mis- Ryan. it is said. receives an income of
over $50. 900 month from his several mines
in the Western states. The speedy devel-
Opment of the Russell mines is assured by
the prompt steps which have been taken by
this syndicate TO secure the building of the
line which has already been surveyed and
is now being located by Gen. Dodge and his
engineers. 1t is but eighteen miles to
Helena from Red Mountain. The line will
be built beyond these mines at Red Mountain
and develop other mineral lOdes. Opera
tons here have been confined in a measure
heretofore to the Red Mountain Tunnel
company's work. Among these are J. s.
Tooker. ex-territorial secretary and
THOMAS MERRILL OF ST. PAUL,
brother of ID. ID. Merrill of the St. Paul
Book and Stationary company.
Another rich mine is the Gloucester, some
seven miles from the Drum Summons; these
mines are owned by Boston company and
are superintended by II. W. Childs, who is
also one Of the owners. The organization
is known as the Montana Gold and Silver
Mining company.
Then there is the EIkbon in the Boulder
district. owned and operated by s. T. Hau-
ser, Z. s. Vowter. A. NJ. Hotter. John
Shaver and John Kinna. This is about
thirty-iye miles from Helena and tributary
thereto
And then there is the Lee Mountain right
opposite. John Caplice is the president of
this company, and he is backed by Boston
syndicate.
Then there is another group of mines
called the Homestake, located on Virginia
creek. about thirty-five miles from Helena,
owned By the Herschiield brothers OF the
First National bank, Henry Jacobs and
William Negus. This is good mine, and
has yielded 5000 net on small outlay
for working. Here is the result of five
months operations on the Homestake:

RocKPoRT. Ind, Jan. 31.-Stephen
Ellis, young farmer living three miles
from town. and a young man named Cisna,
who is here on a visit from Illinois. started
from town to the country last night and
when just leaving town became involved in
quarrel. during which Cisna was supposed
to have shot and killed Ellis. About mid
night Deputy Sheriff Bmkhardt and posse
arrested James Cisna for the murder, but
he soon proved his innocence, fastening the
crime upon Nicholas Hudson, a farmer liv-
ing eight miles from here on the Bonneville
road. Upon receiving the information the
sheriff and posse went at once to capture
Hudson. About o'clock this morning he
was at the farm of Alex Dickey. for whom
he was working The house was surrounded
and after waking the owner up and secur-
ing admittance Sheriff Burkhardt went to
the room Of Hudson and found him lying
in bed sound asleep. On the table at the
head of his bed lay revolver and small
axe. In the pocket of his coat were found
forty cartridges and a pair of brass
knuckles. AT first
HUDSON sTRENUoUsLY DENIED
all knowledge of the deed, but finally, un-
der pressure, confessed to the shooting.
The story. as told by Cisna, is to the effect
that several men were in a saloon just out
side of the city, drinking. and that Ellis
and Hudson became involved in quarrel.
AT first it was not supposed to be serious as
no blows were exchanged. As the conver-
sation grew warmer Hudson drew pistol
and shot at Ellis, the ball lodging in the
right breast, the ball passing entirely
through the body. Hudson was lodged
in Jail and will have his preliminary
hearing tomorrow. He is rough looking
and has an unsayory reputation. The re-
v0lver was purchased yesterday morning.
Showing it to several persons during the
day he remarked that no would use 1t be-
fore night. Early in the evening he drew
it on a Saloonkeeper in town. but was
quieted down. Ellis was peaceable man
and quiet citizen and has only been mar
ried two months. The citizens here are
greatly excited over the affair. and specula-
tiOn was rife upon the streets tonight as to
the ACCESSIBILITY of melting out summary
vengeance upon him. Hudson takes the
matter very coolly and said he expected to
get alb ut two years for it.

May a Ruling Elder be Moder-
ator of One of the Higher
Church Courts

In this question is compressed the sub
ject OF an overture to the last Assembly
from the Synod Of Virginia, which that
Synod had adopted, by vote of sixty
two to thirty.eight, and asked the As
sembly to adopt it and send it to the
Presbyteries for their action. The As
sembly adopted it by vote of sixty-eight
to forty-two, and the amendment pro
posed is now before the Presby soon
to convene. The amendment is to Form
of Government, Chap. ", sec. 3, par
IL, which reads, "The ruling elders pos
sess the same authority, in the courts Of
the Church, as the ministers Of the word &"
The amendment proposed is to add to
this clause the following: When, how
ever, a ruling elder is Moderator of a
Presbytery, Synod, or General Assembly
any official duty devolving on him, the
performance of which requires the exer-
else of the functions pertaining only to
the teaching elder, shall be RENTED by
him, for execution to such minister of the
word, being a member Of the court, as he
may select"
The author Of this overture respectfully
asks to present, through your columns,
for the consideration of members of the
Presbyteries, Q brief summary of views,
advocating the adoption Of this amend
ment by the Presbyteries,,
l. This amendment is not didactic but
explanatory. The author accepted the
word authority as meaning rule, sove-
reignty in government, dignity or legal
power (see Worcester's, and Latham 8
Johnson's Dictionaries). 1t is common
law that all the members Of deliberative
or judicial bodies have the same rights,
