The Last Concert.

Last evening the fourth and last Of
tile Pearson concerts Attracted small
audience. The absence Of the Orcllestr II,
was noticed and regretted, though the
Alice Cornet band, under the leader
ship Of Professor Wall, gave several ell
joyable selections. The programme al-
together was not as good u one as that
Of Monday evening. Miss Pearson and
Miss Mcintyre sang, and sang we'll.
Mr.. Penrose and Mr.. Speck were we'll
received i'm their. tenor and lass solos
respectively. The gem of the evening
was Chopin's Fantasia by Messrs. Ken
nicott and Speck.
The Pinafore duet by Miss Pearson
and Mr.. PenrOse seemed highly appre-
ciatcd. Miss McIntyre's favorite old
ballad, "Our Dream Of Love is Ger"
was sung feelingly and received cordial
~. The audiences Mt these PERFORM
ances have not been in numbers what
might have been expected, although
lovers Of good music sympathize with
and appreciate all such efforts to .esta.'-
lish higher public standard.

From Helena.

A recent Helena paper states that =
couple Of prominent business men start
ed Friday evening about eight O'Clock
from Helena for Silver City, to visit
friend who had sent for them; but
about three the following morning, after
having Travelled about thirty miles, they
arrived ut Mullan tunnel-not Silver
CITY. These were old settlers in the
capital city, Their exploit shows that
continual harping on one subject will
demorulize the strongest intellect and
produce degeneration Of the nerve and
brain tissues. These gentlemen simply
illustrated the prevailing epidemic in
Helena to run everything into the
QrOl,nd-in the Mullan Cave.

The prohabuiti0 are that Judge 0eE-
braith will today finish the Deer Lodge
term Of the District Court. The docket
has been pretty we'll cleared. From =
gentleman just returned from attend
ance on court 1t 10 learned that the
Reecs patent cases against the Montana
and Colorado Companies In the U. 8.
Court were continued to the next term.
The Kennon damage suit againt GtImer
l. Salisbury was also continued, the
the pleadings not being in shape to
admit Of trial at this term. 1t seems
in this case that the Supreme Court Of
Montana caused general surprise par
ty to the pleaders by holding that the
nplaint, to which no exceptions had
been taken in the court below, die not
state facts Sufficient to support the YER
dict.
The case Of Hammond against Henry
1Iilot. to recover the value Of horse
driven from Butte to Phil!l'sburg by the
defendant, and which had failed dead
lust this side of the latter place, was
tried on appeal in the District Court.
This time the jury fonnd u verdict for
the plaintiff for the value Of the horse,
assessing damages ut $125. 1t is said
the costs in this case now amount To six
.,r sove,, hundred dollars.
VIM. Curtis, OH the charge Of having
shot ut man, was convicted simply OF
an assault and fined fifty dollars, to the
Agreeable surprise Of his friends.
In the contested divorce case of We
mandy against Wenandy, the plaintiff
asked divorce on the ground of the
wiiful absence OF the defendant. The
Jury, however, rendered q verdict fol
the defendant. This was the third tria
Of the cause, there having been hung
Jury in each Of the former trials.
Perhaps the most important decision
in its general scope, made at this term
of court, was the holding Of Judge Gal
braith that a Chinanian could hold un
patented placer ground. Tibbatts ant
others made locations on placer ground
which had been purci.a* I'll by China
men, relying on the decisions ofJutige:
Sawyer and Field in the U. 8. Circui
Courts Of California and Nevada, that
Chinaman could not hold such claims

brought by the subsequent white 10

accordingly did.

Attention Citizens.

The transi ion rom nh ablC-b"died
l,s.,yar to an u!,lc-botlieti thief is easy.
Score Of men have asked charity on the
streets Ot Butte within the past few
days. Some Of them were men who
would not take work were it offered to
them. Two responsible citizens last
evening related incidents Illustrating he
situation. Us follows: One Of them was
import umed for help Ivy u stout-iN'king
fellow ut the hank corner. The citizen
said hc would go with hin, to the near
est restaurant and pay for Il meal. After
walking II few steps he pointed out the
restaurant anL gave the man half u dol
lar. After waiting /. moment the starv-
ing suppliant turned his back on the
restaurant and was seen to 80 into sa-
loon and drink two glasses of whisky in
succession. In the other instance the
gentleman appli, Il to for aid Is a mine
owner, and Offered to secure the beggar
work at hi. hosting works. The prOl,O-
~ition lid not meet with favorable ~
ceptiOn.
Now man who will not work and
who has u" mon ~, and is aln've all
stranger, and consequently perhaps i'm
buc.l with the i.iea that this Is the glOri-
GUS West, where he cal. do AZ he plc:.ses,
and where there is hut little law and
les. enforcement, makes an easy pr'sc-
lyte to robbery, larceny and burglary.
4 number of felsniol,s attempts have r.
Gently Ietm made. StOddard's cigar
store on Main street wis burglarized
yesterday morning between three and
four o'clock. An attempt was made to
enter by the back window, but Mr..
sto<ldard appeared on the scene with n
stick Of cord wood, with which he WAS
about to demonstrate with the burglars,
when they turned tnil AMI fled. An
ounce hall is u good protest against
movements of this sort.
