As result Of the recent negotiations
between Mr.. John Noyes and the OH
eials of the u. 4 y. road We are author
ized to announce that arrangements
have bsen perfected by which the
amplest facilities are and viii b olIer:d
to all shippers. Mr.. Noyes has agreed
with the railroad company to cell ct .
maximum Of 30 per front foot, to ship
:'ey only, all lots in thu. Railroad Addi-
ton comprised in blocks one, eight,
nine, sixteen and seventeen, fronting
southwest on the side track.
This measure IL intended for the pro-
lection Of purchasers, and to foster the
building Of warehouses and the con-
struction Of platforms along the side
trick which IL now being built to the
northeast.
1t seems likely now from the best In
formation that the Utah & Northern
road will he completed to Deer Lodge
by July Let, without any great degree
Of difficulty. Mr.. Blickensderfer was in
Butte Sunday ~ . guest Of Geo. w.
Irwin, ESQ.,, and while nothing was
said by him especially, there is little
doubt that II instructed to complete the
Deer Lodge branch in June, Mr.. Blick-
ensderfer can aud will do 80.
It IL no news in railroad circles that
the rails for the Northern Pacific are
now, as they always have been, shipped
via the mouth of the Columbia River,
Portland and Lake Pen d'Oreille, and
that none Of them are bling brought
over the u. p. and U. 4 N. There Is no
doubt that all negotiations between the
L. p and \. p. roads are of, including
the three rail arrangement Of which SO
much was said. Rails for the single
track narrow gauge to Deer Lodge are
now being unloaded at Silver Bow.

In soae mising dntricts this might
b supposed to refer 90 we'll salted
prospect. Such b not the ease. Under
this bead the Dillon 1+i6ssse Of last
week gives the particular Of . startling
adventure in which figured . man, .
dog, . boy, . eve lamb and . wild ct.
1t the ranch Of Mr.. william Bryan, ON
the Big Hole.
There wasa flock Of sheep feeding by
moonlight, - beautiful pastoral sight
a. can be imagined. The owner sat in
his comfortable home some distance of,
when his attention was attracted by the
musical barking Of his old dog Tray.
Tray was more accustomed to doing by
the fire than barking even at the moon.
Besides no was getting old, and his jsws
were cold, his gums t0othless. Trays
bark was consequently ever 80 much
worse than his bite, in fact he didn't
have any bite 10 speak OF, having beeh
long accustomed to Icing fed spoon vic
tuals. So the heod of the household
was not seriously alarmed ut first. After
awhile, however, as the barking had
sub,idetl into low prolonged growl,
and missing his three-year-old son,
the head Of the family sailed
forth and 10, there was war in the sheep
fold. Hurrying to the scene a spectac lie
met his eyes which astonished them not
less than does the sea serpent the casual
sea bather. The eve lamb of the field
with outstretched tail, and furiously
bleating, stood in the middle of the field,
firmly grasping the tail ofthe struggling
victim stood . young mountain lion or
Wild cat, with outstreched tail and fl-
riously purring. Firmly grasping the
tail Of the aforesaid wild cat stood old
dog Tray, with outstretcl,cd tail and fu-
riously growing. Last but not least
stood the noble but three-year-old boy,
firmly gra>ping the tail Of old dog Tray
and furiously crying. Such a spectacle
could he seen no where save in the val
leys of our own beautiful Montana. I'm
der such severe pressure something had
to give way, and as the startled parent
rushed to the rescue there was sudden
cracking sound and the scene changed.
The tail of the eve lamb had broken off
short, with consequences which can only
he imagined. The cat executed a SOM
ersault backwards and disappeared in
the woods uttering plaiDtive lamenta-
tons. The dog fell backwards and
died, of broken heart. The noble boy
fell weeping on the neck Of the faithful
hound, and lastly, on reaching the scene
the anxious father found that his eve
lamb whose fleece formerly rivalled the
snow, had turned black as Niger min
strel fr~m fright.

Asa Covell's Artesian Well.
Scotland Citizen.

