MONTANA AT AMSTERDAM
How the Foreigners Are I'm
pressed With the Rich Speci-
mems From the Butte
Mines.

lu0 acknowledges luo IS-
ceipt of the London Mining Journal
of September 22d. 1t contains an
elaborate article on the exhibit at
Amsterdam of Utah, Idaho and
Montana ores, in the course of which
it says: Occupying a space of twenty
five square metres in the main GAL
lery of the principal building may be
seen over three tons of specimens of
minerals as choice as they are
varied from the great mining cen
tres of Utah, Montana and Idaho, in
charge of Nj. A. Zeehandslaar, the
Commissioner appointed to represent
these Territories. This admirably
displayed collection is quite unique,
and is admitted to be the best of its
kind ever exhibited. The prime OBJ
ject of this attractive diplay is not to
show the beauty of the ores, which
are found in such abundance IN the
localities named, as to give Europeans
some idea of the economical and
commercial value of the minerals.
The display is surrounded daily by
experts of almost all nationalities,
who have the benefit Of a carefully
prepared description in three lam
guages of each of the minerals, to-
gether with the assay, commercial
and marketable value. Another in
teresting feature of the exhibits men
toned is that the whole process of
working the ore is shown from its
raw state to the solid ingot. Some
of the specimens re so rich as to al
most take the form of nuggets, while
others, though dull in appearance,
are scarcely less valuable, and Gre
representative of some of the best
paying mines; a striking illustration
of this paradox being the Horn Silver
mine of Utah., which has paid in
dividends in fifteen months 800, COOL;
the Ontario with about l Loco, OOOl. ster
ling in 81 dividends; and the Cries.
cent, of Park City, paying in July
IL, OOOk. as a first dividend. Then for
Montana there is the PARROT, owned
by a private company, witha month
ly dividend of 6,0OOl., n Of the
finest mines in Butte, with 300, O0Ol.
ore in sight; the Lexington, owned
in Paris, declaring in July A. OON.
| dividends on six months working;
the Alice, with a gross product in
seven months Of 100000. dividends
expected shortly the Drum Lun-
ond, sold in Londou for
over !, ZOO, COOL, with it it estimated
double that value Of ore in sight;
the Bell, in Butte, one of the most
promising mines in the Territory;
the Shonbar; the Moulton, with
about an equal. output to the Alice:
the Gable, M Of the finest gold
lodges in existence; and the Anacon-
da, with equally rich copper lodges.
AS a copper producing district, Butte,
Montana, will it is predicted startle
the mining world, and rival Lake
Superior.

Special Correspondence of the MINER.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. i, 'S4.
Thinking that a few theatrical
items might prove acceptable to the
readers of the MINER. l send the fol-
lowing:
The theatres in this city are occu-
pied as follows: The Grand Opera
Houst, by CALENDARS Georgia Minis
trels. The Baldwin is closed. Dion
Bouccicault and his company play at
the California producing the Shoug-
raun, next week. At the Bush Street
Theatre, Frederic Maccabe, a very
clever monologue artist, is playing to
a splendid business giving the entire
entertainment alone, and at the
Standard Theatre, Emerson's Minis
trels are having a phenomenally
large business.
Tommy Morris and wife are at the
Bella Union Theatre as also is Miss
Dody Zanfretta. The Tudors, John,
Annie and Lille are travelling with
a combination known as Wheeler &
Tudor,s English Comedy Company.
They are at present in Victoria,
British Columbia. Fred and Annie
Barry are in Ell Paso, n. NJ. James
Reilly O fSheridan and Reilly is lying
dangerously ill of malarial fever in
Sacramento. The Leo Brothers were
at last accounts travelling with their
own troupe through Utah. Since
leaving Butte Tommy Leo has en-
tered into matrimony, having mar
ried a young lady in Portland, Ore
gon, professionally known as Kitty
Chapman. Bobby and May GayIor
are at the Theatre Comique. Sacra-
mento, California. The charming
Miss Annie Santley is in this city at
present disengaged. Miss Katie
Zanfretta is at present playing at the
Eureka Music Hall, Eureka, New.
She still continues to be a leading ia
verite wherever she goes. The Cat
etts, Lew and Lulu, are in Seattle,
w. T. There are no less than five
first-class theatres and about sixteen
small shows which charge no ad-
mission running in this city at pres
ent, including a permanent circus
situated on Market street. So you
can see that this is quite a paradise
for performers. I am at present
stage manager of the Fountain
Theatre, but think of going to Port
land, Oregon, shortly. L was very
much surprised last evening to re-
ceive a visit from one of Butte City's
gifted citizens in the shape of Mr.
Kid Miller, who, with his usual well
known modesty and difident man.
ner informed me that Butte had
gone to the dogs and that he had
sold out all his valuable property and
contemplated giving his experience
as 'the good Samaritan" to the good
people of Tucson, Arizona, which I
presume he will, by "taking them in"
as his prototype did with the strang-
er of old. F. r.

