Capture c f Noted Crim inal».

Under Sheriff Hathaway and Officer David Boerum arrived Sunday, having in charge Bill Carey, captured recently in Miles City in company with the notorious desperado and Outlaw, George Dixon, alias George Parrott, alias “Big Nose George. ” Carey is an alleged leader of the band of horse thieves whose bold operations in the Sun river country pro­duced such general and wide-spread alarm, and for whose arrest the citizens of that lo­cality offered a reward of $1,000. Dixon and Carey were conveyed by steamer down the Yellowstone and on to Buford, from which point the former, in charge of Sheriff Rankin, of Carbon county, Wyoming, was taken on to Bismarck, and thence by rail by way of St. Paul and Omaha to Rawlins. With the other prisoner, Carey, Officers Hath­away and Boerum took the up-bound Missouri steamer Red Cloud, reaching Benton on the 13th, and thence traveled by coach to Helena. “Big Nose George” will be remembered as one of the gang of highwaymen plying their thieving, murderous work in Wyoming. He was engaged in U. P. train robberies and has, amoDg other crimes, no less than four mur­ders to answer for. Rewards amounting to $2,000 were offered for his capture. Simul­taneously with the jailing of Carey here comes the news of the safe imprisonment of Dixon at Rawlins.

—Decatur (111.) Republican : The chiefreason why Hancock should be elected Pres­ident, according to the Democratic press, is that he spent four years in attempting to shoot the life out of the Democratic party.

—N. Y. Tribune: Alabama responds with

C atarrh .

The remedy is crushed cubeb berries smoked in a pipe, emitting the smoke through the nose ; after a few trials this will be easy to do. If the nose is stopped up so that it is almost impossible to breathe, one pipeful will make the head as clear as a bell. For sore throat, asthma and bronchitis, swallow­ing the smoke effects immediate relief. It is the best remedy in the world for offensive breath, and will make the most foul breath pure and sweet. Sufferers from that most horrible disease, ulcerated catarrh, will find this remedy to be unequalled, and a month’s use will cure the most obstinate case. A sin­gle trial will convince any one. Eating the crushed berries is also good for sore throat and all bronchial complaints. After smoking do not expose yourself to cold air for at least fifteen minutes. The berries are perfectly harmless, and there is no use going to catarrh

1H. K. Church South Conference.

We are apprised by Rev. E. J. Stanley that tue Montana annual conference of the M. E. Church South, will convene in Butte, Sep­tember 15th. This body is composed of all the regular traveling ministers and four lay delegates from each presiding elder’s district in the Territory. Rev. Bishop Doggett, D. D-, of Virginia, will preside over the confer­ence. Bishop Doggett has a wide reputation as a man of culture and an able and eloquent preacher of the Gospel. Rev. Dr. Wilson, the Missionary Secretary of the Church, of Nashville, (formerly of Baltimore,) will ac­company the Bishop. He is also an eminent divine, and those who have the privilege of listening to these distinguished visitors should not fail to use it. It is expected that they will visit Helena.

A greater number of guests are at the White Sulphur Springs than at any previous season. Helena is quite largely represented there, among others by Maj. J. E. Blaine, Dr. and Mrs. Reece, Mrs. R. E. Fisk, Mrs. Silver- man, Mr. John Sweeney, Mr. S. Schwabe, Mr. D. P. Lake, Mr. A. J. Fisk, and Mr. T. Wilcox. The hotel accommodations are bet­ter than ever, and the bathing facilities are enlarged and improved. As many as fifty guests have been seated at the table there within the past few days. Dr. Parberry is highly complimented for attentions and cour­tesies extended to invalids and others visiting the Springs.

—Mr. A. H. Barrett, one of the editors and owners of the Mining Review, Butte, is in the city, and meets with a cordial welcome from many acquaintances.

—Mr. J. E. Kanouse, who was in the city to-day from Centreville, informs us that the bridge over the slough near Indian creek fer­ry, which was recently destroyed by fire, has been replaced and is now in good working order. The fire is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary.

to the South to “consider what Lee and Jack- son would do were they alive. Thes$ are the same principles for which they fought for four years.” The Northern Democratic press is not so enthusiastic over the victory as the figures ought to make it. Perhaps they real­ize that the size of the majority jars unplea­santly when uttered in the same breath with Hancock’s shout for a free ballot, a full vote and a fair count.

