BUTTE NEWS.
YOUNG IS BOUND OVER
His Case Will Come Before the
District Court.
THE EVIDENCE is STRONG
Young's Defense Is that He Found the
Copper Water Jacket in Manure
Heap-It Belongs to the Butte
q Boston Company.

John Young had his preliminar,
hearing yesterday afternoon befor
Justice Harrington on the charge o
receiving stolen property knowing i
to have been stolen. The case gre"
out of his having sold to Junk Dealer
NJ. Goldwater a copper water jacket
that had been stolen from the Butte
& Boston shelter. The casting was
stolen a long time ago, but it was not
till about six weeks ago that it turned
up at the junk dealers, and Young S
arrest was one of the results of the
organized effort that is being made by
the mining and smelling companies to
put a stop to the annoyance they are
put to by petty ttieving. AT the hear
ing yesterday the case was prosecuted
by Chief Deputy County Attorney Cor
nelius Kelley and the defendant was
represented by Attorneys Healy and
Yancy.
Defective Murphy, who was called as
the first witness for the state. told CT
finding the casting at Goldwater's junk
yard and taking possession of it. The
junk dealer could not at the time fur
nish the information as to who Young,
the man who had sold him the cast
ing, was, but later learned his identity
and Young was arrested.
NJ. Goldwater, the junk dealer, re-
lated the circumstances in connection
with his purchase of the casting. He
said Young came to his place with
team and wagon and offered the cast
ing for sale. He asked the man where
he got 1t and Young replied that he
had had It for a long time. Witness
1@v rrrk,& unI a
teamster for the Butte & Boston COM
pany, and asked him if the casting
belonged to that company. He said it
did not. He then asked Young if he
had a right to sell it and Young re-
piled that he had. Later, when the
officers came and claimed the casting,
the witness went to the Butte & Bos-
ton smelter to try to find Young, but
was not successful, and some time af-
terward he met him and found he
worked for the Montana iron works.
John Farrell, foreman of the foundry
Of the Montana iron works, identified
the casting and the pattern from which
1T had been made. which were in evil
dence. He said he helped make the
casting for the smelter people.
Joseph H. Vivian, purchasing agent
for the Butte &, Boston company, was
called and stated that the company
never sold the casting.
j. j. Egan, bookkeeper for the Mon
itana iron works, testified to the firm
having made the casting for the Butte
& Boston company. -rs
After a motion to dismiss was over
ruled, Young took the stand and de-
MED coming into possession of the cast
ing unlawfully, but said he found it
in manure heap. The rest of the de-
Tense consisted of the testimony of
several witnesses relative to the good
character Of the defendant
AT the conclusion of the hearing
Judge Harrington bound the defend
ant over to the district court for trial.

Another Sad Death.

Ed, E. Berkshire, Il well known
printer and newspaper man. and a
brother to Joe s. Berkshire, after
q week. painful illness of pneu
monia. died last night at II o clock.
The beginning of his illness was
marked with severe suffering and
hemOrThageS of the lungs, which
held close to him until the last.
His friends hardly expected his re-
covery, but his brother seemed
hopeful to the last hour, remaining
constantly by his bedside, closely
watching every change of the dread
malady and rendering every posi-
bile service.
Although the young man was &
dong way from home, yet there wa,
no dearth of wo1nan's nursing, fol
from among his and his brother
many friends every service wa.
rendered them. The deceased haC
been proprietor of different news

A Visit to the Jail.

The prisoners here in the federal
Jail in common with everyone else
have not escaped from the rava-
geS of grip. However before any
were stricken with the malody the
wards for the care of the sick had
been built and furnished where the
sick could be given every necessa-
~ attention. Through the kind
ness of officer Jones Il representa-
tive of the ARDMoREITE visited the.
hospital in company with the Jail
physician, DIR. w. T. Gardner
The officials are TO be cOmpli-
mented upon the equipment and
cleanliness of the rooms. All the
sick are improving nicely and are
grateful for their kind treatment
and skilled medical atteptiOn.
1t is noticeable that a small per
cent of the prisoners are sick com
pared with the universally of the
grip epidemic and no cases have
proved fatal.
The construction of the Jail ad-
mits both air aud sunshine with
J plenty of room for exercise and
are many times preferable to the
old stone prison where prisoners
are continually kept in a close
dark room.

A Bad nan.

w. j. Shelton of Daugherty
boarded the evening train yester-
day as it passed through his sta
ton, and judging from his con-
duct he must have had a few
drinks ahead. An alteration arose
between him and the conductor
and by the time the train reached
Ardmore both men bore evidences
in the way of scratches about the
face of scrapping. Shelton was
put off the train here, taken ili
charge by the authorities and en-
ioyed a nights sleep where rO
train conductor could invade his
rights or trample upon his privil-
eyes. He enhanced the city treas
ury this morning for his unbecom-
ing conduct and was allowed to
return home. He had between
SO and 800 in his pockets. and
of course was out hunting som,
