Tell* of^the Business of Hit Road- Atchi^^son Officer* Llected. NewYork, May 9.^ The senate inter^^state commerce committee resumed its^work this morning, end President Roberta^of the Pennsylvania road testified. lie said^that since the i'nited States began to regu^^late the railroads by special legislation the^latter had heen placed at a disadvantage in^competition with those of Canada. The^effect of the Grand Trunk road being inde^^pendent of the legislation which affects^those of the I'nited States is a constant^menace to the tatter. ^1 don't know that^at present the Canadian roads do any^serious injury to American commerce,^ he^-Hid. ^but they are in a position to do so at^any time the managers see tit. 'Whatadvantages have the Canadian^roads over those of the I'nited States^was asked. TheCanadian Pacific is beavily subsi-^d /.ed by the government to encourage the^development of the country. The Grand^Trunk and Canadian Pacific draw their^supplies from England free of duty. Canroads in the I'nited States be ope^^rated as cheaply as the Canadian roads Thereis considerable doubt as to the^answer to that question. Whatremedy have you to suggest as an^amendment to the law that would place^Americ an roads and Canadian roads on an^equality'.''' Ithink any foreign corporation doing^business in the I'nited States should he^subject to the same laws as the roads of^our own country. If Canadian roads are rrmittedto carry traffic in snd out of the^nited States, they should be made amen^^able to four law. Of course we cannot^oblige foreign roads to conform to our^laws when out of the country, but while^thev do business within our borders, the^same law should apply to both. In fact, 1^am not sure foreign roads should be allowed^the privileges they enjoy in this country,^even if under these conditions. 1 cannot^quite understand why foreign roads should^be allowed to go in and out of the I'nited^states while foreign vessels are not al^^lowed to do a coasting business with this^Ciuntry. SenatorGorman^There is a move on^foot, 1 understand, to construct a through^line from the Pacific to the Atlantic coast^to connect at either end with a subsidized^line of steamers, its object being to take^the trade that comes from China and Japan^and transport it to the eastern coast. What^chance, in your opinion, do American^roads stand of controlling this trade HubertsThe American roads have tin-^first call on all such trade, and under equal^conditions with the Canadian roads could^control it. Robertssaid he was in favor of pooling.^Under the old system of pooling certain of^the roads kept part of the contract, but^other conditions were violated. SenatorBlair^Then it is not true prin^^ciple of railroad business that a combina^^tion is better than competition Roberts Hardly j Ism in favor of fair^competition under proper legislation. If^this could be brought about it would be^much better than any pools. PresidentW. C. Vanhorne, of the Cana^^dian Pacific, was called and described the^Canadian Pacific from Halifax to Van^^couver, thence by line of subside-d steam^^ers to China, Japan and Australia. The^Canadian roads compete with American^roads for trade from San Francisco, China,^Japan and Alaska, and some of the trade^from Ontario to Manitoba. SenatorCullom^What percentage of^yrurtraffic is from the I'nited States VanhorneI do not know the exact fig^^ures, but aside from coal the percentage is^very small. The transcontinental trade^from China, Japan and the wt stern part^of the country over the Canadian Pacific is^constantly increasing. It gets 10 or 12 per \^cent of all the western and Pacific trade. Theimpression is general,^ said Presi^^dent Vanhorne, ^that the relations of the I^Canadian Pacific road with the govern^merit are exceedingly intimate: but I as^^sure you the relations are anything but in^timate, and not as cordial as those between^the Pennsylvania road and the government^at Washington. Then nearly all our rails^and material came from the l~nited States. |^and altogether we have no advantage over^the American lines, although labor is some-^what cheaper with us. The greater por^^tion of our coal comes from Pennsylvania !^and Ohio, and therefore costs us more than j^it does your roads. Vanhornewas followed by President and^item ral Manager Newell, of the Lake^shore A Michigan Southern. He testified^that his r^iad suffered severely from the |^competition practices of the Canadian^roads, and offered to furnish the committee^with documentary evidence of the unfair !^dealings and methods of the Grand Trunk '^railway in particular, which he said was^now one of the longest carriers out of Chi^^cago. Chairman Cullom accepted his offer.^President and General Manager Led yard, i^of the Mefcafraa Central, said his road was^losing business rapidly by reason of the^fact that the Canadian roads were practical !^ly free to do as they pleased, while American^roads were fettereu by the interstate law^l.edyard was quite bitter against the Can^^adian railroads and favored spe. ial legisla^^tion against them.

