The proprietor swept the coin intp

Duqucsnc looked steadily at the

guests seated around tle fireplace be-
came lent.
lyon are a liar!' said Dnqnesnc, in
a low, eve tone. These terrible
words meant something in Kentucky,
and the speaker knew it. He felt
%ncrvously for his pistols. They we're
missing. He had left them in his
room. The tavernkocpcr's movements
were as quick as if he had been
charged by an electric battery. He
jerked open his moncy-drawer, took
from it Il pistol, cooked il and covered
DuQucSnc. who stood m~otionlcss.

That appeal is never without its
effect in the old Commonwealth.

tired simultaneously. TIE landlords

and his weapon fell to the floor. Du-
qucsne stood unframed and quietly
exchanged his smok NJ pistol for one
of the loaded ones in his pocket. One
of the landlords brothers, without u

Yes; damn you!" exclaimed the

SAN FRANCISCO.

The San Francisco workings are still
in ore, and the recent strike is holding
its own. On the 200-foot level the sto-
ping OF high grade shipping ore from the
south crosscut raise was discontinued on
account of foul air, and the men put to
work driving ahead on the drift. On the
4OO-foot level the west drift has encoun-
tered kidneys of ruby silver ore through
the week. The superintendent places
little dependence beyond an indication
of ore ahead of the very broken ground
the heading is now in. On the east drift,
from the same crosscut a mar
row seam of quartz has come in on the
footwa]l. This working has plenty of
water. In the south crosscut the drift is
following footwall, with the country
rock placing itself to the fissure that this
drift is to cut at distance OF about 20
feet.
A carload of high grade ore is sacked
and ready for shipment.

Hamilton Carries the City for
nayor-Alm0st the Entire Rcpub-
lican Ticket Elected.

! A special to the Independent of Tues
day says of the Butte election on Mon
day last: The agony is over and the
city election which occurred to-day was
all that was expected of it, as being lively
and exciting, but it resulted in Water
loo for the democratic party. The cause
OF tho overwhelming defeat can only be
laid to the base treachery to his party OF
ex- Mayor William Owsley, who headed
the citizens ticket, followed by the full
republican ticket. Owsley's political fate
is securely sealed forever in Butte, for
the feeling against him to-day among the
democrats is very strong. Thanks to the
| respectable element of the democrats. the
ambitious Owsley was defeated for
mayor, while with four exceptions the en-
tire republican ticket was elected by
goou IudJUr1tlts. Ano wOrhlugnloil >

is the result Of the election:
For mayor-L. J. Hamilton (rep.), G64;
c. ". Newton (dem.), 336; G. F. Marsh
Qabor), 257; VIM. Owsley (cit1zen), 377
The total vote for mayor is 1854, which
falls about 400 short of the number of vo-
ters registered. Hamilton's plurality is
1s7.

BREWERS LOCK OUT BROKEN Up.
The brewers lockout, caused by the
boss brewers combining to break up the
Brewers Union, has received severe
blow. The Banner brewery having been
offered for sale,or controlling portion of
the stock, a syndicate, mainly of saloon
keepers, was formed, and the stock pur-
chased. The new owners organized by
electing G. Burkhauser president, A. J.
Reiner vice president and Alex. Darius
mont secretary and treasurer. All the
non-union employees were discharged and
union mon were substituted. It is now
said that the boss brewers pool will give
up its organization since its integrity is
broken. The new owners of the Banner
brewery will retail their own beer. and
say they can sell 100000 kegs year.

THE PEARL,

The Pearl company have commenced
work on their property, embracing the
Pearl and Elya mines, lying between the
Granite Mountain and San Francisco
Miners commenced yesterday to clean
out the tunnel, from which it is expected
to upraise to the surface and thus make
a shaft which at the commencement will
make the first or 100 foot level.
1t is conceded here and at Granite by
the best posted mining men that the
Pearl is one of the best showing mines in
this section, considering the amount of
work done on it, and success for it is pre-
dicted by all acquainted with the proper
ty. The machinery necessary to sink to
depth will soon be i'll place and work will
be vigorously prosecuted.
Our present railroad facilities and those
in contemplation may enable the Pearl
to gain the rank Of the dividend payers
speedily, as the ore taken out in old
times was good, and under the new order
of things would pay handsomely.
