Threatened Indian Troubles.

A telegram received at department
headquarters at st. Paul a few days
ago from Colonel Wiikin, command
ing at Fort Keog!l, states that Gov
ernor Crosby has t~elegraphed from
Helena that H. s. Back, a prominent
citizen of 3%lendive, fears trouble be-
tween the Catfish band of Sioux and
stockmen, as six hundred Indians
were reported to be marching toward
the Little Missouri. Governor
CROSBY asked that the military afford
such protection as the situation may
de nand, and that the authorities at
Fort Buford be communicated with
for particulars. In reply to Colonel
wilkins request for instructions,
General Terry notified him that in
the absence of definite information
no action would be taken, but di-
rected that the matter be immedi-
ately Investigated with a view to
prompt action.-Independent, Octo.

Timber Culture Decisions.

The following are some recent de-
cisions by the Commissioner of the
General Land Office:
Cultivation by leaving and permi4-
ting a growth of grass or weeds
around young trees, when it will in
sure their protection and growth
better than the customary cultivation
by blowing, ETC., is deemed a COM
pliance with the timber culture law.
Prospective inability of a timber
culture claimant to prove up, gives
no rights to 4 contestant.
Timber culture entries should be
made npon vacant unimproved land,
not upon laud covered by the vaiua-
ble improvements of another, and in
the possession of another.
A party who, after filing a pre-
emption declaratOry statement. re-
linquishes and makes a HON estead
entry, valves his right under the
filing, and it another party has in the
meantime filed a declaratory state

Er,m the nailyof Wedne sday
Renshaw Opera House,

Notwithstanding the horrible con-
dltion of the streets, and the threat
ening weather a good house greeted
the Jay Rial company last evening.
East Lynne has been presented on
Butte boards before, but it is no dis
arrangement to other theatrical COM
panies who have visited this city to
say that it has never been played to
a Butte audience IS it was played
last evening. Louise Rial as Lady
Isabel and Madam Vine was the
central figure in the play. Her con-
ception and delineation of the char
acters evidenced the true artistic and
soulful woman. In every instance
in which all the finer, higher and
nobler feelings of the devoted, SELL
sacrificing wife and the loving,
heart-broken mother were called
forth Miss Rial proved herself MS
tress of the situations and elected the
just encomiun.s of the audience.
Eyes that for years have been un-
USED to tears were not strangers to
them last night. Miss Rial was ably
supported by MI. Winter in the very
difficult role of Archibald Carlyle,
his fine presence and voice heighten-
ing the effect of his fine acting. Miss
Minnie Phelps sustained the not
very enviable character of Barbara
Hare with marked faithfulness to it,
disagreeable %exactions. Miss Jennie
Mcclellan, as Cornelia, relieved the
play of its seriousness by her inimi-
table droll, ries and kept the audience
In good humor whea Miss Rial per-
mitted it to lose sight of her own
ideal suffering. MI. Dufield as the
polished, gentlemanly villain, Sir
Francis Levison, filled the full meas
ure of his task and gave another evil
dence of his superior acting. All of
the other performers acquitted them
selves creditably. The company as a
Whole is the best that has ever ap-
peared in Butte and our theatre goers
will miss an intellectual treat if they
fail to see the Jay Rial Combination.
Tonight will be presented the Gel
ebrated play of the Ticket-of-Leave
Man. This play is replete with
thrilling dramatic situations, and af-
fords a fine scope for artistic acting.
Miss Rial will appear as May Ed.
in which character she has
received the unstinted praise of East
ern dramatic critics. Butte theatre
goers should not fail to witness it.

We forgot to inquire if the buttons

company, and others testified concern
ing their respective industries.
Father Mcdonald. of Manchester.
disputed the right of Congressional
committee to come into New Hamp-
shire and inquire into the affairs of
the people. senator Blair replied that
the citizens of New Hampshire were
citizens Of the United States, and
Congress surely had the power to
send its committees anywhere within
the United States to gather infOrma-
ton needed by either house. The
committee had no desire for cOmpul-
sorry testimony, but if any one knew
OF any grievances OF the working
people, they would like him to state
them. Father Mcdonald then COM
planned that the tenement houses
were badly constructed, being too hot
in summer and not properly heated
in winter. and that no supervision
was exercised over the food supplied
by the boarding house keepers. which
were often very bad.

It is seldom in these fertile days OF
fashion that any article of a lady's
apparel obtains such a strong hold
upon popular favor as the
JERSEY.
1t is true it took its name from the
great English beauty, and that it re.
ceived, therefore, the bewitchirg and
aesthetic smile of her approval; bnt
this has had little to do with its pop.
ularity, for though the beauty and
grace Of the Lilly" may be az fair
as the tints of the rainbow, yet there
are some points in her character that
do not commend her to the modest,
sensible women of America. It is
also true-or satd to be-that her
aged ma will attend her in the future
on her starring tours through this
country but as a leading daily recent
ly observed very pertinent'y--"It's
too late to lock the stable door after
the horse has been stolen" No, the
popularity of the Jersey is due wholly
to it's own beauty and utility. We
are in receipt of several new styles
for both ladies and misses and this is
the business part of the story. SINE
of them are much more elegant than
previous lots being deliberately braid
ed.
We could ask you with a nue.,
better grace to call and look at these
and the many other new things if
we were sure you would not be
SUBMERGED IN MUD
before reaching here. We honestly
~believe-and you do too-that there
is not another city in the American
Union of the population, wealth and
intelligence that Butte possesses,
that hasn't substantial street-cross-
ings at the intersection of all public
thoroughfal es We have none, and
it is simply a disgrace. tits not only
an impeachment to business, but it is
a blight and stain upon every evil
dence of public improvement that We
have reared in our midst. It is the
natural surroundings of a wood camp
and beneath the dignity of even a
mining camp-which Butte ceased
to be long ago and she is to-day the
great mining city Of the world; it
the wheels Of every branch of
trade and is a personal affront to our
wives, mothers, sisters, sweet-hearts,
cousins, aunts and ever other lady in
the town. What is the way out of
al this mud? It is said that there j
no money in the city treasury to lay
the crossings, and that council has
authority to negotiate a loan. If
this he true we are willing to do our
part in this much-needed
PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT,
and as an earnest will subscribe a lib
eral amount if a sufficient sum can be
obtained to place the crossings where
they are even most needed. Who is
.ublic-spirited enough to move ener-
.yetically in this matter:
Very respectfully,
