Under the law the secretary of agriculture is bound to give preference to these men in mak­ing appointments to the force of the new weather bureau, and with the exception of a few men who were elected to remain in what will hereafter be purely the mil­itary blanch of the signal service, all of the employes are likely to be reap­pointed.

A special from Yuma, Arizona, says that the Colorado desert basin at Sal ton, sixty miles west of Yuma, is rapidly tilling up with fresh water, from some subterranean passage, believed to be connected with the Colorado river. At last advices the desert was being con­verted into an immense lake, and if the water continues to rise the Southern Pa­cific tracks will be submerged for a dis­tance of 100 miles and the Salton salt works be compelled to close up. The temperature there is very high, the thermometer registering 145 degrees.

The sixteenth annual four-mile, eight- oared, straight away race between the Yale and Harvard university crews was rowed on the 26th over the Thames course from Winthrop Point to Gates Ferry and won by Harvard by eleven lengths. Time, 21:23; Yale, 21:52. Har­vard’s victory was the biggest surprise in college athletics for many years. Good judges of rowing conceded the race to Yale almost to a man, and so strong was this sentiment in favor of Yale that staoks of money left at the pool rooms went uncovered, even at odds of $100 to 160.

The republican state convention of Iowa, in session at Cedar Rapids Wed­nesday, nominated Hiram C. Wheeler of Odelbolt, for governor, and Gen. Van Houten for lieutenant governor. The convention was presided over by John Y. Stone, who in the course of his speech praised the administration of President Harrison. He said: “All past peace ad­ministrations can be safely challenged. No president’s record of the first two and one-half years that will rival this. Great applause»] But one other can îere be mentioned—the right arm and joyal friend of his chief, the fearless and incomparable Blaine. [At the mention of the secretary’s name the convention went wild with enthusiasm.] He is the first citizen of the republic and he is its greatest civic hero.”

At Terre Haute, lad., Wednesday the supreme council of the Federation of

iS)"?»ir' Railway employes took up the applica­tion of the Order of Railway Conductors for admission. While discussing the proceedings, however, the conductors withdrew their application. Grand Chief Conduotor Clark gave his reasons substantially as follows; The applica­tion was withdrawn because we do not wish to belong to an organization which makes its own laws and rules as it goes along to suit the emergency. The action of tbe council yesterday in expelling the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen set­tled the matter. Each organization in the federation is entitled to three votes on all questions, but because Mr. Sar­gent was in the chair yesterday the fire­men were only allowed two votes. When­ever a representative of a labor organi­zation allows his personal feeling to in­fluence his vote or action, so soon does he fail in his duty to hisfellow men, and I believe this feeling baa controlled the action of the council ever einoe the Chi­cago meeting,

Twenty-eight thousand copies of the Detroit Commercial Advertiser were held in the Detroit i>ostoffice Monday under the lottery law. The president, vice president, secretary and treasurer of the company were arrested and fined 8100 and costs.

Prince George of Greece arrived in Chicago Monday morning from Omaha. He is accompanied by Captain Lahmer of the Russian navy * aud one servant. The prince is traveling incognito and registered at the Auditorium hotel as Count Folster. At the depot he was met by a delegation of the Grecian Be­nevolent association which escorted him to tho hotel. The prince was much pleased with the reception accorded him by his conntrymen.

A special from Wichita, Kan., says: A sensational rumor is current here to­night to the effect that an attack was made upon the Sac and Fox agency last night by an armed band of desperadoes, who are reported to have captured a large treasure and escaped with it. The Dalton gang is re{>orted to be connected with the affair. It is said Indian trad­ers who have been doing business with the Intlians since the latter sold their lands to the government, were the heavi­est losers. No verification of the report was received.

A company composed of New York and southern capitalists has just been organized with a capital of 81,(X)0,000 for cultivating a farm of 112,000 acres in Florida. This will lie the largest farm in the world, and upon it enough could be raised to supply the city of New York with food. The name of the company is the San Sebastian Land, Improvement, Sugar and Investment company. The farm lies between the Indian, San Se­bastian and St. Johns rivers. I t has muck soil similar to that in the valley of the Nile. The company does not pro­pose to raise cereals or garden stuff, but sugarcane and couoanuts, especially co- coanuts. This will be in the nature of an experiment, as cocoanuts are not in­digenous to Florida.

