THING OF BEAUTY.

Glowing Description of the Great syndi-
cate Circus.
The New Great Syndicate Shows have
made a successful hit wherever it has
exhibited. This show, which, will ex-
hibit in Great Falls Saturday June %,
is highly endorsed. The following is
from the Star, the leading daily paper of
Pueblo, Colorado:
"The street parade of the new Great
Syndicate Shows this morning showed
two special features. The humanitarian
could not have been i'll pleased with the
condition Of the horses, which are round
ed, fat and full of life. The other thing
was the cleanliness n bright appear
ance of the w%agons-in all a parade more
bright, attractive and more worthy of
remembering than any such that has
| visited Pueblo in years.
"The grand entry ut the circus is a
thing Of beauty, full OF glittering ban
ners, lovely women and handsome men.
Tho wardrobe is beautiiled without
cheap gorgeousness and the colors show
al bright as n rainbow. An immense
crowd attended this afternoon, all the

NEW FREIGHT RATES,
The Northern Pacific Has Prepared a
Schedule.

The Northern Pacific Has Prepared a
Schedule.
OMAHA, June l3.-For a long time past
the Northern Pacific has desired to
equalize the west bound Utah and Mon
tana freight rates, but the Short line
connection has prevented. Now that
this matter is settled the Northern Pa
cific has decided to revolutionize the
Utah situation and has prepared a tariff
to go into effect June Is. The idea is
to reduce rates from the Missouri river
to Utah common points on the ten
classes, and upon west bound commodi-
ties to the rates in effect from the Mis-
souri, river to Montana common points,
with the present rates from the Missouri
river to Utah as a maximum. There is
no intention to advance rates at present
lower to Utah than to Montana. This
equalization means much for Salt Lake
and Ogden. The Burlington people de-
clare they will meet the cut. AZ an in
stance of what the decrease will amount
to the saving on a 10000 pound car of
glucose amounts to $3.50.

THE MINERS DAY
Celebrated in the Valley City By
Citizens of Belt and Sand

over FOUR THOUSAND PEOPLE
Witness the Days Demonstrations
Address by Hon. j. E. Reynolds
Of Great Falls.
Special to The Tribune.

special to The Tribune.
BELT, June 13.-This has been the
biggest day Belt ever saw. The camp is
crowded with visitors. About seventy
five teams came in from Sand Coulee
loaded with visitors. A large delegation
is present from Great Falls and the sur
rounding towns and ranches have con-
tributed many hundreds Of visitors to
swell the crowd intent on celebrating
Miners day with due enthusiasm. The
parade was a monster one, comprising
800 miners belonging to the Belt union,
and nearly as many more from Sand
Coulee were in line. The committee
had erected a pavilion and platform on
an island up the river and this was the
scene Of the athletic games, which ex.
cited great interest, especially the foot
ball game and the baseball game, in
which Belt was matched against Sand
Coulee. In both these events Belt
proved the victor.
The baseball game was a very close
and exciting one, the visitors being
finally defeated by a score of IA to l3
Their defeat in the football match was
something of u surprise, Sand Coulee up
to date having easily carried off the hon
ore from all competitors.
Hon. j. E. Reynolds of Great Falls
was the orator of the day and addressed
the miners on labor organization. The
celebration will be finished up by a grand
dance this evening at the pavilion. 1t is
estimated that there are about 1000 per.
son in the camp today-more than eve
assembled here at any time before.

