plains of Being "Rolled."

From the after dark occurrences in Hell
ena for the past few days it would seem
that the recent Jail delivery at Spokane had
turned loose a horde of thieves on this To-
cality. When DR.. w. NJ. Billiard left his
office on Main street, near Grand. shortly
after 10 O'Clock on Thursday night, hi had
everything securely locked. The doctor
only arrived in Helena about a week ago
and many of the things in his office had
not yet been unpacked from the boxes On
arriving at the Office yesterday morning,
the door was found looked as
usual. But on entering the i room
DR.. Billiard saw at once that someone had
been there during his absence. The blinds,
which had been left up the night before,
small chest had been forced open. but the
surgical instruments had not been dis
turbed. The door leading to the back room
was open, though it had been closed when
the doctor left the night before. In the
back room the work OF the intruder was
filed with saws, files and other instruments
for working metal, besides odds and ends
of other things, had been unpacked by the
thieves. Drills, saws files and other highly
tempered tools were missing to the amount
of nearly $50, besides a suit Of un-
QerWear. Lie SuERlCdA 1uSU1uLuoAUo were
not taken away, though they had been
overhauled. 1t is thought that the thieves
knew that such instruments would be hard
to dispose of, and took the others in prefer
ence. What saws they did take we're
of the kind that would go through.an iron
bar in short order. There were also some
fine watch spring saws that would be handy
for a man in cutting his way out of jail.
Entrance to the rooms was doubtless ef-
fecteu by running a wire through the news
paper slot in the door and catching n
drawing back the knob of the spring look.
r. F. Brien is locked up at police head
quarters ON the charge of breaking into a
store on South Main street and stealing a
lot of chickens. There was another
man with Brian in the job. The chickens
were all dressed and ready for sale. With
a bag full of the chickens the men started
in the direction of the Northern Pacific
depot. Near there they ran across Police
man Flynn, who arrested the man with the
bag. The other ran and though the police
man emptied all the chambers of his re-
volver at the fugitive, it failed to call a halt
and the man escaped. Brian was held for
burglary. W.
Another case of bold burglary occurred at
Michael Mulkern's house on Howie street
Yesterday, this one III broad daylight.
While Mrs. Mulkern was up stairs attend
ing to some household duties some one
entered the lower floor and helped himself
to a lot of small articles, mostly food.
Policeman Flynn found William O'Brien
in the nelghborhood of the Northern Pa
cific depot last night with five shirts tied
up in a bundle. Their damp condition led
to the conclusion that the shirts had not
been long off the clothes line.

IN CHSTIE ::
The Great Carbonate Camp Of Montana.

Opportunities are now offered for unsur-
passed investments in real estate. 1t is univers-
ally acknowledged as possessing the brightest
future of any new town in Montana. Its ore
deposits rival in quality and quantity those that
were first discovered in LeadvHle.
Like in that great mining city of Colorado,
there will be fortunes rapidly made in dealing in
Castle town property; like in Leadville IN Its
early days, lots can now be purchased in this
coming mining metropolis at first cost, which is
a nominal figure. The opportunity for obtain
ing rapid and large returns on the money invest
ed in Castle real estate will be equal to those
made in Leadville and Butte in their palmy days.

The Legal Tender mine has $50 tons of
ore on the dump and a twenty-foot vein of
high grade carbonates at the 15O-foot level
The official report of the Boston and
this mpan was 1875. 600 pounds of cop
per, against 2, 175.0O0 pounds for January,
2,15O,00 pounds for December and 2,150.0O 0
pounds for November.
Development on the Florence mine in
Meagher county, is progressing steadily.
The shaft at last accounts was down twenty
feet, and though below the Level of Belt
creek, there was no water of consequence
and the work was progressing rapidly and
economically.
On the Yellowstone mine at Castle there
are two shifts working on the a0-foot level.
where a solid streak of ore ten feet thick
has been cut and followed forty feet with
the end not reached. On the 30O-foot level
three shifts are working with good results
in showing up fine ore bodies.

Orc From the Hen Kimher.

A car Of ore was received in Helena from
the Ben Kimber mine, near Placer, Thurs
day. The owners arc much pleased with
the result. A good force Of men lie EN-
ployed on the property under the superin-
tendence Of Chas. Glass, and it is expected
that hereafter regular shipments of ore
will be made. The tunnel on the property
is now in 400 feet and there is also a shaft
down ffty-six feet, all in ore. The ore
nets $4S to the ton. This enterprise is
purely a Helena one, amongthe owners be-
ing L. II. Crutcher and c.. kleinschmidt,
Jr.. Under the direction of Mr.. Glass the
n expect the best results from the
mine.

Hon. j. M. Clements will deliver an ad-
dress on shorthand reporting before the
Helena Stenographers' association this
evening at eight o'clock at the rooms of
the Helena Business college in the Gold
block. Mr.. Clements was for twelve years,
from 1872 to 1884, actively engaged in court
reporting, and was the first official court
reporter in Montana. He drafted the bill
introduced into the territorial legislature
in 1877 providing for the appointment of
court stenographers at a salary of So per

and was the first stenographer appointed
under that law. AS the veteran shorthand
reporter of Montana Mr.. Clements address

stenographers and their friends are cor
daily invited to be present.

MIR. NIannheim's Statement.

l.. Mannheim, who was assaulted by D.
F. Douglas as the result of a controversy
that arose at the Sixth ward republican
primary last Saturday, says that an injus-
tice has been done him in the published
accounts of the case. He says that Douglas
struck HIM without warning, and that the
remarks he made about Douglas to the
effect that the latter was not a taxpayer and
had been twice arrested for false pretenses
were true. Mr.. Mannheim is a property
owner in the ward and naturally resented
the attempt to deprive him of his vote.