A Chicago dispatch of the 26th says: Last night the city council, after an ex­citing discussion, repealed an ordinance which was surreptitiously rushed through the council two weeks ago, granting the Chicago & Northern Pacific railroad for five miles the right of way within the city limits and conferring other privileges, the money value of which is alleged to lie enormous. Com­missioner of Public Works Aldrich, who lias been charged with responsibility for this peculiar transaction, made a per­sonal explanation to the council denying the accusation. It is said the railroad company, prior to last night, accepted the ordinance and that the document was signed bv the mayor, thus making the repeal later a nullity.

The treasury department is informed that a Canadian carjjenter named Win. H. Crawford, who had been dejiorted to Canada on the ground that his presence in this country was in violation of the alian contract labor law, returned to Miuhigan the same afternoon and filed his declaration of intention to become a citizen of the United States, with a view to removing his disabilities, and is sup­posed to be at work for Malcomb Blue, at Bay Mills, Mich., under the original contract. In acting on this case Assist­ant Secretary Nettleton held that Craw­ford's status is not changed because of the declaration to become a citizen, which step he regarded as a finesse to evade the law. Immigrant Inspector Schell is. therefore, instructed to notifiy Crawford tha t he is in this country un­lawfully, and must return to Canada

The census bureau, in a bulletin on the subject of aluminum, says:-.“This interesting metal has at last reached the state of actual production, and the Unit ed States is one of the leading producers. The all-important feature of the indus try at present, however, is the effort of a new process to reduce the cost of making the metal. Prominence is therefore given to the concise and very exact re­sult of the methods of the extraction of aluminum and their results for a num ber of years, with other valuable inform ation leading to this industry. The pro­duct for the census year 1889 was 47,468, pounds, including alloys, valued at 897,- 325. The principal sources of aluminum have heretofore been cryolite from Greenland and imported bauxite, but recently discoveries of bauxite have been made in Arkansas, which will no doubt lead to more extensive use of the domestic article.”

John D Sargeant, who was Robert Ray Hamilton s partner in the ranch near Yellowstone Park, and who ar­rived in New York recently, on last Sat­urday gave testimony before ex Surro­gate Daniel G. Rollins, as referee, con- cerning the circumstances of Hamilton’s death. Mr. Sargeant’s evidence is to be used in suits pending or to lie brought to ascertain whether Evangeline L. Mann, or Steele, or Hamilton, has any dower in his estate.

The evidence given hy Mr. Sargeant is the most direct and positive that has been furnished as to the death of Rob­ert Ray Hamilton, says the New York Herald. Mr. Sargeant declared that his purpose in coming here from his ranch was, if possible, to put a stop to the trash that was being printed in the newspapers about Hamilton not being dead. He came, he said, without invi­tation. It would Ije to his interest to prove that Hamilton was alive, and he was only too sorry to say that there was no question that he was dead.

Mr. Sargent was, perhaps, Hamilton’s most intimate companion in his western life, and he identified the watch and chain, fly book, pipe, fishing rod and old tooth brush which were found upon the body when it was discovered in the Snake river in the early part of Septem­ber last. He said that Hamilton was the eighth man that had been drowned in the Snake river that season.

A special of the 28th from Franklyn, Washington, says that strikers, angered at the action of the Oregon Improve­ment company in taking negroes to the Newcastle coal mines, started to clean out the negro camp. In the scrimmage four persons were killed. A deputy sheriff, who has been at the scene for the past four weeks, called for the mili­tia and two companies left tonight on a special train. The threat of the Oregon Improvement company to place negroes in its mines at Newcastle in place of striking white men was carried out this morning. The companv sent a special train to Newcastle with eighty negroes from its Franklyn mine. The strikers were all asleep when the negroes ar­rived and off their guard. At Gilman the strikers are maintaining armed or­ganizations and drill daily. The Seattle Coal and Supply company will undoubt­edly take in a force of men in a few days and start up the mines. Serious trouble seems almost inevitable.

