Murdered By Robbers

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Jan. AT Lu.
verne, Ala, Mr.. and Mrs. William
Bush, respectable people living five
miles from the station, we're found
murdered. When the neighbors arose
they saw the windows of the Bush
residence open. The doors were Sc
curely fastened. Mr.. an Mrs. Bush
lay in bed weltering in blood, their
bodies riddled with bullets. The crime
was committed buJ few hours before
as the wounds were fresh. The cause
is thought to be robbery as Bush was
known to have considerable money
and none of it can be found.

BISMARCK CONDESCENDS TO
PARDON THE EMPEROR.

All Germany is wild with enthusi-
asm over the reconciliation of Prince
Bismarck and the emperor OF
Germany. Not long since Bismarck
was i'll at his castle at FREDERICKSBURG
and the great heart OF the people OF
that magnificent empire he had cre-
ated went ont in deep sympathy to
the "Iron Chapcellor." The young
fledgiing that occupies the throne be-
came alarmed at this universal sym
pathy and had the pOlicy-not the
courtesy-to send messages OF con.
dolence to the man he had most deep
ly lnsulted. This was the preliminary
to terms of reconciliation that
he subsequently sent to the prince.
Bismarck loved Germany,and no doubt
he thought the grandson of the great
man who had been most intimatly
allied with. himin creating the empire,
needed his friendship and advice and
condoning the open neglect of the EN-.
peror and burying the animosity of
four years he accepted the offers of
peace and went to Berlin to shake
hands and dine with the Emperor.
No monarch has ever been received
at the historic locality of his great &C.
complshment with more honor and
feeling than was Prince Bismark when
hearrlved in Berlin. AT every station
along his route the people were col
lected by the thousands and
the moment his train neared
the depots and his familiar
face was recognized at the car
window the German cheer of "Hock,
hook, hockn drowned every other
sound. Arriving at Berlin he was
met by the roy atty and all the priu.
Ciple officers of the empire, aud his
carriage drove through the streets
under a shower OF roses and the plau-
dts of more than an admiration, for
It was an outburst of love and joy at
the restoration of one of their greatest
and grandest heroes.
The dispatch says he followed 3
prince, escorting him, into the
carriage waiting for him. That is
TO say little upstart of royalty
claimed precedence over Bismarck
How utterly insignificant, how weak,
and puny, aud woebegone are the
whole present race of Hohenzolerns
compared with "mau," and such
man as Bismarck.
The propositions of reconciliation on
tas part of the kaiser were prompted
Solely by selfishness. He had been

year amounted to ST. 2.-Philipsburg

The Australian gold is redder than the
Californian, and this difference in color
is always perceptible when the gold is
1000 fine.
There is movement on foot whereby
the B. y M. company purpose building
their own road from Great Falls to Belt
and thus supply its smelter with their
own fuel
German mineralogists have discovered
that some of the gold mines worked by
the ancient Romans in Central Portugal
will yield d handsome profit still if
worked by modern methods
A carload shipment of ore has been
made from the Carter creek properties
to Dillon. 1t is proposed that reduction
works be built near Dillon for working
this ore instead Of having to send it
away.
AT Idaho City, Idaho, in hole being
bored to explore placer gold below the
false bedrock, the drill has struck gold
ledge that appears to be large. The rock
assays three ounces Of gold and % ounces
Of silver per ton. The important discov-
cry was made at a depth Of 470 feet.
Each train to Philipsburg these days
brings in a large number of men who
are seeking employment in the work
lately begun by the Granite and Bi-
Metallic companies. Already there is
about three men in the district for every
job that is offered.-Philipsbu Mail.

There has been general exodus from
Wardner during the past few days, about
twenty men have gone to California and
nearly 900 have scattered to different

taking their families with them. Nearly
twenty trunks were carried to the depot
to-day, and others are preparing to leave.
There is no doubt that the closing Of the

AS TO ALASKA.

John IIca1y. an Old Montanian. Pro-
nounces II !; Great Country.
John Healy, Of Juneau, Alaska, recent
ly visited Montana friends. He was a
former resident of this state, but for the
past few years has been an Alaskan, in
terested in business at Juneau and in
navigation and trading on the Yukon,
with posts at Fort Cudahy and Sellirk,
1000 and 1850 miles respectively from
the mouth of the great northern river.
One Of the company's boats, Of 400 tons
burden, plies the waters Of the Yukon to
the head Of navigation, Selllirk. The
country about Fort Cudahy is a placer
mining region, the digginys being on
small tributary streams Of the Yukon.
AS high as 100 ounces Of gold has been
washed from the auriferous ground III 4
single weeks run One hundred dollars
to the man per day has been more COM
monty realized, and ounce diggings is
more frequently averaged. The winters
are rugged-colder at times than eNpe-
rienced in Montana. The most serious
drawback to mining operations is the
shortness Of the season adapted to that
kind of work Mr. Healy carries in his
pocket specimen nuggets not unlike
many dug from Montana placers. The
largest nugget Of which he has knowl-
edge, washed from the Alaskan diggings,
was Of the value Of $504. OF course,
Yukon navigation is closed about half
the year.

Resumption of.the Hatta.

There is a probability Of the lIatta (not
"Hattie,' as all the papers persist is desig-
mating it), near New Chicago, will be
started up in the near future. The IIatta,
we believe, is a silver-lead proposition
carrying small value in gold. 1t has
been exploited to q considerable extent
and makes llattering showing. j. A.

taken, also holds considerable block Of

AVICTORY FOR DELLA
A VERY SATISFACTORY DECISION IN
THE HERSHFlELD CASE. =.

The Marriage of Della Hogan and Aaron
Hershfield Declared Legal by the Fargo
Court-The Fair Victor Given an Ova-
tion-An Appeal Threatened. ...
FARGO, N. D., Dec. 1.-THE Hershfield
case is ended and the young bride Of the
Montana millionaire has been declared
by court of equity to be a legal wife.
Judge Mcconnell gave the decision,
denying the application of Aaron Hersh-
field for the annulment of the marriage
contract Immediately after the conclusion
of the arguments of the counsel. The
decision was given orally, the Court stat
ing that he did not care to point out that
the testimony was unworthy Of credence.
The plaintiffs claim, he said, that two
armed men forced him to accompany the
defendant to the office Of Justice Of the
Peace, where they were married under
duress, must be substantiated SO clearly
that there was little room for doubt, or it
must be shown that the plaintiffs mental
condition was such that he was incapable
of making contract. The first position
he did not think was clearly sustained.
He believed Aaron Hershtield a changed
man, but not to the extent that he could
be held to be irresponsible. He had TAX
en- careful evidence; had followed each
witness closely and was confident he had
lost no point that would be of benefit to
the plaintiff, and saw no other way in
justice than to hold the marriage contract
valid and deny the decree.
The Judge had warned the spectators
that there was to be no applause, and the
crowd respected the command, but
when he said 81 deny the Decree the
sigh of relief that went up swelled to
nurmurs of applause But outside the
court, where nothing could prevent
the iubilation of the crowd, women who
had never seen the defendant until she
came to Fargo, pressed forward to grasp
her hand before leaviny : the room.
81 am happy woman again, for the
first time in year." was all she could
say.
In the afternoon Mrs. L. Il. Hershtield,
who appeared in court for the first time,
was put on the stand FOR few moments,
denying parts Of the conversation with
Mrs. Aaron Hershfield. Closing argu-
ments were made and then the Judge de-
livercd his decision.
