GREAU FALLS, Dec. 26.-Coal is be-
ginning to move from the mines of the
Belt Coke and Coal Company to Ana
conda. Eighteen cars went out over
the Montana Central Wednesday to be
loaded for this destination. The people
of Belt and Arlington are very much
pleased with the prospect that the re.
cent movements for the development of
the Belt coal fields are of substantial
nature, and such that the large deposits
there are to become permanent sup
ply for permanent market.
There have been reports in this city
that several coal deals were under way
other than the one by which James
Shields secured large tract some days
ago. It is said eastern parties are look
ing over the coal ground there. The
Belt coal is going to be mined in large
quantities, which means a new measure
of prosperity for this section.

BARELY ESCAPED LYNcHINc.
Exciting Experience of Two Officials
With a Mob,

FREMONT, Neb., Dec. 25.-W. L. May,
president of the suspended bank at
Nashville, is in the city and related his
experience with the mob ct that place
after the bank had closed. The de-
positors had gathered in store where
May and Cashier Elmer Williams were.
All were armed, angry and determined,
and there was an evident purpose to
make the bank officials trouble. They
were awaiting the arrival of freight
going to Chadron, and when they saw
the growing resentment they quietly
left by the back door and started for
the depot. They were soon missed
and the crowd pursued and overlook
them before they got to the depot,
when burly fellow drew a gun on Mr..
May and told him he guessed he had
better stay, that they proposed to have
a lynching bee in town that night. At
this critical juncture Liveryman Peters
stepped up with counter-irritant in the
shape of bigger gun, and standing
the crowd off he informed them that
he would take the men in charge, which
he did, and procuring a team he drove
them to town in hurry.

SEEMS TO BE A MODERN JEzeBEL
Mrs. Elder, However, Says She Did Not
Shoot Her Husband.

ShOOb her huBDdnus
FAIRFIELD, Iowa, Dec. 24.-If the
stories told of Mrs. Elders treatment
of her husband at Brighton are true,
and there is good evidence that they
are, she is certainly modern Jezebel.
She is now in Jail here, having been ar
rested by Sheriff Crane at her mothers
home in Lockridge, Iowa, on telegraphic
instructions from Brighton. She is
about 25 years old, buxom German
girl of unusually good appearance. She
married Elder in this city about a year
ago and went directly with him to live
near Brighton in the north part of the
county.
Upon being arrested the woman de-
MED all knowledge of the crime and
came to jail under protest. interviewed
at the Jail, she stated that she and her
husband had always gotten along very
well. One quarrel had been Brought
on by her husbands father, Frederick
Elder, who at different times had
threatened to kill her husband. She
said she left her home about 2 o'clock
Friday afternoon to visit her mother
and that her husband rode several miles
with her in the wagon, after which he
babe her good bye. She says that if he
is murdered his father is the murderer.
Her husband, she says, had a great
many enemies in the neighborhood, and
once some one had shot at him through
the window of her house, but did not
hit him.
In order to bring out the facts and Ito
have the case tried here, Squire Stin-
son issued a warrant charging Annie
Elder with murder. Elder is in critical
condition. Over fifty shot were picked
out of his head and shoulders and he is
covered with bruises. 1t is probable
that he will die. There is considerable
excitement at Brighton.

LEADS BOYS TO CRIME.
Sending Them to the Bridewell Has a
DemOralizing Eject.

Sending Them to the Bridewell Has
Demoralizing Effect.
CHICAGO, Dec 25.-Seventy-hve per
cent of the boys who so to the bride
well are "repeaters." This is the state
ment of those who are in charge of the
institution. 1t means, practically, that
when boy is sent to the so-called house
of correction for a misdemeanor he is
started along the road which leads
through theft, robbery, burglary, muir
der and other crimes, and ends at the
solitary cell, the insane asylum or the
gallows. The bridewell is a school of
crime, as its own records show.
The boy who enters it a first time is
only one in four, at the least estimate,
who comes out to lead a life of honesty
and usefulness. The proportion is GER
tainly much less, since many of the
older boys whose first punishable offense
sends them to the bridewell pass at the
next step directly into the state peni-
Tertiary.

