Alfred Magnus, travelling passenger
agent of the White Star Line of ocean
liners, plying between New York and
European points, is in the city. He makes
Butte about four times a year and says
1t pays him to do SO, as there is more
OCEAN travel from this point than from
any other city in the northwest. He says
his company has just launched, and will
soon put in commission the Oceanic"
tn. largest steamship ever floated, and
beside which the Great Eastern of earlier
fame would be small. This ship will be
over 700 feet in length, and will carry
5000 passengers. It's displacement will
be 17,O4O tons, n it's speed a little slower
than the smaller vessels of the line. The

rates were never better than for the last

has lately been holding meetings with
railroad officials in various cities for the

along the line the Great Northern is
erecting small houses for the several Sec
ton foremen, and the present section
houses are to be used by the Japs. Large
forces are being distributed all along the
road and much work is being done on the
rOadbed the present season.
over 300 men are at work constructing
the Great Northern's new approach to
the Columbia river from the east in the
Big Bend country. The headquarters
camp is at Trinidad, where are located
the offices of Foley Brothers, contractors.
This construction work is being rapidly
pushed and will be completed early his
summer from present indications. The
object of it is to get away from crossing
so many dry coulees, that are a fruitful
source of trouble in spring thaws. The
line being built is only about 10 miles in
length, is somewhat longer than the pres
ent route, but is a much better one in
every way.

A few days ago Finkler received a let

him to return to his native country and
endorsed a draft for 300 marks with
which to pay his passage. Out of his
money he paid his fine and his attorney

The Nasur and the Fiddle.

Here is a story that the late Freder-
ick Douglass used to tell about himself,
says the Buffalo Express. Once when
he was in Dublin he felt very lonesome.
He was wandering about the streets
when he was attracted by two violins
in the window of secondhand dealer.
Frederick entered and asked the price
OF one Of the instruments.
Give shillings, sor," said the Irish
dealer.
Frederick tuned the violin and began
to play "Rocky Road to Dublin" Soon
the proprietor's wife heard the music
and entered the rear door. Then Fred
erick started in on "The Irish Washer
woman, and the couple began to dance
for dear life. When the music and
dancing stopped, Frederick rendered the
dealer shillings, but his performance
on the violin had greatly enhanced its
value in the mind Of the storekeeper,
and as he hurried away to place Of
security he exclaimed.

Hairdressing in Zululand is an i'm
portant feature, both to the bride and
bridegroom, and the attention paid to
the coiffure of the pair would shame the
performance of west end hairdresser
who arranges brides locks and fastens
the orange blossom chaplet.
A cone shaped erection, for instance,
is the lawful coiffure of Zulu wife,
and this cannot be legally worn till the
marriage rites are duly completed. Save
for the all important cone, the head Of
Zulu bride is closely shaved, an as
sagai being used for the purpose, while
as soon as youth is of marriageable
age his head is shorn to leave ring
around the scalp and then literally be-
smeared with fat and ocher, without
which unguents no Zulu would feel fit
tingly decorated for his bride.
When the bridegroom elect has been
shorn of all his hair save the wool on
the crown, which is trained in a circu-
lar shape and some four inches in diam
eter, ring is sewed to this gum and
charcoal. In this the Zulu thrusts Iona
snuff spoons, needles and small utility
articles and is very proud Of his ring,
which is the badge of manhood. Cas-

Theaters In New Zealand.

A New Zealand correspondent Of the
Baltimore Sun writes:
1.-THE first floor Of their theaters is
fat, supplied with plain, unpainted
wooden benches with open backs. The
balcony, the fashionable place, contains
only cheaply upholstered benches, and
is badly ventilated. Early door tickets
at 1219 cents extra are sold, admitting
the holder an hour before the regular
doors open, that he may obtain first
choice of the unpainted benches. Five
minutes before the orchestra appears a
big bell, suspended in the theater, is
violently rung, making all but the dead
jump. Then all knowing ones under
stand that order is wanted-the stranger
probably thinks it fire alarm bell
"Every Saturday night in all New
Zealand towns the people crowd their
leading street. They walk chiefly in the
street in preference to the footpath.
The girls, women, men and boys, young
and old, promenade up and down the
one street, meet friends and stand in
groups in the street. An occasional
cart, cab or tram, driven at breakneck
speed in their midst, makes the people
scatter for moment. with many mar.
row escapes. Vehicles, trans, cycles,
ETC., turn to the left instead Of to the
right"

The Elder Got the Best One.

