HAMILTON HAPPENINGS.

week your correspondent said that an
attachment had been issued on the mill
and lumber of Mr.. Bean, on Skalkaho
creek. An error was made in stating
that the mill had been attached. 1t
was only the lumber. Since that time
Mr.. Bean has made a perfectly salts
factory settlement with Mr. Mendail,
and not only settled the claim on which
the attachment was issued, but he
showed his square dealing by paying
off the amount of a note for $3.50 which
Mendall had from him and which Men
dali claimed to have lost. Mr.. Bean
need not have paid this note unless pre-
scented, but took it up and received
receipt to the effect that it had been
paid His mill is running as if nothing
had happened, just as his friends felt
certain it would.
Mike Sullivan, who has been such d
sufferer from rheumatism, went to the
Wiles springs yesterday, having i'm
proved a little while here, and he has
hopes that the waters of the springs
will set him on his feet. His friends
here saw that he was safely taken up.
Somebody. name unknown to your
correspondent, has started the erection
of large new house to the north of the
city, and facing the railroad track.
NJ. f. Ramon and Henry Rcksiek of
| Butte are registered at the Ravalli.
| j. J. Phelan, wife and child, from
| Wallace, are at the Ravalli. Mrs. Phe-
Ian was here week ago, and her de-
! scription of the pleasures of a stay
| here must have persuaded John to take

yesterday in Hamilton, coming in on
Monday nights train. He has met

| transacting business in Hamilton yes
| terday. He states that the hail storm

The news that the supreme court had
| decided that the Welcome disbarment
case must be heard was received with
| a good deal of satisfaction here. There
are many of all political Affiliations who
| felt that the report of the grand jury
at Helena last winter was worse than
to see by what course of reasoning that
| jury could overlook the 100000 which
was in plain evidence. And the people
| here then expressed themselves to the
effect that the grand jury should either
Rave reported that Welcome was either
guilty or not guilty, and that if he was
| not according to the showing made,
then some one was at least guilty of
| conspiracy. And they are glad that
| the highest court of the state will now
| ascertain whGt9.re the ones responsible
for the disgrace put upon the fair name
of the state by reason of the open and
| barefaced bribery and corruption that
! is conceded to have been feature of
the senatorial contest last winter.
