The Cronin Case.

CHICAGO, Oct. 26.-The Cronin case
was resumed this morning. Evidence
was continued showing the character of
the wounds and the cause of death. Pat
Denan, livery stable keeper, then testi-
fed that Coughlin, one of the prisoners,
engaged horse and buggy for friend
the day Cronin was murdered. This
friend came in the evening and took out
a white horse and a buggy. The next
morning Coughlin cautioned witness not
to say anything about his connection with
the matter as it was known that he and
Cronin were not friends and it might get
him (Coughlin) into trouble. This is the
horse and buggy in which Cronin was
carried to his death.

Caught a Murderer.

DENVER, Oct. &C. w. Hatch of
Boston was arrested here last night by
the sheriff of Kit Carson county, Colora-
do, on an indictment charging him with
the murder of Henry Hatch, his uncle,
near Burlington, Colorado, on the night
of April 81.
Shortly after the murder he was ar
rested in Darlington, Michigan, returned
to Burlington, stood preliminary trial
and was acquitted.
The present grand jury took up the
case and, hearing of this, Hatch immedi
ately came west to meet any charges and
was in this city when the true bill was
found. He at once telegraphed the Off
GERS to come here and take him in charge
The prisoner is now in the county jail.
If the case is bailablc he will be re
leased on bonds; if not he suffers incar
ceration until the next regular term o
court at Burlington, which is in October

James j. Hill and Party Arrive.


Yesterday morning, as previously an
nounced to our readers, the magnates Of
the Great Northern railway reached our
city from St. Paul. Besides Mr.. Hill are
General Manager Mohler and Col. Shelby
of the traffic department; also Mr.. Per-
kins, president of the Burlington and
Quincy; Mr.. Harris, vice president c. B.
& N; Mr.. Bligh, attorney for G. B. & O.,
and Peter Seims, contractor of the Belt
Mountain railway.
Soon after their arrival they proceeded
to the Sand Coulee coal mines, with the
excellent management and. general out
look of which they were exceedingly
we'll pleased.
Returning to the city they took light
ming glimpse at the location of the dan
and Great Boston and Montana smelter
saw the falls, the smelter, the Giant
spring and admired the heavenly air ane
landscape and returned for dinner, which
was served on their private coach.
After a very cursory investigation an(
interview with Great Falls and her 10
liaths, about o'clock, p. H., they pro
ceeded on their winding way to Helena
where they will take swim in the grea
Broadwater pond-excelled only in mag
nituds by the "big pond" separating New
York from Ireland-and, after worship
ping at the shrine of the Olympia on sun
day evening in Helena, will return
Great Falls Monday and go on their wa
rejoicing toward the orient.

Connecticut Cider.

At her first election under the Sc
cret ballot system, Connecticut has
taken occasion to defeat prohibition
Strangely enough, the fatal blow seems
to have come from districts counted on
as friendly to total abstinence, regions,
in short, where the word is sometimes
pronounced 'pro-hy -bition." 1t was In
the house of its friends, in the rural dis
tricts, they say, that it met its death.
Without considering Connecticut's IA
vorite beverage, cider, the trainers of
the bill put together its clauses. Cider
was rashly included in the list of drink
ables forbidden. The election fell just
when the Connecticut farmers were har,
vesting a most abundant apple crop.
Their defamers do say that these farm.
ers sell whole lakes of cider every year
What is more, they tuck away into theil
cellar, SANDER reports, anywhere from
three to seventy-five barrels of it every
year, to keep the cold out in winter, the
heat out in summer, and to keep up the
spirits in hay and harvest time, and a
weddings and funerals. So when tht
farmers found cider was to be prohibit
ed, Connecticut gall rose in tidal wav'
and wiped out prohibition. Cider i
called "orchard tea" frequently. On
agriculturist is said to have remarked:
Suppose this ERE law passes what in Sam Hi
be goin' ter dew for mince pies this winterS N
cider, no pies, that's sartin."
They tell Of another that he spoke hi
mind in this wise:
'sThey've jest upset their hull consarned appl
cart. They can't work me fur no dumned old fox
ter 20 and bust up my business"

SAN Francisco, Oct 2G.-Jimmy Muir
phy of Australia and Dick Delaney of
New York, light weights, met accidently
at the Athlethic Club tonight. In fight
to finish for purse of $3.50, Murphy
forced the fighting from the start and in
the fourth round split Delaney's upper
lin, which caused blood to flow freely
In the eleventh round Delaney was
knocked out by blow on the neck.

