COUNTING CATTLE HORNS , "Result of the Year's Oattlo Business in Montana , Xlic Prlnoo of Herders The Itouuil- * U | > Inillnii Rcscrvntlons How Out tic nro ISulclicrccl on Them , The pnst year has boon one of unusual profit lo the cattlc-Jirowcrs of Montnnn territory , writes n correspondent of the Pitts'purg Comhiorcial Gazette from Fort KCOK' ' > 'J'lio wealth fromtliatvns added to tlicstnto from tlio year's business will amount tip in the millions. It is now the most inlporlant business. The territorial government is in the hands of herders , as nro tilso tlio minor county onions. Laws iirc > miilo : and unmade lo suit the cattle- growers , Among thu recent nets of tlic cowboy Jcpisliituro at Helena was the passage of a bill appointing a board of livo-stook owners , Hon. (5rnnville Stu art , the man who is president , of this commission , has a Iiistorv. Mr. Stuart is one of liio most earnest men in tlio b'usi- ness , and lias probably done more than ally other individual to chock .TIIItiVINO AND MAKAUDIN'CI Tn Northern Montana. Ills inlluonco with tin ; Indian * is strong , hh views re garding the beit molliods of handling them nro highly reflected , and his recent articles upon tlio .subject deserve special attention. In urging that thu Indians bO disarmed and utsinountctl ho has their Interests at heart as well as tlic interest of the whites. \Vcro wo to invade tlio pnvato life of Granvillu Stuart , tlio Miyslory of his great friendship for the Indians and his thorough knowledge regarding their requirements would bo explained. Ilo settled in Montana in the early day. Others being lacking lie took to' himself an Indian wife. Many of his friends af terwards severed similar connections. Frequent temptations did not lead him to set his helpmeet adrift , however , for she had been true to him in lite frontier times when nioro congenial companions wore unavailable , antfnuw she .shares his pros perity. His homo at Fort Maginnis is the most comfortable in Northern Montana , and throughout tlio territory it would bo dillietill lo find a bettor or more complete private library than lhat of which no is tlio possessor. Ilo is a well-educated , fcchofarly gentleman , who keeps thor oughly posU'd upon the questions of Iho day , and ouo who not only has books , bill aho knows Uio enjoyment of their peru sal. WOKKIXCJ TIIC So inui'li has been written during the jwst few yours upon "round-ups , " "rop ing , " "brawling" ami minor tlotails of range lito that our Eastern Jrionds must ho reasonably \vell infurniud upon the btibjcot. Fortliat reason J shall onl.y al- llulo casually to the extcnsivencss of this system. In receiving , say , ono thousand lioad of "pilgrim" cattle from the States ( of value not less than § ' . ' 5,000) ) , branding tli3in at the stock yards with an X on the left hip , for instance , and turning them loose upon the range , the owner either nndor.stands tlio business or has an un swerving trust in 1'rovidcnce. A nortion of his herd may bo seen occasionally dur ing the season by him elf or his cow boys , but ether portions may dritt away lifty ol * a hundred miles , sometimes more , " . " liven tlion before the next "round-up. it may bo impossible to find them all. The ranges arc divided into "districts , " and each district is vorkcd by a separate eompaily of obW-bbyy , numbering any- * > vhoro from twenty to M.\tv ( moro occa sionally ) , according to the importance ( of the district. All who have range cattle within the limits of that district arc represented , either personally or other. WISO , ill TIII : nouNu-ur VAKTV , every member of which exercises his ability for the mutual advantage of his neighbor as well as for himself. The dis trict may bo two hundred miles long and lifty to seventy-live miles wide , and the cowboys move from six to ten miles each evening , gather the cattle from the hills surrounding the camp , the next morning divide the stock into Imuchos , each bear ing the brand of a diilercnt outfit , brand the calves with the marks borne by the mothers tho.y follow , and in cases whore the ownership of the calves cannot bo de termined , they , in this territory , receive the brand ot the outfit that holds the range upon which they are found. Now , in tlio district whore those "X. " cattle live the representatives of tl.at brand will see , as far as possible , to the holding and brand ing of the stock belonging to their outfit Then tlio cattle that are disposed of will bo thrown into herds , according to the locality of their ranges , and driven to ward their regular grazing grounds. Those that belong in the vicinity of the camp will bo left there , and the "round up" party moves on. THE UIIF : : "ROUND-UP. " The above has special reference to the spring round-up , which takes from sixty to ninety days. In addition to the fall "round-up , " the beeves are "cut out" separated from the other stock and driven by members of their respective outfits to tlio points of shipment. It is at tlieso shipping points that the value pf the stock inspector is seen. Ho exam- iuos the brands of every animal shipped from his point , and if some of tlioro "X" cattlo'nro being shipped with the beeves of some other party ho notes the fact , reports to the secretary of the stock