Omaha to those points SIPS. The regu-
lar rate from Council Bluffs is $13.1O.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 24.-U. S. Com

BIRMINGHAM, Va, Nov. 22.-This
evening Robert Mayfeld and A. King,
colored men, were lowered into the stack
of a furnace in which the fire was sup
posed to be dead, to make some repairs.
The fumes overcame them, they dropped
upon the hot mass Of ore and coal below,
and their bodies were reduced to cinders.
LONDON, Nov. 24.-It has been Off
cially reported to the government that
widespread distress is feared in Ireland
this winter The districts most seriously
affected, through the want of employ
ment on farms and the failure of the po~
tato crop, are Sligo, Ballina, swinford,
and the greater portion of Galway.
There is much destitution in West Glare
and Connaught. Owing to the continu-
ously heavy demands upon Irishmen in
America to support the Land
League, there has been a considerable
decrease in remittances to the struggling
natives in Ireland. This has reduced
| many to the condition of being unable

THE BULLION BOOM AT BARKER
Over Eighty Thousand Dollars Worth
Turned Out by the Smclter in
Twenty Days.
Two Hundred Thousand Dollars worth
Of Ore on the Wright & Edwards
Dump.

Maybe you think Barker is not BOOM
ing Ed. Smith, who came in from the
camp yesterday for additional work cat
tie to take his train from Barker to Bill
ings (loaded with bullion), informs us
that the smelter, in the last rum few
weeks ago, turned out | ,204 bars OF high
grade bullion, which is valued at not
less than $4,000. This was but the work
of twenty days for the blast furnace, and
when the roasting capacity OF the works
is increased to twenty-five tons day, as
it should, be, the smelter can turn out
every month Of the year from 900 to
500, 900 in bullion.
At present the smelter IS buried in ore;
as they say. There are not less than
800 tons on the dump, in piles orroast-
ing on the outside and at the building,
all from the inexhaustible Wright q
Edwards. The mine is now SO nicely
opened up, and the ore in such abund
ance, that thirty or forty tons day can
be easily taken out with small force OF
men, but they are SO far ahead OF the
smelter that they are resting on their
oars as it were. It is not extravagant
to estimate the value Of the ore now
ready for the smelter at 100000, and
there is literally millions in sight.
Ed. Smith has contracted to deliver the
bullion now on hand at Billing, and he
will start as soon as he can get back to
the camp and load. He will load back
with 10000 pounds Of merchandise for
f. W. Reed & Co., and 10000 pounds of
grain, and expects to have 81 long and not
very pleasant trip. Next summer when
the works will be running at their full
capacity, the product will be brought to
Benton and shipped by river to the east,
and it will require no szs.an amount OF
transportation to perfornisshe work. The
outlook at Barker is certainly as cheer
full as could be wished, and it will not be
long until other mines besides the w. &
E. will produce large quantities Of ore
daily. There are number Of leads there
just as good if they were only developed.

Barker Lodge No. 10, a. Q. y. w.

Thursday evening November 22d Dep
uty Grand Master Workman J. w.
Kinsley organized Barker Lodge No. 10,
of the Ancient Order Of United Work
men, in the Barker District.
The following officers were unani
mously elected and installed:
P. M. W.-Prof. n. A. Foss.
M. W.-Seth w. Eddy.
Foreman-S. FL. Sutton.
Overseer-Daniel J. Graham.
Recorder-Henry E. Sturgeon.
Receiver-Michael Foley.
Financier-John P. McSweeny.
Guided. F. Riggs.
I. W.-O. r. P. w. Hanscombe.
0. W.-John l.. Crowley.
Med. Ex.-Dr. Daniel MI. Mckay.
Trustees-N. A. Foss, VIM. Mcqueen
and DR.. D. M. Mckay.
A very commendable interest was
manifested in the new mining district in
the formation of the lodge, and the pros
poets are that Barker No. 10 will prove
strong rival of Montana No. 8 for the
lead in northern Montana.
Another meeting of thelodge was held
on Friday evening, and further additions
made to their roll.
The total list of members at the time
Mr.. Kinsley left the district was VIM.
Mcqueen, Prof. n. A. Foss, Seth w.
Eddy, 0. A. P. w. Hanscombe, John
L. Crowley, S. II. Sutton, Michael Fo-
ley, D. J. Graham, John p. McSWeeny,
A. J. Hamilton, S. w. Ault, D. F. Riggs,
DR.. D. M. Mckay, Henry E. Sturgeon,
Edward L. Murphy, Theodore J. Rouse,
Alexander Hamilton and VIM. Gum.
Total, Is members.
Mr.. Kinsley was SO fayorably impress
ed with Barker that he says it is not
improbable that he will return at an
early day and make some investments
in the camp. He thinks in time it will
not be second to any in the territory
and Mr.. 4. has been in mining camps
before.

