GIANT POWDER CAP EXPLOSION.
A Lads Hands Terribly Torn by One.
Mr.. w. B. Miller, who lives mile or two
below town, some years ago quarried stone
in the bluffs opposite his ranch, aud for
that purpose used giant powder. Having
some caps remaining he placed them In an
upright gun case 10 his dwelling, where
they remained until Monday last. On that
day Willie, his son. aged about eleven
years, took one of the caps out, and, as he
states it, "was knocking the white wad
out of 1.-THE percussion powder-when
1t exploded. lacerating and mangling his
hands seriously. On his left hand the
thumb had to be amputated at the first
Joint and the flesh on the end joints OF the
first second and third fingers was blown
off to the bone. On the right hand the
first and second fingers were ploughsd as II
by ball. Drs. Mitchell aud Ives have him
in charge and he is doing as well as posi-
BILE. Mr.. Miller feels badly about 1t aud says
we might do service by advising parents
to be more careful where they put explosive
compounds and percussion caps. But y
will not do any good. People will neglect
to be careful about such things until an ac-
cident occurs. Suppose. however, II you
have children, you look around the house
and see IL there are any explosives or poi
sons within their possible reach. Children
are prying and curious and mischievcus,
and such things are only safe under lock
and key.

An Oriental Amusement Out West.

James McTigue, who had been working
for VIM. Palmer, and who came to town on
the 4th and had National drunk. appears
to have prolonged 1t beyond the patriotic
limit and brought on state OF mind In
which several hundred Vigilantees were
afeer him and it become necessary for him
to swim the river several times and scoot
over the hills and through the willows to
evade them. On last Friday he turned mp
in the camp OF Dick McGuren and Steve
Cole on Freeze-out, they being engaged 10
hauling lumber from Blackfoot to Deer
Lodge for Tibbetts s Schwartz. Then he
proceeded to give them an Oriental enter
tainment by taking out his pocket knife
and nfiicting eight or ten stabs with one OF
the blades IN his breast. The bone some
what hindering final results in this direc-
direction, he then stuck one Of the little
blades in bis stomach, and, Withdrawing It,
opened larger one and twisted the blade
around in the cut previously made. de
says he cut in as far as he could shove the
blade, but the cut indicates differently, as
none of the intestines were cut. The
freighters finally got possession OF him and
closed the entertainment. A messenger
was sent for the Sheriff and physician,
aud Mr.. McAndrews and DIR. Ives went
out. He had lost considerable blood and
was pretty badly used up, but was ban
daged, sewsd and otherwise tackled to-
gether sufficiently to render bis removal to
the Hospital possible. He is still thele in
a fair way of physical recovery, but will
probably 10 sent to the Asylum for mental
repairs. He is about twenty-five or twenty
three years OF age.

witnessed In Butte was that of Mr.. D..
Mendelsohn. which took place on Thursday
last. Mr.. nj. was i'll but short time. hav.
ing stroke Of apoplexy, which caused his
death in an hour. Deceased was q good
citizen and business man, and his loss is
universally regretted.
Messrs. Sands & Boyce, with that enter
prise for which they are famous, have ad-
ded greatly to the appearance of Main
street. by suspending mammoth banner
about midway of the street, emblazoned
with The name and business of the firm.
The artist, MIR. o. Stenberg, is to be con-
graduated upon getting up such = marvel
in bis line.
Rain, rain, rain, rain and mud.
We of Butte are jubilant over the settled
fact that our city, for some time at least,
will be railroad terminus. Heal estate is
having its boom and corner lots are away
up in the pictures. We hope that every
one will be satisfied with a railroad-but,
with Thomas, we doubt it.
Parties of prospectors are leaving almost
daily for the Wood river country, from
which glowing reports reach US. Lots of
the boys have the fever but are unable to
get away at present. When their ships
come in an exodus is imminent.
The celebrated Original claim, which has
been in litigation for long time past, has
at last been incorporated, the question of
title having been satisfactorily settled. The
incorporators are the Clark Bros.-W. A,
J. K. and J. Rand six others. This is
gratifying intelligence, as development of
this immense property will at once begin
and another great bullion producing mine
be added to the resources Of Butte.
A new mining district, six miles square,
has been organized near Pilgrim gulcb, to
be known AZ Lost Child mining district.
Thos. Godfrey was elected recorder of the
same. Considerable prospecting has been
done in the district this season and much
excitement manifested over the result.
The stock of the Alice Mining Company
has arrived and been distributed. We'd
like to be the fortunate owner of few Of
those pictures-would take a rest and 60 q
fishing.
On the 18th inst. the members of the
Methodist Sunday School will have bas-
ket picnic in grove in Yankee Doodle
gulch. All are invited who would like to
participate in the festivities. Doubtless
the occasion W ill prove an enjoyable one.
On the 18th inst. the first number of the
Mining Revie,o, a paper devoted to the in
terests of Butte and its many mines, will
be issued. The staff is composed of able
and intelligent writers, and, while not en-
dsavoring to laud our city TO the skies, will
give facts which must convince the most
doubling concerning the bright future of
the Silver City. The paper will be pub
llshed monthly and will be for gratuitous
distribution. Messrs. Barrett & Warren,
the managers and editors, are to be oompli-
mented upon their pluck in entering the
newspaper field in such manner.
