In Sanctum Matrimenium.

In 1873 Oren Emerson was elected
Probate Judge of Deer Lodge county.
He is now serving his fourth term in
that capacity. For twenty years
Judge Emerson has been intermixed
and associated with those Montana
men who carved their way to the
front in early days. e.-.
He has 80 thoroughly honored his
judicial position and SO generously
rendered justice to whom justice was
due, that his power Is felt, and his
friends have become legion. Last
evening he. was overwhelmed with
congratulations. The lady whom he
led to the alter, Miss Pauline E.
Vestal, possesses those charms and
womanly qualifications necessary to
true wifahOod. Her superiority
in attainments and mental culture
have given her p sltion In society
which Is truly envlaole.
While the old time friends of Judge
Emerson rejoice in his happy posses
sion of SO much wealth Of intellect
and grace, his untold numter Of
Butte and Deer Lodge acquaintance
are envious. but still yield to him
that admiration 80 well deserved
from one who tor years has filled the
honorable office of Probate Judge.

CAUGHT.
A Cracksman Found In the Tolls.

Butte City is nothing Il not chief
in all things. Her capitalists, busi-
less men and officers are always and
ever at the front
In the annals Of crime Butte has
received credit for many crimes
and portions not justly her due.
Officer Mcdonald, aud his brother
officials, have for several weeks been
working q gang for the purposes OF
Justice. The arrests made In the
past week have not been recorded be-
cause, by premature publication the
ends of justice might haze been de-
feated. On the morning Of the 4th Of
February q man named Quin wac
arrested for cracking Sohilling's
tailor shop last Sunday. This same
Quin was arrested st Spokane Falls
last fall on suspicion, of having muir
dered q Chinaman in charge
of q gang of Chinamen
who possessed D large amount Of
money. Guilt has been fixed upon
Quln as the thief Of the tailor shop
and the cloth stolen has been re-
covered. Yesterday be waived exami-

house of Mrs. Ambrose, and the

Mcdonald. Yesterday he was con-
victed and fined $40 and cost by a

thoritative information compels us to
state that hve bad men have been
frightened into leaving the country

ELECTRIC DEATH.
Narrow Escape from the Paralyzing
Influences Of Divine Providence.

It may not be the duty Of a news
paper reporter to say out loud what
he thinks concerning the telephone,
electric and other wires which con-
meet ali business houses, dwellings
and sometimes adjacent towns. The
MINER reporter claims the matter a.
coming within his province and re-
ports as follows:
On the 9th inst. the telephone Of
fee at Butte was visited by a dou-
BILE dose of unclaimed duplex, first
class. paralyzing electricity. When
the shock first struck the Cen.
trail office Mr.. Richards was "up q
pole, 80 to speak.
The insulation Of wires belonging
to the telephone, Iconflicted with the
electric light current and turned sew
eral of his fingers, on one hand. The
other hand was grasping the pole;
an irreconcilable shock passed
through Mr.. Richards system and
entered the central Office. The
lightning played upon the wires to
such an extent that the young lady
operator and receiver was immensely
astonished in several places. A per-
feet glare of electric fame illuminat-
ed the ofice, and so continuous
was its glare upon surrounding OBJ
jects that the scene presented was
ghastly beyond comparison.
Although thoroughly familiar
with the freaks of electricity, the
young lady felt that Divine Provi.
dence had interposed an objection
and was making a visitation. She
sprang over all the tables, tore down
all the enunciators in her flight

EDITH'S PUNISHMENT.
BY HELEN e. sTANDIFoRD.