ers. less interested, could not resist the
masterful appeal to their sense of justice
and their sympathies. 1t was the grand
est effort Of the speakers life and was
the elimination of a defense which
throughout has been brilliant.
But the defense was compelled to con-
tend against a powerful combination of
talent, as was manifested during Attor-
ney Leelie's closing argument for the
state. Skillfully and e%loquently the lat
ter attacked every point in the defense.
With earnest words he resented the i'm
putations cast upon his colleague, and
it seemed to those who had not heard
the other arguments that Harry Grove
must be a villain of the deepest dye. Mr..
Leslie, too. declared that there must be
sympathy shown-sympathy for the
mother of the murdered man. No tele-
graph line could convey to her across the
wilds of Canada the news that her be-.
loved boy still lived. Critically the
speaker analysed the testimony, bring
ing into play %eloquence which surprised
and delighted his hearers; and as he
closed the general sentiment was that
he should be congratulated equally with
the county attorney. The fact that he
spoke entirely without notes added to
the effect Of his address.
Judge Benton then delivered his in
structions to the jury and at 6 p. M. the
latter retired.
At 7 p. IN. the jury reported that it had
agreed and the judge, clerk, attorneys
and defendant were sent for. Meanwhile
the jury was taken to dinner, returning a
few minutes before 8 p. m. Foreman
Brown handed the verdict to the court,
who handed it to the clerk, who endorsed
upon it the customary words, and then
read it.
As he entered the court room, the de-
PENDANT was pale and trembling. He
scanned the faces Of the jurors closely,
attempting to read the result. As the
verdict was read he flushed slightly, but
turned at once to comfort his father,
who wal silently weeping. Several Of
their seats and spoke words of comfort
to him. why didn't you fix the sent
ence?" Grove asked Juror Wilcox.
1--WE couldn't agree" was the reply, and
the defendant looked toward Judge
Benton, who remanded him to custody
until Monday, when he will be sentenced.
The penalty is from one to ten years
imprisonment.

Guilty OF Manslaughter.

lowing verdict: "In the district court of
the Eighth judicial district Of the state
of Montana, in and for the county of
Cascade. State of Montana. plaintiff, VS..
Harry Grove, defendant. We, the jury
in the above entitled action, find the de-
PENDANT guilty of m~anslaughter. (Signed)
w. F. Brown, foreman"
At $50 a. m. Wednesday Attor-
ney Freeman began his argument in be
half of the state. He Complementary
reviewed the testimony given and ar
raigned the defendant in the strongest
speech that a prosecuting attorney ever
made in a Cascade county court room.
He discussed every detail educed during
seven days of testimony and closed with
an eloquent and forcible peroration.
He was followed by Attorney Huntoon
for the defense. Mr.. Huntoon had never
appeared to better advantage, and in
burning words he condemned the wit
nesaes for the prosecution. His speech
was an grafton in the best sense Of the
word, and as he portrayed the solemnity
and pathos of the various scenes through
which he led his auditors everyseye was
suffused with tears, which stood in the
eyes of several jurors for many minutes
1t seemed to the spectators that there
was no more to be said in Harry Groves
defense, but Attorney Largent, who fol
lowed his partner, had scarcely begun
to speak until every auditor was hanging
eagerly upon his words. The speaker
voice was husky with emotion which hi
vainly attempted to suppress, but as hi
proceeded the walls OF the court room
rang. "Perjurers'' he called witnesse'
for the prosecution, and IL they wer'
guilty OF being false witnesses they mus
have Hmarted beneath tho sting Of hi
eloquence. Carefully he reviewed tn
testimony and AZ no concluded In q bril-

win the race. stood on after passing the
stakeboat for five minutes and then tackled
and stood over close in shore to Fisher
mans wharf. Then she started the old
tactics of beating down along the beach on
short tacks close in shore out of the flood
tide. In the meantime the rest of the fleet,
closely followed by the Edna, came down
behind her. In fact the Edna stood down
on this tack until she almost reached the
ferry slips. The Harpoon, between whom
and the Speedwell the race was supposed
to lie, Rugged Alcatraz Island and stood
up on long reach from the island. At
this time the Harpoon was apparently out
OF the race.
The fact that Eddie Howard was sailing
the Speedwell seemed plain enough indi-
cation to the onlookers that the new craft
was going to win the race, but when the
Harpoon came down on her long reach
from the island, it looked as if her skipper
and crew understood their business. She
dropped behind the Speedwell on the leg,
and great disappointment was manifested
by all who witnessed the maneuver. Had
the Harpoon fetched across the bows of
the Speedwell it would have been vic
tory, but Howard came about SO prettily
and so swiftly that the race was decided
there and then.
When close.under Black Point the Har-
poon doomed up, very close competitor
for the first prize. From this point out
the wind freshened, and it was nip and tug
between the Speedwell and the Harpoon.
The staysail of the Harpoon went by the
board as she came about on the port tack,
