GREAT FALLS is located at the Falls of the Missouri which furnish the greatest available water power on the Con
tinent. Is within 7 miles of the most extensive Coal and Iron district in the West, immeditely beyond which are
rich Silver and Copper districts. It lays tributary the best agricultural and grazing part of the Territory, and the
pineries of the Upper Missouri and tributaries. It has made more progress in the past 8 months in proportion to its size
than any other place in Montania, and is especially adapted by its natural resources and geographical position to become
the leading manufacturing center between Minneapolis and the Pacific.
The trip to Great Falls will amply repay tourists by the beauty of the scenery on the way, and they will find here
the most magnificent series of waterfalls in the world, while the surrounding country is rich in picturesque scenery.
To those wishingto improve property, lots will be sold at very reasonable prices. Fcr particulars address, H. O. CHOWEN, AGENT.

THE PROFFESSIIR'S EXPE.I ENC'E.
WRITTEN FOR THE TR1IBUNE.
Have any of my readers ever met
Professor Matchstick astride his cay
use jogging along some lonely road :
Professor is quite a scientist. but he
is no horseman.
Once upon a time, as the fables say,
I was stopping in a small village near
here, when it was my fortune to see
the object of this writing come ca
reering down the only street in the
place. His horse had evidently been
scared, and I think the Professor was
scared too. Clackity. clackity. click:
clickity clackity, clickity, clack so
went the horse. I never saw Profess
or's horse yet but what one shoo was
loose. Bumpity, bunmpity. bmlnpe,
bump went the rider, His long. lean
boby bobbing up and down in the
saddle in an interesting imanner.
That is, it was quite interesting to
him. Even his voice was in st'o'.i
sympathy with the proceedings.
Whoa! Wo! o-o-o-ohl Ho! o-o-weo!
Stop! Sto-o-o-op! Just as the last
syllable escaped. the horso belIi:
opposite Van Dusenberry's store
stumbled. and fell, thereby prrecipi
tating the unlucky rider vithi excep,
tional violence into the street. For a
moment he laid like a log, stanned
by the fall. Immediately a crowd
collected with land exclalllmatio)l of
pity and surprise, but not a soul
.offered a helping hand. Presently
the unfortunate victim of the accident
came to his senses and sat up, His
That was crushed down over his eyes
and his eyeglasses were twisted and
broken beyond recognition. Slowly
the Professor felt of each limb. Hav
ing satisfied himself that no bones
were broken he carefully arose to his
feet. Then the tongues began to
wag.
"Veil, py shimminy Provessor i
You vill vant un new hadt. I haf
some vine prand new silk und peever
hadts shust arrifed. You can haf
your choice for un tollar und un
haluf. Und Provessor you vant
some new bants. Mine bants are duer
genervine all vool ardicle. I vill giv 1
dem. bants to you for tree tollars nud
six bidts; but, for der love of Moses
don't dell dot pald headed Jew down
der streed." So said Mr. Levi.
"Professor, you must have some
German cologne for your bruises. I
keep a vine line of ze article manu
factured in Paris." And that was
the consolation of Monsieur Boileau
the druggest.
Meanwhile the poor Professor cover
ed with mud, and looking the very
picture of comic helplessness, was
doing his best to punch his battered
stove-pipe into something like its
original shape. Suddenly an un
pleasant thought arose; for, a deep
shadow crept over his face. He mut
tered some unintelligible words to
himself, at the same time feeling in
this p6cket and in that until, with a
groan of dismay be looked up, and
addressed the comqany after this
manner. "0! friends and fellow
citizens of this Great and Glorious
Republic, a-hem, while travelling
along the Barnham road upon my
faithfnl charger, with my thoughts
afar off in the inner world of con
ciousness, dwelling upon the abstruse
problem of the forms of the primeval
beings.belonging to the genus Homo;
and, just as I was passing the wide
domains of Squire Crabtree, which
are luxurient with majestic avenues
of stately oak and beech trees, and
where delicate and beautiful flowers
are in profusion; I was startled from
my abstraction by the appearance of
a huge monster in the form of an I
angry bull. I urged my patient
horse to nend his speed. The bull
gave chase. He caught up with us
and goaded my charger in the rear
until, wild with excitement and fran
tic with pain the noble animal shot
away far in advancee of his tormenter.
I lost all cuntrol of Lima, (you know
there are tim,'s when patience ceases
to be a virtue, and so imy heors set eo
ed to think) . and on we sped at break
neck speed and finull camne to the
present uncerenmonious halt. I have
now discovered a very serious los,;.
'Yesterday I found a rare and valun
able s-pec.imen, belonlging to that
great family, the Colcoptera.but of
what genus I cannot tell. I now find
'that the box containini the speciimen
has been lost out of my pocket during
this terrible ride. I a'---'

and a l. sad !, played alout his
