SCITY NEWS AND GOSSIP,
Two Fisherman Who Escaped Being
Eaten by a Big' Black
Bear.
Constable Ol·5r's Experleno
With Some Horses He Had
Attaohed.
Allowed to Mile on li Lead After i.e
Entry Was Cameelled-The Cesar
d'Alene Excursion.
The people who saw Frank Lang at his
place of business yesterday could not have
told that he had had a very narrow escape
Sunday from being eaten up by a bear. He
and A. O. Smith, of East Helena, had gone
out to the Little Blackfoot on Sunday to
fish and meditate on the beauties of nature.
Along in the afternoon Lang got tired and
went up on the beneh land to lie down and
rest, leaving Smith still fishing.. By and
by, thinking that it would be well to leave
some fish in the stream for next year's
sport, Lang called his companion up to him.
They were hardly together before Lang
saw something ambling up the slope lead
ing to the bench land. He took it to be a
cow from its graceful movements. A few
minutes later the animal looked at Lang
and Lang looked at the animal. Then the
fisherman saw it was a bear, a black bear,
and a big black bear. It appeared to be
about four feet long, and as it opened its
mouth it showed a full set of teeth. After
sizing up his expected meal the animal
started toward the fisherman. By this
tiipe he had grown to five feet in length.
A hasty summary of the arms at hand
showed that the defense possessed but one
six-shooter, a very poor weapon against one
hunrgy bear. Lang, calling to Smith
to follow, started on a run. Glancing over
his shoulder he saw the bear, now fully
seven feet long, preparing to follow. Smith.
however, armed with a six-shooter, stood
his ground. Long had not gone many
yards when he heard Smith calling to him
to come back, as the bear was running
away. The animal evidently thought Long
was too fleet-footed for him, and having
lost the best part of his dinner, concluded
to go home. The fishermen returned to
town quite satisfied to dine of fish instead
of being food for bear.
A dispute over the possession of two
horses now at the fair grounds caused one
of the parties to the controversy to attach
the animals yesterday. The attachment
was placed in the hands of Constable
Cleary, who hired two saddle horses and
Bloody Knife to go for the attached prop
erty. They got the horses all right and
started back to the city, leading them.
Crossi.p the creek in the Broadwater addi
tion the captured horses broke loose and
went back so fast that it was thought use
less to follow them. Arriving in the city,
it was found that there was a third party to
the controversy, and after consultation the
matter was compromised. Constable
Cleary presented his bill for fees, amount
ing to $3.50. which was paid. He had to
pay $4 for the use of the two saddle horses.
He is now wondering where he will get the
50 cents deficit from.
Some time in 1879 John G. Barter took up
a desert land claim near White Sulphur
Springs, and deposited $400 to pay for the
same with Receiver Ballon, taking that
gentleman's individual receipt for the
money. No attention, however, was paid
to the filing in the land office. and it was
afterwards found that no accounting had
been made to the government of the money
received. As years rolled by the property
had enhanced in value on account of the
marsh of civilization. and Barter, who was
resting content with the idea of
possession, suddenly found two years
ago that his entry had, been can
celled. He started an `investigation
resulting in finding out that his entry had
not been recorded and that the money he
paid on it had not reached its proper source.
About a month ago he applied to Judge
Langhorne, who looked the matter up and
has just succeeded in getting a ruling al
lowing Sarter to reinstate his entry. His
proof of reclamation will now be received
and the ground patented to him. All he is
out is his $400 and his worry.
In lese than a week over 300 exoursionists
from the Cocer d'Alene country will be in
Helena. It is proposed to give them a re
ception that will be equal, at least, to the
one given the Helena people when they went
to visit the Idaho people. All accounts
agree that it would be a hard matter to ex
ceed that reception. The visitors will get
here on Friday night about eight o'olok.
They will be met by the reception commit
tee and marched up Main street to the
center of the city. There is a proposition
on foot to meet them on upper Main street
with a bonfire of immense proportions,
which will give them some idea of the
warmth of the welcome the Helena people
mean to give them. It is partionlarly re
quested that the buildings on Main street
be decorated, as were those in the Idaho
towns on the occasion of the excursion
there.

