Hunting With Beagles.

Maryland boasts the best beagle
packs to be found in this country
today, and it is there that the sport
has been brought almost to perfec-
ton. In that state a number of packs
II hunted without the gun and are
trained to run their rabbits to a kill.
These hounds are followed on foot.
and the chase is most interesting
and exciting. A successful pack will
kill fairly or the ground half the
rabbits it starts. and the scores made
by some are far better than that.
These beagles run with a dash and
speed rarely seen in those which are
hunted to the gun. They know that
there is no time to waste; that they
must press their quarry every in
slant, or he will escape them. They
drive at full speed and overrun but
little. When checked, they cast in
different directions, bark to one an
other instantly and throughout the
chase or with wonderful precision
and intelligence.
Such . pack is not made in a day.

Telephone for Neihart.

The Great Falls and Lewistown tele-
phone company, represented by Col.
Hobson and Austin W. War; of Lewis
town were in town last Monday looking
over the proposed line of the new tele-
phone. This line, starting at Neihart, is
to connect with the Great Falls and Lew
town line at Mann's ranch, with offices
en- route at Monarch, and at Judge Lees,
The Mann office will be the central sta.
ton connecting Neihart to the westward

with our sister towns than ever before.
Speaking with Col. Hobson upon the
subject, it was learned that the company
has long had in contemplation the build
ing of this line, and, but for ce rtain OPP
posing circumstances, it would have
been built last fall. He said the line
would be in running order within sixty
days, and that it is all paid for. TIL.
fact that the people of Neihart are asked
neither for a subscription nor for a guar

Better Than q Wife.

The placid oriental, when his
wives rave or affection smites him,
will stroke his heard-if he have one
and thank Allah for the good gift,
Which on the Moslem's ottoman divides
His hours, and rivals opium and his brides
An old Persian legend, brought to
light by Lieutenant Walpole, tells
the story of a virtuous youth dis
traught at the loss of a loving wife.
A holy man looks tenderly upon the
d~isconsolate one and tells him of a
balm for his affection. go to thy
wife's tomb, son Of SORROW" says
the anchorite, "and there thou wilt
find a weed. Pluck it, place it in a
reed and put fire to it. Then inhale
the smoke thereof. This will be to
thee wife and mother, father and
brother, and, above all, will be a
wise counselor and teach thy soul
wisdom and thy spirit joy" The
lofty, poetic strain of this eastern
sage breathes of implicit faith in his
native Shiraz tobacco. for doubtless
he, a dweller in

Are emblems Of deeds that are done in their
cline,
Where the rage OF the ~vulture, the love Of the

Now melts into sorrow, now maddens to

IN THE FiRECiGHT.

The fire upon the hearth is low,
And there is stiffness everywhere,
And, like winged spirits, here and ther
The freight shadows f1uttering 60,
And as the shadows round me creep
A childish treble breaks the gloom,
And softly from a farther room
Comes, Nov l lay me down to sleep
And somehow, with that little prayer
And that sweet treble in my ears,
My thought goes back to distant years
And fingers with a dear one there,
And as hear my HID amen
My mothers faith comes back to me.
Crouched at her side, l seem to be,
And mother holds my hands again.
Oh, for an hour in that dear place!
Oh, for the peace of that dear timei
Oh, for that childish trust sublime!
Oh, for a glimpse of mothers face!
Yet, as the shadows round me creep
do not seem to be alone
Sweet magic of hat treble tone
And "Now lay me down to sleep"

The Democratic Caucus.

A bakers dozen of our citizens met in
A. o. U. W. hall last Saturday evening
and organized themselves into a demo-
cratic caucus. And when the news was
telegraphed to Washington, Grover told
the New York World that the cause of
sound currency is Frightening.
After staring at each other for an hour
or so, and for the third or fourth time
filling their cob-pipes, Judge Gray broke
the overwhelming, dark-blue stiffness by
expostulating upon the inspiring theme,
"What are we here for?" His speech
provoked great volumes of smoke from
the half dozen killikinick furnaces, and
everybody present tried to think.
Dick Brennan then spoke at some
length upon the bright outlook for silver
and the democratic party, until there was
not a dry eye i'll the house, and the smoke
was so dense that members had to chop
their way through from one side of the
room to another.
Chairman Mitchell next announced
that something must be done, as the last
poke of plug cut was almost collapsed
and the fun was nearly off. This woke
the house to a sense of the dire emergen-
cy, and a hasty appropriation bill was
framed and passed, providing for the
purchase of ten cents worth of II. r. &
s. mixture smoking tobacco.
1t was decided to select a few Of their
number who were willing to go to the
county seat and implore the convention
not to indorse the wisdom and sagacity
of the Cleveland administration.
The following were chosen:

Everywhere there is a demand for news.
The public is continually crying for in
formation, and the only question is:
"Where can we get the best at the low
est cost?:' THE HERALD is now pre-
pairing to increase its news service in a
very material way, and hopes soon to
give its readers a much better paper they
have been receiving.
In order however that the public may be
benefited, that each su' scriber may re-
ceive more reading matte , specially rel
alive to the doings of the outside world,
we have arranged with various publishers
to give our readers a metropolitan daily
or weekly, of their own choosing, togeth-
err with the NEIHART HERALD, ut little
more than the cost of M paper. The
rates published below are per annum, in
all cases including our own paper with
the one indicated. To new or old
subscribers the same rates will hold, but
in every case, cash must accompany the
order. 1t will he observed that all these
papers advocate the Free coinage of
silver. Also that each political party is
represented by one or more publications,
and that the list is filled with the best
metropolitan papers, representative of
the western idea.
