A Gay and Sociable Gathering at the Rink-Happenings at Court. A Witness Getting too Fly is Arrested-Church Supper- Lieut. Avis' Case. DImTRICT COURT. Chsrl. R. Poluard. Prewla Judge. SPRINO TER--TWELFTH DAY. Court opened at the usual hour and the case of George W. Hedderich vs. James Taylor, et al., was taken uo. This was a very tedious case as a large number of witnesses were examined, and cross questions and objections were raised upon the slightest ground. At one stage of the proceedinge the judge had to arrange the attorneys at the table so they could not reach each other. At 8:30 o'clock the jury were instructed and retired in charge of a bailiff to deliberate upon a verdict. After being out half an hour the jury returned with a verdict for the plain- tiff, Hedderich, to the value of $1,210. The case of the Territory of Mon- tans against Dolph and Wiswell, in- dicted for stage robbery, was next put on trial. These two young men held up the Spearfish andgplles City stage a few miles from this city last Decem- ber. The evening was consumed in getting a jury and the case will be the first thing taken up when court opens this morning. The divorce suit of Elizabeth A. Johnson vs. Ole Johnson was decided for the plaintiff. NOTin. Banker Raymond, of Glendive, was in attendance on court yesterday. A number of ladies were in attend- anoo on court yesterday. They at- tended as witnesses. Miss Cooroy was in court yesterday keeping up her short hand practice. The lady is already a rapid stenog- rapher, but realises that practice is necessary to continue expert. Conmisalesers' Proee*doge. The board of county commissioners were in session yesterday and the fol- lowing business was tranected Mr. P. 0. Whithlbead having proposed to perform the services for bthe court house and jail as Janitor for $45 per meonth, on motion the above proposal was accepted and the clerk directed to notify Mr. Whitheadol the acceptance of his bid. The county clerk was notified to or- der a number of notices to be printed and to see that at least one notice should be posted in every saloon and gambling house in town, charging that minors should not be permitted to enter places of that description. The following motion was made by Commiseioner Anderamu Whereas, it appear from the records of the oterk of theboard la answer to adverUteiments heretofbre made by the b", proposiattmes have been e dv to 1exchange Coster county warabts andJudgments legally leased behtbe Jaune 1, 185, for Custer county bonste therefore beit EMrelved, thatthe board do proceed to Iase the bonds of the said county in the forft heretothre decided upon, to an amount sufficient to exchange for all suchb proposals as are now received, or soeh as may hereafter be received during the present session of the board; be it further Resolved, that all bonds issued at this sesesion be dated July 1, IBM, and Interest be computed on warrants to that date. The bosd was occupied during tie remaladirof the day in exanilir and auditing sialms against the county. tbs L U. &. oSa. The LadiWes' Union Sotal Club held their secoad dame seM night at the Rink.

The Rink floor is too well known to need a n y comments and dancing was kept up in the most vigorous style until:12 o'clock, when supper was suggested. Forewarned is forearmed, an old pro- verb, but amply verified on this ocnca sion. Each lady member of the club lhal made the most ample provision for the occasion, and the gueet4 were permitted to discuss a repast capable of satiUfyiug the appetite of the most fastidious. Dancing was again re- sunied and remained the order of the hour until the wee sma' hou.s in the morning, when it was only with the greatest reluctance that the guests de part, eaich one being unwilling to be the first to depart, and thus assist in breaking up what was so undeniably a successful dance. This club has met with a good deal of opposition, and more especially in Its lntaney, but now that its members have become so numerous, and both meetings having been so particularly successful, there is not the least doubt but that in the near future the date of the next L. U. 8. C. ball will be one of social af- fairs to look forward to. Rowiag Through the rapda. Fred Plaisted, the oarsman, says the proposilion of himself and Ross to row through the Niagara rapids is not the huge joke many seemed to think, but an enterprise that would surely be at- tempted. "I do not think it danger- one," he said. "The boat will have plenty of beam, a grating for a floor and no bottom. If we fill with water we can't sink, because we will have air-tight compartments around the boat and the water we take In will quickly disappear through the grat- lng. If anything should happen we are both good swimmers and would make a grand struggle before going under. It will be money In our pock- ets if we suooeed; and if we fail our wives and children will get the bene- fit of It. There is positively les dan- ger in trying to row through the rapids than there is going out on the frontier for 818 a month and found; and we get $2,600 for what we are going to do. One point about it is thas we row with our faces toward the danger, instead of rowing in the ordi- nary way. We were both up at Niagara Falls a week ago and made our calculations and measurement of distances. A War Iaeldost. Litt. Owen, in "Cunup and Battle," says that when the Confederate army marched through Frederick no one knew of the "Barbara Fretchie" inci- dent, but there wab one incident that they did know of. "On a small gallery stood a buxom young lady, with laugh- ing black eyes, watching the scene before her. On her breast sbe had pinned a small flag, the stars and stripes. Thin was observed and some soldier sang out: 'Look byar, nmlo, better take that flag down; we're awful fond of charging breastworks!' This was carried down the line amid sbout* of laughter. The little lady laughed herself, but stood by her colors." To mbh Dees. Sunday evening John Davis, of Butte, en route to Chicago, Jumped ofi a Bock Island train near Des Moines, Iowa, in spite of a brakeman's efiorts to prevent Several ribs were broken, his head was fractured and he was in- juted internally.

