MASKED MEN AGAIN.
They Exhibit Themselves In South
Butte.

Butte Town Talk
Last evening party of four masked
men entered Mrs. Mary Boland's
formerly Mrs. Kent's) boarding
house at South Butte aud proceeded
to the room occupied by William
Shadwell, a son of Mrs. Shadwell,
who is proprietress of the Southern
Hotel Oh East Broadway. They &C.
cused the young man of stealing the
$50 lost by John Lacy, as described in
last evenings Town Talk. He de-
MED the accusation but they per-
sisted and threatened to string him up
it he did not disgorge. At this stage
the landlady started out to call help,
but found the house fastened and
guarded by other masked men, and
she was threatened with being shot
if she raised any alarm or interfered
with the disgraceful work that was
going on. Meanwhile Shadwell con-
tinued to deny all knowledge of what
became of Lacy's money, and his as
sailants departed after warming him
to leave town before this evening on
pain of being strung up Or otherwise
harshly dealt with. Shadwell says he
will not leave. 1t is also averred that
on the evening of the day Lacy re-
ceived the money in question he was
seen to spend considerable sum, and
that he was drinking.
This business of making threats
and doing bodily injury from under
the cover of masks Is becoming dis
gracefully frequent in Butte. If one
or more of such offenders could be
caught we would heartily urge that
the law deal with him as severely as
permitted. There is absolutely no
need of lynch law in such matters
and every instance of its operation is
an incentive to lawless outrages.

THE ANTI.CHINESE LEAGUE.
1t will Meet Saturday Evening oil
This Week, and Organize for Ell.
fectiye Work,

1t will Meet Saturday Evening Of
This Week, and Organize for En-
fective Work.
There will be a meeting, in HALEY
Theater, on Saturday evening of this
week, for the purpose of thoroughly
organizing an Anti-Chinese League.
Messrs. Hawley, Ganahl, Waldron,
and Ruick were expected to address
the meeting; but Mr.. Ruick will
doubtless, owing to his recent be-
reavement, be unable to attend. Mr..
Hawley is in Boise, but will be on
hand, if he possibly can. There will
be no lack of speakers, however.
The meeting will be enlivened by
the presence of the Haley Band,
which has volunteered for the occa
sion; and Uncle Jimmy Crosslin hav-
ing contributed the wood, there will
be three huge bonfres to light the
way to the hall.
The theater will be we'll warmed
and lighted, and the meeting will
doubtless be very numerously attend
ed and enthusiastic.
In this connection the TIMES is re-
quested to state that a well-known
citizen left for Salt Lake City, three
or four days ago, to purchase the ma
chinery needed for a steam laundry,
and that this new enterprise will be
got ready as soon as practicable.

Use OF Power at q Dist ance.

French experiments on the trans.
mission of power by electricity have
resulted less successfully than was
hoped. Theoretically the plan is fea.
sible, but it is found to be more eco.
nomical and practicable for manufac-
turing purposes to use the power di'
rectly at the source of supply. Mod
ern railway facilities make it cheaper
to transport goods than power, with
its attendant loss of so per cent.-not
to mention its uncertainties.

Good Gold District.

JOLn Casey, one Of DCs CAuezls' oldest citizens, Is visiting Tombstone. In con versatiOn with an Epitaph reporter NIT. Casey expressed the greatest confidence III the ultimate success of that district. He says the Cooper Brothers are Opernt- ing steam arrastra with success. Jack Fleming Is also running a ten-stamp mil with splendid results, and all ID all, the camp Is beginning 10 have little boom of its own. Dos Cabezss, It Is tine opinion of the Epitaph, will at nc dis tant day be one Of the most successful mining camps on the Pacific coast, 1t has the material to make 1t such, and with proper handling on the part of the miDe owners will undoubtedly become q great bullion producer. The EPitaph wishes the old camp success, It has seen days Of gloom and diversity, has had many serious drawbacks over which its people have had no control. Truth con- pels us to say that many of the failures occurring ID this unfortunate little town have been occasioned by bad manage ment on the part of its citizens, but time snd experience has taught many of them wisdom, and now capital can find easy terms and safe investment m ihe place. In conclusion the EpItaph will say that as for ability to remaln under -erious difficulties the inhabitants oi Dos Csbezas Gs are conspicuous ex- amples in this directioH.-l tombstone Epitapb.