'-Union City (111.) Mews : Hon. J. G. El- wood, ex-Mayor of Joliet, and a leading Democrat of that city, comes out for Garfield and Arthur. Joseph Braum, a prominent German Democrat of the same city, also re­nounces the Democratic party. John Miller, an old citizen of Stone City, land well known in insurance circles and Masonic work, and also a Democrat, drops the party, which he says “ the countiy has no use for,” and goes for Garfield. Other names by the score could also be mentioned of Will county gentlemen who this year give Democracy the “shake.” Let them come. There is room for all.

Im p o rtan t M ining Transaction».

Mr. W. C. Child purchased to-day a large interest in the well known Gloster mine, Sil­ver Creek district. By this transaction all conflicting interests are combined and merged into one managemant, and the property here­after will be worked to the full extent of its merits. A forty-stamp mill will be erected at once, during the construction of which the present ten-stamp mill will be used to treat the ores.

Mr. Child informs us that the consolidation of the two Gregorios, Jefferson district, has been effected, and reduction works of large capacity will be erected without delay.

Scalded.

R ed R ook , August 15, 1880.To the Editor of the Herald:

Mrs. Latham, wife of the proprietor of the variety theatre here, died at 2 a. m., from the effects of child-birth. She leaves three little children.

It is reported that Charles Adams, the act­or, was heavily fined in the Justice’s court for assaulting and abusing his wife.

Rumor has it that Miss R. Lingo is soon to be married to Charles Hawkes, the proprietor of the Valley House.

Nothing is known definitely when the ter­minus will be moved or exactly where it is to go, though the question is much discussed and the event is not very distant.

FROM SOI TH AFRICA.

W hat a M ontana Rover W rites from D istan t Land.

A little boy, aged three years, son of Henry Haupt, proprietor of the Hot Springs, while out playirg a few days ago, fell into one of the springs near the bath houses, and before he could be rescued, was so badly scalded that the skin on his legs pealed off in spots while the clothes were being removed from him. The little fellow is badly injured, but bears up under his sufferings bravely, and will probably recover. He is considered out of danger.

Heavy Show er a t Rndersbnrff.

Mr. David Blacker, whom we met in the city to-day, reports a heavy rainfall at Ra­dersburg on Saturday night. The rain pour­ed down in torrents for two hours or more, al. most flooding the entire Crow creek country. Mr. Wm. Quinn’s ditches were literally swamped and broken in many places. The damage to these ditches, Mr. Blacker thinks, is considerable.

F ort Shaw Item s.

Our Fort Shaw correspondent sends the following items under date of the 13th :

Company H, 18th Infantry, starts to-mor­row morning for the Coal Banks, and Com­pany G, of the 3d, leaves Monday for the site of the new post on the Muscleshell. Surgeon Cofforth accompanies the latter force, which goes to assist in putting up tem­porary shelter for troops this winter.

Gen. Brooke and a party of officers and their wives will start in a few days for a tour through the National Park.

Lieut. John W. Hannay will go on sick leave for one year.

Surgeon Greenleaf and family will soon start for the East on a year’s leave, Dr. New ­man taking his place in the meantime

T elegraph Pole« Wonted.

The military telegraph line between Hel­ena and Bozeman is to be rebuilt, and Lieut. Grimes, Superintendent, whose address is Bismarck, Dakota, invites prososals, until September 1st, for furnishing 2,750 poles, 22 feet long and 4 inches in diameter at top. Bids can be sent by mail or telegraph. The poles required must be of sound native tim­ber,(cottonwood excepted) reasonably straight and round, bark peeled off and knots cut close Price per pole must include delivery, in such

A letter just received by Ross Deegan lo­cates our former townsman, Mr. C. K. Riale, at Haklimas, Cape Colony, South Africa. Mr. Riale has roved over many parts of that distant country. He was recently up in the Orange Free State among the Dutch Boers, and from thence went back to Natal and Cape Town. At the latter place, in May, he met Wm. Lutz, a former Montanian, who had visited the gold fields in the Transvaal and the diamond fields, but found nothing to suit his fancy. Lutz subsequently went to pros­pect for new gold fields near Massel Bay, since which time he has been lost sight of. Mr. Riale describes the country he is in and where he intends to stop for the year, as the Great Namarqua Land. It is on the west coast of South Africa, north of the Orange river. It is principally inhabited by Hotten­tots and Bushmen. It is a very dry region, noted at one time particularly for its variety and plenitude of game. The ostrich still abounds, domesticated, and is a source of great profit. The ostrich feather product is stated to average $100 to the bird annually* The birds, once tamed, are as meek as chickens. They are herded in the same as way cattle. Ostrich farming in the colony, re­marks Mr. R., as fast superceding all other industries. Men that a few years ago were penniless, have now incomes of from $50,- 000 to $100,000 a year. “Now don’t get ex­cited and run away from Montana for such a country as this, for I can’t say that I am stuck after it,” is the caution of Mr. Riale, who states his intention to get back to his na­tive heath another year. His purpose is to bring along with him selected specimens of the ostrich species, believing he can safely transplant these birds to the southern part of the United States and successfully open out a feather farm.

