Bismarck tri-weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, D.T. [N.D.]) 1875-1881, 1877-08-31

Geo. H. Pendleton, of Ohio, and Hon.
Thos. Ewing, from the same State, have
made a feeble attempt to answer sec'y
Sherman's Mansfield speech. Their
efforts are simply rehash of the old ar
guments used in last falls campaign,
clothed up with superficial tinsel and
glittering generalities, to catch gudgeons.
The best support Secretary Sherman
needs against all the attacks of sore
heads and wooden heads is the fact
known to the whole country, that gold
and paper are gradually coming togeth-
er, being less than four cents apart at
present, and at the same time the monied
powers of the world, which, in fact, con-
troll it, manifest their confidence in this
policy by continuing to invest in our re-
funding securities at decreased rate
of interest, AZ and 4 per cent. Appeals
to passion and prejudice prove nothing,
but such facts as these are sufficient for
thinking men.

Joseph and Sitting Bill.

We have learned from reliable gen.
tleman that report has been received at
Fort Lincoln that the willy Joseph has es-
capped from Gen. Howard by the way of
Henry's Lake, Miners Pass and Boteler
Park: and is nov on the upper Yellowstone
and moving towards the mouth of the
Muscleshell, and that Sitting Bull had,
with all his forces crossed the line and
was moving down Milk River IN the di-
rection of Joseph's apparant objective
point. Ifthese reports be true Joseph
and Sitting Bull are evidently making an
effort to unite at or near the mouth of the
Muscleshell. 1t is also reported that a
large number of the Standing Rock In
dians left that Agency night before last.
A courier was sent from Fort Lincoln
night before last with orders to General
Miles to rendezvous his entire command
at Fort Peck and after reaching that point
to use his: own discretion, General Stur-
gis is on the Muscleshell with the 9TH
Cavalry, numbering about four hundred
men and the entire Crow nation. The
evident intention Of Joseph and Sitting
Bull Cf this report proves to be true) was
to catch Sturgis between their forces and
reenact the Custer massacre, but s'The
best laid schemes of mice and men,
And should these hostile chiefs succeed
in forming union at or near the mouth
of the N1uscleshell, General Miles and
Sturgis will probably both be there to
witness the hostile marriage and furnish
the music for a grand war dance.

A Nevada Hotels Guests.

The Virgins (Nev.) Enterprise re-
lates this of,"Bob Howland's hoter' at
Meadow Lake.. "Bob had no sooner
put up his sign than his old mining
and prospecting acquaintances focked
to his standard. They could hardly
believe their eyes when they saw Bob's
name on the sight seemed almost too
good thing. In they marched by
twos and fours, and throwing their
blankets and other traps into a corner,
advanced with Hello, Bob! you infer
nal old thief! If amt glad to see you
may be blowed! They then proceed
ed to make themselves at home, never
missing a meal and never paying cent.
The butcher finally shut down on meat
for Bob's boarding house, the milkman
shut down on milk, and the baker on
bread. Bob explained the matter to
his dodgers, who to man swore they
would not desert him. They would
whip the butcher, the milkman, the
baker, or any other man Bob wanted
whipped, and if no more meat, milk or
bread could be had, they'd get along
on boiled cabbage and potatoes, Or any
other cheap stuff that could be had"

Bank Wanted.

We again desire to call attention to
the necessity for bank at Bismarck.
No matter what ones standing is fnan.
cially, no matter how great their busi-
ness, no matter what security is offered
or what rate of interest, there is NO
place a: Bismarck where one can &c
with any confidence for twenty dollars
for ten days. There is no money to
loan at Bismarck on any terms.

Bismarck.

Major Hanson, correspondent of the
Pioneer-Press, speaks Of life at Bis
marck as follows, in his closing letter
in relation to the North Pacific, Bis
marck and the Black Hills: ''The peo-
pie of Bismarck have many very fine
horses, and riding and driving IS ex-
tremsly fashionable. The ladies enjoy
themselves in this way and many Of
them are most excellent riders and dri-
vers. The gentlemen have . straight
mile racing course on the smooth fat
prairie, and impromptu races take place
quite often in the twilight hour. 1t Is
. delightful city to live in, and one can
scarcely believe it is on tho verv edge
of civilization. The best of order is
observed, and few arrests are necessary.
There are the usual number Of refresh
ment places for gentlemen, but the pop
ular one, which is known IS the ''Don-
nelley's'' of Bismarck, is the ''Minne-
ha-hs," conducted by Mr.. G. Z. Will
lians. It is : quiet, neat place, snd is
frequented by the best class of gentle
men, who make it their headquarters.
Mr.. Williams is assisted by Mr.. ". J.
Mahon, formerly of St. Paul, who is an
adept in his business.

apron became ignited, and the doors and
windows being open and strong breeze
blowing through the house, the flames
spread almost instantly, and ere the poor
girl had time to think Of her perllous sit
uation or what to do to save herself, her
clothes were all On fire. Bewildered and
half crazed she ran out of the house into
open the air, and throwing herself OF the
ground, covering her face with sunbon-
net, she lay there until Mr.. Russell came
to her assistance, but by this time two
thirds of her body was burned in shock
ing manner. Her clothes were entirely
burned from her, nothing being left but
the leather belt encircling her waist. At
ter doing all in their power to alleviate
the suferings Of the unfortunate girl,
MIR. and Mrs. Russell summoned DR.. Nc

crisped body, pronounced her injuries
fatal, and after suffering the most excru-
ciating pain for thirty hours she died Oh
