The Maria Mine.

One of the most promising pros
poets in the district ia the Maria, sit
uated Immediately north of the Alice
and southeast from the Wabash
mine. The property is owned by the
LIE Mour brothers, and is now being
worked under a lease by Messrs.
Frank Pink, John Glenn, Albert
Avery and Con. Murray, who also
hold the property under a bond,
which will probably be taken up by
them at maturity. The lessees have
erected a steam hoist on the property
and are actively prosecuting the work
of exploration and development in
the mine. The shaft has attained
u depth Of 40 feet. At the
seventy foot level a west
drift was ru n, from the slopes Of
which 9l4 tons OF ore has just been
milled which yielded a return OF l05
ounces Of silver to the ton. Three
veins of considerable value and ex-
tent have been developed by open
cuts on the surface, and a station is
now being cut at the l2O from which
prosecuting will be commenced iln-
mediately to tap the ledge developed
above in the 70 foot level aud the
veins prospected on the surface. The
energetic work of development and
exploration by the lessees of the
Maria, may vet be the means of de-
monstrating the value and extent of
the North Rainbow lode.

Clark the Bandit.

Missoula Times 26: The body of
the robber killed Oh Rock Greek was
brought over here, and a %corOner's
inquest was held by G. T. Jones, act
ing coroner. The body was fully
identified as that of AL. Clark. The
verdict of the jury was that the de-
ceased came to his death by one gum
shot wound in the right arm and
eleven in The breast-sjx of which
penetrated the heart-and that the
parties who cid the shooting were
justifable. The body was then buried
beside the remains of the once noto-
rious Pete Matte. Clark came to the
valley last September and brought
with him a fine b!ooded stallion and
valuable mare. The mare he sold
here and the stallion he left with par
ties up the valley. He claimed to be
a prospector and associated himself
with other prospectors. He was
shown some leads and said he con-
sidered them a "bjg thing" and
would go to Butte and raise money
to have them thoroughly developed.
He lett here about four weeks ago
and returned on the same day the
safe was robbed.

The Upper Main Street Assault.

Pat Mcdonald called at the MINER
office last evening and stated that
the difficulty between himself and
the three men who attacked him
Monday evening. grew out of some
financial transactions with Larry
Lennon q year ago, in which he
lent Lennon some money and depos.
tied with him valuables, neither of
which were EVER returned to him.
His denunciatiOns of Lennon for the
manner in which he had acted, led
to the assault, in which Lennon had
the the assistance of two friends.
Mcdonald says he is not satisfied as
to the intentions CT his assailants
with reference to robbery, as his gold
watch was torn from his vest pocket
during the melee. He also says that
he was unarmed at the time, but that
he afterward procured a revolver for
self protection, which he had on his
person when he went into the
Main street saloon later at night, In
company with Officer Cody to point
out one of his assailants. He claims
that he received q blow in the saloon,
which the Doctor says was given
with steel knuckles, and it was then
that he drew his revolver and fired.
He says that his getting out of the
Shonbar and Anaconda employ had
nothing whatever to do with the diff
ficulty.
Mcdonald showed, in his broken
teeth and bruised face, the effects OF
his rough usage at the hands of his
assailants, and while the MINER can
be the champion of the cause OF
neither party, SO many stories have
been told. derOgatory to the part
played by Mcdonald in the difficulty
that it is no more than right that he
should be heard in his own defense.

A CRIME.
An Old Man Murdered at a. Ranch
on Tongue River.

