STRIKE OF SWITCHMEN.
Northern Pacific Employes at the
Helena Yards Quit Work-----
The Men Discharged and
Their places Filled.
About a dozen switchmen employed in
the Helena yards of the Northern Pacific
knocked off work on Tuesday last. A
number of them had been "celebrating"
over the election and were not in shape to
work when the evening of their great con
tent gave place to a sober and every day
morning. It is also alleged that they had
some trouble with the yard master, which
may have had something to do in shaping
their course. Another reason given is that
they demand the same wages paid for
similar work at Butte, which are said to be
higher than those paid here. At all events
the men quit work on Tuesday and refused
to return at the old wages. Mr. J. E.
Dawson, the resident agent at the depot,
and Yard Master Joyce have been doiDg
what yard duty they could unaided since
the men went ont, but the strike has con
siderably embarrassed the company
in the daily business of transferring freights
and switching cars. Superintendent Gil
bert sent in some men from the weBt yes
terday, but when they arrived and learned
the situation several refused to go to work.
Last night the conductor of a freight was
warned not to move his train, but the com
pany bad Sheriff Hathaway and Under
Sheriff Hard at the depot, and in the
presence of these officers the tiain was
started oat of the yard without opposition.
This morning a number of men went to
work as usual, and Agent Dawson says
there will be no farther trouble. It is said
all differences have been settled, and that
there will be no more interruption to busi
ness. Some of the striking employes have
been discharged and others have gone back
to work, the places of the former being
filled by the men brought in from Mis
soula. __
Stolen from the Jail.
The boys have good joke on City Marshal
Read. One of his last official acts was to
purchase yesterday fonr pairs of new
blankets for use in the jail. For safe keep
ing he placed them in the dark cell, or so
called "bridal chamber," of the city jail,
bnt he*forgot to lock the door, and in the
course of the afternoon a sneak thief
entered the building, possessed himself of
the blankets and departed as silently as he
came, without attracting any attention.
There is no clue to the thief and the
blankets have not yet been recovered. All
of which goes to show that even a Demo
cratic city marshal may be cangbt napping
and that, though a safe place of custody
for thieves within, a jail may sometimes be
at the mercy of thieves without.
The Mining Review.
After a suspension of nineteen months
the Montana Mining Review resumed publi
cation yesterday. The publishers are
Messrs. Williams, Thurber & Trowbridge,
all experienced printers and newspaper
men. The Review will be pub
lished every week at Helena and
will be strictly devoted to promoting min
ing interests and publishing news concern
ing the greatest industry of Montana.
There is an opening for a well conducted
paper of this kind in Montana and we wish
the Review success.
The Whole Vital Machinery
Depends for the fuel, which is the origin of its
propulsory force, upon the stomach. In that
hidden alembic the food undergoes the chemical
changes which transmute it into blood, from
which the system draws the material that reim
burses it for Its daily losses of tissue. These, of
course, are greatly augmented in disease. If the
stomach, therefore, is weakened and disordered,
the system is deprived of sustenance. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters can be relied upon to facilitate
and renew digestion when that function has
been interrupted by weakness of the stomach.
Biliousness, or a diversion of the bile from its
proper channel, which causes constipation, is
also remedied by It. Heartburn, wind on the
stomach, sick headache, fur upon the tongue,
and other symptoms of stomach and liver dis
order, it speedily removes. Malarial complaints
of every sort, kidney and bladder troubles, con
stipation, rheumatism and neuralgia yield when
it is used regularly and persistently.

FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED.
A Man Found Dead Near Pioneer with
a Rope Around His Neck.
Deer Lodge, April 5.—[Special to the
Herald.] —"Word has jnst been received
from Pioneer that the dead body of a man,
who is supposed to have been murdered,
was fonnd near that place yesterday. The
body has been identified as that of James
-Tones, who has been missing since March.
_ was fonnd about a mile and a half from
his cabin, lying on the ground with a rope
aronnd the neck, the other end of the rope
being tried to a tree. There were several
large gashes in the head and other braises
on the body. An inquest was to he held
to-night by a justice of the peace, when
fuller particulars will be available for pub
lication. ___ 1
SHE TOOK STRYCHNINE.
Attempt of an Indian Princess to End
Her Life on Account of III
Health.
Fort Assinaboine, April 6.—[Special to
the Herald.] The tribe of Little Poplar,
the Cree Indian Chief who took such a
prominent part in the Reil rebellion
through Canada in 1885, have been refugees
on this reservation for two years past. His
young daughter, who has been living with
a citizen here, took strychnine last evening
with suicidal intentions. Ill health is the
reason assigned for the rash act, and her
life hangs in the balance.
The Switchmen's Strike.
Matters seem quiet at the depot to-day.
The discharged employes have apparently
accepted the situation and do not seem
disposed to make any further trouble. On
the other hand the new men have gone to
work and business is going on as usual.
Notwithstanding this apparent serenity,
however, there is evidently some appre
hension of more disturbance. Officers of
the law were again summoned at noon to
day to go down to the depot. The com
pany say this is merely a precautionary
measure and they fear no trouble, yet we
understand it was at their solicitation
that the sheriff was called npon. No vio
lence has been resorted to and none at
tempted so far as we can learn, bnt there
is evidently a distrust of what the near
future may bring forth.
Wants Republican Settlers,
A cattle-growing friend of the Herald
writes as follows from his ranch on the
Marias river:
"The cattle which I shipped and drove
ont from Minnesota last summer have all
wintered as well as the old range cattle.
The ice went ont of the Marias river on
the last day of January, and the range is
in a fair condition. The Marias bounds
the Indian reservation on the south for 100
miles, and we hope to see this fine country
settled up with good Blaine Republicans.
It is the working men that make good
Republican states. Montana is as certain
to be Republican as Minnesota as soon as
the hard-working farmers commence to
settle in the territory."
Professional Caution.
Our attention is called to the following
resolution adopted by the American Medi
cal Association at their national meeting
in June, 1882. It seems seasonable to re
produce it in view of the exceptions taken
in medical circles to the recent kindly in
tended admonitions from the Rev. Mr.
Kelsey addressed to physicians, cautioning
against the careless use of poisonous drugs
and alcoholic drinks in professional prac
tice :
Resolved, That in view of the alarming
prevalence and ill effects of intemperance,
with which none are so familiar as mem
bers of the medical profession, and which
have called forth from the English physi
cians the voice of warning to the people of
Great Britain concerning the use of alco
holic beverages, we, the members of the
medical profession of the United Slates,
unite in the declaration that we believe
alcohol shonld be classed with other pow
erful drags, and that when prescribed
medicinally it shonld be done with con
scientious caution and a sense of great re
sponsibility.
Resolved, That we are of the opinion that
the use of alcoholic liquors as a beverage is
productive of a large amount of physical
and mental disease ; that it entails diseas
ed appetites and an enfeebled constitution
upon the offspring ; that it is the cause of
a large percentage of the crime and pan -
perism in our cities and country.
The above is the voice of no fanatic, but
the deliberate judgment of a conservative
and scientific medical convention, which
places alcohol in the list of dangerous
drags, in the use of which there should be
cantion and a sense of great responsibility.
Patriotism and Religion.
A little work by the Rev. Edwin J.
Stanley, of Stevensville, Mont., entitled
"Patriotism and Religion as Potent Factors
in onr Country's History and Destiny," has
jnst been received. It is a publication of
a Thanksgiving sermon delivered by the
anthor last fall at varions chnrches in
Western Montana. It is a neat little book,
bound in cloth, of about 90 pages. The
contents are interesting and show consider
able érudition as well as penetrating
powers of observation on the part of the
writer. Charles K. Wells is agent for the
work in Helena. Price, cloth bound, 50
cents ; paper, 25 cents. Copies may also
be procured from the anthor at Stevens
ville. _ ___
Pick-Ups for the People.
Cashier Knight (overbading silver coins
of the mintage of the fifties)—Those half
dollars bear the dates of Democratic years.
They look sort of ancient, hut the few of
them now seen, like the faces of old friends,
are pleasant to look npon.
Johnny Worth (whipping an ante-elec
tion number of the "organ" to pieces with
his cane)—I want no more political prog
nostications in mine. J'm looking for the
Republican who will divide his pocket
book and give a fellow a shqw to catch np.
Jim Halford (shading his eyes through a
pair of green goggles)—Give the Irish a
chance next fall? Why, didn't we give
Dougherty a chance in the First ward ?
Ha! ha! ha! '
Assignment of Judges.
At a meeting of the Supreme Court held
a few days ago Judge De Wolle was as
signed to the second district and Judge
Liddell to the third. This gives Jndge
DeWolfe the location he desired when his
appointment was made.
In another column of this issue will be
fonnd an entirely new and novel specimen
of attractive advertising. It is one of the
neatest ever placed in onr paper, and we
think onr readers will be well repaid for
examining the supposed display letters in
the advertisement of Prickly Ash Bitters.

