CITY Wood Measurers.

i,rre can be 70 doubt that the leopie OF
Butte would be glad to see our Council pass
all ordinance similar to the one passed re-
Gently by the Council of Helena, and rrpu0-
lished last week in the MINER. The appoint
ment of city wood measurers has proven quite
satisfactory, as var as we can learn, in Helena,
and as the Independent says, cav.lers are cas-
ily answered by the reminder that the bene-
fit of such an ordinance is that when Il citizen
buys 4 cord Of wood he will know that lie IS
getting full measure; and the same Will be
the case as regards hay and coal.
The Helena city wood msasurers, as ap-
nointed, are II. II. Guthrie, of the railroad
meat market, and Chas. A. Dewitt, at the
corner of Main and Bridge streets. The fee
charged for measuring is fifteen cents ior
each load.

Artisan Wells.

The scarcity of pure wafer in some parts of
Butte and especially a: points in the imme-
diate vicinity would suggest that some enter
prising man or company might sclve the diff
Guilty by sinking an artesian we'll. An ex-
pert call easily tell from the form alton of the
country just what is the best locality for such
purpose. The fact that water unfit for use
is found plentifully in certain leads is no cri-
terion that at other points and in other ledges
and formations, a plentiful supply of pure
water could not be struck by boring to the
depth of few hlndred feet. We learn from
the Black Hills Times Of October Goth, that a
gentleman connected with the De Smet Min
ing Company of that camp has been nvesti
eating the proposition of sinking an artesiaa
we'll in that locality and feels confident that
the idea is feasible The formation of the coun-
try on and about Bald Mountain, he says, is
favorable to the project, and the probabilities
are that the enterprise will be undertaken as
soon as the necessary machinery can be
placed on the ground. A flowing artisan
we'll in that district would be a bonanza. The
difficulty with that section is the scarcity of
water. The Portland mill, one of the finest
in the land, has its stamps hung up for the
want Of water. Can any one say that such
a project is feasible in the Black Hills, and
impracticable in Butte?

UTAH & NORTHERN
Pioneer Excursion from Montana,
Eastward, Hol fr.

On October 10Th an excursion train will be
run from Silver Bow Junction and Dillon
through to Omaha, for the benefit of exctlr-
sionlsts from Montana eastward. Tickets will
be good for ninety days, which affords ample
time to merchants wishing to purchase goods,
as well asto travellers and visitors. The fare
from Silver Bow junction to Omaha and re-
turn will be $10s, a large reduction of the
regular rates. The regular trains of the Utah
u Northern cannot of course run into Butte
by that time, but the citizens and business
men of Butte will find ample accommoda-
tions and a irst-class through passage on the
train leaving Silver Bow. Tickets will be
for sale in few days at the principal stage
offices in the Territory, and at Silver Bow
junction and Dillon. They can he OBJ
taned until November 18th, the
the day on which the pioneer ex-
ours ion from Mont ana, will leave for the
East Large reductions will be made in the
fare from all points, the fare from Butte be-
lns IF course merely nominal increase over
that from Silver Bow junction. Schedule
rates from butte have hot yet been eStab blish-
ed, as the regular trains cannot run into
Butte by November l5.
The tickets issued for he excursion will
not be trans 'erable, bearing the name of the
person to whom they are sold. Citizens Of
Montana cannot do better than seize the op-
portunity for cheap, bat tirsl-class trip to all
points in the East Many miners, who would
otherwise winter in Montana will no . doubt

The following is the schedule of fare to

telegraph Operator Killed a
Franklin.

Meagre details were received at The tele-
graph office IN Butte of the killing night
before last of Mr.. Hinckley, the Western
Union operator at Franklin, Idaho. About
8 o'clock Thursday night two masked men
entered the office, and, presenting a cooked
pistol to Hinckley's head, ordered him to
throw up his hands. A young mali III the
same building witnessed the tragedy and de-
scribes what followed. Hinckley Was alone
in the room, and the men demanded the
money in his possession. Before he could
even make all answer the pistol was discharg-
ed and the ball passed through his chin into
his neck, breaking the latter and causing in
slant death. The murderers, for so they are,
whether the deed was done voluntarily OF
not at that moment, fed Immediately, and
had not been captured at the latest report.
There are large number of persons out
looking for the wretches, and j. is supposed
tney will certainly be captured.

