A journalist now in Helena has in- vented a process for placer mining which does not require any water. We are not surprised that this in- vention comes from a journalist, as they never have much use for water any way.— Phillipsburg Mail. We learn that a rich strike has been made in the Lent mine, of ore that will assay one thousand dollars per ton. good and we wish that the Lent may — a veritable bonanza. If the Mineral Hill country develops into a good mineral region it will be a God-send to the Bitter Root people. -~New Idea. ; Montana mining companies paid dividends as follows for the first seven months, January to August of 1888 : Granite Mountain............. $1,200,000 Sry ee eiveccloskic \75 SSRs doh couandsn sivtedtes aves 50,000 Mss ins aha eniees odaenbaee 172,000 Montana PSs vin continence nba 369,600 SD vue dus aes ciealeke voeeul 6,000 DES AN pet cats sek sats ok 5 1K100 MR iicupicteeine ce x 926,600 J.

Doe. Gleason is just back from the Lowlands and brings the outlines of a horrible mystery in that section. Some time since, he says, an old Dan- ish prospector built a cabinin a lone- ly = in that section, where he lived all alone. He was seen around occasionally, and although not of a particularly congenial character, the district naturally was a little con- cerned for his welfare, when it was noticed that he had not been seen for some days, It was thought probable | that he was sick and unable to leave the house. So last Saturday some of the boys went up to his cabin to learn what was the matter. On entering evidences of confusion met their eyes. Theyerbin bore the appearance of havilig been the scene of a bloody encounter of some kind. Clothing, blankets and such articles of furni- ture as the old man had, were scat- tered inevery direction and every- thing was covered with blood. The blankets and clothing were in many cases almost torn to pieces. The floor was also spotted with blood and on the door sill there was a great red stain. It is thought probable that the old prospector had left his cabin door open some hot night recently and a ferocious wild animal—a bear probably —-had seized on the old man while he was asleep and killed him, afterwards carrying the body off and devouring it. “They have searched in every direction, but at lastaccounts had been unable to gain any further | information.-_Juter-Mountain. Bismarck’s Tribute. The opinion of the great Premier, Prince Bismarck, regarding the tariff | question is interesting. Ina speech | before the Reichstag, he said : | The suecess of the United States lillustrous of modern time. The American nation has not only suc- i cessfully borne and suppressed the |most gigantic and expensive war of jall history, but immediately after- | ward disbanded its army, found work | for its soldiers and marines, paid off most of its debt, given labor and | homes to all the unemployed of Eu- rope as fast as they could arrive within its territory, and still by a system of taxation soindirect as not to be perceived, much less felt. Be- cause itis my deliberate judgment that the prosperity of America is mainly due to its system of protec- tive laws, I urge that Germany has now reached that point where it is necessary to imitate the tariff system of the United States.” far The No Rose Bordered Road. It would be well if every boy in America or elsewhere would write in his own hat with a blue pointed pencil that there isno rose bordered road to success, and that even man who is born beautiful and mar- ries rich has to fight his way, says | Bill Nye.

