Here's ( he medium to reach tbc people of this community. Railroad Talk Chas. H. Cornell of Valentine , Nebr. , was in Butte , Friday even ing en route home from New York City , where he has been in the in terest of the new railroad from Valentine to Butte. Mr. Cornell has been busy at work with the project for the past eighteen months and has a scheme which he feels sure will in time win. His faith in the enterprise has been demonstrated by the expenditure of several thousand dollars which he has invested in surveys , etc. The closing in of finances the past year has made the handling of bonds , of all de scriptions , a very tedious under taking , but Mr. Cornell understood the situation and kept moving along and is more confident than ever that his pet scheme will be realized. Thos. Lard , M. N. Morrison and D. E. Morrison , of Norden , Nebr. , E. E. Morey of Valentine , and Dave Briggs , of Naper , met Mr. Cornell in Butte to talk over the situation. R. R. Kinkaid , a civil engineer of Omaha , arrived in Butte Satur day evening and is busy at the county clerk's office looking up titles to the land through which the survey has been made. If the road is built it will mean much to the counties through * which itis built. To help the enterprise along should be the watch word. Butte Gazette. Read This !

Two of them were talking of the fun they had that night. They declared the slide was never slicker or the chance to play leap frog never greater , and that the water was simply grand Come in. on - > - Waking the Sleepers. In a diary kept in 1010 it is asserted that "Allen Brydges has been chose to j -wake the sleepers in meeting and. being - ' ing much proud of his place , must ! needs have a fox taile fixed to the end of a long staffe , wherewith he may brush the faces of them tbat , will have naps in time of discourse. " This en ergetic individual was likewise armed with "a sharpe thorue" for the benefit of those who "be most sounde. " There is a record cf the use of this imple ment upon Mr. Tomkins. who was sleeping comfortably iu the corner of his pew when Allen "thrust his staff behind Dame Ballard to give him a grievous prick upon the hand , where upon Mr. Tomkins did spring much above the floor and with terrible force did strike his head against the wall and also to the great wonder of all 'prophanelie' exclaim in a loud voice. 'Buss the woodchuck ! ' he dreaming , as it seemed , that a woodchuck had seized him and bit his hand. " Packed at Home.

It is difficult to combine the attri butes of the beau and the business man. and the famous Lord Alvanley did not attempt the task. Largely as the result of that philosophy which led him to cavil at a friend's weakness in "muddling away his fortune in pay ing tradesmen's bills. " he one day found hinisolf in financial difficulties and asked Charles Greville. the author of the "Journals , " to put his affairs in order. The two men Mr. Lewis Melville describes the incident in "Some Eccentrics and a Woman" spent a day over accounts , and Greville found that the task he had undertaken would not be so difficult as he had been given to understand. His relief was not long lived , however , for on the fol lowing morning he received a note from Alvanlpy saying he had quite for gotten a debt of 50,000. Her Early Resolutions. This story was told by an English man who lived a century ago. He was dining out in London and sat by a lady whom he di'd not know. Their conver sation turned upon early resolutions and how very seldom they were kept , and the lady said : "Well , when 1 was a girl I made three resolutions first. 1 determined that f would never marry a soldier ; second , that 1 would never marry an Irishman , and , third , that J would not bo long engaged. And all those three resolutions I broke. Whom do you think I did marry ? The Duke of Wellington ! ne was a soltlier and an Irishman , and I was engaged to him for twelve years. " This was Lady Kntherine Pakenhain. It was an un happy marriage , and the couple mostly lived apart. Between Them. "Yes , " said Mrs. Catcbein. "those are my daughters over there ou the sofa. They have half a million between them. " It was not until they were married to those daughters that the young mon who overhird the remark found out that Mrs. Catchein referred to the rich old gentleman who sat on the sofa between the girls. Mrs. Catchein could not tell a lie. but she knew how to speak the truth to the best advan tage. Suited to the Occasion. Nurse Girl Oh. ma'am , what shall I do ? The twins have fallen down the well.
