THE NEW BUILDING.

1t has been patent for several years
past that new church or place of wor-
ship was necessary for the Catholic
membership in the south end of the city.
A lot was at one time purchased, which
was sold a few days ago to Phil Ber-
mower for $2700, upon which 1t was
thought feasible to contract q build
ing. However the location was not as
desirable as the present one. People
who had to come all the way from North
Industry and other points south of this
city many times spoke of the incon-
venience of the long distance to the
northern part of the city. 1t was finally
decided that IL was necessary that q
new church be erected and work be
commenced on the same at the earliest
possible moment. Bishop Horstmann
was appealed to and he chose for a
leader for the new congregation a man
who had won popularity and promi-
nence in church work at other places,
with much perseverance and contiued
a lication of his wonderful energy and
fervor Father Treiber, formerly of
Crestline, was chosen for the local con-
gregation and he entered upon the work
with confidence, knowing that he could
perform his duties of organization with
the assistance of people who appreciat-
ed the work which was to be carried out
and knew full well the difficulties which
were to be encountered
A committee was appointed to select
and secure options on several pieces Of
land which might be suitable for the
construction of the new building. A
new church building was not counted
upon In the plans, but school house
was decided upon in which might be
built chapel for temporary use. and
that when sufficient funds were avail
able a new and most magnificent
church structure would be begun.
Plans We're ordered drawn by a we'll
known architect and final option Sc
cured on the ground which the new
building will stand. A large amount OF
money was laid out In the purchase of
the grounds, but block suitable for the
purpose was bought, as It is intended

exhaustive investigation was made
There has been too much pottering with
this science, for I believe it to be a
science and an important one. A year
or two ago the British Society of Psy-
chical Research devoted a pamphlet of
several hundred pages to this But they
accomplished nothing. They merely
showed that the force exists, but they
did not show why it exists. do not
known why or what it is. | believe,
though, that I have discovered some
phenomena connected with 1t which
others have overlooked or have not
talked about.
In the encyclopedia you can read
about it under the head of Bletonism.
Here is the nearest attempt to COM
prehensive explanation, believe,
though I cannot say that the explana-
ton is correct. Bleton was an ignorant
French peasant, who lived some 60 or
10 years ago. He attracted attention
by his divining water, and a commit
tee of eminent scientists investigated
him. They decided that Bleton's power
lay in his lacking electricity to a mark
ed degree. You know there Is more
or less electricity in the human body.
We are not equally supplied. Those of
US having less than the average guam
tity are said to be negatively charged,
those having more positively charged.
Now, as the clouds are the atmospheric
conductors of electricity, SO the under
ground mineral and water masses and
streams are underground conductors
Therefore when man negatively
charged with electricity comes in con-
tact with a large quantity of electricity,
as body of water, for instance, the
earth being a conductor, he feels it., it
attracts his entire system 1t runs up
his arms and causes headache. It is
very exhausting to me if I indulge in
it much.
II remarked that I had made some
new discoveries. One Of them is this:
Some years ago when gentleman from
Australia, whose name I forget, came
over to this country to investigate for
his government our drainage system i
was with him in Grass valley. There
was large party of us, including la
dies. I found that some women are
possessed of an electrical or magnetic
quality which / have never found in
any man. AS 1 say, never use fork
ed stick. I simply become sensitive of
the shock, very mild shock, when I
pass over a spot where water is near
the surface. 1t is the same as if I grasp
ed very lightly charged live wire. I
found that If. selected say a dozen
ladies and held their hands separately
while standing over the underground
current the effect upon me in the case
of one or two of them out of the IL
was to entirely eliminate the shock
from me and transfer it to the particu-
lar lady whose hand I held. Yet that
lady could not experience the sensa-
ton If she let go my hand.
I'VE went further than this in the
way of testing my power, and learned
that IL / held a hand of each of two
ladies whose effect was as above, one
being on each side of me, and If they
in turn grasped the hands of any num-
Der of people, in the form of a circle.
then the mild shock was transmitted
through each person. We successfully
performed this experiment a few weeks
ago in this CITY,"

CHARGED WITH FORGERY
Joe O'Donnell Accused Of OBJ
tanning Goods Fraudulently.
HE WAS ONCE WEALTHY
Young Man Whose Fortune Was Esti-
mated at $780, 900 Now Occupies
Prison Cell-M j. Connell and
Robert OToole Victims.

