Luck Struck Them.

The natives of the Gilbert group OF
islands have enjoyed veritable wind
fall. A large ship with a full cargo
and nobody on board sailed into their
harbor. The vessel was the British
ship Rock Terrace. and the strange
part about the matter is that the ship
was abandoned by her crew about
twelve months ago, and, Instead OF
foundering soon. she drifted on and
on until she reached the Gilbert
islands She left Philadelphia for
Japan in September, 1887, with a
cargo of oil and phosphates valued at
sl25. 900. When near the Philippine
island the crew abandoned their ves-
sci, landing on an island close by, all
Of them being saved. Nothing further
was heard of her and the underwriters
paid the sum for which she was in
sured. She had but a few inches OF
water In her hold and was in fair con-
dition. She was owned In St John,

HOW THE DAY WILL BE OBSERVED

HOW THE DAY WILL BE OBSERVED
Churcn service In the Morning, overtures
and Music In the Afternoon and Ball at
Night
Although it at one time looked as
though the day destined 10 be so great
q one in the history Of this country
was about to slip by Miles City with
out anyone paying any attention to 1t,
still the rustling qualities Of some Of
our citizens were aroused and move
ment was put on foot to bring about
some formal recognition Of the day.
The result has been that there will be
q gathering Of orators at the court
house, at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon,
who will speak upon the occasion of
the festivities. Through the kindness
of Adjutant Kell and Lieut.. Martin
the Fort Keogh military band will
furnish music and II is expected that
large gathering Of citizens and peo-
pie from the Fort will be present.
Among the speakers will be Judge
Strevell, John Fairfield, Esq., and
Rev. VIM, NJ. Weeks. Geo. r. Mill
burn will act as chairman. 1t is ex-
pected also that someone will read the
Declaration Of Independence, a docu-
ment which, though 1t is q hundred
years In age Is never old, which,
though IL is read every Fourth Of July
at celebrations, we can never hear IL
too often, and could IA individual
know 1t by heart he would carry no
burden. The band will play patriotic
airs suitipg to the occsgion, and the
mention Of Its name assures the public
that the music will be first class.
During the morning at the regular
hour there will be union service at the
church. at which all are iuvit, 10 be
present. The several pres9he.s will
engage in the service.
At nighta bali will be given at the
Rink, which is expected TO be grand
affair. Thus does Miles City celebrate
a day which the whole country halls
with Joy and preparing for the proper
recognition Of which the city Of New
York hes spent millions OF dollars,
where the great men Of this great ma
tion will recount the vicissitudes, the
tolls and triumphs Of the country

A DESPERATE FELLOW,

The Horatio OF the Bridge at Billings when
Told of HIS Discharge, G ommits an As
sault and .Ies the House and Bridge.
A man named Tully has heretofore
been the waichman of the Northern
Pacific railroad bridge over the Yell
lowstone river at Billings. Recently
he has been indulging TOO freely In
booze and the company became aware
OF his conduct and determined to re-
move him. p. G. Whited, q Miles
City man, was given mandate by a
railroad authority here, removing
1ully, and placing Whited in his
stead. Whited went to Billings, and
showing his authority to Tully, told
him that he was removed from the
service Of the company, and relieved
Of his job as bridge tender. This con-
versation, It Is understood, took place
In the watchman's house, near the
track. AS soon as Tully realized the
weight Of Whited's words, he seized a
poker, one end Of which had been
thrust In the fire and was red hot, aud
ran at the bearer of the disagreeable
intelligence, who Immediately beat a
retreat. That night he (Tully)
set fire to the watchman's house,
which was burned to the ground, and
also to the bridge, but the latter fire
was put out with small damage being
done. Tully was promptly arrested
and is now 10 jr'l. Whitei wes in
stalled in the office OF watchman.
