Nails the Canard.
Great Falls, April 12. —[To the Her
ald.]—Inquiry of Republican business
men here shows that the Cascade county
member of the Republican Territorial
Committee is perfectly satisfactory. The
Independent's article is regarded as a Demo
cratic dodge inspired by a Democrat.
Chairman McCutcheon said this morn
ing : There has not been heard a word of
Republican disapproval of the committee
appointment for Cascade county, if there
is a kick, a Democrat will be found back of
it every time.
Sporting.
There are over 200 entries to the colt
stakes for the fall meet of the M. A., M.
& M. A. The list comprises horses from
almost every section in the West.
Secretary Francis Pope, of the M. A., M.
& M. A., is preparing designs for new
buildings to be erected at the fair grounds.
A grand circular bar at which 200 thirsty
patrons may be accommodated at the same
time will be one of the features at the race
track.
Prominent sporting men have not lost
confidence in Sullivan. They believe him
as great to-day as he ever was.
Jim Fell and Joe Lannon met last week,
and Lannon had knocked Fell down three
times when the police interfered.
"Reddy" Gallagher, who was in San
Francisco last week, says he will meet
Jack Fogarty in a finish fight as soon as
his present sparring tonr is endend.
Three of the four winners of the Ameri
can Derby, run in Chicago, were ridden by
Isaac Murphy, they being Modesty, in
1884, Volante, in 1885, and Silver Cloud,
in 1886.
Miss Woodford has won more money
than any horse on the American turf. She
captured forty-five races, winning $118,
570. She has another prospective season
before her.
It was Mitchell who was challenged to
fight Sullivan in a sixteen-foot ring for
£5,000 and not Sullivan by Mitchell. The
challenger was Arthur Magnus, of London,
a friend of Sullivan. Mitchell declined,
saying he would never fight any one again,
owing to family considerations.
Jimmy Carrol, the lightweight, received
an offer from the Olympic Club of San
Francisco for a fight to a finish between
yonng Mitchell, Billy Myers or Billy
Dacey. Carroll has replied that he will
fight any of the three at 133 pounds, to a
finish, any rules, any gloves, and fair man
for a referee, and will deposit $250 as a
guarantee that he will be at the battle
ground on time and at weight.
Still in the Flesh.
Mike Lynch, of Marysville, who, it will
be remembered, was blown up by dyna
mite a few months ago in the Stemple dis
trict while developing a mine owned by
himself and partner, and whose life was
despaired of for a long time while laying
in the Sisters' Hospital, has returned from
Chicago, whither he went for treatment
ef the eyes, and is seen on the streets to
day sporting a dude cane and looking with
one eye from behind a pair of glasses upon
his many friends that stop to welcome his
return. Mike has had an almost miracu
lous escape from death, and is authority
upon the difference between the strength
of a dynamite cartridge and the kick of a
mule. He has lost one eye and partially
his hearing, but otherwise he looks well
and hearty. The accident gave him a com
plete knock-out and he is for all time
barred from any more mokeying with
giant powder as a practical miner. He
will hereafter be seen in the role of a bo
nanza king whose receipts from some
valuable mines in the Helena district will
go a great ways toward making happy the
many days that seem to be vouchsafed to
him in the flesh.
In Error, as Usual.
Our neighbor over the way attributes to
Mr. J. W. Kinsley a desire to succeed to
the city attorneyship, which we are satis
fied from the best information is not the
case. Mr. Kinsley has no aspirations in
that direction. The Herald may say, fur
ther, that probably no one other than the
present incombent has been thought of iu
connection with the office.
Mrs. Howey's Lecture.
Missoulian : Mrs. Howey's lecture Mon
day evening attracted a large attendance.
She spoke principally from a historical
stand-point, tracing the growth of the W.
C. T. U. and earlier organizations, from the
earliest movement made for temperance.
The little lady is a power and has a bril
liant future. Her treatment of the tem
perance question is masterly. She strikes
the enemy at every weak point, bat is too
jadicioas to leave a single opening for criti
cism on her own side of the question. She
ranks with the most brilliant of the women
connected with the W. C. T. U.