Miles City Press, 26: At about 5
o'clock Tuesday morning, VIM. F.
Goggin, better known os the Kerry
Eagle" came into town and informed
the authorities that a man had been
killed at his house, up Tongue river
about three miles. Judge Cotter
hastily empanelled a jury and pre-.
ceeded to the scene OF the murder,
and there found the body of a man
named McCarty, an old timer of this
town, who led a precacious life, do
ing odd jobs about the town, and
worked on the railroad a while, as
two time checks were in his possess
sion. Owing to the unreasonable
hour the jury did nothing there,
and the body was brought
to Miles City and the inquest was
proceeded with to-day. A represent
atives of the Press interviewed Cog
gin this morning and from his ramb-
ling talk made out as nearly as posi-
bic that Goggin was in town Mon
day, bought a jug of whisky and
started for his ranch at about three
o'clock, carrying the whiskey with
him. McCarty was stopping at the
ranch and Goggin said they were 60
ing to have a big Christmas spree.
According to Goggin's statement
when he reached the house he saw
blood on the doorstep, and inside lay
Mccarthy all bloody and with four
holes in his head, probably caused by
blows from a pick. The man was
quite dead. Goggin was in a state Of
intoxication bordering on insanity,
and coolly proceeded to cook and eat
his supper, and then lighting four
caudles in the shack, proceeded to
town to bear the horrible news.
The coroner's jury brought i'll a
verdict of death by lean of blows
upon the head made by some sharp
instrument in the hands of some per-
son to the jury unknown.

Holland Comedy Company.

The Holland Comedy Co., which
made so favorable an impression up
on our theatre goers during their
former visit to Butte, will return on
Monday evening next and open in
Henry J. Byrne's master piece "The
Lancashire Lass" for which produce
ton Manager Mcguire has spared no
expense in making it a worthy finale
to the departing year. Since their
absence the Holland Company has
been strengthened and to-day it can
be fairly considered the strongest dra-
matte organization in America. The
Helena Herald thus speaks of their
performance Of the 1.-Two Orphans:
By far the largest house of the sea-
son was that last night which greeted
the Holland Comedy Company
in the famous play of "The Two
Orphans" Great preparations
were made by the manage
ment to place this famous piece be-
fore the public in the best manner,
and for this purpose an eminent
scene painter was specially employed.
And to show to what extent he had
pleased the public and how he had
successfully drawn the portraits in
the play, the garden scene and the
winter scene in the 1.-TWO Orphans"
were severaily applauded. The
many good points in the acting were
all caught by an appreciative audi
ence and applauded to the echo. Mr..
Holland, as Chevalier de Vaudry,
was up to his reputation for truthful
%portraiture OF character as much as
in any part he has taken in Helena.
But the splendid acting Of Miss Belle
Douglass in her character Of the pro-
fossional beggar- woman, who cap.
lures the orphan Henriette and trans
her in the squalid calling. won the
highest praises of the audience. The
whole piece was a fine picture of
natural characters in @ beautiful set
ting of fine scenes upon canvas done
by Paxson. The house, which was
. very large and a very fashionable
one, run up the receipts to over $500.
Tonight the 1.-TWO Orphans" will be
repeated, and should it be as we'll re-
ceived as it was last night it nay
run through the engagement.

DIPHTHERIA,
BUTTE, Dec. p, 1888.

Mr.. Editor:
us it no. ominous in all countries
when crows and ravens cr0ak upon trees??'
The plumage of those birds of ill
omen being neither auburn mol much
less red, and the presence of diph-
liberia in our midst not a mere rumOr
but a too well established fact, the
fallacy of any comparison is obvious.
This fearful guest, Diphthe1ia, has
become so unceremOniOus in his be-
havior, has so completely forgotten
his role as a guest, that we cannot be
expected to revere the otherwise sa-
cred laws of hospitality any longer
and must endeavor to GUST him as
soon as possible.
method, some points of general inter-
est regarding the modus of dislodging
the invading foe have occurred to me
and prompt me to express a few
thoughts regarding the mystery of its
power and dissemination. Time and
space not allowing me to enter into
the question as to what constitutes
the element of infection in diphthe-
ria, I shall confine myself to modes
in which it is spread and how it may
he arrested.
1t is generally assumed that this
disease is disseminated by mysterious
atmospheric influences. 1t is my ex-
perience, however, that the disease
spreads solely through the ordinary
channels of infection. The chief
source of the injecting element is
probably given off with the breath or
with the expectoration, tut, since the
disease may also spread over the di-
gestive tracts the ready means Of dis
seminatiOn are obvious.
I believe the infection of diphthe-
ria to be rs portable as any disease
with which we are acquainted. The
infection will not only remain in IN
scavepged collections of excreta and
in the air of closed sewers. but will
attach itself to articles of clothing
and furniture and most persistently
to wall paper. Examples of the dis
ease having been taken from u
house and carried to another by Wis
itors are numerous. You will OBJ
serve from the above that although
the modes of dissemination of diph-
liberia are numerous and SUBJ
tie we may notwithstanding
be able to control them
by carrying out disinfection
with precision. Not to weary you,
allow me to state in concluding, that
of all diseases this is the M most
liable to spread by schools. The rea-
son is not far to seek, since the dis
ease is frequently SO mild as not to
keep children from school, and may
not present external indications.
[ would suggest as a matter OF Or
binary practice that, Is soon a. any
cases of infectious sore throat have
occurred In connection with a school,
that the schooIsshould be closed for
a sufficient number of days to
cover the ordinary period
of the incubation of the disease.
Provided proper attention had been
paid to the disinfecting and thorough
cleansing OF the school walls and
places of necessity pertaining to the
institution the period of one week
would suffice. the utmost caution,
however, regarding the resemblance

