MANAGER COLES INNOVATIONS.
A Prominent Legal Luminary En-
thuses Over King Coles Big.
Tented show.

Tented Snow.
"I've always been an inveterate circus
goer,' remarked Q well-known local attor
ney to a party Of friends at a popular city
resort, last evening, land thought that ]
had seen everything worth looking at in
the tented-show line; but, after witnessing
q performance of Coles Circus, at Living
ston, last Monday, I must admit that ]
was considerably startled to find that !
was not as blase on horse opera as I had
supposed. Cole has gathered up more en-
tirely new, brilliant and sensational at
fractions than | ever saw before in one
combination. The circus proper is given
in two rings and on an elevated stage, the
whole being encircled by an immense race
track, on which the hippodrome contests
and Carver's "Wild West" exhibition
takes place. Novelties follow each other
with bewiloering rapidity, and with all my
n0nchalance l caught myself cheering sew
sral times with q gusto that l had not ex-
perienced since I first saw, in the dim past,
Old Dan Rice and his trick mule. Cole
has got some first-class riders, which
are always strong cards in Butte.
Among the leading equestrians are
Billy Dutton and James Leon, both of
whom accomplish back and forward somer-
saults, p~irouttes and other things while
their horses are on q dead run. There are
all I'M of acrobatic and gymnastic
acts, bicycle riding, wire walking, displays
OF strength, juggling, leaping, broadsword
contests, some original Glowing, exhi-
billions of trained elephants, stations,
dogs and monkeys, and" as l said before,
''every feature possesses unusual merit.
What struck me as being the most extra
ordinary @rial act I ever saw was the per-
Torrance OF the Silbon family, four in
number, on an elaborate arrangement of
trapeze rigging, away up at the apex of the
tent. DR.. Carver's approximations Of life
on the plains, introducing q host OF cow.
boys, Indians and vaqueros, are thrilling
in the extreme, and the hippodrome races
were applauded to the echo. One of the
most pleasing features of the show is the
music rendered by Prof. Goods
military band-not one OF the old-time
ear-splitting troupes of itiener-
ate musicians"
"The show lie bang-up all through, and 1
suppose I'll have to 60 against it again
it comes here, on Saturday" and
the local luminary walked up Main street
humming the clowns latest song.

Injunction Refused.

Some time ago the Amy and Silversmith
Company applied to Judge Galbraith for
o permanent injunction to restrain the
Moulton Company from taking out ore
in ground claimed by the former Company,
until the matter could be adjusted by the
courts. After hearing the evidence and
arguments in the case the Judge refused to
grant the Injunction. This leaves the mat
tor just where it was before with the
Moulton Company in full possession of
the ground in dispute. The Amy and
Slversmith, it appears. held that the
Moulton was working on a vein whose
apex did not show itself within the boun-
diaries of it's claim. while the Moulton Al
legged that it was following it's own vein
which dipped. into the ground owned by
the Amy and Silversmith. The decision Of
Judge Galbraith establishes the right of
the Moulton to the orc contained in the
vein and also the fact that In mining it the
Moulton IL not . trespasser. The deeiaion
was rendered last Tuesday.

From Honor's brilliant train.
Freed, now, from tolls and cares,

How trivial they seem.
And yet, while here, he strove
With all his able zeal,
For party, place and power.
Faithful in woe and veal.
In presence Of "grim DEATH"
When party's lost to view,
Admiring fellow-men
Give honor where it's due.
And as, on every side,

But, ali! perhaps they're lost
In song by angels sung.
God grant eternal life,
And joys he gives the blest,
To him whose years of work
Have sweetened thought of rest!

track was in good condition, and with the
exception of the wind noted, all the con
ditions for fast time were present. The
great trotting race between Ranchero and

called out every horseman in the city and
a i large number from the outside. Among
the latter who arrived on the noon train
were Hon. w. II. Chessman, Mr.. Frank
Pope, one of the Commissioners of Lewis

ca cAGo, August 12.-At the opening oil
the Anarchist trialto-day Assistant States
Attorney Walker occupied 60 msnutes in
closing. He said: 1.-THE law violated an.
peals to you. You stand for the first time
in the history of this country between An
archy and law; between the absolute over
throw OF the present system by force and
constitutional law represented by republic
can institutions. Do not forget the weight
OF your responsibility, the awful magni-
tude of it. The foundation stone of the
great public edifce is Icing Slapped. JUS
tice has been attacked-shall tstand erect?
Gentlemen, that rests with you. The po-
lice have done their duty. They gave their
best blood for law. They stood as men
upon command and they never swesysd.
Let the jury have the same courage, the
same spirit and the same calm iortitude
under the responsibility. Seven Of the po-
licemen are dead, but the outraged and
violated law shall be redeemed, for in their
martyrdom Anarchy was buried forever.
Mr., Walker was followed by Sigmund
Zeisler who occupied the remainder of the
day.