London has population of over four
millions and quarter. Less than two
thirds of these are native Londoners
The rest are immigrants, either from
foreign countries or from other parts of
Great Britain. DIR. Camille, of Charing
Cross hospital, has been making a study
of vital statistics among native London
ers. He finds that the first generation of
city born people show signs of physical
weakness, the second generation are
stunted and dwarfed, while the family
dies out with the third. In crowded dis
tricts of the city, born and bred London
men grow only to an average height of
4 feet inches. Almost without excep-
tion men who attain success and become
distinguished in London life are those
who came into the city from outside,
usually from the country.
The history of London is the history
of all great cities. Their vigor, their en-
ergy, their power of achievement. their
population even, must be kept up from
outside. Great masses Of human beings
herded together drain all the ozone from
the atmosphere, so that full mental and
physical development is stunted. 1t is
the rarest exception that city life pro-
duces a great man. Itproduces stunted,
undergrown individuals among the poor,
or idle, reckless young dudes among the
rich, youths who throw to the winds the
millions their country bred fathers laid
up. Then some other country fellow
full of vim and hard sense, gathers VI
the millions in turn, while the former
owners go to the dogs, and so the pro
cess continues.
MOI 1t is in the country that grea
men are produced. They drift to tn
cities, their bodies full of natures owl
electric life, their souls full Of ambition
to achieve Cities are we'll enough as
field of effort for those who had thei
bringing up in the country, but they ar
not, they never can be, the cradle Q
greatness,

Another farm mortgage company h,

Another farm mortgage company has
failed. Everything touches bottom at
last. For many years agents In the
west have been lending money to farm
ers in Kansas and elsewhere at 10 per
cent. interest. The money was got from
eastern capitalists at and per cent.
On the margin between 8 and 10 per
cent. the agents made their living, and
both got their living off the farmer, who
had to make it back from the crops he
had not yet raised. Low prices, sick,
ness, or failure of his crops, were all
risks that the farmer had to take. AL
together, it is not strange that an eastern
farm mortgage company or two have
failed. 1t is probable some more may
fail. Farm prices have been remarkably
low for some years.

we were gratitied with call from Mai.
BALDWIN yesterday. The major has been
on tour through the region of Flathead
lake and the country to the north and east
ward. He speaks in glowing terms of
that region-says that, as soon as a rail
way can be built there,we shall get all of
our pine lumber and early vegetables
from that section. He tells almost fabu
lous stories of the size, quality and ex-
haustless quantities of white and yellow
pine, spruce, tamarac, hemlock and
white cedar; of a land Of broad acres,
deep rivers, rich soil, lakes filled with the
finest Of fish, climate mild and salubrious
abounding in elk, deer, antelope, grouse
chicken, prairie hens and every species
OF game, veritable Arcadia; the cream
of the northwest for farming, numbering
and stock-raising; land of deep mines,
of limitless coal measures, both bitumin-
GUS and anthracite; and all this, upon
the construction of the Pacific extension
to become tributary to Great Falls.
From the majors thorough acquaint.
ance with the country lying between the
Piegan agency-where he was for many
years stationed as Indian agent-and the
Flathead country, we take his ipse dixi
as final and conclusive of its value and
excellence.
This remarkable country is on the di
rect line from Great Falls to Whatcom
one of the best, if not altogether the bes
harbor on Puget sound and having goot
agricultural country at its back. At thi
point, or its vicinity, it is understood tina
the Great Northern railway will seek
Pacific terminus. On this line the entir,
route hence would lie through rich pas
toral, agricultural and timbered region
vast level areas Of heavily-timbered lan'
more valuable than the great forests o
Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York eve
were.
To this region will Great Falls look fo
her supply of lumber, at prices distancin
. all competitors. From thence will com
our coking and hard Goals; and with ou
own cheap coal, combined with our illim
table water-power, the beauty, greatnes
, and permanency of Great Falls is al
: sured

Boulanger is now that most grotesque
of all objects, hero without cent of
money. His friends refuse longer to
furnish funds wherewith he may pose as
great man on black charger. The
dashing general may even be forced to
work for living. This would be dire
calamity, but the world could still sur
vive it. The best thing for the defeated
hero to do now is to come to America
and be a floor walker in great metro
politan dry goods store. For the display
of both pose and dignity, there is no pro-
fession to compare with it in the known
world. Louis Philippe was a school
master for time. Let Boulanger, too
earn his living in adversely.

\ striking illustration of the precar

A striking illustration of the precari-
GUS living made by most actors is found
in the fact that Charles B. Bishop, the
comedian, who died during theatrical
performance recently, left a widow in
destitute circumstances. It was found
necessary to give benefit for her relief
at once. Yet her husband was 55 years
old, and had been more successful than
most actors of his time. He was tai
ented and uncommonly popular come
dian, and could secure engagements
with little trouble. Still he left his wife
destitute. If he had put into, say, the
grocery business the time and energy he
applied to the dramatic profession, he
might easily have been millionaire.

IRRIGATION.
OF this subject the governor treats at length
and makes some important recommendations.
He advocates the relegation of the entire matter
to state jurisdiction and urges that the control OF
all water courses and water rights be given to the
state of Montana. He also asks that all Of the
public domain in Montana susceptible OF irriga-
ton be- by act of Congress, donated to the state;
that the state be given power to dispose OF the If
rigable lands so that the proceeds from their sale
may be devoted to the work of building storage
reservoirs irrigating canals, bitches. ETC. The
governor thinks this the best plan for reclaiming
our so called arid lands and holds this work could
be better prosecuted under state control than
| under congressional direction.
Probably no report from the territories
| will possess more interest to the masses
of the population of the country at large
as also to the capitalist and scrutinizing
observer Of the mighty trend of civiliZa'
ton toward the setting sun, than Mon
tana. Her colossal strides and marvel
GUS development of resources hidden ant
unthought of have challenged the admi
ration and almost staggered the credulit,
of the continent.
