FarcHTFuL CRIME.
r. n ,zsrtasou Murdered, Robbed ana ma
Kindly Burned, Near Glendale.

.Isbn a. Jessraag formerly lived In Helena
ard vas strongly suspected Of completely In
the murder Of John DEM in that city some
tve or three years ago. He was saosequens
~ convicted Of stealing cattle and sentenceu
TO ass years in the Penitent.ary. de as
arsssd his guard while working OUTSIDE tns
isclossre, and escaped, was recaptureo ps
SASriG Rel nhard ut Glen Station and put In
the pepitentiary again. he was Subsequent
" pardoned and has since been in the vicini-
ty OF Glendale and wunderlich's, passing
latterly under the assumed name OF oharics
Merrill. He comes Of good family, having
rela.ivss In high standing in st. Paul or Min
peapolis, but he Is bad man.
On Saturday, February Sd, Jessrang' 01toS
Charles Merrill, registered at the Avery
House, Glendale. On Sunday V. III. David
son registered at the Avery House ana
showed Emile Browne 81 ,3ae in currency,
and remarked that he didn't have to work al
the mines. The same day Jessrang got soms
powder and percussion caps In Glendale ana
had Navy leap revolverl on him. On Taes-
day Jessrang and Davidson left Glendais To-
getAer.. Wednesday morning Jessrang re-
turned with his feet frozen, and told contra
dictoyy stories as to where he had been. He
said Davidson had gone to Butte. Andrew
NJ aaisoa, who had known Jessrang In the
Peuitentisry, suspected foul play and WITH
another man started toward Wunderlich's,
where Jessrang In one story said he had been.
Near the junction of Canon Creek and h'G
HoEs river, Off at one side OF the road, they
found the ashes OF fire and among the
ashes teeth, pieces of the bones and clothing
Of Davidson. The trail to the fire was
smearea with blood and showed bleeding
body had been dragged over it. Undoubted-
ly Davidson was shot, robbed, dragged to the
brush, aud his body burned to prevent idep-
tiaessioa, or perhaps discovery. Jessrang
was Immediately arrested and summary
hanging so loudly threatened that the officers
started to take JessraBg to Dillea. At Mel
rose, seven miles below, o crowd assembled,
crying Chang him; hang him" He was
rushed to the water tank, rope slipped
around his neck and Jessrang was hoisted UP
with a will. LET him down TO confess"
was cried and he was lowered. He denied
the murder, but admitted he robbed the body
after Davidson froze TO death. He was run
up and lowered five times, but persisted in
this story aad created so much doubt in the
minds OF his wouid-be executioasrs that they
finally retained him TO the officer who took
him to Dillon and jailed him. This is one Of
the most fiendish crimes ever perpstrsrea In
the Territory and will doubtless be atened IN
the execution of Jessrang.

ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
The Incandesceut Light FOR Domestic Use 10
be introduced In Montana.

Mr.. II. w. Cole, the electrician who has
put In die Brush electric light plants IN Salt
Lake, Ogden, Butte, and Helena was in town
Monday en- route east. The Brush light IL
more especially designed for street and store
purposrs. and, SO far, where the power Is
sufficient, has, we believe, given very good
satisfaction. But its lights are large and ex-
peusiye and have not that pure white light
which b given by the incandescent lamps OF
Edison and Masime. We Relieve the cost OF
n light BIZ Butte IN eighty cents per night,
which makes il quite expensive. Although
the6ncandescent light has been Experimental
upoh for years by the best electricians and
invsntors It did not until within the past
seven month REACH condition where Its
adaptation TO practical uses was sufficiently
advanced to warrant the placing OF. eXpen-
sive plants ana trial OF the system In gener:,
al use. The divisibility, measurement, and
din.inution of the current at will have ut
length been mastered and In number OF
cities the iucandeScent system Is being rapid
Iy aaiopted There are before the public at
present two systems, Edisons and Maximes,
of nearly equal merit. They possess many
advantages for houses use. Tho light IL SIX
. teen candle power. medium coal oil lamp
has about fvs-candle power. Mr., Cole has
been working up the project OF introducing
the light In Helena and has guaranteed each
light shall no: cost 10 exceed II cents pei
hour. An advantage of their SYSTEM IN that
the plants are manufactured so that from
City lights up can be supplied, the lesser
number costing bfit little m ore proporsinn
ateIy than the larger, and rendering 1t avail
able In small towns NJ we'll as large. Anothe'
advantage Is that the current generated and
transmitted IL very low power so that daa
