When a month ago 1t was propose d to start
roller skating rink here, involviD an out
lay Of few hundred dollars, the seedy old
Muldoons of the burg shook their wise
knowledge boxes and regretted that Preston
& Woodward should throw away their
money so foolishy. But they fitted up a
little rink and were, probably ION velvet
in a week. Then jerks, Harr' - Il Co. pre-
posed To build one that has probably cost
$4,000 IL is 50xl00 feet, wit b offices, ladies
waiting room, terraced gal ery and roof
like a union depot. II opened Saturday
night with the Deer Lof ige cornet band ia
the orchestra and 800 othe Deer Lodgers on
skates or on the lookout. IL has run day and
night ever since. Ladi es have quit making
calls-"Gone to the stating rink" Dun's
have cease TO call Gone TO the skating
rink" Pedders have left town; their usual
victims are gone TO the skating rink"
Everybody goes, ane good many skate, and
more are trying, AM more will as soon as
more skates can be had Every pair is used

TO "A No. skate ather than miss the oppor-

or whether they like his style or not, he
begins 10 enjoy it; the body sways gracefully
aud easily TO its poise; the wheels carry him
smoothly on by easy effort, and he feels the
exhilaration Of pleasant exercise and CHEEKY

Please Bear In Mind.

You who are indebted TO the New NORTH
WEST that quick settlements make long
friends" and we want TO be on the very best
OF terms with our patrons The accounts of
newspapers are not generally so great but
that those indebted can pay them without
Inconvenience, but they aggregate n great
deal and the neglect to pay merely because
they are small makes hard times for the
newspaper man. A ton Of feathers Is as
heavy as a ton OF gold, and If our good
friends will wait in the small amounts due us
we may be able to pay some of our heavy
bills with them. Subscribers who will kind
ly slip greenback in letter addressed TO us
and have the postmaster register 1t, will be
remembered In our prayers and credited on
our books Those who have received bills
for job work or advertising will of course
not hesitate a moment IN remitting after so
polite a request rs the above. IL you have
not the money TO spare just now, don't incon-
venience yourself. but then send 1t along as
soon rs you can conveniently spare it. II

MISSOULA ITEMS.
Oh ildren Burned RaiIread Contract.


A special from Missoula, which we are
compelled to condense, says:
On Saturday morning last at sloan's tie
boom, two miles up the canon, two children
Of Mr.. and Mrs. w. G. Starks-a girl of six
and boy of three years..were burned to
death. There was a smaii cabin and two
tents. Mrs. Starks went out to the tent to
get breakfast leaving the children in bed. 1t
is supposed spark few out Of the stove and
ignited the bed. When discovered the fire
had such Roadway that the children could
not be reached and they were charred until
unacceptable. The Odd Fellows of Mis-
sonia took charge of the funeral.
The skating craze has caught Missoula in
dead earnest: Pail nightly crowded with
merry tumblers.
Winston Bros. & Clark have contracted to
lay all the track on the Missoula Division
and build all the bridges except Marent's, on
which 100 men are working. The contractors
are expected to commence work in few
days; meantime large force of bridge car
penters formerly employed by the railroad
company are idle.

JESSRANG HUNG.


IL has been reported for several days that
Ion against Jessrang, the alleged murderer
and cremator, that Sheriff Reinhard was ap
prehensive and contemplated removing him
TO Deer Lodge Jail for safe keeping.
Probably learning of this, parties in Dillon
concluded to anticipate the transfer and on
"Wednesday night the mob went to the Jail
and hung Jessrang to the dosr. We tels.
graphed to Dillon yesterday and ascertained
that the report was correct, but did not learn
any particulars. The crime was one of the
most diabolical ever perpetrated in Montana
and there does not appear to have been any
doubt that Jessrang perpetrated 1t.

NO MAILS.
Why Mail Service is Suspended on the
Warm Springs and Philipsburg Route.

Why Mail Service is Suspended on the
Warm Springs and Philipsburg Route.
We mentioned last week that it was report
ed Taylor & Co had quit carrying the mails
between Warm Springs and Philipsburg.
This was correct. No mail has gone over the
route this month. Inquiry of postmaster
Girard developed the following: The mail
contract from Warm Springs to Philipsburg
and back, tri-weekly, is let to an eastern man
named Warren at S196 per month. The con-
tract from Philipsburg to New Chicago and
back, tri-weekly, is let to an eastern party
named Campbell, at $50 per month. Mr.. d.
NJ. Taylor was appointed agent for Warren,
and sub-let the contract to his son, John G.
Taylor. Warren, it is stated, did not come
up with his payments. On the 9th of Febru-
airy Taylor asked Z. Girard, postmaster at
Warm Springs to sign contract for one year
on the said route at $500 per month, or he
would discontinue service. Mr.. Grard
promptly declined to do anything of the
kind, it being entire.y outside of his authori-
ty, and Mr. Taylor pulled off his coach. Mr..
Girard telegraphed the situation to the De-
partment. On the 7th Taylor resumed ser
vice. Again on the 18th Mr.. Taylor notified
Mr.. Girard that he had sold all his horses,
stages, ETC., to Allen Pierse, and on the 18th,
Mr.. Pierse notified Mr.. Girard that he dcclin-
ed to carry mails on the route at the price. In
the meantime the Department had written
Mr.. Girard a letter, received just about the
time Pierse bought Taylor out, that if the
original contractor or his agent did not re-
sumo service by March 10th, he should en-
ploy special service at price not to exceed
the original contract price-s196 per month.
The result is, mail for Willow Glen, Leven
goods, Gable and Philipsburg has been ac-
cumulating at Warm Springs since March
LIST, No one would stock the road
when the original contractor is privil-
edged to come on at any time before March
10th and resume service, nor is it likely any
body will take it at that date for an uncer-
tain period. Mr.. Girard is in no manner in
fault in this matter. Mr.. Taylor, has, we
understand, failed, and Mr.. Pierse is not re-
quired to operate mail route unless he
wants to. We are informed, however, that
he is running stages on the New Chicago and
Philipsburg route, and that mails can 90
that way.

DIED.
McKINsTRY-In Butte, March 2, 1883,

McKINSTRY-In Butte, March 2, 1883, Of
pneumonia, Harvey w. McKinstry, aged 80
years.
The remains were brought to Deer Lodge
and funeral services held at st. James
church, at 3 p. m, Saturday, Rev. s. C.
Blackiston officiating. A large concourse of
friends followed the remains to the cemetery
Harvey McKinstry was born in Mt. Carmel,
Ind, and came with his fathers family to
Montana in 1866. He grew to manhood here
and developed sterling qualities of head and
heart, which won, as they deserved, the
warmest esteem and regard of hosts of
friends. Few men possessed more virtues
and fewer faults than Harvey McKinstry,
and the deep bereavement of his relatives is
shared by all who knew him.

Protesting Too Late.

WASHINGTON, March Rev. DIR. Chap
pelle says that had be known or suspected
that Senator Tabor or Mrs. Lizzie McCourt
had gone through the divorce courts, he
would not have officiated at their marriage.
He made what he thought careful investiga-
tion, and If the statement concerning the
divorce is correct, he AYERS he was misin-
formed by the parties concerned. The
Catholic Church does not allow it, clergy to
solemnize marriages in which either party
has been divorced.

Mr. b. Is thoroughly posted on the West Side
service, and has been endeavoring for some
time to get IL better adjusted. The delay Of
thirty hours between Deer Lodge and Butte,
a really atrocious outrage on mail service,
