The Butte City Miner Of a recent date
has the following: Sheriff Reinhart of
Be%averhead County was in the city yester-
day, having returned from Warm Springs,
where he committed to the Insane Asylum
the notorious character, Madame Rafello.
The history Of this woman is well known
to old Montanians. 1t is said that 25 years
ago she moved in the most refined social
circles of California, but her career in
Montana has been one continuous saturna.
liza Of turbulent %carousal and law-break-
ing. 1t has been estimated that prosecu-
tons and legal proceedings resulting from
her violations Of law have cost Deer Lodge
County $40, 900, Missoula County $40, 900,
Beaverhead County S15, 900, and Lewis
and Clarke County 5000. Last month
she was committed to the Beaverhead
County Jail by a Dillon magistrate, on
conviction of being drunk and disorderly.
Soon after her imprisonment she became
demented, and in a fit of insane frenzy,
attempted suicide by cutting her throat
with a ease knife. Her condition is such
that it is thought the Territory will soon
be relieved by her death Of the burden Of
her maintenance,

A Hint to Travellers.

pf the oldest, largest and best companies
p the world, and its name is now a house
eold word throughout America. 1t has
tchieved success by enterprise and fair
leallng, and is as remarkable for the n
%essential as the other. 1t has paid more
Nan $4,000 accident claims, amounting to
Pver S4,S5O,00 and the entire list printed
N a compact form would make a vol
pme OF 1000 pages. A general accident
Pollcy secures cash indemnity in case of &C.
cident-the principal sum if the injury is
Eatai, or a weekly payment if the injury
Tholly disables the insured from labor or
business. The cost is very small, no
medical examination is required, and any
authorized agent will write a policy in a

eent po~licy-holders now average over
s2'oOO a day. The business of the COM
OF this coast is simply enormous. A.

Nevada Western Railway Company.
California Central Railway, Nevada Di-

Railroad Composition.

M
Inc Salt Lake Chronicle says matters
@te taking such a shape that the Union
racifc Railroad Company can hardly avoid
.he construction Of an independent line
ron ogden, or some other point in Utah,
70 The Pacific Coast. In a few months the
pehver d Rio Grande Utah line will be
completed to Ogden, and the traffic ar.
.ahgements having been made between
tais line and the Burlington to run the
BUSINESS from the latter road over the new
route, the Burlington will have q through
me to California, independent OF the
ohion Pacific, and the Central Pacific will
no longer need to depend upon the Union
use the new Denver & Rio Grande route.
lhis will compel the Union Pacific, il 1t
means to meet the competition Of the Cen.
.fei and other new Pacific lines, to extend
1Is line either from Ogden, or some other
possible.

Electric Motors In Mines.

A novel application Of the electrical
transmission Of power has been made at
the Trafalgar Galleries, Forest Of Dean,
England. A pump in the underground
workings is driven by an electric motor,
the current, generated by . dynamo ma
chine at the surface, being led down the
shaft and along the workings q distance OF
500 yards. The drainage water OF the deep
workings IL raised by the electric pump
lis feet vertically, and forced through 500
Yards Of piping to the bottom OF the shaft,
whence ii Is raised by steam pumps to the
surface Of the ground. The working Of the
electric pump is said to be very satisfao-
tory.

The Nevada Central.

A correspondent Of the Battle Mountain
Messenger writes that the falling off of
business at such mining camps as Lewis,
Kingston, Grantsville, Gold Park and Bel
mont, appears to have diminished the in
come and expenses Of operating the Ne
vada Central Railroad. The annual report
of superintendent Dunn to the Secretary
of State shows that the gross receipts for
the year 1882 were only S110, 440 OF. All
the expenses appear to be classed under
the head Of operating expenses and
amounted to 500, 7OS 80. The net profit is
stated at S12,7 31 II, which sum is less
than the taxes of 1882. The annual inter-
est on 81 900, 900, first mortgage construc-
ton bonds, is $50, 900.

More Houses Needed.

1t is generally conceded that among the
scarce things in this city, says the Salt
Lake Chronicle. houses to rent are the
soaroest, 40 to speak. You cannot get one
for love or money. without you know OF q
family that Is going to move out, then you
send one member OF your family to sit on
the doorstep, while the others must be
scattered among the real estate agents and
the owner OF the house. II any one comes
looking for the house, your memoer on
the doorstep politely informs the caller
that the house was engaged by you q
month before the other party moved out.
But this will be overcome in time.

The Virginia City Footlight has inter-
viewed may members of the Miners Union,
out Of employment, upon the subject of =
reduction Of wages, and not one Of them is
willing to go under ground for less than
standard wages, and none of the many
will submit to any reduction whatever
from the present compensation. They
say. and they certainly ought to know,
that no one can tell whether there is any
ore on the upper levels that would pay for
extraction at So, and not at 81 q day. In
our opinion there can not be any great
bodies OF ore above the tunnel level, the
working of which will depend on the
margin of 81 a day in the pay Of miners.
The miners will be very foolish if they
allow themselves to be ~bull-dosed, for the
next thing they know they will be out
down to So a day.

One Man Knocks Another Down the
River Bank and Shoots Him
as He Rolls.
A River Planter Sets an Example
Two Young Men Arrested for
Opium-SmOking.

Last Sunday night about IL o'clock a
darky called at the stationhouse armed
with double-barreled shotgun, powder
horn and pouch Of bullets, and said he had
been hunted for three days for his life and
wanted to deliver himself up TO the au-
,thorities. He said further that he had
shot another darky named Henry Haw-
kins, who interfered with him in his family
affairs. He was very kindly accommo-
dated with a strong cell and plenty of
company, and was further obliged with a
trial yesterday morning, his bail being
kindly fixed at an amount beyond his
capacity to give.
A warrant was sworn ont against the
darky, who gave his name as Adam
Hawkins, and the case came up before
Justice Quigley yesterday morning. The
witnesses were all on Hawkins's side, and
swore TO state of facts which made it APP
pear that the action OF the prisoner had
been of the most fiendish description and
utterly unprovoked. Their testimony was
that Adams met Hawkins on the river
bank, opposite Brown x Jones's coal
fleet, knocked him over the head with a
pistol, showed him over the bluff, and as
he was rolling down shot him twice in the
body. The bullets entered either side,
above the waist. Adams was sent TO Jail
for trial before the Criminal Court in de-
fault of $500 bail
His story is that Hawkins has been in
the habit of visiting his cabin, which is
about 100 yards from the river, during his
absence at work on the coal feet, and that
he has frequently boasted of causing Ad-
ans wife to be untrue to him. Finally
he had a quarrel with her on this account
and she left him. He told Hawkins of it
when he met him last Friday evening,
and Hawkins drew a knife on him. Then
he fired, as he claims, in defense of his own
life
