FRIDAY, MAY 9,1884. soon the big fish will absorb the smaller ones. Ella Wheeler the Wisconsin pole tes3, was, May-day, married in Mil waukee to one Mr. R. M. Wilcox, a Connecticut manufacturer of silver wear. It seems that Miss Wheeler has been a contributor to the St. Paul Dispatch, which paper closes a very pretty mention of the wedding, as follows: "Miss Wheeler is about thirty-three years of age, but has the youthful appear ance of a girl of 18. She has always lived with her parents at Windsor, Wis., near Madison. She has writ ten several volumes of poems, in cluding "Shells," "Maurine and other Poems," and "Poems of Pas sion," and has been a voluminous magazine writer." Gen. C. C. Howell of Belknap, Montana, an experienced, miner, and a man who has visited the Coeur d'Alene mining region, fa miliarizing himself with the pros pects there, was in St. Paul the oth er day and says that the mine3 are the most promising of any that have yet been opened, but that the rush was made there in the winter when there was no possible chance to do anything, and that experienced and interested miners are indnstriously starting desparaging stories, in or der to gain better footing* before sharp competition sets in. However, we think it a poor place for a man toco to at tbe present time.: There •wluiidreds of meii out of work there, mkI hungry eSW^t %»«*»«*$? T^- wwuw asgti: ^i_-V. *.v Reform Temporarily Defeated. The Morrison bill has been de feated in congress, and it may be presumed that Randall considers himself revenged for the defeat he sustained in the election of speaker and the organization of the house, even though he had to Withdraw from his party and join with the Republicans to do it. The vote stood 159 to 155. Thirty-nine Dem ocrats out of California, Connecti cut, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsyluania, Maryland, "Virginia, New Jersey, West "Virginia and Louisiana, (there being twelve members from Penn sylvania in the count including Ran dall, of course), voted with the Re publicans. Thus, the result of three weeks discussion of the tariff ques tion terminates, simply, in a dis graceful piece of jobbery between jealous Randall and the Republi cans. There was certainly no chance for the measure to become a law under the circumstances, but had it passed the house it would have shown to the country that the majority of that body were in favor of reform on the question, but it would, perhaps, have been an open advantage to the Democratic party in the coming election, besides the augmenting of public sentiment in behalf of the measure itself. We believe that this matter of tariff re form is an inevitable issue before the people and will carry in the end, and think further that the Repub lican party and the Randall-rump are the gentlemen who are making the blunder, and not the leading Democrats. The fight will be car ried into the Democratic convention which meets subsequent to the Re publican convention and will bo watched with exceeding interest, especially if Blaine is not put in nomination by the Republicans. Blaine, as president would, perhaps, heed the lessons now being taught and urge reform, but we do not think of any other Republican pos sessed of the integrity and force of character to take such a stand— against the money sharks of the east—if made president. Ilence, he is then the best possible man to put up,—and if he is not nominated and the Democrats put up a good man and work the tariff question judi ciously, they will get a tremendous ly large independent vote. In all honor be it said that Minnesota's acknowledged representatives, Messrs. Nelson, Strait, Wakefield and White voted for the bill, while Washburn, representing pine-land rings and other forms of monopoly and money interests, voted with his crowd—these gentlemen with the brass hats. The people must learn to take cars of their best interests now and not be led about like a lot of foolish sheep. Let every voter consider tint charity begins at home, and down this needless and absurd taxation. Just think of it, the consumers of the country are paying all the way from 30 to 50 per cent, extra for the necessities of life and for clothing, while the agri cultural class, the real producer, is forced to take whatever he can get for his goods as well as to pay these enormous rates. Under a different arrangement of affairs he would produce just as much and realise more from its return. Stray Brick. Orange Judd, editor of the American Agriculturist for some thirty years, but unconnected with its business management for a year or two past, has lately retired from its editorial department and located in the west. He desires to gather a complete "Postal Card Album" of his old readers and friends, and re quests them all to send him a postal giving him their presant location and address, naming also, when convenient, the years in which they were his subscribers. Mr. Judd's address is Chicago, Illinois. Fergus Journal: Michael Ander son, ex-sheriff and ex-member of the legislature from this county but now a boomer from Washington territory, called on us to day. He will return to Whatcomb, on Puget sound, in about six week, accom panied by Mrs. Anderson. What com is a thriving place on the sound with big prospects, and Mr. Ander son has some fine property some miles inland, where he has just had a postoftice established named "Ed munds"—tor the possible next pres ident. Alex Anderson is working at printing at Whatcom, and Ed. Lessick, the builder so well known to old settlers in Fergus, is there and has some good contracts. Fargo Republican: A gentleman met Captain George Egbert last Fri day, and taking a small silver watch charm from his pocket, asked if it belonged to him. The captain ex amined it, and when he saw the in scription