M0HTAHA HEWS. lie ta Carter, a five-year old daughter of J. W. Carter, was drowned in Prickly Pear creek last week. Twenty carloads of young cattle arrived in Billings yesterday for the Willard Cattle Company, whose range is north of the Musselshell. The ubiquitous u soap man," who has been swindling fools in Montana towns for a year past, has established his "fake" in Bozeman streets. The Bozeman Courier will not have the Associated Press dispatches just now. It does not feel disposed to pay the price required—$05 per week. The "oldest inhabitant" of Bozeman says that the rain-fall in that locality dur ing the present month has been greater than in any year during his experience. Some thirty men have left Benton for the Judith to drive a band of 4,000 cattle to the Northwest Territory. They were purchased recently from the Judith Cattle Company. The railroad bridges over the east and west Gallatin are in danger of being s wept away by the high water washing out the piling. The same fears are entertained with regard to the Townsend bridge. A ten-year old daughter of A. J. Smith, of Bozeman, died very suddenly last week. It is supposed that she died from the effect of poisonous weeds eaten in a meal of greens which she had gathered and pre pared. J. J. Ilill, the St. Paul railroad king, has scripted the land on each side of the river at the falls of the Missouri. It is surmised that he intends to utilize the matchless water power for manufacturing purposes. Among t ie tourists now in the Nation: I Park are J. Mnliin, of the Watertown Times, New York; Lieut. S.C, Mills, 12th Infantry, U. S. A.: Dr. G. L. Gates, of Ninona, Wis., and John and Henry Castle, of Minneapolis. A Minneapolis tenderfoot used his re volved freely but harmlessly in Bozeman a day or two ago and paid $50 for the privilege. He said he thought there would be no trouble about a small thing of that kind in Montana. The Miles City Daily Press celebrated its first anniversary yesterday. The paper has passed through a few of the vicissi tudes incident to the infancy of a news paper, but seems in prosperous condition now. We wish it continued success. Ira D. Sankey, the noted evangelistic singer spent Sunday in Bozeman on his way from New York to the Pacific coast. The Methodist congregation wanted him to give them some music Sunday evening but he hurriedly took the train and passed out of their reach. The Villard Mining Company, operating at Emigrant Gulch, allows holders of one thousand or more shares of its capital stock who wish to work independent of the company to have sluice-beads of water at minimum rates per inch, and gravel claims of their own selection at low rental *ates. Near the Stalactite caves in the National Park, there is a poisonous gas tube very properly named Stygian cave, where birds drop dead in merely flyitig over its mouth. It is most beautiful to the eye. The crystalline pendants are of a deep emerald. But the sulphurous ghses are inimical to life. Small animals taking shelter there in perish immediately. One of Dr. Gate's party went down into it and without any very painful sensation became faint with a rushing as of water in his ears, indicating the first stages of asphyxia.—Chronicle. j I ' Nights of Enchantment. Another good sized audience greeted Prof. Lewis last night and if round upon round of applause is any criterion to go by his efforts to please were appreciated. The performance is far ahead of any " of similar nature ever presented in Mon tana. To-night the .profeasor gives his last entertainment, and without doubt the hall will be* filled to overflowing, as the admission has l)een reduced to 50 cents, without extra charge for reserved seats, which eau be secured at the postoffice. NEWS SITES. I -------- Alex. Wyatt, a S:VubeuviI}r, Ohio, j murderer, cheated the gallows by hanging I himself in his cell op the ovr of his pr* -» ' pee rive execution. In London, England, six person» charged with complicity in the recent dynamite explosion in that city are on trial charged with high treason. On the 11th iiist., Charles Pollock, of Vincennes, Indiana, shot and killed ids newly married wife and then killed hi:'!-* self. No cau;e is assigned. Last Monday Samuel C. Dawes, an at-, tomey of Terre Haute, Indiana, attempt« a to murder John O. Lamb, congressman from that district. The trouble arose out of a lawsuit in which they appeared ; s opposing attorneys. It is reported that Crook hits reeros« e J the boundary and is now in Arizona. He has with him 2 JO Indian prisoners, mostly old and decrepit males, squaws and chil dren. His command is in good condition and has suffered no loss. A Bt Paul telegram of the 1 Ith insf. says : "Governor Sandborn made a speech to-day before the Chamber of Commerce giving statistics of St. Paul, summarizing the prospects and predicting a great influx of tourists for the Northwest, and espe cially Yellowstone Park." Beloit, Wisconsin, was visited by a cy clone on Monday last. Three men were killed and property destroyed to a great amount. On the evening previous North Vernon, an Indiana town, suffered severely from the same cause. This cyclone de vastation is getting terribly common in the east. Already this season hundreds of lives have been lost and millions of dollars worth of property demolished by this de stroying agent. Peter Cooper. Peter Cooper was born in the r-itv of New York, Feb. 12,' 1791, and died there on the 5th of April, 1883. His family were distinguished for their un wavering devotion to the cause of American independence. His father was a Lieutenant in the patriot army, and his maternal grandfather sacrificed a large fortune in the cause of free dom. Up to his seventeenth year, Peter followed the various avocations of Ins father—hatter, brewer, brick-maker and again brewer—which lie carried on in Peekskill, Catskill, Brooklyn and .Newburg, N. 1 T . During his apprentice ship to the coach-making business, which lasted four years, fron his 17th to his 21st year. lie in vented a mortising machine, which v, r a of much pecuniary benefit to his master, but none to himself. Without capital he went to work making maehi es foi shearing cloth, for which he was paid SI.50 a day for three years. At the end of that time he had savèd enougl money to buy the right of the State o' New York for manufacturing the ma chines, and embarked in business on hi» own account. He was successful, am aided his father and, as he naively said. "In consequence of this my father nev er had the mortification of failing ii business. The same is true of my own affairs. So far as ever having failed ii business, I do not remember the week or month when every man who worked for me did not get his pay when it war due." The wool-shearing machin« business became valueless when tie war of 1812 commenced. In this cou - nection it is interesting to note that tin principle of these machines was pre cisely the same «as the one now r used s« largely iu reapers and mowing machines At the termination of the machiin business Mr. Cooper bought a twenty years' lease of tw o houses and six lot» of ground, where the "Bible House' now stands, opposite the Cooper Insti tute. He erected some wooden budd ings, and carried on the grocery busi ness for three years. Soon after he purchased a glue factory, between Thirty-first and Thirty-fourth street», which he carried on for twentv-mid years, and then removed the business to Brooklyn, where it is continued at the present time. In 1828 Mr. Cooper purchased a large lot of laud in and about th .-itv of Baltimore, Md., and established the Canton Iron Wo b. Here he built in 1830. after his own designs, a b. o .motive engine which woilld tun.» >. «* short and frequent curves-m the ü; ti moré and Ohio railroad. It saved : ftt road from bankruptcy and opei ; > ur a new r era in railroading. After su« « fully disposing of the Can on. v.o; Mr. Cooper erected a rolling and iv mill on Third avenue. New York. le sold these out, aud at Trent or ' f., erected what was at that time tV > I > r»r. rolling mill in this country for the n , «facture of railroad iron. Ii :. ,t:e. first iron beams wore rolled, no »«> much used in fire-proof buildings. T o experiment was made at an es pen»* of $75,000, and was attempted v Cooper Institute was being built,- n. >< ing the intention of the fomub tit make the bnilding completel: oroof. re*
