The Defender Triumphs.

The international series of yacht
races between the Defender and Val
kyrie III. for Americas cup are
ended, and the trophy will remain on
this side Of the ocean. On the whole
it has been an extraordinary series,
and while the result is satisfactory to
the American people, two at least, of
the contests that went to make up
the match, were not. The Defender
won in clean race on Saturday. and
on Tuesday crossed the line but AZ
seconds behind the Valkyrie, Grip
Piled though she was. In Wednes-
days race the Defender had walk
over, Lord Dunraven, after his yacht
had crossed the starting line, with
drawing the Valkyrie from the race
on the ground that the course was
not kept clear of excursion boats.
His protest was not allowed by the
committee and the Valkyrie will i'm
mediately leave for England.

He Filled the Bill.

Henry Weppler of Virginia city
and Miss Ella Barnes of Lynn, Mass.
were married at Pony recently and
have set up house keeping at Red
Bluff. 1t may be interesting to
know that this is the couple that
were recently in Bozeman, where
Mr.. Webbler, who had been cores
ponding with Miss Barnes, first met
her. She had come all the way from
Massachusetts to marry him; but she
didn't propose to be in any rush
aboutit. She first got thoroughly
acquainted with Mr.. Weppler and
when she found that he was A No.
hard she took him. If there were
more Miss Barnes there would be

Thos. W. Pearsall in his application
for preliminary injunction against
the proposed consolidation of the
Great Northern end Northern Paci-

of the United States circuit court.
The decision was filed Saturday, the
court denying the motion of Pear
sail. The case will now be tried be-
fore the judge on its merits.
While this proceeding is prelim-
mary one, the victory is none the
less an important step towards the
consumation sought by president Hill.
A thorough investigation Of the sub
ject was given by Judge Sanborn,
and his deductions seem to point to
clear right to continue plan that
has SO long occupied the attention of
the business world. Judge Sanborn
says the final adjudication lies with
the supreme court.

Cholera in Honolulu.

Private advices received from
Honolulu, state that cholera has Sc
cured stronger hold on the Hawai-
ian capital than the authorities there
are willing to admit The natives
are said TO be much incensed at the
Honolulu health officials and do not
willingly obey their orders. 1t is
predicted that unless the disease
abates or some change is made in
its management the natives may re-
volt and resort to their favorite re-
medies for diseases riots and in
cendiarism. There are physicians in
Honolulu who enjoy the confidence
Of the natives, but the doctors are
not in favor with the health board
and can take no prominent part in
the suppression of the epidemic. If
put in control these men might do
more than the entire board of health
for they can convince the natives
that the sanitary regulations are for
their good and not part of white
mans plot to exterminate the Hawai-
ians.

THE BOX TURNED OVER.
Gambling in Helena Brought to n
Close in Hurry.

Gambling, which opened up in
Helena week ago, was stopped for
good Saturday night by County
Attorney Purcell and City Marshal
McCann. For several days it has
been common report that faro games
were running at four places, all up
stairs, in the city. The music of
the chips could be heard on any still
night from the walk in front of
Parchen's drug store or Tom Cron-
ms place on main street. The
county attorney and Marshal McCann
visited the places Friday afternoon
and ordered them to close up if
gambling was going on. They
were not able to find any games
running, but were satisfied that
gambling had been going on. On
that night the marshal and Sergeant
Callahan raided the joint in the
Parchen building, arresting the al
legged proprietors, Pete Kelly and
Donald Mitchell, and three other
men. Half dozen men who had
been bucking the tiger escaped.
The two principals were brought be-
fore Judge Gage. They waived ex-
animation and were bound over to
the district court on the charge of
gambling giving $500 bonds. The
other men were released on their
own recognition.

Beast.

Fullerton, Neb,, is greatly excited
over a case of revolving cruelty
brought to light by Sheriff Snyder.

kept in a stable with the calves and
other live stock. 1t was also as

with clothing of any kind during the

boy was taken charge of
by the authorities and his parents

Train Robbers Foiled.

A special from Kinmudy, H., to
the St. Louis Post Dispatch says:
Three train robbers attempted to
rob the north bound Illinois Central
express train about two miles north
Of this city last night. They were
riding on the platform Of the express
car. They cut the bell cord and
then attacked the car with sledge
hammers. Hearing the noise the
messenger applied the air brake and
brought the train to stop. This
frightened the robbers who jumped
off and made for a corn field.
Several shots were fired at them by
the train crew without effect.

ever before. The payroll reached
last month s2oO,0OO. The Brueck-
ner calcining furnaces at the Upper

fired up as fast as they are ready.
The work on the tanks of the new
refinery is about two thirds com
pleted, and it is expected that it will
be ready to start IN six weeks. The
dynamos will be driven by steam
power. Through the inventions,
which are kept strictly secret, of the
present managers, Mesers. Thofern

per is reduced to minimum. When
the new refinery starts the capacity
Of the plant will be increased four
times, The capacity of the shops in
the Tuttle Manufacturing & Supply

Welliver of Sappington, Mont, took
poison and died last Monday. Miss
Welliver is known to many of our

for the tragedy. Her home was