A Galveston, Texas dispatch of the 27th says: During the prevalence of a severe storm yesterday afternoon light­ning struck and exploded the powder house of the American Powder company containing 2,000 kegs of powder. The concussion caused the Hazard, Dupont, Laflin and Rand powder houses to ex­plode. Although these powder mag­azines were located near Eagle Grove, four miles from the city, the shock of the explosion caused the houses to rock and sway in the city as if in the throes ef an earthquake. Glass was broken, doors flung open, plaster fell from the wall, goods came tumbling down from the shelves, and the people were badly frightened. Where the powder houses stood there is not a vestige of a building left and the hole in the ground is 120 feet in circumference and twenty-five to thirty in depth. Buildings in the im­mediate neighborhood and for three- quarters of a mile were badly wrecked and a number of persons hurt, one man fatally.

In the criminal court at Chicago Sat­urday Judge Collins quashed all the count« in the indictments against Geo. J. Gibson of the whisky trust, charging him with conspiracy and those for hav­ing explosives in his possession. The charge of attempting the crime of blow­ing up the Shufeldt distillery, thereby destroying life and property, was taken under advisement. During the argu­ments the infernal machine which it was alleged was found in Gibson’s va­lise when he was arrested was brought into the court room and exhibited to tbe judge. It consisted of a box containingk.d w 8 tU^Y IUj wh‘oh a conical steel bullet was btted, and beneath it was a string of coiled tow saturated with a dark colored liquid. To show its dan-

A F iend’s T ragic E nd.A Sparland, Illinois, dispatch says:

About twelve years ago John Carver died, leaving his widow and children about $15,000. The widow subsequently married a mere boy named Royal Frisby The youthful husband soon entered on a career of debauchery and began treat­ing his wife in the most brutal manner. The community for a long time has been incensed at his actions, but not until re­cently was the full extent of his brutal ity known. Saturday a white cap circu lar was sent to him and copies to many families. Attached to it was a prayer for his wife, saying: “Help us, for hu manity’s sake.” The circular detailed how, several years ago, he debauched his stepdaughter and when a child was born strangled it and buried it in the yard. Then Mrs. Frisby secured a di­vorce, and soon after Frisby, who had forced the girl to continue to submit to his assaults, compelled her to marry him. Recently she gave birth to another child Frisby got drunk and chased the family into the woods. Monday night, as he stepped out of the door of his house, he was shot down and instantly killed. G. H. Çulver, his uncle, and John Carver, a brother of the girl debauched, have been arrested for the killing. The killing meets with the approval of the commu­nity, and a hundred men have offered to go on the bonds of the prisoners.

CASTLE NOTES

(From the Reporter.]

Next Wednesday, the first day of July, we will have a daily from the railroad. The route direct to the Springs will be discontinued, the coaches making con­nections at the half way house. This is a very desirable change, with the ex­ception of the drawing off of the Springs line, as we greatly need direct commu­nication with the county seat.

The Armada hoist was started up Wednesday and it works like a charm. They have commenced the crosscut on the 100-foot level and work on this prop­erty will now be actively resumed.

Mr. C. J. Curtis & Co. will let a con tract to sink 100 feet on their coal mine. This is a good property. Some very nice coal has been taken from this mine near the surface.

Mr. Stoel of Livingston spent a few days in town this week. Mr. Stoel is one of those jolly sort, of a sunny dispo­sition, that business cares worry but lit­tle.

Mr. O. M. Hefferlin, one of Living­ston’s successful merchants, is in Castle attending the case of the Baltimore Min­ing company.

B IG T IM B E R ITEM S.

[From the Pioneer ]

Litigants of Big Timber have to gobe- fore Judge Strong of Melville or before one of the judges of Livingston to have papers issued.

Work on the artesian well is at a standstill, owing to the lack of a steel cap for the casing. The cap will be here in a day or two.

Mr J E. Barbour will probably be ap- uointed justice of the peace for this K S o u t h e 6th of July. All the acts of lawlessness heretofore perpetrat­ed can then be brought before bis hon- or.

There will be A base ball game here on the 4th between the Livingston nine and the Big Timber nine. The boys are practicing and feel confident that ir they oan’t do up the Livingston nine they can give them a hard rub.

The school bonds were sold at a prem­ium of 865, making ^ O B for the issue. They were purchased by Mr. H. P. Pal­mer of Helena. This speaks well for the financial standing of the district and

insures a good school house which will be built in time for the fall term of school.

P a rn e ll 's M arriage.A London dispatch says: Mr. and

Mrs. Parnell entertained some friends yesterday evening at Washington ter­race and received today several inti mates. Parnell has sent greeting to a number of his adherents in the com­mons expressing pleasure that the long period of suspense is over and thanking them for their steadfast friendship du r ing his troubles.

