A ScoundrelIy Deed.

PITTsBURG, Pa, June 2.-Pretty Mollie
Hanlon attended Decoration day picnic
yesterday at McKee's Rocks and missed the
10 o'clock train for Pittsburg. Two men
volunteered to row her across the Ohio to
enable her to catch Fort Wayne train. In
the middle OF the river they decided to
take the girl to Brunot's island instead-a
lonely, isolated place. Molle wept and
pleaded and offered all her money and val
uables to the ferrymen. They refused to
land her and the frightened girl leaped into
the river. The ruttians dragged her back
but she again threw herself into the water
and made q desperate attempt to drown
herself. Again they dragged her into the
boat and were proceeding to the island
when intercepted by the Jerry woman who
heard Mollies screams and took the uncon-
scious girl from the men, who were later
arrested and are now in Jail.

Moscow, .special.-The car and czarina
and the Grand Duchess XeRia arrived here
to-day. They drove to the Kremlin
through streets beautifully decorated
with bunting, receiving enthusi-
astic greetings from dense crowds
that tied the route. The discovery of four
large boxes of dynamite in the customs de-
partment of the French exhibition last Sun
day was In part the reason tor the delay of
the royal visit to Moscow. The boxes
would have been seized on the
frontier but for the concession made by the
customs department which allowed ex-
hibits to pass unopened. The whole ground
under the dais erected for the car was
then excayated owing to fears that it had
been undermined, but nothing was found.

Every day there comes into Helena from
the east and west over the Northern Pacific
from fifteen 10 thirty freight cara loaded
with goods for the homo dealers Helena
merchants send to Marysvile every daya
car Of goods; they send two every day to
Boulder and Wickes, and eyerv other day
one to Rimini. In addition they send out
every day y train of what Ia known "a ped
dlers," made up of nine or twelve cars.
These 60 to every station on the west to the
state border.
The amount Of goods received by Helena
merchants is surprisingly large, compared
10 the population, and proves conciusively
that this is the great Wholesale mart of Mon
tana. There is one grocery firm which av-
erages four cars Of goods daily, and still
it's warehouse is never overstocked. From
January to date Helena merchants have re-
ceived forty cars of oranges. costing $4,000,
on which the freight was $4,000. During
the same time they nave shipped in twenty
cars of lemons, valued at $4,000. From
July / to Dec. 81, they will receive forty cars
of small fruits of various kinds. from out
side the state, and about three cars raised
on Montana soil. From this city these or
anges. lemons and fruits go to every town
and mining camp in the state. For its size,
Helena has the reputation among growers

city in the United States.
There has been q big increase in the value
of realty in the Sixth since the ward was
established. When the Northern Pacific
first came into Helena the best warehouse
property could be bought for $40 a foot.
Now it is worth from 500 to $50 a foot.
North of the depot residence lots were
worth $3.50 a foot. Now they bring $25.
South of the depot and along Helena ave-
nue. the rise has been as marked.
In addition to the warehouses Of the mer-
chants the big planning establishments are
located in this district. These comprise
the Helena Lumber company, Gilchrist
Brothers d Edgar, the Montana Lumber
and Manufacturing company, Wallace d
Observation-Disclosures company. and Ketchum,
De Noille & Co. All of these establish
ments have large lumber yards in
ton, and give employment to a great num-
Der of men,
Down in the Sixth also is the Perry soap
factory, Sanford & Evans -four mill, the
sewer pipe works and the gas plant. AS
other manufactures are started, they will
naturally, in a large majority of cases, go
down that way, due to the convenient rail
way facilities both Of the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern. On a bright day a
stroll through the Sixth is worth the
trouble. and it will give the visitor a better
idea of the business transacted by the
people OF Helena with outside camps, than
can be obtained in any other way.

Though territoriallv, perhaps, the largest
ward in the city, but Il slight proportion of
the population OF Helena have an idea of the
wealth of that section of the city and the
important part it bears in the towns
growth. Eight or ten years ago there were
a few fair residences in the Sixth, but
where the big business is now done, ranch
ers raised hay and other produce. With
the coming Of the Northern Pacific rail
road and the establishment of depots, GEN.
eral offices, round-houses, repair shops. and
store houses Of various kinds, q great change
has come. In that vicinity all the large
mercantile houses in Helena have their
warehouses, the coal, wood and lumber bus
ness finds there its headquarters, and miles
of side tracks reduce largely the expense
of receiving and shipping goods.
In this ward also is the lum-
Der and planning mill district and the
largest manufactures in Helena. In nd-
dition to being the Wholesale and manu-
featuring ward, it has also grown rapidly in
the matter of residences aud retail stores.
