\ Cowardly Murder at Rio Grande City.
RIO GRANDE CITY, June 12.-lSpecial.
As much as two years ago ex.Sheriff
Peter Mecellie and County Surveyor
Otto Beaverton, both officials of this
(Stsrr) county, became estranged
through some minor disagreement.
The breach was widened by officious
frieads. Some months back they met
on the streets of Camargo, Mexico, and
exchanged several shots, the
affray resulting in the serious
wounding of Marcellie. No further
blood was split and the affrsy and feud
passed out of mind. To-day Beaverton
was sitting in George Lewis saloon,
with his back to the door, playing cards
entered unobserved, stealthily ap.
preached the unconscious man, and
drawing pistol placed it to the back Of
Brewerton's head and fired, literally
lifting off the top of his skull and spat-
tering his brains over the table and in
the faces of his companions.
MarceIlie, in the confusion OF
the murder, rushed out. leaped
astride horse which he had in readi-
ness and in 10 minutes was in Mexico,
crossing the ford at this place in head
long gallop. He has many friends on
the Moxiran side and his eatrsditiou
will he diff cult, An effort will be made
by his friends in this county 10 induce
him to give himself up. beaverton
was from Louisiana and was drunken,
dissolute, desperate official, with few
friends. His brotner-in-law, County
Surveyor Eyall, WAS killed just opposite
the scene OF to.day's tragedy, by the
Lipps boys, In 1852.

Prohibition at Terrell.

TERRELL, June l3.-lSpocial.l Tho
novelty OF woman appearing on the
stage as public speaker attracted a
very large assemblage TO hear Mrs.
Saxon Mt the opera house last night.
She spoke plainly and earnestly In be-
half OF her cause. Her address was de-
void OF the fanatical phantasm so com
mon with the advocates of prohibition.
The night was warm and the room ZEN
dered excessively unpleasant by the
jam. The alarm of tire produced in
tense excitement, and frantic efforts OF
the audience 10 be- freed from the build
ing. After great effort by the cooler
men tho fears were subsidized and Mrs.
Saxon proceeded with her address.
She thought 1t was false alarm, VITA
view OF breaking up the meeting. Hut
1t proved TO be a worthless isolated
building, aud generally believed TO be
set ON fire. After tho speaker concludes
the usual contribution was asked for.
The election TO- day passed oil with the
best Of feeling. But little effort was
made by either those favoring or oppos.
ing iOcGl option.
Terrell, Kaufman, Elmo and Forney
give II majority of 80 against prohibit
ton. Lawrence, Poetry and Able
Springs have not yet been heard from.
Ii is thought the majority in the county
will be 200 against prohibition.

but fate and capitalists are memorable,
and by holding on too long or endeav-
Oring to do something beyond their
capacity they are forced to the newt
able doom Of taking what is offered.
II there is deserving class of men in
the world they are the prospectors, the
original discoveries Of precious miner
ais, but they too frequently holds their
property at an unwarranted figure,
when to make a sale would enable him
to develop other claims and keep even
with the world.
No district in Montana offers better
inducements to capitalists than our
own, but our properties are not devel-
oped sufficiently to command fabulous
prices and such should not be expected.

WINTER.

Winter. cold, stern, relentless winter,
has at last knocked at our door.
Though his chilling embrace is COM
mon to us in the months of October
and November, up to the eth inst. we
have only been reminded Of his ap-
prOach by referring to the almanac.
Up to date he has been giving his undi-
vided attention to the states bordering
on the Atlantic ocean; but now he
comes to us away up here in the north
west and wants to know ''what we have
done with our summers earnings: il
our wood bins and larders are full or
empty" Sunny days in great sufii-
cheney have been furnished us to make
all needed preparations for our cold
visitor, and those who have failed to
make the necessary provisions to enable
them to laugh at winters chilly blasts"
have none to blame hut themselves.
On business, as usual, the first APP
proach of winter has tendency to
tighten up things in general, but AS the
people become acclimated, sd to speak,
it resumes its usual activity.
Our stOckmen feel fortunate that
their horses, cattle and sheep are pre-
pared for the cold, wrapped as they are
in folds Of fat, accumulated during the
excellent and unprecedented oppor-
tunity to Craze during the last two
months. Everything considered win
ter, though late, is welcome, but the
great majority will hail with sincere
delight, the return Of spring and the
many blessings that attend it.
