IMPORTANT TO INSURERS.
The safety of the assured depends as much upon the skill sad knewledge of
the AGENT as upon the soundness of the company. The ability properly
to write policies and make the edorsements so frequently called for, as
well as to give the advice needed and asked for by almost every
person assured, s not acquired in a few days or months, but reuires
the study sad experience of TEARS. It is well anown that most
of the delay and trouble attending the settlement of losses is the
result of the ignorance of AGENTS through whom the insurance
is efected, and their inability to reader eeded assistance
at the time of and after a ire.

A Practical Ides.
One of of our citien who takes a great
deal of interest il the fire protection
of our town, yesterday called our at
tention to the tact that on the 24th
inst,. the steam fire engine and a baed
ire enginue will be sold at Fort Keogh
to the highbet bidder, the smane having
been condemned. We all know that
the steamer is rather pasee, but it is
nevertheleas capable of good servioe,
or was at laet account., and if it can
be purchased at any reasonable sum It
would, without doubt, prove a paylng
investment. We of couree live to hope
of having at no distant day a thor.
ongbly equipped system of water
works with direct pressure, which
will, as far as the maino are extended,
do away with the necessity of fire en
gines, but experlenee teaches us that
we may have some destructiv fires
before that time arrives, and the pro.
tootlon afforded by the Fort Keogh
steamer would be conuiderable. At
present it wo.lld only be practlcable to
work it from the river as a source of
water supply, but as the majority of
our most costly buildings are located
within a distance that could be more
or les effectlvely reached by the
steamer worling at tile river throurh
a line of hose, it would seem to be a
wine scheme for the citizens to become
the owerr of it. A. no hosie goes with
the stAmuller, it would be necessary, if
It were purchased, to purchase a sup.
ply of hose, say five or six hundred
feet. The genltleiiia who brought the
matter before us1 suggests that the
young men of the town ourganize a fire
company and give ia public ball for the
purpose of raeling fuidsii to buy both
the ellglnes and a supll;l:f hlise, and
should we wbeo ,o, ineerloruted turn
the apparatus over to the city. With
such anll olject ' view, we are satiftled
that a sulficent num could be secured
to purchase both machines and the
necessary equipment of *hose, etc.
Mhould we eventually have a system
of water works the hose will be a neo
uary appliance, and would have to
be bought then if not now, and even
when water works are establilbed,
there will always be outlying pore
Ilon of the alty beyond the reach of
protection from the water system,
whlob gould be proteoted by the o.
gluam We know noblthing of the co
dition of the hand engine, but pre
sume it can ow put In working order,
and as for tht steamer, If It is as good as
it used to be it will save its oost at the
very first fire to whibobh It may be
put at work. The suggestions made
are, we think, eminently practical and
should have the attention and conuld
erstation of every merobant and prop
erty owner in town. As we are now
situated our handsome buildings and
large stocks of goods are almost help.
less before the ravages of fire. and the
continued losses of the insurance comr
ponies In the town have led them
more than once to seriously consider
the question of withdrawing all pro
tection from us. As It is those of us
who escape loss by fire, pay in a few
years the entire value of our property
In excessiye ire premlums which the
insurance companiles feel compelled to
exact in self-protection. Let us have
the ball, the fire company, and the
two engines, even if they be of no
more use than to fill palls for a bucket
brigade.

Lieut. J. M. T. Partello, while at
Helena was Interviewed by one of the
Independent's staff and among otter
things stated that he had been "un
justly and outrangeusly attacked by
certain articles that bad appeared in
the Miles City paper," (the YELLOW
STONE JOUtNAL) and his deision to
make no reply "believing it beneath
the dignity of a gentleman to under
take to defend himself from personal,
attacks, partially anonymous, that ap- I
peared in print." Mr. Partello also'
announces that the partioular articlei
which has brought such a storm about
his ears and caused hie widespread no
toriety was sent as a favor to the man
ager of the New York World without
money and without price, and was
hastily prepared and forwarded and
tho' somewhat pessimistic was sent
with no intent to injure tLe territory.
The Independent was so well satisfied
that a profuse apology was made and
publihed. We have no comment to
make, but Mr. Partello can learn the
name of the "anonymous" author of
the article that appeared in the Joua.;
NAL whenever he so desires.

