New Buildings Going Up.

Fred Whiteside & Bro, builders, re-
port that business is better this year
than any year previous in the city.
The buildings being erected are more
substantial and costly, and there is a
noticeable Improvement in everything
that is being done. Beside the build
ings that are under contract and in
course of construction, they have the
promise of lots more, and their force
of workmen will be kept busy through
out the building season. They have
recently taken contracts for the con-
struction of buildings for the follow
ing:
Charles Young, brick dwelling; B.
Vreeland, brick dwelling; L. A. Huff:
man. brick store; and frame dwelling
houses for John Boiling, Mr.. Trus.
colt, P. Aitchison, John Gibbs, Mr..
McAlister, Charles Kelly and frame
addition to Ullman & Schmalsle's store.
The aggregate cost of these bnild.
ings is $4,000.

erance people of Miles City have no
design to injure any, but to do good to
all. They desire to induce all to think
upon the matter, not only those who
drink, but those who sell. In the
forum of each mans conscience let thu
decision be made. All are neighbour.
many are friends, none desire to injuro
his neighbor. The union asks that its
meetings be attended by all. The
temperance question has been argued
long, and all men woman and chill

temperance people claim. The public
mind is convinced, the heart and right
feeling need only to be reached.

Capture of Horse Thieves

About the 18th Of last February Mr..
j. w. Chapman of this city had three
horses stolen and Mr.. S. II. Orr had
one taken from their ranch. Through
the efforts of Territorial Stock Inspec-
tor j. l.. Cox, of Miles City, the horses
have been recovered, the thieves cap
tured and brought to this city. Their
names are Henry Myers and J. B.
Moore, both young men, apparently
not over q years Of age, but old in
crime, both having weakness for
horse flesh and both having served q
term ip the territorial penitentiary for
horse stealing. They were brought
before Justice Lippincott this after
noon and waived an examination.
Two Of the horses were found at Liv.
ingston and two on the Crow reserva-
ton. Those at Livingston were still
in the possession of the young man,
but the other two had been sold or
traded off to the Indians. Mr.. Chap
man will go down for his horses in q
few days. The capture of these horse
thieves has led to the discovery of the
parties implicated in the burning of
Saville's barn by which he lost large
number of cows and considerable other
property. Myers has confessed that

An S-year-old boy of Pittsburg has
been arrested for numbering his play
fellow. While newspapers continue
to fill their columns with all the muir
ders and crimes of every class that can
be raked together from all Christen-

lands, we can expect nothing better
from the youth who read them. 1t
has been said that every public exc
cution sows the seeds of more than one
murder. No good can come from the
everlasting panorama OF murderers
aud assassins which are paraded
through the columns of our enter
prising journals with photographs
and pen sketches of them and their
crimes. The sovereigns of the various
countries have congratulated their
subjects that the nations are at peace
with each other, and yet blood flows

IL is the intention to inaugurate the
lights into the city as soon as arrange
ments can be made for customers.
There will not be much trouble in
this, however, as the cost will be very
little more than that of the kerosene
used in the larger stores. They will
be invaluable for lighting the city,
and will give tone to it. The sam
pies received are of a sixteen-eandle
power light and 2OO-candle power
light. They are provided with a
switch so that limited number can
be used.

Gated herself from the coffin and told her
friends that the end of the world was sched-

die at dawn. Her death ensued as predict