on one side, "George Eg bert, City Marshal, Hastings, Minn.," a look of astonishment spread over his countenance, and he asked the gentleman where Caster's wife he got it from. The gentleman re plied that he had found it the eve ning before on Front street. The captain stated that the article had been taken from him over fourteen years ago in Hastings, which he has never seen since, and how it should happen to turn up in Fargo is one of these queer coincidents that can never be explained. is reported to have gftafc Zfiy, '^"x' said: "I expect to tie with Mm. Calhoun all winter. After the' bat tle of the Little Big Horn I went to New York and engaged in philan trophic work, in which I intended to devote my entire time. 1 I have felt the necessity for rest frequent ly. and was considering this winter whether I should take an ocean voy age or come west. I finally con cluded to join Mrs. Calhoun, and accompany her in her trips when she goes about to give her readings. I have no relatives of my own father, mother, brothers and sisters —and she is the dearest one on earth to me. She is very much like the general. Her ways, her laugh, are the same, and her quick tones are very much like his. Sometimes my heart almost stops beating when I hear her speak in another room— her voice is so much like that of the one who is gone.' For The Ladies. Few women know how to shed tears gracefully. When well man aged they are effective. Aside from adding to the mute.eloquence of the eyes, tears enhance a woman's beau ty and overpower the giants whom pugilists can only master with difficulty. They should be brief, not too wet, and by no means bit ter. They must rush to the eyelids, linger like dewdrops, and when they do fall the precipitation must be speedy. To be effective they must be premeditated. A whiff of the tearful onion, a fresh inhalation of pungent smelling salts, a few grains of pepper or a slight irritation of the outer corners of the eyes with a match or toothpick will suffice for a copious'flow, and if the lover, hus band or father can be cornered, the shower will have the desired effect. But avoid a frown or a scowl. Man ufacture a feeling of sadness, hold the breath to get up color, pout ju diciously, incline the head to one side, droop the body but not the shoulders, use a small soft-finish cambric handkerchief with both hands, taking care to rub the eye ball down and out. The object in rubbing out is to have the tears roll over the cheek. There is too much of the deer sentiment when they course down the innocent nose in piteous chase. A correspondent relites that he saw a lovely woman of thirty-five come out of a store. She was tall, lithe, graceful, with the face and bearing of an ideal duchess. Her costume was of the richest and least showy materials. Her whole aspect proved her profession of refined taste. She got into a carriage in which sat two children and their nurse—a coarse featured woman of middle age, wearing the prescribed cap and apron of her employment. "Take a good look at that estab lishment," said the writer's com panion "the young lady came to this country about twelve years ago. She was poor and friendless. She got employment at housework, and then was made a nurse maid. She soon made up her mind that she could make a living at making the kind of infant's clothes that her du ties familiarized her with. She be gan by getting work in a shop, but in a year had a flourishing business of her own. She married a man for love alone, but he also proved a good business partner, too. To gatherthey built up a big trade, and are now very wealthy. It was her own carriage that you saw her in. The strange fact about the establishment, however, was that the nurse was the mistress's first employer. Never educated or bright, Impoverishment has reduced her to the cap and apron her present mistress used to wear. Is the latter a shoddyite? Not a bit of it. She is a lady every way."

Tbe lady ranks among the first of emotional actresses upon the American stage and is always sup ported by a strong company. This* is the third company she has brought to Butte, and it is no dis paragement to the others to say it is the strongest one. last night was presented for the first time in Butte the four-act comedy-drama en titled "Solomon Isaacs," in which Miss Boyd appeared as Kate Med land, the greatly wronged but ever loving and devoted wife of an in sanely jealous husband. The play affords but a limited scope for a dis play of Miss Boyd's extraordinary powers as an emotional actress, the interest in it being happily divided with others, among whom Solomon Isaacs, Mr. Hatch, and the villain Matthew Thirnton, Frank Ellerslie, were central figures. Mr. Roberts, as Gilbert Medland, the husband of the unfortunate Kate, made a fine impression upon the audience as a careful, painstaking actor. Mr. Felton, as Sir Frederick Sidney, Air. Norris as Winford, the magistrate, Miss Wilder as Laura Sidney, and Miss Rainford as Adah, all acquit ted themselves creditably and showed the superior strength of the company. The orchestra, under the leadership of Mr. Clark, is an ex cellent one, and adds no little to the entertainment of the evening. The house was crowded, every seat be ing occupied, the audience appreci ative, and the applause frequent and prolonged. The company will appear at the opera house Tuesday and Wednes day evenings, 13th and 14th instant, in Solomen Isaacs and the great emotional drama, East Lynne. The editor of Frank Leslie's Sunday magazine begs to call attention to the exceedingly valu able and interesting articles in the June num ber, to b3 published oti May lOtli.

The article on ''The Apocrypha" was written at the request of several correspondents, and gives much information on a too late under stood matter.