J^The third and last day's ses^^sion of the Congregational conference^opened to-day at 10 a. m. with devotional^exercises by Kev. S A. Wallace. Imme^^diately alter the opening exercises a paper^was read by K~v. Wm. Ewing. of James^^town, Dak., the subject of which was^Catechetical Instructions. He gave a gen^^eral account of the Congregational Sabbath^school work in Dakota and Montana and^the methods of the Sabbath school publish^^ing society of the denomination. At 2 p.^m. there was a genera! discussion, the sub^^ject being, ^How to reach the masses.^^Kev. W. C. Fowler opened the discussion^with a very able address in^which be said that there was^a prevailing opinion that the church was^partial to wealth and favored the rich as^against the laboring man. He said that in^cases of strikes and labor troubles minis^^ters and the editors of religious journals^should make careful inquiry into the^causes and not be influenced in the wrong^direction. Fraternalgreetings of the Episcopal^church were then* ably presented by Rev-^J. W. Van Ingen. He argued that the di.^vision of the Christian church must in the^nature of things be a sin, but just where^the sin lay he was unable to^say. He thought that perhaps the^Episcopal church had been severe^in persisting in non-essentials: that^the only thing to which he clung and^which divided him from the other churches^was the belief in apostolic succession.^Kev. W. B. Coouihs also extended the fra^^ternal greetings of the Methodist Episcopal^cburcb in a short address. Atthe close of the afternoon session the^members of the conference drove in a body^to the canyon, a distance of five miles.^The evening service was conducted by^Kev. Wm. Ewing, the subject being ^The^Only Salvation.^ After the evening ser^^vice the committee on resolutions re^^ported that the thanks of the members of^the conference be extended to families who^had extended hospitality to the visiting^brethren and to the Northern Pacific rail^^road for generous reduction in fare, and^that the resolutioi. s be printed in the news^^papers. The next annual conference of the^denomination will be held in Helena, the^first Tuesday in May. 185*0. THF.FIRE RECORD. ConflictingR^*portt*^Vermont Ilia HIDES,FUR and WOOL.

The de^fendant proved up on the land and sold it^to Lehman, but Sparks found a clerical^error in the proof and held the land for^cancellation, ever after Lehman had made^$30,000 improvements upon it. Dewitt re^^fused to correct the mistake made and^Lehman asked that a patent be issued in^proof that Dewitt bad complied with the^law.

There^had been a gradual decadence in secret^societies in Ireland sinceHe was awarethe league advised tenants not to en^^ter the land court after the passage of tbe^act establishing that court in ISM, and sub^^sequent events justified that advice. He^only knew of one Instance where the league^had been indiscreet. This indiscretion^consisted of tbe passage of a resolution by^a branch of the league to publish in its dis^^trict a list of persons not members of the^league. He protested against this action,^and the publication of the list was thereup^on abandoned. Asthe league spread secret societies van^^ished. People learned to prefer open par^^liamentary action and to dislike secrecy.^Throughout his diocese cases of boycotting^bad been few, although the leagues were^strong in that district The only sense in^which boycotting ought to be tolerated^came under the name of exclusive dealing.^An j t ing like intimidation was reprehen^^sible. The members of the league held^that boycotting kept the country free from^outrages. Witness did not approve of re^^fusing to sell the necessaries of life to a^man under boycott He understood tbe^plan of campaign would be purely volun^^tary. The combination did nut imply boy^cotting. Atkinson,counsel for the Times, here^quoted from a pastoral issued by the arch^^bishop in 18R2, denouncing a movement not^to pay debts as a forcible resistance to law.^Archbishop Walsh said the pastoral had^been issued in const quence of the increase^in the number of secret M-cieties, owing to^the disorganization ot the league under the^imprisonment of its leaders, and while tbe^people were driven to despair by evictions. WAS [JXTJ8KD To TKAVEL. sad Mishap of a Washington Territory^Woman on Her W;i .,-t Rochester,N. Y'., May 9.^A week or^more ago Mrs. Chas. simonson, of Wash^^ington terr.tory, started to visit friends in^New Tork city in company with her little^girl of 5 years. She was apparently in^good health, but the excitement of the^journey seemed to wear upon her. She^was unused to travel and the constant^move and loss of rest so affected her that^when still some distance from Buffalo she^became violently insane. She was affected^by a dread that some one was going to kill^her. With great difficulty the conductor^prevented her from jumping from the train^with the child in her arms. When the^train reached here she was taken to an in^^sane asylum with the child. The mental^condition of the latter causes some appre^^hension. Mrs. Simonson's husband is a^prominent lumber dealer of Washington^territory. NEWSFROM SAMOA. KnappeLeave* the Inland and Hi* Succe^or^Arrive*^The Wre^ketl Seamen. Sidney,N. S.