commission the wnolo lot goes lo mar ket , and in duo cour.to the owner of the "X" cattle receives Iho proceeds of his "htray.s" on the basis of the price at which tho. main body of the shipment is sold. The nuiubw of nnimals thuufound is largo. "Strays" that belong in Mon tana liavo frenui'iitly been shipped from points on tlio union Paollio in Wyom ing , and vice versa , on iho Nortlieru Pa- dills. It is not considered surprising for cattle to drift JOO to 150 miles from their customary range , Thus are range cattle looked alter , and though it may take years for the "X" outlit. or any ntlicr , to MJeuro all their Mock , they are moro than llki-ly to do so eventually , oxceptlng wliero the "critters" are stolen , killed by wild animals , or dlo on the nmgo. The inspectors tire thoroughly familiar with the brands of tlio northwest , watch ohuely for stolen stock , do much towa'.d bringing offenders lo justice , and nni stationed at the principal Mode-handling points , The detectives are equally in strumental in furthering the success of this til-cut .system. About live thous.iudl DiriT.lir.NT llIt.VKDS. Have already been recorded in the oflico of the territorial treasurer at llcloiia. Even the Indians have their brand * , and , with the multiplicity of devices that aroused used , under the acts of IbGJ , to distin guish Mock , it is"no easy matter to keep thrill all in mind. In the I'llbrt ofid Montana ot dangerous wild animals bounties wuro paid during 1681 on moro than 5,000 wolves , 1,500 coyotes , COO bears anil 100 mountain lions. During lbS5 the bounties were still greater. The grand schema of breeding in Texas , fattening in Montana nnd market ing in Chicago almost bijeumo a picture ot the past , The loading cattle-owners' , whoso intoro-i.s nro seattorcd from Texas to the liritKh possessions , may niako - ' - the- trail Gomo long-d'-ifcs up - uoxtsoason , but there are many who believe that a plant of over I.QOO.OOO head of oattlo is enough for all general purposes in a Territory that has bet ween 40,000,000 and 50,000,000 acioi available for little else than gracing , aslJo from iho SJO.OOO.OOO acres tltnt are locked up in Indian and military reservations , the ludhiu reser vations being large enough to give 1,000 acres to each boy , girl , squrtw nnd Jnick of Iho red inen of Montann. Lalo in Iho fall t was at Fort Ulobrnra , Neb. , on business , and tllcro had a fine opportunity to study the Indian mode of eallle growing on the Rosebud agency. Spoiled Tail's old bands pf Unite Slonx are in reservation there. They own thous ands of cattle nnd are thriving. They number in all 8,200 souls , and it lakes 275 beef calllo lo do them ten days. INDIAN uurciiKiis. The sight of the issue of this bcof to the Indians was one of Iho most exciting scenes I have over witnessed. When 1 arrived at the calllo eorrnl 500 Indian warriors , armed with Winchester rifles , nnd the best revolvers Wore there to kill Hie beef. Slcer nftor steer Wns let out df the pen , and thrco warriors ran them over Iho prairie , killing them as they would buffalo. Ono old copper-skinned rascal &lood by tlio chute , nnd us Iho gale would be raised lo lot out tlio atihnnls , ho would hit him on the root of tlio tail with n stone Jiaimnor lo niako him run. The poor brnlo would roar with pain nnd .then the gate would be raised and he would tlasb out across the prairie with a half dozen young Indians after him. Then the sport would boirin. First ono young warrior would shoot a horn on' , then another would break a leg , nnd so on. The poor animal would bo tortured to death by slow degrees , his death being put on * so long as possible so tlio sport would last longer. And this Was the government of the United States' method pf issuing buef to its Indians , encourag ing them lo bo barbarous and cruel , making a gala-day of its moat issue , nnd giving tlio young warriors iv ehanuo to learn to shoot well and rldo well , so that they can kill our soldiers more readily and kill citizens bettor if they should go lo war. I saw young Indian boys tlioro torturing cattle poor dumb brutes lo dcalh , who should have been in school learning lo read and write. ' It struck mo as horrible , and f could not but think that it was time somebody gave the gov ernment a few lessons in liumniilty , civi lization and economy. It takes $10.000 worth of moat every ton days lo feed the o lazy rod rascals and furnish them poqr dumb brutes on which to practice their cruelties and barbarities. It made mo sick and ashamed to think the gov ernment I represented would permit such things lo bo done in its name. SCANDALIZING THE SEX. Have n Natural Inclination Towards Pnntaloons. St. Louis Critic : It was in a lancy cslablNlirncnl. "You have never seen a pair of ladies' panlaloons ? " asked the clerk. 