dsrRoing upheaval. he wac one of the great
characters destined and appointed by prov
idence to transform the then condition of
things to a higher and grander state of per-
lection. Printing has just been invented
in Germany by Gutenberg. The HUSTLE
reformation are smouldering, and Luther,
the religious emancipator, and Copernious.
the astronomer, are reaching their major
ity. In Spain Ferdinand and Isabella are
on the throne. In the British isles the in
ternecin6 strife between the houses of York
close, Michael Angelo and Raphael by the
fire of genius are rendering animate the
forms of men and women upon canvas. It
is q creative period in art and Literature, in
science and religion, in discovery, invention
and navigation. Such were the surround
1n96 OF the nero Oh Lulh OCcaalOu, ouTlb-
topher Columbus. With no distinguished
lineage, whereby influence could be ex-
ertei at his will, the discoverer of a new
world encountered the then prevalent
theory that the world was fat and not
glopular. We find him proceeding from
one capital to another in the vain hope of
securing financial sid, so that his darling
project might be carried into execution. At
times scoffed at, and at other times desiR-
mated as an imbecile, he never wavered in
the confidence born of inspiration that he
was destined to be the fundamentally by
which discoveries would be made. happi-
ness secured, and christianity disseminated.
Read the history of his trials and, there is
something touching and pathetic in the
character of the man. Overwhelmed by
calamities, and Strengthened by adve,sity,
he never abandoned the purpose which di-
recteL his movements from one European
court TO another, and when at last the de-
sired assistance was obtained, and the
fruition of his fondest hopes and dreams
was about to be realized. he did not feel
elated, because that as u discoverer las
would be personally ~aggrandized, but that
the cause of science would be promoted, and
the dispensations of providence would be
placed within tho reach of those who other
wise would be eternally excluded.

allotted me to enter exhaustively into the
life and character of Christopher Colum-

An Expensive Lamp p.h ade.

Higgins, the street car conductor, was on the night turn last week and he did his sleeping in the daytime.
 When he, woke .p irom ms much needed rest one afternoon his industrious little wife brough. out for his admira ton lampshade made of colored tis sue paper. She had made it with hel own pretty hands, and its scalloped Dor. der was perforated with innumerable little holes, through which the light of the parlor lamp would fall on the table
 "Tell me if you think it is pretty" demanded Mrs. Higgins, holding the shade out for her husband to inspect it.
 1t looks lovely" began tho man, but as his eyes fell on it more closely ho turned pale and said, in hoarse voice, "You made those holes with my bell. punchY'
 "Yes, dear, whilo you were asleep. But what makes you speak that way" asked the little woman, greatly alarmed at the sudden change that had come over the unfortunate Higgins.
 "Oh, nothing" he said, ''only you've rung up enough fares on that lamp. shade to use up years salary. Every one of those holes will cost mo five cents, that's all."
 And the unhappy man groaned.-- William Henry Siyiter in Harper's Mag. azine.

AFTER MANY YEARS.

Uncle Reuben's Will Came to Light at
 Last.
 "Mother, why don't you dispose of that horrid old lounge" asked the eldest daughter.
 "It has been in the family for eighteen years, Cynthia" replied tho mother, a faded, careworn woman grown prema- turoly old, "and was your Uncle Reu- ben's favorite resting place. Often and often, when he came in from his days work at the office, he would throw him. self down on that lounge"--
 "What thanks do we owe Uncle Reu- ben. I'd like to know! What did he ever do for us? Didn't he leave all his prop erty to Uncle Fletcher, who didn't need 1t and hadn't a thousandth part as much claim on him as we hadY'
 "Your Uncle Fletcher, child, was his full brother and was only his adopted sister. The law gave the property to them, as have told you before. think he always intended to make will in our favor, but
 But he never didl Well, haven't any tears to shed for him nor any senti- ment to waste on that old lounge either Iwish you'd sell it to some dealer in secondhand goods or give it away to some family that's poorer than ours-if you can find any"
 ''I shall do nothing of the kind, Cyn- thia, but if it is such an eyesore in the sitting room you may have Q new cover put on it. Or you may take it up stairs to your own room"
 An idea struck Miss Cynthia.
 twill you give it to me if I'll adopt it?' she asked.
 "Yes," said her mother, "you can have it."
 
 Late that night there was a smothered sound of hammering in Miss Cynthia's room. She was taking the old lounge apart preparatory to interring its re- mains decently in the attic.
 As the back fell off collection of things that had worked their way down behind the cushion in the eighteen years of that lounges history tumbled out.
 Miss Cynthia gathered them up and catalogued them as follows:
 Seventy-eight hairpins. ao rusty needles, 8 pocketknivcs, fl buttons (all siZes), finger ring pair tweezers, 6 thimbles, l37 pins, pocket combs, l3 peppermint lozenges trnuch distig- ured).

 "Mother! Motherl Fatherl Georgel Sarah! All of youl Come up here, quick! I've found it!'
 You have guessed correctly. It was Uncle Reuben's will.
 And in tho back parlor of the fine new house built with Uncle Reuben's money the old lounge, resplendent in coat of bright varnish and a new cover, is grad. ually accommodating another store of treasures for some future historian.- Chicago Tribune.

Who Owned the Pew.

"If you had come and asked me for them you might have had all you wanted and welcome" This, if story tellers are to be trusted, is what farmers always say when they find bad boys rob bing their orchards. And it is true be. yond question that people in general like to have their rights as proprietors respected, even in the most trifling mat. ters. So it was with an Irishman of whom a reporter tells little story.
 There was special celebration of some kind in the church where he owned a pew. The building was crowded, and just as the service began this proprietor made his way down the aisle to the door of his pew, which was only two seats from the front. In it were two or three ladies, strangers to him.
 There was still abundance of room near tho head of the seat, but he stopped at the door, laid one hand upon the back of the pew next in front, and with an impressive wave of the other said, in a voice loud enough to be heard all over tho church:
 "Come out of that now!'
 The ladies, surprised and greatly con. fused, obeyed with all haste, but nc sooner was the last one out in the aisle than the man waved his hand gra. ciously:
 "Now in wid yez again, he remarked louder than before, "an make yerselves ter home. Oi only wanted yez to know wno owned the pew"
 His tone and gestures and smile were 50 polite and reassuring that the ladies resumed their seats and the priest went on with the service.--Youth's Com. panion.