The route of the Great Northern was deA
ltely settled to-day, so far as it afbote this

through the town, which, in the estimation
of property owners, was a detriment. The
matter was properly presented, and the line
changed to skirt the city. The site for the

arrangement cause general satisfaction,
and the citiaens are jubilant. Grounds for

THE DEBT OF KANSAS.
Porter Gives Some Figures Which Are A
Supposed to Tell the Story.
WAkHINOTON, Sept. 11.-The opnsns office b
has issued a bulletin which gives the mort- w
gage indebtedness of the state of Kansas
by counties. The total and assessed valua
tion of real and personal property in 1890, m
not including the value of railroad pro
perty. which is placed at $57,866,233, was w
$2.0,593,711. The estimated true value is w
between eight and nine hundred milllions.
It is found that Kansas has a mortgage rt
debt of $235,485,108, which does not iu- b,
clude state and railroad land, and a con
tract debt of $7,661,718. This debt is 27 1
per cent of the estimated true value of all
taxed real estate. The average amount of cc
debt per mortgaged acre iaslsced at $6.665.
Of the total mortgage debt $167,145,039 is gi
upon acres and $68,340,069 upon lots.
34 per cent of the total debt in force against 0
acres is on real estate in the western half
of the state, where it is said values are low a
and where settlement was made but a few a
years ago. It is r reposed to prepare a map
showing the exact localities in the state of rc
the debt. Superintendent Porter says bh
the largest debt exists in sections where
there is the greatest prosperity and where
there has been an advancement in improve- re
ments. The counties carrying the heaviest
mortgage debt are: Sed wick, $16,583,053; w
Wyandotte, $12,629,936; Shawnee, $11,98',- d
090; Cowley, $7,527,41.8; Reno, $7,429,589;
Sumner, $5,566,042, and McPherson, $5,050,- a

ELECTRICITY AND MINING. r,
Appliances Shown at Montreal of Interest
to Moutsaians. at
MONTREAL, Sept. 11.-Great interest has to
been manifested here in the new Edison tl
electric mining appliance exhibited in the in
electrical exposition. The most striking of au
these is the electric percussion drill, which fo
will bore at the rate of three iqches per tli
minute in the hardest granite. It requires he
but little power to operate, and can be da
worked any distance from the dynamo to a gj
distance of three miles. The drill is very lit
simple, having no moving parts except the (i
plunger and nothing that will be affected hi
by moisture. This device, it is said by ex- hi
ports, will completely revolutionize mining M
work. to
The next in importance is the diamond th
prospecting cave drill, designed for locating ag
mineral deposits. It will bore 150 feet into te
the earth, bringing out a specimen of the be
mineral for the I uripone of determining its to
value. Some have likened this drill to the n
mythical "divining rod." which was sup
posed to indicate the location of minerals, be
The Edison drill certainly resembles such At
an invalnuble instrument. Aside from these a
are exhibited electric coal drills, electric an
hoists, electric fans and electric pumps, l,
showing that Edison has turned his atten- a
tion in earnest to mining work, and many j5
are expecting marvelous results from this in
branch of electricity in the near future. ot
ROSSA AND HIS PASSPORT.
The Editor of United Irishmen Wanted a
Special Guarantee.
NEW YORK, Sent. 11.-O'Donovan Rossa
publishes in his newspaper, United Irish
men, this week, some correspondence he
had with the state department relative to a
passport he wanted, guaranteeing him free
dom from arrest in Ireland, and which was
refused him. In answer to Rossa's first
letter, Assistant Secretary Wharton, of the
state department, sent a passport in the
usual form to Rossa, enclosed in a letter,
in which he said: "The department cannot
furnish you with a passport in another
form, and cannot give you a guarantee
a~ainst arrest in foreign countries on crim
inal charges."
Rossa wrote back that he understood
there was a treaty between United States
and Great Britain which stipulated an
American citizen could not be held in
prison in Gicat Britain for any political
words or acts of his in this country, and
he wanted to know whether such protection
was afforded an American citizen or not.
He received the following reply from the
assistant secretary: "I have to state that
there is no arrangement of any kind in
force between the United States and Great
Britain on the subject to which your letter
relates."