Joe O'Donnell, only a few years ago,
was prosperous young man, whose
wealth was estimated at about $40, 900.
He was lavish in the expenditure of
his money, and red liquor, hot birds,
silks and the green cloth in due time
got the strange hold on him and he
is now in the clutches Of the law with
the serious charge Of forgery staring
him in the face. A few weeks ago he
was arrested on complaint of the Con-
nell company and placed in the city
Jail, and subsequently taken to the
county jail.
Yesterday q complaint was formally
filed in Justice Harrington's court,
charging him with forgery. The king
pin in the structure which the law has
erected about the prisoner Is the fol-
lowing order, which it is alleged is a
forgery, pure and simple:
For value received I hereby sell. as
sign, transfer and set over to NJ. j.
Cornell company all money due or
hereafter to become due to me for labor
performed for the Butte & Boston Con-
solidated Mining company during the
month OF November, and authorize said
NJ. ]. Connell company to collect and
receipt for the same.
ROBERT O'TOOLE."
Dated this 7th day of December,
1885; witness, J. T. Braddock.
The complaint recites that the sigma
ture to the above order was forged by
Joe O'Donnell who by so forging and
uttering and passing and publishing as
true and genuine the signature of the
said Robert O'Toole to the said order
swilfully and unlawfully and feloniousy
and falsely and fraudulently and know
ingly to prejudice, damage, cheat and
defraud the said M. J. Connell COM
pany, a corporation aforesaid. and the
said Robert O'Toole, of the sum of
$3.50, lawful money of the United
States"
1t appears that OToole is a miner
who occasionally gives orders for j. his
wages to secure payment for merchan-
disc. O'Donnell, it would appear, con-
ceived the idea of raising a few dollars
by forging the miners name to obtain
an overcoat and pair of long legged
gum boots. These articles he pawned
with Harry Blumpkin, and the rest of
the story will be told to the court at a
future date. q t

MINING IN THE NORTH
Operations in Neihart Taking
On Increased Activity.
THE MOULTON AT BARKER
Company Engages an Expert Engineer
to Make = Thorough Investiga-
ton of the Property-Gos-
sip About the Group.

Great Falls, Feb. Ginning opera
tons at Neihart seem to be holding
their own in extent and even show signs
of increase during the coming summer.
At the Gait ]. l.. Neihart, one of the
principal stockholders, went into the
mine with his son, Henry Sutton, about
two weeks ago and started work by
opening Slopes in quiet way. They
have been working steadily until they
were able to put 10 men at work taking
out ore. Frank Merton Of Arlington
and c. D. Ladd Of Great Falls, two
other heavy stockholders, were in camp
this week and held a consultation with
Mr. Neihart, as result of which it is
reported that the mine is to be thor
oughly opened up and a larger force of
men set at work. At the present time
all of the work is in the Queen tunnel.
The ore looks we'll and the mine will
yet make it's owners rich.
Frank Miller, superintendent of the
Moulton mine of Barker, has recently
returned from a trip to Milwaukee and
expects City Engineer Benzenberg of
Nii" ouhSV " aiilSC liiiS NSSh. L ilC ial-
ter has been engaged to make a thor
ough survey of the mine and map of
the workings. The company owns four
claims in one group, consisting of the
Harrison, Belfont, Pioneer and Moul-
ton. A tunnel 1882 feet in length has
lately been completed on the Moulton,
attaining a depth Of 1856 feet below the
surface. This tunnel is for the most
part in hard rock, but partly in ground
so soft as to make progress very diff
cult.
This tunnel was run for the purpose
of tapping vein Son the Moulton which
has been exploited from the surface by
means of shaft 100 feet deep. This
vein was last summer under lease by the
United Smelling ard Refining company
of Great Falls, and over 1900 tons of
ore were extracted! The vein lies be-
tween a lime foot and porDhyry hang
ing wall and is well defined. At places
the ore body was solid galena seven
feet in width
About 900 feet from the entrance to
the tunnel the miners encountered
ledge of oxidized iron which proved to
be about 40 feet in width. 1t contains
some silver and gold, and is valuable
for f1uxing material. Besides this the
tunnel crosses number of veins whose
character would seem to Justify eX-
ploitation. rst
