He states that he expects the Northern Pacific railroad to be opened from St. Paul to Portland by next August, At present all that intervenes to prevent a through road is a gap about 300 miles in length, and by the time the Bczeman and Mullan tunnels are finlshed the gap will have been filled. It was barely possible that heavy weather or gome unforeseen ac- cidert would delay matters, but he was satisfied that at least by next fall some 1,916 miles of road would permit New York passengers to land in Portland, Or., and in Seattle, on Puget Sound, W. T, without a braak in the line, excopting to croes the Columblia river at Kalama. He also thought it posai- ble that next year would see through railroad counection between this city and Portland. Work {s being done on the line running north from Redding, Cal., and on that resching south from Roseburg, Or, But to fill the intervening gap would necessitate some very heavy work, Several tun- nels were to be constructed and the difficulties incldent to heavy grades bad to be overcome. When completed the connection between the from this end under control of the Central Pacific, would meet that of the Vil lard system at or a little south of the state line, Mr., Muir said that provision would be made during the coming summer for cxcurston to Alaska and its places of interests, The principal one would start in June for Alaska, These trips would be made as frequently as cir- cumstances permited from this city, Portland, and the Sound ports. Fares from hare would bhe $125, and every- thing farnished, while I’rum Portland they would bs 95. The excursion fram here would last tweniy- five days. Other excursions up to the Columbia river, and to unfrejuented points on the Sound, ete., huvu also been pro- jected. v The Diamond I)y;a for famlly use have no eqaal All popular col- ors easily dyed, fact and beautifal, 10 cents a packaga for any oolor, The Book Agent Beats the Bandit Evansville Argus, Brown, Jones and Robinson, three of as good iellows as ever melted the heart of a country trader to the merry music of the pllaut chin, sat one even- ing last week in the smoking compart- ment of & chair car on the Evansville & Terra Haute Western rallroad. With them was a tall, thin, dyspeptic man with eandy halr, dressed in a rusty euit of black. Natare had en- dowed him with long legs, and his tailor with short pants, His coat col- lar was rich enough in accumulated wreane to keep a soap factory going for a month, His mouth was of braes, and his cheek us hard as last year's cider. He was a book agent. Already had he gobbled up the drummer for a “*Life of Ohrist” and a ‘“Pocket En- cyclopedia” of 215 numbers, when suddevly a real Josse James like bandit opered the door and stood, pis- tol in hand, before the qnartette Brown's soul sank into the heels of his boote. Beads of perapiration, big as snowballe, stood on Jones' classic brow, while his hat stood two solid inches from the crown of his head. Robinson murmured the first verse of *Ever of Thee I'm Fondly Dream- ing” as though he wes praying. But the book agent bounded from his seat with a glad smile and a “How do, stranger? Doalighted to see you, D) let mo show my superb History of Boone County, a perfect bonanzi of domestic peace and happinoess to ever: hcuseholder who is furtunate uuung{ to possess one, Three hundred pages of olegant lotter press, printed on toned paper and embolliched with fine steel angravivgs and an official map of the state.

Jones rolled his sleeves up and asked where the villian wan gone to. Brown fished from under thospittuon a roll of bills and hoped that they didn't think he'd besnscared.