He wntes under the apparent convic­tion that his marriage will enable him to be reinstated as the Irish leader. A strong impression in the same direction prevails in the commons, in spite of the knowledge of the fact that the Catholic clergy will not accept the marriage as condoning his offense.

English liberals are ready to hail him as a nan doing his best to atone for his faults. No immediate restoration of confidence between Parnell and the lib­eral leaders is jiossible, nor is it proba­ble that the faction feud will end with­out long opjK)sition from some of his now irreconcilable enemies, but the marriage has deprived his foes of their most jk> tent weapons of attack.

His moral position assured, political restoration, it is generally believed, be­comes a matter of time. The future plans of Mr. and Mrs. Parnell indicate that after a period of seclusion it is their intention to enlarge their social life.

Mrs. Parnell talks of leaving Brighton and taking a large house in London. If she wins Iter probate suit she will 1h> rich and able to entertain. Those know ing her best say she aims to form a po­litical and artistic salon, to create which she has capacities equal to her ainbi tion.

It has long been known that she has been a valuable political ally of Parnell, with whom she has discussed every turn of affairs more intimately than any mem­ber of his party. I t can be predicted with certainty that under hdr open guid ance Parnell will immediately modify his tactics.

In the fight with the McCarthvites re­conciliation will l)e the watchword. The first contest, Carlow, will be fought on the Parnellite side w ith great attention to personal amenities.

McCarthy has practically withdrawn from the leadership of his party, his physicians warning him to avoid excite ment.

S ta tu s o f F o r t E llis R ese rv a tio n .Courier: The register and receiver of

the local land office are in receipt of u letter from Assistant Commissioner Stone, of the general land office, affirm­ing their action in rejecting the appli­cation of L. H. Carey to file upon a cer­tain tract of land on the Fort Ellis res ervation. As many of our readers are interested in this matter we publish herewith a synopsis of the letter.

Mr. Carey had offered his tiling at the land office, taking the ground that the tract was exempt from reservation for the reason that settlement had been made thereon, prior to such reservation, by one Duncan McArthur, in 1864. The honorable commissioner holds that only the original settler can' proceed to per feet his title to said land and says:

“That any settler who was in actual occupation of any portion of such reser vation prior to the location thereof, or settled thereon prior to Jan. 1st, 1884, in good faith, for the purjtose of securing a home and of entering the same, and has continued in such occupation to the present time, and is by law entitled to make a homestead entry, shall be enti­tled to enter the land so occupied, not exceeding 160 acres.” He also says that “as Carey Joes not claim personal oceu pation of the lands prior to the location of the reservation or prior to Jan. 1st, 1884, he cannot come within the law above referred to, and his application was properly rejected.”

Mr. Carey still lias a right to appeal to the secretary of the interior, but it is not likely he will do so.

We are at a loss to know why the state has not made its selections upon the Fort Ellis reservation as provided in the act of Feb. 13, 1891. The selections have been made from other reservations and surveys ordered. I t may, however, be the intention to allow this to go by default and have it all thrown open to homestead entry. If, on the other hand, the selections are to be made, would it not be well for some of our influential democrats to bring the proper influence to bear upon the governor and have such selections made this summer, so that the survey could be made and the remainder thrown open for settlement the coming fall.

E p iscopal Convocation.Chronicle: The eleventh annual con­

vocation of the Episcopal Jurisdiction of Montana, met at St. James church in this city on Sunday and continued its sessions until Tuesday night, when it ad­journed to meet at Livingston Wednes­day to consecrate St. Andrew’s church of that city. There were seventeen Epis­copal ministers present, also several lay members from various places in ttie stete. Bishop Brewer was president. Rev. E. G. Prout of Deer Lodge, secre­tary. The services on Sunday were of unusual interest, the church being filled. The morning sermon was delivered by Rev. J . W. Van Ingen of Livingston, the evening sermon by Bishop Brewer, who gave an account of the year’s work. Two deaoons, one of whom was Rev. Dr. Quinn of Anaconda, was advanced to the priesthood. On Monday evening there was a missionary meeting the es­pecial feature of which was addresses by several of the visiting clergy. The next convocation will lie held at Helena, probably.