A BUTTE BRUTE.
a Well Known Butteite Accused
OF Ne2lecting and Desert
ing His Sick Wife.

Livingston Enterprise, Dec. q:
Some three months ago a well dressed
and gentlemanly appearing fellow
named Harry Howard arrived in
Livingston from Butte, at which
place he had been the ostensible
proprietor of the Grand Central
Hotel, one of the leading caravansa-
ries Of the otherwise sinful burg. He
Was accompanied by his wife, and
together they yer domiciled at the
Brunswick. l;eing a printer by
trade, Howard soon secured en-
ployment in the Tribune Office, his
energetic wife IN the meantime earn
ing the board for both in the dining
room of the Brunswick. For some
weeks everything went on Smooth
ly and the two commanded the es-
TEEN and good will of those with
whom they were brought in daily
contact. An unfortunate attack of
acute rheumatism compelled the he
roic little lady to take to her bed and
then the true character of the con-
temptible husband speedily devel.
oped itself. With his wife nc longer
able to support him, he left the house
and her and secured board for him.
self during the remainder of his stay
in Livingston at different places about
town, while she was cared for out of
the generous heart of the hotel pro-
prietor and attaches, and the assist
ance of one Of the girls of the Mer-
chants hotel, who had voluntarily
r~eiin4uished a position she could ill
afford to lose that she might minister
to the wants of a friend and former
mistress The offices of several gentle
men were enlisted in her behalf and
the Tribune proprietors approached
to SEE if nothing could be done to
compel the brute to give at least a
part of his liberal salary to aid in Sc
curing the many little things always
needed in a sick room. TO all over
lures there a but one reply: 1T
is none of u business" And so
the neglected wife suffered Oh,
cheered only by the presence of those
between whom and her no bond
of relationship existed other than
that of humanity. But the denou-
ment came on Saturday, when the
creature whose name heads this ar
ticle gathered his available funds to
gether, amounting to several hum
ured dollars, it is said, and lit out

which should blow him to perdition.

Diphtheria.

Several new cases of diphtheria
have been developed in the city, and
parents are much alarmed. The
seven-year old daughter of W. L.
Game and the infant daughter Of
Mike O'Donnell died Thursday
night. There have been six fatal
cases during the past few days, and
the physicians report 80 cases under
treatment. The disease is combatted
with every known method OF science
and theory, but as yet no anti-germi-
eide has been discoyered to eradicate
the bacteria or microcci of the dis
ease.

Cash Well Spent.

Money expended in personal
adornment is often foolishly wasted
upon articles of no intrinsic value. A
bottle OF Sozodont, however, is worth
its weight in gold to anyone troubled
with poor teeth, and its price is cash
well spent by the purchaser. Though
it will not make the teeth regular,
thew who use it are astonished at the
rapid improvements it effects in the
dental row. Moreover, they breathe
sweetness, and have healthy gums
and ruddy lips.
