More Telephones.

A new telephone company is being formed in
Honolulu under the name of the Mutual Telephone
Company. The new company is to consist of 2,O09

under h~SS6chRY9E9ST appSMs as if he
had. I was EfsssttsxI q much as his
former wife was, and had two children.
If Quirk says there are three he is a liar.
He treated me brutally in San Frncisco.
Sometimes / only saw him for three hours
or so at night, or not at all, so | got tired
and packed up my things. l will leave on
the Falkinburg this afternoon, with my two
children.
oUIRK's ARREST.
In the afternoon Freeman swOre out
a warrant against Quirk, who was arrested
and placed in the station house, where he
awaits his trial.
FREEMAN'S DIsAPPEARANCE.
Up to IA late hour of the night no tidings
could be obtained of Freeman's where
abeuts, and it is generally surmised that he
has left Honolulu for San Francisco in the
Falkinburg in company with Molly Hays.
Quirk appeared in Court Thursday morn
ing at 9 O'Clock, on a charge Of assault with a
pistol. He expressed general regret at his share
in the proceedings above recorded, and appeared
detected and down-hearted The case was re-
manded, on the application of Mr.. j. Russell,
who appeared for Quirk, till Saturday, bail
being allowed in the sum of $3.50. Messrs. j.
DOdd and c. f. Williams volunteered as bonds
men, and were duly accepted, so that Quirk is
now out on bail.
There is no doubt that Freeman left the city
in company with Molly Hays, ON the Falkin-
burg, as he has not been seen since 2 O'Clock
Thursday. As our files will be- sent forward to
the Coast by the HaDkow this afternoon, there is
no doubt that some interest in the affair will DO
created i'll San Francisco, and that Freeman and
Hays will have a warm. reception on their arri-
val, an account of which We hope shortly to
place before our readers.

Cloud Burst at Butte.

On Saturday last the gulches about
Summit Valley were visited by a cloud
burst, and a column Of water of five feet
breast was precipitated upon Butte.
East Park, Arizona, and other streets of
the city were engulfed, foundations of
buildings were washed away, wood and
timber sent adrift, a large quantity of
rich tailings at the old Lexington mill
went down stream, and considerable
damage inflicted. For some minutes
fears were entertained that parts Of the
Silver City would be wholly destroyed,
but fortunately the storm was of short
duration, and the flood subsidized as quick
ly as it came. In all, some thousands of
dollars damage was sustained.

His Only Weak Point.

One Of those good, old-fashioned faith
ers-born and reared IN a farm, but
willing to see his children live an easier
life-came down to "York' the other
day to see about getting his son Moses
into a bank. He went to q friend, and
the friend sent him to the cashier, and
the cashier said:
us your 0 quick at figures"
,,Tolerable quick
us he ambitious? ?"
Eyes; he wants to get on.o
lis he a hard workerW
"Well, Moses kin NOW three acres of
grass per day"
"Why does he prefer a bank to q
s%tore??n
IT swan. / never asked him why,
butt guess it's because he thinks there's
a better chance to climb up. Moses is
right on the climb.''
He is perfectly honest, of course"
"Well, now, that's the only weak
point Moses has got, and / was going to
say to you if you took him in that If you
keep a wire fence between him and any
money lying around, and if you have a
rule agin boss trading, and if you don't
allow shaking dice or ca~rd-playing, and
if he keeps sober, Moses will make one
of the most tremendous bankers this
country ever saw!o

the suspicious officers observed that that
he had numerous visitors in his resi-

times without finding the whisky
which, it was clear, the company was

burner, the beverage ran from the pipe,
which had been connected with a bar

Fort Macleod Gazette Items.

A newspaper was to have been started
at Medicine Hat on or about the 1stinst.
About five hundred calves were brand
ed this spring at Pincher creek. A few
cattle died during the March storm,
principally old cows.
Matt Dunn passed through here en-
route to the north on the 9th, with a
band of 800 steers. The band is for the
government and syndicate.
The grain throughout the country is
looking fine. Those who have any
doubt on the subject will have it dispell-
ed by viewing the ranches in this vic
nifty
The police gave a grand ball On Mon
day evening. The Lieut. Governor very
kindly attended for a short time. The
supper wa served at Kamoose's and we
venture to say there has never been a
better Il got up in Macleod.
Joe Healy and Dick Kennefick have
struck out for the location ofthe formers
hidden treasure. Joe claims to have
struck it pretty rich; he has been pros
pecting for a number of years and with
great determination, and we trust that
his expectations may be fully realized
and a bonanza be the result of this trip.
The Northwestern Coal and Nayiga-
ton Co. S steamer, which was launched
at Medicine Hat the other day, was ia
ken up stream there for fifty-five min
utes and made five miles and a half.
Her only fault is that her pump is too
small, not being able to keep uythe sup
ply Of water. It is expected that this
boat will make half a dozen trips to the
Coal Banks this summer. The boat
built at the Coal Banks will make about
one trip. This company will put up
eight or ten buildings in the new town,
and will have a lumber yard. They will
bring freight to Macleod next summer
by the river. This is enterprise of the
kind, which is going to help us
all. We trust that all their plans will
be successful.

ANIMALS.

Numerous complaints are being made
by tEose who have horses running out
on the range that some parties have
turned out a number of scabby horses,
and they are liable to inocculate all 9th
ers with which they come in contact.
The law is very clear in these cases, and
the parties turning such animals upon
the public ranges should be punished to
the fullest extent, as their action entails
a serious loss and inconvenience on 9TH
ers. Article w., section Is, of the Re
vised Statutes Of Montana is referred to
for the benefit Of those who suffer from
this criminal carelessness. 1t reads as
follows:
Sec. Is. IT shall be unlawful for the
owner or owners, or for any person Or
persons having in charge any horse,
mule, ass, or horned cattle affected with
any contagious disease, to allow said dis
eased animal or animals to run on the
public range. All animals so affected
with contagious disease shall be at once
removed by the owner or owners there
OF, or the person or persons in charge Of
the same, from the public range to some
secur inside enclosure, where contact
with other animals by reaching over or
through the fence Of said enclosure will
be impossible, or shall be strictly herded
six miles away from any farm, or from
any other stock running at large or be-
ing herded. Every person who shall
knowingly neglect or refuse to remove,
or so enclose, or herd away, from farms
or other stock, such diseased animals af-
fected with contagious disease, shall be Ii
able to be arrested, and on conviction be-
fore any court of competent jurisdiction,
shall be fined in any sum not less than
fifty dollars, nor more than five hundred
dollars, and shall also be liable for dam
ages to the party or parties injured by
such diseased animals running at large,
after having notice of their diseased
condition: Provided, That this section
section shall not be construed as to pre-
vent owners of diseased animals from
travelling we the main thoroughfares