D ischarge of George W. Fox.

At the March term, 1880, a petition for a writ of habeas corpus was filed by George W, Fox. On the hearing the writ was denied. An appeal was taken to the Supreme Court, and that Court to-day unanimously agreed to his discharge, and granted the prayer of his petition, directing him to go hence withoutday. | m ______

McCormick vs. H abb« 11 et al.

In the case of John McCormick vs. J. B. Hubbell, et al., reported in the Supreme Court proceedings yesterday, a mistake occurred. Instead of the case being continued by con­sent, it was continued on motion and affidavit of the appellants, and against the protest of

—A careful estimate of the gold product of New Mexico from 1848 to 1876 gives a grand total of $6,075,000. Since 1876 the yield has been considerably increased.

—Chauncey Barbour former editor of the Missoulian, it is reported, will be an inde- j pendent candidate for County Treasurer and ex-officio supt. of common schools of Missou­la county.

—It seems probable that the Dakota ex­tension of the Chicago & Northwestern Railway will reach the Black Hills before the Union Pacific extension thither is com­menced. It is already built to a point sev­eral miles west of James river.

—The dividends paid by mines in the Uni­ted States for the half year ending July 1, 1880, aggregate, according to the Mining Record, $6,328,615. The largest dividend is that of the Calumet and Hecla Copper Company, of Michigan, $1,500,000.

—It is reported from Reno, Nevada, that the farmers in that section are thoroughly alarmed at the ravages made by the grass­hoppers. Already they have done consider­able damage to the growing grain, and the warm weather is hatching them in myriads.

—Mr. Howell Harris, of Choteau, who went to the States a few months ago for the purpose of purchasing a band of thorough­bred mares, returned on the steamer Red Cloud with thirty head of fine animals. The stock is intended for his ranch on High wood, within 18 miles of Benton.

—Mr. L. T. Merry, for several years past the Herald correspondent at Fort Shaw, leaves shortly for a visit to friends in the States, going by way of the Missouri. Mr. Merry has contributed many interesting letters to our columns, and has kept Northern Mon­tana well written up. He expects to return to the Territory not later than next spring. We wish him a safe journey and pleasant visit.

—For some time past it baa been perceived by the mining men of this vicinity that the great want of Batte was two or three addi­tional smelters to furnish a good steady local market for the smelting ore which is becom­ing more and more abundant as the develop­ment of our mines gains depth, and for which, according to general opinion, the prices now offered are altogether too low. This want, we are pleased to say, is in a fair way of being supplied. It is understood that the result o f the recent visit to Butte of Messrs. Migeon and Farrell will be a smelter to work the ores of Parrott lode claims, of which those gentlemen are joint proprietors

The Madisonian says : “A correspondent informs us of the death by suicide of Thomas Cronin, which occurred at Blackfoot, on the Utah & Northern Railway, on the 4th inst Cronin is the man who was sentenced at the September, 1877, term of court in this city, to one year’s imprisonment on the charge of stealing a check for $979 from L. M. Black & Co., at Tongue river cantonment. He was a pretty hard case, and after serving his time out became associated with a lot of kindred spirits, who were the recipients of 3-7-77 fa­vors in Helena some time ago, and with two others, received orders to “git up and g i t ” He was next heard of at Jefferson City, where some of the mystic figure boys interviewed him with a black-snake whip. Since then he has been operating as a monte sharp on the Utah & Northern, until he turned up in partnership with one Pryor, at Blackfoot, keeping a grocery. It seems that his partner had detected Cronin in improper relations with Pryor femme, and administered a severe castigation with a horse-whip upon the dis­turber of domestic felicity. The humiliation of the whipping affected him so greatly that he went to a neighboring store and shot him­self in the abdomen, inflicting a wound from which he died in a few hours. He was, without doubt, a very bad man, and societywill be none the worse for his violent taking o f f . ”

I t is convenient for use, as it only re­quires to be diluted in hot water. I am glad to recom­mend it to all of the sheep men whose bands are troubled with the scab.