Louisville.May 9.^Tbe spring meet^^ing of tbe Louisville Jockey club opened^to-day. The weather was very fine and^the largest crowd ever known was present,^being variously estimated at from 15,000 to^25,000. The track was in good condition,^well sprinkled, hard and safe, though with^two inches ot dust and a little fast Mon^^tana answered to California in the results^of the day. All else is eclipsed in the Ken^^tucky Derby. It had been in sight and^hearing for weeks. As three years ago^Haggin brought Ben Ali out of the west to^lower the Kentucky Derby record to^^^ so Armstrong came to-day with^Spokane and two seconds more disap^^peared. A little crowd of far-west turf^^men were present, and with little ado they^went about backing their favorites. Arm^^strong a year ago said he was going to take^this, the highest honor of the west. There^were not enough coast people to overcome^the immense enthusiasm and backing of^tbe home horse. Proctor Knott so the^money was nearly all laid one way. The^first pool this morning was $150 for Knott^and Sill for the field, and while much bet^^ter than this was done for both later, especial^ly in private bets, this shows the strength of^the sentiment All bets against Knott were^considered a snap, and the only reason^Kentucky is not broke to-night is lack of^men from tbe west to take their offers. Asthe horses filed up the track for tbe^great event all appeared in perfect condi^^tion. Tbe game chicken on the great^Futurity winner was cheered t^ the echo^as he came out sixth, and the youngest^entries who followed were received with^applause. Spokane was hardly noticed,^though a quiet tip was out among tbe^knowing ones that he had been saved for^the occasion. Atthe facing post the starters and^riders were: Sportsman, lis.

Therace was run out of the chute. Fer^^guson had little difficulty in getting them^off together, and the start was very even.^Hindoo Craft was in front Bookmaker^second, Spokane third. At the head of tbe^stretch tbe positions were little changed,^though the crowd was closing up on^Knott, who was evidently waiting for the^finish. As they turned the stretch tbe race^commenced and seldom was such a run^witnessed In America. Knott was let out^but Spokane came up with a tremendous^rush. Half way down the stretch^Knott swerved and Spokane forged^to the front by two lengths. Barnes^wheeled the favorite into line just as they^reached the distance stand, and be came up^like a bolt It was too late, however, and^Spokane passed under the wire winner by^a nose, Once-Again third, three lengths off.^The rest were strung out The race was^worth S4,H50 to the winner.

