A SHOOTING sCRAPE.
Night Marshal McHoes Takes a Crack at
Bill Bostwlck While Trying to
ESCAPE,

EbChpes
Ralph McHoes, the night marshal
shot William Bostwick last Sunday
morning about 2 O'Clock, after the latter
had struck the marshal in the face and
was trying to run away from arrest. The
trouble started in George Raver's saloon
when the proprietor informed Mr.. Bost.
wick, the father of the young man, that
he didn't want him about his place of
business. Some months ago, Mrs. Bost.
wick had notices served on all the "a.
looms in Custer not to sell her husband
any more liquor, but it seems that some
one had procured it for him as he was
vlsibly under the influence when he en-.
tered the saloon. Soon after entering
Mr.. Bostwick became very abusive and
when Mr.. Rayer attempted to eject him
the son interferred. Here mir. McHoes
stepped into the melee and was struck
in the face by young Bostwick. The
marshal then informed the young man
that he was under arrest and started
with him to Jail. The prisoner made a
bolt with the idea of getting away. Nc
Hoes fired twice, the second shot taking
effect in the left leg below the knee.
The bullet, which was 32.caliber, was
by DIR. Rate Sunday after
loon. Young Bostwick appeared in Jus.
ice McFadden's court Monday morning
nd was fined $500 and costs.

Good Game Sunday.

A ball team from Deadwood will visit
us next Sunday to try conclusions with
our own players. This team has some
thing of reputation in the northern
Hills, and will, no doubt, put up game
worth seeing. Our boys are in good
shape and expect to win. Ii is a game
which you cannot afford to miss, so come
out. Remember that if it rains, you
can always find seats in the grandstand.
As the Hermosa ball team, which was
to have played here last Sunday, was
unable to come, game was played be-
tween mixed teams representing the
New York Mica mine and Custer, some
members of the regular team playing on
each side. The weather was hardly
conducive to fast playing, but the game
was really more interesting than any
played on the local diamond this year,
the game being close to the end and
lacking that one-sided score characters.
tic of others played here. Some of the
playing was bit ragged but it was off
set by the general good work, and as
both Heidepriem and Courtney, the op-
posing twirlers, were in good shape,
there were few hits, and scores were far
betW cen. The mica mine won in a bril-
liant ninth inning rally, a two base hit
by E. Courtney bringing in two runs,
and making the final score to 4.
a week from tomorrow, or Sunday,
August llth, Custer plays TT. Robinson
on our own grounds. This will be an
other good game.

Special Meeting of Town BOARD

Meetings of the Town Board do not as
rule attract much attention, but there
are exceptions, and the Town Board
last Thursday held one that brought out
nearly all the ladies of Custer, and filed
the court room where it was held with
an interested audience. This was a
special meeting of the Board and the
occasion of the meeting was to investi-
gate complaint made by the ladies OF
the Royal Neighbors, charging the Night
Marshal of the Town, Mr.. Ralph Nc
Hoes, with having exceeded his author.

ladies as they were coming from the
lodge in manner unbecoming such an
officer.

that the said Marshal carried club or
bludgeon which he fourished in an
alarming manner. Some of the ladies'
were certain that this bludgeon was fully
so long," bot others of the ladies.
whilst they were sure that the bludgeon
was there all right, would not be quite
positive as to the length of it, and still
others owned that they did not notice
that there was bludgeon at all, but
were quite, quite positive that while
they themselves were not alarmed, the
other ladies were.
Before matters however had come to
this stage, the day Marshal, Mr.. Charles
Miller, had also heard the racket and
came out TO investigate, but when he
found out the cause of it, being a wise
Marshal, he decided that the noise was
merely an error of mortal mind and
went home.

Clara Belle Litigation.

1t is still hoped and believed, says the
Pioueer-Times, that the litigation COM
menced by the eastern stockholders of
the Clara Belle Gold Mining company
will be withdrawn, or amicably and
rightly adjusted. If not Frank Hebert
is prepared to fight, and the local stock
holders are with him. They will stand
together. Col. Parker and S. C. Policy
of Deadwood will represent Mr. Hebert
and the other Black Hills stockholders
The eastern stockholders took the first
trick by stealth. Mr.. Hebert took the
next two in the open, and holds a win

reasonable concessions to harmonize
matters and get the mine to working.
He is as confident as he is that he

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Costs Nothing to Try.

Nearly everybody knows that char.
coal is the safest and most efficient dis

the human system for the same cleans

Charcoal is a remedy that the more

Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on

Charcoal eifectually clears and i'm

teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money is
in Stuart,s Charcoal LoZenges: they
are composed OF the finest powdered