proved. This being the fact, and suoh the situation of the case, l respectfully submit my opinion that the order Tor second and enlarged survey, which would result in further reservation of public lands, was without adequate basis, and that the carrying out of such order would be Q derogstioD Ot public rights and private interests. Claimants are not the only parties m interest; the United States are interested; the InhRo- i!ants of the land are interested. Claim ants cannot be injured by postPonlng the supplementary survey until, at least, Congress shall justify II by con- firmation of the exaggerated and the apparently unsupported claim for addi- tional quantity. But much inIury may follow an act which would imply an ex- ecutive recognition of right which the department has not recognized.
 I respectfully recommend that the order of additional survey be revoked.
 Very respectfully.

A Strong Man.

Out from the depths of obscurity there has come forth man, now m this city, who is probably destined to become e modern Hercules. His size and ap- pearauce give no idea of the iron mus cles with which he is gifted, as he IS but an ordinary looking person, Of me- dium size and weighs only l6O pounds. His name is Maxime Dantes, native of Chihuahua, Mexico. He came to Tue son several months ago since which time he has been engaged in such labor ss he could turn his hand to that would yield him slivelihoOd. He has never had days training in his life, and yet, when hls wonderful strength became known only last week, be became the center of at- traction at the athletic entertainment on Friday night, aI the Park Ihester.
 One of the feats he performs IS that O, breaking in two a tive-incL square piece of wood, about three feet long, lald across two chairs, with his naked list. He will advance rapidly to the sus- pended wood, with uplifted hand, and bring down his fist like a cannon ball upon it, breaking the wood instantly.
 He then placed SIX heavy men, Rggre- gatiug about l2O0 pounds. on a table, and he raised them up easily from the floor with his shoulders. He says he can lift nearly 1890 pounds in this way.
 Another feet WAS that of bending a five-eights rod Of iron by stroke over the extended bare forearm, which seem ed to have been very easily accomplish ed and caused only small temporary swelling.
 HyThere are other simple but equally startling feats of strength aud muscular hardness that he can accomplish with equal facility. but these were the only ones exhibited on Friday night.
 As before mentioned, this remarkable man has had DO training tending .o de- Yelop bis strength or to give him ad- vantageous points iu performing his wonders. He IS a modest and quiet person Of simple habit-, almost uucOn- scious of the great attraction he would make to some large circus or athletic performances, and some enterprising manager will yet recognize ID him Q val uable addition tO his exhibition of won deIs.

Apache TcrtureS.

When the Apaches capture n white man, woman or child, they first strip them of their apparel, tie their hands, and If in a hurry lead them with roIe at R rapid speed over rough trails for long distances. Camping, they lash their prisoner tight, to cactus for the night. On the march they will tauut you m your own language. asking you II you prefer carriage tO riie in. Dur Ins the night while you would be lashed naked to prickly cactus, the boy ApacheS would shoot their arrows st you and approach and stick them into you; aud then approach again and pull them out oi your flesh. Spme ot these young Gends, bolder than the rest, would approach and cut of your ears.
 When the time for yunr tor;Urou> death arrived. they would cause a rat tlesnske to bite you in the face. Then they would place a quantity of burning coGls beneath your .eet, and with pin would be followed by skinning your arms and legs, then taking of your scalp and skipping II Tn your fsse.
 During all this time the squaws would act like demons, committing nGmeless mul44aNlpIc-
 1T such a method az the above should not be adopted, they would extend you on the ground and drive a pole or whit fistree through yoa from end to end: or they would hang you by the feet to the limb of tree and build fire under your head.
 The entire variety of their tortures IS only known to themselves, and the tor lures performed by the squsws are of such description ss to prevent their being published ID any newspaper.
 Another method of torture after mu- tilstion Is to bury the victim alive il the solid earth up to the neck. and beat his head of with clubs, or leave him thus helpless to die.
 These are only few of the many tor turous deaths inflicted by the Apsches; sud many persons who are exposed ID their vicinity carry deringer pistols, with which to blow out their own brsIns, in case they are surprised. and have time to do so before they are in the grasp Of the iends.-Tombstone Democrat.