LitTleRock, Ark., May 9 ^The federal^authorities think now t iat tbe theft of the^Plummerville ballot box last November,^which led up to the assassination of Hon.^John M. Clayton, is cleared up. It appears^that several days ago a young man named^Warren Taylor was taken before the grand^jury and tettifie i that li was in a crowd of^young men who went to Morrilltown, the^county seat, on election night as they un^derstood it to preserve the peace, as trouble^was expected. When the crowd arrived at^Plummerville they were baited on the out^^skirts and five men rode town. Pres^^ently they returned and reported, ^Every^^thing quiet,^ and the crowd returned. On^tbe way to Morrilltown the five men^gave it out that tbe Piummerville^ballot b^ x was in the crowd. The box^was taken into Wells' store at Morrilltun^and burned. This confession of Taylors^was the means of having a large number^of witnesses from Conway county sum^^moned before the grand jury. Just before^the grand jury adjourned indictments were^returned and to day it proved that these^were the indictmeuis. The men indicted^are O T. Bentley, P. Wells and Charles^Ware, charged with unlawfully seizing and^carrying away tbe ballot boxes and poll^books. The following are charged with^conspiracy in tbe stealing of tbe box: Chas.^C. Reid, Ben Wb.te. Tboa. C. Harvey. Wm.^Palmer. Warren Taylor, Ferd Lee^Gunter, Wm. S. Wonda, John C.^Heard and Tbad R. Wells. Reid is a^young lawyer of Morrillton who bad just^oeen released after conviction In the led^eral court of Interfering with election^judges. Toung Wells is ihe son of one of^the most prominent merchants of Morrill^^ton. Benton is the deputy sh riff of Con^^way county. Under Sheriff Shelby and^Deputy Marshal Faulkenburg went to Mor-^r.llton to-day and arrested all the men not^previously in custody snd brought them^here this evening. Tbey were taken b-dVre^the commissioner and released on bonds^ranging from 110.000 to S20.000 each. The^examination will take place at an early^day. But they cannot be tried until the^next term of court as the appropriation for^the trial ot criminal cases baa been ex^^hausted. These men are ail prominent^young men and the arrests produced a^great sensation. Dtvldewd*for ltepo*ltor*.

When he was considered a win^^ner in the Kentucky Derby, leaving Proc^^tor Knott out, it was not supposed he stood^a ghost of a show alongside the famous^winner of last year's Futurity. But Spok^^ane has proved b'lnseif the greatest three-^year-old on the American turf. His race^was remarkable in many particulars. In^tbe first place, it beats all previous records^made in tbe Derby. It was also remarka^^ble from the fact that at no previous time^were the weights so large a- on this occa^^sion. Spokane's time of 2M\ is only half^a second slower than the best record for a^mile and a half.

Tbe decision causes^dissppoin tment among the republicans, for^Mr. Child was expected to provide funds^liberally for tbe campaign and to secure^for the party the votes of the workingmen^at the smelter. Mr. Child, it Is understood,^declines for business reasons. Tbe ac^^counts of tbe popular uprising for Gibson^and Collins, the democratic n^mice^s,^must also have impelled him to withdraw^and not waste time and money on a hope^^less fight Tbe withdrawal of Mr. Child^Is deemed fatal to the republican^prospects. ^We must now find some^one who Is willing to be slaugh^^tered,^ said a leading republican this^afternoon. It will be difficult to induce any-^prominent republican to run at this late^hour. Tbe strong republicans who were^so reluctant to run against tbe popular can^^didates will be still more disinclined to do^so now. Tbe democrats will not, however,^relax their vigilance. Tbe committee de^^sires the democrats throughout Cascade^county to work hard, so as to roll up a big^vote for th e party nominees, who are well^qualified to represent tbe county in the^convention.

