The storm at Bismarck Wednesday
night did damage to the extent of sew
eral thousand dollars. Every cellar in
the city was filed with water, and it
even II oded the first floors of some of
the stores, doing much damage togoods.
Lightning struck q number of places.
and it is remarkable that there Was no
loes ct life., Along the lines If railroads
several bad washouts occurred.
Time makes great changes, saws The
Bismarck Tribune. At The tfioe OF
Agent Davidson, could have been seen
yesterday, two time cards, side by side.
One was of date September 8, 1878, and
the other, one of the latest issued. The
former is a little four page pamphlet,
printed on six by eight inch paper, and
contains the schedule for the whole OF
what then constituted the n Jrthern Pa.
cifo railway and its branches, together
gether with the Western railway.

to Brainerd, and which has since been
absorbed into the Northern Pacific. In
contrast to this. is the time cad which
now ope rates the Northern Ptcific and

one hundred pages, all closely printed,
and on paper about ten by fourteen
inches. Verify, time makes great

chatter of a parrot may for once

Some time ago, O gentleman who

The lady discovering what had

"a note from the gentleman him

BOston's Great Fire.

The great fire of Boston, which oc-
Cured November 8, 1872, started at
t! G corner OF Summer and Kingston
street, and spread over SO acres of the
business part OF the city, leaving
the entire district bounded by Sum
mer, Washington, Milk and Broad
streets a heap of smoking ruins and
destroying over 500, 600, 600 worth
of property. Many OF the buildings,
although OF solid granite, seemed to
be no barrier TO the spread of thecon.
Migration. Boston recovered with
marvellous speed from this terrible
blow, and the burned district Was re-
laid out in greater regularity, and the
buildings erected were Of more sub
stantial character and under strict
regulations with regard to greater
safety from similar disaster. Indeed,
the beauty Of the great avenues OF
warehouses in this quarter of the city
is now frequently commented on by
strangers.-Commercial Bulletin.

Cycling Considered Immoral.

cycling Considered Immoral.
They have evidently q ashort way,
with bic,yclists in thedominions Of the
Sultan. That despotic andnot-to-be-
trifed-with monarch is said to have
forbidden all bicycling in and neal his
capital, on the ground that the pas
time is Immoral and dangerous to
the State" Despotic rulers never ex-
plain, of course; otherwise it would be
interesting to inquire OF the Sultan
where he considers that the "immor-
atty comes in. Nor is it altogether
easy to see how the changer to the
state" is supposed to arise. Being a
comfortable distance from the Golden
Horn, I am emboldened to hint that
his sultanic Majesty has rather over.
done it. If he had been content to
justify his opposition to the .tdevil's
chnriot,.-as they say the bicycle is
called i'll Turkey-on the score OF
danger to individuals, he would have
had plenty Of sympathizers beyond
the limits of his Own country. As
things stand, l think we might do
worse than pack Off a few thousands
OF Y cyclists to Constantinople!

The Time When 1t Works Best not
the Same With ali People.
Disregarding states OF excitement,
which do not come within the scope
OF the question, the brain of a healthy
man or woman living a simple and
natural life would be most active as
soon as the process of. awakening is
quite complete. But as the demands of
civilization gradually abrogate the
process OF nature the period ofhighest
intellectual activity will vary accord
ing to the condition of the individual
mode OF life. The brain ofthe literary
man or the journalist is, az arule,
most active at night, although a
study OF the lives of the most celebrat.
ed writer's will, it should be added,
disclose q wide variety OF period and
method of work.
Again the highest capabilities OF
some brains are only developed dur.
ing the time that the mind is on the
borderland between sleeping and walk
ing. 1t is then that the brain, shut
off, as it were, from the confusing in.
luences OF the external world, seems
to concentrate it's energies upon it's
stored-up impressions, to review them
with marvellous accuracy and scope Of
vision, and to recombine them into
new shapes and projects for the future
with a clearness and originality I'm,
known i'll actual life. This faculty is,
however, almost entirely confined to
the higher orders of intellect.-Pitts-

MONKEYS AS PLAY ACTORS
A Wonderful Theater Where Apes

A Wonderful Theater Where Apes
p. r.. :.. Are the Players.
One OF the most interesting and en-
pertaining phases of the great REM Cir
rus is the so-called Monkey Thea
!sr'' which is connected with it, writes
he Berlin correspondent OF the St.
Louis Post-D Dispatch. This is always
a large wooden booth with an enorm.
Gus seating capacity, for the monkey
performances not only the delight o.
the juvenile visitors, but of their ell
ders as we'll. In fact elders and chill
dren are SO equally divided in mum
bers that it wouldbe difficult to tell,
except by actual count, which faction
was in the majority. The seats are
of primitive kind; long, wooden
planks are nailed upon supports,
bench-like, and sloping gently toward
the rear of the booth. There are
neither reserved seats nor private
boxes in this temple OF the muses. ded.
icated to monkey histrionics. The
stage is like any other of a third OF
fourth-rate vaudeville, but smaller
proportion to correspond with the
size of<he actors. n.
The trained monkeys seem to do
everything but talk, and the whole
might be regarded as a performance Of
mutes OF Liliputian size. There the
inevitable hero and heroine, the
william of the play in the shape
OF an ape, whose viciousness
consists in playing all kinds
of tricks on his fellow-actors; the low
comedian in the person of the valet,
who dresses himself in his English
lords Sunday wardrobe, and the
waiter at the banquet, who carries a
covered basket, from which he serves
his guests with all the grace and dex.
terity of q Delmonica attendant, and
spices the monotony of the proceeding
by spilling the contents of a dish in
the lap of the host, who immediately
proceeds to chastise the offender by
a round of boxes on his monkey ear.
The monkeys are splendidly train.
ed, and appear on the cue of their
trainer, just as the real actor obeys
the u OF the prompter. The whole
is, Of course, a variety show, wherein
monkeys initiate the function OF men.
A carriage, for instance, drawn by a
pair of Shetland ponies, draws up.be.
fore the portal of a. mansion. Mon
sieur and Madame Monkey, gorgeous
ly attired, issue therefrom and enter
the vehicle, while coachman and foot
man occupy the box seat with all the
dignity attendant upon such functions.
The whole show is replete with di-
verse, grotesque and cunning displays
Of the initiative and retentive intel
lect. OF the monkey, and one no longer
doubts when reading of feats perform
ed by that ilk even in their savage
state. #.

AMichigan gentleman who had agood

The Holstein is a large and hearty

At the farm of Mr. Maurice Wes-

set on sixteen eggggs-thlrteen OF which
were Plymouth Rock eggs and the
other three eggs OF a common breed Of
chickens. The motherly old hen
Matched out the whole sixteen, but
when they were all able to run about
according to her clucking she seemed
to eye the three little aliens suspicious
ly. That Biddy disapproved the
mixture Of the breed was at once
evinced by the scornful n us
sumed, and soon she showed it in an
emphatic way by falling viciously on
the three strangers and putting a
sudden and violent end to their young
lives.-Atlanta Constitution.

Which beset the firm, which undertakes
to cast the lenses for a large telescope.
Sometimes, and, III fact, usually, these
attempts are attended with the most
annoying discourngelncnts. One of the
two great lenses, which, together, are
to form the 4O-inch glass OF the Lick
Observatory, in California, the fret
one is safe in q Cambridge factory.
The second lens was in process of con-

while it was in the furnace it exploded
