REVOLVING CRIME.
Preliminary Hearing of Bartholomew
O'Shea.

Yesterday morning the case OF the Ter
ritory VS.. Bartholomew O'Shea, who IS
charged with attempting to commit a rape
upon the four year old daughter OF VIM.
Reddy, colored, was begun before Justice
Nichols. County Attorney Scallan APP
peared for the prosecution, and the de-
iendant was represented by G. j. Walsh
and j. H. Duffy.
The first witness was the child's mother
Annie Reddy. She testified that on the
morning OF the 18th OF July she lett nome,
leaving the little one in bed. She returned
between 9 and 10 o'clock, and found the
prisoner in bed with the child, attempting
to effect it's ruin. She at once gave an
alarm, when O'Shea exclaimed, Il am the
guilty party" and make his escape from
the house. He was subsequently. ar

girl, was next called, but he ala

The Citizens of Butte Make a Mys-
. FERROUS Move.

Yesterday morning the walls and side
walks OF the entire city were adorned with
nosters which bore at their head the cabal-
istic characters, 3-7-77, under which was
printed the following p%ortentious words;
aWarning. Thugs, pimps, sure thing n

HE WAS IN LOVE.
But, SOured on His Would be Mother.
in.LaW.

Yesterday there was rather an interest
ing case tried before Justice Nichols, the
plaintiff being a young man named Burdette
and the defendant Mrs. NJ. e. Dirking. In
his suit Burdette alleged that the defendant
had robbed him OF $40 and the testimony
and the deductions to be draw therefrom
made the story a peculiar and in some res
poets rather a racy one. OF course there
were dry prosaic lawyers, the lady being
defended by Smith a Mediation, and prose
cuted by Scallon 4 Duffy, but neither their
ingenuity nor the law could prevent the
facts from being known o conceal the
undercurrent of romance which was part
and parcel OF the case.
The prosecuting witness is 81 man OF
80 years OF age and has been in this section
for some time, while the lady, who is still
comely, has been once or twice u widow,
and makes a living by peddling millinery,
for which purpose she has a team ana
wagon and visits all the adjacent points.
Among her other possessions Mrs. Dlrklng
has a comely daughter aged II years, and
she, it appears was the pivot on which the
case wa made to revolve. As lar as could
be cleaned from the mass Of testimOny, year
or more ago Ia year OF two makes but lit
tie difference) the plaintiff becameacquaint-
ed with the defendant and her daughter.
all the parties then living in Burlington. He
made his visits to the home OF the lady ire
ouent and long, and finally decided and
still owns that he is in love with the
daughter. Whether she ever gave INN any
or smiled on his suit was
not developed, but he testified that while
he was "a wooing," and in the
ardor OF his passion he presented, or gave
to keep, to the girl the sum Of $f46. This
she put in the bottom OF her trunk Tor
safe-keeping. but he now claims that it was
stolen therefrom by the mercenary mother
It can hardly be supposed that he knew.
at the time for subsequently he loaned the
old lady Tor rather the mother) $lO5, to
use in her business, and shortly after ne
became an unwelcome visitor. so to speak.
In a little while it was decided that Mrs.
Dirking should take a business trip which
she did through the valley and took the
daughter along with her. After their de-
narture Burdette became lonesome and
Started on their trail. Before he came up
with them he met persons whom they had
met and to whom he related his position
and stated that if the mother would con-
! sent to the marriage with the girl and aid
him to consumate it that he would forgive
| her debts. When she heard OF this the old
lady and daughter both declared that he
| was a nuisance and they did not want
| ANYTHING further to with him. Hence the
| snit. Between the testimony and the law
! yers the Judge decided that Burdette had
| not made out a case and the complaint
| vas accordingly dismissed.

Pardon Of Tim Finnegam.

Hundreds OF old Nevada people in this
city will be pleased to learn that Tim.
Finnegan, who killed Policeman Hughes in
Ward, White Pine County, Nevada, some
years ago, has been pardoned by the
Nevada State Board OF PardOns. There
were mitigating circumstances connected
with the crime OF which Finnegan was &C
cused. If we remember the circumstances
correctly, the policeman struck Finnegan a
severe blow over the head with IL club be-
fore the fatal shot was fired. At the most
this should have reduced the offense to
simple granddaughter, but General J. 4.
kittrell q in his glory as II prosecutor in
White Pine County at that time, and he
succeeded in convicting the accused OF
murder in the second degree, and sending
him up for life. The General was
a vigorous and relentless prosecutor,
and it is within the range of possibility that
his eloquence may have been so powerful
as to make the jury take too strong a view
OF the case. Anyhow Finnegan got a life
dose. While in prison Finnegan behaved
himself pretty well. He ISL fact an invalid,
and was unable to work at the usual labor
performed by the other prisoners. One
side and shoulder has persisted away IRON
the results OF a shot received by him during
the late war. Aside from the general belief
that his sentence was too severe. there was
also considerable sympathy for him on ac-
count of his helpless condition. The fact
of Finnegan being an old union soldier, and
having fought bravely through the entire
war did not hurt his cause a particle. We
understand that the board OF pardon
granted Finnegans pardon by a unanimous
vote

The Coming Match.

James Pascoe will commence training to-
day for the wrestling match between him
self and Tom. Cannon, which is to take
place ON August Sth. Sam Smell is to be
Pascoe's trainer. Mr.. Smell informed a
MINER reporter yesterday, that he was
very confident OF Pascoe winning the match.
1t will be a proud day for Butte if Mon.
tana's champion should get away with the
English champion. 1t is doubtful. if there
is a man in the world that is looked upon
with SO much dread by wrestlers, as this
same Tom. Cannon. By undertaking to
wrestle with Cannon, our little Montana
boy has shown considerable pluck. We
understand that Cannon will train at the
Columbia Garden, under the supervision OF
VIM. Nuttall.

THE COMING BOUT.
Some Facts About Miles McNally, One
Of the Contestants.

As the time for the McDonald-McNally
glove contest draws near the interest i'll
the event is on the increase and the
friends of the respective men are talking up
their merits in great shape, but as yet
there has been but little betting. How
ever, there is plenty OF time for that, and
the chances are when the day arrives there
will be considerable money in the hands OF
shareholders. Both men are in active
training and good condition, and each
promises to do his best on the occasion.
Last night The MINER representative
met a smooth-faced, clear-complexioned,
bOyish-looking yOungster, who was intro
duced as Miles McNally. In Il brief con-
versation which followed, the young IA
stated that he was six feet and half an inch
in heighth, weighs ordinarily 100 pounds
and is % years old. He states that he
was raised in st. Louis. went to Colorado
in 1881, and came to Montana about
eight months ago. His first public appear
ance us il sparrer was i'll Leadville, Colo,
where he entered a sparring tournament,
open to all corners for Il gold medal and
tho amateur championship of the State.
There were twenty-six competitors and he
won the medal after defeating such noted
sparrers as Paddy Mcdonald, John Roach,
Ed. Bretts, Frank Foley and Jimmy
O,Brien. His next encounter was at
Ashcroft, COlO. where, LOT IL purse O13lOO,
he defeated John Moore in one round.

vania, w;e his next opponent, the fight
taking place at Crested Butte, Colorado,

rounds. For a purse OF 500 he tackled
and bcsted Willard Donahuer at Ouray,
