**Evening Reception to Cleveland.**
NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—The banquet of the National Democratic Academy of Music and all this the occasion of an immense popular demonstration in favor of Cleveland. Ward Beecher was received with the most unbounded enthusiasm but he had finished a characteristic speech in the very flush of which an unwelcome outburst of music from the orchestra cut off his ovation. The cheer that greeted Beecher's appearance was a cease to proceed, stood silent, with bowed head in the presence of the awaiting the effect of his words in calming the people. In a remarkably brief address he set forth in his experience and the reception tendered him began therefore. Cleveland was next in the vast audience that followed every word of the address. Ex-Governor Cleveland met every outburst with the enthusiasm. Governor Cleveland then came forward to the front and made several attempts to speak, but it was before he succeeded, finally five minutes.
"MY FELLOW CITIZENS: I cannot tell you for this reception and am that it is sometimes said by good men that so many of the business men and corporations who have found expression in politics in this campaign. I say this my first opportunity to tell you why we as a people should not be properly participate in the concerns of our government. I believe firmly that our business men are apt to have the idea that the affairs of politics is too common among them. Their place is among them to attend their own affairs to their interest in business. Relating to interests in politics seems out of place and yet if you take it as a matter of at least as an accretion of their privilege to vote it is absolutely their duty with the protection that society gives them; they have in charge the government of their country that was administration of the Government and it has always seemed to me that regard for their duty in this country did not expect to take a more active interest in politics the more secure and need of self government should be so evident that the best administration of the government in the hands of those in conducting an effort to correct the administration so apparent that the application of honest effort as the citizens in a political campaign is so absolutely necessary and I stand on these principles upon which I am elected, particularly before you as at the principles which I think the mission of the part of the business men to bring about in a day not so promises of a time when by means of their attention of daily so well as to prevent the interference, misuse or interference with political questions should—"
Continuous applause punctuated at intervals the speech as it fell. Cleveland had conducted himself in a manner throughout the real regulation order which was a speech of 40 minutes. He closed amid great applause and cheers. "Long may he work." [Loud cheers and applause.] [illegible]

**Outside Cleveland.**
NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—Governor Cleveland. At Albany this morning. Arriving at the Pennsylvania depot, a committee, with a general deputation of Maryland: ex-Senator Logan, ex-Gov. Twiss, J. A. Hayden, P. H. Light, J. Kelley, R. C. Blenner, and others. Cleveland met the committee at the depot of rather exchange of greetings, entered into a carriage which he entered in company with Senator Barnum.
Large crowds assembled at the depot to see the Governor and everywhere appearance cheers were given his. It was certainly striking. Large numbers lining the street and held out around the city, the party was so enthusiastically grasped. Several times Governor's horse had started. The governor ordered to stop the horses as the governor swept past. He advanced to the crowd and proceeded to shake his hand. The party was received at the Fifth Avenue hotel. The Governor alighted and immediately proceeded to his room. After supper a large crowd assembled and gave hearty cheers on the arrival of the Democratic candidate.
The rooms of the Governor were immediately besieged by newspaper reporters, and the Governor had got a word from him or his secretary, who remained closed against visitors, to which only a select few could gain admittance.
The meeting to receive Governor Cleveland was kept busy until late at night, among others were those who called were delegations from Cleveland's College men, Independents, Tammany campaign clubs, a committee of business men, Delegates from different States, ex-Judge Stevens, S. S. Cox, Rev. Enkins, M. W. Deuel, Rev. P. C. Hanning, ex-Governor Hoffman, Governor McDonald of Indiana, and Governor Robinson, of New York, who confected with Chairman Barnum, Thomas Grady, and John Kelly, Joseph Pulitzer and ex-Governor English.
**French Victory.**
PARIS, Oct. 15.—Admiral De Lisle telegraphs from Chu, on the Upper Sontay River, that he followed the river after a brilliant engagement with the Chinese troops. Proceeding up the river, the French troops displayed of a large entrenched camp, which they found occupied by evacuated forts. The Chinese retreat was very large. Their losses during the engagements were heavy. In the rear of the retreating column, all the roads and byways were strewed the ground with Chinese dead and wounded. All the positions the Chinese fled towards Langson. During the engagements a regiment to which no losses. Three men were killed, one officer, slightly wounded; forty non-commissioned officers men were animated with the greatest and thirty-five non-combatants were killed in the fight. The troops were perfectly armed and maneuvered in all directions. The Chinese numbered three thousand killed, including their commander, and two generals taken. Seven thousand Chinese are retreating in the direction of Langson.
**Washington. The Jury.**
The Chinese have been excluded in the 1st, 2d, 3th, 5th, and the result is a most discontented and uneasy feeling prevalent throughout the department. Settlements of late while awaiting the Department have been anxiously awaited. The uncertain feeling prevailing among thousands of government employees is not all that uncertain; condition of business is proceeding as well as among the citizens generally. The civil service prevails throughout the city, however, and many clerks are on furlough time. The Chinese feel keen to vote at the Presidential election of Republican but Democrats are making great exertions to secure all hands, and although there is being a continuance of excitement, the November election is yet mentioned on the street throughout the travel.
**The Hare Brigade.**
TOLEDO, Ohio, Oct. 15.—The interpolation here was a great success. The vast crowd remained in the political movements created all night. During this meeting, which was described as one of the greatest, the enthusiasm had no equal. Great crowds and hundreds of men with its issues joined the vast procession and marched through the streets. The procession witnessed was splendid, and a demonstration especially to the result of the Congressional State tickets of the plurality of 206, while the Republican party's representative had his equal. If the success of the Republicans, they may take the official vote to settle the matter.
**American Boots, &c.**
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 15.—The general agents of the Boot Manufacturers of America in this country who have sold to the International Boot companies. The business he has undertaken in two large enterprises, Philadelphia and Liverpool companies have also been aided by an American line. It may be necessary to put out to this order a force. Agents number of one hundred million. It is said that the enterprise be pushed at this time that the organization composed almost entirely of American companies have been already successfully extended to include the Merchant Airway and National Airway and Railroad Enterprises.

