OLD King Behanzin, though he is
dethroned and shorn Of his regal
powers, is enjoying himself like a
Chicago Doodle alderman. The
French evidently consider that the
sanguinary ex-potentate OF Dahomey
ought to have something In exchange
for the broad domains they have
flched from him. Therefore, al

in boxpleats, but the front fits snugly
over the hips. The skirt garniture
consists OF a deep gathered flounce,
with sides curving upward. and just
touching the boxpleats. The bottom
OF this fiounce is tucked three times.
The bodice has fitted lining and vest
OF pique or of white watered silk,
which is bordered with double bretelles
slashed near the shoulders and form
ing a round collar in back. Plain
balloon sleeves and turned down
collar finish this dainty costume. This
vest Is one with the collar, but those
which are accompanied by shirt-front
and tie are for the most part cut high,
and show very little OF the shirt at the
throat. For wear for receptions with
brocade coats, the waistcoat Is Of silk

are fitted in gentlemanly fashion below
the waist line in front, they finish at

to the fashion OF the couriers of the
time of Charles H.. with tabs below

THE French are a most considerable

up that ploodthirsty old villain, King

a postal-card. l had only glanced at
1t when / remarked that it was the
writing OF man who had once been
a telegraph operator. My companion
agreed, and further suggested that
he had received his education in a
railroad Office, inasmuch as he dated
his postal in the right-hand corner,
whereas commercial operator al
ways writes the date in the left-hand
corner, as the blanks are made in
that form. Yes, and he has been q
bookkeeper; for, although the figures
were written hastily, they were In
perfect lines, added my friend. This
all came from our noticing the class
distinction in the writing OF a teleg-
rapher. We asked the man who re-
ceived it who had written it. He
gave the name of a. now prominent
businessman who began life as a
messenger in a railroad office, then
became telegrapher, next was given
a position of trust where book-keep-
ing was one OF his duties, finally
launching out for himself In q line
entirely foreign to railroading or
bookkeeping. The characteristics
that had crept into his writing dur
ing his early training were still Wis
ible. We bad guessed the history Of
the man from his writing"
"Soon Forgot When We Are Cone"
A strange lesson is taught by
science that, in the death of all or
ganic forms, nourishment, essential
to the growth and maturity of new
forms, Is furnished. Then In death
the best good of new forms is served,
endless and ever-recurring change
being the only permanent thing in
nature. Ceaseless change, the out
come of which we call evolution,
prostrates daily in death one hun
dred and twenty-five thousand hui
man beings, and also brings slight
ly larger number into the world by
birth. The same idea probably gov
ems in the higher domains of life,
and applies to the social, indus
trial, and business phases of ex-
istence. II this be so, every
one serves a certain purpose
In the scheme of existence and passes
into oblivion, so far as this atom Of
stellar dust we call the world is con-
cerned. 1t is by no means fatter-
ing utterance, though 1t may be the
truth, that this world is bettered by
the death of mortals aud that those
who go can be spared as well as not,
and that those who are left behind,
and interests which the dead aban-
don, do not suffer much by the sepa-
ration. A nation, or even group Of
centuries, resolves itself into a mere
thought, and the individual actors
quickly fade into the azure of the
past and are as nothing to their sue
cessors in time. 1t is not a pleasing
thought that when we shall have en-
tered the tomb the world will be
better of without us than with us.

Gossip from Gay Gotham.

New York correspondence:
The Yellowstone journal., 1894-11-06

The French marshal. Turenne, was a
great general, and his character bears
examination for nobility He was a
great man. Many incidents which are
related of him show his modesty, gener-
osity and honesty as well as his courage
and military ability. A little story of
one of his German campaigns illustrates
his rare scrupulousness even in time ot
war
The authorities of Frankfort believed,
from the movements of his army, that
he intended passing through their terri.
tory. They sent deputation to him
which offered him large sum Of money
if he would alter the direction of his
march and leave Frankfort unmolested
They were surprised in more ways
than one by his answer Gentlemen, :"
he said, my conscience will not per
init me to accept your money, for have
never intended TO lead my army through
your town. Youths Companion.

In addition to the yolumInous person

the production and issuance of another

heated WOLVES" and starts of with an
expression of confidence as 20 the results
of the pending election that no candi-
date would be justified in using until he
had certificate of election in his inside
pocket The burden Of their story is
that they wish tn accumulate full ard
reliable data concerning wolf ravages SO
that they may he loaded with facts
to present To the next Legislature. We
presume these gentlemen have already
settled the minor details. of which If
them will Introduce the bounty bill. and
which Of them Will take charge of il IN
committee, II is too bad that such a
charmingly presumptive collaboration
should be marred by an exhibition cf
weakness It the end. but the truth must
be told. that after inducing everybody
to dig up and send To them. wolf stats
tics in the belief that through them
alone a bounty law is procurable these
merry maskers say in conclusion that all
information received by them will be
cheerfuly turned To the successful can
didates after election" The sentence
quoted shows plainly that Messrs.
Brown and Hopkins do not mean to de-
ceive the public, but before issuing a
circular in the language used by them
they should have considered that great
many people do not read circular
through. and SO they may have been the
cause OF creating the impression that
they were actually members Of the legis-
lature. thus working a great injustice to
Mr.. Browns good friends Mr. Glib and
Mr.. Kelsey. not to mention the republi-
can candidates Messrs. Gordon and
Waddingham.
1t is oursunpleasant duty to state that
Messrs. Brown and Hopkins are not
members of the Legislature Of the state
of Montana nor do We believe that they
ever will be- After the election the
chairman of the republican central com
mittee will send to each of them self
addressed stamped envelopes, in which
they can enclose all the data they have
been able to collect regarding the dam
age wrought by wolves.

As soon as she is able to run about
each daughter of a German farmer S
family is presented with a linen bag
marked with her own name, into which
she puts all the feathers she can pick
up. Not the slightest downy bit escapes
her, and the sooner the bag is filled the
greater the praise she gets from the
parents. The bag being full, it is emp.
tied into larger one which hangs in
the garnet or elsewhere, and when there
are feathers enough they are made into
pillows or holsters or beds or cushions
for easy chairs We waste a great deal
in this country. Although we do not
keep so many geese as Germans keep,
chicken feathers are plentifully strewn
about most farms and make good beds.

The extracts from the Forsyth Times
published in this mornings Courier. are
not consistent. One Of them refers 70
the false cry Of county division" and
the other, over the signature OF five
citizens. says that county division has
been live issue In that community for
two years. Whose word will the people
take-Old Carpet Dagger Joe Aliens or
the combined statement of Messrs. Grim
minis, Peavey. Kennedy, Tabera and Ham
mond. When these last named FIVE
residents of Forsyth say: that the town
has been discussing county division for
two years past. you can bet your money
that it is true. A rule OF Ievidence is
that the best evidence is that obtained
by admissions under cross-examinations.
These five gentlemen didn't mean to tell
all they did. but being under cross
examination as il were. they were forced
in order to make another point. to con-
fess the truth about county division.
Don't be deceived by denials There is
a combination existing lat Forsyth that
has for its object the ownership OF new
scounty with the county seat at Forsyth.
