WHITE MAN ARRESTED
FOR NUMBERING GIRL
c. II. Massey Accused of Endipo
Life of Dora Williams.
Crime Was Committed in Phill;ns
County Last Summer and Led
to Arrest of Massey.

Helena, Nov. I'D. w. King,
specially deputized officer, arriv-
ed in the city today bringing with
him G. NJ. Massey, who is wanted
for criminal assault and the murd-
er of a young white girl named
Dora Williams. Massey was cap
tured in Craighead county, near
Lake City Word had been re
ceived here that he was in jackson
county, but he was found to have
gone from there to Lake City. in
Craighead county. On reaching
that place Mr.. King found that
Massey was not there, but traced
him down into the basin of the St.
Francis river into wild country,
where he was finally located with
the assistance of a local constable.
The crime for which Massey
was wanted was a terrible one.
The man, with his wife, lived on a
place near Coffee, a little town
some twenty miles west of here
Some time last August the exact
date seems to be unknown even to
the witnesses in the case), while
Massey's wife was away from
home, he hired this girl, who was
only about fourteen Years old, to
keep house for him until Mrs.
Massey returned. one morning
tire girl was found dead An IN
quest was held by Justice of the
Peace Robert Raney, and the girl
was found to have come to her
death from the effects of NOR
phine. but no blame was attached
to any one for the death
Nevertheless, many OF the
neighbors suspected Massey Of
having given the girl morphine,
and that she died rom the treat
ment she had received. Massey
became frightened, and, 1t is alleg-
ed, stealing horse belonging to
Hal Williams, he left the country.
At the October session of the
grand jury he was indicted for
criminal assault and murder in the
first degree, and since that time
Sheriff Kitchens has been hot on
his trail.

HELD Up BY MASKED NET.

One Of the boldest robberies on
record in Arkansas occurred at
Xancluse few days ago. Two
masked men walked into a saloon
and held the proprietor and the
crowd at the end of a gun and re-
lieved the cash drawer of $50.
They also took all the pistols and
guns they could find. Then the
pair backed out of the door with
threats to shoot the first man who
stuck his head out, mounted two
mules which we're hitched to the
rack, belonging to parties In the
saloon, and rode off in the dark
ness. As yet they. have not been
heard of.

SOLID GALENA.

outside Of Phoebe.
There is a persistent rumor on the
streets Of Salt Lake that in the
Garrison shaft of the Pioche-N Nevada
Mlhlng company, out of Phoebe, six
feet OF solid galena, with a sulpbide
OF silver, has been exposed and that
everything denoted the presence of
mat sensational category Of ore
bodies that characterized and rem.
dered the old camp so productive at
an earlier period. The Garrison
shaft is 1900 feet distant from the
main workings Of the property and
was started down by Judge John w.
Burton during his recent visit at the
camp. Robert Brady, secretary of
the company, said he had been I'M.
able to confirm the story, which an
pears to have been brought in by
visitors from Phoebe, but said a car
OF ore would be on the mrrket Inv
March 18th, this to determine
whether or not shipments shall be
continued pending railway construc.
ton into the camp. An astonishing
condition at the properties is that
ore has appeared in the group at
whatever point the ledge has been
prospected, and that it is now ex-
posed in no fewer than five independ-
ent openings. The management feels
that its dreams are about to fructifv

A SENSIBLE SPEECH.

In a temperate and logical address
in congress on the matter of the
Bristow report, charging congressman
with obtaining allowances for post
Offices through influence" Congress-
man Spalding demolished the infer
ence that because congressman were
alive to the interest of their constitu-
ents they were corrupt or tainted with
graft" Mr.. Spalding clearly showed
the fallacy of the differences that have
been drawn from the report in some
cases by the press and people, and
while he stated that attending to the
interests of his constituents in his de-
partments was not part of his neces-
sary duties and was not required Of
him by law, he said that mo part Of
my service as representative in
congress has given me greater pleas
ur than to aid the postoflce depart
ment in its efforts to meet the
changing conditions in North Dakota
and to serve the veterans of the civil
war by securing as far as possible
early and favorable consideration of
their righteous claims in the pension
department" All of which rebounds
to Congressman Spalding's credit.
Further. Mr.. spa1ding said: For
my efforts in behalf of my constitu-
ents offer no apologies and have
none to offer. I only regret that in
many instances have been unable to
secure what to me seemed proper and
adequate to meet conditions"
In the close of his address Mr.. Spald-
ing said: PERSONALLY I am not
alarmed at anything contained in the
report Of the postofice department or
OF the committee. They only go to
show some activity on my part in be-
half Of my constituents and the In
Justice done me, If any, consists In
naming only a very minute fraction of
the instances in which I have sought
to serve them in such matters, We
should be glad to have the facts
shown. This, however, cannot be,
and we must fall back upon the faith
