From the Da: of Thurs Pay,
THE FIRE.
West Park Street Visited by the
Devouring Element.

Between 10 and II o'clock last
night an alarm of fire" was raised
in the principal streets of the city.
The Gagnon whistle awakened the
echoes in the surrounding noun
tains, the fire bell sounded the dread
signal, and the rushing feet and
piercing shouts of alert firemen
spoke of danger at hand. The curl
ing flames issuing from q building on
West Park street indicated the local
ity of the fire fiend. The building
proved to be the one occupied by
Madame Lennox adjoining Rem
shaw's Opera House on the east side.
The firemen were promptly on the
spot with their carts, and although
there was some little delay in max
ing connections of bose two streams
Of water were soon playing upon the
flames. In less than five min utes
from the time the water was turned
on the fire was completely extin-
guished, scarcely a spark being Wis.,
ible.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
From what we could learn it appears
Madame Lennox had left the house
about 7 o'clock in the evening and
had left two lamps burning in her
rooms. Whether one Or both of
them exploded or whether the fire
was the result of some other cause,
was not ascertained at the time. The
Madame returned when the fire was
being extinguished. but our reporter
failed in an attempt to interview her
as to its origin. The furniture and
her wardrobe were insured for $775 in
the Hartford. What was not burned
in the building was either
destroyed or injured by the flood Of
water thrown upon it. Too much
praise cannot be awarded to both fire
departments for their efforts to check
the progress of the flames and to save
the adjoining property. With our
present water supply and our we'll
organized and efficient fire depart
ment it will he a very cold day when
Butte will be left to the mercy of the
fire fend.

Snake Y Placers.

A correspondent of the Salt Lake
Tribune writing from Eagle Rock
gives a glowing account of the placer
mines now being worked on Snake
river, near that place. We take the
following extract from a recent
letter:
1T has been known for years that
hundreds Of acres of rich ground de-
posts, containing exceedingly fine,
scaly gold, lie along Snake river
above and below this point, but ex-
cept in q few rich spots where eddies
had deposited extra amounts of gold
the gravel leads have been neg
lected
1.-THE gold is so exceedingly fine
that no ordinary process will save it,
and former prOspectors have invaria-
bly, been so Disguised at finding their
tailings as rich in gold as before they
went through the sluice boxes that
they have always given it up as a
bad job, pronouncing it impossible to
save gold so very fine and light.
Another difficulty, for anything
more extensive than cradle washing,
has been the scarcity of water that
could he made available. But now
all these difficulties are being over
come, and it seems safe to make the
assertion that every acre of land
in the upper Snake River Valley,
north of this point, will easily pro-
duce upward Of S. 5000 in gold dust.
all of which can easily be separated
from mother earth. These lands are
now being rapidly located for min
ing purposes, and miles upon miles
OF stakes are seen on both sides of the
river. Several companies are now
successfully at work, but scarcely q
beginning has been made. So far
every experiment under the present
process OF working has been q COM
plete success. The frat company
above Eagle Rock. Messrs. Edwards,
Quay)e & Quirk, lately made an ex-
pertinent run of forty days, and
cleaned up 81, O6O, doing all the work
themselves and employing no help.
The other companies are doing about
the same in proportion. Messrs. Ed
wards Il Co. say it will take them, at
the rate they have been running,
about four years to work out one acre
of ground. Every acre of their 60
acre claim, they say, will yield fully
as we'll as the SPOT they are now |
in fact, there seems no
limit to the amount of ground which
can be as successfully worked, for it |
reaches miles away from the river on
both Sides"

Railroad Accident.

Number 10 freight train met with
an accident at about 2 o'clock yester
day morning five miles south of Glen
Station, which resulted in the ditch
ing of two engines and five cars.
Fireman Sears was seriously injured
and died at 6:2O o'clock last evening.
The train was a double-header, aud
both engines were injured, but not
seriously. The accident was caused
by the front engine striking a COW,
which threw both locomotives from
the tack. The wreck has been
cleared and trains are running again
On time.

Mines in other sections of the Ter
ritory are also looking well and add
ing very materially to the output.
The first east-bound train which left
Helena, the Territorial capital and
center, W. the Northern Pacific,
about six weeks ago, was burdened
with upwards of one million pounds
of silver lead bullion from the Greg
cry mine, contiguous to that city,
and the fact that the product of the
famous Drum Lummon, which was
sold last spring for 81 $500, 600, will be
treated before snow flies in a new
60-stamp mill, now en- route. will
give some idea of the increasing i'm
portance of Helena as a mining CEN
ter, and also the center of a wonder
fully productive mining region.
The Penn's Grove record., 1883-12-15

Charley Lamber was a printer. /
mention the fact merely to let you know
that he was not rich. But he had fall
en- deeply-blissfully-in love with a
nice, industrius little girl, and the con-
sequence was that he became reckless
with his money-began to save-and at
the expiration of a year offered said
''lIttle girl" a neatly furnished suit of
rooms, and his ''heart and handn to
keep the bread basket filled, if she would
come and make the ''room'' home for
him.
Like a sensible girl she came. Every
thing was coy for two, new and bright
as life itself promised to be.
Charley frisked around the type like a
happy man, and the ''little wife" stayed
at home and studied nice little surprises
for him in the way of economical tit
bits for his hungry palate, and gently
somewhat shyly-entertained the social
ly inclined neighbors who iran inn to
see the pretty young wife and offer her
the benefit of their superior experience
as wives and housekeepers.
Charley thought it vas kind indeed
he was glad he had selected rooms in
such an interesting social house; the
people were all respectable, and the in
~tercourse would keep the new Mrs.
Lambert from becoming lonely during
his absence.
One morning Charley brought home
a couple of bottles of American cham
payne as a present for the young wife
fiom some of the boys at the office.
Get the corkscrew, little wife, while
l break up ONE ice for our feast,n
going to the neat little refrigerator he
bad provided for their tidy establish
ment.
so dear, what shall we doP The
woman upstairs borrowed the corkscrew
a few days ago. She has not returned
it yet" Mrs. Charley remarked, in some
distress.
"Neyer mind, Wen manage. But
what's all this stuff on ice. You have
laid in a big breakfast-cucumbers,
steak, chicken" the young husband
enumerated.
"The steak is for us, the cucumbers
belong to the woman on the upper floor,
and the chicken to the old lady in the
real room; they have no place to keep
things, and l don't like to refuse when
they asked me to give 1t place, it seems
SO disobliging.n
Charley felt like saying bad things;
