Lieut. Frederick Schwatka, the fam
ous explorer, returned a few days ago
from Alaska, gives the following account
of his trip: "We opened about 500 or
000 miles of totally unknown country
and of course a good deal on each side.
We have secured a thorough map, which
was taken by Dr. Hayes of the geolog
ical survey at Washington. A large
collection of botanical specimens was
made and photographs taken of every
thing of interest. The most important
feature of the whole trip was the suc
cessful breaking through of the St.

Advices from Christiania, Norway, say
that matters there are assuming an
alarming appearance. The people are
every day becoming more irritated
against Sweden and »determined te
assert complete separation from that
country. The sentiment in favor of
declaring Norway a republic is not
founded on agitation among the lower
classes, but is widely entertained by the
wealthy residents of Norway. These
are extremely democratic as a rule both
in their ideas and manner of living, and
they are tired even of the comparatively
democratic craft of the reigning family
of Sweden and Norway. The Swedes
have already resolved to keep Norway
by force of arms, if necessary, and a con
siderable body of troops is ready to
enter Norway at any time.
The supreme court of the United
States met for the October term Mon
day. Three justices were absent from
the court. Chief Justice Miller is in
Chicago, where his daughter is very ill,
and Justices Bradley and Gray have
lioth been very ill, but are now recover
ing. The business transacted was the
admission of applicants to practice be
fore the court and the announcement by
Justice Field that the most important
cases advanced for argument next Mon
day would be postponed until the sec
ond Monday in November. This step
was taken for the reason that it is de
sired that they shall be heard by a full
bench, and the probability is that all the
justices will not be present Monday
next. The list includes the Sayward
case, which involves the question of the
jurisdiction of the United States over
the seal fisheries in Behring Sea, the
anti-lottery cases, the elevator case and
cases involving the question of the con
stitutionality of the McKinley tariff act.
The court adjourned a few minutes after
12 o'clock and went in a bedy to pay its
respects to the president.
A Great Falls dispatch of the 14th
says: Several days ago two ranchmen,
Garr and Mann, while looking for stock
near Mann postoffice, were astonished to
suddenly come in sight of a man in the
rocks busily engaged in rifling a heap of
letters. They watched him for some
time and then went to Kibby and in
formed Justice Lee who returned with
them to arrest the robber, but the man
had skipped. Over sixty letters were
found all of which had been cut open.
The letters ware addressed to parties :n
Fergus county. It will be remembered
that Mrs. Barnum, the postmistress,
and her son were arrested on a charge
of robbing the mails at Mann, and that
marked money sent as a decoy by In
spector Sackett was found in possession
of Mrs. Mann. A new postmaster was
immediately aypointed and Mrs. Mann
was held to the grand jury. She claimed
to have received the money from a
stranger and this man answered the de
scription of the one seen by the ranch
men. The letters found were mailed
subsequent to the arrest of Mrs. Mann
and it is evident that the robberies still
continue. It is thought the robber is
acting in collusion with parties handling
the mails.
A CANARD.
The New York Prea* Kxposes that "Im
portant Bill" Business.
The article credited to the New York
Press in a recent issue of this paper, in
which it was alleged that unfavorable
action had been taken in the New York
legislature against the Royal Baking
Powder, proves to have been a canard,
gotten up and circulated by opposition
baking powder makers for purposes
quite apparent to everyone.
The New York Press, in exposing the
fraud, says, "Nosuch legislation as that
stated in this article has ever been had
in this state—or in any legislature, to
our knowledge." The lie is made from
whole cloth. The Press disclaims any
responsibility for the publication, and
objecta to being made a party to such
methods adopted by some baking pow
der manufacturers in their efforts to
substitute their goods for others now in
use. ___
Highwayman Captured.
The highwayman who held up and
robbed Conductor Richardson at Hal
ena laat week and subsequently shot
and dangerously wounded Policeman
Grogan, was captured Friday in a most
unexpected manner. The nature of the
offenses committed naturally prompted
the officers of the temporary capital to
the greatest vigilance, and as a conse
quence every person whose actions
placed them under suspicion was imme
diately arrested. Among the suspects
was a young fellow arrested at the
Northern Pacific depot, while apparently
awaiting the arrival of a train, by Offl
oers Gibson and Bach. An examina
tion of the person of the prisoner dis
closed the possession of a gold watch
and other property—the watch after
wards proving to be the one stolen from
Conductor Richardson. When placed
in the jail the prisoner gave the name of
