HARGE OF THE BUTTE BRI-
GADE. .

Forward the Butte brigade!
Charge for the spike! twas said
Camp in the open glade;
From your homes sundered.
Buggies to right of them!
Wagons to left of them!
Cars back and front of them,
Rumbled and thundered
Theirs not to make reply;
Theirs not to question why
Spikes are so very high!
Theirs the invites to fly.
Fourth of a hundred.
Was there a man dismayed?
Was there a boy afraid?
Was there a child who said,
Some one had Numbered?
Flashed their red badges bright!
Cleaned out their dollars might!
Through one long day and night.
Bamboozled, plundered.
Filled they cabooses hot,
Cattle cars daunt them not,
Lamp-rooms they stormed and got,
Bites by the hundred.
Stared at by Europe's best!
Preached at without a rest!
Hungry aad dry, contest,
Still on they blundered.
Specials to right of them;
Specials to left of them,
Started ahead of them!
All! How they wondered.
Back from their fruitless MOL.
Dusty and worn they toll;
Stains their red ribbons soil;
Not worth 100 cents. |
Oh, that dread spike! they cried;
Why was it rumor had lied?
Naught of it we d esired.
Spikes all be -- thundered!

These Daily Talks Are Nothing
More Nor Less Than Ad.
vertisements.
The Clam.

Every day for several days past We
have had considerable to say about
ready made clothing, boots, hats,
underwear and other belongings usu-
ally known as gents furnishing
goods. W. don't wish to talk about
this branch of our business to the
detriment of the other branches, mol
until it shall become monotonous to
our readers. It is, of course, patent
to all that these daily talks, as We
may term them, are written in the
interests of our business. We would
not conceal this fact if we could.
While they are nothing more nor
less than advertisements, still we
have endeavored to make them read
able, believing that by doing so we
would make them more effective.
AS a general thing advertisements
are not generally read, but we have
every reason to believe that ours have
possessed some interest even to the
general reader. In the future as in
the past, we hope to hold the atten-
ton of all and we will spare no effort
to do so. But to return to
GENTLEMAN's BELONGINGS.
We haven't pretended to keep
ready-made clothing and boots for
some time past for want Of room:
and, therefore, you've been buying
these goods at other places and natu-
rally don't expect to find them here.
But we have increased our room by
the addition of an adjoining building
which will be ready for occupancy
within a few days, and which will
be used exclusively for clothing and
gents furnishing goods. Our new
stock has not only been bought but
several thousand dollars worth of it
is already here and although we cam
not display it we'll as yet. This, and
because there is sharp cutting of
prices of goods of this character are
the reasons we feel inclined to keep
the subject prominently before yov.
If you want a stylish modern and
in every way desirable suit or any
thing in the furnishing line we can
please you and will make it to
your advantage to buy of us or shut
up as tight as a clam.
Very respectfully,
SANDS & BOYCE.

TIDAL WAVE,
Rapid Development of a Com
paratively New District.
Paying Prospects and Big
Assays.

Special Correspondence of the MINER.
SALISBURY, M. T., Sept 7.
This district is situated in Madison
County, Montana, in what is known
as the Tobacco Root Range. 1t is a
comparatively new camp, the oldest
location being made in 1881. In 1864
considerable work was done by pros
pectors who were looking for gold
As the cost of transportation was too
heavy in those days, and anything
but gold was valueless to them, and
the consequence was that silver, lead,
copper and other minerals were
abandoned. In 1881, working facili-
ties being better, the camp was again
prospected for silver, and with good
success. At the present time there
are at least a hundred good paying
prospects, and new leads r being
struck every day. Assays may be
had from some Of them as high as
$4,000. The veins are all we'll de-
fined, and for what development
there has been done, no camp in
Montana has a better showing. This
summer a twenty-ton water jacket
smelter was put up, and is now rum
ming in full blast on galena and other
smelling ores with which this camp
abounds. There was also erected
oscilating works, for the purpose of
treating the gold quartz of the nu-
merous gold leads. A ten-stamp gold
mill and two arastras are working in
Wisconsin gulch, and they have
plenty of good quartz to keep them
running for a number of years to
come. There is no doubt whatever
in the minds of those who are now
there that if more working facilities
Were introduced it would prove to be
one of the best silver producing
camps in Montana. The mines are
easy of access, and, so far, there
has been no trouble with water. In
fact, it is a poor mans camp. The
is principally granite and
slate, and higher up the mountain
the formation is all lime and qnartz-
tie. Some of the richest leads are
found in the lime, and, SO far, none
Of them have shown Indications of
out. In a few years, when
the mines are more developed and
the ore output estimated, there is 10
doubt but that Georgia gulch will be
.ined with smelters. S.

