The New Orse.as MarAesers

An execution took place in Neu Orleans las, Friday which was one oi the most remarkable that has eve, occurred in the history of the country. IL vas remarkable both from the cncum- st,nces attending It and the social stand ing of the v.ctimS As briefy outlined in telegraph report the story is as fol- lows:
 The crime for which Ford and Murphy were hanged is without a parallel in the history of New Orleans. The high position of the accused and those asso- ciated with them, the bol6ness and audacity of the crime itself, and the social, political and financial influences brought to bear to retard and divert justice, made the iriAla duel between the state on one hand and the defendants sn the other. The central figure in the tragedy was Judge Thomas I. Ford, late recorder of the city of New Orleans, and now serving out tweny years sentence in the pen.entisry for the part he played n the murder. Ford the condemned man. is brother of the judge, and Murphy was an officer of Judge Ford's court. The trial showed that Judge Ford, his brother, and five officers of his court were implicated iu the murder.
 At 7:3o Friday morning, tie date fixed for the execution, when the keeper ven, 10 call the condemned men he could not rouse them. Physicians were hastily summoned ard pronounced them under the influence of belladonna Every effort was made to restore them to consciousness. At 10 o'clock Mur- phy had rallied a little, but Ford was still unconscious.
 The sheriff asked the governor of Louisiana: "Should they not revive before the hour fixed, shall l execute the warrants notwithstanding" The governor replied: "Yes; go on with the executions Csrry out the warrants"
 At Is;3o o'clock Sheriff Butler, accompanied by several subordinate officials proceeded to the cell of tn 6 where the bodies of the doomed men snll lay apparently lifeless Under the physicians care the forms were carefully lifted from their recum- bent positions and borne 10 the scaffold amid profound silence. The ghastly bodies were carried up the steps to the plank of the horrible platform, and held in erect positions while the fatal nooses were drawn over and around their necks, no signs of life being observable In either of the men. When the last sad rites had been performed, and when the trap vas sprung by an unseen hand and their bodies were launched into eternity, a hush fell upon the little group of un- willing spectators.

"LOng Feather" or "Straight Arrow"

"Long Feather" or ''Straight Arrow"
We learn that J. w. Proctor, who will
be remembered as the big buckskinned
hunter and specimen gatherer who helped
make things interesting around Living
ston for awhile last winter, IS coming to
Montana in few weeks on a regular
hunting trip. Proctor is one of the
acharacters" that we meet now and then
and is one of the regular western type.
He has put in a great many years scout
ing, hunting and rustling in Dakota and
Montana, is fine shot and according to
a St. Paul gentlemen who spent a
few weeks in the mountains with him last
fall, better man for a guide and COM
parion on hunting expedition cannot he
found. Among the various Indian tribes
with whom he is we'll acquainted
he is known as Long Feather,
Straight Arrow or other sobri-
quets. For two or three years he has
been stuck on the wild-we st-show busi-
ness and during the summer has been
running one at St. Paul and Minniehaha
Falls. He goes about the streets Of that
metropolis every day, clad in a gaudy
suit of buckskin and big gold enbroid-
cred sombrero with gold nuggets on his
shirt and big pair Of clanking spurs on
his boots starting glorious day dreams of
Indian and bear fights and all the romance
of life of adventure IN the free untram-
meled west, within the brain of the dime
noveI-reading boy and exciting the curl
Gus wonder of maidens of the same age.
We understand that he will head for
Western Montana and Idaho and will
probably strike Livingston en- route. He
will be accompanied by number of
eastern sportsmen who want the benefit OF
his skill and experience.

THE COMING OF COLE.

Will X. Peck, Coles special agent, was
in the city yesterday completing arrange
ments for the appearance of Coles mon
ster attractions on Monday, August 9th.
Mr.. Peck said "the seasons outlook is
splendid, and the business SC far has been
enormous. We are now en- route to the
Pacific coast and Australia This seasons
equipment is away ahead of anything
ever devised in the circus business. Three
railroad trains are owned by Mr.. Cole,
and the tent which covers the great ag-
gregation of circus, menagerie, hippo
drome and Wild West is fifty feet longer
than any other in the world"
"How many men and horses have you?'
was asked.
"We have 531 men, $50 horses. We
run fifty advance men and four advertis-
ing cars. Cole pays newspapers and
printing offices 100000 a year. But
the list of attractions we offer this season
is of course the great card. In addition
to our double ring circus and menagerie,
we have secured at a great expense DR..
Carver, the wizard rifle revolver shot and
his .swild west'' combination. The hip
podrome is special feature of the ring
and ON its ring stud of 100000 worth
of blooled horses run in the chariot: and
Jockey races. A grand street parade-will
be given through the principal streets at
| 10 a. m. 1t is carnival of substantial
beauty" and over one mile in length. But
come out and see for yourself. Good bye

An lllustriOus Man Dies.