Charles Miller and requested to be per
mitted to send a note to a friend. The
note waa written in Swedish and when
translated read: "Henry Clark—I am
in jail; come to me." The note waa de
officer in citizens clothing, accompanied
' by other members of the police force,
who waited upon the outside of the
building. When Clark had been found
and the note handed him a signal was
given to the police in waiting, who hur
ried in, arrested Clark and took him
the jail. An examination revealed the
fact that he possessed a 38-calibre revol
ver, the same as that with which Officer
Grogan was shot, and also shells for
44-calibre gun, similar to that secured
by the policeman from his assailant
the time he was shot. A pawn ticket
was also found for a gold watch, which
it has ai nee been discovered was the one
taken from Fisher when he was held up
in his saloon at Anaconda several weeks
since. In addition to this evidenje of
Clark's identity as the highwayman
wanted he was recognized by Richard
son as the man who held him up, and
also by Officer Grogan as the one who
committed the assault upon him.
After the arrest of Charles Miller it
transpired that instead of being a young
lad, as was supposed, the prisoner was
full grown woman masquerading in male
attire. When this discovery was dis
closed to Miller she expressed surprise
that the officers had not sooner detected
the disguise and stated that her name
was Bertie Miller, but finally admitted
that her real name was Helen Forsland
and made a full confession. According
to her story she had resided with her
parents near Lockwood, Washington.
There she made the acquaintance of
Clark, who worked on an adjoining farm,
and he persuaded her to accompany
him to Montana about a year ago. Since
that time they had successfully held up
and robbed a number of persons in Mis
soula, Phillipsburg, Butte, Anaconda
and Helena. She stated that at Butte
she had on several occasions, single
handed and alone, held up parties upon
the streets, working one part of the city
while Clark did the same thing in an
other locality. She asserts further that
she was with Clark when he held up
Conductor Richardson, and was also
near by when Clark shot Officer Grogan
and narrowly escaped baing hit by one
of the bullets from the officer's gun
while attempting to shoot the bold foot
pad. This confession not only clearly
establishes the guilt and identity of
Clark, but fully explains the prevalence
of daring robberies at different points
throughout the state during the past
season.
George Clark and Helen Forslund,
alias Charles Miller, had their prelimi
nary examination Monday before Police
Judge Sanders at Helena. The charge
preferred was highway robbery. The
evidence on this charge, although not so
convincing as was hoped, resulted in
their being held to answer in the dis
trict court in the sum of $5,000. The
not so positiv^ as to tne iffSnluy'oi «jiara
as was anticipated, the_description given
failing in several minor particulars to
correspond with the appearance of the
highwayman when arraigned in court.
Admitted to Ball.
Deeney, Hickey and Kelly, the Pen
rose murder suspects, were admitted to
bail Tuesday afternoon by Judge Pem
berton in the sum of $10,000 each. Bail
was sjieedily furnished and the men
given their liberty. They have been
imprisoned in the county jail three
months. Their J trial in the district
court will probably come up this fall
term.
In making the^ruling'Judge Pember
ton said there was,but one question for
him to determine, whether the proof is
evidence of guilt or'„whether the pre
sumption is sufficient to raise a doubt
in the mind. It always has been the
spirit and iiolicyjjkfgrunt bail except in
cases where it is specially stated other
wise in the constitution. There was
nothing in this case that would cause
him to deviate in the matter from any
other oase. This court should not be
controlled in its duty by the enormity of
the crime nor the passions and preju
dices of the people. Its duty was to
weigh the evidence and determine if the
defendants are entitled to bail. In doing
so he finds that there is no pretense that
guilt is evident or positive, and it must
be admitted that it is all circumstantial.
In conclusion Judge Pemberton said: "I
am of the opinion that these defendants
are entitledto bail. The object of confining
people is to secure their attendance for
trial. Where there is reasonable doubt
about admitting them to bail, he thought
every doubt should be given in favor of
the defendants, and they should always
be credited with innocence until this is
wiped with the proof of their guilt."
The New Game Law.
Several of the state papers have been
publishing game laws at different times
during the past summer, none of which
have been altogether correct. Secretary
of State Rotwitt furnishes the follow
ing, which he vouches for as entirely
correct and reliable:
"Deer, antelopes, mountain sheep,
mountain goats, elk and moose, Septem
ber 15 to January 15. Buffaloes and
quails protected until 1901. Hunting
for skins onjy, for market or for sale,
and hounding prohibited. No close
season for bear, curlew and snipe. Ot

