A BOGUS GOLD NUGGET

Letters from kanowna, Australia, re-
ceived by parties in thisc city eXplodes the
story of the finding of the largest gold
nugget in the world over in Australia of
which the papers had so much to say
about the first of the year. 1t seems two
mining men who had smelted together l.
800 ounces of gold quartz had showed it
to a priest. They told him that a dying
man had a vision, and made the location
of the mine known before he died. They
claimed they went there. describing the
place, and found the gold nugget The
priest in time happened to tell a reporter
and he printed a small account of it which
became magnifed to a terrible extent.
The priest was so besieged with enquiries
about the location that he at last an
ounce that on a certain day if the own
ers did not come forward and make the
place known he would do so. When the
time arrived fully 5000 people were pres
ent, All men. The priest told all he
knew about it. A stampede followed to
the place where the gold was reported to
AVE been found There was no gold
there and in due time the truth in the case
was found out. Men went out to the
place on horseback and every conceivable
way to return in the end in utter disgust.

ABUSED AN OFFICER

This morning at $50 o'clock a railroad
man, John Doe, and E. Dorian engaged
in a fight on Main street. Doe, who was
drunk, was the aggressor. Officer Steb-
bens arrested him and was subjected to
the most horrible profanity and abusive
language. The officer was told he dare
not strike him ore he would have him
arrested and make him pay another fine
of $25.
You policemen said the prisoner,
cannot strike anyone now. If | &C to
Jail you will have to drag me-"
And he came pretty near making the
officer do it. A business man who
watched the proceedings said that was
the result of fining a policeman a short
time ago because he used his club on a
man who resisted arrest.

County.
RESULT OF EXPERIMENTS
1t is Shown That the Harder Fruits
Can be Raised in This Sec
ton of the State.

Orcharding in Deer Lodge county is re-
ceiving considerable attention and al
though it is situated at the very base of
the Rocky mountains and at a high alti-
tude. the harder kinds of fruits are rails
ed in many of the valleys. Fifteen years
ago the residents would contradict the
statement that any kind of fruit could
be raised within the county. Through the
careful experiment of a few ranchers the
successful raising of fruit has been de-
mOnstrated in favored localities I'M
til today, there are several good orchards
in the county. The best orchard in the
county is owned by l.. Hollenback, four
miles west of Gold creek.
His orchard is made up of apple trees
of the hardy variety, among them the
Wealthy, Duchess, Yellow Transparent,
etc, besides a large collection of crab ap-
piles. The ground on which the orchard
stands is just a little gravely and slopes
to the north. The first fifty three were
planted seven years ago and are now
yielding prolifically. In the spring of
1897 he planted 500 new trees, making a
total of about 900 fruit trees. He pro-
nounces the climate of Deer Lodge cOun-
~ cOnSenlal enough Tor apple trees ana
says his venture is a success. Near this
splendid orchard, is a smaller orchard
owned by Frank Kaiser. He has less than
100 trees, but they are good bearers.
His place is we'll adapted to fruit trees,
and a quarter of a century hence may see
this orchard enlarged to 5 900 trees.
To say fruit trees will not grow and
bear fruit in Deer Lodge county is pre-
posterous. Even at Helmville, in Ne
Vada valley, where the snow remains
on the ground nearly six months in the
can be found plenty of bearing
fruit trees. Less than a mile from
Helmville, J. c. Moore has a small
bearing orchard and raises apples that
a credit to any country. Still there
are some years when early frosts raise
and kill the crop.
D. w. Williams, an old-time Montan-
an, has taken up a ranch on uppar Demp-
creek. From him it is learned that the
cold weather did not injure the
trees in James Perkins orchard,
near him. He says Mr.. Perkins is laying
plans to set out many more apple trees
of the varieties best suited to this section
in the spring.
These are we'll known orchards in their
respective localities and the example set
to the other farmers is a good one, for
there is nothing more gratifying or bene-
fetal to any community than diversified

Will be made at the coming session of the

CRAZY ACTIONS

Andrio Lusaik, presumably from Butte,
was arrested at Elliston two days ago
charged with being insane. He was
brought to Anaconda last night by Spe-
cial Constable Robt. Roberts of Elliston
who arrested him. Lusaik has a mania
that he is twice a millionaire and talks
considerably about his imaginary wealth.
He also had a mania while in Elliston of
peeping through the windows of the resi-
dences. He said that for the past few
weeks there were men who were trying
to rob him of it, but he emphatically re-
fused to be buncoed. He was well ac-
quainted with several very prominent
persons of Butte who would surely get
him out of Jail.
