They Visit the Silver City and Pay
Homage to Her Future
Greatness,

sisting of W. F. Merrill, general man

Chicago capitalist; N. b. Huxley,
auditor of the Chicago & Iowa railway
II. 7. KEENAN,, stock agent of the Chicago,
Burlington 4 Quincy road and some
private friends arrived at Neihart last
Friday in their special car attached to
the private car of F. 1. Whitney. The
company had been attending the stock
convention at Miles City and were on
their way back east. They remained in
Great Falls a few hours before coming
to Neihart. f. G. Maclay and Paul A,
Fusz of The Diamond r. mining COM
pany were in their company to Neihart,
also general superintendent Case, of the
G. N. Ry. Their visit was simply one
of pleasure and prospect, but the COM
pany's pleasure was probably coupled
with remote idea of building into Mel
hart if the appearance of business would
warrant it. Also it is known that the
80" line and the G. N. have been max
ing love for some time and that their
subsequent marriage will he a matter of
no great surprise.
1t is learned with pretty good assur-
ance from reliable sources that the
Burlington road will soon commence
construction work from the Great Falls
end of the line, working toward Wyom-
ing owe the route already surveyed
through the Judith gap.

Picture feames made to order at
calkin's bookstore, Great Falls. Is II
Sheds His Skin.

Col. W. T. Hart spoke often to his
friends here of a most singular physiol-
ogical phenomenon in the case of John
II. Price employed as miner at the BIZ
Metallic, at Philipsburg. For several
successive years this gentleman on every
gath day of July, between the hours of
3 and 8 T. NJ. sheds his skin much the
same as reptiles in spring. Last week
the Colonel sent to DR.. b. F. Sandow of
this place, a picture of the man, taken
under the supervision Of DR.. Sly, during
the process of melting. The change
causes no sickness in any way and simp-
ly results in giving off the old skin,
revealing the new. Mr.. Price is 30
years old and a perfect physical type Of
IL man. This picture illustrates one of
the strangest freaks of nature on record
and though many are 10th to believe the
report, once seeing the picture will salts
fy the most dubious mind.

Couldn't Challenge Votes.

About 8 o'clock Monday morning
Chas. Wooster, who was taking an
active part in he election began chal-
longing votes at the polls of Second
ward. Certain parties took exception
to his method and though the Judges of
the election declared him in order,
Marshal O'Brien tried to arrest him on
the charge of Il misdcmeaner. He was
a bad man to handle and resisted the Of
ficer. A scrap ensued in which each, in
turn, knocked the other down. The
Marshal procured help and took Mr..
Wooster from the room. He was placed
under bonds for appearance next morn
ing at court, AL. Pierse going on his
bond, after which he was set up to all
the liberties of a full ticdged American
on election day. At the hour appointed
next day no one appeared against him.
Many centurc the City Marshal and feel
that he transgressed his bounds.

In conversation with deputy assessor
J. J. Henncssy this week regarding his
department of work in this part Of the
county, he said that he had completed
the assessment of Barker, Monarch,
Ncihart and the surrounding region. 1t
has been somewhat tedious to complete
the list owing to the isolated residence
many of the tax payers and the variable
weather furnished by the clerks of the
meteorological department, but that he
had found the property valuation all
along the line higher than last year and
that the tax list for Neihart and Barker
especially the former, when summed up
will probably double in amount that of
year ago.

The Moulton.

The Moulton mine was visited this
week by a representative of the HERALD
and through the courtesy of those in
charge he was shown through this rich
property. After stepping aboard the
cage, it was dropped to the bottom of
the shaft which is 800 feet deep. Upon
leaving the cage a distance of 14O feet
was traverscd in the crosscut before ar
irving Il: where they were drifting on
the vein. The company have driftcd a
distance of $50 on either side of the
crosscut, making the entire distance
driftcd 500 feet. Throughout it's entire
length Il large body of high grade ore is
exposed ranging between five and six
feet wide. The air becoming bad the
company have at the point where the
crosscut enters the vein started an up
raise so as to got better ventilation,
Rapid progress has been made as the
formation is very soft. The Moulton
now employees about 80 men and it will
not be long before many more will be
employed. The amount of ore now
in sight and the depth that is now at.
tanned makes it Il sure fact of this pro.
perry being a dividend paying mine il
the near future.

HORSE WHIPPED.
4 SENSATIONAL EPISODE OVER AT BRIDGE
PORT.
An Angry Wife Makes It Hot for Another Woma,
for Leading Her Hubby
As.ray.

Quite a sensation occurred at Bridge
port Tuesday evening, which resulted
in Mrs. Frank Mcdonald giving Mrs.
Alfred Bayles a regular, old-time horse
whipping.
Early in the fall Frank Mcdonald
married young lady from Point Pleas
ant, and brought her to Bridgeport to
live. For a while everything passed
along very smoothly; Mrs. Mcdonald be-
ing a distant relative of Mrs. Bayles,
they often called and spent the evening
with each other. Finally Mcdonald
commenced calling on Mrs. Baylss, I'M
til Mrs. Mcdonald got onto the racket
aud decided to leave her husband. Mr..
Bayles, who is glassworker al
Findlay, was also informed OF the mis-
conduct OF his wife, and took the mat
ter very hard. Meanwhile Mcdonald
and wife separated, Mcdonald taking
up his lodging at the house of Mrs.
Bayles. When she learned of this,
Mrs. Mcdonald became incensed, and
Tuesday night the "climax-reached"
act was sprung upon the two lovers
when Mrs. Mcdonald entered the Col
ored Baptist Church in Kirkwood and
took seat behind Mcdonald and Mrs.
Boyles.
Mcdonald at once took in the situa-
ton and left the church. Shortly be-
fore the services were over Mrs. Bayles
took her departure from the church.
She was closely followed by Mrs. Nc
Donald, who was very wrathy. Scarcely
had they met, about block from the
church, when Mrs. Mcdonald caught
her enemy and commenced her work by
giving he what is described as a dread
full thrashing, with a cowhide, after
which both returned to their respective
homes.
The affair naturally created quite
commotion about Bridgeport, and was
the universal topic of talk there yester-
day.
