Most Horrible Of All Dreams.


No words are strong enough to
point out the danger of slow poison
ing by drugs which are often taken
to procure sleep, whether it he an al
coholic nightcap, morphine, opium,
choral or any other. The medical
man has recourse with reluctance to
these as a last and temporary resort,
and only he IA tell how many lives
are wrecked by the illtimed use of
them and their subsequent abuse.
OF all horrible dreams lone is so
awful as those which assail people
who habitually use these false com
forters. Better than all the drugs in
the world for procuring sleep are
simple food, a regular life and calm
mind. -Cassell's.

Geo. Young, who lives on a ranct

Geo. Young, who lives OH a ranch
on Sixteen-Mil creek, was out hunt
ing cattle last week, and in crossing
a creek, which was buried with
drifting snow, his horse broke
through, falling on him and breaking
both bones in his leg. He bandaged
his limb with his handkerchief and
crawled on his hands and knees one
mile and a half through the snow.
Reaching a ridge not far from the
cabin of Il sheep herder he h~allooed
until heard by him, who at first
thought it was a coyote, and did not
pay much attention to it, but on
account of the peculiar action of his
dog, listened closely, discover
ed it was a man and went to his
rescue. Mr.. Young had frozen his
foot, and was completely exhausted.
The sheep herder carried him to his
cabin, and afterward procured a team
and took him home. A White Sui.
phur Springs doctor was sent for
who upon his arrival set the limb
but owing to its swollen condition
could not set it we'll, and thu
probabilities are that it will have t,
be set again Or ampututed.

Have you ever noticed that every
once in awhile there comes a perfect
storm Of protests about that much
abused and long suffering pastime,
dancingf 1t is something like the
yellow fever or cholera scare; it
comes without warning and almost
overwhelms one, and then in a little
while some other topic is absorbing
public interest, and the harmless
waltzer, who never meant a bit Of
evil to anybody and is really too
good natured to wish any one other
wise than well, is left in the enjoy
ment of his favorite pleasure until,
for the lack of something else, the
poets, the preachers and the reform
ers inveigh against it, and in denun-
Citations the most awful predict ter
rible c~atastrophes to overtake the
idle minded who spend SO much of
their time in an ''insanely mad gyra-
ton"
But it is some comfort to know
that an eminent English physician
regarded dancing a very healthful
exercise, and recommended it with
out fail to his languid lady pa
tents. He considered that after a
long dinner the body needs exercise.
and he commended dancing as the
very best form in which that exer
else could be taken, affording relaxa
ton to the mind and melting activ
ity of the ody.-NewO Orleans Times

LAST Friday a miniature earth
quake struck Montana's capital city
shaking everything in the town but
the conscience of Governor Richards
and the local confidence in the per-
manency Of the capital. What a
man drinks has much to do with the
character of these marvellous phe-
nomena. In Neihart we never have
earthquakes, but frequently see
ghosts. One fact remains. There
can not be very much business in a
town where people have time to OBJ
serve either ghosts or earthquakes.

THOSE innocent dogs. They
wouldn't harm a hair of your head

But some of them still persist in
barking at and running after passing

the near future a runaway in which
one or two persons barely escape
death, all on account of the innocent
dog; and then let no man say that
the Editor failed to remind the
public in due time.

"SOUR GRAPES

The Editor of the Belt Mountain
Miner deserves pity rather than
sympathy in the way he receives and
comments upon the numerous and
marvelously rich strikes made in our
mines. 1t may be that a spirit of
envy has overcome or come over him,
and it may be that he observes a
more frequent train service here
than at Barker which is in itself a
card for the camp. Then he has
probably associated too long with
the class of men ~whonever go outside
their own door yard; who ever think
hat there is 10 other place worthy
the attention of capitalists but that
within the radius of their own vision,
and who are really surprised that the
monied class is not breakingits neck
in the rampant squabble for part of
their dominions. The squib which
reads, between the lines, of all the
above as we'll as of a 'sour grape
feeling, is as follows:
Some very encouraging reports as
to the prospects for Neihart during
the comingsummer lMve been heard.
But as our informants We're Neihart
men and as we have learned from
experience that they don't always
tell the truth about their mines we
refrain from publishing the reports
until authorized to do so by the
Neihart newspapers as they always
know more about the mines than the
owners themselves do.
We do not claim that all Neihar'
men invariably tell the time. Bu'
we do claim that when a fair average
is struck of the amount of verac.
ity possessed right here in Neihart
it will run so high above that of Ger
tain other Montana towns that a com
p~arison between them is eXtremel,