A SIOME IN ALGIERS. A GLIMPSE OF QUIET COUNTRY LIFE AMONG THE MOORS. English Travelers Entertained at a Pretty Villa—A Group of Kabyle Peasants. Flirting with a Handsome Kabyle Girl. Tea and Cake. The road to Tikserian winds over the s n hills of the Sahel, amon fields and vineyards and white an houses, and descends at last through a deep rocky ravine to an old Moorish aque- duct, thrown boldly with gray arches across the bottom of the valley. We pass under the aqueduct with its moldering round arches, on one of whose grim stones some Spanish Christian slave carved long ago the dim and half obliterated inscrip- tion, ‘‘Ano 1798;” we turn aside for a mo- ment to the gray Moorish village that clings to the hillside, with its tumble down houses and its open air cafe, whero Arabs loll at ease in picturesque attitudes, propped on bare elbows, and discuss our personal appearance with evident frank- ness; we drink from the cool water of the ancient marble fountain, that invariable accompaniment of all North African ham- lets; and then we continue our way on foot by a rocky path, bordered with as- phodel and the tiny bMe Sicilian iris, to the Arab house itself, in whose hospitable courtyard we mean to drink the national beverzge under a cool portico. The villa belongs, in fact, to a rich old native gen- tleman in Algiers, who comes out here only for his summer villeggiatura, and we have obtained his leave today to de- scend upon it in force, to the evident sur- prise, delight and amusement of its ami- able little horde of Kabyle caretakers. Nothing we have scen in Algiers has been quite so genuincly native as this, and nothing at first sight has so unre. | servedly charmed us| We enter the villa through an outer farm yard, which leads by an arched doorway to the actual arcaded court yard of the house. Opening this door, a delicious native picture bursts at once upon our sight. Through the half- circle of the arch we sec in front of us a | tiled floor, overshadowed by ancient, gnarled orange trees; a central marble fountain, bubbling up and overflowing with limpid water into a cool basin; an Arab home of antique, flat roofed archi- tecture, set on one side, with its open colonnade of daintily sculptured pillars occupying the other, and in the midst of all, lighting it up with their graceful presence and free ease of movement, a pretty group of five assorted Kabyle peas- ants. ‘lwo were old women, still lithe and active, with uncovered faces and tattooed foreheads. One was a mother in the prime of life, with her 2-year-old baby in her brown arms, and one was a young girl of extraordinary beauty, well built and high stepping, round of arm and rich of bosom asa Greek statue. It was the Orient at home; we paused and looked and admired it silently. ‘The men were absent; I cannot honestly say we missed them. That Kabyle baby, in particular, was a perfect little model. He toddled about the court yard in his naked feet, he had the so sorely need pretty men with buck- | the grass grows and water runs. the | bands, my dear, who get up cross | bang things | around, and kick likeeverything just | | shuffled off his wee slippers in a far cor. ner, with a tiny burnous thrown around | his fat, small body anda miniature cowl over his round little head, as quaint and comic a human figure as ever IT have scen in the course of many wanderings. We asked leave by pantomime to light our etna and make our tea under the shade ef ‘the colonnade, and our Kabyle hostess, catching readily at our meaning, accorded her permission with a friendly smile. The handsome girl, going out into the front yard, lighted a tire of sticks hastily with her beautiful hands, and set to work in a tiny little cabin of a kitchen to prepare us asort of griddle cake in a round pan, while the baby stood by with his big, grave eyes, and seemed no more afraid of the Christian intruders than of his own | friends in the court yard close by. Mean- | while the old womcn also busied them- | selves to make us a bowl of the national | dish, cous-cous, a sort of porridge pounded from the semolina of hard wheat. | The Kabyle women do not veil their | faces, like the Arabs, nor are they afraid of strangers; on the contrary, our beauti- ful friend who was making the griddle | cake seemed distinctly to understand the | civilized European art of flirting. She blew the fire from time to time with her own pretty lips, and then turned round to us those languid large syes of hers as if ' to demand our instant admiration; she | allowed the wind to rustle open the haik that covered her full neck, and then gath- | ered it together coquettishly with a twist of her fingers, yet not so tight as quite to prevent it from revealing to us every now and again the statuesque perfection of her lovely shoulder. She was light as a Christian and elmost blue eyed. ‘‘Gen- serie and his Vandals,” said the ethnolo- gist of our party. I don't know myself; I only know for certain she was well favored and a bonny lass of whatever ex- traction, Aryan or Semitic. By and by the kettle boiled, and we sat down on the edge of the old tiled floor, with the water gurgling at us in tlre | marble basin, and drank our four cups of | 5 o'clock tea under archways that then, for the first time, no &oubt, made ac- quaintance with the savor of our British ‘beverage. Our Kabyle baby friend tod- dled up and eyed our cake askance with curious and eager eyes; we gave hima | piece and he ran back to the house with it, but, whether on religious or di- | gestive grounds I know not, a loud cry, exceedingly western in note, shortly an- | nounced that his cruel mother had taken |it away from him. We appeased him with a