a Horrible Tragedy.

w. S. Moore, a ranchman and stock
grower on the Benton road about forty
five miles from Helena is supposed to
have killed his wife and then sucided.
The Helena and Benton road passes di-
rectly in front of Moore's house. and on
Tuesday morning last a government am
bulance, driven by man named Reese, in
passing the ranch noticed the body of W.
S. Moore lying on the floor of the office,
the door of which was open. He dis
mounted and entered the house and was
Mortified to find the body of Mrs. Moore
lying in the doorway leading from the
office to the dining room. Both had evil
IDENTITY been killed by bullet wounds but
a short time previous. Reese reported
the matter on arriving at Helena, and
Coroner Brown started for the scene of
the tragedy. The coroner found Moore
lying upon the floor with a Winchester
TlilC uNucTncatil n1nl, Will Il Dtilct NoUIU
in the breast and one in the head, the
latter evidently inflicted by Lis own hand.
Mrs. Moore's wound consisted of a single
bullet hole in the right side near the lung.
The wound was not fatal in itself, but in
its course the bullet cut large artery and
the unfortunate woman bled to death.
Mr. and Mrs Moore had not been living
happily together for the past two years.
and from the manner in which the furni
ture of the house had been turned over and
tossed about it appeared that desperate
fight had ensued. 4 revolver was also
found on the floor with one chamber
empty and it is supposed that Mrs. Moore
fired the first shot and 1t took effect in
her husbands breast.

An Inhuman Parent

A heartrendering scene was presented
to the Boulderites says the Jefferson
County Sentinel, in the shape of a Mrs
Bray from Comet, who walked carelessly
into the butcher shop of Ryan & Leighton
and left beautiful little 3-year old boy
in Fred's care while she crossed the street
a moment on business. Her ''business'
proved to be to take the Helena coach
with babe in her arms, and leave the
little boy in the hands of strangers. AS
she was getting into the stage, the boy
began to cry, and rushed across the street
just in time to take one long and probably
last lingering look at his mother as she
passed down the road. The boys father
is at the Springs and the kind-hearted
landlord of that famous resort took the
little fellow in his wagon and started for
the childs father. 1t was certainly a
heart-rending scene. and many are the
conjectures as to what her reasons may be
for leaving her own flesh and blood to
wander among strangers as best he may.

Montana Climate.

The Union Star, Iowa, says: The
weather is so mild out in Montana that
the lovers of base ball are able to get out
on Sunday at Helena and play, the first
game of the season taking place last Sab
bath We should judge from daily read
ing the Helena Independent that Mon
tana' S crop of oranges. bananas and other
tropical fruits will this year be unusually
great. But joking aside, Montana, climat-
ically speaking, is great country, and
when the government makes up its mind
that lousy, dirty, good-ior-nothing In
dian does not quite need a section of land
to train his pony on, and throws the Crow
and other reservations open to settlement,
Montana will astonish the natives of the
east in an agricultural sense.

The Fertility Of Our Soil.

G.. A. Broadwater of Helena, while in
st. Paul Il few days ago made the remark
that Montana was the most fertile terri
tory in the world. He had been giving
statistics to prove that as mining camp
and as mineral region the territory could
not be surpassed, so that his observation as
to the fertility of the soil was received by
his auditor with manifest incredulitv
"Why,' said Mr.. Broadwater, "a few
years ago was one of the judges at a
county fair in that territory Our duties
included the awarding of a prize to the
farmer raising the greatest amount of oats
on a ten-acre field. The farms were
down IN the valley of the river. We
visited them, and found the oats SO thick
that at times it was impossible to get
through. The oats in one field yielded
1O3 bushels to the acre Why, wheat in
those valleys often averages fifty bushels
to the acre"

The Montana Tin Mines

Madisonian Readers will remembe,
that some time ago we reported the dis
covery of a tin mine near the upper Ruby
by Major J. B. Peck. The major was in
Virginia City this week. having with him
samples of the ore from the mines, and
assays which show it to contain seven and
one tenth per cent of tin, with a small per
centage of gold and silver, aggregating in
value about $43 per ton. The mines are
named the Belmont and Globe. and are
located near Raymond's Belmont Park on
the Sweetwater A joint stock company,
known as the Montana Tin Mining COM
pany, has been incorporated under the
laws of Montana and this company is now
engaged in the development of the mines.
The capital stock of the company is $2,
100000, in 100000 shares of $40 each.
Hon. B. F. White of Dillon is president of
the company. Major Peck informs us that
the mines are being opened by three tun-
nels, one of which will, by the end of July,
be 45O feet from the surface of the mine.
The ore body is said to be large and fully
as good at the present stage of develop
ment as any that has ever been found in
the mine. Sufficient of the stock to secure
working capital is to be sold, and Major
Peck is sanguine that the certificates of
the company will command face value on
the stock market before the year is ended.

The Railroad Rate War.

The latest cut in passenger rates is the
announcement of third class ticket from
San Francisco, as follows: To Omaha and
Kansas City, $3.50; Chicago, $3.50;
New York, $3.50; Boston, $3O.5O.
At meeting of the lines that composed

the present the Chicago lines should act
in unison and bill all freight at 80 per
cent of the old tariff The heavy Califor-
MIA shippers complain about the war be
cause, they say, they have stocked up
heavily at the old frei ght rates, and now
the rates being SO very low, the small mer
chants, instead Of buying of Pacific coast
wholesalers, buy in New York and under
sell the heavy men who have large stocks.

The party who did the shooting is known
as J. Wells, a COW boy. 1t was at dance,
Wells and the deceased, name not known,

morning, unmolested, when he saddled up

Easily Satisfied.

The half-Dreeds of St. Lawrence, head
quarters of the late rebellion under Louis
Riel, held public meeting at Winnipeg
Saturday. 1t was entirely non-polltical.
Leading men from all French parishes were
present Everything passed of harmon
iously, the maine of Riel not even once
being mentioned. A series of resolutions
were passed thanking the government, in
warmest terms, for the generous and
humane manner in which they had been
treated since the unfortunate occurrences
last spring and for the promptitude with
which the government had sent relief to
the destitute, food and clothing furnished
them, and with remuncrative employment
in freighting. Harmony has been restored
with the mounted police. Among those
present were convicts lately released from
the penitentiary. They will ask the gov
ernment for free grants of their lands,
basing the claims on being its original
possessers; asking that reserves be set
aside for hay and wood; that INDECENT
half breeds be assisted with cattle, imple-
ments and seed; that scrip be granted !;
that an industrial school be established in
each district for the benefit of half-breed
children; that amnesty be extended to
half breeds in prison and across the border;
that detachment of police be stationed
in international district; that naturaliza-
ton be made more accessible and that
electoral districts be erected in the French
settlements. They express confidence in
the good disposition of the government to
deal justly with them in the future.
