The school boy ran with his cap On, and the merchant had a brisk sale of whiter goods. The frosty air makes it well to be out. W. W. Tilotson's Burlesque Com pany of over 40 people will appear hear on Friday evening at the opera house, in the "Beautiful Evangeline," which has undergone so many marked improve ments this season. As now presented it is materially different from the crlginal production. The present company is made up of such eminent artists as Misses Annie Boyd, Alice Butler, Messrs. Geo. K. Fortescue, James L. Moffitt and others. As a whole the present company is said to be a much better one than has ever before been seen in the play here. The music was composed expressly for "Evan geline," by Mr. Edward J. Bice, words by Mr. J. Cheever Goodwin. One of the most amusing features is that of the "Dancing Heifer." This unique charac terization has been the stepping stone to fame and fortune for many of the most famous comedians of the present day notably, Henry S. Dixey, Richard Golden, etc. During the evening Miss Boyd sings Fay Templeton's great song, "I like it, I do," and is usually encored until her stock of verses are exhaused. The beau tiful Amazon March led by Miss Ilindie Harrison is received nightly with tumul tous applause. Hose Must Co- Editok Hi;nAi.i: During the past summer a large majority of the people of this city have desired and by personal ef fort and newspaper articles endeavored to induce til's law-making powers of the city to ub tte tli it terrible nuisance, ho annoying to every person of tuste and re finement, to say nothing of the annoy ance and damage done to the poor man's garden, we mean the allowing of stock running at largo within the , city. The prcsurc was brought to bear so heavily that the council were compelled to pasu an ordinance to restrain stock from run ning at large within the city limits, hop ing and believing that it would be en forced, but the mayor appointed a man that done his duty faithfully and soon rid the city of stock. The opponents of the ordinance not willing to put them selves on record in favor of repeal, con cluded to break down the effect of the ordinance by refusing to support the pound master, and thereby compelling him to resign, and no man is willing to tike the position unless he is sustained as he should be by the mayor and coun cil, and to-day the streets are full of hogs, cattle, and horses. I would like to see an ordinance passed and enforced such as was passed and enforced some years ago when Pot longer was mayor and Dr. Geo. Black was in the council, it wa;; called the "Selt Shar pener" in which the marshal was author ized to sell hogs to the highest bidder, the buyer to take them as they run. It was said that Pottenger and Black got up the ordinance because they were too lazy to scratch where the fleas bit them. Iloweyer that may be, the town was soon rid of hogs, andj it is a note-worthy fact that the millions of fleas that went with them have never returned, but the h gs have. It is a shame and a disgrace that a city having seven or eight thousand in habitants will permit it to become a hog yard and slock pasture Gentlemen of the council, brace- ui; have some st vie about you; put away your sclfi-hness; put your stack in pen or pasture or sell them to some one that will do so. You compel! lot owners to put down sidewalks and keep them in repair and then a'low stock to run over them and break them down, and some person falls OV-T -t and breaks his arm and a peti fogging lawyer goes into court and makes the city pay a thousand or more damages of which the petifoggon pock eta one-half. Come gentlemen of the councll,in sewer ing and paving the streets don't forget tj abate one of the worst nuisances of this or auv other city. Sam Joxes.