Burning of Two Children Drives Mother
to Suicide.
GLASGOW, Ky, Dec. 95.-News received
here from Burkesville says that while a
negro man and his wife were absent
from their home the house caught fire
and two little children, one aged and
the other years, whom they had left
in the house, also were burned to death
The mother of the children ran to her
home as soon as the alarm was given,
but the house was about to fall in when
she got there, and as soon as she real
lied that her children could not be
saved she cried out that she meant to
drown herself and ran rapidly to the
Cumberland river near by, and, in spite
of all efforts to save her, threw herself
into the water and was drowned. Her
body was recovered.

The Lecnardtown Postofiee.-The ques-
ton Of new postmistress at Leonardtown
has been settled by the selection Of Miss
Maasle Maddox, who, we predict, will make
an excellent official. Rumor has it that
Miss Lizzie Turner is to be assistant and
her selection will, we know, be most graft
fiying to all who have business with the
office. Miss Turner was Mrs. Ching's as
sistant and performed her duties with cred
il 10 herself and with great satisfaction to
the public.
We, Of course, think il but right that 8
Democratic administration should give the
Office 70 Democrat, but take pleasure in
saying that wehave never been more cour-
teously treated by any official than we
have by the lady who has been pOstmis-
.ress at Leonardtown for the past foar
years. Mrs. Ching was good postmistress.

Seeking Southern Ports.

The first steamship of the Hunts
ington Line to make the trip from
Liverpool to Newport News -ars
rived at the latter port last Thurs.
day, having made the voyage in
ten days, very good time for a
freight steamer.
This trip marks the beginning of
a new TRANSATLANTIC line, of which
great things are expected. Presi-
dent ingalls,, of the Chesapeake &
Oaio railroad, which terminates at
Newport News, believes that a
large part Of the western produce
which has hitherto been exported
through New York viii be diverted
to the new line. He argues. and
produces strong reasons to show,
that Newport News Is a letter
and more direct port fer western
exports than New York or Balti-
more. The establishment of This
line is OF especial interest g Geor-
gia, as there is now well .organ-
lied movement on foot to esta blish
direct trade between Europe and
some port in this state. That will
be done before many months we
are quite sure. The Murray line
already operates between Liver
pool and Brunswick, and does a
good business.
There is a growing demand in
the northwest for a southern port.
The people OF that region desire to
cultivate close commercial relations
with the South, and they believe
shat the export OF their crop
through Southern ports car be
made mutually profitable.
The West is ready to cooperate
With the South in this great enters

The Parties and Nicaragua Canal.

The st. Louis Republic, COM
menting upon the fact that the Ms
caragua canal has gone into the
hands of a receiver. says there can
be no doubt that strong and wells
organized effort is to be made this
winter to put through Congress a
bill pledging the credit of the
Government to guarantee Nicarae
qua Canal bonds.
Each of the party platforms last
year favored this enterprise. 1t
must be acknowledged, however,
that such action was based upon
the supposition that the task OF
making the canal was in tair pro-
gress. Now that the enterprise is
in the hands of receiver a careful
investigation will be necessary. II
is useless to deny that ship canal
through the Isthmus will benefit
the United States. Anything that
will build mp our commerce is a
gain.
Aboat the object of the greatest
neglect by the United States to-
day is its commerce. The average
congressman seems to think that we
need sell nothing to the rest of the
world. He sees business enter
prises totter, the market glutted
and yet fails to note that it is bes
cause American made goods are
not sold as fast as they are made.
The Nicaragua cannot abso-
lutely remedy this, but 1t can
help
We arc not prepared to say that
the Government ought to back
this enterprise, though such ca
mai would help our country
While our party platform, like the
Republican platform, advocated
such aid, the action would not have
been taken if the enterprise would
be in the hsnds OF the receiver
This nccessitates an investigation
In behalf of the enterprise it may
be said that the recent months o1
stringency heve been exceptional
aud the result Of the inquiry may
show that the late action of til.

it exhaustively and reached vote