Dowell McCook one Of the famous figh ting
McCooks of Ohio, and now commandant at
Fort Douglas, a. A. McAasters, Register of
the Land Office at Salt Lake, N. Shoughnes-
sy, United States Marshal of Utah, and F.
R. Mcconnell, general agent of the U. P.
road at Salt Lake City, arrived in Butte
night before last. OF these gentlemen Gov.
Murray, as one of the owners of he Moulton
mine, is known in Butte, but for most of the
others this visit to the Silver City of the
Northwest Isl revelation. Yesterday morn,
ing il company with Mr.. Bowers the party
visited the Alice, The Moulton, the Wabash
and several other mines, returning in
the evening to the St. Nicholas hotel.
lGov. Murray and several others went
through the Moulton, and they all,
with one accord express the highest admira-
ton at the wonderful mineral wealth and
business activity of Butte. During to-day
they will again drive out, and will leave this
evening with Governor Potts, who arrived in
Butte last night and joined the party.
The trip has beon pleasant and speedy,
their train making 35 miles per hour, and
reaching Silver Bow Junction a. 80, being
the first regular train to run into the june

Di strict Court.

The trial of Emma Parker for robbing one
Dominic P;nney in a Park street saloon, Oh
October Sd, progressed yesterday before
Judge Galbraith and a jury. As already
mentioned, it began on Wednesday after
noon, and will in all probability be concluded
this forenoon. The defense put in some very
strong testimony in favor of the defendant
Yesterday. One witness testified that the
prosecuting witness had said to him the day
before that he had found most OF the money
alleged to have been stolen, while another
said that Emma Parker had both hands full
of money of her own at the time she was said
to have gone up to Pinney to rob him. Ii
she had one hand full of silver and the other
full of sresnbacks, as testified to. when she
went up to Pinney, it is difficult to see how
she could have put either hand in one OF his
pockets and abstracted large roll OF his
money.

A Royal Entertainment.

The dinner given to Governor Potts of Mon
tana, Governor Murray of Utah, Governor
Neil CT Idaho, and to General McCook, Col.
Shaughnessy, Capt. Mills and others, on last
Friday evening, by our towusman, the Hon.
w. A. Clark at his residence in this city, was
probably the finest entertainment ever given
in The Territory. The dinner was served in
the Co influential style and comprised dozen
courses of the choicest vianls and delicacies
to be found in Europe and America, and
lasted about four hours. A different wine of
the rarest quality, selected by Mr.. Clark
himself from the most celebrated vintages of
France, Germany and Italy, was served at
each course ofthe repast 1t is needless to
stat that good cheer prevailed around that
princely board, and without doubt the event
will be remembered among the pleasant rec
objections of the Silver City, which we conf
IDENTITY believe our distinguished visitors will
carry with them as they journey homewat

REAL ESTATE REVIEW.
Week Ending, October 20. 1881.

The substantial and conservative Irosl err
ty of Butte is demonstrated by the buoyancy
aud steadiness of teh real estate market. This
more than any other in dication points TO an
enduring prosperity and reliability Of
values. The large operations of the firm Of
Curtis L. Andrieux enabl. them to furnish rs
with statistics and prices which index the
present cond ition of the market. At tie
same time the public demand Tor street in =
provements, sidewalks and crossings, con-
tinues to be detrimental and encourages pur-
chasers TO hope that steps may soon be taken
by the Council to remedy existing disadvan-
tagss. The following sales are reported by
Curtis s. Andreux for the past week: One
lot, Upper Main street, $3.50: one lot, Broad
way, So, 600; two lots on Granite near " ash
ington streets, $500; three lots on Copper
near Washington street, $1,000; two lots on

The first Soiree of the season was given last
night at Owsley Hall Gy the newly formed
Bullion Club. Only members of the club to
whom ticket had been issued by the treas
urer were admitted, with ladies invited Ivy
them, and there were probably forty couples
present, with an excess OF gentlemen over
the ladies. The music was furnished by tie
quarteLte, consisting of Messrs. Dusseau,
Speck, Fitschen and Marsh, and was all that
could he desired. The effect of combining
the piano, flute, cornet and violin in a single
stream of melody was enchanting. There
were no refreshments. and dancing closed at
4 sensible hour. 1t goes without saying that
the occasion was delightful to all present.