April 1. Grouse of all kinds, sage hens,
fool hens, pheasants and partridges,
August 15 to November 15. Ducka and

neats and eggs, and those of all game
birds protected. Hook and line and
spear fishing allowed at any time, but
catching speckled or mountain trout for
profit prohibited; the use of explosives,
poisonous drugs and nets, traps, etc.,
prohibited."

Publication Notes.
The new fashion journals, published
lished by A. McDowell & Co., 4 west
Fourteenth street, New York, are again
on our table. The superiority of these
journals is abundantly shown on every
page. "La Mode" is the smallest of the
three and is intended for family use.
It has many styles for children, and is
only $1.50 per year or 15 cents per copy.
"La Mode de Paris" is an elegant jour
nal, filled with everything of the latest
style in Pans. This is a great favorite
with the ladies who wish to keep
posted on the new styles as they come
out. "Album des Modes" is also a pop
ular Parisian publication, many ladies
giving it the preference. It is replete
with such styles as are patronized by
the middle classes, its designs being
neat and plain, yet all of the richest

and they are all printed in Paris. They
contain lessons in practical dressmak

The beauty of American women is
proverbial and the distinction is well
merited. It is doubtful whether any
country could show a more notable
bevy of perfectly lovely women than
those whose portraits are given in the
November number of Demorest's Fam
ily Magazine, just received. Exquisite
pictures of a score of "Famous Beauties
of the South" afford a feast of beauty
that everyone should enjoy, and may
by simply procuring a copy of this
splendid number of this always excel
lent family magazine. And this is not
its only great attraction. A unique
series of articles is begun in this num
ber, "The Romances of Pre-Columbian
Discoveries," "Her Soul's Secret,'
"Lessons in Riding," "Home Art and
Home Comfort." In "Sanitarian," Su
sanna W. Dodds, M. D., tells about
"The Unequaled Distribution of Cloth

RED LODOK NEWS.
[From the Pieket. I
We have been giving too much atten
tion of late to the frivolity of society and
have settled down for one year's hard
toil. This frivolity business has no re
ference to the gold cure.
On last Tuesday evening, Mr. James
Campbell, a popular young salesman of
this city, and Miss Daisy Gibbs, a lieuuti
ful young lady who recently came here
from Miles City, were united in marriage
at the Congregational church by Rector
Herbert G. Sharpler.
The contract for the construction of
the water ditch of the Rocky Fork Town
and Electric company was let last week
to Jamee Virtue of this city. The ditch
commences from station No. 8 to station
No. 16, inclusive, requiring the excava
tion of nine thousand cubic yards. This
ditch will cover about thirty thousand
acres ef fine agricultural land and will
also be used as a means of furnishing
the city plenty of good and cheap water.
The marriage of James Queen and
Miss Jane Cammack was to come off
Thursday night, but had to be postponed
on account of the license not being legal.
Mr. Queen lives at San Coulee and so
procured the license of the district clerk
at Cascade county. Great Falls. The
clerk told Mr. Queen that the license
would be good to marry in Park county.
If we were the prospective groom wo
would sue this official for damages and
there is not a jury in Montana but what
would award damages. The necessary
affidavits have gone to Livingston and
the weddiug will come off Monday night
and Rector Herbert G. Sharpley will of
ficiate.