ittnak une March iore stortuy than
another.
Marcht, 18I7 will be a very stormy
mouth, much the iame as the tirse
eighteen days of February, and from
very smiilar nauses. It will also be a
tornadlo mouth but no very areat
storm a expected. Location of turon
dues cannot now be ealculated, they
sae ltoo much the nature of earth
quake., Lut the most probable dates
tur their t.oturrence will be given.
On March 2nd Mercury crosses the
sun's equator and the storma wave is
due on this meridian on that day, and
will be a very heavy, destructive, sec
ond-class storm. On March Ist, and
before the time for this storm to reach
the Nlst meridian, or Mississippi valley,
both Venus and Mercury will pass
over the earth's equator, and this will
intensify the storm. These events are
liable to develop small tornadoes on
the let and 2nd, and although, as
staled, thee. tornadoes cannot be lo
cated, there is a probability that they
will occur in either Kansas, Iowa or
Minneouta. Owners of unsheltered
stCok in Colorado, Nebraska, western
Kansas. Indian Territory and north
ern Texas are liable to sustain heavy
loses from this storm from the let to
3rd, as the probabilities largely favor a
"bliusard" in the former two slates
and a "norther" in the others.
The second storm wave will be due
on the 91st meridian March 9th and
will be intensified by the earth's near
est approach to the sun's magnetic
pole on the 10th, ant by the moon
seeing over the earth's equator on
tihe allle day. If this storm is well
up to time it will etw over the laken on
the lth and o1th and this will cause
heavy gales on the unrtheastern At.
Inutl, amid thte Nt. Lawrence valley.
'lhe path ot 'hi. storm is calculated for
the northern states north of that of the
2nd.
The third st.rm wave will ht du,. on
this meridian on tbe Ilth and will L
at its best in the St. Lawrenie. valley
orou the North Atlantleabout the 16th.
The fourth storm wayv will be due
on this mveridilam on the lt and will be
a very extenulve strmt, spenditng its
greatest force in tile wattern or south
wetern t.ates. It will iroebatly
reach the Miasirlsippi river on the
night of the 17th or during the 18th
and Its center ia expected to crerw the
river between Burlington and Vicks
hurg. Very cold weather will I.llow
the stormll alld it will be lntensified by
mercury and tile earth passing their
equlno'tials on the 9th and tile cold
wave following the storn will be In
fluenoed by mercury passing between
the earth and the sun and by the
moon nearing tis apogee-tuthlet from
the earth.
The fifth storm wave will be due on
this meridian on the Kbth and will be
lantesified by the moon eroslong the
earth's equator on thab day. The
storm will be note foIr bth sold weatb
or followilng or aeermpauylas It on its
north lide. The strms wl beesme
dangerous on the 27th or 2Sth, and it
will then probably be on the southeast
Atlantlo coast, not far from Charles
ton, the shippiine interests may have
disastrous ales to contend with. The
cause of this lIst impetus to this storm
will be mercury, very near the earth,
passing over the earth, passing over
the earth's equator, and this
event may oause small tormea
does. independent of the reg.
ular storm waves. If tornadoes occur
in the western states from tbhis event,
the 28th or 29th will be the most prob
able dates, but if they occur in the
eastern states, the 26th or 27th are the
most probable dater.
The sixth and last storm of March,
1817, will be due on the Mississippi
river on the 31st, and will be one of
the heaviest of the month, running
farther north than the last two.
While the storms of Marcb will be
numerous and severe, no heavy rst
class storm, like the Sauk Rapids and
Kansas City storms of lat year Is ex*
pe.ted.-W. T. Foster in Burilngon

Chicago Telegram: John C. Rich
berg, the lawyer, has recently diseov
ered evidence that may prove of great
.inportance in the anarohbit trial. The
fat as thb y hrve been developed by
Mr. Riobbet are subetantlated by the
afidavits of citiena of Pullman and
Keosingtwu. Witeeees Thomleon
and Gilmer swore that they saw two
men in the alley prior to and simul
taneous with the explion, but the
afidavits obtained by Mr. Riobberg
would go to show that the men who
were in the alley were Carlo and Otto
Blank, alilas Anderle, deperate -bar
ceters and avowed soelallsts. The
Blank fled froa tbt city last June,
and it was only through the arrest of
Carl at Dresden, BSaony, an lnquiry
here ato hisbl reputation oty Mr. Rich
berg and the German consul, that his
connection with the Haymarket
tragedy was ascertained. Mr. Rich
berg has been pursunlog an nlovestiga

for (the purpose of dentfyinglo Carl
Blank, and on comparing the Fboto
graphs of the two brothers he found a
striking resemblance tItween them
and August i piec and Michael Sehwab,
strong enough to have any person not
well acquainted with them mistake
them for Splesw and Schwab In the

were undoubtedly at the Haymarket.