re Any Advantage.
HBonoxmr, N. J., Sept. 11.-Sporting men
n say that no prize fight in the country since
e the great battle between Dempsey and Fita
i simmons attracted such univeal interest
f as the light-weight championship match
f between MoAulitfe and Austin Gibbons at
1. the Granite Association club rooms to
night. It was stopped by the police in the
sixth round, and the referee, Jere Dunn,
awarded the fight to MeAuliffe amid much
Ii excitement. A great crowd was pres
e ent at the battle. Before the fight
e McAuliffe was the favorite , at
odds of 100 to 80 and 100 to 70, but the bets
e were in small amounts. When the men
e Weighed in MoAuliffe tipped the beam at
just the limit, 185 pounds, while Gibbons
weighed 130k. Gibbons was seconded by
his brother Jim and Charley Norton. Mo
e Auliffe's squires were Jimmy Carroll, the
middle-weight, and Con MoAnliffe. Gib
bons was warmly received by the crowd
when he came out, but it was nothing to
the storm of applause that greeted Mo.
Auliffe later. After some fussing over the
men Jimmy Carroll protested to the referee
that Gibbons had a bandage on his left
wrist. It was only a linen rag, but Carroll
wanted it off.
"If you show me anything in Queensbury
a rules that forbids me wearing it," said Gib
bons, "I'll take it off; otherwise I'll keep it
on."
Carroll had to retire without having ao
t complished his purpose.
Time was called at 1:30. From the be
a ginning McAuliffe forced matters. He went
over to Gibbons' corner and smashed away
there. Gibbons countered a couple of times,
and when the round was over things were
about even.
MoAuliffe had the best of the second
round. He got in a couple of his noted
straight arm right-handers, and out Gib
bons badly under the left eye. Gibbons re
turned a fine right-hander, and Jack
retreated.
When the third round opened Gibbons
was looking all right again, but one more
dash at his cheek reopened the cut and the
blood flowed freely. He was very game,
and went at MoAnliffe with a rushb. Here
Mc. showed his shifty tactics to great ad
vantage, jumping away from Gibbons' I
rushes with the nimbleness of a oat, and
then coming back Viciously. There were
some good blows exchanged.
There were several clinches in the fourth,
and it seemed as though Jack was as willing
to rest as Gibbons. When he broke away
though, he renewed his attacks without any
sign of weakness. His two hands were fly
ing on Gibbons' body fast, but the latter
succeeded in dodging two of Jack's leads
for his head. Gibbons also planted a rat
tling right hander on Jack's cheek. Jack
had much the best of the round, however.
In the fifth McAuliffe had his man fairly
dazed. He delivered two right-handers on
Gibbons' jaw, and the recipient tottered a
little. Mo thought he had him then, but
Gibbons was not done yet. As Maoame at
I him over in his own corner, Gibbons let go
his right in a swinging blow and caught
Me full on the jaw. MoAnliffe fell back
two steps, and for a moment it looked as
though he was going to fall, but heman
1 aged to recover. He had apparently in
tended to finish Gibbons about that time,
but the little obstruction noted caused him
to change his programme. The round
ended with sparring.
When time for the sixth was called Gibe
bons came up surprisingly fresh. Mo
Auliffe immediately smashed his left cheek
again, opening the wound, and ther: .aes
another stream of blood. Gibbons was niot,
however, badly winded. He made a crack
at MeAuliffe's head, but missed, and then
Jack went at him once more. A clinch fol
lowed, and the men were pounding each I
other at close quarters when Police Cap- 1
tain Hayes made his way through the'ropes
and declared the fight must stop. There
was great confusion and efforts were made
to patch up a peace with the authorities,
but it was of no use. Then the audience
expected to hear the referee say he would
have to make it a draw, but he did not.
He shouted loudly: "McAuliff has won."
Gibbons was very mad. He shouted out: D
"This decision is given against me because d
I have a little blood on my face. It's an
outragel I'm not defeated. I could go on 1
fighting this way for two hours, and I'm
ready to do it."
Later in the evening Gibbons sought out
Referee Dunn and protested. Dunn said
he could not change his decision, that it
had to go, and that settled it.
