A Youthful Runaway.

Under the abovecaption the Independent
OF the 4th instant has the following con-
corning a VAUDEVILLE boy: ION Sunday a
lot OF tramps were found sleeping in a box
car at the depot and among the number
was a boy about IL or IL years old. The
whole party was .arrested. The boy said
he was q son of Michael McNulty, Of Walk
erville, that he had runaway on the twenty
ninth, having got in with some
hangers-on about the circus and knocked
about q few days until they
reached Helena. City Marshal Sims told
the circumstances to Joseph NJ. Venable, OF
Butte, and Mr.. Venable ~telegraphed the
father, who replied to hold the boy until
the arrival OF Sheriff Sullivan, who was to
arrive on other business yesterday. The
Sheriff did not come, however. and MI.
Venabla himself started home with the
boy last evening. The youthful wait said
he had had enough OF tramping and was
very willing to 60 home"
The boy came as far as Deer Lodge in
charge of Mr.. Venable, where the latter was
compelled to leave the train to transact
Nulty assured Mr.. Venable that he was
anxious to get home and would 20 there az
soon az he arrived at Butte. But it ap.
pears the boy changed his mind for he has
not yet put in appearance at his home.
His father has and is still making diigent
search for the lad, and having failed to dis
cover his whereabouts, he advertises in
another column for information concern
ing him. Any person knowing where the
| boy can be found would confer a favor upon
| the distressed family by sending such in
| formation to Mr.. MichaelM cNulty, Walker
Vile.

Come to the Front.

Messrs. John Mccormick, John Jolly and
g. w. Newkirk hava been selected as a com
mittee to wait upon the business men OF
Butte and vicinity and solicit subscrip-
tons for the August races. !, Thes&entlemen
have started out on, their mission. 1t is
hardly necessary to remind the shrewd
business men of the city OF their duty in
this matter. The West Side Racing Asso-
citation is composed of some of our most
prominent and wealthiest citizens and they
propose that nothing shall be left undone
to make the meeting OF the Association
q success in every particular. With this
object in view they have from their wi
means expended 100000 in buildings and
other improvements upon the track and to-
day the Butte race course is probably bet
ter equipped than any other track in the
Northwest. This expenditure has been
made for the public good. They do not
expect to make a cent by their outlay OF
money, hut they do expect that those who
will reap the benefits of their investment
will, when called upon, contribute literally
toward carrying the races to a successful
termination.
The meeting will attract several hundred
people from different points in the Terri.
tory and from contiguous Territories to
this city. These visitors will come with
money to spend, and they usually spend it
with a prodigal hand. At the least calcu-
lation they will throw $4,000 to $4,000
in circulation, and cause the digging up"
of as much more by the residents OF the
city and vicinity. Butte business men IN
derstand these things, and know that great
racing meetings are sources of profit to
them. As they do not expect the very
liberal gentlemen composing the Associa'
ton to bear all the expenses necessary to
carry out the meeting in q style common
surate with the Importance OF the city and
the occasion, they will not withhold their
aid in the enterprise.
At the present writing there are nearly
100 horses upon the grounds and 200
men who have them in charge. Additions
are daily being made to these numbers.
The most noted flyers from the south and
west will contend for the purses held up by
the association. If this meeting be made
q success, successful ones will follow. This
is a self-evident fact, hence our business
men should open wide their purses and
give this tho first meeting of the associa.
ton a send off that will encourage tue
members to still greater efforts in the tu-
ture. There is no reason why the meeting
Of the West Side Racing Association should
not be as popular and as largely attended
as those held by other associations in the
Northwest. Let every business man in the
city come to the front with q liberal con-
tribution and they will surpass them all.

Lynn and Smith.