A Joking Belle.

One of the bellies of Deer Lodge is given
to practical joking. The following ac-
count of her latest effort in that direct
ion is from the NeaO North Vest:
"Wud yes be wantin' to hoire house
kaper, nuns? ?" was the question put in
broad brogue by buxom looking mid
die aged woman last Friday morning to
dozen or two up town ladies, as they
answered vigorous rap at the door, A
negative answer was frequently the
signal for a wordy insistance for em-
ployment that half frightened to death
the good DANES of our quiet village, who
talked over the back fences five min
utes after and concluded 1T was not
work she was wanting, but just chance
to get into our homes and steal. / never
saw the likes Of her for impudence." It
was not until she had two hours fun
and had succeeded in having all the
doors up town bolted to prevent her re-
turn, that the belle Of the Village
gave up the best masquerade ever perpe-
trated in Deer Lodge, and sat down to
practice her music lesson.

Valuable Colts Killed.

David Auchard, of Dearborn, writes
from ST. Paul, Mimi, that on the 18th
inst. the train on which he was travelling
west on the Chicago, ST. Paul, Minneap-
oils & Omaha railroad, with three car
loads of Hambletonian colts, ran into q
wreck. He says: 1.-THE two-year-old
colts were in the car next to the engine.
The tender was driven half way through
this car, killing tWenty-four out of the
twenty-five colts in the car. The second
car contained twenty-seven head of
yearlings. These were saved, as Were
also twenty head Of three-year-oids in
the third car. [ had seventy-two head
altogether -sixty-eight mares and four
stations all fine blooded. My loss will
amount to $1,000, some of which I will
get back. I will start on the homeward
trip as soon as possible"

Fort Macleod.

AS much interest is being evinced IN
the section of country Of which the
town of Macleod is the center and dis
tributng point, it would no doubt inter-
est some of our Eastern readers to know
something of its situation, means of
reaching it, etc. Fort Macleod then, is
at present rather irregularly laid out
collection of log houses, more or less I'M
posing, according to the private or busi-
ness wants of the individual who may
own them. Situated on the banks Of
the Old Mans river, with cut-banks to
north and northeast, the approach from
the south is from the level prairie, and
Macleod can be seen for a number Of
miles before it is actually reached. 1t is
on an island caused by the river break
ing through new channel for itself
some years ago; what was formerly the
river being now slough, dry in most
places in the summer and autumn, but
swelling to no mean proportions in the
spring. This island is gradually being
washed out and undermined, and as each
succeeding springtime and consequent
high water returns, the betting is almost
even that the whole concern, Fort, town
and inhabitants, will form a stately pro-
cession in the watery high road to Win
nipeg. The Government is beginning
to realize the Importance Of shifting the
police barracks from this shaky founda-
ton to some place where men going out
constantly on duty do not have to swim
| themselves and horses both off and on.
| Parts of two townships are now being
surveyed, and on the completion OF this
work, new fort ond townsite will, no
doubt, at once be selected by the Govern
ment. It is proposed to build the new
fort of brick, and good part of the new
town will be Of the same. material, and
one of the most f1ourishing towns in the
North West will rapidly grow up. The
mistake in not moving has been delayed
too long all ready, and we hope and trust
as we believe, that the move will be
made next spring.-Gazettc.

that she is still with her husband, living
on ranch in the Yellowstone valley,
below Miles City, and that she has been
blessed with an issue in the form OF q
bright looking boy baby, which she calls
Little Calamity, as she has been unable
to find as name nice enough for him.
Calamity assured our informant that she
had been thoroughly regenerated, and
that during the balance of her days she
intended to live quiet, domestic, gran
ger life, only visiting town occasionally
to hear the band play. She allowed that
there was nothing in gypsieing around
on the frontier; that she had become
tired of it, and that there was only solid
comfort in training up little calamities
for the presidency Of the United States.
At this point she raised her little bundle
of humanity to her face, and between
kisses exclaimed:
"Muzzie's yittle snoozey darling knows
that much, SO he does"
Everybody in the Hills, as everybody
knows Calamity, will be pleased to learn
of her new life, and to know that she
enjoys Deodauood Pioneer.

A CACHE iii THE MOUNTAINS.
Ten Years OF Unsuccessful Search
For 1t.
A Recent Discovery Which May Load to
Better Results.