'Miovorl" replied tlio scribe. "Then prepare yourself for tlio sight , " and lifting the cover oil' the box the man modisto took out a dark drab woolen- cloth garment , which ho unfolded and held out at arm's length for inspection. At first sight the article looked like two canvassed hams with a Siamese twin con : noction in the upper region , but on closer inspection it proved to bo a pair of soft woolen cloth trousers , baggy nbove the Knee and tight- tilling from the knee to the ankle , the last few inches of the gar ment being-made of an elastic material. "This is ono of the latest departures in female attire , " said the modiste. "It's an overgarment ; in fact a regular pair of trousers , which ladies of advanced ideas on dress have adopted in place of the heavy and cumbersome skirts ordinarily worn in winter. It is worn over tlic or dinary llanncl undergarment and gener ally over the stockings as _ well. At least that is the intention , as it sots bolter that way and is altogether more comfortable , while , should a gust of wind raise the skirts and reveal the garment , a casual observcr.would j-ecai-d tbu pantaloon legs as stockings. "What is the usual outfit of a lady who patronizes pantaloons ? " was asked. "Well , 1ft mo sco by the way , yon must recollect that this is essentially a cold weather coitumc. The usual outfit is llannel under clothes , pantaloons , ono light shirt , corset , a corset cover of warm material , made like a jacket , with arms and dress. Some , of course , supplement this with small hoops or bustle , but quite a number are now discarding tlio latter articles and dross , to all practical intents exactly like a man. " "How do the ladies take lo panta loons ? " "They think they're 'just splendid' . Yon see ladies have a natural inclination toward pantaloons , and now they each have nn opportunity to wear them. 1 shouldn't be at all surprised if the slylo becomes a craze. " Klcctrioljninjis on Private Carriages. The success of the incandescent olqc- trie lamp for private carriages in Paris , as a substitute for candles and oil lamps , is pronounced complete. Not onjy thu regular nido-jighls are included fin this plan , but the interior of the vehicle is illuminated by a lamp sulliciently pow erful to rend by _ , and in some instances n similar lamp is placed for novelty on the head of the horse. The lamps are connected by wires with small accumu lators placed under Iho driver's scat. They arc small in size , being only about eight inches square and four inches high , each of such accumujators being able to supply a lamp of livc-candlo power for thu space of soinosix hours. During the day they are removed and charged wilh electricity from a dynamo machine or otherwise , and at night they arc ready for use. Short Out.s.

JUSTICES 'THE FAR WEST. . .i " > Jimmy Orate ? 06ta to Be Judge and Mart - t tics a. Couple. A Humor Thfct Ilo Wore Socks Con- ' / ol * Court DiniCHltlcf of Introducing a IforelRu Corpse na ' ' ' .Testimony. " V "I iMr. Back in tltp early day * , when the ship of civilization 'was endeavoring to push its prow up tlio valley of the I'laltc ami brawny workmen were spiking down the rails of the Union Pacific railroads says Capt. Jack Crawford , the poet- Bcout , in the New York World the pro ceedings In some of tlio courts of justice were peculiar. The country was wild and hostile. Indians chased the buftalo over the ground where prosperous towns and villiagcs now stand. Lawyers were about as scarce as they nro In the promised laud , and justice , not being provided with the traditional scales , performed some remarkable guesswork. At that time I was in the Indian sorvicq nun for a time was stationed tit Louo Tree , in Iho beautiful valley of the Plutto. The town consisted of n half doion hastily con structed houses , the majority built of sods. There Were u few settlers near the town hardy pioneers who had taken lip government laud nnd who lived in con stant danger of attack from Satan's earthly corps , the Sioux. One of the eccentric characters of the town was Jimmy Crane , a tiino-bealcn frontiersman , uneducated , unpolished and , as a traveling missionary once said , ungodly. His lito had boon spent west of the auburn waters of the Missouri , and ho know as little of the ways of civiliza tion as an Apache Indian knows of the modern plan of salvation. Ho was a dead shot with a rillo , nn ardent lover of whisky and an expert at draw poker , but aside Irom these lie had no religious ac complishments worth speaking ol. Bill Bennett , the justice of the peace in and for that precinct , had a misunder standing one night with Jerry Mtmson over the very important point of who played low in a game of sovon-iip , and after the funeral it became necessary lo elect a man to succeed him. With that spirit of recklessness which characterizes Iho frontiersman , and as a rich joke , the boys nominated Jimmy , mid , to carry out the joke , elected him. The high honor so' unexpectedly thritsi upon tlio old man broke him all up , but he at once rose lo the dignity of tlio position and began to comb his hair daily. There were vague rumors Hitting about the set tlement that ho had taken to wearing socks. These slanderous rumors , how ever , he indignantly denied , and even went so far /is/to / make threats of heavy lines ; for contempt of court if they were persisted in. , o His knowledge of law ami of Ihri duties of his position was limited ; in-fuctyho didn't know Uio dif ference between a writ of replevin and an act of congress , and couldn't distin guish a puacoi warrant irom the ten couiniandinbiibif but bo assumed the re- sponsibilitjil fearlessly , and smiled be nignly wlidi the boys addressed him as "Judge.

