POLICE COURT.

The Slavonian Dameanvitch came
into court yesterday in company with
somewhat distorted orb of vision
and plead not guilty to the charge
brought by Mr.. Nagues. His honor
listened graciously to the pros and
cons, the why's and wherefores, de-
murrers and motions of client and
counsel, prisoner and witness, and
never once changed his seat. Nins
columns of law were exhausted to
prove it was the city marshal who
did the shooting and that Mitchell,
the prisoner, was a foreign banker,
dining at an up town restaurant at
the time the fracas occurred; that
Nagues is member of the secret league
and had his fist loaded with dyna-
mite when he struck the friend of
Mitchell. The counsel for the de-
fence proved and alibi. so far as Mr..
Warfield was concerned and let the
case rest. The deeision7of the court
at 4 p. m.. bound the prisoner over in
the sum of 81 900 to appear before the
grand jury. ::
The case Of Scott Nagues was con-
tinued until to-day, when his honor
will decide whether he was guilty OF
an alibi as was Mr.. Warfield or of JUS

Terrific Explosion.

SOMERSET, Pa. Jan. IA. - The
Somerset Chemical Works, two miles
east of this place. where nitro-glycer-
inc and all grades of high explosives
are made, was the scene of a terrible
explosion this afternoon. Five men
were at work In the packing-house
where some dynamite ignited from a
red-hot poker, which one of the men
was using.
In second the whole building was
in flames and the men with their
clothing on fire started to run and
were but a short distance from
the building when 500 pounds
of dynamite exploded. Two
men were found about sixty rods
away burned to a crisp, the others
were not seriously injured. The
shock was so great that the people of
this town ran into the street think
ing tLeir houses were. falling down,
window glasses were broken in
houses half q mile away from the
scene of the accident.

Sheriff Business.

Criminal affairs at the sheriff's
Office are quiet at present, probably
owing to the vigilance of the many
officers in Silver Bow county.
The Jail in charge of Peter Lei Clair,
is a model of neatness from the un-
derground workings to the dome.
Sheriff Sullivan has every depart
ment of the establishment under his
own supervision and knows the
name and charge preferred
against every prisoner. His Office
men. and in fact the entire force,
have been chosen with a view to
their ability and sound qualification.
The responsibilities resting upon the
shoulders of these gentlemen seems
to be appreciated, and Silver Bow
county may rest easy is such efficient
hands.
The Jail at present contains thirty
tour prisoners, twelve of whom are
held to await the action of the grand
jury or appear before the district
court. Six others are out under
bond and will appear at the next
term. Sheriff Sullivan's deputies are
Samuel Tonkin, John Moore and
James Fish, of Butte, and Ed. Fair
field, at Melrose, with J. Buzzo, as
under sheriff. Twenty-Five of the
Jail birds are vags and petty larceny
thieves. These prisoners are having
a rich time Of it, doing nothing, with
a mattress to sleep upon, the best of
plain grub set before them daily and
warm comfortable quarters TO stay IN.

The Revolution

In medical practice, which has taken place
within the past thirty years, has been very
marked. When Hostetters Stomach Bitters
first made their appearance, violent purgation,
tho lancet and narcotics were measures resort
ed 10 with little regard to the idiosyncrasies of
the sick, Now infinitely more satisfactory results
are accomplished with the Bitters. The consti-
pated are no longer dOsed and drenched, the
and sedatives have taken the places of opiates.
Dyspepsia, nervousness insomnia, irreguIarity
ofthe bowels, rheumatism and chills and fee
yer, are successfully treated with this popular
tonic and regulator. As a medicated stfmulant
it is professionally commended, and Is prefer
able, as Q means Of renewing exhausted ener-
gy, to the average tonics. These statements rest

CURRENT COMMENT.

