for the accession, were enjoyed by all. Hon.

ALL OFF TIME.
Owing to the burning of the Mullen tun.

Butte mail and all that comes over the U.

The four companies OF the Third Infantry

Fort Smelling and they will be replaced by
four companies OF the Twenty-fifth Infan-

with very general approval among the
town people, and tits said the officers OF
this post are not overioyed at the pros
poets.
SHRINKING DUTY.
A man by the name Of Burke, who de-
serted from Fort Ellis two or three years
ago was captured by the efficient sheriff o
this county few days ago. It is rumored
that there are number OF ex-soldier boys
about Missoula who left Fort Ellis without
a permit and if they are not prepared to
take trip to Fort Smelling they had better
seek more congenial cline.

said the President had thrown the gauntlet
at the feet of protection and stood boldly
up as the champion of free trade. He criti-
cized the bill as crippling where it should
support, and tearing down where it should
build up. Tho farming industry had
greater interest in protection than any
other industry in the country; the applica-
tion OF free trade or OF such reduction OF
tariff as would throw out OF employ
ment the non-agriculturalist, would be a
blow that the farmer would feel deeply. He
warned the laboring man against any
party, President or law-maker, whose acts
n q comparative way it would paralyze
Industries of their own
country. Gallinger, OF New Hampshire, OPP
posed the bill and at the conclusion Of his
address the committee rose and the House
adjourned.

DR.. E. S. Donaldson, his health gradu-
ally failing until about one week since,
when it became apparent that his work
was done. As a pioneer minister he
endured many privations, but being
possessed of an indominitable will and
perseverance, he overcame all obsta-
cles carrying the Bible into thousands
of homes, planting and building many
churches in the forests of Wisconsin
and upon the plains Of Dakota where
at the age of three score and ten he
organized four churches, and built a
house of worship. 1t was his greatest
delight to work for the Lord, while life
lasted. and well did he fulfil that pur-
pose. An earnest christian, kind and
loving father and friend, has been call
ed home, where he "rests from his
labors, and hIs works do follow him.

NOT TASCOTT.

Considerable excitement was created
in this city on Monday over the report
and arrest of a person who was sup
posed TO be the notorious Tascott-the
murderer of Mr.. Smell of Chicago. The
facts i'll the case are about as follows:
Mr.. j. n. Palmer, of Boston, Mass,
a man who has travelled this and other
countries a great deal as an agent found
himself broke and went to work in a
logging camp for III. d. Gerth, near
Scranton, a station on the Green Bay
railroad, in this county. He is a man
of IS years, but looks to be younger, he
is rather tall and slim with brown
mustache and heavy head of hair, fair
complexion with round face and III
general might be taken for Tascott. He
is naturally bright and well read, and
would impress anyone that working in
the woods was not his proper place.
However man by name, L. w. She'll
hammer, thought he resembled the
greatly wanted TascOtt and hired out to
work for the same Mr.. H. D. Gerth
and asked to bunk with the said
Palmer. Some eight weeks past during
which the detective grew more and
more convinced that the man was really
Tascott. The gold filling in Tascott's s
teeth and the wound he carried on his
hip were the only two signs that the
detective had not satisfied himself on.
Palmer was about to leave for Minnea-
polls and the detective came to the
conclusion he must have him arrested
and did so. On examination before
Justice Cooper in Centralia Monday
last it was found that the prisoner had
neither scar on his hip or the gold
filling in his teeth, while all other signs
and resemblances might prove correct
with the exception of age. Palmer
claims that he is 3S years of age.
In conversation with Mr.. Palmer we
learn that he suspicioned this man
Shellhammer, during the eight weeks
and never satisfied his morbid curiosity
for his hand writing, marks on his body
or accounts of his travel. Yet he never
thought the detective took him for
Tascott, but thought he suspicioned
him probably of some other crime.
Mr.. Palmer says he was in Grand
Rapids five years ago selling holy
Bibles. The detective is supposed to
reside IN TaCrocca
