Rates OF Advertising:

Meager particulars have been re-
ceived of another slaughter of horse
thieves in the Musselshellregion, $50
miles northeast of Helena, Montana,
last week, by the cowboys in pursuit
of stolen horses. A log house was
discovered in the timber on the noun
tain side. 1t was secretly watched a
day or two, during which time several
small parties Of men went and came
some by day others by night, having
in their possession horses evidently
stolen. 1t becoming evident that it
was the horsethieves' rendezvous, the
cowboys congregated and last Mon
day night they crawled up to the
house and attacked. There were IA
horsethieyes about the premises at the
time. Nine were killed and FIVE es-
capped. The cabin was set on fire and
burned. No particulars are yet re-
celved of the fight. Granville Stew
arts cowboys have met with a band
OF thieves at the mouth of the Mus
selshell, and it is thought fight must
have occurred several days ago. The
locality is over 200 miles from Helena
with no telegraph communication.
There never was a period in the his
tory of that or any other Territory
when SO much horsethieving was 60
ing on. The citizens are determined
70 ehectually stop it. Fully fifty
'meVes have been hanged or shot in

A BAD sUBIEcT.

Colonel Mateland was recently ap- pointed agen, of a well-known lite in- surance company. The high standing oi the colonel, and his excellent quali6ca- tions as a business man, immediately secured for him a remunerative run of business. The other day, while sitting in his office. . healthy looking young man entered and said tha, he would like to have his life insured. am in some thing of . hu.v," said he, "for my friends are waiting for me there at the door. want a ten thousand dollar policy"
 The companys physician who vas present, pronounced him sound, and the policy vas soon made out Several days later, a man mel the colooel in the street and said:
 -Whas busiress did young Blumus have with you the other days" Had his life insured" | And you insured it p
 "Of course Why shouldn't iI He is in good health."
 But believe he will die suddenly"
 We have an eminent physician to de- eide u pcn such possibilities. What makes you think that he will die ssddenly?"
 "Oh, it's nothing to me, colonel. lf your physician knows all night. The young fellow requested that he be allowed to go out and settle up his private affairs, and the judge granted it."
 "The Judge.' gasped the colonel.
 "Yes, the circuit judge. You see the young fellow is to be hanged next Friday !"

"Look here" said judge to a jury man, "I do not desire to wound your sees;nss, bat why don't you put on clean shirs ?"
 Because my wife has been very busy for several days and have had no one to sew on buttons"
 @ Hasn't your wife had time to sew on . buttoc ?"
 sNo, sir"
 What's the matter, children sick"
 No, sir, children somewhat dirty, bu, in good health"
 sWhat is your wife doing that keeps her Q constaatly employed ?'
 "wen, you see. several days ago, our minister came asound and said that by ssch . time he had to have tvo hundred pain q hsssches to send to the heaah- ens, asd ny vifs-good soul that sAs is has ben busy ever since.

An incident happened very shortly af-
ter the first woven wire had been
stretched across the East river from the
two abutments upon which now hangs
suspended the grandest bridge in the
world: "a lasting monument to the
skill of the engineers, and looked upon
with pride by all Americans and viewed
with admiration and wonder by the
world" A small car had been arranged
so that tie workmen could wheel them
selves across the span, twisting each
time as they did so another wire into
the grand cable which now forms one of
of the main supports of this costly struc-
ture. A prominent young lady con-
ceived the idea of crossing In the same
manner as the workmen, and although
her friends tried hard to dissuade her, 1t
was all to no purpose. The rash lady
assembled to the summit of the pier, and
seating herself in the chair, 1t was but a
moment before she was pluckily draw
ing herself toward the opposite pier.
Such courage could not but be admired.
But as they gaZed on the poor girl they
noticed that she had stopped almost in
the very center of the cable, and horrors,

kerchief in her hand telling her friends
that she is fainting The widest con-
sternaIon now ensued; the ladies
screamed and tainted and the gentlemen
offered large sums to anyone who would
attempt rescue. After much hesita-
tion handsome young man dressed MS
sailor volunteered to make the attempt.
The brave lad, after divesting himself of
hat and shoes, started out hand over
hand toward the still swaying figure so
far from him. AS the young girl had
now completely lost consciousness 1t was
feared by many that the swaying of the
cable would throw her out of the chair
Many turned away unable to look at
such q spectacle, and ten thousand 9th
ers on both shores watched the sailors
progress with interest. The brave lad
finally reached the car, and as he, sup
porting the lady with one arm, sue
cessfully commenced the return trip a
mighty shout arose, and ten thousand
handkerchieis We're applied to tear
stained eyes. Hark, another resounding
shout, "she is saved.'' "she is saved"
But the brave fellow has tainted and
they are applying restoratives; he opens
his eyes and receives their thanks but
refuses all offers of money, saying, mo,
keep the money; did not do it for that, !"
