All were satisfied and pleased with the progress which had been made and manj went home with relics, such as ments of the corner stone or scraps of stone which had been unearthed in the excavations.

Journalism in Benton is not a particularly pleasant occupation. The two editors of the different papers huve been calling each other liars, scoundrels, other complimentary nuniM, and recently they indulged in a genuine old-fashioned fist-cuff fight, and would prcbably have been fighting yet, had not some one picked them both up and shook their toe-nails off. Capt. of the steamer Undine, livered full cargo of freight at Washburn laBt Monday. A portion of the cargo consisted of 1,253 bushels of No.

A report gained currency in the remote parts of the city yesterday that there weie 200 cases of typhoid fever in the oity.

This is utterly false. Dr. Bentley stated to the TBIBUNE last night that there were not over three any, but tbat there were a few There are loose brick on the window sill in the third story of Central block, which are ble to fall and kill some one, and implicate the occupant of the room in a case of manslaughter. It is a very careless piece of business. Sunday afternoon a pentleman was seen to lean forward to look through the window, which necessitated his brushing against the brick, while several persons passed along the sidewalk directly neath him.

Among the new firms recently located in Bis marck is Geo. B. Carr, the hardware merchant located on the corner of Third and Meigs streets. Mr. Carr is a first-class mechanic, and has had an extensive experience in this line of business.

His stock comprises everything pertaining to the trade, and his business already exceeds his most sanguine expectations. Mr. Carr is a young and active man. and will undoubtedly build up a large and lncrative business. Van Houten Little, have purchased lot 16, block 16, Stnrgis addition upon which they will erect a machinery hall for the storage of all kinds of implements from a spade to a steam engine.

This firm will also construct a powder magazine this week, having been pointed general northwestern agents for the Dnpont powder mills, of Chicago. On the latter building they will nse the Bodine roofing which is thoroughly firo proof and will be the first of the kind in use in this section.

The proposed route will pass through what is known as the Judith of the finest and mcst productive valleys in there possibly tap the famous Barker mines be ore reaching Benton. Bentonites are very anxious to receive railroad coinmuiiications and wou'd doubtless contribute largely towards taining even a branch road.

Paul, is in the city for the purpose of consultation on the child of W. B. Bell, who is seriously ill. C. S.

Mrs. Davidson, who accompanied him on his trip, will arrive in a few days. THE BISMARCK WEEKLY TRIBUNE rHE cases, if caseB of a mild type of bilious fever. How anyone could be so utterly devoid of common sense or judgment as to make such a wild and utterly unfounded statement is beyond explanation. The people of Montana, acoording to our Montana exchanges, are making extensive and elaborate arrangements for the reception of the Villard prrty, and will undoubtedly give that party a grand ovation npoa their arrival in Helena.

The people of the latter city are prising and energetic and when they determine to do anything in this way they have both the capital and pluck to make the affair a complete success. RAILWAY AGE. Its Dawning1 iu the Capital City, where Mr. Talbott Visits and is Visited. The Newspaper Man who Rides in His Private Car, the Finest in the World.

Description. The handsomest, most complete, costliest and altogether loveliest coach in the world was pulled into Bismarck last evening at the rear of the west bound passenger train. It is the property of Mr. E. H.

Talbott, editor of the Railway Age, a weekly illustrated journal, devoted, as the elegantly designed cover proclaims, to railway intelligence, construction, operation and agement. Mr. Talbott is accompanied by his wife and Miss Herrick, of Chicago, as well as a stenographer and type-writer, who transform his dictations into copy for the journal which he has so ably mianaged, arid which has brought him so favorably before the public. Gov. Ordway and Elijah Coffin conducted the party about the city in carriages, giving them a view of the capitol grounds, iron bridge and various improvements.

