SLAUGHTER BY ROAD AGENTS.
Mysterious Disappearance of Miners in
Early DAYS of Montana.

The discovery up to the fall of 1868 of
no less than 40 bodies of victims of the
road agents had finally aroused the feel
ings of the law abiding citizens to a pitch
of frenzy. They felt that the mysterious
disappearance Of many other men whom
they had known was to be traced to the
bandits.
Scores of miners who had set out with
large sums Of money for various places
had never been heard of and had never
reached their destinations. Murders oc
Cured daily, almost hourly. Had there
been the most perfect system of legal
procedure time would not have permitted
of the orderly trial of offenders, so fire.
Quent were the crimes. Alder gulch con-
tinued to disgorge its treasure in a steady
stream, and the very excess of its bounty
excited the most selfish passions of men.
The heart of a man possessed with the
thirst for gold is like the country where
gold is produced-it is wild and barren.
and the flowers wither.
1t must not be supposed that during
these long months of sickening dread
and doubt attempts had not been made
to organize justice. Rude courts were es-
tablished and the guilt or innocence of
offenders submitted to regular chosen
iuries, but the staggering outlaws would
boldly force their way through the lin IS
of spectators and into the presence of
the qualified twelve men, announcing
their determination to aVenge upon every
one connected with the case, any out
come other than acquittal.
Witnesses and jurors under these cir
cumstances were afraid for their lives,
and justice had miscarried until the out
laws, seeing the blanch of fear every
where were supreme. In the early stages
of this reign Of terror some of the road
agents had been tried, found guilty and
condemned to death by unanimous vote,
but between conviction and punishment
motions to reconsider had interviewed,
and the vacillating mob, through fear or
relenting doubt, had revoked the action
of the previous hour.-McClure' Maya

BADGER FOUND GOLD MINE.
Strange Story of an Old Miners Discov-
ery in Nevada

n. II. George, Santa Fe yardmaster,
has taken a layoff of three weeks and
gone to Nevada to develop a gold min
ing claim which he has there. There is
quite a story back of his going.
Mr. George grub staked an old miner
who had struck a streak of bad luck.
This miner finally found some excellent
surface indications in the Nevada noun
tains and staked his claim. The pros
poets were so good that Mr.. George, his
brother and his brother-in-law took three
adjoining claims. The old grfzzled miner
worked away all winter on the funds
supplied him by Mr.. George. His de-
velopments were encouraging, but did not
pan out large quantities of the yellow
metal.
A short time since another old miner,
in hard luck, came past this first miners
claim, carrying his kit of tools with him.
Mr.. Georges friend was naturally lone
some and invited the stranger to take
a claim, and after looking over the sit
uation this stranger decided to do SO.
An evening or two later the two miners
sat on ledge of rock talking when
badger came into sight. The miners
gave chase, and the badger ran into a
hole or the strangers claim.
They went to work with their picks
and soon dug the badger out, and in do
ing so they made a remarkable discoy-
was made on a big chunk of the very
richest of gold ore. The gold in the stone
on which he lay was worth $4,000. In
this way they discovered a rich vein OF
gold bearing quartz which runs through
both their mines as we'll as those belong
ing to Mr.. George, his brother and his
brother-in-law. Mr.. Georges trip to Ne
