that Miss Nettie Boyd the lady who has
gained SO much notability in connection with
the divorce proceedings Of Williams VS. Will

Office of Bangs & Clarke solicitors for the

quite yfvacious and more than ordinarily
progressing in appearance, in fact, quite
pretty. She is decided blonde of about
thirty summers, medium in height, rather
round favored and with natural ease and
grace that denote social advantages of high

Mr.. Clarke.
Miss Boyd talked to the reporter quite a

Returned From Alaska,

Messrs. !. c. Swindler and J, F, French ar
rived in the city this morning over the Elk
hom from Alaska, where they have been since
'S7. Mr. Swindler is one of the pioneers Of
the Black Hills, having come here with the
first. In "a he went to Idaho and after pros
pecting in that country for three years decid-
ed to try his fortune in Alaska.
In an interview with an Independent re-
porter Mr.. Swindler said he had spent the
past FIVE years prospecting and placer mining
In Alaska, during which time he travelled
over great part Of that vast territory, going
some miles into the Arctic circle. He states
that there. is. as yet but little prospecting
being done for other than placer work, which
is carried on quite extensively along the
Upper Yukon river during the months Of
June, July and August. A greater part of
the work is done with the rocker it being
difficult in most cases to build fumes on ac-
count of scarcity Of timber in that part of the
country. The pay dirt will pan out on an
average from $6 to SO per day for each man.
The regular amount of wages paid to miners
during the short summer season is ss per day,
so that it Gusts about as much tc get the gold
as ii is worth, Most of the gold is very
coarse, ounce nuggets being quite common,
One nugget was found in Franklin gulch on
the Upon Yukon worth $as6.
Mr. Swindler spent the winters at Juneau,
q place about one hundred and fifty miles
north Of Sitka. He does not consider the
wintsrs very severe, and says the summers
are as pleasant as in this country. The cli-
mate for some reason or other did not seem to
agree with his health, SO having mining inter
ests in the Black Hills, he decided to return
and permanently reside here. Independent.

RECENT Investigations OF the wheat
ring in Minnesota have disclosed a state
the moyement favoring government con-
troll or ownership Of railroads. 1t turr S
out that a ring composed OF the eleva-
tor and mill men has BEEN debating the
price OF wheat for number OF years
and that in the purchase OF this staple
product they would brook no COMPETE
ton. While it is to be regretted that
prices have been kept SO low, farmers
have no one to blame except themselves
for allowing monopolists to fix the price
of all their products.

SENATOR KYLE.

Senate bill 1907 includes the issue OF
bonds to the amount OF S4,O0O,OOO by
the government said bonds to be re-
deemable after thirty and payable at
fifty years and to be used for the laying
out and improving OF the streets OF the
city OF Washington. The following ex-
tract Of Senator Is yle'sspeech on the bill
was clipped from the Star. Senator
Kyle, OF South Dakota, said: Now,
in the District Of Columbia believe the
scheme is this: Real estate spcculators
have interests lying outside the city OF
Washington. Here are corporations
who own large tracts OF land just adj
Joining the city. These tracts would be
materially advanced in value by thecon-
struction OF highways as proposed in
the bill now before us. Mr.. President,
the plan is that the United States shall
aid in constructing these highways by
issuing bonds and throwing them upon
the market. object to this because ]
belleye it is a bad financial policy. Out
inthe west we are told that our farmers
have adopted a bad financial. policy
. They are living beyond themselves.
They are buying more lands than they
really need to-buy. We were told only a
few days ago by the distinguished sena-
tor from Vermont (NIr. Morrlll) that the
cause OF cur farm mortgages in the west
is that we have been borrowing money
upon our farms for. the purpose OF ad-
ding other quarter sections, and that
machinery was being bought perhaps be-
lore ~ were able to pay for it. Such a
policy was thought unseasoned. Now, /
believe what is economy for the farmer,
what is economy for the municipality, is
economy for the government. ] believe
that it is bad financial policy for us to
issue bonds for the purpose OF extending
or improving the streets in the District
OF Columbia. VIII have staring us in the
face at the present time an empty treas
ury. ii we have not the money in the
treasury OF the United States to improve
these streets, and if they need to be I'M
proved, then by all means let us wait
until the money IS on hand and we can
pay for it like men and not saddle bonds
upon us and upon our Children

The case OF Davis VS. Keliher and Hart
that has been occupying the time OF the
court for the past two days has created
great interest in the community. 1t
-seetns briefly briefly stated, that Mr.. Davis
attem pied to sell to keliher and Hart
six steers but that he failed to round
up more than five which were duly de-
l1v, red and paid for. Later Mr.. Davis
discovers what he claimed to be-, and
several reliable witnesses corroborate
his testimony, the steer which he had
failed to find at the time OF the transfer,
running on the range with Keliher and
Hart's brand on. Mr.. Davis was SO
sure OF the identity OF the steer that he
took possession OF the animal and sold
it to Schleuning & Young. Messers Kel-
iher and Hart, on the other hand, were
so sure that this was one OF the iden-
teal steers sold and delivered to them
that they brought suit against
Schleuning and Young before Justice
Lake. Later the stock asso
citation took the matter up and obtained
indictments against the gentlemen. The
great amount OF cattle rustling that has
been done in the country coupled with
The wide acquaintance OF the parties in
terested in this case, has attracted the
attention Of the whole Hills. In the
trial just closed two witnesses for the
state we're positive that the brand on
the steer in dispute was OF more recent
date than those placed on steers at time
OF sale, while the defendants witnesses
swore there was no difference in brands
and one witness testified to seeing the
missing steer on the Limestone range.
Judge Fuller's rulings have been critic
cised by many as preiudicial to the state,
j but tiall disinterested witnesses agree that
the state made a very slim case, and
the high state OF the public pulse on
n this question makes many unjustcritics.
While on this question we wish to criti-
else, not Judge Fuller. for we have no
reason to doubt his wisdom and must
believe that he acted conscientiously in
the matter, but We would crlticise a
system which allows one man, however
well versed in law, to take the place OF
twelve. ave refer to the power OF the
court to advise a jury as to their duty

Wagon Load OF Insanity Brought
In Yesterday.
Peter Kelley was brought to the city
early yesterday morning from ella
Bend, tied down in wagon after the
manner OF a refractory calf destined for
a rising market. Peter Kelley was
crazy. He had been at work in camp
along the Wolfiey canal and last Sun
day became 30 violent that it was
feared he would reduce the working
force on the canal if he didn't first de-
stroy himself.
Word was sent to Officer U. G. Nc
Williams, who took charge of him.
His condition was so aggravated that it
was determined to bring him across the
country, rather than by rail-
In the course of his journey he had
managed to denude himself so that
when the wagon was driven up to the
Jail door it con tanned curious looking
load.
He was taken before Judge Baxter,
who committed him to the asvlum.
Kelley is about As years old aud un-
married. Tie is well known among the
old timers as hard drinker and his
bibulous habits have brought about q
perpetual and apparently incursble at
tack of delirium tremens. lie has two
Authorizations, one of which is that he
