Henry Melot, who has just arrived
at Butte from the Ceur dAlene

praises of the new mines, and will
return there in short time with a
stock of goods and engage in bust
ness.

Ben Hogan.

Last evening Ben Hogan was in
the sanctum, when the subject of
prize fighting was introduced. Mr..
Hogan stated that he had particip.
ated In four desperate prize fights,
and putting his hand to his mouth
drew out q handful Of teeth, re-
marking that he had lost his
natural molars In the ring. The last
fight he had was in 1873, with Tom
Allen, for the championship Of
America. Some of the Independent
staff seemed to be little skeptical
regarding Mr.. Hogsn's prowess, and
one of them remarked he could not
conceive how go small a man could
have been able to contend
for the championship of America.
At once the memory of olden
days seemed to come over Mr..
Hogan with Over-mastering power
His eyes flashed as he threw off his
coat and took position In the middle
of the eanctum. To illustrate his
power he tapped the chief on the
jugular vein with his open hand.
when the latter sunk in.o his chair
as If struck by lightning.
snow get up," said the pugilist,
and will show you how I hit with
my right duke. This kind of exercise
is gOOdsfor digestion. 'tsExcuse me, :"
gasped the editor, 81 would as soon
be kicked by mule"
Then again throw wing himself into
an aggressive attitude he wheeled
upon the local, when the latter with
cry of alarm crept under the table
and Hogan was master of the situa-
ton. No further proof was needed
OF his prOwess by the INDEPENDENT
staff. Mr.. Hogan says that the
manly art has been Of considerable
service to him while conducting his
meetings. On one or two occasions
lie has been forced to eject disturs
bers Of the peace, but he has never
had but one ouch experience in any
one place. Frem the illustrations
afforded last evening the editors of
the Independent are thoroughly
convinced Of the truth of the state
ment, and but for the fact that they
would regret to withdraw him from
the laudable work in which he is
now engaged, they would be tempt
ed to offer him the position of fight
ing editor on the Independent.-
Helena Independent.

The French and Chinese

LONDON, October IA dispatch
from Dongola says that two of Mudir's
spies, from Khartoum via Kordofan, re-
port that Mahdi is sending two large
armies to attack Dongola, one coming
across the desert and the other along the
Nile.
A Paris correspondent of the Daily
Telegraph believes that China u week
ago made the following proposition to
Premier Ferry through the American
government. The Chinese force will
withdraw from Tonquin. Kelung will
be temporarily occupied by the French.
LONDON, October ia correspond
ent of the Times telegraphs that the
news Of the defeat of Admiral Lespes
and the French fleet at Tam-Sui is con
firmed. The Chinese, by hiding in the
brush-wood, suffered some six hundred
of the French force to land and come
within easy range of their guns before
they appeared. The Chinese general,
Tso, then led the attack upon the ear of
the French and the troops became panic
stricken. The Chinese killed seventy
men and captured one gun. They also
beheaded twenty-five French corpses,
but desisted from that horrible work
upon protest of the British consul. The
Chinese lost 200 killed and wounded.
The fighting lasted five hours, at the end
Of which time the French returned
to their ships.
SHANGHAI, October IA c%orrespon-
dent Of the Times reports a riot at Oen-
chow October 9Th, when the mot bnrned
the missionaries house and the custom
house records. The English consulate
was not hurt. No lives were lost.
Quiet is restored. The correspondent
adds: Ferry objected to the last sug-
gestion of the king as to why China
could not make a proposition directly to
him.
BERLIN, October pa note publish
ed, evidently from the Chinese lega-
ton, repelling the Grenth charges
regarding the Tenstian treaty, points
| out that Captain Fourier fails to state
whether he consented to the erasures in
that treaty or not. The note attached
to the treaty, and il is said to be in
| Lihung's handwriting, states that Capt.
| Fournier himself erased two paragraphs
in the treaty.

Beef and Politics.

CHICAGO, October s.-Gov. John
Schuyler Crosby, Of Montana, reached
lhls city this morning en- route TO New
York, Where he will take an active part
IN the campaign for Blaine and Logan.
Being asked regarding matters and
things in Montana, Gov. Crosby said
the cattle and mining interests there are
most prosperous; that the shipments of
silver, lead and copper were never SO
large as at present that about 100, 900
head OF improved breeds of cattle had
been brought into Montana the last
year from the states and from Europe
TOR breeding purposes: that the seasons
shipments of beet cattle to eastern mar
kets have already commenced, and will
amount to about $4,000 head in the ay-
gregate. The total number of cattle
now in the territory is estimated at not
less than 100000. The best ranges are
being taken up and stocked, and within
a year there will be very few left at any
price. Gov. Crosby, speaking of the
political situation, says that while the
territory has been heretofore democratic,
the chances are that in November the
vote for a delegate to congress will be
very close between the two opposing
candidates.
