LUCKY POLICE CAPTURES.

Three Had Men Landed in Jail by Helsna
Officers.
During the preceding forty-siRht hours
the Helena police have made three
lucky captures Of criminals. While chance
had good deal to do with il, had not tho
officers been viRilant the arrests would not
have been made. When tho races began
Marshal Calvin gave orders that all sus-
picious characters were to be run in. II
was in following out these instructions that
the oficers did better work than they knew.
Among the first arrests were those of II. A.
Irvine and James Brown. by Officers Bar.
rett and Tracy, Monday. on the charge of
being vaRrants. Searched by the police.
several articles Of jewelry were found upon
them, but there was no clue to the owners.
by Judge Gage. Tuesday Marshal Calvin
met q lady from Anaconda At the fair
grounds, who told him q relative of hers
living in that city. had been robbed Of Ger
tain articles. They were the same found
on Irvine and Blown. and the marshal im-
tiers to hold them. Five minutes prs
viously, however, they had been re-
leased on the promise that they would
leave the city Immediately. Ihev were
caught, however, within half an hour, aud
when confronted with the charge ons
Of the men, Irvine, confessed. and told
whore some Of the articles had been pawned.
Yesterday N. J. Foley. from whose house the
ARTICLES had been takcn, came over to
Helena with Constable w. Stebbins. Mr..
Foley identified the articles, and the two
gentlemen, with their two prisoners, left for
Anaconda in the afternoon.
The second case. howsvs-. was more
Important ono than the first. July 6, last
the hsuss ut $50 Rodney was entered and =
lot Of jewelry taken. A man named Chas.
Dickson was suspected but he could not be
found. The officers had description of
him and all kept sharp lookout. tuesday
night about 12 O'Clock Detective Finnegan

and looking into saloon hs saw Dickson
and Immediately arrested him. The sus-
pect had fair-sized aatchel with him. and
said he was going out on ths 2:l5 a. m.
train. He was taken to police headquarters
and put behind the bars. A search of his
valise brought forth big six
legs of pair of drawers were tied together,
and in these were found four chamois sacks

Tennessee Miners Capture the Stock
ads At Oliver Springs. Guards
and Prisoners.
Goal Crsek the Next Place That
Will Be Visited BY the
Miners.
More switchmsn st BsfRAlo Join the
striksrs-Troops Are Guarding AL
Railroad Property There.

NASHVILLE Aug. l7.-About 1,7OO minsrl
attacked the stookads at Oliver Springs,
ovsrpowersd the guards and sent the con
victs to Knoxville, whsnce they Will b
rought 10 this city. Upon the arrival oi
200 convicts at Knoxville this afternoon,
the story Of the surrender OF the stockade
at Oliver Springs was learned. Last night
some ]. 800 minors seized three trains and
with drawn Winohestsrs compelled the
train men TO take them to Oliver Springs.
The warden Of tho stockade at Oliver
Springs heard OF their approach
and whom the minors were al
least a mile away, he assembled the
guards and convicts and marched
to the miners and surrendered. This action
came as great surprise after the defense
made last night The guns Of the militia
men were taken from them and the miners
placed the conviots and guards on the train
and sent shem TO Knoxville. Tho miners
then went 70 Coal Creek, whore men from
tho whole region are conRrspating.
The universal belief ID that Coal Creek
will bs attacked before morning. II ID i'm
possible now to reinforce Capt. Anderson
at Coal Creek. and the whole brunt of the
battle will fall on him and his command Of
$50 mon. They have a commanding, posi-
tion, are heavily armed. and
should give a good account of
themselves. The state 10 thoroughly
aroused, and men Of ali GLASSES are ready to
join the law and order party to aid the
military in restoring quiet. even at the cost
of few lives. The sheriff Of Knox county
called for 500 citizens to go to the relief of
the miners At Coal Crssk.. This was done
under authority of an order from Gov.
Buchanan. Petitions were sent the COVER
nor, asking him to call upon the general
government for aid. Gov. Buchanan also
authorized the sheriff OF Hamilton county
TO raise posse Of 500 men and proceed to
Coal creek.
Various estimates are made as to the
number Of miners involved in the trouble.
The estimates may be greatly exaggerated,
but the lawbfeakers doubtless have a re-
serve force which will number fully 2O,OOO
resolute men. and should they break into
open rebellion and defy the troops il will
prove very difficult duty to handle them,
familiar as they are with all the mountain
retreats and pasass. Conservative people
think they will hesitate 10 oppose the troops.
Their main object seems to be to create
santiment against the convict lease system i.
Friends of the miners say the trouble will
subsiae as soon as the mines are nd of the
oonviots, but most of the citizens fear it
will take the whole power of the state and
possibly tho aid of the nationsl govern.
ment to qusll the disturbance. The full
force of the state militia does not exceed
2,OOO men and they cannot possibly be
brought together inside a week. In the
meantime, If the miners persist, they will
have accomplished their end.