A TBIBONK reporter went into the car in the evening under the kind guidance of North cifie Agentf Davidson, just to see how the ternity was riding about the country. Mr. Talbott informed him that he had' just retnrned from a trip throagh the Canadian northwest, with which country the ladies especially were well pleased. Hanging about the paradisean palace on wheels, were specimens of wheat from the provinces, some of which measured over six feet in length. The cozy little group of sionists will proceed to the National Park, and after enjoying an extended visit in that famous wonderland will take a jaunt to the Pacific coast.

A number of delighted citizens visited the car, among whom was Mr. R. B. Thurston, a former acquaintance and friend of Mr. Talbott's ily.

Governor and Mrs. Ordway were the guestB of the party last evening, and after giving the visitors a brief and interesting history of the territory's prosperity partook of a repast in the culinary department of the car. The following description of the coach is taken from the Chicago Inter Oceau of the 27th inst: "It is the finest private car ever constructed, and could not be duplicated for $25,000. It is sixty-eight feet in length, including platforms, and is set on twelve forty-two inch paper wheels, which are the largest manufactured, and whose tires are steel, with a view to testing the relative virtues of European and American ufactures. One-half of the tires and axles were furnished by F.

Krupp. of Esson, Germany, and the other by the Midvale Steel company, of Philadelphia. The springs were made by A. French Co. and the French Spiral Spring company of Pittsburg, and are the finest ever produced.

The exterior finish is of a dark blue, with a small amount of ornamentations, which, by the way, is the prevailing tendency of the present time. On either entrance door is the name of the car in fac simile lettering of the journal whose name it in small enough to show that it is a private car. The railing around the stepB are of solid wrought steel, burnished, with ornamentations of solid bronze. At the popular entrance of the car, which is the rear, the divisions begin with the tion room, which is also fitted up for an office. This rooai is of the finest oak, with a finish that is wonderfully beautiful.

The designing is markably pretty, with handsome and original carvings. The leather-covered sofa, when opened up, iurnishes a double berth. The passage from the observati room to the parlor is finished in ash and trimmed with ranth. A private room, finished in the same manner, and containing a handsome doublefolding bed, representing a dressing case when closed, opens from this passage, and is a very pretty feature of the car. The ladies private toilet is connected with this room, and contains three large wardrobes and all other modern veniences.

The parlor, which will be used for sitting and dining rooms also, is sixteen feet long and is finished in solid mahogany, from original designs, showing a great deal of very fine wood carving. Four of the windows are six feet in length. At each end and side is a large beveled mirror, surrounded by or namented panels constructed of a variety of fine woods, both native and foreign, ia their nataral colors. At the further end of the parlor, on one side, is a private desk, and on the other a highly finished mahogany case enclosing ing models of the Westinghouse brakes. These are so arranged as to represent evary movement made by the engineer of the train in handling the brakes, and being connected with these an occupant of the car can stop the train instantly at pleasure.

Of course the carpets, extension table, upholstery, drrpery, are in keeping with the general surroundings. "Passing from the parlor the visitor is first attracted by the beautiful tripple silver-plated water-cooler, occupying a niche left for this ticular purpose, and standing on a base of the finest Tennessee marble. From this way across is had to the gentlemen's toilet, which is equipped with awash basin of see marble, silver-plated pump, large mirror and other conveniences, and the linen and wine lockers and heater. Next is the bntler's pautry. containing a large ber of small lockers for the silver and chinaware, supplies, etc.

The larger pieces of the silTer service belonging to the car are engraved with representatives of old locomotives and cars, which possess much of real historic interest. A convenient refrigerator, finished in hard wood, with double plate-glass doors, and having three compartments, occupies a portion, of the pantry, presenting, when filled, a most tempting ance. Passing on from the pantry, the kitchen is reached, occupying the extreme end the car, which is furnished with a modern cooking range, ornamented in nickel from original signs, all the necessary utensils belonging to a well-equipped kitchen, conveniences for ration of food, washing dishes, etc. This is one of the most complete features of the entire car, and will be appreciated by all good keepers. In short this car is composed or specimens of the finest material, workmanship, and ing thus far possible to be produced by the leading manufacturers of railway appliances in this countrv.

