Uncle Sam, Uncle Sam,
Beware of the day,
When wages and wealth
Are in battle array.
For lockouts and strikes
Rush dark on my sight,
And policemen and sheritls
Are scattered in flight.
They rally, they bleed,
For the home and the town,
But the hurricane deepens
And all things are down.

Like a clap Of thunder out Of a cleal
noon that the we'll known firm Of j.
Easinski n l5rns. ha, made an assign
hIent 10 Herman DrrEel for the benefit
OF their creditors. The immediate cause
OF this action IS the maturing on Sept. /
Of two notes aggregating $500, which
were given to the Stockgrowers bank
and by that institution re-discounted in
New York. Notice Of the maturing Of
this paper and that it would be sent
here for collection on maturity. coupled
with the fact that at this time il would
be impossible to raise the funds TO meet
the paper. and the probability Of an at
tachlnent following failure TO pay. indi-
Gated to Basinski Bros. that the best
way to protect their creditors. and save
themselves from being utterly wrecked.
was to make the assignment. which was
done. The assignment covers both the
Miles City and the Bozeman stores. the
latter will be taken charge of by Her
man Orschel. the assignee. Who has
deputized Fred Orschel to act for him
in this city. The assets placed in the
hands OF the assignee covers all the real
estate of the firm. including the store
buildings at each place. the stocks of
goods and the residence at Miles City.
The liabilities are stated to be some
$4,000. while the assets at a fair valua.
ton in any times but these would aggre.
gate at least $4,000.
1t is a matter Of sincere regret that
circumstances have compelled the clos
ing of this establishment. 1t was the
Oldest business house in the city. having
done business here continuously for
nearly seventeen years. and at all times
carrying a stock of goods that for quail
ity and variety is rarely found in cities
five times as large as ours. The assign
ors. who are thus suddenly. though per-
haps only temporarily forced of
business. have the full sympathy and
confidence OF the community. In Her.
man Orschel as assignee an excellent
has been made. as his good
business qualifications ensures the best
possible outcome of the affairs entrusted
to him.

English and American Wealth.


The English and the Americans are both
rich, but which are the richer? Perhaps
the statisticans know or can find out, but
1t is not certain that the statistical answer
would give the information that one really
wants, and which involves the distribution
of wealth. as well its mere existence.
Most Americans have to work. but as is
well known. considerable proportion of
English people toll not nor spin, and make
no pretense Of doing anything for a living
Is that because the English are richer than
We or is 1t q matter of taste or a result of
primogeniture? So also it appears tfrom
close study Of documents submitted by An
thony Trollcpe and other contempCraneous
histOrians) that British gentlemen in re-
spectacle circumstances employ from five
to fifty servants, and have several houses
apiece, all of which they live in, and travel
much besides. An American Who lives in
that way is looked upon as a man of very
exceptional resources, but it would seem
that an English gentleman who does not
live in that way is thought to be somewhat
straitenei. At this time of year in England
there are 800 or 400 hunt clubs in active
operation, and something like 10000 Brit
ishers ride pretty regularly to hounds. But
hunting is an expensive sport that takes
both time and money. These English seem
10 have both to spare, and that although
these present times are not reckoned as
times OF special prosperity In Great Britain
80 Mir. DAVIS description in Harper's
Monthly OF life in London in the season
suggests a notable multitude of people with
money to spend and fixed habits of spending
it freely. A returned traveller was speaking
the other day of the shoals of agreea BILE
English people he met in the Riviera and in
all the play-piaces of southern Europe
When asked if they were rich people. he
said not, but that they were able to live as
they did because they knew how, and got
their moneys worth. He thought, too that
the well-to-do English had a more complete
domestic apparatus ready to hand than
most Of the Americans, and could spend a
larger proportion of their incomes on travel
and amusement. Houses and furniture and
such expensive vanities they had already
by inheritance, and were not compelled to
spend useful money in providing them
novels in three bound volumesi Would the
American buy novels in such costly form :?
Are not all the habits of living that we bor-
row from the British, from dock-ta
horses to indoor men servants, more costly
than the customs they supersede? They
must have a great deal of money to spend
those enterprising islanders. No one would
hesitate to say that the Americans are
richer than the Russians or the Italians or
the Germans, or even the thrifty French,
but the Briton gives pause. Is he really
richer than we are. or is he merely an
older son, and n dweller in a land where
servants work for small pay and clothes
are cheap and novels rented out by Nude
and the tax on stimulants is laid for rev.
enue, and not for prevention, and where to
loaf and invite ones soul is esteemed A
preferable thing to toll.

From the Liverpool Mercnry.
The story of the talking canary which a
few weeks ago attracted much attention,
has brought out other instances of an ac-
duired power of speech in the same bird
In the organ of the Selborne Society, where
the story originally appeared, there are
some further cases given, and probably
many more may be yet forthcoming. At
tention has been directed to an account of
q talking canary at Norwood which was
published in a natural history magazine for
1858. 1t began by repeating a word which
it's mistress had often used to it-"Kissie
kissie'-and by following the word no by
an imitation of the sound of a kiss Its
mistress had been in the habit of kissing
the bird and talking to 1t if it were a
child. After a time the bird repeated other
of phrases, one of which consists of five
words.
Again, in 1861 talking canary was heard
and seen at a cottage near Bath. Visitors
crowded to the spot to hear and see it. It's
voca bulary consisted of such phrases as are
generally taught to parrots. A case is also
recorded of a speaking canary having been
exhibited in Regent street about twenty
years ago. The explanation given is tina I
the bird is gifted with unusual powers of
imitation, and will pick up airs freely which
il is in the habit of frequently hearing
Left TO itself it quickly initiates the notes
of other birds, and in Germany and the Tv-
rol canarles are usually placed for this pur-
pose beside the nightingale. In our own
country they are often taught to initiate
the lark. The words which it initiates NAV
be regarded a mere development or va
RANT of it's musical notes.