MORE ABOUT PEARYs TRIP.
A Barrel of Dispatches That Have a
Curious History.

While at Cape Yorke Peary recovered a
barrel of dispatches, which have curious
history. When his first expedition started
in 1891, he intended the following spring
to come south in his boats to Cape Yorke
and get home in a whaler. The United
States consul there therefore sent all the
accumulation of letters mailed for the
party, in his care, by the whaling
steamer Esquimaux on her voyage to
Davis Straits early in 1892, inc1osed IN
barrel, with orders to leave them at
| Cape Yorke, where Peary expected to
wait chance to get home. The cask
was landed, but meanwhile relief ex-
petition was organized, the Kite
chartered and sent for him, Returning
in September last, she stopped off Cape
Yorke, but is was blocked with ice, and
they failed to get in for that all-import-
ant barrel, and there. it remained till this
summer. The Falcon has now on board
the letters Of the mem ers of the Parol
expedition, of whom not one but Astroup
now accompanies Peary.
There also he got five Esquimaux-
three men and two women-who gladly
consented TOR the wage of few pocket
knives and bits of iron to tend the dogs,
harpoon walrus, train the dogs for sledge
travelling, and make themselves general
" useful. And pleasant family of dogs
that was. Imagine eighty-seven CANNES,
of all sizes and colors, and each with q
most ferocious appearance and teeth that
seemed to fairly ache to get ia bite at you,
slowed around the circumscribed area
of the Falcons deck fighting, snarling,
gamboling about and keeping up per-
petual barking and bowling that drove
sleep from the weary eyelids Of the pas
sengers and brought forth anthems
from the mouths of the members
thereof.
On August 3, the Falcon entered Whale
Sound and made her way TO Bowdoin
Bay, where Lieut.. Peary had already a
harbor decided upon, and which in
honor of the ship he named Falcon har-
Dor. It is in latitude 1918 north, 6
miles north of McCormick's Bay, his for
mer station, and that much nearer to the
ice cap, thus saving great labor in con
veying stores to it. The harbor is a small
safe, land-locked one, with good
anchorage Hills 1000 feet high surround
it, sparsely covered with moss, and seven
miles in the interior the ascent is made
to the ice cap. A level spot about hum
bred feet from the sea was chosen for the
site of the house, which was slowed in
sections in the ships hold. 1t was
quickly landed, with the stores. clothing
and other property of the party. 1t was
a bee hive of industry for days getting
the house up and the goods under cover.
On the cruise after walrus the ship got
to within twelve miles of Cape Sabine,
where the Proteus was crushed land
Greedy began his terrible and now his
torical retreat in 1884 Here the foe ice
prevented her passage, and she returned
to her anchorage,

Trade better than a Year Ago,

One of the leading wholesale mer-
chants on Commercial street says that
despite the hard times trade is in reality
better than it was year ago, because
there is so much less Of the credit sys-
tenn now than then. When the hard
times set in there was general making
ready for it that has saved Maine much
money. The country dealers, while or
dering less, have met their payments
more promptly than before. The city
dealers made it understood that they
must have the money for their goods, and
they get it. There is decided DISPOSE
tion to continue the system, and to sell
for cash OF nearly so. The street. is in
clined to carry the rule into the fall
trade, and the country merchants will
not object. This solid way of doing
business will save failures, and in the
end will be better for all concerned