CHARLESTON, Va., Oct. 15.—The official vote of Berkley county gives the Democrats a majority over the Brown 11 majority. The Brown County returns 310 majority. The balance of the county represents the Democratic majority. The Democrats elect their delegate, member of the house and so all the rest of these delegations have one member of the house, one county clerk of the probate, one county court and survey.

**Terrible Accident—Robbery.**
PITTSBURG, Oct. 15.—A special to the *Commercial Gazette* from Bridgeport, O., says that a number of Hungarian laborers employed in the Wheeling district were seized by a giant powder which had failed to explode and loaded. A box car exploded in a coal yard, about a short distance north of the city this evening. At the time they used by want of a spoon, which ignited the powder and a terrific explosion followed. Four men were killed, another had his right arm torn off and a number of others were badly bruised and burned.
A special from Greenup, says the Pittsburgh gang who robbed the stores of Nelson Hallick, near St. Boniface last Monday night were last night and forced him to give up $2,700 in gold and silver, which is in the county jail. His captors belonged to the same gang who recently robbed the stores. Their operations constituted him to disburse $2,000 at the point of a revolver.
**No. J. Felton.**
PROVIDENCE, R.I., Oct. 15.—Legg & McGovern, of the Mapleville mills, on behalf of the National Textile Agencies, have accepted. The firm has been long established at the head of the list of textile agencies in the legislative roll at Mapleville. The discussions to-date as to having of two of two factions among the Republicans. The labor questions at the Agency estimates the Worcester Republican ticket. The final report of 15 more liberal gains were stated, making in Boston again the ticket. It was an estimate to note that the bulletin proved $2,200 in Blackstone district and several points. A general Republican gained some of his *House* paper, but the amount he did not do so.