Chicago Inter Ocean: IL Cleveland
wants TO keep up his reputation for
breyity his inaugural will simply be:
Here We are again" swear in, call the
roll, and proceed TO business.
Philadelphia Press: In the midst of
the clatter and hurry of Cabinet making,
the name and availability OF Roswell +.
Flower, of New York, seems to have been
entirely forgotten. Appearances Indicate
that this particular Flower Is little
faded.
Cincinnati Enquirer: The Senatorial
situation In Illinois presents some excit-
ing phases and great dangers. An extra
ordinary value will be placed on the
health of each member of the Legislature.
We trust nobody would be willing to pay
a member TO get sick.
Detroit Times: Advice to the Legis-
lature: Either remove all restriction
upon the hours and days upon which
liquor may be sold-or make that back
door and side door business SO plain that
the law can be enforced, and the invita-
tion TO perjury be withdrawn.
Chicago Inter Ocean: 1t is intended
by the committee of arrangements for the
inauguration ball to have the room nearly
as wide as it is long. This will enable
Democratic statesmen, regardless OF pres
ent or previous" condition, to answer to
the call, "Chassez all" without humping
their heads against the wall.
Kalamazoo Telegraph: The State has
had an extraordinary growth the past
four years. The means taken to extend a
knowledge of its advantages have con-
tributed directly to that end. Ii the
commissioner charged with this business
has exercised even small influence ID
this direction the state has been we'll re-
warded for the outlay by its increased
wealth.
New York Sun: We merely wish to
remark that Mr. Payne is Democrat OF
good many years standing. while the
mugwumps are not Democrats at all. Ii
seems to us that the mugwumps are
decidedly COOL They spend their days
and their nights In laying down the
Democratic policy, and then kick like a
bay steer when an eminent Democrat like
the Senator elect from Ohio ventures to
give his views.
New York Sun: Senator Palmer's bill
providing for the establishment of g
Bureau of Public Health is bad mea-
sure. 1t implies an unhealthy tendency
toward too much government, and pre-
sumes to undertake public functions
which the State Governments are entirely
competent to perform, and which lie
strictly within the line of their duty. Il
is bad In principle, and it is equally bac
In detail, offering, as it does, premium
for the establishment of the worst anC
most oppressive evils of bureaucracy.

thing "cold-blooded forgery" and says

knew Karen and never met him but
once, and that ST. John had never offered
To make any terms with the Republicans.
Hearing Of Mr.. Legate's denial, Mr.
Clarkson Of the DEMONS Register, and
member Of the Republican National Com
mittee now says that he can prove by
Senator Plumb, Karens and others that
Legate did make such proposals as he Is
charged with, and that his letter viii be
photographed, engraved and printed, and
as his writing is characteristic and we'll
known the identity Of the letter and Its
authorship viii soon be proved. The
controversy has now assumed rather
interesting shape, and We shall await
further development with curiosity.
Somebody has evidently told very big
lie or ST. John was ia the market for
cash, unless, as may be possible, some one
played game at his expense.
Grand Rapids morning telegram., 1885-01-14

The trial Of Daniel Holcomb probably
ends the efforts 10 secure conviction OF
any person who is now charged with the
murder Of the Crouch family. The crime
is one OF the most atrocious IN the history
OF our State and the succeeding fatalities
among those connected with the murdered
family unparalleled. Conviction has not
been secured but suspicion has not been
removed. The talk about robbery as a
motive is nonsense. The only people on
earth who could have any motive To com
nit the murder will be held responsible
by pnblic opinion as the instigators If not
the actual perpetrators. This cloud hangs
over them and will not clear away.

THE ST. JOHN CONTROVERSY.

THIS question as 10 whether st. John

A REPORT made by the medical officer
OF the London Board % Health proves by
facts and figures the salutary effects of
vaccination. The report shows that
twenty times as many children were sub
mitted 10 the operation as refused to take
the precaution, and that the deaths from
smallpox were as ten To one In favor of
the children vaccinated The operation
has been resisted TO some extent
by society organized for
that purpose, whose members pose
as martyrs after paying the fines imposed
by the corporation for refusing to comply
with the compulsory law. The same
spirit is manifested once in a while in
Montreal, where a few years ago there
was riot as the result of precautionary
action Of the councilmen. The City Hall
was mobbed by the irate populace, and
the shop of a poor little apothecary who
had advocated vaccination was sacked
and demolished.

The death OF Schuyler Colfax removes
another OF the men who occupied high
official station during the war; Elected
to Congress in 1854 he served continuously
until 1878, the last four years as President
OF the Senate. These years were the
most momentous in the history of the
country, embracing as they did the pre-
liminary movements which led up to Sc
cession, the period OF the civil war, and
nearly the entire history of reconstruc-
ton. Mr.. Colfax is entitled to the CRATE
ful remembrance of his countrymen. In
Congress he rendered valuable service to
his country IN those dark days. and was a
close friend OF President Lincoln. Not
many OF those with whom he was then
intimately associated survive him.
OF the members Of Congress James O..
Blaine served with him the longest time.
Had he been SO disposed Mr.. Colfax could
have made valuable contributions to the
history OF tie times and OF his contem~
poraries in the administration of public
affairs. IL IL worthy OF remark that
nearly all OF the men who filed the
prominent places in the civil departments
have passed away, while the great mill
tary leaders nearly all survive. The
greatest part OF the history OF Mr.. Colfax's
life is interviewer with the history OF the
country and must be told when that is

SmlIaX adorned the lace curtains. while
vases of flowers stood all around the

stood upon the second floor, was covered
with fruit and flowers, and decorated with
many coIored candles in silver Candida