NoahArmstrong was a happy man^when his horse Spokane won the Ken^^tucky Derby, beating Proctor Knott and^the best record; and it would be safe to^wager the plethoric silken pnrse awarded^to the winner that a great many more^people know now than ever knew before^that his owner is from Montana, and that^the horse is here native and to the manor^born. A profound mineralogist and^metallurgist, with years of ex^^perience as a practical and^successful miner, Mr. Armstrong wrest^^ed a handsome fortune from the stubborn^rocks, and a decade of years ago sought^the more pleasant and less arduous vo^^cation of raising fleet flyers and trotters^on his horse farm, Iron carder Ranch,^at Twin Bridges, Montana, which in its^appointments is one of the beet between^the Mississippi river and the Paeitk^ocean. His ambition was to raise the^ber-t thoroughbreds in the I'nited States,^ami the performance of his three-year-^old Spokane at Louisville, yesterday,^testifles to his success. It was a richly^deserved triumph for Mr. Armstrong^that makes all Montana glad. XOTKSOF THE DAY. Arrangement*have been made for a pub^^lic debate in London sometime in May be-^t A-.s n Mr. Henry George and Mr. Samuel :^^iuiid. a member of parliament. Mr. Smith j^has published a number of essays on poltti- '^cal and economical subjects. TheKev. Joseph Jordan, who was or^^dained in Philadelphia last month, is the^first colored man to enter the ministry of the i^Universalis! Church. He Is to engage in^mission work in the south. iieorge La Blanche, the Marine, has been^matched against Mike Lucie, the Boston I^middle-weight, the contest to take place at ,^the California club, san Francisco, May ^^2H. The two men are evenly matched in^every respect, and a fine contest is ex^^pected. TheBritish consul at Havre says that thecomplaints of British shipmasters^against the British tars are constant. He^has heard captains say frequently ^Give^me Norwegians, .Swedes or Germans, but j^no English sailors for me,^ They have^their old time ability as seamen, but are^drunken and insubordinate. \V.M. Strother, of Lynchburg. Va.. owns^the memorial ring worn by General Wash^ington after the death of his brother Law^re.re. It is a cluster diamond set in pat^^ina and gold. On the outside, in a curious^^ly wrought style, is engraved the nameot^Lawrence Washington and the date ot his^death. The ring is mentioned and de^^scribed in Washington's will, and was be^^queathed by him to his brother's widow,^who was a Miss Fairfax. Thereis a family in Waterboro, Me.,^that is certainly blessed with perfect health^and immunity from accidents. David^BefttsMr, of that town, is in his ninetieth^vi ar and his wife is but two years younger.^1'hey have been married sixty-five years^and have three children living, the eldest^b'-ing upwards of 10 years of age. These^children all have children of their own^ai.d urandchiidren, and in the whole line^of descent, from Mr. and Mrs. bcribner, to^their greatxrandchildren, no death has^ever yet occurred. Thedefeat of prohibition in Massachu^^setts is now likely to cause a general re^^vulsion against the movement such as that^which took place tn lHoo after a similar out^^burst of zeal and enthusiasm had for a year^or two taken up the public attention.^There is nothing in the present movement^which .ndicates that it will be longer lived^th m its predecessor was in the agitations^thit spread over the country thirty five^years ago. Aneastern paper has been making ex^^tended inquiries regarding the displace^^ment of horses on street railways in cities,^at.d hiids that there is a general movement^lo iking to the abandonment ot animal mo-^rive power and the substitution therefor of^the cab e and electric motor systems. From^the information obtained the belief is ex^^pressed that in the course of the next five^years horses will be entirely superseded in^all the large cities. There is some doubt^ahut the relative popularity of the cable^and electric systems, but It is highly prob-^side that the latter will be the favorite^^ii-ans of locomotion in the eastern states II e name of Thomas J. Potter is to be^Perpetuated by the erection of a hospital^for injured and sick railroad men, to be^built somewhere in Iowa. Nearly $10,000^h.'.s already be -n raised, and the committee^anticipates little trouble in securing S'-io.-^Oxri. which will be sufficient to warrant a^start oti the building. The hospital will be^erected in the city that subscribes the most^money. Such a hospital was one of the^favorite schemes of Mr. Potter during his^life, and he was untiring in his efforts t^5^put it into effect. Among the most anxious^f r the substitution of tbe hospital for the^monument is Mr. Potter's widow, who^earnestly requested that the change be^made.

