SO1ne Incidents of That Mad Ride to
Death at Balaklava.

SO1ne Incidents of That Mad Ride to
Death at Balaklnva.
OF that mad but heroic charge a hun
dred incidents are preserved-thrilling,
humorous, shocking. The Cornhiil
Magazine tells of a man of the Seven
teenth lancers who was heard to shout,
just as they raced in upon the guns, a
quotation from Shakespeare, "Who is
there here would ask more men from
England?'
The regimenta] butcher Of the Seven
tenth lancers was engaged in killing a
sheep when he heard the trumpets sound
for the charge. He leaped OH a horse.
In shirt sleeves, with bare arms and
pipe in mouth, he rode through the whole
charge, slew, it is said, six men with
his own hand, and came back again,
pipe still in mouth!
A private of the Eleventh was under
arrest for drunkenness when the charge
began, but he broke out, followed his
troop on a spare horse, picked up a
sword as he rode, and shared in the
rapture and perils of the charge. The
charge lasted 20 minutes, and was ever
before such daring or such suffering
packed into a space SO brief? The squad
rons rode into the fight numbering 673
horsemen their mounted strength when
the fight was over was exactly 1876.
It was all a blunder, but it evoked a
heroism which made the blunder itself
magnificent. And as long as brave deeds

said to live a matt. e., a demon-call-

Now, when this happens it is a warn

A Canadian barrister is responsible
for the following: One day a farmer
came into his office and requested thai
a Photograph will should be prepared fol-
his signature. The lawyer began at
once to explain terms, but the tiller Of
the prairie, who prided himself not a
little upon his legal knowledge, only
grew angry. "Iwant a Telegraph WILL, y
he declared, "and Pm going to have
it," he added in parenthesis. When the
impossibility of his request was still
pointed out he angrily stumped from
the office shouting out "D-n it! If

we'll die intestine!"
Almost as funny was the tradesmar

He came to the lawyer with instruc,

asked his reasons, he gave them thus

The Romans were the first people to
practice blowing between the rows Of

blowing them up, but instead it was
found that the rows accidentally hilled
were twice as large as those that were

Chinese farmer is of the rudest con-
struction. The pillow is usually drawn
by women of the lowest classes.
Two hundred and fifty years ago,
when the corn stolen from the Indians
by our Puritan ancestors was planted in
the sand Of Cape God, the only instru-

shaped Dutch hoe, which required a
heavy man to handle at all. Our first

LOOKING TOWARD MONTANA.

Eastern Farmers Awakening to Great
That. Montana is attracting attention
in the east as a good field for invest
ment and especially as all advantageous
location for those seeking a country of
vast agricultural possibilities is shown
by the following article from the Phil
adelphia Enquirer:
The time was when Montana was re-
garded as a hopeful mining territory.
Changes came and Montana Mines
was q byword to express anything
that was played out and no good. The
state received a black eye through sew
eral Of its commercial and public trans
actions and it had gradually come to be
looked upon as a deserted mining camp
and a rotten political borough. The
cloud is lifting, however and the re-
generation Of the state is slowly but
surely occurring.
Through intelligently directed plans
Tor irrigation immense tracts of valley
and bottom land which have hitherto
been regarded as unavailable for agri-
cultural purposes on account of the arid
quality of the soil have been made pro.
ductive. The same methods which ell
abled the Mormons tt make Utah a
land of milk and honey have been in
voked to ave millions Of acres Of Mon
tana. Farms and pasturage cover vast
areas which formerly were dry plains
planters and cattlemen are reaping the
reward of their intelligent efforts.
The result Of this is that farmers in
the east are turning toward Montana
more and more each year. The sales
of public and railroad lands for agri-
cultural and stock purposes last year in
that state amount to more than a mill
ion acres. mostly to new settlers, who
are bringing money, machinery and
fstock into the state. It is, moreover,
to a large extent a migration of Ameri-
cans, for the percentage of foreign buy
ers is very small. A good symptom is
that the land is passing from the hands
Of corporations like the Northern Pa
cific into the hands of individual far
mers and grazers.
Nor have the ewcome remained
satisfied with things as they have found
them. Communities are organizing
new irrigation and canal companies all
the time and the best engineering tai.
ent is being used to direct these affairs
with the greatest economy. This
means an additional acreage of areable
land and the regeneration of Montana
through al agricultural impulse.