Andy Trumble, a prominent citizen of Valley City, Dak., was horse- whipped on Saturday by a widow named Humphrey. the claimed that Trumble had traduced her. Great anxiety Is felt, owing to the non-arrival of the British man-of-war Bellerophou at the: Barbadoes, where she was due February 27th. She l an iron plated ship of 7,650 tons burden. 6,520 horse power, carrying fifteen Tommy Hogan, of Butte City, was "held up" by three men at the aSum- mit, last Thursday night. Tommy laid low a couple of his assailants, and then the brave 2ogan went on his way in pesoe. If there was any enterprise mani- fested on the part of our eitisean the Fort Benton & Northern railroad would be under way in six weeks. But that article is so m~ly laeking that we despair of Its ever taing com- meneed.-River Press. Livingston has been sgui visited by the fire fiend, the Brunswiek hotel and a restaurant adjoining, having been burned last night. The fire is supposed to have caught from a defec- tive flue In the retaurant. The loss on the hotel M estimated at $6,000; it was not Insured. The restaurant was insured for $1,000. The appointment and confirmation of Mr. tlam M. Johnson as postmaster at Anaconda, took the people of that town by surprise and the appointee as well, for except the casual notise In the papers, he has had no lntelligenoe of the appointment. Bome months ago a pettion for his election to the onee was esreulated and rgled, but Mr. Ryan was appointed and confrm- ed, snd the eandidaey of Mr. Joheson had been allowed to lapse. Mr. Ryan was regarded as incompetent, but the people were making a gree of a as- eemity and trying to help him out with his duties.-Town Talk. A professional gentleman of Butte reoeived an levitation ur "himself and ladles" to attend the fireme's ball In Butte last Monday night. On the strength of the invitation he pun chased several tickets, his wife want to great expens in getting a head- some new dress, sad the eouple went to the ball.

"Consistency thou art a Jewel." It would have been just as well for the gentlemen who were so indignant at the presence of the lady mentioned to have remembered te words of the purest man that every lived, ",et him who Is without sin east the fint stone."-Centervile Jeurnsl.

five couples present, acuh couple be-ing conspicuous on their arrival witheither a basket or a parcel having asumetently edible appearance. TheRink floor is too well known to needan y comments and dancing was keptup in the most vigorous style until:12o'clock, when supper was suggested.Forewarned is forearmed, an old pro-verb, but amply verified on this ocncasion. Each lady member of the clublhal made the most ample provision

for the occasion, and the gueet4 werepermitted to discuss a repast capableof satiUfyiug the appetite of the mostfastidious. Dancing was again re-sunied and remained the order of thehour until the wee sma' hou.s in themorning, when it was only with thegreatest reluctance that the guests depart, eaich one being unwilling to bethe first to depart, and thus assist inbreaking up what was so undeniablya successful dance. This club has metwith a good deal of opposition, andmore especially in Its lntaney, butnow that its members have become sonumerous, and both meetings havingbeen so particularly successful, thereis not the least doubt but that in thenear future the date of the next L. U.8. C. ball will be one of social af-fairs to look forward to.

Rowiag Through the rapda.

Fred Plaisted, the oarsman, says theproposilion of himself and Ross to rowthrough the Niagara rapids is not thehuge joke many seemed to think, butan enterprise that would surely be at-tempted. "I do not think it danger-one," he said. "The boat will haveplenty of beam, a grating for a floorand no bottom. If we fill with waterwe can't sink, because we will haveair-tight compartments around theboat and the water we take In willquickly disappear through the grat-lng. If anything should happen weare both good swimmers and wouldmake a grand struggle before goingunder. It will be money In our pock-ets if we suooeed; and if we fail ourwives and children will get the bene-fit of It. There is positively les dan-ger in trying to row through therapids than there is going out on thefrontier for 818 a month and found;and we get $2,600 for what we aregoing to do. One point about it isthas we row with our faces toward thedanger, instead of rowing in the ordi-nary way. We were both up atNiagara Falls a week ago and madeour calculations and measurement ofdistances.

A War Iaeldost.

Litt. Owen, in "Cunup and Battle,"says that when the Confederate armymarched through Frederick no oneknew of the "Barbara Fretchie" inci-dent, but there wab one incident thatthey did know of. "On a small gallerystood a buxom young lady, with laugh-ing black eyes, watching the scenebefore her. On her breast sbe hadpinned a small flag, the stars andstripes. Thin was observed and somesoldier sang out: 'Look byar, nmlo,better take that flag down; we'reawful fond of charging breastworks!'This was carried down the line amidsbout* of laughter. The little ladylaughed herself, but stood by hercolors."