i1 THEDAILY INDEPENDENT: HELENA. FRIDAY .MORNING. MAY 10 188!^. PLENTYOF WATER EngineerTarr Talks gation Problemin^Territory. Aboutthe Irri-^Montana HeThinks There is Sufficient Water^,f Handled Rightly to Water^All Ranches. brutOut by the I iitt^-^I -late- Mr. T.r^Hill Krporl uu Iti^- Out-stlon of^^u.raa;r Rs-as-rsol r^. S.Tarr. a hydraulic engineer, and^member of tne MM MM geological^turkey of the interior depart inent, has be^-n^in this city since the latu-r part of April.^He was sent out by a senate commission to^prepare a preliminary re|^ort on the condi^^tion of IrriKation in Montana. Mr. Tarr^has been connected with the geological^survey for the past two years, and has been^cone 'ted with the irrigation depart^^ment. lew feature adopted by the hfty-^first congress last fall, lie made several^reports on the condition of the country in^s. w Mexico. Co: gress has appropriated^JSJO.i^^1 for the purpose of solving the irri^^gation and storage problem of the I'nited^gMK The last appropriation made was^^250.000, but this Is not available until July^1-l Mr. Tarr waj met by an Imikpkmj-^est r^-port^T at the Cosmopolitan hotel^vt-stt-rday, and the gentleman consented to^give a few points on the nature arid pro^^gress Ox bis work, iu which all Montana is EmM ^Whatis the nature of your work waa^asked. Therewereseversl branch es ot the work^but the work 1 am detailed to do here Is to^hod out hrst the approximate amount of^land under irrigation in Montana; the way^in l.i.-li water is conducted to the noil; the^approximate amount of water in the nat^^ural channels: the per cent appropriated to^that available, and the meilnxls, rules, reg^^ulations and laws governing the adruini*^tratwn of water. The method of trie work^so far has been carried on by correspond^^ence. I have obtained the names of many^farmers in different sections to whom 1^have au'lressed a list of ij nest ions, which^have in some instan, met wan prompt^replies, but not all. The questions asked^cover the ground of my instructions from^the leparuiient.-' ^Whathas been the general result '1he great point 1 have|found so far is that^tie-re ii an abundance ot water, practically^the si:| iy is unlimited. There is also^abunoant tor future use on an extended^scale if properly handled. The amount of^land whh'h can be irrigat'd is very gieat,^hut it will have to be carried in by large^canals and by storage.^ V\I,st have )ou learned about the Milk^river country^ ^1have heard nothing so far from that^section. 1 shall know about the country-^later I'ti. as 1 intend verifying the r^ ports^by personal observation of each section.^1'ractically no irrigation has In-en at^^tempted iu Montana outside of the imme^^diate valley lands. With the exception ot^a few canals in course of construction in^the sun river country and the ^^al latin val^ley canal no effott has been made to run^high line ditches. Wherever the country is^le or not t si much broken the high lands^are the best tor agricultural purposes. At^least this has been the result in all arid^Ian Is thai I have studied, Montanais behind other territories in^the matter of irngration, but this can be^accounted for owing to the tact that irri^^gation in this territory is in its infancy.^There is no place to go to gather statistics^on the subject; the entire work is left to^the geological department Most terri^^tories and all states have either a state en^^gineer or other officer or an immigration^bi reau, wtiosi duty it is to collect statistics^oi. the water supply and the amount of^land under cultivation, with a detailed^description of their domain. by this^means the work which is now^being uml.rtak.n is greatly^facilitated, and it would tea lieneficial un^dertaking if at an early day Montana^should establish a bureau covering this^matter.

Tha-Vuderbilt Party VUlt Butte. Ketorn^and ^.o to Great Falla.^The millionaire excursions, whose ar^^rival in Helena was announced exclusively^in the lnuK.pw.yom yesterday morning,^attracted many people to the Northern Pa^^cific depot. The train reached here short^^ly before o clock. Dr. Webb, a Vander-^bilt by marriage, was standing on the plat^^form viewing the sight,. He waa attired^in a tweed suit, and chatted pleasantly^about his trip. He said the party was in^the best of health, and were having a most^pleasant time and were most hospitably en^^tertained by the good people of the west-^The train contained four ears, the outward^appearance of which, while attractive, waa^no indication of the luxunouaness of the in^^terior. The car that first catches the eye^is the Elamere, though it is last on the^train. This car cost ^30.000, and is said to^l^e the most perfec ly fitted and elegantly^finished rail way vehicle in the world. It^contains several large sleeping rooms,^baths, etc., and the rear compartment is^what is called an ^'observation^ room. The^door is at one side of the end instead of in^tbe middle, and the remainder of the end is^a huge plate-glaas window, giving an un^obstructed view. Similar windows on the^sides give to the occupants as clear a view^of th^ landscape as could be bad on an^open car. The Elamere is furnished with^every known contrivance for mitigating^the discomforts of railroad traveling, and^is handsomely upholstered and finished.