Every one has heard Of the persistent
but fruitless search for the treasure sup
posed to have been hidden somewhere
by Captain Kidd, the noted pirate and
outlaw, but that Il like search, with
probably less zeal, has been made in an
adjoining county is o fact doubtless
known to but few of our readers.
The story runs that in the palmy days
of road agents in Montana some MEM
bers Of the craft took refuge with their
ill-gotten gains in the mountains at the
head of the south fork Of Sun river,
where they cached their wealth, built
them cabin, and held forth there in
security for a long time. This much OF
the tale, at least, is generally believed
by the people Of Sun river, and we have
no doubt many think that fabulous sums
were hidden away there which have not
yet been uneaTthed.
Some two Or three years ago q man
and a woman, strangers, appeared on
the scene, and spent several weeks in
the mountains searching for something,
and the manner of their procedure nat
urally led to the belief that they were
friends of the highWaymen and were
seeking out the cache, in which purpose
it seems they were not successful, al
though the hunt was protracted one.
The subject was given renewed in-
terest few weeks ago by a discovery
made by some half breeds who were ex-
ploring the region in question. They
found cabin, evidently built number
of years ago, and after efecting an en-
trance were further astonished by the
sight of human skeleton on the ground
before them! They had heard the re-
ports about hidden treasure, and at once
went to work industriously to seek for
| it, but as usual without success. When
they returned to the valley and reported
| the stfindn scme interest was excited and
the old topic came up for discussion
again, when our reporter gotta brief and
perhaps very imperfect history OF the
| case. Whether Or not there has been
| any further search this fall we do not
know, but it would be difficult to con-
vince some people that there is not
| treasure box hidden somewhere near the
source of the south fork of Sun river.

A. send-Of for Montana.

In the NeW Vest, Robert Strahorn, Of
the Union Pacific, gives Montana the
following send-off: "Montana's record
for 1882 will be superb one. With an
increase of some $50 miles of railroad,
opening to occupation the richest min
eral, pastoral, forest and agricultural
lands of the territory, with an increase
during the year of Is, 900 permanent res
idents, and a thorough peace established
among the red men, Montana has in
twelve months received that for which
she has vainly shrugged for nearly twen-
ty years. This year the giant territory
produces nearly $S, 900, 900 worth of bull
lion, markets $4,000 head of cattle and
8, 700. 900 pounds of wool. The harvests
have been abundant. and prices better
than for years Some $4,000 acres have
been added to the cultivated area. In
portant new mineral fields have been
discovered, and about 100000 head OF
cattle and about 100000 head Of sheep
have been put upon the vast stock rang
es in addition to the regular increase to
herds formerly there. The assessed
valuation Of the territory has increased
about thirty per cent, and such boom
in the building Of cities and improve
ment Of village property was never
known. a geologist has predicted that
Montana will some day be the greatest
coal producing state in the union. She
certainly will lead every state, Texas
alone excepted, in the production ot
| beef, mutton and wool, and many say OF
gold and silver. The field for new cap:
ital, new muscle, and new enterprise, is
| almost boundless. Emigration to such
country is success in life-the right te
emigrate there is a valuable privilege.

latter. For the past five years the peo-
pie of the valley failed to take the inter
est they should in this establishment,
and lately have not grown one-tenth
enough of grain to keep it running. But
we understand the farmers next season
will SOW wheat more extensively they
can raise immense crops of this grain),
and thereafter the mill will do a big bu-
siness. There is no possible reason why
that section Of country should not be
supplied with home flour, with a great
deal to spare for the outside market.
Sun River flour ought to be on sale in
Benton, and we trust will be soon. We
would consider like institution at this
place bonanza.
S. nj. Corson is the Village black
smith, ~ and has quite an extensive shop.
The surroundings indicate that he is
doing big business.
The Largent house is now under the
management of Mr.. James Glib, a
pleasant gentleman and an excellent
landlord. When this house was built a
few years ago by the Largent boys, it
was thought to be larger than the Cross
ing would ever require, and the average
citizen set the investment down as a
very poor one for such shrewd gentle
men to make. However, it is now "full
to overfowing" every night, and an ad-
dition next season will be absolutely nec-
essary.
If the Helena & Benton railroad when
everit is built passes through Sun River
Crossing and we believe it will, that
town will have quite a boom and will
become much greater trade center than
at present. There will be a good town
between the capital and the river me-
tropolis, and there is but little doubt that
it will be Sun River. By that time, too,
there will be Encouragement Of county
boundaries, and George Steel will be
the president Of the board Of commits
sioners of Dearborn county, post of
honor he would rather fill than be dele
gate to congress.
