The Blithe Spring Time Brings Good Cheer to the Cow Man, Who a Month Bac• Would Have Taken Less than Fifty Cents on the Dollar. The Dutch Dances and Other Dancing Topics Versus the Lenten Season. TM r•AGo U OUTLOOK. A D.d Wtn•r ad a Pemksag spreas. As reports from the different rangp localities come in, the situation is found to be very muooh better tban was anticipated at any time sineo the frst of February, and owners who a month ago were prepared to kelieve that the major portion of their herds had sucoumbed to the unperalled as- verity of the winter, are now in a much happier frame of mind and in- clined to regard their losses as ioon- aiderable, considerlng the length and nrgor of the winter eason, and the oondition of the range last fall. Had there been no snow or cold weather, there would still be a more than ordi- nary lose in range eattle, owing to the scareity of feed and the over crowding of the ranges. The long contnlued drouth of lasint summer reduced the feed on many range to a minimum, especially where a feverish baste to get rieb had Inuuoed owners to turn loose more cattle than the locality could support at its best, and while there wae some compensation in the fact that olsog to the drouth, cattle were forced to remaun near water courses and kept from raging on the winter feeding grounds, the depth o- snow that prevailed during the last two months of winter, made winter feed so inaocessible as to be practically useless for the time being, but with their natural food locked up under crusted snow, the "rustlers" quickly turned their attention to sage bruhb, whichb by a wisein provision of nature was unusually well laden with seed last year, and presumably more nu- tritious than it ordinarily il. At all events it was a beap better than nothing, and no doubt prolonged life in many an animal that would otherwise have yielded up hib claim on the future. The avidity with which sage brush was eaten is evident by the fact that all over the range are stumps as thick as one's wrist, from wblchb all above has been devoured. To the timely relief af- forded by the despised usge brush may be attributed the faot that a very satis- factory percentage of rage attle have succeeded in pulling tbrough the worst winter ever experienced on the Mon- tana ranges. But there is no cloud so dark cut has sunshine behind it, and the long and tfateful winter has boen succeeded by a spring that could not thus far, have boon more favorable to rang interests, if gotten up to order. The unusually heavy fall of snow has goue uff o gradually, that muchb of the moisture resulting from it has pen_- trated the ground, which being but superficially frozen, was in excellent condition to receive it. Followlng the disappearance of the snow came winds which rapidly dried up the surplus moistJre, giving the worn and feeble cattledry spots to lie down on, easy travel while feeding, and materially reducing the chances of miring while week. These conditious with the add- ed advantage of being able to fill up ou old grass before new grass comes, is daily adding to the strength and vital- ity of range cattle, and If continued fora short time longer asud the indi. cations are favorable) will soon place them beyond danger of set backs by storms and unseasonable weather that way come later. The prospect for grass was never better siooe tb, country was opened to mnge cattle. The ground whibeh was thorougbly saturated by late fl. mins, frose but ligbty before It was sov ered by a November snow, whibh was added to In the sucesedlng tbree months, keeplng it protected from the low temperature that was experioneed later In the winter, and left it porous and capable of absorbing an unusual amount of moisture from melting mnow this sprinS the swellin3 roots are already putting forth their toeder shoots of green, sad a reistOklng of the tire range with an abundant growth of gras ewem to be assured. Even a dry spring cannot Interfere with the present hvorable outlook, and should we have our rles at the proper tUme, the whole Ice of the country will respond with an excess of fertility not experienoed in many year.. But in contemplating this fI- vorable prospect for the future, the ex- perience of the past sbould not be for- gotten by oattl. men. This experience has demonstrated, at severe cost, that there is a limit to the feeding capael, tif the range, and that when two heed are turned out on a tract that can sup- port only one, they cannot be profta- bly run. Many owners in the past two years have over-taxed the capacity of their own sanges and their neighb. bors' as well, and having paid the penalty in exceaive losses, it is pre- sumed that they have learned the lee- son and will not again attempt to crowd nature, but there may be those who see in the excellent gramss pros- peel a reason for running in an excess of cattle to feed it off. It would seem that this is a question for the associa- tion to take up and settle on the broad principle of the "most good to the larg. est number," and in so dolng protest thoe who first established themselves in the country and acquired all the rihbts that it as possible to acquire under present oonditions. FOI CATrOLIC REtADEKRI A pable Coas•tory at RoLe Ma•e t4 Os. eissa of Grand Display by Careudals, .tdlrys and Other DIlsltas•s. BOYS, March 17.-A puulic oonast- tory was held today in the Sala Redla. It beganu at 10:2 a. in., and cooaol ed at nooL. Tbe prooeslon was headed by tbhe uonastorial advocates with at. Lendants, arrayed in crimson robes and ermine caps. They were followed by the cross-bearer, oumerlers, prelates blibops, archbishops and cardinals; Lben came the Pope, who was borne on the sedia gestaton. flanked with Labelli or white peacock feather fans. He was accompanied on eaob side by noble•larde, to blue, the 8wis guard omoer., and purple and crimson robed attendants. When the Pope decend- ed from the edia be ascended the throne, which had been covered with purple cloth and cloth of gold for the Leaten season. The canopy over the throne was backed by the tapestry of Perino del Vaga, deplclting faith, hope and charity At the b•.. of toe throob were two moons couobaut, earlong red banners.' with cres keys. The cardinals oo- cupied beaches arranged in a parlleil ogram in froot of the Pope. The con- sietorlal advocate advanced to the throne and read the l..sance for the beatllcation orpersons under consid- eration. This concluded, sixteen car- oinals left the ball to bring from the Sistine chapel the eight new cardli nal--Archbiebop Gonzales, of Toledo; Mgr. Alois Masla, ez-uuneia at Lie. non; Archbishop Tscbheresu, of Que- bec; Archbtihop ibtbous, of Balti- more; Archbishop Bernadon, of Sens; Arcbbisbop Place, of Rennes; Arch- bishop Hangeuleux, of Reims; Arch- bishop OGordaul, of Ferrara. Each new cardinal was accompanled by two others. Cardinal Taechereau was ac- companied by Cardinals Melchero and Maseol. They proceeded, and bowing thrice, klsed the Pope's foot and band, received the Pope's double em- brace, and then retired. Then again they advanced to tbe Pope to receive the bhat which was brought nto on a silver salver. Each cardlnal knelt as be came before the Pope, and the hood of the robe was pieced over his bead by an attendant. Then the Pope, taking the large red hat, placed it on the kneeling cardinal resting his hands on it while he delivered a blessing. The ardinals then umade obeisance to the Pope, concluding with a double embrace or a kies of peace. The Pope received Cardlonal Gibbons with mark- ed affection. Cardinal Tascbereau was calm, though he showed signs of great emotion. The cardinals then gave the klss ofpeace to their colleagues of the sacred college. When Cardinal Gibbons came to Cardlonal Mosella, each oflered the other hearty onograt- ula'ions. Cardinal Mosells was once a professor no the Jesulte college at Woodeook., and is an old friend of Cardinal Gibbons. The Pope tten departed, foll.wed by his escort. Crowds lined the Bala lucal throlugb whbleb the procession passed. Finding plaso In the Belas R• were diplo- mats to the Holy See and their fami- lie., who occupied a large gallery. There were also present Bihbops Ire- land. Keane and Wattreonn, Moosig- nor O'Brien, who was Ldlegate to Car- dinal Teacherean, Monsignor Dillon of Australia. Lieutenant Williams of the United States army, in uniform, the rectors and studeuta of the American and Irish propaganda, rector of Eng. lish and Scotch colleges and others. OLAWNDIE IN EILiNA.