DEATH OF FRANK CUTLER.
The Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. Dies
After a Brief Illness.
Death is making sad havoc in the ranks
of the Y. M. C. A. A few days ago Dr.
Eckles was taken off and to-day Frank
Cutler, secretary of the Helena Association,
passed from this world to a better. lie
ceased was taken sick a week ago last
Tuesday with a bad cold, which afterwards
developed into erysipelas and inflamma
tion of the brain. A consultation of phy
sicians was held yesterday and the patient
was pronounced beyond recovery. He had
the beet of medical attendance and careful
nursing, bnt his malady was incurable and
he died at 9:30 o'clock this moruing, sur
rounded by family and friends. The re
mains have been embalmed and will be
shipped East this evening for interment in
St. Paul, the former home of the deceased.
The family will accompany the relics to
their last resting place.
Frank Cutler was born in Washington
county, Minnesota, May 10th, 1857, and
wah consequently not quite 31 years
of age at the time of bis death. He
graduated from Carle'on College, Min
nesota, in 1882 and entered upon the prac
tice of law at Northfield in that State. He
pursued this profession until his conver
sion, when he gave np his whole life to the
cause of the Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation, and has been prominently identi
fied with its interests ever since. He
built the first Y. M. C. A. buildine in
Northfield and labored zealously in the
cause in other places. In Mav, 1882. he
married Miss Clara Louise Kelley, at Lam
beiton, Minn. He leaves a wife and
two children, a boy and a girl
aged two and four years respectively.
He came to Helena Sep*ember, 1887, and
has been secretary of the Y M. C. A. here
ever since. He resided on Benton avenue
with his family, his father in law, W. W.
Kelly, also living with him.
Mr. Cntler was a bright young man and
an earnest worker in the cause to which
he had devoted his life. His death will he
mourned by all connected with the Y. M.
C. A., as well as by a large circle of friends
here and in Minnesota.
Died on the Journey.
A St. Panl dispatch recently spoke of
the death of "Jefferson Davis of Montana."
The Herald knowing of no one of the
Dame in these parts, paragraphed the an
nouncement in a spirit of playfulness. An
esteemed correspondent calls onr attention
to the mistake, and we desire to disclaim
a purpose to wound intentionally. It ap
pears Mr. Davis was a resident of Black
foot, a yonng man of 27 or 28 years, who,
in care of his mother and sister, was
returning from Georgia, where he had
journeyed in hopes of mending his health,
which had suffered from pulmonary trou
ble. His death occurred on the 21st nit,
at Albert Lea, about 100 miles east of St
Paul. He had been a resident of Black
foot it appears, for many years, having
come there when a lad with his parents.
He was married some years aeo, and leaves
a sorrowful wife and two little children.
The New Northwest states that Mr. Davis
was a good citizen. His remains were
hronght to Blackfoot and buried in the
cemetery at that place, the entire popula
tion being present at his funeral.

little hoy near her own age. After he had
been in the house a little while, he was
interrogated by his little hostess with :
"When are yon going home, Wilbnr ?"

"Well, yon can go now," was the informa
tion frankly given him.

—Jjzeman Chronicle: Farmers inform
us that there is every reason to believe
that the festive squirrel is still with us, by
the numerous tracks in the snow. Some
farmers are already sowing poisoned wheat,
sugar coated, near the squirrel's holes, ami
will by this means succeed in killing a
great nnmber, as the squirrel is quite hun
gry when he comes from his winter habita
tion, and not inclined to be fastidious as to
what he eats. The squirrel is a canning
little fellow, and those who pile poisoned
food near his hole nearly always have their
labor for nothing. The best way to catch
the squirrel is to sow wheat soaked over
night in strychnine, and then stirred in
sugar syrup, over the ground near his hole.
He fails to detect by this method, the bit
ter taste of the fatal poison, and soon turns
np his toes to the dasies.

Democrats are beginning to shout
loud for a convention. They want no star
chamber business in the selection of dele
gates to the St. Lonis convention. The
call of Chairman Clark is not
approved by the party. The Demo
carts demand that the people shall
elect their own representatives through a
Territorial convention. The proposed ac
tion of the committee is deemed a usurpa
tion of power, and if it is persisted in
there is going to be a general kick. Demo
crats are plenty who say they won't stand it.
