n Nightingale Buried in the Wilde ness
of Canada.
Richard Dale received a letter on Thurs
day which shows that Sacramento is COM
ing into direct commercial relations with
very remote places, through the compile
ton of the Canadian Pacific Railway and
the lines connecting it with this city. The
letter referred to was from miss Maggie
LIE Buff, Fort Mcleod, Stand OFF, Alberto
county, n. W T., Canada" It was post
marked at Fort Mcleod on the 18th of
May, stamped in transit at Victoria, June
24th and reached this city on the 2Sth
The young lady wants The Cold, Chilly
Winds of December You Are False,
But I'll Forgive You Put My Little
Shoe Away" and 81 Wish 1 Was Single
Again" She also desiles the Boston Dip
Waltz" =" My Queen Waltz" and The
Song of the Little Sunny South"
Mr.. Dale has been specializing on this
curious order ever since he received the let
ter, and has imagined all sorts of things in
connection with the young lady. "She is
probably some sweet girl" said he, who
was brought up in society, maybe in this
delightful cline, and who has been taken
off there and buried in that wilderness
by her father, whose sordid desire for
wealth has led him beyond the confines of
civilization. Maybe the dear girl is pining
now for that fellow who was false, but
whom she is now glad to forgive l can
see the lovely creature, shivering in that
cold, bleak land, singing about the Cold,
chilly winds of December and longing
for sight of the Little Sunny South l
wonder how she ever got piano out there
If it takes letter from the 18th of May to
the 18th of June to get to Victoria, about
what time may l look for my money if
send this music?" and he walked off, pom
dering deeply over the complicated sit

Spirited Runaway.

Yesterday afternoon a team attached to
one og the soda wagons of the Union Ice
Company entered upon lively runaway at
the corner of Third and n streets, dashed
up \ street to Tenth, down Tenth to 0, and
thence to Thirteenth, where it was stopped
by M Menke. Mr.. Menke keeps butcher
shop on n street, near Tenth. When the
flying team passed his place he jumped
into passing wagon and asked the driver
to oyertake the runaways. 1t was lively
race, but the soda wagon was overtaken on
0 street, near Thirteenth. As they came
alongside Mr.. Menke jumped out of the
light wagon, climbed into the soda wagon,
and, gaining the reins, brought the fright
ened horses to stand-still. Fortunately
no other vehicles were encountered on the
way, and no damage was done.

Attempted Arson.

About I o'clock last evening Captain
karcher and officer Farrell arrested
Thomas O'Lin just as he was in the act of
setting fire to house occupied by Lizzie
Belmont, on L street, between Front and
Second. He went into the house and stole
lot of the woman's clothes, took them
down in the basement and stuffed them up
between some casing boards. Then he took
two large coal oil lamps and emptied the
contents on the clothing, and was about to
apply the match when the officers arrived
on the scene. He said that his object was
to get even on the woman. If the of
ficers had been a few moments later there
would have been lively conhsgration, as
all the buildings in the vicinity are wooden
structures and very dry.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
GAS EXPLOSION.
Narrow Escape of Children From In
slant Death.

Narrow Escape of Children From In
slant Death.
q Life before 10 o'clock yesterday morn
ing 2 terrific explosion of gas took place in
the building owned by J. H. Davine, Nos
724 and 725 X street, resulting in a good
deal Of damage to the walls and causing
the utmost CONSERVATION among the occu-
pants Of the building, most of whom, at
that hour, were women and children.
The lower part of the west half of the
building has been unoccupied for some
months. and yesterday morning q. Dupp
went there to clean up the place prepara-
tory 20 moving in. Parties residing up
stairs had complained that the gas was es-
Gaping somewhere, and a. NJ. Smith, the
plumber, was sent for and started to find
the leak. He went to a closet under the
staircase, where the gas meter is kept, and
struck . match, when a tremendous ex-
plosion took place, shaking the whole
building, cracking the walls and knocking
down the plasteriDg. 1t is something re-
markable that Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Dupp
were not both killed. AS it was, the plas-
tering came down upon Mr.. Dupp in great
chunks, cutting his head considerably and
bruisjng his body.
On the second floor the explosion almost
created 2 panic. The flames shot I'D
through The cracks in the flooring, burning
the carpet and displaclng some of the
boards. Fortunately, however the build
ing die not take fire. The lady who keeps
the clearinghouse was almost beside her
self with fright. Her little girl was sick in
bed and was so badly scared that she
jumped out of bed and ran screaming
through the hall. She could not be in
duced to return to the room even after the
danger was all over.
The most miraculous escape, however,
was IN No. 724 occupied as a variety store
by NJ. Stein. Mr.. STEMS children had only
g few moments before arisen from bed in
the back of the store. The ceiling came
down lpon the pillows in pieces large
enough to have killed the children in
stantiy i the explosion had taken place
while they were still in bed. As it hap
pened no one was injured except Mr. Dupp,
and his injuries were not of serious ma
ture.

Tho Tribunes, of Oakland, will be the
visiting club here tomorrow, and they
come with a determination to check the
Atlas in their victorious course. At the
last game played between these two clubs
the Atlas were made to play their best in

catcher and favorite here, will take charge
of Eohan's pitching. For the Atlas, Flint
will play first base, Ahern having retired on
account of slight misunderstanding with
Robertson, the Captain. The rest of the
nine will play their usual positions, and

THE TRUST INVESTIGATION.

Wholesalers Testify In Regard to Sugar
Trust Prices.
WASHINGTON March W.-James Mich
oils, of the firm Of Austin, Nichols & Co,
wholesale grocers, of New York, wa a
witness in the trust investigation. He
said that the firm purchased sugars prin.
.cipally from New York brokers and re-
fineries. 1t is not practicable for his firm
to procure sufficient sugars from other
sources than the trust. Large purchasers
have practically the same prices as
smaller ones. The Louisiana sugar crop
does not materially affect the prices. The
difference between trust prices and those
outside of the trust, was not large enough
to make it profitable to purchase outside.
Francis H. Leggett testified that his
firm bought almost wholly from New
York refineries, averaging about 1875, 600
barrels annually. Prices have advanced
about " cents per pound, but are now
about cent higher than in September.
The chairman asked Mr.. Camp il he
spoke as 8 protectiorist or free trader.
The witness replied that he was a pro-
tectionist. He said that a diminution of
the duty on refined sugar, without q cor
responding reduction ON raw sugar, would
kill the reflneries and the trust at the
same time.

night Annie Slsyback asked for a room
at Browns hotel, asking the landlady to
sleep with her. The two went to bed to-

morning she found the corpse of the girl
In her arms. The woman almost. went
crazy with fright. The deceased told
DR.. Murray that she had been forced to
remain over a day at Deer Lodge. While
on her way here the pain she was suffer-
ing was so severe that she could not
stand; that she had taken a large glassful
Of whisky every hour during the day, and
that inst before retiring had emptied a
half-pint flask. The general appearances
indicated that she had been dissipating,
and when she removed her dress she was
clad only In a mans shirt and trousers.
She is best known in Butte by her stage
name, May Preston. Personally she was
quite an attractive woman, being only
nineteen years old.