Mud Singing From the Mud
Ways Of Butte.
The Skill of the Taxidermist.

The unexampled cheapness Of our
ten.cent dress goods has become
known not only throughout this city
bat at distant points. Nearly every
mail brings us orders for these goods
People don't send for samples but
order the goods direct without anv
ceremony, which shows the conf
dence they have in u newspaper
utterances. We place the highest
estimate upon the confidence you re-
pose in us and we could not afford
the slightest deception if we would.
Our dailies are disposed to throw
mud at the people who are supposed
to look after the street. As the street
crossings furaish the mud, we think
nobody will object to the elbow ex-
ercise. We will not, though we are
perhaps as much interested in
OvER-sHoEs
as anybody in town. We think we
have the largest stock, and we know
we keep none but reliable makes
waterproof, n,ud-proof and durable;
just what you want to get even with
Butte h;gh-'mud-ways." You will
lind our prices as low, ifnot the lowest,
and the quality of our rubber goods
as good if not better than you will
find elsewhere.
Several new pieces of carpet were
received yesterday. and the lot in
cludes velvet, moquette, English
brussels, tapestry and ingram. If
quality, style and price are the mat
tiers ,ou propose to consider in buy
ing carpets, we are ready to meet
you. We will speak of this lot of car
pets again, for it is worthy of an ex-
tended notice.
Our stock of fur caps and hats for
ladies is here, and the styles are be-
witching. Birds of every c%onceiva-
BILE hue and shape, many of which
would puzzle the most learned orni-
biologist to place, are the only--gar-
niture, shall We call it? But what is
more beautiful than birds OF rare and
splendid plumag-:: The skill of the

charms.

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Death of q Montana Cowboy and
H Rude but Affecting
Burial,

The Yellowstone JyurnGl narrates
the following particulars of a death
and burial on the plains:
While the beef roundup was near
the Triangle H ranch, on Tongue
river, a cowboy named Cal. Wander
pool, belonging to the TX outfit, at
tempted to cut from the herd 3 calf
which was blind of one eye. While
his horse was on arunt the calf turned
to its blind side and ran in front Of
the horse, which plunged over it,
throwing his rider to the ground
and rolling upon him. He was
picked up insensible and it was
evident that he was badly hurt about
the head, the pommel of the saddle
having crushed the skull. His COM
paniens Immediately carried him to
a tent and sent for Mr.. John Gibbons
to render what medical aid was in
his power. Upon the arrival of MI.
Gibbons, he found that the skull was
crusheds So badly near its base that re-
covery was impossible and that death
must ensue. Mr.. Gibbons immedi-
ately placed him under the infiu-
ence of opitates to alleviate the pain,
under which influence he continued
until death ensued forty-eight hours
later. After life had fled, the body
was placed in a coffin which had
been pre-, AIRED and taken to Sheridan
for interment, accompanied by about
fifty of his companions. At the latter
place, out OF Difference to the occasion
all business was suspended and the
people turned out in a body to pay
respect to the unfortunate man.
A grave was dug upon the hill,
and to it wendell a solemn
procession, composed Of about
fifty of his companions, and the in
habitants in aud around the town.
At the grave, and III the absence of a
minister, Mr.. Reese offered up a fer
want prayer which affected all to
tears; after which several hymns
were sung, all joining in, none show
ing more feeling than his late COM
panions. The earth having beeL
heaped upon the solitary grave all
quietly dispersed-the long line of
COWBOYS solemnly marching in pro-
cession being a sight seldom wit
| messed in this country.

A few years ago company Of strsIlng &C

TEN Of their pockets, but only fifty cents
could be scraped together in the entire
crowd. The money was taken to grocery
In tho little town and invested In cheap soap
The bhrs were cut into small pieces, which
were wrapped'in colsred tissue paper. These
were divided among the men, and they
started out to raise the wind. The wonder
full stories that were told of that soap made
the innocent town people open their eyes.
These little pieces Of soap in their pretty
covering Of tissue paper were sold for TWEEN
ty-fve Cents; . bar Of soap, which cost i've

enough money was raised to take the COM
pany out Of town.
