The evening Herdld's account ofthe base
hall match says that an immense number of
people gathered at the base ball grounds to
witness the much-talked- of contest between
the Helena and Butte mines. The particular
FEATURES ofthe a sion were the number of
carriages and ladies present and the en,husi-
asm manifested OH every side. Every seal
Was occupied and many were obliged to
stand. There was some little discussion in
resa,dto the umpire selected, as he had been
oettlng, but this had been done by him be-
lore he had been selected umpire, the matter
being finally adjusted satisfactorily, and by
W. Z. Morris taking his place. The game be-
gan about half-past Two o'clock. 1t was
clearly to be seen, even at the earliest stages
OF the match, that it was to be one severely
iouSht Tor on both sides. 1t was evident, too.
that the players possessed ability of a high Or
der and were in fine practice. The Butte
players were very good indeed and particu-
iarly strong in their pitcher, Mofiatt. At first
they manifested a little nervousness and made
several errors, which soon lessened and gave
way to fine playing. The Helena boys did
not start of as was expected but then
praying was very strong al times
The first innings were excellent
ard fully equal to any professional playing
we have seen. The highest praise is due the
Silver City Nine. Their playing could not
nave been neater or better. They proved
that they had been in constant practice. At
$50 the Buttes had the advantage. The ex-
element at this stage was intense. The play
ers were greeted with rounds of loud cheer
ing. Every one seemed TO think that the
Butte Nine would win the contest, and they
Immediately rose in the popular feeling.
The betting had up to this point been exceed
insly lively and altogether in favor of the
Helena club, but here quite a change set III
and the betters did not seem to be in demand
or in particularly good spirits. As we go to
press the universal opinion is that the game
is in the hands of the Buttes. There were
so many errors all round tina this feeling
may be premature. The Helena Nine msy
yet rally and come off victorious, as they are
splendid players. As we leave The grounds
the score is to 4 in favor of the Buttes at
the end of the third innings.

PRESBYTERIAN PRESBYTERY.
Report Ct the Work at
the Late Meeting.

As some Of the proceedings of the Presby-
terry of Montana lately convened in Bozeman,
VIII be of interest to our readers, we have OBJ
taIned and now present a condensed account.
There were present six of the ministers
of the Presbytery and but two eld-
ers. One minister belonging to the Presby-
terry is now in Indiana and a few months
since one was dismissed to unite with the
Presbytery of Monmouth in New Jersey. A
committee was appointed to procure a minis
ter to succeed Rev. l.. B. Crittenden in the
Hamilton church-Mr. G.. not being able on
account of failing health to attend to the
growing work. Of the five men promised to
come to Montana this summer only one has
arrived: Three are expected daily. 1t is as
yet a matter of doubt if the other one will
come.
With regard to the Sunday School work the
Presbytery recommended to the Sun
day schools connected with the Pres
byterian Church in Montana the publications
of the Board of Publication of the Presbyte-
rian Church and advised the Sunday Schools
to use them. The sessions of the churches
were instructed to see that the shortest cate
chism be taught in the Sunday schools. A
resolution was passed endorsing the work of
the American Bible Society in Montana. 1t
was recommended to the churches that when
they become able to pay half the salary of
their minister they call a pastor. Reports
were made from all the churches which
showed a healthy and encouraging growth in
all places where churches had been organized
in Montana. The Presbytery appointed the
next stated meeting to be held in Helena.

We are indebted to our occasional cores
pondent at Stevensyilie for notes about the
quartz districts of Missoula county. In the
Sweat House district the Bitter Root
Prince lode showed a three and a half foot
vein OF ore that assays 81 ounces in silver per
ton. The Mountain Chief lode has three
parallel veins, withthe ore a~ssaying about $26
III gold and III ounces In silver to the ton. The
Victor lode produces a fine quality of ore,
Mr.. Stevens, of Butte, is opening the Pleas
ant View, 1t looks we'll. The highest ASSAY
ever obtained from the ore of this district
came from ore out of this lode. 1t went over
LOCO ounces in silver to the ton. The streak of
this rich ore IS thin. In the district the Badger
d Crow, Smithsonian, and Elizabeth lodes
look decidedly promising.
The Lo Lo Fork district is being prospected
theoretically, and the Willow Creek district
is receiving more than ordinary attention. In
both districts excellent quartz has been
found. The North P acifc lode and a num-
Der OF others in the Lo Lo district look like
undeveloped bonanzas, that are only awaiting
opening " '"rn IneAl INTO VallaDie proper

In Stevensville matters are looming up.
The new Methodist Church is nearly COM
pleted. Rev. T.. Flowers new residence is

town is improving and old residents are be-
ginning to realize the force of sticking and

BOILER
An Engineer Killed and a Teamster
g. Badly Injured.

About noon yesterday the news reached
the city that the boiler of one of Thompso MS
saw mills, located about four miles from the
Hump and about sixteen miles from Butte
had exploded. The accident occurred be-
tween 7 and s O'Clock yesterday, and result.
ed fatally to one man and dangerously, if not
fatally, injured another. The particulars of
the explosion as we have been able to gather
them from an eyewitness are about these A
man who was standing near the boiler, a few
minutes before it blew up, noticed that the
register showed the boiler was under a pres
sure of 100 pounds, and he called the atten--
ton of the engineer to the fact. The enuir-
eer replied that the boiler was safe with 12O
pounds pressure to The inch. The pressure
on the boiler rapidly rose to 1ls pounds, when
the man left and started away from the mill
on horseback. When he got away from the
mill a couple of hundred yards a fearful ex-
plosion followed. The boiler parted near
the middle, one section was thrown a distance
Of six and the other piece about eight rods.
The engineer, who was known by the name
OF W. e. Highous, was instantly killed. He
had not been long employed at the mill and
little is known about him. Stewart Cham
pion, a teamster, was knocked down and rem
dered insensible. DR.. Thompson, of this
city, was called to render assistance to Cham
pion. DR.. Thompson returned from the scene
OF the explosion last evening and from him
we learn that he found Champion in an un-
conscious condition. He received a severe
confusion on the left side of the head, which
produced laceration of the tissues, and his
face was badly scalded. His left hip bone is
fractured and when the Doctor left him he
was in the SAM unconscious condition in
which he found him. The Doctor says the in
juries are severe but may not prove fatal.
Champion is from Virginia City, where his
wife lesides. The cause of the explosion is
to filling the boiler with cold water
at a time when the water had been permitted
to run down low, which generated steam gas.
The mill is a wreck.