Club.

large number Of young and enthu-
siastic Democrats of Canton met in Con-
cOrdia Hall, Wednesday evening, pursu-
ant to call, and organized by calling
Mayor PierO to the chair, and appoint
ing Louis LOichet jr., Secretary.
On motion it was unanimously ordered
that Louis Sehaefer ESQ.,, be invited to
address the club next Wednesday even
ing.
A. McGregor being present, was called
on for few remarks. On rising he said
he was not ready with anything like
speech, but recognized the Importance
and necessity of organizing. We had
repeatedly lost Stark county for lack of
organization. Every precinct should be
thoroughly organized. 1t was the prop
or and effective way to arouse our
friends, and get all to interest themselves
in doing full duty toward securing an
other glorious victory like that Of last
year, The moral effect upon the count
ry of another such victory in Ohio would
be great. Mr.. McGregOr gave history
of the Know Nothing time near thirty
years ago; told how that secret Organi-
zation swept Ohio and swallowed
Stark county in 1854; how the Democrats
organized in secret in 1855, merely for
the purpose of fighting the devil with
fire; that the Sag NIGHTS were effective
in their work of breaking down the
Know Nothing affair, for our men were
all instructed in the Know Nothing
work; knew their signs and pass words,
and could and did enter their councils,
and knew all that was done. The X. n.
organization was against adopted citi-
Zens and Catholics; their motto was:
Put none but Americans on guardp
The Sag NIGHTS organization revived
the dropping spirits of Democrats, and
n
the interest taken in the good work. A
few words about the record and schem-
ing measures of the Republican party
closed his remarks.

Silver Wedding.

Saturday, September 18th, was the Oc-
casiOn of an agreeable surprise served
on Mr.. and Mrs. Charles LIE Beau, of
Brown township, Carroll county, by
their relatives and friends who, without
consent or request on part of the above
named family, met at their residence to
celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of
their wedding. The party was led in
procession by the RObertsville Band, and
the surprise was most complete and
amusing. After the surprise had some
what subsided, the company engaged in
social chat as is common on such Occa:
siOns, interspersed with music, during
which the family had a chance to re
cover from the shock. The attention of
the company was next directed to the
tables which fairly grOaned under the
bOunteOus supply of luxuries provided
by the party, but which were soon re-
lieved of a portion Of their burden by
upwards of fifty hungry guests, each of
whom seemed tacitly to say 1T is good
to be here" The afternoon was spent
very pleasantly, being well seasoned
with good music. The band did full
Justice to the occasion, and although
but in its infancy it bids fair to become
success. We heartily commend it to
the public patronage.
In token of sincere respect, Mr.. and
Mrs. LIE Beau were made the recipients
of elegant and valuable presents, which
were received with genuine gratitude.
AS the day drew to a close the as
semblage quietly sought their respective
abode, each cherishing fond hope for
the future welfare and happiness of the
brother and sister who have Just COM
pleted a quarter of century in cOnnu-
bal life. May they live to witness the
annual return of many more wedding
days. ONE OF THE HUNGRY GUESTS.

In the SaxtOn black, is an establishment
worthy of any of our largest cities.
Happening to drop in yesterday to greet
our friends and glance about, we were
surprised at their magnificent and ex-
tensive display OF goods. Their late ar

The dress goods department is attrac-
tive with novelties and rich in display.
The supply in this line is vast enough to
suit all tastes and supply all demands.
Plaids, cloths and dress goods, the
cheapest and finest.
The silk department is peculiarly at
tractive to the ladies. Elegant silks in
every color, and velVets in every variety,
to be appreciated must be seen. Special
bargains may be had in this line, es-
pecially in black silks.
In their cloak department may be
seen all the novelties of the season. The
new styles and shapes are attractive,
and the fur lined circulars should be
seen.
As to shawls, this house is showing
them in great prOfusiOn, and superb in
quality. Their Paisley and wOOllen
shawls are especially entitled to exam
inatiOn.
In tancy Goods, such as laces, hand
kerchtefs, trimmings, fringes, ladies and
gents underwear, hosiery, gloves, &C.,
they cannot be surpassed, and invite at

ment On Fire


ment on Fire.
The alarm of fire on Thursday morn
ing about o'clock was caused by the
burning of Dannemiller's frame boiler
house adjoining their large brick block,
and was promptly answered by Steamer
company No. l, hose company No. 3 and
Chief LathrOp. The Chief found the
fire had already spread into the brick
building. and the first, second and third
floors were ablaze. The steamer began
by deluging the frame boiler house.
which was about burned down. No. 3
commenced work on the north side, Sec
ond floor of the main, building, from a
ladder furnished by the Robinson Hooks
who, as usual, were promptly on hand.
Nos. Z, 8 and 6 companies responded
in very short time, and all did splen-
did service. The position of Nos. and
was very dangerous, and although the
people looking on called on them to
come down, they never flinched, but were
determined to conquer as usual. Nos.
2 and q fought nObly from the east end
of the building, finally going on to
the Sd floor. The steamer company did
good service on the third floor from a
ladder which had to be placed in a wa
gOn to make it reach. This fire demon
strates that our ladder facilities are not
equal to our needs, as it is impossible to
splice more than one ladder to reach the
third floor. After about two hours hard
work our fire laddies became masters of
the situation, and Dannemiller q Sons
building was saved with all the floors
and roof entire, though sOmewha
scOrched. 1t would seem that good
luck attends our fremen as only one
man has been hurt at the last two fires,
MIR. Philip T1seh of No. had his scalp
laid oman for QhOut thraa inahao hxy a
pane of glass falling from the third floor
when he was standing on the window
sill of the second floor. After having a
surgeon sew it up, he came back to
work. The Council should supply the
boys with good truck and good ladders,
for we learn they are much needed.
The damage to buildings is about ST.
600; to engine room and TOasters near
$1,000, and on stock somewhere between
5000 and $4,000.
The insurance on stock amounts to
S2I 900, distributed as follows.

work at the late fire, and says, if Doc
tors and citizens generally, would cease
to interfere at fires, things would work
better. Too many cooks sometimes