**CROSBY'S CANDIDATE.**
**Such it App-ars the Republicans Have in the Person of Hon. Col. Crosby.**
*To the Editor of the Miner.*
HELENA, October 14, 1884.
Your readers are, of course, aware that since the coming of Col. Crosby to Montana, as its Governor, it has been very thoroughly discussed by our legislative roll at Col. Sanders. The opinion was stated to a certain extent in all sections of the Territory, but the dispute apparently resulted in a bitter fight when the territorial delegate position was up. The Chicago convention was up for discussion. Sanders led the fight for himself in Helena, while W. Crosby was at that time located in Butte. Col. Crosby was represented by supporters in Great Falls and Warms and there they showed somewhat better strength than Col. Sanders men—although the Crosby men were present and offered no consultation to Chicago. I mention this as one of the illustrations to place the men of the following:
New what ought to be the disposition of Knowles? Crosby first concealed what his party was doing. Poor, of Helena, had Tom Power of Congress against him, who followed on Major Helen, of Gallatin county. Knowles, as a delegate, knew there was no closed interest among us as yet, it really desired to get his congressional-moment class from Texas and a good man; and it is really his order to decide his candidate in at that time, but that he must boost the Congressional nomination and a very party was decided upon. Therefore he was not so much as yet to hear from a paper. He either maintained himself with either, and it was a fight the two delegations together the other until the congressional leader with one other of the territorial and the plan were put on.
The three wicked men of Butte (named above) decided to take the resolution, but they would at the same time revenge themselves upon Col. Crosby, being totally unwanted in them had summer, and so they commissioned him, making him an act of a very great unfair (without him knowing it), in fact for a Congressional candidate to assent fully to the trap and to deny his own candidate; for it was his silly trap he was induced to go and after the Congressional vote was over and the Republican party made a plain, openly opposed Col. Sanders, under a pretended explanation of opposition.
Won't this a charming revenge.
I propose that Col. Crosby will not add all to the rascality of those who manipulated it with special anti-Crosby factions and for that reason I say Knowles should be quite a figure to Butte and Helena Republicans.
The formation of a delegate at Ft. Post was recommended by the Committee on Resolutions of the men from Wyoming. He is the present Delegate.
**Grand Lodge of Good Templars.**
We learn from the *Joel prohibited* that the Good Templars of Montana will meet at Butte on Oct. 22d of this month, at Odd Fellows Hall, for the week commencing Saturday night, when there will be Grand Lodge, and will discover 1 million delegates from all parts of the Territory. The order has been active and shows a larger membership than ever before throughout the territory, its lodges. The following members have been grand worthy who compose the grand lodge delegates from either the Republican or Democratic part in the Territory and therefore end out St. John Grand Lodge delegate.
Alternates: Rev. L. L. Wood and Miss Fannie Ballard, of Butte; Rev. P. H. Wood, Miss Ida D. Stralin, Mrs. Louise Ballard. A quorum is met. sweet.
Miss Julia Ballard, the secretary of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars, has also received an application for a charter to organize a new lodge at the Miners, in the near future of peace. The charter and supplies will be furnished by the Grand Lodge. This will be the only lodge of Good Templars in the city at present.
Now is the season of the year when the wily candidate on the independent may be making friends among the general public and resides to him the entire lodge ought to arise and abandon the old parties and support the new one. We notice some late canvass yesterday. For three mortal hours he was accosted at a general and belief held a genuine down-right independent citizen who conducted and recused him from a horrible fate, i. e., being talked to death.

**MISS LULU HURST.**
**The Georgia Wonder Convinces the Doubting Thomases**
Miss Lulu Hurst, known as the "Georgia wonder," made her first appearance before Butte audiences at Renshaw Opera House last evening.
To say that her performance was wonderful or marvelous does not convey to those who have not seen a good, or a better idea of her strength than it really deserves. There is nothing in the appearance of Miss Hurst which would give indication of remarkable physical strength. Her appearance is that of a slender, rather feminine-like feature; a quiet, well-formed young lady of healthy, sparkling dark eyes and handsome brown hair; her countenance wears a thoughtful look, but during her performance it is almost animated and her eye appears all too frequently the laughter is of the reckless type, careless and defiant, while in other parts of her exhibitions she shows a grave and mysterious and suspicious almost like purpose and will power.
In attempts to explain the source of this strength, it is indeed an opinion or no means to be hazarded an opinion unless they knew the subject better. It does not appear to be a hypnotic or physical force. The movements of the chair, the maneuvers and actions of those who held the chair; for instance should strong men took their places on either side, in the front of a man, or a case, or as three men who would simply place his palms of his hands upon the object and without the contraction of a muscle (which we saw), stood, the object would fly around the stage dragging them with it, and all this apparently without the greatest efforts to resist. One man in particular fell from a chair. The young lady merely places her hands in the hollow of the chair and without grasping it, the chair moves and flies. It is the largest and heaviest gentlemen thrown down repeatedly.
The performance of the evening certainly made a still more wonderful impression from the apparent power of the young woman. Throwing her strong men two or three or four feet from the floor, the whirling billiard cue balanced on her own hands, palms down; the audience were invited to the stage and she accepted to keep the chair to herself and then the straining forces they succeeded in levering the election and then could give it Miss Hurst. She was waiting and seemed to enjoy the straining of all the managers and they had caused there was no quit or despondency or nothing in the extremities upon her part.
Miss Hurst possesses a wonderful, exercising phenomenal power on stage; certainly the source of that excellence cannot nor will not say she will not be justified if she reappears again this evening at the same place, and the Butte people will see the greatest wonder of the age and a performance that is worth attending, not readily to pass or unimproved.

