HARDING. HELD.

Inc preliminary examination Of Thu,na.

! stage driver. on Nav 80. was held at tn,
court House on last Tuesday before JUS
tice Schnalhauscn. OF Glendale. W. S
Barbour conducted the examination of wit
nesseS on the part OF the Territory, and the
defendant, being without counsel, conduct.
ed his own case. The evidence elected at
the examination strongly pointed to Hard.
ing as the man who did the shooting. In
fact, some of the evidence was positive.
while the chain Of circu,ns,antial evidence
was very strong and well linked together.
and Of decidedly damaging character to
the prisoner, whose appearance in court
was not prepossessing. As is usual in all
preliminary examinations ct defendants
much irrelevant evidence was taken down
which in trial in the District Court
would be excluded. But as it is only the
province OF u committing magistrate to ex.
anime and find out whether there is prob
ably Il sufficient cause to held defendant,
latitude is given in this class Of examine.
tons in order to bring out the material
facts OF case. The evidence on the mar,
OF the people points strongly, but not I'm.
err'ng'y, to Harding as the perpe,ra,or Of
the murder. Harding made statement
in which he ene,eavored to account for his
whereabouts and for his absence from
Butte at the time OF the shooting, Nv stat.
ing that tie was at that time prospecting on
an iron lead His statement was cons;d.
erao'y mixed up, and was contradictory in
many respects. 1t is not the intention or
purpose of the TRIBUNE to try. convict
and condemn the defendant. That vii, BE-
the duty OF a higher court and Il Jury to
perform. On the conclusion of the te>ti.
mony Justice Schmalhausen held Harding
without bail. to await the action OF the
next grand jury, and the defendant was
committed TO the county Jail.

"STRAYED OR STOLEN"
\ Lively Chase After Horse Thieves,

Last week large number OF horses
twentv.seven l,ead--were missing from
the range near Twin Bridges, in Madison
County. The horses belonged to Judge
Lott, Jacob Wvrouck and others, and some
OF the animals were valuable. 1t was sun.
posed that there had been a wholesale haul
OF horses made BY horse thieves. and n
large number OF men were mounted and
getting the trail. started in pursuit OF the
band of horses, which to all appearances
had been driven up the Ruby Valley
The men in pursui: rode all over Southern
Montana, without getting on the trail of
the band, and gave up the pursuit. Some
OF the missing horses have since been
found. A note from Twin Bridges saws:
"From /. to IS head arc still missing.
The statement that the horses all returned
is false. Mr.. Wvrouck. the principal loser,
has given up all hopes of getting his
horses, and has called his men of the
chase. | am satisfied the horses have been
stolen or cached, awaiting reward"

WHAT WILL PRINTERS DO9
A Type.Setting Machine That Is
a Success.
One Man Can Do rs Much Work With II
~ Ten tho Old Way.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE first book
printed by type set by the new type
machine, owned by parties in this
city, has just made its appearance in
the market. The company was organized
ayear or more ego, but has been year
getting ready to manufacture the ma
chimes in considerable quantities. They
had first to make the tools with which to
make the machines. N " that this 10
done they can begin to turn them out by
the hundred. One lot of over hundred
machines is now being made. They will
cost somewhere from $500 to $500 apiece,
but will enable one man to do the work Of
ten in type setting. They work like type
writer, only that they can be worked at
a higher rate Of speed. The operators on
the machines now being used can produce
type at the rate of sixty words minute,
and with increased experience they expect
to get considerable higher rate. This
means, the friends of the machine say,
that from three to six men Will be able to
set up the type for the ordinary daily
paper. The machine casts the type line
at time, and when the paper is
printed the type are melted down and
the metal used again the next day.
There has been in the past twenty years q
wonderful increase in the facilities for pro-
ducing newspapers with great rapidity in
every departme I except type setting. In
this department. the old systems have con.
tinued to prevail until now, but If this ma
chine does what is claimed ior it it will
prove wonderful time saver in this par.
ticular and enab the publisher to lay
the news smoking hot before his readers

currence which it describes,