^The first car is a remodeled rm:^t car.^The forward end has been arranged for a^bavrgage room, and contains berths for some^ot the servants. A bathroom, supplied with^hot and cold water, has been substituted for^the buffet. Tbe main compartment is used^as a music room, library and general^amusement hall for tbe party, and contains^a tine piano, bookcase, writing desk, etc.^At one end of tbe room is a gun rack, filled^with Winchester rifles and shotguns. When^traveling at night the conductor and guide^remain in this room, with guns within easy^rearb, prepared to make things interesting forany road agents who might stop the train.At the hrst sign ot trouble the occu^^pants of this car c n alarm everybody else^on the train by touching electric buttons,^aid there are some crack marksmen in the^party. Dr. Webb is said to be an expert^r:tlc shot, as is also his brother, Frank^Webb. The conductor is Colonel Oscar^Eistmnnd, a veteran of the civil war who^has an interesting hist ry. A guide accom^^panies the party. His name is Krazier. He^lias been a frontiersman and knows the^country from Panama to Alaska. Tbe^train can at a moment's notice turn out an^armed force of sixteen men. Thesecond car la a Wagner coach^specially remodelled for the trip. The^kitchen occupies two-thirds of the car. It^requires two cooks and six colored waiters^to attend. The rest of the car is taken up^with a long dining table. All the station^^ery seats have been removed. Thethird car, the Mariquita, is one of^Dr. Webb's private cars. It is divided^into several compartments, the largest of^w hich is a family sitting room, fitted with^easy chairs, sofa and tables. Another ri is reserved as a playhouse for the children.Dr. Webb's iarge sleeping room,^bath and toilet rooms take up the remainder^of this car. Aphysician also accompanies the travel^^ers. Tbetrain did not remain here over half^an hour. It was switched onto the Mon^^tana Central, where a run was made to the^^greatest mining camp on earth.^ General^Manager P. P. Shelby accompanied them^to Unite. They visited some of smelters^and mills and other attractions of the great^silver-copper camp. They spent about^t.nir hours in Butte and reached here at^7:03 p. m. and left for tireat Falls at 7:17.^1 he next stop will be at St. Paul. 1mm^where they will run over the Canadian Pa^^cific to Vancouver, from where they will^take a ten day's voyage to Sitka. Upon^their return, via tbe Canada road.the) will^go to Mielburne, Vermont, where Dr.^Webb and his family will rest during the^summer, after the greatest railway excur^^sion on record. ERMINIE. Ths Vrond Performance ot the Opera a MMImprovement ^Mer the f irst.^A second large audience witnessed the^Encore club's version of ^Erminie^ last^evening. The performance showed a^marked improvement over that of the pre^^vious evening, soloists and choruses ap^^pearing to enter more into the spirit of the^occasion. Tbe orchestra also was handled^better, and taken a,t..get:.er the evening's^entertainment was creditable to the club.^With the two public representations of the^opera and the self-possession the singers^have acquired thereby. Butte is sure to be^favored with a really enjoyable perform^^ance next Saturday night. Inthe notice of Wednesday night s opera^mention should have been made of the ex^^cellent acting and make-up of Miss .Sadler,^as trie Princess, who constituted a notable^figure in the second and third acts. Thecostuming of the opera was elegant^throughout, and reflected great credit upon^til- taste ot the ladies and gentlemen of tbe^club, who have been at mu^h personal in^^convenience and not a little expense to put^the opera on the stage. The proceeds of^the week's work will take the club out of^debt and leave a surplus which can be ap^^plied toward furnishing its new hall, in^the El-ctric Light building, where, it is^probable, all future performances by the^club will be given, and, where, also, tbe^arrangements will be more convenient for^rehearsals and soirees. ktoreTour fnrs at IIaIm k PERSONAL. uden.

