The Neihart herald. [volume] (Neihart, Mont.) 1890-1901, 1895-11-02

Last Thursday was halloween ant
the extent and variety of its observance
at Neihart was never eXcclled in any
previous event. The tricks played wert
characteristic more of ten year olds thar
of men, although we regret to say thai
it is reported that the latter made VI
most of the force.
Man is but an infant of a larger
growth, but when he becomes so lost to
rules Of sense as to turn savage, it is time
that the strong arm of the law take him
in charge. 1t is said that the fiends O
d~eviltry ever stuffed up the chimney
over the city marshal's residence anc
it took that dignitary two hours next
morning to get breakfast.
They covered up or stuffed the mouths
of half the chimneys in town. They
%transposed signs in the most grotesque
and incompatible fashion. They over.
turned every outbuilding not anchored
to its foundation, and by main strength
or awkwardness moved some of the
smaller buildings to places the most
difficult of access. One of Hank Wilson's
buggies was carried to the roof of the
old Board of Trade building, 80 feet
from the ground. Not a portable ar
ticle was found next morning where il
had been left the previous dao.
Jim Kyle was asked yesterday why he
dressed his chimney top in canvas.
A lodging house sign was tackled to a
law shop, and the law sign nailed to a
small editice in Main street whose par
ticular name has for some reason been
omitted from the standard dictionaries.
A row of beer kegs was ranged in
front of a peanut emporium and a Chin
csc washee sign was hung before a mill
liner shop.
If the officers can only find the names
of the culprits it will not go well with
them.
J. W. Kerr did right to take a long
range shot at those who were trying to
tie up his front door.
jay Walker wants to take advantage
of the rise in road carts and so offers his
for sale. He says he never before saw
wagons go clear to the tops of three
story buildings in a single night.
Richard Bennett remarks that it is a
little our of the ordinary when such a
town as Neihart can boast of a law office
run on the European plan.

WhiHs of Sulphuretted Hydrogen.

A HERALD correspondent paid a visit
to White Sulphur Springs and vicinity
lately and picked up several facts worthy
of note. The business men of that place
claim a decided improvement in trade,
due mainly to the rise in prices of live
stock. In regard to farming and stock
raising we learned enough of these
Industries to pass in future as ex-
pcrts. Sheepmen are nov turning
their attention toward cotswold instead
of Merino sheep. 1t has been proved

imported, and the prospects of coyotes

ally good. Cattlemen are jubilant. They
are riding the range and gathering up
all the three and four year-olds to ship,
for beef is away up. The farmers are
turning their attention to alfalfa and
Burkshire hogs.
Max Waterman is devoting his at
tention somewhat to the rearing of
thoroughbred chickens, claiming to have
n fowl which scores SO points. Mr..
Waterman as authority on chickens is
one of the best in the state. He supplies
eggs and fowls for those desiring the
breeds best adapted for successful poul-

The Treaty Forbids.

Secretary Herbert has decided
against awarding the Detroit Tow
Boat company the contract for build

Notwithstanding it was the lowest
bidder. Presumably the agreement
with Great Britain binding each ma

ships on the Great Lakes caused this
decision to be reached.

The balloon swayed from side to

The only handicap to complete the

Of suflicient gas to take the balloon up
1,5oo feet.
The half-inch hemp rope which was
attached to the balloon between the
basket and the balloon proper was rove
through trail block attached to a mass

rope was carefully coiled In a tub so
that II could run freely as more rope

rope and paid It out slowly as ordered
by Prof. Myers.
When the descent was made the rope
was attached to the rear axle OF

stout horses. and they started OF at

tily to the ground as q dove alighting

A VERMONT SOLDIERS MEDAL.
Found in the Field Where McClel-

A gold medal was found on the farm
OF Dr Gustavus Brown. Dickerson
Station. Md. yesterday. which would
seem to have been lost while McClel-
lands army was encamped at that
place In 1862. Some 1aborers engaged
In digging postholes unearthed q bright
object about eighteen inches below tho
surface, and on examination 1t was
seen to be u medal about tho size Of q
ten-dollar gold piece. On one side 10 q
vignette of Gen. McClelland. encircled
by the letters of his name. On the re-
verse side. standing out plain and dis
tinct. appears the name Of Franklin
g. ,Pulisipher. Co. /. Twelfth Vermont
Volunteers
Cannon balls and other relics of a
battlefield are frequently found on the
Brown farm and as there was fighting
at Dickinson station during the war,
1t is not impossible that the medal was
lost in battle by the man who had won
1t by some brave exploit in another en-
gagemcnt, and that he himself fell on
the spot where the mark of honor has
lain for more than thirty years. but the
finders are inclined to think that It was
lost while the army was In camp. local