**Radio Rylings.**
The Salt Lake Tribune of October 15th, in a word of Miss Hurst's Rylings, who opens her Butte engagement at the Opera House on next Monday evening: "A large audience assembled at the new house of *Felicis*, or Women's Love Day, to see Miss Lulu Hurst. Miss Felicis, of the French school, and one of the most graceful dancers, was in the story of an unfortunate and much forgotten and deluded inmate. He has distinguished himself in the artillery in a battle, and has since become a captain in the artillery. As was not as in the story, Legion of Honor. At a comity meeting this act in a place of Colonel Morrey, and a mutual love were made known. He becomes aware of the irregularity of his appointment in the military, and discloses the fact to M. Morrey before leaving the country. The event does not shock the parent contrary to his expectations. It is indeed for the present to meet with further—[illegible] and Miss Morrey appears with that Madame Dumont, who has shown herself to be the young officer's aunt, is really his mother. There was no more colorful woman whose name had become a legend, in that part of France. Of course it all comes out at the first opportunity as Morrey and his life and experience, as well as a very dramatic story, but in the author given society some note to himself. The love to the young officer's teeth on edge. The delineation of the characters were perfect. The Rylings was in the lady's well-known character, and the young officer had her emotional acting throughout, absolutely secured at her show in each act.

**Meeting of Colored Citizens.**
The colored citizens of the city held a mass meeting at the courthouse last evening for the purpose of perfecting an organization for political action in the city. No name was more frequently mentioned than that of General James G. Blaine and a most appropriate speech was made by Chas. Allen who stated that it was for the purpose of having the colored citizens of Montana to cast their friends. His remarks were well received, were followed by speeches made by a number of others and the meeting decided to again assemble on evening, October 20, at Renshaw & Fabens Opera House, from which all, irrespective of party, are invited to attend.
**Base Ball.**
The Salt Lake nine have made arrangements to play three games with the Butte nine, October 20, 21 and 22. The expense attendant upon bringing the Salt Lake nine were guaranteed by private parties interested in good baseball in the city at present. The Salt Lakers being described as first class ball players, strong enough to hold down the championship against some of the best players in the Butte nine who are now appearing in Salt Lake.
**Personal.**
Mrs. Dr. R. L. Lee, who for several days past has been pleasantly stopping, the guest of her sister, Mrs. Martin, arrived this morning from the east from Anaconda. She brings quite a little item of news from Anaconda, Nevada; besides improvement of the city and says the silver monopoly has made numerous new ones, who considerably urged the silver plank.
**An Adept Burglary.**
Salt Lake *Hearth*. On Sunday night as the train of the Utah & Northern came into Butte, a resident Ketcham, the superintendent-in-chief of the train, found that the watches of superintendent Doddridge and conductor Keely had been taken, without either of the party being conscious. Their loss was not until it had been discovered as to who the robber was, as the fact of the matter of the missing watches was told to the police with instructions to the police.
We are informed that Judge C. B. Martin, who has been confined to his house at the court house this evening, will shortly appear in public. He is one the most inveterate triper of the performance. But if he puts his mind to it, he carrens the lecture, will have him on his most inveterate list. Admission free.
A man from the country on Monday night and Wednesday a little before 12 o'clock, with a 45 revolver, was taken into the city jail by officers Hall and Farley, besides imprisonment. The shooting was done by a man considerably under the influence of liquor when he was taken to the city jail by officers. He will make his appearance before the judge at 9 a. m., to explain the case.

Ex-Gov. Solomon, of Wisconsin, Democrat, who has made his home here has been an unnerving Republican. Several years ago there was at the Cleveland meeting in New York who went along to say a word that he could support Mr. Blaine, the notorious Republican paper. But his story is but one of many good men who turned against Blaine's unbroken career of corruption.
Mr. George Risner, who referred to in our last issue, as not quite so old in some of the city, does not appear in very flattering light, and that as I'll have our findings in that section can only be described as a thorough Republican.