Is it^i.ot evident that ultimtaely you will have^tin look to the Missouri river tor water F It^may be said that the cost will be too great.^Let me say that if you wait until yon have^a population of 180,000, tbe cost ot the^right-of-way and reservoir facilities will^c rtainly nut be less than ten times what^tlie same can* be secured for to-tiny, bo, if^tin- work is done now, tbe increase of your^population will assist in paying for these^i uprovements. Is it not better to begin^to-day while land is comparatively cheap^and secure an abundant supply of pure,^good water t It is hardly necessary for me^to say that 1 am in no way interested, but^having passed through a similar experi^^ence here I think 1 can safely advise your^people to move in this important ma'ter at^nee.

His^name is John McCarty, an^ he is a book^agent for Appleton A Co. He is wanted by^his wife whom he married under the name^of Alston In Elgin, Illinois, two years ago.^Mrs. Alston, as she calls herself, but who^is in reality Mrs. McCarty, is now in San^Francisco: yesterday a letter came from^her addressed to tbe chief of police of Hel^^ena, and was turned over to Detective^Walters. The letter is quite lengthy. It^gives the woman's history, bow she became^acquainted with McCarty, when she mar^^ried him, and how she was led to intrust to^him a large sum of money, which alter^gaining possession of, he deserted her. Mrs.McCarty says that about three years^ago she was keeping a millinery store in^Elgin, III and Alston, as he then called^himself, was there canvassing for school^books. He remained there for some time^trying to have the schools adopt hl^ book*^and succeded in so doing. During bis stay^in Elgin Mrs. McCarty, who was then Miss^Allen, became acquainte-d with him, aud^he began to pay her attention. He suc^^ceeded in gaining her affections and wben^he left she was his promised bride. Alston^went from Illinois to Minnesota, where he^remained for very nearly a year, when be^returned to Elgin and made Miss Allen bis^wife. Tbey lived happily together tor a^year, Mr. Alston making frequent trips on^the road while she remained at home and^attended to her millinery business, which^brought her her in a great deal of money. Ayear ago Alston induced his wife to^seli out and go with him to San Francisco.^She deposited her money^the sum is not^stated^in a San Francisco bank. Alston^was rarely at home, but in every way was^a dutiful husband, sending her money^while on the road. She says she wanted^for nothing. LastApril Alston returned home from a^tour through Oregon and Washington ter^^ritory. He informed his wife that he had^a chance to invest in town lots in .Seattle,^and that a fortune could be made by s i do^in/. Mrs. Alston.having implicit confidence^in ner husband, drew her money from the^bank and gave it to him. He left home^next day, and his wife says she beard no^more from him until she learned that he^was in Helena living with another woman. shetells how she came to know that her^husband's name is McCarty. It seems that^shortly after be left San Francisco, Mrs.^Alstein was visited by a young wi man^named McCarty, who produced indubitable^proofs that she was Alston's sister. She^says Miss McCarty, whose home is in Hart^^ford, Ct, has been searching for her^brother for four years. He robbed tier of^-4 imo and left, and she has been searching^for him ev* r since. She learned that he^had changed his name and tbe tracing be^^came easier. Mrs. Alston was astounded^when she learned of her husband s perfidy,^and called upon the chief of police of San^Francisco and told her story. The chief in^^vestigated and found Alston had left the STRIKEOF TAILORS. TheI'nion Men out In Helena For a Slight^Advance in Wage*. Thejourneymen tailors of Helena are on a^strike for the adoption of a schedule of^prices which is a slight increase on cer^^tain kinds of coat making. Numerous in^^terviews were held yesterday between the^bosses and men and it is understood that^all firms with the exception of one are will^^ing to accede to the demand of the men.^The tailor's union is a strong organization^in Helena and the prices received for work^allow tbe men to make good wages. The^president of the union was questioned yes^^terday as to the cause of the strike, but he^was reticent and averse to giving informa^^tion. Enough was learned, however, to^warrant the statement that an increase ot^fifty cents is wanted on certain coat^work. No demand is made for higher^prices for pantaloons and vests. Thecause of tbe strike as learned from^one of the strikers was that there is one^scab shop in the city and that they turn out^work cheaper than union shops can do, and^that in hopes of getting the men to join the^union they established a schedule ot prices^slightly In advance of tbe present schedule.^They presented tbe list to the bosses and^all acceded to the demand except one and^it is thought that be will come to time to^^day.
