A RICH FIND.
Tidal Wave District Coming to
the Front.

From q letter just received from A.
E. Gade, of Tidal Wave District, we
are allowed to clip the following: IA
remarkable gold lead has been devel>
oped by the Anderson brothers with
in the past few days. The lead mas
been worked all winter by three
brothers, who have taken out con-
siderable amount Of rich gold quartz.
WithiH u few days the ore has ill.,
creased in richness wonderfully, and
I an4--Aet exaggerating particle
To give you at it beats Bodies hest
will state what l saw Anderson 10
Yesterday. He brought two-pound
can of fine quartz dust down from
the lead and after pounding it up in
mortar panned out So in coarse gold.
The rock in the pay streak is light
colored iron and is literally coated
with gold as coarse as table salt.
Nuggets worth from 50 to IS cents
are found in cavities. They have
taken m the lower extension and have
already struck the lead. am trying
to get the upper extension and hope
to strike it in day or two. The snow
ia ahout two feet deep where I am
work;ng and it bothers me little.
It is disappearing rapidly however.
/ shall be in Butte in a week or 50
and bring some of the rock In. The
rest Of the leads are all looking fine
and representing and developing
f: will soon begin.

Pete Mccoy.

This young pugilist leaves to-day
to join the Sullivan combination at
Cleveland, Ohio. Mccoy came here
alone TO :ight Mcdonald. He was
not followed up by gang Of roughs,
nor was he surrounded by them pre-
ceding or during the fight. In thus
throwing himself among strangers,
relying entirely upon their sense Of
fair play for an even deal all around,
he gained the sympathy and friend
ship of all those with whom ae camse
III conlacI- ef bravado, SaWgg-
er, or boasting. He fought Mcdonald
manfulIy and gamely and conquered
him fairly, and there is not one who
was present at the contest who Will
not say he fully earned his victory.
He had no picnic with Mcdonald.
but by his gameness, science, gener~
alship and perfect knowledge Of the
arts of the ring he overcame the
Butte boy. 1t took Mccoy to 40
it; q less experienced pugilist would
have carried away neither the nom
ors nor the money. AS 1t is Pete
takes both and he leaves here carry.
ing with him the best wishes OF all
who made his acquaintance.

Anaconda Notes.

From u party who came up from
yesterday we learn that
grading is not yet completed on the
road from Stuartto that place. About
200 men are employed upon it.
The deep cuts in the bluffs opposite
Anaconda are being recut on account
of the caving in Of the ban Ks. They
will be made much wider.
Bridge building on the line of the
road will be commenced next week.
1t Is not expected trains will be
run over it before the tirst-of July.
Business is not rs good az many an
ticipated it would be at this time OF
the year, but 1t is thought 1t will inn
prove as soon as the road IS COM
pleted.
Two hundred men are being em-
ployed by the Anaconda company.
The company Is digging ditch from
leyengood's ranch-tnree miles
above the works-for the purpose OF
conveying water to the smelter. The
ditch will be covered to prevent freez'
ing in the winter.
Considerable building Is still go'ne
on at the place-mOre, 1t Is thought
than the future business OF the place
will justify.

Almost a Fire.

At about 1880 last evening AL
alarm of fire was sounded from
Gwin 4 Warehouses; saloon on Main
street. At the same time pnfts OF
smoke issuing from the front door
plainly indicated there was danger
ahead. In less than three minutes
over thousand people had assem-
bled In the street opposite the build
ing, and moment or two after the
city fire departments Lose cart came
tearing down the street. Before tue
hose was attached to the fire plug,
word was passed that the
fire was extinguishrd: the
alarm was caused by the
falling Of Il lighted chandelier
which scattered the burning oil in
every direction. The fire was soon
smothered by blankets and the coat
of a person present. The damage is
trifling, being confined to badly
scared bar and the destruction Of the
lamps in the chandelier. The
promptness of the fire department In
responding to the alarm was f1atter'
ingly commented upon by every one
present.