As reports from the different rangplocalities come in, the situation isfound to be very muooh better tbanwas anticipated at any time sineo thefrst of February, and owners who amonth ago were prepared to kelievethat the major portion of their herdshad sucoumbed to the unperalled as-verity of the winter, are now in amuch happier frame of mind and in-clined to regard their losses as ioon-aiderable, considerlng the length andnrgor of the winter eason, and theoondition of the range last fall. Hadthere been no snow or cold weather,there would still be a more than ordi-nary lose in range eattle, owing to thescareity of feed and the over crowdingof the ranges. The long contnlueddrouth of lasint summer reduced thefeed on many range to a minimum,especially where a feverish baste toget rieb had Inuuoed owners to turnloose more cattle than the localitycould support at its best, and whilethere wae some compensation in thefact that olsog to the drouth, cattlewere forced to remaun near watercourses and kept from raging on thewinter feeding grounds, the depth o-snow that prevailed during the lasttwo months of winter, made winterfeed so inaocessible as to be practicallyuseless for the time being, but withtheir natural food locked up undercrusted snow, the "rustlers" quicklyturned their attention to sage bruhb,whichb by a wisein provision of naturewas unusually well laden with seedlast year, and presumably more nu-tritious than it ordinarily il. Atall events it was a beapbetter than nothing, and no doubtprolonged life in many an animalthat would otherwise have yielded uphib claim on the future. The aviditywith which sage brush was eaten isevident by the fact that all over therange are stumps as thick as one'swrist, from wblchb all above has beendevoured. To the timely relief af-forded by the despised usge brush maybe attributed the faot that a very satis-factory percentage of rage attle havesucceeded in pulling tbrough the worstwinter ever experienced on the Mon-tana ranges. But there is no cloud sodark cut has sunshine behind it, andthe long and tfateful winter has boensucceeded by a spring that could notthus far, have boon more favorable torang interests, if gotten up to order.The unusually heavy fall of snow hasgoue uff o gradually, that muchb of themoisture resulting from it has pen_-trated the ground, which being butsuperficially frozen, was in excellentcondition to receive it. Followlng thedisappearance of the snow came windswhich rapidly dried up the surplusmoistJre, giving the worn and feeblecattledry spots to lie down on, easytravel while feeding, and materiallyreducing the chances of miring whileweek. These conditious with the add-ed advantage of being able to fill upou old grass before new grass comes, isdaily adding to the strength and vital-ity of range cattle, and If continuedfora short time longer asud the indi.cations are favorable) will soon placethem beyond danger of set backs bystorms and unseasonable weather that

way come later.The prospect for grass was never

country will respond with an excess offertility not experienoed in manyyear.. But in contemplating this fI-vorable prospect for the future, the ex-perience of the past sbould not be for-gotten by oattl. men. This experiencehas demonstrated, at severe cost, thatthere is a limit to the feeding capael,

tif the range, and that when two heedare turned out on a tract that can sup-port only one, they cannot be profta-bly run. Many owners in the pasttwo years have over-taxed the capacityof their own sanges and their neighb.bors' as well, and having paid thepenalty in exceaive losses, it is pre-sumed that they have learned the lee-son and will not again attempt tocrowd nature, but there may be thosewho see in the excellent gramss pros-peel a reason for running in an excessof cattle to feed it off. It would seemthat this is a question for the associa-tion to take up and settle on the broadprinciple of the "most good to the larg.est number," and in so dolng protestthoe who first established themselvesin the country and acquired all therihbts that it as possible to acquireunder present oonditions.
