The ReliabIe Clothinr House.

The present season is the one to inspire
each and ev ry individual with that degree
of pride which compels him to dress as well
as his means will afford. In order to do so,
it behooves each individual to see that he
purchases his materials from a perfectly
reliable source, obtains the value of his
money, and avoids the flashing advertised
so.cailed bargains. The Marshall-Ball Co.
are the reliable clothing dealers of this city.
Their name is household word, and their
long existence in the community is the best
evidence of stability envisd by many
excelled by none. With these assurances
before the would-be purchaser, he cannot
fail to call at their stores, So and so New

Milkman Murphy's Apprentice.

1Michael v. Murphy is milk dealer, who
resides at 745 Grand street. About eight
months ago he was approached by raw
freshman who asked him for job. Liking
his appearance he gave him work and all
went well until Monday last, when Murphy
went around to collect some bills. He then
found that the IrishmaD, whose name is
John Matthews, was not quite as honest as
he appeared. In fact the SON of Erin had
been collecting on his own account.
Not wishing to be hard on him, he
discharged him and thought that would be
the last of it; but what was his surprise
when James Leonard, the milkman, told
him that his late employee had been to
him and wanted to sell Eve of Murphy's
customers to him. Murphy thought it was
time for him to look into the matter. He
found that Matthews. since his discharge,
had collected SO from q family by the
name of Tarbox, who live on Bramhall
avenue, So from family on Railroad ave.
nue., 50 ON Pacific avenue, and enough
from another to make the amount about
$40. Matthews was arrested by the Fourth
Precinct police. t

J. J. Hill, Of the Manitoba, says tho Wash.
ington correspondent OF the Pioneer Press, is
in tho city looking after his interests in the
Northwest, and to urge bill which Delegate
Toole Of Montana has introduced granting the
above road right of way through tho Fort Ber-
thold Indian reservation In Dakota and the
Blackfeet reservation in Montana. The new
line is to start from Minot, at which point the
Devils Lake line makes Its second crossing of
the Mouse river, and cross the reservation on
the line between townships 153 and 154, to
follow the Missouri river by the most conve-
nient route to the valley Of the Milk river,
through that valley to Fort Assiniabone, and
thence southwesterly to the great falls of the
Missouri. This will parallel the Northern Pa
cific to considerable extent 80 far as the ac-
cessible and valuable portions Of Dakota and
Montana are concerned.

sustained. The court at noon excused the jury
Tor an hour, aud after dinner charged them on
the law. The jury brought in verdict Of
guilty, and the defendant was sentenced to-
pay fine Of 500, and the Judge lectured him
on the enormIty Of his offense. The same dis
position was made Of the Territory IS. o. Berg.
The costs in each case amounted to $95. Mr..
Bosard, on behalf Of defendants appealed for
leniency, pleading their good standing at their
home in Steele county, and the manner in
which they had been drought here in irons,
and cast into jail until their bail could como
after them. The Judge viewed the offense,
however, as an aggravated one, and was dis i
posed to send defendants to Jail. He imposed
the highest money penalty permitted by the