Jimmy was in a quandary. He had never seen the mar riage ceremony performed , and , telling the candidates .to bo seated , ho jumped oil a horse and galloped to a ranch a half niilo distant to consult the only law book in the county , a small work entitled "Every Man his Own Lawyer. " He searched its pages clo-oly , but could find nothing beanng.upon the subject , and in despair he galloped luck to Clancy's saloon and consulted the boys. Ono of them , a recent arrival from the states , explained to tlic old man how he should conduct the ceremony. Ilo listened at- tentivcly , and when tiio tenderfoot had colieluded his explanation said : "Say , young feller , you j ist hop over thaian' splice 'cm , an' I'll give you $5 fur the job. " "But that wouldn't be legal , Uncle Jimmy. I am not an ollicer , and have no authority to perform a marriage cor- mony. " "D n Iho authority ! You jist bulge ahead an1 marry 'cm , an' this court ' 11 approve the pereccdiugs and nobody's going tor kick. They're cussed fools ittr goin' to all this trouble o' gittin * a cere mony in this country , anyhow , an'you kin marry 'em good enough fur all prac tical purposes. Just hop over thatan' cut loose , an' I'll make it a twenty. " The young man llatly refused , and Jim my determined to worry through Iho em- harassing allair as ho best could. Ho started for his ollico , and thu crowd fol lowed lo sco the fun. Bidding the couple lo stand before him , ho said ; "Dearlv beloved fellow-citizens , these young folks now appear before you lo in dulge in the holiness o' malormony no- eordin'tqseriptur1 an" tlio laws' ' o'this court If any ot you knows any calico why they shouldn't make the play , you want to squeal right out at this stage o1 the game , or corral ycr jaws on the sub ject lurovormoro. " No objection was heard , and the Jus- lice continued : "Hoi1 ii ] ) vor right hau's. " The couple blusliingly obeyed. "Do you , and oacli of you , solcmly sw'ar that you will marry each other in tlin pretence of this court ; that you will do thu square thing by each other ; thai you will give every body else tlio go-by , an'.cling to each other through life till death calls > ipon you lo cash in your earthly checks , an' that you \yill be to each other hiisbun'an' wife aceordin' to the law an' Ijc-proplipts an' the rules an1 rogulutiotViijiOtSiUiis honorable court in such cas-as-vnndowi' pervided , so help yu Uml.

As a mark of respect for tins great little man who controls the road. Airs. Bocokcr at once christened the child Jay Gould Hoecker. Mr. Gould was greatly pleased when ho heard of the eycnl , so much so Ih.-U he stint the baby his picture and a promise to make him an elevated railroad conductor when ho became of age. All this pleased MIN. Boecker , hut her husband became iuriotts when ho learned the chlld'h inline , lie said .lay Gould was a monopolist and an enemy of the people , and he insisted upon calling him Frede rick William , in honor of the Urown Prince of 1'russia. Frequently since then the couple have had trouble about the baby's name. Hoecker look > great a dislike to the child that ho hardly ever noticed it , { jiv ing all his attention to his three other children , the oldest of whom is a fourteen year old boy , Avho is a great admirer of JaGould. . The keen-eyed little fellow , Jay Gould , never paid any attention to the disputes about his name. Ilo preferred to sprawl about the lloor , and \\onlitgcl everything he laid his hands on into a corner. Like his grout namesake , the boy sleeps with ono eve open , and he IK uncertain in politics , whoa an admiring visitor neks liim if lie is a democrat ho bows his head , ns it to say yes.

The neighbor's boy was playing with a toy railroad train. As foon lib Jay Gould lioocUcr saw it heginbbed it up nnd re fused to part with it until his molhcr spanked him. Yesterday morning Mr. Hoeekor called Iho family together nnd ordered thorn not to call the baby Jay Gould any more. " Mrs. JJoccker said that Jay Gould was" the boy's name , and she defied him or any one to change it. "That child must be called Frederick William , " pursibled Jjocekcr , "or I'll dis own it. " Mrs. Hoeckor said she would tlic rather than chungo the name. Her husband got so mad that lie Mapped her face , feinashed the furniture and spanked tlin baby. Court-olliccr Simmons arrested Uoecker aim took him to Essex market court , where Justice Power committed him for llirco months. Ueloro going to a dungeon he kissed the baby , supposing that that would soften his wile's heart , but she was obdurate. Late in the afternoon she ailed and begged for his release.
