Back From Montana

Mr.. and Mrs. g. X. Larrabee, who
left here on the 3lst of October for Mon
tana, returned yesterday morning.
The most of the time of their absence
was passed visiting the family of their
brother, 5. f.. Larrabie, in Deer Lodge,
and on Mr.. Larrabee's Brook-Noo ook
horse ranch about l30 miles from Deer
Lodge, between Dillon and Virginia
City. This is one of the most extensive
horse-raising institutions of its class in
the West, devoted to raising animals of
the finer breeds. Mr.. Larrabee states
that the fight for the location of the
capital in Montana was the absorbing
issue in the recent election i'm that
state, and resulted in a draw between
Helena and Anaconda. Marcus DAILY,
he states, is reported to have spent
$500, 900 for Anaconda and sent fam
beau club all over the state i'm his pri-
vate car TO inflame the enthusiasm of
voters in behalf Of bis town. On their
return they spent three or four days in
Portland

Harrison, aged 81, was hanged here
this afternoon for the murder of his
sweetheart, Hattie Adams, daughter
of a well-to-do farmer, last April. The
execution was in field two miles from
the Jail. Ten thousand peoDle wit

because she repelled his advances. He
took dose of laudanum with suicidal
intent and then went to the girls home
and killed her with a revolver. The
drug failed to kill him. Shortly before
the hanging he made a statement that
he had no recollection of the murder
and supposed he did it while under the
influence Of the morphine.

A Harbor Master Needed

The experience Of Capt. Edgett, of
the ship Highlander, illustrates the
need Of a harbor master on Bellingham
bay. When he came here he made in
quiries where he could discharge his
ballast. Nobody could tell him where
he could go or where he could find out
about it. Monday afternoon he com
menced throwing out ballast at point
about half a mile out from the bunk
ers. Yesterday the city attorney, act
ing upon the instruction of the council,
sent out Constable Broyles to ascertain
the depth Of the water where the bal
last was being discharged. They found
il to be about seven fathoms at high
tide. The state law provides that bal
last shall not be discharged i'm less than
twenty fathoms Of water, and fixes the
maximum penalty OF IA violation Of this
law at $1,000. 4 warrant was issued
for the arrest of Capt. Edgett, but
there is no disposition on the part Of
the city authorities TO prosecute him.
The ballast Is sand and would not
make a difference of an inch in the
bottom, but the practice, If followed up
by large number Of vessels, would
undoubtedly ruin our harbor in time.
Water front owners should build cribs
where ballast could be dropped and
utilized as filling. We are all anxious
TO see Bellingham bay become a great
shipping port, but cannot expect TO see
it such If ship masters are put TO the
annoyance that Capt. Edgett has
been i'm this case. Every days delay
TO vessel represents a cash loss and IL
costs money to move them about after
they have been anchored.

First of March

First OF March
BY reason of an error on the part of
Judge w. Lair Hill, in codifying a Sec

until their successors are elected and
qualified; and their term Of Office shall
begin the first Monday i'm January next
following the day Of election, and con-
tinue two years, or until their successors
are duly elected and qualified.
Section of an act approved February
4, 1856, reads: That all district, county
and precinct officers elected by the peOple
at the general election In the year 1854,
and now holding office by virtue Of law
hereunder, shall hold their Offices until
the first Monday in March, 1887, and
until their successors are elected and
qualified.
Section 2 of the same act: That all
district, county and precinct officers here
after 10 be elected in this territory in pur-
suance OF law, shall hold their Offices for

FORMAL OPENING.
ST. JAMES GERMAN LUTHERAN CHURCH TO BE
REDEDICATED ON SUNDAY.
Two Of the Services TO be in German and the Other
in English--E1callsnt Music to Be Rendered
by the Choir--0thsr Incidents.

The work that has been going on for
many months in the remodelling OF st.
James German Lutheran Church has
been of an elaborate nature. But the
labors have now reached a eliminating
point, and the Church, which Is now
one of the handsomest in the Ohio
Valley, will be formerly re-dedicated on
next Sunday morning with appropriate
exexercises.
There are fewer prettier church edl-
fees anywhere, and the newly remod-
elled structure is decided ornament TO
the city. The striking stone front,
with its marked symmetry, and uniform
ity Of designs, make an imposing ap-
pearance. Not only has the exterior
been remodelled, but the interior as
well, and the main auditorium is GER
tainly a work of art, the effect OF the
frescoing, woodwork and other changes
being particularly pleasing.
The services on the occasion OF the
re-dedication on Sunday morning Will
commence at 10 o'clock. The congre-
CATION will be assembled in the base
ment of the church, where they have
been worshipping nearly year pending
the changes to the main part OF the
church, and after brief service all
will march to the front door, where the
key will be handed over to the pastor,
Rev. A. w. Werder, who will open the
church, and the congregation will then
assemble in the church proper, when
the dedicatory services will begin. The
sermon in the morning will be delivered
by Rev. Heer, of Baltimore, and will be
in German, as will also the discourse to
be delivered st half-past two in the
afternoon. The afternoon sermon
will be preached by Rev. Zeil, of Steu-
benville. All the services will be con-
Quoted in German with the exception OF
the evening discourse, which will be in
English, and will be delivered by Rev.
Oglesby, of the South Side, Pittsburg.
All English speaking citizens are
cordially invited. The pastor, Rev.
Mr.. Werder, will have entire charge OF
the different services during the day.
There will be special music rendered
by choir OF twenty trained voices al
all the services, and will be quite a
notable feature OF the programme. The
exercises on the whole will form a
memorable occasion.

ADJUSTMENTS.
A M1LLIoN-po11AR rAeEANr.

For the first time in many years the
public will be treated to an absolutely
new free street circus and spectacular
procession. With the usual disregard
OF expense and with the energy that has
characterized every effort of Barnum
and Bailey, they have designed an en-
tirely new street parade for the pleasure
OF the people, and when it is stated that
it is freely offered upon the same gen
erous scale as the performances within
the tents, one can easily imagine its
magnificent splendors. All the princi-
pal events in American history are illus
trated by living figures on costly char
lots, and Arabian Nights stories, nursery
rhymes, children's fables and child
hoods dreams are likewise beautifully
pictured by living tableaux. The cir
Gus will be here on the 10th.

supper that was most inviting and

culinary field, and memories Of other
relisha BILE repasts had the effect OF
completely filing the vestry on Chap
line street last night with eager partici'
pants.
Everything that was choice and
dainty, and which goes to round out a
complete supper was served, the service
being admirable, and in view of some
Of the fascinating mattresses, at times
rather captivating. A goody sum was
realized.
At noon to-day another bountiful
lunch will be served to the business
men. 1t will be served between the
hours Of 12 and p. m.
