Death OF Thomas J. Bogy.

After q lingering illness Of many weeks
which rarely loses its marked victims,
all that vas mortal of Tom Bogy passed
away Saturday morning, at halfpast
four o'clock. Several weeks ago he was
brought TO Benton from Poplar river for
medical treatment, and it was hoped at
first that he would gain strength suffic-
lent to allow his removal to his home in
the south, but it O became apparent
that even that boon was not TO be- grant
ed him.
The deceased was one Of the old TIM
ers in Montana. He came to the terri
tory in 1864, and three years afterwards
entered the employ Of 7. G. Power &
Bro, in whose service he continued in
various capacities until recently when
stricken by disease.
Tom Bogy was widely known through
the Territory as a genial, whole-souled,
straightforward gentleman, respected
and esteemed by all. He was a business
man of fine qualifications, as is best
shown by his long and continuous con-
nection with the house of T.. C. Power
& Bro. During his last illness he vas
attended by his brother, William Bogy,
and other friends, who supplied every
want but that which it was not in their
power to give-restoration Of health.
The deceased was a nephew of Senator
Rogy, Of Missouri, and of JOS. H. Nc
Knight, post-trader at Fort Shaw. The
funeral will be held to-day, at 2:3o p. M,
from the residence of John ". Power,
on lower Front street.

A Smart Trick

\ Day before yesterday q half breed, a
young man, stole q horse from the upper
end Of town, where thad been picketed,
and sold it to Charley Bourassa, realizing
fifteen dollars in cash IN the operation.
But during the ensuing night he stole
the horse again, this time from Bour-
ASA, and returned it to the picket, prob
ably before the righttul owner had
missed the animal. The enterprising
thief left or yesterday mornings coach
for Sun River, but will have to make
pretty good time If he gets away with
the sWag as an officer is after him.

The Rosebud was ten days going from
Benton to Bismarck. She was too
heavily loaded with wool and managed
to get fast o. nearly every sand bar in
the stream. She got there, however, and
not a bale Of wool was left.
The steamer josephine, OF the old re-
liable Coulson line, has made her fifth
trip from Bismarck to Benton, and is the
only boat on the Big Muddy that has
accomplished this result. The josephine
and thus far has made the best record.

the balance on time. with per cent. annual

the option for two years for as much land as
they may purchase, at the same price, by pay

increases with settlement. it is safe to say
that at the end of the two years the reserved

profit to pay for the original purchase.

The event created great interest in the

out almost en- masse to welcome the
advent of the State officers and witness
their installation in their new quarters.
OF course the occasion was marked by a
proper modicum Of cannonading, music
by the band and oratorical display.
We heartily congratulate our Baton

its possession may yield to them all the

that is, u simple statement that the body
had met and selected Mr.. Acklen rs its
nominee. The Calcaseu Echo adds to .

lieves the nomination good and "one
that will give satisfaction to the true
Democrats Of our district" while the

The Sheriff OF Grant parish used the
lash upon prisoners who were discovered
in an attempt to escape from Jail, the
punishment being designed to compel
the cnlprits to give up file they had
employed in removing their shackles
The Colfax Chronicle very properly con
dennis this proceeding, and says:
The law provides a punishment for jail
breaking. and while it makes it the duty o1
the officers to see to the safe keeping OF
prisoners. it does not allow them to intiicl
punishment. and when they do it they arc
transgressing their authority.