Boused from Inaction,
The precursor of their disease and destruction,
the kidneys and bladder healthfully stimulated
and toned With Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
actively resume their functions. Thus Bright's
disease, diabetes, catarrh of the bladder and
en eure« Is are prevented For irritating diuretics,
and those unmedicated and fiery stimulants
which, used even in moderation, excite both the
renal and vesical organs, this is the best possible
substitute. It is of botanic composition, and so
congenial to the stomach, the digestive processes
of which it helps in no ordinary degree, that it is
promptly assimilated by the system, and its
tonic effects are speedily felt. Not only does it
remedy inactivity of the kidneys, but renews a
regalar habit of body, promotes a due secretion
and healthy flow of bile into the proper chan
nels, and expels from the circulation acrid prin
ciples productive of rheumatism and gout. It is
also the leading specific for malarial complainte.

TOKEN TO A TENDERFOOT.
The "Organ" Thumped by a Great
Falls Correspondent.
Great Falls, April 11.—[Editor Her
ald]—Beyond donbt the Republicans of
Helena should feel gratefal to the fresh
young man who mismanages the Independent
for the aid he gives the Republican party.
But the Republicans of Cascade county are
not obliged nor accustomed to go to a
Democratic paper to express themselves
politically, and the correspondence pre
tending to be from a Republican is known
here to be a thinly disguised attempt of a
Democrat to stir np dissensions in the
"grand old party" in Cascade county. It is
too thin: you are too.'fresh, sonny, and your
efforts are in vain. Try some new dodge.
The Republicans are united, and univers
ally express themselves as satisfied with
the action of the Territorial Central Com
mittee in every particular. As to the
holding of a convention at Great Falls, it
was never expected by a single Republican
here. Scarcely anything was said or done
abont it save by the Democratic
editor of the Tribune, and while we
would have given the convention
a hearty welcome, and have extended our
hopitalities gladly to the representatives of
Republicanism, we are glad to see that
onr neighbor, Livingston, got it. We are
young and can wait. Nobody is kicking
save the Democrats, and they will kick
themselves worse next fall. There is
really no necessity for the hollow pated
tripod in the Independent office trying to
ran the Republican party. Let him con
tinue his stale inventions about Sand
Coulee coal and he will ran his paper ont of
this town mighty quick. Bnt, God bless
yon, let him go on. He brought a big
majority to the Helena Republicans. He
will help ns still more next fall. Bnt he
cannot pall the wool over the eyes of an old
man who never voted any other ticket save
the Republican.
Craig Items.
The town of Craig, midway between
Great Falls and Helena, on the line of the
Montana Central railroad, is bound to he
one of the many good points springing np
in Montana. A. F. McKay & Co. have jnst
completed a good and commodious passen
ger and freight depot there for the Montana
Central riilroad company.
P. A. Manix, a merchant of Augnsta, (a
town some forty miles from Craig) is build
ing a large warehouse for the accommoda
tion of bis bnsiness, and the handling of
wagons and general farm impliments.
Mr. Stickney has a general store and is
doing a large business.
They have a good blacksmith shop, livery
stable, hotel, billiard hall and sample room
kept by G. Liscnm, who runs a free boat
across the river for the accommodation of
foot passengers, and a good restaurant, by
Andrew McNitt. Craig certainly has the
appearance of a Western town.
Montana Prohibition Conference.
On Thursday, April 19th, at 10 a. m.,

Serious Disturbance Nor Any
Future Danger Apprehended.
Sheldon, Mont., April 11.—To the
Editor of the Herald :—In yonr issue
of the 29th of last month there was a short
communication from one of the besieged at
Fort Lakin. Although; the article wss
written in apparent good faith, the writer
was undoubtedly laboring ander the im
pression that the reported hostile demon
stration of the Kootenais was trne. For
the sake of the public I will here state
that there never was at any time before or
immediately after the lynching any danger
of an outbreak.
There were only two or three Indians,
and those near relations, of the deceased,
that expressed any hostile intentions, and
their threats were directed against those
prominent in the lynching. Even this was
regarded by the persons as only bragadocia
and no fear was ever entertained of any
danger.
