Glendale Notes,

Since our last communication from
this camp there have been few
changes, but those few are for the
better.
The new stone Office of the Hecla
company is very neat and conven-
lent, and an ornament to our mon
otonous street.
Many Of the unsightly sheds
around the smelter buildings have
been removed and the whole place Is
improved.
The Glendale House is now con-
trolled by Jack Reynolds, who runs
q comfortable hack from Melrose for
the benefit Of travellers who patronize
his house, or the we'll known Avery
House.
Mn. May Cook, after the fashion
of young married ladies, has come
home for a visit to her parents, but
being 80 well satisfied with Butte,
and her own pleasant home there,
she will hardly favor US long with
her presence.
Rev. Dwight Spencer, who has
charge of the Baptist mission work
in Montana. Idaho and Utah, was
with US last Sunday, listener to the
morning discourse of Rev. o. w.
Mtntzer, who courteously rendered
him the use of his pulpit for the even
ing service. Mr.. Spencer's sermon
was eloquent and unusually inn
pressive, from the words: "Who
kn0west but thou are come into the
kingdom for such a time as this?
The public schools will open early
next month In charge of Prof. H. s.
Reynolds, whose enthusiasm as q
student and varied experience as q
teacher render him especially fitted
for the position.
The primary department will be in
charge of Miss Ida Mintzer, lady of
fine ability and education. Miss
Mintzer tested herself here
last summer in 9 two months school.
winning the love of the little ones,
and the respect Of the parents.
There is every prospect Of good
work for the next school gear.
During q recent thunder slower,
the electricity was conducted into the
office on the telegraph wires, illu-
the room in brilliant
and completely spelling the
Instruments. Ed. is willing to re-
place them, seeing he is still alive to
10 it.

PARIS, August 16.-Hardly q day

A Breeze in the Opera House
in Helena.

Frequent complaints from prominent parties
and the loud conduct of two frail characters,
provoked an order from Manager Mcguire q
few days ago, that the demi-monde were not to
have seats in the Helena opera house outside
the first three rows in the parquette circle
This order was not received with kindness by
that class. On the 18th inst five women
dressed in the garb of Sisters of Charity, includ
ing bonnets, rosaries and full black dress pre-
sented themselves at the door Of the opera
house with tickets calling for seats in one of the
rows designated for the demi-monde. Mr..
Mcguire happened to be at the door at the time
and perceiving at once what was the matter
sent them back telling them that the opera that
evening was not to be a masquerade ball. The
Helena papers only express the sentiment OF
every right thin king person when they con-
denim the action of these women appearing In
the uniform of a society whose character and
work all grades of society and every religious
sect hold in high esteem.

Another Attempt to Break Jail.

Last Thursday night the guard In
the yard of the penitentiary at Deer
Lodge thought he saw the ground
beginning to give away in q certain
spot outside Of the log house in which
some of the prisoners are kept. He
kept his eye on the place. Pretty
soon the bottom fell out. and the
head Of q prisoner appeared. The
guard turned loose with his gun and
the head ducked back in short order.
Some OF the prisoners tired of such q
monotonous life thought they would
tunneltheir way out and this time
would try and take chances on get
ting over the fence instead of under
1t. Such is life, however, they were
disappointed agaiu and doubtless will
always be disappointed In such at
tempts as long as warden Creel has
charge of the institution.

The Piegan Indians.

River Press, August sth: The straits to which
this once powerful tribe are reduced is pitiful.
With no provisions and starvation staring them
in the face, would it be wonder if they should
make war on the nerds ofcattle adjacent otheil
reservation? A famine in Ireland, or any part
of the world, eniists the sympathy of all Ameri'
cans. while in our midst are more than 5000
peop'e actually starving. and not finger raised
to help them This does not speak well for US.
Effective aid should at once be given these In.
disns, or the matter brought before the depart.
ment in such q way that assistance will speedily
be rendered.

age OF ffty-seven and q half feet.
They have applied to the city council
for FIVE feet of the alley Immediately
back of the lot upon which they pro-
pose to build and which it is hoped
the council will grant. This will
give the association q plat of ground

will be occupied by the building.
The enterprise will certainly be
carried through as the stockholders
include many of our most substantial
and most public spirited cit zens.
These men have taken hold of the
matter in earnest and intend to carry
it out. The house is to be the finest

the rounds of the West Side press to
the effect that District Attorney