An account of the life of Judge James
B. Bradwell of Chicago by his daugh-
ter tells story of the deeply religious
training of his childhood. He had the
old fashioned faith in the efficacy Of
prayer before he was of sufficient age
to understand the reasonable limits Of
such petitions.
Once, when James was only years
old, the wagon was sent to Chicago for
provisions. Five days elapsed. The
wagon was detained, and the Bradwell
family was without food and without
a man to provide it. Little James, as
usual with even small boys of the time
and place, was good shot. His mother
loaded the gun for him, and he started
out to see what he could shoot to sup
ply the table.
In due time he saw two prairie chick
ems not far away. He got his gun ready
and then took long enough to pray
thus:
80 Father. If you will just let me
bring down those two chickens I'll give
your minister the choice of the pairl''
The trigger was pulled and down
came the two prairie chickens. James
believed the shot to be direct answer
to his prayer. He took the two birds to
Elder Snow, the minister, and told him
Of the circumstances.
The good elder took long time to
examine the two chickens, in order to
be quite sure that he got the better Of
the two, because, he said, he thought
it best that the boys compact should
be faithfully carried out.

The Sign as 1t Was Designed and ~
It Appeared.
A journeyman halter, a companion
Of DR.. Franklin, was about to set up in
business for himself and wished to have
an appropriate sign to put over his
door. He designed one that bore the fol
lowing inscriptions: "John Thompson.
Halter, Makes and Sells Hats for Ready
Money" Following this was picture
of hat. But he was not quite certain
of the suitability of his sign, and he de-
cided to submit it to his friends for
their criticism.
The first that he showed it to object
ed to the word chatter" because it
was followed by the words "makes
hats, which sufficiently explained that
he was halter. The word was struck
out.
The next said that the work "makes"
was useless, because the customers
would not care who made the hats so
long as they were satisfactory and the
price was not too high. He struck that
out also.
The third man said that the words
"for ready money" might as well go,
as it was not the custom to sell hats on
credit; every one who bought expected
to pay. These words taken out, and the
inscription read, "John Thompson Sells
Hats.
His next friend said "sells'' might as
well come out, because nobody expected
him to give them away. What, then,
was the use Of the word? "Sells'' was
accordingly struck out and chats was
all that remained, following "John
Thompson.
Even this short as it was, was fur
ther diminished, and the sign finally
stood. "Jobn Thompson, with the fig

THE CLIMATE OF CHICAGO.
How Could the Poor Frenchman Tell
What 1t Could Dot


While in Chicago M. de Monvel, the
French artist, heard one story that puz-
zled him. 1t was told at dinner party,
and he smiled just as if he understood
it. That night he thought it over, but
the more he thought the less he COM
pretended it. Finally fellow artist
who had heard the story repeated it,
drew pictures of it, and then light
broke on M. de Monvel, and he laughed.
''Ah, we Frenchmen are stupid when
compared with the Americansl" he ex-
claimed. II shall tell that story, and it
will make Paris laugh"
The little tale was about a French
carpenter who bought saw from q
Chicago manufacturer who made q
specially of advertising. Engraved on
the tool was the assurance that "day in
and day out this saw will wear longer
than any other on the market" The
Frenchman read the advertisement,
and the day he bought the saw he put
it carefully away. The next day he
used it and left it out Of doors in the
pouring rain. A neiehbor demonstrated
with him for his carelessness and he
picked up the saw, pointed to its in
scription and exclaimed:
"Does not le scie-no, mean ze saw