The intention of Mr. Talbott is to make this car serve the useful purpose of visiting railway men from other countries and to the press as well as to railway men at homo, to whom its "latch string will always hang out." Mr. Talbott will return in about three weeks, when he will endeavor to spend a day in the city. Hotel Arrivals. SHERIDAN.

NORTHWEST NOTES. The misguided people of White Sulphur Springs, M. want a brass band. It is claimed that the farmers of Montana are having the largest crops ever raised.

Much to Helena's disappointment President Arthur his decided not to visit that city this trip. The people of Helena had the pleasure of ing a little snow on the mountain side one day last week. The subscription books of the Helena and Jefferson county R. will be opened in Helena, September 17. Dr.

Monroe, of Bozeman, has been appointed surgeon of the North Pacific line between Glendive and Missoula. The Billings Herald regrets that several ing business houses of thet city have business cards with obscene pictures on the back. The name of Eugene Shelby will be handed down in history as the first passenger through by rail from Portland, to Helena, M. T. T.

C. Power has bonght a half interest in the ferry and the business of P. McCormick, at Junction, paying for both an aggregate of $21,000. Prof. White and party have just left Benton in an open boat in which they will float down to Bismarck.

They intend making a careful amination the rock formation on the way. Helena Independent joke: "Nearly every member of the party which went out to see the two ends of the North Pacific joined brought back the last last one they got hold of." The Helena Independent says: "The firat regular railroad car to pass over the spot where the North Pacific ends of track met was flat car No. 2,709 the first caboose to pass over was No. 189 and the first locomotive was No. 356." New Northwest: It is proposed as soon as the North Pacific is operated to l.iad ten cars with canned goods at Portland, Maine, mark them consoicuously so as to attract attention along the route, and send them through to Portl and Oregon.

Oregon ought to take that train, load it with canned salmon, and send it whirling back. Water Works. The Bismarck water company is now waiting for the locating engineer of the North Pacific road, who is now in Montana, and who will be here in a few days to locate the exact site of the reservoirs and pipes. Water pipes are now a scarce article, there being a tremendous demand, and its price is high. The company will go ahead with the enterprise, regardless of expense, and perfect the system with all possible tpeed.

SOUK newspaper writer has been figuring how long each president of this country has absented himself from the exesutive mansion during his term of office with the following result: "A careful collection of the facts in regard to the absence of presidents from the seat of ment during their respective terms of office, shows that Jefferson was the champion absentee. He scored 796 days in tight years. The elder Adams me next, 385 days in four years. Next mmp Monroe, 708 days in eight years, followed by Madison, 637 days in eight years John Quincy in four years Washington, 181 in eight years. The presidents who virtually took no vacations were thirty-seven days Pierce and Buchanan, fifty-seven days each and Lincoln, who can hardly be said to have left the capital during all those bloody four years.

None of them ever went into the ness as Arthur is doing, but it is to be bered that he came from a great city which is no place for summer sauntering, while all our other presidents came from the country, or small cities, mere villages as compared with New York. A president should have the same freedom of choice as to his play spell as any other man." LAST Saturday was what is known as "Peaoh Saturday" in New York city. In seasons when the crop is poor in New Jersey, but when peaches are abundant and the seas an fav rable "Peach Saturday" will be sure to happen once or twice. It is brought about entirely by natural causes and in this way: When the fruit is plentiful there comes a period intheseason when it ripens with greater than usual rapidity. At the close of the week the great object is to get rid of every peach as they do not keep over Sunday.

As many as 100,000 baskets of peaches will be shipped on Friday evening to New York, which is the only and be placed on sale early on Saturday morning. As all must be closed out before trade closes at night the price runs down as the day advances, and even the very poor can afford the luxury of a fruit feist on "Peach Saturday." ABOUT 45 per cent, ot the land of the United States, nearly 1,000,000,000 acres'in all, remains nusurveyed. Of this amount, there 369,000,000 acres in the Indian Territory. 80,000,000 in, Montana, 66,000.000 ytt Dakota, and 12,000,000 in Minnesota.