The relations of the Kootenais as a tribe
have ever been friendly towards the whites,
and it has only been the knife of the as
sassin instead of the war hatchet of the
plumed warrior to be feared.
Nothing, perhaps, coaid assare the pnb
lic of the utter absurdity of an outbreak
so well as the disparity in the number of
Indians and whites. At the arm of the
lake from whence the danger was
expected there were at the time not
to exceed thirty-five warriors, and scarcely
one-half of them had guns and a great
many no ammunition, and to oppose this
half-starved mob of red striplings and su
perannuated braves,there was nearly if not
quite 400 white men in this vicinity with
a rifle and ammnnition in every home.
In the pow-wow with the chief, which
immediately followed the alarm so dili
gently spread by a few excited people, he
expressed himself satisfied with the hang
ing of the murderers, and further agreed
to give np the remaining one in case he
was apprehended. The opinion of the
thinking people of Fit t head and those
well able to form a verdict, is that we are
in less danger to-day than before, not only
from any serions trouble, bnt from all
those petty grievances which the whites
have so long snffered at the bands of the
Kootenai renegades allowed free access to
their homes. And if the Indian depart
ment continues in the futnre as in the
past to utterly disregard the interests and
rights of pioneer settlers in relation to the
Indians, there is a strong feeling among set
tlers here that they will exact an obedi
ence to law and order from the red men
which the indifference and neglect of or
ganized law has failed to secure. R
A PRETTY PICTURE.
The Children of the Rosebud Carnival
Hold Full Sway at K. of L.
Hall to a Delighted
Audience.
A large audience greeted the little par
ticipants in the Rosebud carnival, held at
K. of L. hall last evening. Folly 400
visitors were present, all of whom enjoyed
the great display. The entertainment was
novel and interesting, inasmuch as a simi
lar production has never been presented in
Helena, or in fact in any city west of St.
Paul. Children at any time present a
pleasing sight, but when grouped in num
ber, elegantly, uniquely and richly dressed,
the picture becomes more entrancing. Snch
was the scene which last night greeted the
eye of the visitor. Sixty little misses and
young gentlemen, each attired in the habili
ments of the past centuries, all undergoing
the mysteriöse evolutions of the terpsi
chorean art, the hall beautifully draped
and festooned, an hundred or more incan
descent lights, rich and rare jewels, costly
silks, satins and velvet*, and melodious
strains from an efficient orchestra, the tout
ensemble of the affair can readily be
imagined, and it becomes no wonder to
note its ultimately glorious success. Prof.
Beggs has surely displayed a master hand
in the management of the event, and none
the less entitled to honors are the youth
ful participants, who, in well-timed num
bers. went through the intricate figures of
the dance, nqt alone to the entire satifac
tion 'of their tutor but to the visitors in
general. Taken altogether it was a bril
liant .affair ; a credit to all concerned and
an occurrence to be long remembered.

Beware of Red Hot Carling Irons.
Philadelphia, April 14. —Miss Helen
Forster, while preparing for a social event,
was engaged in curling her hair by means
of an almost red-hot slate pencil. Slipping
from her fingers, the pencil fell down her
back, where it was held by a garment Be
fore it conld be removed, it proved a terri
ble agent of injury. Her back was scarred
into rows of red, ngly looking blisters from
the shoulder to the waist, as though she
had been gridironed. She suffers intense
pain.

A Couple from Helena Skip Off to
Butte, Where they are Married
Under Romantic Cir
cumstances.
The following account of a little esca
pade, in which some Helena parties are
said to figure, will be read with interest.
It is taken from yesterday's Batte Inter
Mountain, though who the elopers are or
whence their destination is not stated. It
says:
"A marriage took place in this city last
night which appears to have something of
the romantic in it. The lady and gentle
man arrived from Helena by the night
train. They first went to a hotel, and then
a messenger was sent to hnnt np Clerk
Spronle, of the probate coart, for the pur
pose of wearing from him the necessary
marriage licenw. After hunting the town
over for him, he was at last found at the
Union Guard ball, tripping the light fan
tastic toes as unconcernedly as though this
were not a world in which marrying and
giving in marriage was a daily occurrence,
and he an important factor in the same, so
far as this connty is concerned. Somewhat
reluctantly he conwnted to leave the giddy
throng and return to his desk long enough
to help out the expectant couple. Then
the Rev. Mr. King was routed ont for the
purpose of tying the knot, which he pro
ceeded to do with neatness and dispatch.