To The Hon. " J. CIolbraHh, Judge 2d J"dici@
District il, ana for Sitter BoW County, Territo'y
Of Montana:
We, the special Grand Jurors empanneled for
the september term of Court, A. ID. 1881, would
respectfully report as follows, to-wit:
That we have carefully examined into all
public otienses committed in said county COM
ing TO our knowledge, and have to the best of
our ability made true presentment thereon.
That we have examined the county buildings,
also the books and accounts OF the several OF.
ices and found them neatly kept. We would
recon- mend to the County Commissioners that
they forthwith furnish suitable accommoda
tons for the criminal classes of Our population,
as we tiud the present common Jail very inse-
cure and unit to accommodate the criminal
element in midst.
EThst in the course of our duties we visited the
| county patients in the Workingmens Hospital
and tinu it wholly inadequate to accommodate
| the indgent sick, overcrowded, poorly ventila-
ted, and not ii place for the sick, and lecom
mend to the County Commissioners that they
forthwith provide more suitable accommoda-
tions.
Also recommend that the County Commis-
| SiOnerS furnish more suitable rooms for the Dis
| trict Judge and District Attorney of this Judi
| cial District to conduct their official duties
We would further recommend through your
Honor that the various township officers and
county officials should exercise better judgment
| i'll brlu ging witnesses from distance, and at a
| great expense to the county, who know nothing
about the case for which they have been brought
| to testify.
Wherefore, having completed our duties tc
the best of our ability, we would respectfully
request that we ne discharged for the term,

STEVENS.
NJ more wire gold has been discovered in
the Stevens since since last week, but other
wise things are looking much the same.
Work is progressing steadily, and the ore
bodies in the face of the drifts look better
than ever.
Operations were shut down yesterday fer
one day only, in order to adjust the spur
wheel, which arrived on Friday from tie
house Of Griffith & Wedge, GAINESVILLE, Ohio.
For several days past full force has been
working in the mine OH the POO and 300-foot
levels. On the 400 and 5O0-foo levels moth
ing has been done OIL account Of the water
mentioned last week, which was lowered IN
the main shaft some four or five feet in the
twenty -four hours ending yesterday morning.
Stopping is proceeding regularly on the 200
and 3O0-foot levels, the regular quantity of
ore, some 20 to 25 tons, being taken out
daily. The excavation for the Cornish pump
is nearly Finished and the pump will be in
running order in two or three weeks, at
which sine it is expected to start up the new
mill. Nearly all the pieces OF the pump
have come, but q few parts of the spur wheels
have not arrived, being expected to-day.

will probably be done below the 300 foot
level. The bulk head is still in place and a
10nch stream of water pouring steadily
from the pumps, giving them all they can now
manage. The milne never looked better than
it does low, and in very short time cross
cuts will be made to the main vein on the
400-toot level and the new mill sat fairly to
work.

A FLYING SPECIAL.
Best Narrow Gauge Time On
'-E Record. ss tEt .E.

A special car and engine, as stated in veg
terday's MINER, awaited Judge A. j. Davis
and his party day before yesterday at Silver
Bow junction. The time made by this car
on its journey southwark and eastward is
probably the best ever made OH a narrow
gauge road west Of the Mississippi river. The
train consisted of 4 large and powerful
engine, III which were two engineers and a
fireman, the special Pullman car containing
Judge Davis, his brother Mr.. Erwin Davis of
New York, the married daughter. of the
latter, resident in Chicago, MIR. Samuel Word,
who accompanied the party as far as Lillon,
and the porter. From Chicago westward to
Silver Bow junction, as Mr.. Davis came out,
the special made the very extraordinary time
of two days and eighteen hours including a
stoppage of six hours on the road. Butte
merchants will open their eyes to hear that
there is such speedy communication between
| Chicago and the terminus. Judge Davis
sesmed to enjoy the trip very much, as the
engine rushed swiftly up the long Divide
and down again through the level valleys by
Dillon. The speed at which they moved was
such that the two engineers kept constant
lookout ahead, while the little party Of four
held their breath with pleasurable excite
ment. Nothing could be more exhilarating
to all invalid than such easy and rapid loco
motion through the finest mountain scenery
in the West. Considering that the Utah &
Northern road is a new one, the time made
between Silver Bow Junction and Dillon, viz:
one hour and forty-fve minutes, is really re-
markable, being torty-two miles per hour.
Mr.. Word said goodbye to the party at Dillon
and returned from that point to Butte with
the gubernatorial party who arrived night
before last.
