The interest in the Boulder mining
camp is increasing all the time, there
being hardly day but what from one
to five or six outfits are seen on the road
headed for that coming camp.
A party consisting of Mrs. E. Adam,
Miss Nile, Otto Meardian, James Med
Icy, j. c. Harrington and A. Tomlingson,
all from near Melville, spent Wednesday
here while on their way to the National
Park.
Mrs. Fred Osborn of Livingston spent
Tuesday and Wednesday here visiting
her sister, Mrs. A. G. Yule. Mrs. Osborn
was accompanied on her return home
by Miss Emma Yule, who goes to Liv-
ingston for short visit.
Having purchased the lease now held
by w. r. Bramble, A. G. Yule will this
morning assume charge of the Big Tim
Der hotel. Mr.. Yule made hosts OF
friends while running this house some
wears ago and will undoubtedly conduct

The Royal Baking Powder Condemned In
the New York Legislature.
New York Press.

Last Monday Mr.. Kelly introduced
the following bill in the assembly. A
careful reading of it will show that it is
a very important one:
AN ACT to prevent the use of poison
Gus and injurious ingredients in baking
powders.
WHEREAS, Baking Powders manufac-
tured in this state known as the
"ROYAL" alum and other Baking Pow
ders are advertised for sale as abso-
lutely pure; and

Lawrence Confesses.

Ex-Asslstant Cashier Charles Law
renee OF the Keystone bank of Philadel-
phla, now serving seven years. term for
completely In wrecking the bank, has
written a statement of the methods
used to deceive ex Bank Examiner Drew.
lhe letter, which bears the date of Aug
ust . and is addressed to Col. William
+. Drew, is in the form of confession.
Lawrence says that in the first place
every means possible was used to swell
the assets and diminish the. liabilities of
the bank. This was dono by no regular
method, but by plans suggested by op-
portunity. The individual ledgers we're
altered at least twice a year, about the
time Drew was expected. Sometimes
whole pages were distracted, false bal
ances made by altering pencil figures,
large balances decreased and over bal
ances wiped out; false credits posted to
overdrawn accounts. SO that the exami-

ledger more minutely; sometimes false
checks were posted to an account hav-
ing large balance, so as to reduce the
liabilities. This was done to the extent
of about S5O0,00O. Moneys owed the
cash drawer were replaced, sometimes
by means of due bill taken from the
back of the due bill book, sometimes by
means of a certificate of deposit or the
president obtaining loan. Bills dis
counted were swelled by the introduc-
ton Of fictitious notes. These were in
tended both to swell the assets and take
the place of other bills discounted, which
it was thought best not to let the exam
ner see, lest it excite his suspicion.
Lawrence, after giving the above and
expressing his inability to go into detail,
the above being but mere outline of
the methods, states that his share in the
deception was not done with a petty de-
sire to deceive Drew, but to carry out
the instructions OF his superior officers.

Another Railroad for Montana.

A special to the Independent from
Chicago says: Within two years Helena
will have new railway connection with
the east. The management of the
Burlington has decided to push the con-
struction OF that road westward, and to
reach for share of the traffic now con-
trolled by the Northern Pacific, Union
Pacific and Great Northern. The west
ern terminus of the Burlington is now
at Merino, Wyoming, just west of Black
Hills, and in the region of a great coal
field, the product of which, it is claimed,
can be transformed into an excellent
article of coke. The smelters of Omaha,
Denver, Pueblo, Argentine, Leadville,
and Deadwood have been mainly fed
upon Connellsville or Glenwood Springs
coke, but the product of the Pennsylvania
furnaces will now, Burlington people
are confident, be superseded by coke
from Wyoming. This coke will also,
when the projected line shall have been
completed, be laid down at the smeltere
in Helena, Butte, and probably Ana
conda. This will furnish the new road
with traffic westward, while the product
of the smelters and the ranges of Mon
tana are expected to issue profitable
carrying trade eastward. Following the
general course Of the old military roads
from Deadwood northward, and passing
through the valley of the Yellowstone.
the road will branch somewhere near
Gallatin, one line reaching to Helena
and the other to Butte. The Burlington,
it is claimed, will thus have line from
Helena to Chicago that is 200 miles
shorter than any Of the existing railways,
and thus be in position to dictate to
competing lines in the matter Of rates.
This plan of the Burlington is a viola
ton of the traffic arrangement that has
long been in existence between the 20"
and the transcontinental lines. The
have been foreseen, and
there will be no protest from the Union
and Northern Pacific and Great North
ern companies, as they will invade the
territory hitherto conceded to the Bur
lington. The latter road is calculating
upon the advantages it will have in the
possession of the Cambria coke furnace
Of Wyoming, as we'll as upon the traffic
to be obtained from the smelters and
mines of Montana. However, there will
be a decided disturbance when the
traffic association meets in this city a
month hence.

OF an insult alleged to have been offered
by Sheets to Moran's wife last evening.
Sheets is charged with having followed
Mrs. Moran to her home and then in

nelghbor's house and informed her hus-
band upon his arrival home. Mr.. Mo
ran determined to have satisfaction. and
all today waited for an opportunity to
resent Sheets conduct. His chance
came this evening as Sheets was leaving
the Industrial office to go to supper. Mr..
Moran is faro dealer at Casey's saloon
on First avenue south. He is a quiet.
gentlemanly man and bears an excellent
reputation in this city. Mrs. Moran is
lady of irreproachable character, and
the sentiment of the community upholds
her husband in chastising Sheets.

Daring Train Robbery

Telegraphic dispatches from Samuel,
Texas, a small station on the Southern
Pacific, located in thinly settled sec
ton, few miles from Del Rio, gives a
thrilling account of a daring train rob-
berry committed by six masked men at
that place shortly after midnight Tues
day night. Dynamite and Winchesters
we're used as a means of intimidating
the express messenger and gaining en-
trance to the car. All money and val
uables in the safe in the express car was
secured by the robbers as we'll as several
sacks of mail and registered packages.
The amount of money obtained cannot
be learned, but it will doubtless reach
into the tens Of thousands. The train
was just pulling out from the station
when six masked men, who had selected
their positions, simultaneously mounted
the engine, mail and express car. Over
forty shots were fired, literally perforat-
ing the baggage and express car, with
out injury to any one, when a dynamite
cartridge was exploded against small
window in the express car. The effect
Of this was to tear the window out and
otherwise damage the car. The express
messenger was stunned, but he recover
ed in few moments only to be over
powered by the robbers and made to
give up the safe key. The train was de-
layed several hours. The robbers took
their time in doing the, Job, with the ut
most coolness and exhibited great nerve.