Asa Covell is the proprietor of n genu-
inc high.rolling artesian WELL About a
week ago he contracted to have we'll
bored on his farm near Memo, and the
work was commenced. The diameter of
the we'll is twenty inches and at the
depth of fifty feet a vein was struck and
in few moments the water commenced
flowing from the mouth of the well the
full size of the bore and has continued to
flow steady ever since. The curbing of
the we'll was raised two feet above the
surface and over this the water pours in
a vast stream. DR.. Morgan returned
from Memo this morning and says that
he visited the well and that it is the
most extraordinary flow of water that he
has ever seen. 1t comes in strong
even current and gives evidence of being
permanent. The doctor says the water
is OF excellent quality, and is an unques.
TONED bonanza for a stock farm. Here
is strong encouragement for those who
have been agitating an arsesian we'll ex.
pertinent in Scotland. Good flowing
wells have been obtained at Yankton at
a reasonable depth, and now this remark.
able find within twelve miles should en-.
courage our citizens to test the matte,
here. Our opinion is that success is Ger.
tain and at so small an outlay that the
matter of expense should not stand in
the way of trying the experiment. Let
those who have interested themselves ir
this matter keep at it until success
crowns their efforts.

Obstructive Delure in New York.

New York, Sept. 24.-The storm of
wind and rain which broke over the city
Thursday evening has been very severe
one. but thus far 10 damages has been
reported, except along the river front,
where some cellars were flooded by the
unusually high tides. The rainfall up
to the present time is over five inches,
and the storm still continues. The rain is
coming down in torrenta. Many streets
in Jersey City and Hoboken are flooded
by the heavy rains. In the latter city
the section known as the meadow dis
trict" is completely submerged, the resi-
dents being compelled to use boats and
improvised RATS to go to and from their
homes. The accumulated water burst
the sewers on the Ravine road at the
foot of the hill, and it will cost several
thousand dollars to repair the pipes and
repave the street. The paths of
Hamilton square, Jersey City, were al-
most washed out of existence. 1t is re-
ported from Boundbrook that the water
there has risen so high as to stop the
running of trains on the Lehigh Valley
railway. In the low-lying districts OF
Brooklyn streams of muddy water are
running through the streets, cellars are
flooded, and the damage to property is
heavy.

the road would run. They are prepared
to form company to take the prelimi-
nary steps and let contracts for grading

Always a Hurry.

Sorrows." On the contrary the woman

is done slowly or deliberately. Evely-
thing in the hottest possible hurry, her

possible pitch. She dashes about the
house, slams doors, and bolts her TODD
in half the time that more sober people
take to eat theirs. With her trif1es are

capable OF nttering q soft sound; her
temper is all atire ut Il moments notice:
her adjectives are all superlatives, and
sometimes she is ready to weep because
she has no bigger and more expressive
superlatives to use. Her energy, If prop.

When will all this end? We answer

the pace that kills; it is this pace which
renders nervous prostration one Of the
most prolific diseases of the day. Let

A Horrible wife Murder.

Manitowoc, Wis.,, Sept. 22.-As brutal
murder as ever occurred in the state of
Wisconsin took place here last evening.
Geo. Rathsack, Pole living in the
fourth ward, split his wife's head open
with an axe without the least prOvoca-
tion, and then fed. The story of the
crime is in substance as follows: Rath-
sack, who is worthless, drunken vaga-
bond, was sitting in his home with his
mother, wife and three little children be-
tween and 8 O'Clock last evening,
engaged in whetting an axe. When
asked by his wife what he was sharpen
ing it for, he replied that it was for her.
She became frightened and tried to rush
past him for the door, but before she
reached it he felled her with a blow from
the axe, sinking the blade in the crown
of her head nearly to the eye. He then
gave her another blow after she was
down, cutting cash nearly as deep as
the fist. at right angles with it. Seeing
that his work was complete, he then
rified her pockets of what money she
had, amounting to about SIS, put out
the light and fed. His mother. who was
silent spectator, told him to go quickly
before she gave the alarm. No trace Of
him has yeti been found, although offic-
ers and men were out all night in pursuit
OF him. Rathsack seldom worked, and
the sole occupation of himself and moth
er was to beat his poor wife and take
from her the money she had earned
washing to support the family. 1t has
been no uncommon thing for several
years for him and his mother to whip
his wife, and take from her the proceeds
of hard days toll, and then get drunk
together, driving her from the house to
seek shelter where she best could find it.
The murder last night was the result of
her not giving him money enough to buy
whisky. A party has been organized to
hang the brute if caught.
