How far Russia is behind the times IL

Lack Of roads and railroads. There if

the question now perplexing the always
perturbed mind Of the car. In his realm
the people of one province may be feast

ants of another province are starving
with no means of communication be-

ization it would be only necessary to
know there was hunger in any locality
and brother men would open their hearts
and food would pour in in abundance,
certainly in few weeks time This is
why there can be no such desperate fam

When Jonathan Scoville willed $25, 00(

course after that his name would be in
the papers and letter engrossed in the
highest style Of fine art by professional
letter writer would at the very least be
voted to him by the directors OF the
aesthetic establishment which he meant
to remember SO munificently in his will.
But moi Ne'er letter. Not a word

turned in secret To his lawyer and

that he would revoke the gift to the

Port Electric Mails.

BY the present arrangement for mail
transportation from one part Of our large
cities to another. four letters can be put
into the postofiice Of, say, New York
at the same time. One of these is ad
dressed to Boston. another to Philadel-
phia, the third to Washington and the
fourth to an individual in Brooklyn or
the upper part of New York city, The
person in Boston, Philadelphia or w ash
ington will be reading his letter next
morning at the same time the individual
in Brooklyn or Harlem gets his. 1t takes
letter as long to travel from New York
to Brooklyn as from New York to Bos-
ton
An invention has been devised to
remedy this state Of affairs and give to
large cities rapid mail transit. The
object is claimed to he accomplished by
the port electric system of mail trans
portation. The company having the
matter in charge has been incorporated
in West Virginia, but will put the in
vention in operation first between New
York and Brooklyn. The distance DO,
tween the postofiices of these two cities
is about ga miles, and by the new sys-
tenn port electric trains can convey
mail from one to the other in from three
to five minutes. the trains being run ten
minutes apart.
In this case the line will cross the
Brooklyn bridge and follow the bridge
car and elevated road tracks. The line
will consist Of II single rail track. The
car that passes over it will have wheel
at each end and guide wheel attached
to rail above. The car will look much
like huge cigar 20 feet long and l;
inches wide. When the mechanical diff
ficulty of friction is overcome, which i.
the chief one in the way, according tt
the claim made, this iron and lightning
letter carrier will be able to race along
its track at the rate of from 1850 to 20'
miles an hour,
After the New York and Brooklyn
road is tried and proved successful, thei
the company will extend its operation
first to suburban delivery, to the town
of from ten to fifteen miles away from
great centers Of population This schem,
being shown to be practicable, the sys
tenn will be tried for long distances
, Going at the tremendous rate of speed
mentioned, it will be necessary to plac,
the port electric cars out of reach of or
; binary travel and traffic. This will b,
accomplished by elevating the tract
upon line of posts stretched along tn,

will be attempted on the same plan, ant

COLUMBIA FALLS. April 16.-[Special. -
The settlers out north and northwest of
Columbia Falls are complaining that the
surveyors nave not yet commenced their
work upon the public lands. although the
contract was let to them last fall. Many of
the settlers have been upon the land for at
least two years and are anxious to COM
nence fencing and farming but cannot do
so until they know where their lines will
run. They have now decided that unless
the survey is commenced at once they will
send in q petition praying for the caneella-
tion Of the contracts and for the work to
be given to other surveyors who are able
m willing to push the work forward with
out delay.
The literary society has met with q sue
cess that has surprised even the most sang
ulne. The meetings in the city hall are
crowded every Saturday evening and excel
lent programmes are invariably provided.
Work has begun on the Great Northern
depot. The company promises that it shall
be a building in keeping with the other fin 9
buildings of the city, which are second to
none in western Montana.

tour and in the %forty-two days gives a total
of seventy concerts, matinee and night.
It's tour has aroused an interest amounting
to excitement at times. az at Portland, Ore,
where at the opening of the sale of seats
there was a crush that carried even the
deaks, counters and Notifications of the
ticket sellers before it.
But the band and Sousa are not all.
Marie Secca, the peerless American prima
donna, who sings at the concerts, is a
sonpstress of rnrest powers. Though quite
unknown here in the west as a rule, she
enjoys a wonderful reputation on the coast
and in Europe. Throughout the latter
especially she achieved a succession Of
triumphs in opera that directed the atten-
ton of all musical Europe TO her. She
was prima of the Mapleson grand opera at
Covent Garden, London, and won highest
honors. Her voice. ia q soprano Of highest
range. sweet, pure and true. She has q
repertoire of twenty operas. Her singing
is one of the best features of the Marine
ban concerts.
The programmes as arranged by Sousa
are Of the most brilliant character, and
hardly fail ever to arouse audiences to wild
enthusiasm. The sale of seats " i'll begin
Friday morning at Pope & O'Connor's.

band has no rival-jn point of artistic ex-
csllence-among the military bands Of this
country, and is declared that on the same
score there is but one military band in all
tional band, and that IL the famous Gnrde
Repnblicaine. of Paris. There are bands of
even larger numbers, to be sure, but none
that are composed of SO able skill through
out.
It is proper to state here that the COM
plete membership of the Marine band is
brought along on this western tour. Every
man that belongs to the band and that
plays with it upon all national or impor-
tant state occasions at Washington will ap-
pear on the stage in Helena next Saturday,
April %, at tho opera house. And in n
in the Marine band is chosen after long
and severest trial for musical skill, tho
highest possible skill upon his particular
instrument. Every man is enlisted III the
marine corps OF the United States for life
or good behavior, and upon retirement
from active service in the band from ago he
is put uron the retired pension list and
provided for during the balance of his nat
ural life. Only artists Of superior abilities
are received at all. Every one is a solo
artist, if rsquired to serve in that direction.
! There are forty-eight in the band.
John Philip Sousa, tho distinguished
| director, ID quite as distinguished as n
composer as he 10 as lender. His compost
tions made him famous long ago and arc
quite as often heard in the great military
bands OF Europe as in his own native
Amerioa. He has directed the Marine
band since 1880 and has brought it to u
higher standard than ever before il at
