AN UNFAITHFUL WIFE.

John IL. Hoover and Mrs. j. B. shaw
Arrested ON "a Charge of Adultery.
|. John H. Hoover, we'll known railroad
man, and Mrs. j. b. Shaw, the wife of a
barber, who keeps shop on Second
avenue south, between Third and Fourth
streets, were arrested Friday night about
midnight by Joe Martin, on warrant
sworn out by the injured husban d,
charging them with adultery. The facts
in the case seem to be that the couple
have been pretty intimate lately, more
so than the husband approved, and
few days ago Mrs. Shaw left her hus
bands house and has not returned since.
Having we'll founded suspicious that she
was passing the time somewhere in
Hoover's company, the husband has
been doing little private detective work
on his own account, and succeeded last
night in locating the guilty. couple in
the Montana house. He at once pro-
cured warrant, and about midnight
Officer Martin proceeded to the room
occupied by the couple and knocked on
the door. 1t was opened by Hoover, and
the situation in which the couple were
found, left no doubt as to their guilt.
The woman was quite cool and collected
as she dressed herself to go to the police
station with tho officer and was ready to
joke and take the situation lightly, evil
IDENTIFY not realizing the gravity Of the
charge against her. Hoover seemed to
understand the situation better, how
ever. Both parties, go rudely interrupted
in their slumbers, were lodged in the city

S. B. Robbins, who has been attending
the irrigation convention at Denver, re-.
turned Thursday. To THE TRIBUNE nc
stated that the meeting was one of the
most enthusiastic and beneficial to the
cause which had ever been held. Sene
ator Cary explained to the convention
the purpose of the donation Of million
acres of land to each of the arid land
statee. This gift is made to the state on
one condition only, and that is that the
lands selected are reclaimed. The state
is left to accomplish this in any manner
it sees fit, either by doing the work itself
or by n aking such concessions to private
persons or corporations as will induce
them to take up the work and reclaim
the waste lands 1t is matter which
will be brought before the legislature
next winter and the wisest and best
methods of reclaiming this land and
securing the mupifcent gift of Uncle
Sam will doubtless be adopted.

CATTLE MEN STRICTLY IN It
The Chicago Market Has Been Boom
ing This Week-Best Prices Of
the Season.
An Old Timer Tells Of the Prices
Realized for Montana Cattle
Years Ago.

The cattle shipping season is now
fairly we'll under way and it becomes
more and more evident that notwith-
standing the stimulating effect of prices
on the Chicago market, which are higher
than those obtained for several years, the
cattle shipments from northern Montana
will not be nearly as large as last years
shipments. The hard times of last year
caused the cattlemen TO send to market
about everything from their herds which
would sell at any price in order to raise
cash and the result is that there are not
the cattle in the country this year to
ship. The Chicago market Monday of
this week showed Montana cattle bring
ing as high as $4i0 per hundred The
great scarcity OF corn-fed cattle has
compelled the buyers to look to fat
range cattle as a substitute, and fortu-
nately Montana cattle this year are in
excellent condition. The cattlemen are
not grumbllng these days over
the returns received. The poor
sheepman, however, has little to be
thankful for. Considerable money is
now coming into the local banks
of this city as a result of the cat
tie shipments. H. ). Ford, president Of
the Great Falls National bank aud an
old cattle man said to The TRIBUNE
yesterday that while the present prices
on the Chicago market were the best
obtained for several years they did not
begin to touch the prices obtained IN
the palmy days Of the cattle business.
In reply to a question as to the best
figure he remembered for Montana cat
tie he said that Dan Flowerree sold
bunch on the Chicago market in 1883
which brought him over $50 head.
He did not remember just what the
average weight was but the price was
over So a hundred. In 1885 Mr.. Ford
got 50 hundred for cattle on the
market. He had a small bunch on the
market last Wednesday which sold for
S4.l0 Mr.. Ford was Of the opinion that
the shipments this year would be con-
siderably lighter than last year, but that
fat cattle would bring even better prices
than those now quoted before the sea

Mark A. Rep!ogle of Cedar Rapids,
Ia, is in the city to look after the put
ting in of a gauge and governor for the
electric light company's power house.
The device is one designed to regulate
the velocity of the water and its flow
from the penstock into the wheel, and
if it works as we'll as is expected will
prove great improvement, enabling the
company to instantly increase or dimin-
ish' the power derived from the water
wheels and thus keep the lights steady
At present it takes some time to get an
increased pressure on the wheel, as after
the gate is opened wider the pressure
does not increase till the increased flow
reaches back 200 feet or more to the
other end of the penstock.

In its review Of the copper market for

Engineering Journal says: Cooper is a

quite so brisk as it then was. Many of