Rodbrook Farm, extending over many
hundred acres of rich prairie land, and EN- |.
bracing within its limits forest of valuable
timber, was indeed property of which its
possessor might be proud,
SO thought Edith Norton, as she paused
for rhohleht in her walk through the grove
OF magnificent oak trees, on whose edge
the farmhouse was located. No wonder
that smile of triumph overspread her face,
and her eyes sparkled, rs she thought how
excellent we're her prospects For becoming
mistress OF this vast estate, she was fairly
amazed at her own success, for in two short
months she had succeeded in fascinating
young Albert Rodbrook, shy country lad,
who had nevertheless grown bold enough to
declare his love for this bewitching, grace
full girl, with her city manners and dainty
clothes.
She was visitor hi the house OF her
aunt, whose nign IN front Bf a very modest
dwelling IN the adjoining village read:

A MOST FIENDIsH PLOT.
Discovery Of Scheme I'm San Fran
cisco to Kill on Many
Leading Men.
Judges, congressman, Capitalists, and
Public Officials to Be Dynamited
to Death.
San Francisco dispatch.

One of the most sensational Ind startling
plots for wholesale assassination of the
most prominent men in this city came to
light here tonight. Some time ago the
police obtained information of the exist
ence Of sR organization called "The Social
istic Revolutionary Association" which, it
was asserted, was comprised OF ultra
socialistic members. A close watch was
Kept ON their movements, and the police
finally succeeded in obtaining the minutes
of one Of their meetings, held Nov. 20.
From these facts it was discovered that
put out of the way about twenty men, IN
cluding w. I. Coleman, Congressman W.
w. Morrow, Gen. w. II. l.. Barnes, Mayor
Bartlett, United States Judge Lorenzo
Sawyer, Leland Stanford, Charles Crocker,
Gov. Stoneman, the principal police officials,
and several others. These names were
placed on the prospective list" and placed
in the hands of the Executive COMMITTEES
TO carry out the orders of the association.
The committee were to devise the best
mode of accomplishing the ends of the base
plot, and were thus engaged when their
work was brought to a sudden termination
tonight by the discovery Of the associa-
tion's headquarters at No. 900 Montgomery
avenue, by the police, and the arrest or
four men found therein, named Julins O.
Koosher, Henry Weiseman, Charles Nit
telstadt, and Oscar Eggers. In the room
were also found complete laboratory for
the manufacture of internal machines. The
men were taken to the city prison, when
they boldly asserted they were dynamiters,
and proposed to get rid of the citizens
named, and then raze Chinatown. The
prisoners also belong to the German branch
of the Anti Cody League. No charge has
yet been entered against the prisoners.
Further developments are expected.

his first attack James Hedbreok was a
corpse in the home of his fathers.
But, ufisii fewhours before his deuttf,
he had been confident of recovery. not cred
iting the physicians statement that, unless
great precautions were used, his iron con-
stitution might succumb to disease of this
kind; Accordingly. he had died without
making will; dnd his widow found that
part of his PROPERTY allowed her by law TO
be very small.
The early summer days found her still at
the old home, but knowing now that she
had no claim to it nor to the surrounding
acres:
Albeft's return Vas expected in August,
that not all the, remembrance of their last
interview could destroy.
He came, but, instead of going NJ once to
his home, stopped over night at Mr.. Dra-
pers, and walked up to the farmhouse on
the following morning. He remembered; I;
perhaps with tinge of sadness, that il was
on just such day as this, the previous
summer, he had first met the woman who
had proved false to him.
She was Waiting hpw TO. greet him, with

morning"
And then she knew that all was lost, that
she could never hope to charm him again.
On the following day she left .Elmdale to
take up her residences under her fathers
roof:
Six months later her humiliation was
complete. when she learned that Mrs. Al.

been installed as mistress of Rodbrook

The Swiss Poor.

They do queer things in Switzer-
land, considering that the Swiss eulo-
gize their country as "the land of
liberty" The children of poor people
are regularly hired out by auction in
most of the cantons. There was q most
painful scene recently in the market
place at Biel, a town near Berne,
where, in spite of the heartrending en-
treaties of q widowed mother, her four
young children, ranging from two to
ten, we're "placed" out for year to
the highest bidder by the public crier,
the fsmily thus being broken up and
separated for fear lest the woman
should be compelled to seek for assist
ance from the town. This is really very
nearly as bad as the old slave sales in
America, and should doubt whether
there is any other country in Europe
where such an infamous system exists
at the present time. .--London Truth.
