Robbed on the Boat.

Lieut. Douglass, of the Seventh Infant
ry, stationed at Fort Smelling, was robbed
on his passage down the river on the
steamer Helena. He placed his pocket.
book, containing ninety-two dollars in
money and six hundred dollars in checks,
under his head and when he got up in
the morning, forgot to pick up his treas
ure His bed was made on the cabin
floor, and was rolled up by the porter in
the usual fashion and laid away. When
Douglass discovered his loss there was
confusion confounded. The captain of
the steamer ordered the passengers, cabin
boys and deck hands to file into the
clerks office and stand an examination.
OF course a ADMINISTRATION for which
everybody was prepared resulted in no
Developments, save in the case Of a Grip
pie on two crutches, who has been levy
ing on the generosity of Bismarck this
week. His pockets revealed five hundred
dollars and pauper's ticket for his pas
sage on the steamer. Douglass, however,
couldn't identify any of it as his money.
The porter had eighty dollars in money
and when the Helena reached Bismarck,
he was brought up before the justice and
duly discharged for want of jurisdiction.
The offence was committed in Montana.
Lieut.. Douglass stopped the payment of
his checks, and was not such heavy
loser after all. -.

Anusom entS.

The amusement loving public have
been more than pleased during the past
week with the entertainment given by
Manager Whitney at the Opera House.
The return of the 'Prodigal'' Mile LIE Et-
ia, increases the excellence of Gus Peters
acting, and Mile Oznola and Sig Cappo-
la in their daring aerial exploits on the
trapeze, have received showers of ap-
plause. The arrival of the Shepards was
an event of more tb an ordinary impor-
tance, Mr.. Shepard being without doubt
the best genteel Irish delineator ever on
this stage. His wife is very fine singer
and pleases everyone. Bismarck's old
favorite, Carrie Foster, is again before the
footlights at this house, looking better
than ever before.
Last night the variety clio concluded
with Gus Peters extravaganza, "The
White Fawn." It was a rare treat. The
scenery, acting, appointments, ETC., were
all fine Master Willie distinguished
himself, and the transformation scene was
the finest ever put on this stage. The bur
lesque will be reproduced tonight and
everyone should 60 and see it.

The wisconsin Colony.

A. E. Pound, of Chippewa Falls, who
took colony to Montana from Wiscon-
sin last spring via the Union Pacific and
the Utah Northern r. r., arrived here on
the steamer Helena. Mr.. Pound, with
several others Of his colony, located on
the forks of the Musselshcll. He thinks
they found fine country. All are doing
we'll Pound and two others drove across
the country to Fort Benton, one hundred
and twenty miles. They fancied they
were used to camp life, and when they
reached Benton they rugged out mack
inaw and started for Cow Island where
they expected to make connections with a
Coulson steamer that was unloading its
frei ightthere. After rough voyage they
reached Cow Island and found the steam
er gone They went on another hundred
miles and met a steamer going up. They
bounced the mackinaw and took the
steamer. They finally met the Helena
coming down and exchanged for her.
Nearly four weeks were consumed.
Pound doesn't praise the advantages of
mackfnaw travel. He will return to- Mon

Held For the Murder OF JAS. Gibbons.
John Clancey was examined before o..
S. Commissioner Corey and held in the
sum of 81 500 bail, James Bellows, bonds
man, for the murder Of James Gibbons on
the 26th of August. The testimony
showed that there had been a, quarrel be-
tween Clancy and Gibbons at the r. r..
camp on the extension near Young Mems
Butte, with both parties to blame. Clan
cey came up to q wagon and borrowed a
gun that was lying in it. Gibbons OBJ:
served the movement and made a verbal
protest. They both walked to the front OF
the wagon, when Gibbons snatched up.a
neck-yoke and made a break for Clancy.
Clancey says he was within three feet OF
him and in self defence raised the gun
and struck the bell1gerent James on the
side of the head. james dropped sense
less and in three or four days died. Mr.
Flannery appeared for the defendant at
the examination. There were several
witnesses to the deed. Clancey's case will

and their influence will be felt. They are hostile

On the same bench with Kidder and Barnes is .
strong man by the name Of Moody, who once run

voted for in the convention that nominated the
Black Hills candidate, for delegate. At Fargo
President Hayes, through the opportunities Of
Gov. Howard, selected Moody as BENEFITS sue

object to Congress. The Office of judge only pays

Tuesday evening Dl. A. T.. Blgelow re-
turned from his summer visit to Vermont
and found that his private rooms on West
Main Street had been searched during
his absence. The same night that Mr..

as it the same burglars entered the front
window of the DOCTORS Office and passed
out of the door of his labratory without
injuring the furniture, but not without
taking the following valuables: A fine
double barrel Parker gun; heavy over
coat; seal skin cap; three pairs ofpants,
and two pair Of blankets. The burglars
did not disturb anything in the office or
show malicious spirit by smashing the
furniture. They borrowed one Of the
