THE ECLIPSE.
The Celestial Bodies Get Around ON Time,
Under a Cloud.

The eclipse of last Monday took place
promptly on time. The observations in Hell
ena, Butte, Deer Lodge and intermediate
country were considerably INSTRUCTED by
clouds, and very unfortunately the feecy,
fieeting ones were succeeded here by one Of
great density Just as the eclipse eliminated,
so we were unable to observe how nearly it
approached being annular. At Tsston, the
excursionists who went out from Helena,
had fine view of it. 1t is stated the longi-
tude Of Helena has been established by the
eclipse and time signals from Washington to
be exactly l12' w.
At the time Of the eclipse the sun was o.
996 900 miles distant from the earth the
moon was 1884 miles distant. These dis
tances and the relative sizes of the bodies
caused the cone Of total eclipse to fall from
1900 to 5000 miles short of the earth, and
therefore 1t the greatest observation I'm the
center Of the line there was still visible rim
of the sun seen past the intervening moon.
How grand and perfect In its workings Is the
system of the universe, and how approach
ing the qualities of the Infinite Is the intel
lcct OF man, that years and centuries before
the event the transits and eclipses can be
computed and foretold with a precision re-
duced to seconds. A serious and profound
consideration of these impressive facts al
most makes one have respect for Patent
Medicine Almanac.

CHoTEAU COUNTY TREASURER.
A Heavy Deficiency, But Made Good to the
County.

Herald, i2M-A report from Benton says
ex-County Treasurer Hunsberger, who re.
Gently closed term Of twelve years In office,
is in default to the extent of S1600 in his
settlement with the County Commissioners
His bondsmen are said TO be responsible,
and the county will probably be saved from
loss.
Herald, 13h.-Advices telegraphed District
Attorney Hunt from Benton, inform that
officer that ex Treasurer Hunsberger whose
reported deficit was alluded 10 in these col
9mns yesterday, has adjusted all differences
between him and the county. Commissioner
Wetzel, now In the city, is also informed to
like effect, and says that the ex-Treasurer in
diyidually raised in large part the sum due n
settlement Of his public accounts. Mr.. Huns.
berger Is universally spoken Of as an honest
man, but has been preyed upon by leeches,
who have made the most of his generosity.
He is tho owner of considerable real estate
IN Benton, and has hesitated at no sacrifice
TO settle dollar for dollar to the full extent he
was publicly liable. The assets complete are
said TO have been transferred yesterday to
the new Treasurer and re ceipts In full passed.

STEALING A TICKET OFFICE.
A Successful Raid and an Odd Ending.


Last Friday, while Agent Harrison, of
Warm Springs. was attending TO train duty,
some person reached into his office and stole
cut the ticket box. Three tramps had been
observed about the depot, and suspicion
rested on them. Search was made and they
had disappeared, but were tracked for about
a mile, where the box was found broken
open and some of the tickets remained, while
others had been stolen. Agent Harrison and
the section men finally succeeded in finding
and arresting the three men, and locked
them up in the station house, where there
was fire, until morning They were brought
here, arraigned before Probate Judge Emer-
son and a jury of twelve men Monday, and
tried. The jury disagreed; no tickets were
found on them, and the evidence was entire
ly circumstantial. On Tuesday they had an
other trial before Judge Emerson and jury
of six men; and again the jury disagreed.
Then the complaint of vagrancy was made
against them, to which they plead guilty, and
were sent to Jail for 30 days. They gave
their names as John Collins, John Harris
and James Williams. It is probable the box
was mistaken for cash box. If the parties
had stolen the bsx and retained any of the
tickets, they might easily have burned them
while confined In the station house.