A Valuable Invention Which I'roveota Iju-e Curtain from Taking Firts 'Lcjok out, that curtain will surely takofiro." A gas jet was burning in close proxim ity to a lace curtain in the rear end of a down town lace importing store. "I'm not worried about it," replied the merchant to a reporter who had called his attention to the circumstance. "You are not the first man that light has frightened." "Why don't you turn the lightout, then, or move the curtain?" "Because there is really no danger." "You are taking great chances." "You wouldn't think so if you knew what that curtain is made of. It is a new French invention that has been put on the American market recently and I am tl 10 agent. The lace- is dipjied in a solution which makes it incombustible. Exeriuient3 are now lacing made to de termine whether dyed goods can be so treated. At present only white woolen and cotton fabrica can bo treated in that way." "What is the preparation?" "I can't tell you exactly, but there are sulphate of ammonia, carlxmute of ammonia, boracic acid, borax and starch in it. The goods are dipiH.nl in this while it is boiling hot and become thoroughly impregnated with it. Then they are dried and ironed as ordinary starched fabrics. " "A great invention, truly." "Indeed it is. And if it can be used on all goods there is no telling bow many iiros may be avoided. If all curtains, carpets, bedclothes and garments were iucombustiblo many lives would Ihj saved." "Do you think it will ever bo per fected?" "I can't say; but I do know that paper can be treated that way, and if dyed goods can bo it will not be long before they are, for no money is being Hpared in making the experiments." New York Mail and Express. An Absurd Illrtl. Kiwi-kiwi is the creature's real name, but scientific men c;dl it apteryx, which is a Greek word meaning wingless, be cause, though a bird, it has no wings. It not only has no wings, but it has no tail not even so much as an apology for one. And, as if that were not enough, it has no feathers worthy of the name. Its quills are covered with soft down for alMiut one-third of their length, and then are fringed with hairlike webs out to the ends, which are sharply jointed. It is only as large ;is a common deanestic fowl, but it has much stronger and stouter legs and bigger feet. When it sleeps in the daytime for naturally it is odd enough to choose the wrong time for sleeping it rests its long bill on the ground, and so makes itseif look like a strange sort of three legged stool. Mo:it other birds use their licaks or their wings or their spurs to fight with, but it would be foolish to expect any such natural proceeding from the kiwi; and, in fact, its plan of fighting is to kick. It is very fond of earth worms, and one of its ways of procuring them is worthy of so odd a bird. It thumps the earth with its big feet and if there are any worms in the vicinity, up they come to discover what is the matter. It ia a cousin to the ostrich, and though its plumage has no such value for U3 as its large relative's has, it is very highly valued by the natives of New Zealand. The kiwi hps a very tough skin, which, when it is projierly dressed, makes a good leather. St. Nicholas. A Kig Bar of IiulHon. The second largest bar of bullion ever melted in the United States assay office in Helena was handled the other day by M.'.lter Meyendorf. It came from the Jay Gould mine, weighed about 2.500 ounces, was a little over 500 fine in gold and was worth about 27,000. The gas furnaces were not nearly large enough to handle it, and one of the great coke furnaces, now seldom used, was heated up. When it was thoroughly reduced to a liquid, molten mass, a set of grippers was at tached to the melting pot, and by the aid of chains and pulleys it was lifted out of the bed of burning coke and charcoal and dumped into a mold. When it had changed from a liquid into a solid but red hot bar it was immersed in water until it had sufficiently cooled to be han dled. The ojieration, which included several interesting features other than those detailed, was intently watched by a small party of visitors, who were much interested in seeing $27,000 changed from a solid to a liquid form and then to a solid again. The only larger bar ever handled in the office was one of about 3,300 ounces, but several have been melted of larger value. Since Jan. 1 the office has received about. 1,000 deposits, many more than for the corresponding lerjod of last year, and of considerably larger aggregate value. Helena Inde pendent. Tardy Legislation. At last the game butchers of the great west have stopped killing buffalo. The buffalo are all dead! The time has now arrived for the territories to enact strin gent laws against the killing of these an imals, and I am pleased to see that the Montana legislature has just rushed through a bill to that effect only ten years behind its time! Next year, when the last buffalo of the eighty head still alive in the Panhandle of Texas is hunted down and killed, it will be time for the Lone Star state to frame a bill for his protection; but its final passage can hardly be expected until 1897. While the territories are passing laws against the killing of buffalo, they ought also, by all moans, to make the killing of mastodons between Aug. 13 and Dec. 1, punishable by a fine or imprisonment. They should also pass laws against the shipping of mastodon carcasses out of their respective territorial limits. The Cosmopolitan. Vanished Like a Dream. A writer in The Nineteenth Century mentions the case of a man who, while addicted to the morphine habit, fell in love with a girl. With a view to marry ing her, he placed himself under medical treatment for the habit, but found when restored to health that his love had van ished so that he did not at all care for the girl. Whether he relapsed and then married his dream love in not stated. The prolMbitionisti have placed the following ticket in the field: STATE TICKET. For Justice of th" Supreme Court. e. s. a 15 no r.