small bit of bread and ham, which no rule of the Prophet seemed to forbid. After tea we held high palaver at the door; the Kabyle women displayed their jewelry, and took us over their house, from the porch with its look out, where the Moorish women made sure they might venture forth unveiled into the court, to the flat roof with its splendid view over hill and ravine and aged cluster of waving | palm trees. The pretty Kabyle girl followed us tim- idly up the stairs, but fied coquettish, wken we turned and looked at her, into dark side chambers. Even the staircase had its dado of rich titles, and the best bedroom was a miniature museum of Oriental domestic architecture. We went down once more, and pressed five francs into our hostess’ dusky hand. She took | it with agraceful outershow of reluctance, ‘and signified by pantomine her undying | regret that we couldn't wait to taste their cous-cous. But we had seen it pounded, and = fled that anon are excused us. e pretty girl petped out at us archly from a doorway as we ieft, and the 2-year-old Kabyle-in the cowl and -hoofl stared after us-long with inquiring eyes till Don Quixote and the cake basket faded away forever from his hoxizon in the dis- tance.—Pall Mali Gazette. According to insurance statistics more fires are extinguished by the use of pails of water than by all other means. Bondage of the Russian Serf. There is plenty of evidence that the Russian serfs, supposed in England te have been so torpid, writhed fiercely under their bondage. Brigandage became the normal disease of Russia, for the brigands were bands of escaped serfs who some- times banded into armies and threatened or pillaged cities. Each pretender was dreaded because he offered protection to the serfs, and their attachment was the single reason for the rise of the ruffian Pugatscheff, a mere marauder, who gath- ered armies of 30,000 and shook the throne of the great Catherine. Moreover, M. Rambaud brings out the fact that down te avery late period the serfage hampered the @ars, the people hating the system so fiercely that Russian statesmen informed the court that if an invader issued a de- cree of enfranchisement all patriotism would disappear. A population so embittered against its owners naturally looked to the central au- thority, as it had done when eppressed by less regular means. This feeling of reli- ance on the central power manifested all through Russian history might not of it- self have built the autocracy, but that the house of Rurik, always self willed and fierce, felt that only in perfect per sonal power—power as of deity—could they find protection against the nobles and de- pendent princes who from age to ago threatened even their lives. It was_ne- cessary, if they were to reign at all, to reign fiercely, to allow of no resistance, to destroy whole families leagued against the throne. Czars and people therefore played ®ito each other’s hands, until at last Peter the Little could say with truth that in Russia no one was important except the man whom the czar addressed, and he only so long as the ezar addressed him.— London Spectator. An Advertiser of Chewing Gum, The foremost belle and beauty of a large tobacco factory on the east side has quit the rolling of cigarettes, removed the stain of tobacco from her fingers, and is on exhibition in a Bowery dime museum. If she were heiress to a million her loveli- ness would be lauded beyond that of any girl in Swelldom. She is a blonde, perfect in shapeliness and beautiful in face. What is she doing in the museum? She is chewing gum. One of the manufac- turers and heavy advertisers of gum has contracted with the manager of the show for her appearance. She sits on a raised platform along with an assortment of freaks. Sho wears arich evening dress of white satin. Mer hair is dressed in the latest style, and altogether she has an air of delicate high breeding. For full twelve hours a day she is on duty. Her jaws seem tireless, and with a few intermis- sions for rest she chews away at a cud of gum, paying no particular heed to the jo- cose spectators, making no answers to their remarks, and deriving apparent sat- isfaction from the admiration which she feels that she excites. Besides, there is the pay in cash, the amount of which no- body outside the deal knows. Behind her are emblazoned the announcements that sho chews a certain make of zum oniy, and boxes of it are piled arondd her. A boy sells the gum to whoever chooses to buy, but the main idea is to make the vis- itors to themuseum go out and talk about the odd sight, and thus create a new de- pzand for the article.—New York Sun. The New Hudson River Bridge. A Dill was recently introduced in the United States senate to authorize the construction of abridee near New York city across the Hudson river, ‘The bridge is to consist of a single spav, 140 feet in the clear above the level of ordinary high water. No pier is to be crecte:l between the principal piers of the bridge. The bridge is to be begun within & yeer and completed withia teu years efter the approval of tho bill, unless there is wi eveidable delay by reason of legal proceed- ings. Colonial Cabinet Officers.

The following are from the whimsical reper- tory of Dean Swift, who took pleasure ip oddities of this kind: Dic, heris ago at, an da quarto fineale, o .

A paragraph is going the rounds of the press, with what truth we know not, to the effect that a company was recently started in Philadelphia for the purpose of investi- gating the pyramids of Egypt by boring into ' them with diamond drills, thereby penetrat- ing into some of the mysteries which have so successfully bafjied the investigators of cen- ruries.
