A new building is going up on Park street.
The trial of Quinlan, for robbery, took
place yesterday morning, and he was SEN
fenced for thirty days to the Deer Lodge Jail.
That line was down again all day yester-
day between Deer Lodge and Helena. Being
resurrected at about ! p. IN. we were able to
get al;ttle news from the world.
City wolkmcn were to-day removing dirt
from Main street in rider to make a better
grade. The lumber and brics in the streets
might be arranged so as to occupy less space
and thereby cause less profanity among team
sters,
Nearly three hundred persons assembled
last night III Loeber's Hall to witness the
performance of the Hudson troupe. While
we canno say that the troupe is the best in
America, yet it is the universal opinion
that il is the best which ever came TO this Ter
ritory, and that accounts for the increased
attendance last evening. The dancing and
the wolf pla, Ing are well worth the cost.

day, unknown to Dick, the faculty line and a
class line happened to be connected. Dick
called a certain Professor who has attained
high renown in scientific circles by his inves-
legations of the Solar Spectrum. The Pro-
fessor b~enignantly answered ~ l." when he
was somewhat shocked at hearing the instru-
ment tap off, $50 to Helena" with the last

The heliotrope furnishes another method Of
communication which has lately excited much
attention, although used by the u. s. Coast
Survey for many years. 1t consists simply
of a French glass mirror 8 inches in diameter
mounted on a telescope arranged on a tripod
so it can be turned in any direction. By this
the rays of the sun can be reflected and be
made visible for a long,distance. The MINER
editor has tel~egraphed with it for distances of
a hundred miles. In a clear atmosphere,
like that of Montana, the light could prob
ably be seen for a much longer distance.
The telegraphing is done by simply shutting
of, with a dark object, the light and allowing
it to shine, making short and long flashes cor
responding to dots and dashes. Two mirrors
are necessary when the sur does not shine in
the right direction. 1t furnishes amusement
to the heliotropers by throwing light in per-
sons faces, miles away, and watching, with
the telescope, their looks of establishment.
In the sunlight the heliotrope works nicely,
but in cloudy days it is useless. The writer
remembers waiting with a classmate a week
at a lonely farmhouse where salt pork was
the main staple of life, where the reading
matter consisted of a Bible and an almanac,
two very good books but not always interest
ing. The trout brooks were fished dry and
the sunlight for seven long days kept away.
Chuck is now married to the niece Of a Mon-
tana cattle king and is a dignifed college
Professor, but he cannot have forgotten that
dull week. Flags or strips ofcloth can be used
to talk with for short distances. Throwing
the flag to the right makes a dot, to the left, 6
dash. Although ve may have exhausted oul
readers patience, we have not the means O
telegraphing. Some of these may be made
of practical use to nearly everyone and tn
system is easily learned.

his old scrap pile several days afterwards, he
found them nicely rolled up. As be noticed

scrap iron to pay him he supposed me to be
the looser.

HELENA AND OTHER NOTES.

l send you a few more Helena notes which
have not been given before.
Hotter & Brothers are erecting two frame
houses, near Broadway. for rent.
Zinas Hoyt has nearly finished a story and
a half brick on lower Ewing street.
James NJ. Ryan is erecting two brick build
ings on Court Square, for rent.
Mr.. Stubbs has erected a stable Oh Fifth
avenue.
Jacob Loeb is adding to his house on Fifth
venue a large bay window.
John Kinna is adding a porch, and making
other repairs to his house.
Mr.. Emerson, the tailor, is building a
kitchen on his new house.
Gus Weisenhorn has his large house on
Sixth avenue nearly completed. 1t will cost
about $4,000.
Charles Rumley is enlarging his residence.
A new house near the West Side school
house is being erected.
Building contractors say they have more
work on hand than can be completed this
season, even if the weather remains tavora-
BILE.
The Pony saloon, iowa House and Eureka
House have lately been opened on lower Main
street. Board is now as low rs ST. a week.
The travelling accommodations between
Helena and the terminus are bad enough, but
travellers say it is worse the other way, being
obliged to stop over for several hours at two
or three stations.
Some say that the railroad will be extended
to Lovelrs this season, but that report is de-
MED. The railroad accommodations are very
rood there are some handsome cars, and it
is a great relief to get ont of the numbering
coaches into them. Much freight is at Beaver
canon. and we saw Il large amount at Ogden
en- route for Montana.
The Grant wave was in full blast this after
noon, and crowds of people gathered to SEE
him. However, lie only said & few words
and didn't say them very well, either.
The keeney House is one of the best in The
West, and second only to the Beardsley De

The Bohemian Tragedy.

The following are the particulars of the
keman murders, which occurred at this
Ice Friday night. Joseph Keeney who was
|pxicatcd and a stranger to Bill Roberts,
he in and began to insult Roberts about
elt which he had ON. After a few words
eney applied an insulting epithet to Rob
!, who then asked him if he was fixed?
>eney said he didn't need to be fixed to
lip him. Robert then handed Kceney's
kther his revolver (being ignorant of the
ationship) and the two engaged in a rough
fie which was stopped by Deputy Sheriff
lborn. Then Bill and Sim Roberts went
supper. After that, and while talking over
! matter, Keeney came in, and placing a re-
yer close to Roberts fired. Roberts eX-
lined, "This is hard" and drew his revolt
i, fired at Keeney, and fell. The bullet
uck Keeney in the shoulder. Sim Rob-
5 fired at Keeney and hit him near the
ht ear. The lights went out, and, be-
e they were lighted, shots were fired at
eney by Bill Roberts until he fell over
Rd. Sim Roberts, escaped from the Sheriff,
to Fridley's stable, took his horse, and
hitting his revolver at the Sheriff, told him

Rev. j. r. Russell has removed recently
to the house on Park street below the

built and is nicely fitted up.
ID. L. Batterton is erecting two buildings
on Park street. One of them is designed for
a butcher shop. The other will be occupied
as a residence by Mr.. Batterton.
The grape vine between Helena and Deer
Lodge is down again, and our dispatches are
wanting! This thing generally occurs at cleo
ton time and is getting rather monotonons.
The Coroner's jury, as regards the Boze-
man tragedy, found that Bill Roberts, after
being himself mortally wounded, fired the
shot that killed Keeney. Hence, Sim Roberts
is eXonerated.
Ar important transfer in business circles
took place night before last. The store and
merchandise of Charles Blum was put into
the hands of Sands Bros. of Helena, who will
continue the business.
:, Some idea can be gained of the building
taking place in Butte from the fact that ont

subscribed at New Chicago for the Collegia