SUMMER NORMAL SCHOOL,
That Now Being Held at Butte is Doin
Good Work,

That Now Being Held at Butte Is Doing
Good Work.
Prof. s. A. Merritt. principal of the
Helena High school, is in Butte in charge
of the Summer Normal school there. Re-
ports in the Butte papers indicate that the
Normal is we'll attended. and is doing good
work. 1t will continue for about two
weeks. Monday evening Prof. Merritt
delivered lecture at the Prssbyteria
church before large and appreoiative
audience. taking for his subject, "Educs.
tion of the Masses." The Butte Miner, in
its report of the lecture says in the first
part of the lecture he tried to show that the
condition Of the lsboring GLASSES was very
much changed from what it was formerly,
because of the increased competition and
increased manufactures. The increased
use of machinery, while it did much of
the work of the common laborer, also in
creased the demand for skilled labor. In
fact, the whole industrial situation de-
mands better education for tho masses in
the direction Of that which is rractical,
especially practical science and art.
He said whilo it wSs not the business Of
the public schools to teach the trades. it is
their duty TO impart instruction in the
principles underlying all trades, and by
combining the work in the public schools to
that which 10 solid and essential there
would be time to impart instruction in the
principles underlying the industries. This
would be greatly to the benefit of the COM.
mon people. whose children would be
longer kept i'll school when they saw there
were being directly aided to solve tho prob
lem Of life as we'll as increase their literary
attRinments.
Mr.. Merritt denounced the cramming
system IN public schools. saying that too
much time was spent on spelling. thousands
OF unnecessary words were studied. only a
Gmall part of which would ever enter into
the working vocabulary OF the pupil.
The speaker also made plea for briefer
text books. Text books not containing less
thorough instruction, but confined to the
essential principles of which they are in
tended TO treat. Such books would compel
teachers to know their subjects and stand
before the pupils and expand and explain
those principles in the manner they would
be moro readily comprehsndsd by their
pupils.

Richmond figures in new war-play,
written by Mr.. Augustus Thomas, the
author OF the wonderfully successful
Alabama" and produced Monday night
at the Columbia Theatre, Boston. Says
the New York Herald:
The scenes are laid in Richmond, on the
eve Of the evacuation of 1t in April, 1865.
George Colgate, in whose parlor the first
three acts are laid is the commander
Of the interior Notifications of the city.
His two daughters and a niece are in love
with Northern soldiers. prisoners-on pa
rOle-in Richmond. The main story OF
the play deals with the Confederate plot
TO release the prisoners from the Federal
prison on Johnson's Island. Lake Erie,
and then form "a Confederate army in
the North.
This plot these prisoner lovers became
apnrised of and they devise means OF
getting word Of the plot TO President Lin
coin. who. as history records defeats the
great conspiracy.
Then follows the fall OF Richmond and
the futile attempts Of some Of the Con-
federacy TO form another line Of battle.
The Generals family fees from the city.
The NOrnhern lovers assist them in their
moving, carry the baggage and work at
the domestic duties Of the place. The
news of Lees surrender brings happy
ending.
Manager Charles Frohman gathered

der" and the production tonight was