The utmost secresy was enjoined upon
both gentlemen. Mr. Spronle was asked
to-day who the runaways are, bnt would
not answer. 'It was a fine-looking couple,
though,' he added, 'and evidently well to
do. I promised I wouldn't tell, and I
won't. I don't even know whether it was
an elopement or not, bnt of course it looks
a little that way for them to come all the
way from Helena to be married here
secretly.' "
WHO THEY' ARE.
Inquiry made to-day led to the discov
ery that the high contracting parties were
J. Axford Harvey, the well known horse
breeder of Craig, and Miss Dora E. Stearns,
of Louisville, Ky. They left here on the
afternoon train, arriving at Batte late in
the evening, at which time and place they
were married.
TOWN AND TERRITORY.
—A number of good track men will find
employment by calling on the roadmaster
of the Montana Central at Helena.
—Great Falls is Boon to receive monthly
the visits of a Catholic priest, Bishop
Brondel, of this city, having allotted one
of his clergy to that locality.
—The Manitoba and Mon tar.i Central
railroads have reduced the freight on
pressed brick from St. Paul and Minneapo
lis to Helena to fifty cents per hundred.
—Strawberries made their appearance in
the market to-day. They were enclosed
in a glass case and labeled "10c. apiece"—
as yet hardly cheap enough for the average
plebian to hay.
—The Jay Gould Mining Company have
declared the eleventh dividend of $36,000,
or nine cents per share, making total divi
dends declared to date amounting to
$272,000. The ontpnt for March ran over
$50,000.
—Great Falls Tribune: Our time, of
coarse, is not as "valuable" as the Indepen
dent's, but we use none of it to assail the
Grand Army of the Republic, which is
composed of veterans whose services should
eave them from political abase.
— Avant Courier : The people of Helena
did themselves proud by electing Capt. T.
P. Fuller mayor, and that, too, by Buch a
handsome majority over such excellent
and popular gentlemen as Chas. L. Dahler
and Massena Bullard. Capt. Fuller is not
only a worthy old time Montanian, but he
bears an official record of which any man
conld justly feel proud.
—Sheriff Hathaway is displaying in his
office an old time relic procured from a
prisoner lately in his custody. The article
is an elegantly steel engraved certificate of
deposit on the People's National Bank of
Helena, signed G. M. Fox, issued July 7th,
1876, to George Wilson for the sum of $84,
with interest at the rate of 12 per cent per
annum. It is drawing interest yet.
THEY TOOK THE PAUPER'S
OATH.
Assisting, recently, to the whitewashing
of the Rocky Fork syndicate, Attorney
Word printed a certificate or affidavit pro
cured from Mr. Hoskins, chairman of the
Yellowstone connty hoard of commission
ers, in effect stating that the county was
not involved in the care and maintenance
of the destitute laborers thrown npon the
Billings commnnity. The cold facts, that to
all intents and purposes the starving work
men became public charges and to get a
meal or lodging they were forced to take
the pauper's oath, can not be refuted.
The Avant Courier makes it binding npon
the Rocky Forkers after this style :
Queer, wasn't it, that Commissioner
Hoskins, of Yellowstone connty, who so
kindly guaranteed the payment of board
of the Rocky Fork laborers, at the reqaest
of Walter Cooper, should have made the
men take the pauper's oath before they
could get a meal ? Give us something not
quite so gauzy. The fact is so notorious
that the working men on the Rocky Fork
railroad, after vainly endeavoring to get
their pay, became public charges to Yel
lowstone county, that no brazen contradic
tion will prevail. Perhaps the syndicate
subsequently made the connty whole and
exonerated the chairman of the board
from liability to the connty, but that does
not materially change actual facts.
Sank in Collision.
London, April 14. —The Norwegian
bark Norma, Captain Thorsen, from Sa
vannah, March 5th, for Rotterdam, was
sank in the channel last evening by col
lision with the steamer Bremen. The
latter is badly damaged.
