Toana, New, Sept. 1.-THE first
section of the special train bear
ing the Colorado soldiers reached
here at S:25 this morning. We are
eight hours behind schedule time

The first sleeper caught fire last

been burned in one end of the car.
Another dash of excitement fol-
lowed when thief was caught in
the act of robbing one of the boys.
In addition these there have
been several fstic encounters, and
barring few eyes which "have put
on mourning" all is we'll. These
affairs have helped break the tedi-

TRAFFIC IN GIRLS.
Mrs. Char1eton Edholm Delivers Her
Lecture at the Baptist Church. e

Lecture at the Baptist Church. e.
Mrs. Charlton Edholm delivered her
lecture on Traffic in Girls to a small!
audience at the Baptist church last night
under the auspices of the Butte Women's
Christian Temperance union. Mrs. Ed
holm was introduced by Mrs. Cummings
Of the local union, who said she was one
of the most aggressive workers in the
national temperance union.
Mrs. Edholm Drefaced her appeal for
fallen woman by saying that since last
Tuesday night over 1000 young girls had
been betrayed and started on the road to
ruin. She told how, while she was en-
gagged in the newspaper business III San
Francisco. Evangelist Crittendon induced
her to take UP the work of rescue, and
told of her efforts since then in rescuing
women from lives of shame, cigarette
smoking, wine drinking. dancing and the
theater. She said the liquor traffic-the
saloonkeepers and those who vote fer
them-are responsible for the greater num-
Der of the ruined girls. OF the 100000 be-
trayed women. at least three-fourths of
them, she said, were trapped and SHARED
by the treachery of some one.
Mrs. Edholm related instances of where
country girls were induced to go to New
York to accept situations offered through
newspaper advertisements, and after be-
ing trapped, were sold to houses of pros
titution for $25. The average age Of the
thousand girls who have been led to ruin
since last Tuesday night is but Is years.
The speaker told of cases where girls were
taken to houses of ill-fame by force while
drugged, and Kept there prisoners behind
locked doors until they learned to smoke
cigarettes and opium and drink wine and
whiskey and after they had once ac-
quired the three-fold appetite they no
longer wished to leave the lives they had
| been forced into. In New York city every
| 30 days there are 1000 new and nameless
| graves of girls whose wrecked lives are
| ended by disease or suicide. Mrs. Ed
| holm said there were 20.000.000 Christians
| in this country. and If they could not
rescue 100000 fallen girls Christianity was
| a. failure,

OF late counsel have become so numer-
GUS about the Jail that they have be-
come a good deal of a nuisance. and in
not a few instances alleged lawyers

to the issuance of an order to the city

to be no Ginning" of the prisoners

on large additional force of work
men, in accordance with the instruc-

class rooms are crowded and relief is
absolutely necessary. The Aluminium

couple of months, and then the con-
gested condition of the rooms will be

BARKER WAS BOUND OVER
Held to the District Court for
Grand Larceny
FOR ROBBING NITA LANE
When She Grew Tired of Supporting
Barker in Idleness, He Cruelty Rs
paid Her Kindness by Brutal
ly Beating Her.

Fred Barker was held to the district
court by Justice Harrington yesterday
:: the conclusion of his hearing on q
Charge OF grand larceny. Barker was
the secretary of the young woman, Nita
Lane, who some days ago rected the
story of her blighted life to the police
when she asked to have Barker arrest
ed for robbing her She said she had
formerly been a respectable school
teacher in Los Angeles, but got the gold
fever and went to the Klondike, where
the society of Swift Water Bill and
other bonanza kings was too swift for
her and proved her undoing.
The young woman was the main wit
ness against Barker and in her testi-
ner of repaying her kindness to him.
She is an exceptionally handsome wo-
man, with big blue eyes and a wealth
of nut brown hair. Dressed in a neat
fitting, tailor-made suit and sealskin
coat. she was a vision of loneliness that
seemed very much out of place in the
dingy surroundings of the. justice S
court room. A patch of court plaster
on one side Of her face and discolora-
tions under her eyes bore silent evil
dence of her former lovers cruel treat
ment.
In telling her story, the young wo-
man said Barker had lived with her for
long time, she defraying all his ex-
| penses. They came here, she said, on
oct. 1 and took room at the Maule
block in West Park street. That night
they quarreled because she had grown
tired of supporting him in idleness, and
because she thought he ought to do
something for himself he beat her
shamefuliy. so severely that she was
obliged to call physician. The doctor
gave her an opiate to ease her pain and
she, "he came to the room. I had re-
| covered consciousness and he greeted
me with the remark, as he came in:
| Well, old lady, I've soaked your ring
| what do you propose to do about it?' -
| The young woman then told of calling
| the attention of the police to the matter
when she was able to get out
d. w. Brodie Of the Blumpkin pawn
| shop told of Barker coming to him and
paWning a diamond ring for $40. The
ring was produced and the young wo-
man was called to identify it. She said
| she bought it at Denver and had it on
| her finger when she was given the
| opiate by the physician.
| Detective Murphy testified to arrest
| ing the defendant at a road house. AT
| that time he admitted having pawned
the ring and asked that he be given an
| opportunity to get the ring out of pawn
and return it to the woman.
| Attorney M. L. Wines, who appeared
for the defendant, announced that the
! defense had no testimony to offer, and
made plea for moderate bail in the
event his client ,,Was bound over, as he
| apprehended he would be. Chief Dep.
uty County Attorney Cornelius Kelley
for the prosecution, remarked that he
| thought the bond should be sufficient tc
| insure Bankers presence when the case
came to trial in the district court, and
Judge Harrington made his order hold
| ing the defendant and fixing his bal
| at $500.

IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY
A Clinical Preparation That Positively
Kills the Dandruff Germ.

A most important discovery has been
made after a years patient labora-
tory work aimed in a certain direction
1T is Newbro's Herpicide, a prepara-
ton that cures badness, prevents fall
ing hair and speedily and permanent
ly eradicates dandruff. These evils are
caused by a germ or parasite that bur
rows into the scalp, throwing up dam
druff as it seeks to sap the life of the
hair at the root. There's no badness
without falling or thin hair, no thin
hair without dandruff, and no dan
druff if the germ is destroyed. New
bros Herpicide is the only prepare
ton that will do the work. Destroy
the cause, you remove the effect"

THE MIKADO.
A Beautiful Production of the Opera by
the Grau Company.


The Grau Opera company gave a
beautiful production of the "Mikado"
last night. 1t was most handsomely
staged, beautifully costumed and, on
the whole, well sung and played. Louise
Moore made a very excellent Yum Yum
and Miss Minnie Emmett a sweet
voiced and charming Petit Sing. Carrie
Ward was Pee 30 and Alice Gaillard a
fairly good Katisha. Stanley Felch,
of course, was cast for 10 Ko and filed
the part to the entire satisfaction of
his friends. Martin Pache. as Nanki
Poo, had many opportunities to display
the qualities of his voice. To those
who have heard better tenors sing
Nanki Poo's beautiful numbers Mi.
Pache may have been disappointing in
the part. Charles Swickard also failed
to reach expectation as Poo Bah. Rob-
ert Lett won the appreciation of the au-
dience as the Mikado. The same opera
will be given at the matinee this after
noon and this evening Paul Jones'"

The Mayors Edict Had the Desired
Effect.
Mayor McCarthy's edict in regard to
the cleaning of sidewalks had the de-
sided effect. Men and boys have been
steadily at work cleaning off walks in
every part of the city, and while the
almost continual fall of snow renders
their work practically useless, still
they keep on scraping and sweeping.
The snowfall yesterday was heavy and
wet and navigation about town was