Samuel J. Tilden died peacefully at
Greystone, New York, on Wednesday
morning at 8:43. There were present
with him Drs. Chas. E. Simonds and
Samuel Swift and his niece, Miss Gould.
His death was entirely unexpected, and
was caused by the failure of his heart,
followed by an acute attack of diarrhea
and nausea. The flags in New York
and other places in the state are at half
mast out of his respect for Tilden.
Samuel Jones Tilden is native of
Columbia county, New York, where he
was born February Z, 1914, and was Y
years Of age when he died. He was for
his time highly educated in the classics,
being graduate of Yale college. Then
after a thorough course of lectures and
reading he was admitted to the bar at
the age of p. During the Polk presi-
Dental campaign he edited the New
York News, and made of it political
power. After Folks administration he
ceased his editorial labors and again de-
voted himself to legal practice. Short
ly afterwards he was elected to the
legislature and served several terms al
most consecutively, when he was de-
feated for attorney general, and again
returned to law, in which he achieved
great distinction. In law, politics and
newspapers he acquired deep insight
into the affairs of men, and when the
Tweed ring had the municipality throt-
tied, the courts corrupted and the legis-
ture bribed to do it's bidding, Tilden led
crusade against its cohorts at corrup-
ton and drove the ringleaders into
prison or exile. In 1874 he defeated
John A. Dix for governor and at once
grappled with the canal ring and over
threw that organization. This brought
him to the attention of the nation and
in 1879 he became the democratic can
didate for the presidency to which he
was elected by the popular vote but was
defrauded Of his rights by the electoral
commission. Had he urged his claims
to vindicacy in 1880 at Cincinnati,
when Hancock was nominated he would
have been the successor of His Fraud
ulency, r. B. Hayes. But he felt that
his health was too precious for the oner-
Gus duties of the presidency and per-
emptorily declined. His has been the
constitutional advice, SO to speak, OF the
party for years and his death will be
deeply deplored by the party.

Something About Sea Sc rpents.

Something About Sea 81 rpentS.
Notwithstanding the contirmatory re-
ports by those who allege they saw it,
there are many who will give no credence
to the story of the monster serpent stated
to have been discovered in the Park. His
high mucky-muck must indeed be spe-
cies of the sea serpentlne tribe which first
made its appearance east of Boston in
1875, and in the Mississippi below St.
Louis two years later on. Since then they
have been discovered in various places,
Lake Erie and Lake st. George both con-
tanning such levlathans. But the fever
of such discoveries has seized the west
ern mind, and the development of the
western country compares feebly with the
development of western fiction. Dakota
had its first aqueous serpent in Lake Kam-
cheska, after which discovery prominent
people of Fort Benton, whose word was
never doubted, saw with their own eyes a
specimen of the snake tribe in the lake in
the Sag. This happened last summer.
This one found in the Park compares fa-
vorably with those found in fresh water,
it being we'll known that salt water is more
productive for such Shiny creatures. But
the one seen below St. Louis will, perhaps,
be the last to be forgotten, Of those al
ready discovered. It came up the Mis-
sippi to four miles below st. Louis, flew
over into field, had fight with large
Durham bull, which, with one of its horns,
tore fin off the serpent. The latter get
ting the worst Of the fight flew back to the
river, and when it Topped in, the tide, Of
several feet, went some distance above St.
Louis. The Globe-Democrat devoted
nearly page to the affair, and the Asso-
ciated Press made use of about three
thousand words. The Globe Democrat
man who wrote the article, located the
man who saw the serpent fly into the field,
ETC., on certain street, giving the mum
Der of his house. Thousands of people
went to visit this man next day but were
unable to find him. The number of the
house was on vacant lot.
In an interview Superintendent Wear
said he intends putting four-inch tire
on the Park serpent when caught, and
rolling it out Of his domains.

the others are supposed to he in the cabin
of the yacht. Seven of the yacht party,
who were found clinging to the rigging
after she capsized, were rescued by a tug.
The name of the yacht was Sarah Craig.
There was a pleasure party on board
bound from Philadelphia for New York.
Seven of the party, six ladies and young
man were drowned. Nine men we're

An Interesting Pardon.

Independent: For some time past
very strong effort has been in progress
to secure pardon for John L. Pascoe,
serving a ten-years sentence in the Deer
Lodge penitentiary under conviction of
arson. About three years ago China
mans wash house at the Comet mine
was burned. Pascoe and two or three
others were charged with setting fire to
the place, and arrested. They were dis
charged on preliminary examination,
and for all but Pascoe that seems to
have ended the matter. Pascoe was in
dicted by the grand jury, and upon trial
the jury disagreed. Change of venue
was then taken to Lewis and Clarke
county, and Pascoe was convicted on
the testimony of two Cinnamon. He
was sentenced to ten years in the peni-
Tertiary and has served two years besides
the time he was in Jail awaiting trial.
His intirm mother in England, who had
been depending on him for support, has
vi 1dUc 1dlltll 1uVO NlASuhi-
stances. Efforts to secure a pardon for
him were begun, and Governor Hauser
was showered with letters from promi-
nent gentlemen all over the territory
who had known Pascoe, and asking
executive clemency in his behalf. The
governor granted these numerous pray
ers and Pascoe was granted full par
don. His freedom, which will lee re-
gained to-day, will be largely due to the
indefatigable abors to that end Of W.
j. Penrose, of the Centerville Mining
Journal, assisted materially by Capt. S.
r. Reynolds, of Butte. Mr.. Penrose
came over yesterday on the prosecution
of his own efforts and returned last eve
ming with Pascoe's pardon in his pocket.
He was almost as joyful over the sue
cess of his mission as the pardoned man
can himself be.