The much-mooted twenty-round glove
contest between Billy Lynn, Of Butte, and
Harry Smith, of California, will take place
next Wednesday evening at the Grand
Opera House, and it promises to be one Of
the most exciting events of it's kind ever
Witnessed in Butte. The men met in a
ten-rounds contest two weeks ago at the
Pavilion, and thoss..who witnessed theirper-
formance were unanimous in ~pronouncing
it q battle Of plucky and evenly-matched
men. Lynn was declared tho victor mt the
end Of the seventh round, Smith-who had
arrived here only a few days previously
from Portland, Oregon-fnding his breath
ing apparatus unable to Withstand
the demands of this altitude. Smiths
hackers felt confident that with
a few weeks training their man would be
able to stand up as long as Lynn, how
ever. and backed their confidence with q
challenge to a twenty-round contest for
$500 a aide. Lynn's hackers Immediately
accepted the def and posted their money.
and Mr.. Dan Tewey, Of the Southern Hotel,
o holds $1,000, with Instructions to
give it to the winner of next Wednesday
nights battle. Betting is quite lively on
the result, and q large amount OF money
will be won and lost with the referees de-
cision. Both Lynn and Smith are in hard
training, and both are calmly confident Of
victory.

A Canadian Purchases 800 Worth and
Gets Brick for His Pains.

0etS . Brick for HIS Pains.
BosroN, August 5.-M. NJ. Stewart, Of
Caledonia, Prince Edwards Island, re-
ceived a circular letter a short time ago
from New York, in which the writer stated
that he was in o position where he could
supply him with any amount Of counter
felt money at remarkably low rates. He
informed a number of his neighbors OF
the scheme, who also became interested in
it. They held a secret meeting one night
! at which $3.50 was subscribed. and Stew
/ art was selected to 60 to New York to pur-
chase the money.
Three or four days ago he met the ''green-
goods" merchants, according to agree
ment, at the Sandford Hotel. The New
Workers gave their names as Philip Kreiger
and Thomas Anderson, OF No. 391 East
Tenth street. The next day Stewart
went to No. 391 East Tenth
street. where the sharp showed him
the goods. After examining the money
he agreed to buy 500 worth. The money
was counted out and placed in Stewards
valve, which was then set on q desk
| against the wall. One OF the sharpers then
engaged Stewart in conversation and Of
fered to give him back $25 to spend about
town. While Stewart was conversing with
the sharper the latter's pal, who was in the
next ROOM, opened a panel, took the bag,
abstracted the bills, which were good
money, substituted a similar package and
then returned the valise.
At the suggestion OF the sharpers Steware
sent the valise to Boston by the Adams
Express. He arrived in this city this morn
ing and called for the valise. He took the
bag and eagerly opened it. There was
nothing in it but a brick.

A NEW DEPARTURE.
A Through Train With Pullman Sleep
ers From Butte to St. Paul.

A new departure in railroading between
Butte and Eastern points was ~inaugurated
yesterday when the time schedule of the
Montana Union went into effect. Several
Helena parties who left the Capital City in
the morning took their dinner in Butte and
returned home in time for their evening
meal. But the most noticeable and i'm.
portant change effected by the widening oi
the track between Butte and Garrison
was the departure last evening
of a standard gauge train with a Pullman
sleeper for st. Paul. Under the new arrange
ment passengers from Butte, Anaconda,
Deer Lodge and other points on the West
Side can go to St.. Paul without changing
cars, or delay upon the road. 49,.

Packer, the Colorado Man-Eater, Sen
tsnced to Forty Years.
DENVER, August 5.-The second trial OF
Alfred Packer, better known as the man.
eater, was concluded at Gu~nnisonlast night.
The jury after being out three hours re-
turned a verdict of guilty OF granddaughter
on the five counts as charged in the indict:
ment, and to-day Judge Harrison sentenced
him to forty years in the ~penitent'ary, or
eight years for each man it is supposed he
murdered. The crime Packer ID charged
with is one OF the most horrible on
record, and it 10 probable that more
excitement was created over his acts OF
cannibalism at the time OF the discovery
than over any other crime committed
in America during the last half cen
tury. During the early part OF the
| Winter 1873, Packer, in company with nv
prospectors, Israel Swan, Wilson Bell,
George Noon, Frank Muller, and James
| Humphreys started from Bingham, Utah
Territory to the new mining district in the
San Juan country. The winter was severe
