Railroad Rumors.

Rumors are afioat in authoritative
railroad circles that the U. P. will build
a branch road from Evanston to Mont
pelier to save expense in hauling coal
from their mines at Almy, and to
facilitate local travel and traffic through
that section.
The o. S. L. R. R. Co. have at last
determined to build the shops at Mont
pelier. We are glad to know this, and
hope the citizens of Montpelier will meet
the company on fair and equitable
grounds. "You tickle me- etc., is an
old proverb and worth remembering.
1t is not yet decided whether the
shops at Logan will be rebuilt at that
place or not. We rather think they
will, and would suggest that the Logan
City Council meet and confer with the
railroad company, and try to induce
them to put up good, substantial rock
buildings, which will be better adapted
to resist the destructive element. Logan
needs the shops there, and the company
needs them, as great deal of repairing
is carried on at that point.-Bear Lake
Democrat.

number of camels and mules laden with
baggage broke away during the skirm-

empty water vessels for the zereeba. The
occupation of Hasheen is now admitted
to be mistake. The convoy work is
telling severely on the troops. many Of
whom are sick. Osman Digna, on Sun
day. ordered his troops to advance or

The Half-Breed Fuss.

OTTAWA, March 25.-The excitement
over the Riel rebellion grows daily.
Every bit of information is eagerly
sought and members OF the government
and chief officials are besieged with IN
quirIes for news. They state this even
ing that nothing further has been re-
ceived from the northwest. Colonel
Irvine is expected to arrive at Carlton
this evening, but before anything can be
obtained from him. owing to the wires
being cut, messengers will have to drive
ninety miles to Humboldt. There was
a Cabinet council this afternoon and
the whole question was discussed.
WINNIPEG, March 25.-The excite
ment over the rebellion in Taskutch-
evan county increases hourly. The
entire city is in an uproar. The first
day by special train. Thousands
of people assembled at the station
and cheered as the train rolled out.
The remainder of the troops.
including the Winnipeg field battery,
Winnipeg troop of cavalry and the re-
mainder of the Nineteenth battalion,
will leave by special train tomorrow.
General Middleton is expected here in
the morning, from the east, to take
command of the expedition. 1t is re-
ported that many Indian tribes
are rising. Piapot's band of
1,500 are holding war dances and
others are doing likewise. 1t is believed
that Piapot and others will attempt to
capture the barracks at Regina. The
garrison is weak, and the very first de-
tachment forwarded goes there. The
telegraph line northwestern Humboldt
has been cut, and the operators impris-
oned. The mails in that vicinity have
been seized by the rebels. who
confscated the mail contractors
horses and stations, 1t is stated
that Charles holland. ex-member
of the Manitoba Legislature, has been
captured by Riel and threatened with
death. He incurred Riel's displeasure
during the Red River rebellion. The
troops will proceed from Gu Appelle, by
way of the Tanchwood hills, to Prince
Albert, making detour to avoid the
Indian reserves. No particulars of the
reported slaughter OF the police at Fort
Carleton are yet obtained. It's thought
that everything at that point is in pos
session of the rebels except Fort Sas-
katchewan.
OTTAWA. March 25.-It is understood
that orders were issued this afternoon
that 400 OF batteries "a" and "B" will
be dispatched at once to the northwest
to aid the Manitoba militia III coping
with Riel's outbreak. 1t is also stated
that government has telegraphed to
asking permission to send
troops through American Territory.

BIG FIRE.
Buffalo Music Hall and Catholic
Church Burned.

BUFFALO. March 25.-This evening as
an attachee of the Music Hall was
lighting the gas above the stage, drop
fly took fire from a defective burner.
In an instant the whole stage was in
flames, and six minutes later the entire
building was burning. The McCauIl
Opera company were dressing, prepare
tory to the production of "Falka, -
and had barely time to es-
cape. Some were only partially dressed.
The company lose their entire ward
robes for the operas of "Falka," The
Little Duke" and ''The Queens Lace
Handkerchief" and the company had
most of their trunks brought to the
building and these were consumed also.
Very few persons had arrived to witness
the performances, and all escaped with
out injury.
An hour later, the st. Louis Roman
Catholic Church, at the rear
of the Music Hall, took fire,
and it was soon evident
that the magnificent difice was doomed.
The street between the Music Hall and
the church is very narrow, rendering it
impossible for the fire department to do
effective work. George Smith and Jo-
seph Green assembled ladders in front of
the church, for the purpose of assisting
the tiremen in directing the work. The
building burnedrapidly and the fremen
and Smith hastily left the roof, which
they had reached, but for some reason
Green renamed and frantically rushed
to the cupola, climbing it in full view of
thousands of spectators. He clambered
to the lightning rod, but returned to
the body of the roof, which was now
burning fiercely. He rushed to the
corner of the building, and, needless of
the cries of the firemen, who had tar
paulin stretched for him to Jump into,
made for the tower, and from it hung
by his hands fully ten minutes. An
attempt was made to reach him
with a ladder, but it was unsuccessful,
owing to the net work of telegraph
wires surrounding the building. At
this time the entire front of the church
was enveloped in flames. When the
smoke cleared away, he was still cling
ing to the edge of the roof. Then
he lunged forward, let go
his hold and fell and struck on his head,
and was instantly killed. At $50
O'Clock the tower of the Music Hall fell
in, and few minutes after the front
wall fell into the street. The south
wall, which was unusually strongly
built, as it was within ten feet of large
private dwelling, remains intact. The
fire was finally confined to the Music
Hall and the church The Music Hall
was completed in 1888, having been
about year in course of construction.
The st. Louis church was the oldest
Roman Catholic church in the city.
