Scandal at Radersburg :.

The Jefferson County Sentinel, published

man by the name Of George +. Mckay was
caught on ladder In attempting 20 enter a
prominent residence In Radersburg. At the

tended, but subsequently,, on being arrested,
1t was ascertained that he was attempting to
enter the room of fourteen-year- o Id daugh-
ter Of the prophecies Of the house, with n
view Of having an improper intimacy with
the young lady. Sanders, Of Helena, was re-
tanned for the defense, and our townsman
aud District Attorney, George r. Cowan,

tunately, In the interest Of justice, he was
absent on official business and could not at

DEATH OF COL. w. r. CHADWICK,
In Helena, Mont, Monday, sept. 20. 1885
Butte Miner, 10Th.

...... Butte Miner, 10Th.
Walter r. Chadwick, Esq, of Helena, died
at his home in that city on the morning OF
the 2sth of September. Mr.. Chadwick was
about fifty years Of age at the time Of bis
death, and native of the State of New YORK
He came West first to Iowa, and afterwards
to Nevada, and finally to Montana in the
spring of 1866. Since his residence in this
Territory he has been q very prominent
member of the bar, practicing his profession
successfully In nearly all the counties OF the
Territory. He was a thoroughly educated
gentleman in his profession, and an able and
distinguished lawyer. We know Of but few
men In his profession who were his peers,
and none that was his superior. He pos
sessed all the elements Of an able and sue
cessful lawyer; having cultured and analy-
teal mind, the power OF wording his ideas,
and of stepping from one point to another
with flowing address and convincing argu.
ment seldom to be witnessed. Mr.. Chadwick
never sought political preferment, but was
nj one time q member Of the Territorial Leg
islature, where he was alike conscientious
legislator and an able and respected member.
He was married In 1868 to Miss Norma
Ewing, or Helena city, who survives him,
and his brothers-in-law, no~ resident In the
Territory, are Hon. J. @. Robinson, Of Deer
Lodge, and Major John Mccormick, OF Mis-
soula. Mrs. Chadwick has the sympathy OF
!. large circle on friends and acquadstances
in the loss OF her distinguished and kind
husband.

CATCH AS CATCH CAN.
An Exhibition that Came Near Ending
Fatally.

Some ten days ago Tom Cannon, a profess
sional athlete, appeared here and made a
match with William Courtois for "Catch
caLcn ran. wresIis NJ tina sbafinn -inr loot
Saturday evening, at which time and place a
considerable number gathered. A canvas,
some twelve feet square, was fastened on the
floor, and after some preliminary boxing
diversion, the contestants appea AIRED. The
audience not being cup" in the rules consti-
tuting fall in that style of wrestle, Cannon
first examplifed what did and what did not
constitute fall The seconds and referee
were chosen, and business began, The first
tug lasted eight minutes. At the end of that
time Couptois rolled over on his shoulders
and Cannon sprang to his feet, claiming the
fall. About this time IL became evident to
the audience that Courtois had been choked
nearly to death, for he laid several seconds
asphyxiated. Then his feet quivered, and
with q series of convulsive movements he
recovered consciousness, and was helped up,
There was considerable feeling over the
matter. Cannon had slipped his arm under
Courtois' chin, pressed his neck, and abso-
lutely choked him until he had relaxed his
grip so Cannon could turn him on his shout
ders and claim the fall. In fact, he had
choked him almost to death, while the audi
ence, not realizing what was going on, had
been enjoying what they thought a WELL
matched contest Of strength, skill and endur-
ance. When the facts became known, Sheriff
McMaster, who had stepped in, ordered the
men to put on their clothes and "get" Can
non claimed he had the right to do it, and
Courtois had been too plucky to give up un.
til he was strangled past protest 1t was
simply brutality, Sheriff McMaster prop
erly said, eff that Is catch as catch can
wrestling, there will never be another match
of 1t wrestled in this county while I am sher-
if and can prevent it." Cannon had also
sprung off one knee and lit on Courtois' back
with the other during the tug, and we learn
Courtois was awarded "foup on that,
We know nothing Of the rules of such con.
tests, but fair, stand-up prize fight is not
half so bad or repulsive as was that choking;
and If cit Is in the game" the next Legisla-
ture should suppress such exhibitions. A
medical gentleman present said few SEQ
ands more Of 1t might have occasioned
Courtois' death on the spot.
