The Click Monument.

Many old-timers living in Silver
Bow and Deer Lodge counties, will
be glad to hear of this tribute of re-
spect paid to the memory of their old
friend. The Independent says:
The monument to be erected at
the Helena cemetery to the memory
of DR.. Click, has arrived at the de-
pot and will be placed in position
the coming week-probAb'y to-mor-
ROW (Monday). This monument
was purchased, 1t will be remem-
bered, by the doctors old-time Mon
tana friends, and its cost was over
$75u. Old-timers in all parts of the
territory contributed to the fund.
The shaft is nearly eleven feet high.
The pedestal consists of three parts, a
granite base three feet square, and
on this will rest two blocks of mar
BILE, the upper one being inscribed
with the name of the deceased, and
the lower one with the inscription
"From His Pioneer Friends" The
shaft, or monument proper, contains
the regular inscription, all being in
raised letters. The whole will con-
stltute handsome and lasting token
of the high regard in which DR..
Click was held by old Montanians.

A Sensible Letter.

LONDON, August 20.--Clement R.
Markham, secretary of the Royal
Geographical Society, who served in
the Arctic expedition of 1851, in
search of Sir John Franklin, has
written letter saying: "The accu-
sati0n of murder and cannibalism
made against the Greely party is
disgrace to American journals. De-
cency would suggest silence until
Greely had submitted his report to
the government" Markham con-
tinuing says, "The American navy
department should have controlled
and been responsible for the expe-
dition. The party should never have
been left withouta a depot ship win
tering within accessible distance of
them. The difficulty of navigating
the channels north of Smiths Sound
was ignored and precautions neg
lected hence the catastrophe for
which there is no cause. Lieutenant
Greely's observatory work will form
q valuable supplement to the series OF
observations which were taken by
the ship Discovery in 1S45. Men,
bers of the Greely expedition are mis-
taken, however, in stating Beau
mOnt's Cape Britannia was visible
from Lincoln Bay west side of Robe
son channel. The real Cape Britain
mia is invisible from Lincoln Bay, the
most distant land being Cape May
and Mount Hooker. The point which
and Brainerd reached was
Cape May not Cape Britannia. The
next land they reached was Beau
mont Island with small Island be-
tween it and the main land Of Britain

=. DELPHA, IND, August 19.-A
little after Z o'clock this morn,n9 tha
oody OF VIM. Whistler, late member
1i tne dreely party, was exhumed.
Lrssent were two physicians, Whist
lers father, aged grandfather and
grandmother, half-a-dozen laborers
and several reporters. The grave
Wnere the body was inferred is near
Eockheld, three miles east of this
place. 1t Is In country churchyard
containing not more than half-a-dozen
graves. The body was exhumed and
taken under the shade of tree near
the grave About ten minutes were
required to loosen the bolts of the
casket. Inside was q quantity of
cotton waste, which, with, the CORPSE.
filled the coffin. Whistler's remains
were wrapped in muslin and holding
this in place was a hemp cord. A
heavy blanket was next to the body.
There was no further clothing
upon 1t. The head was entire
ly covered with a skull cap
with sealskln on the outside. Rem
nantS OF mittens were on his hands.
The face and trunk were In good
preservation. His red hair and beard
easily identified HIM to his friends.
All flesh had been cut from Whist
ler's arms and legs. The limbs were
perfectly bare of muscle. The right
foot Which had been frozen was not
touched by the knife and the left
hand was cut only to the wrist. The
breast was not touched but every
particle of flesh was stripped from the
back. Physicians found nothing in
the stomach. The Doctors will make
no report of their observations unless
asked by the government.

New Placer DieRings Found Near
Miseoula.

The Missoula Chronicle says that
for the EAST three weeks Mr.. F. L.
Pitcher has been prospecting along
the creek about four miles east of
town, and has found considerable
color. Saturday he evidently struck
it rich, and came into town and re-
corded his claim. No sooner did the
transaction become noised around
than general march began toward
the diggings. and almoet Immediately
the spot was covered with impromptu
prospectors. Quite number of
claims were staKed off, and all who
were lucky enough to obtain claims
think they are rich. The close prox.
unity of these fields to Missoula, and
also to water will render their being
worked very cheap'y and easllyS
The discovery was made at the right
of the second railroad bridge across
the Missoula river east of town, but
indications are found anywhere with.
in two or three miles up or down the
creek. Speedy developments will
be made and then we
can with more definiteness give our
readers statement Of the true con-
dition of the field: AS yet accounts
are very meagre, but entirely cor
of each other.

Hump Rec. a chief of the Two Ket-

recently at Pierre, Dakota. The chief
was clothed in white shirt, black

himself in a very polite manner and
proved to be smart and cuta. The
