The Black Hills Democrat at Rapid
City is non est, and in its stead is to ap-
pear staunch republican sheet to be
known as the Black Hills Union. Ed
itor Barrows ran the Democrat when
there was considerable revenue connected
with it and on the reduction of the vol
ume of said revenue, to all appearances,
sold out( p his snap to a good republic
can who will run it in the interest of the
'sins,' hoping thereby, no doubt, to re-
ceiye his share of the pap from the pres
ent administration. The gentleman pur-
chasing the paper knows nothing Of the
business, either literary or mechanical,
and as consequence Mr.. Barrows will
have editorial management s'temporari-
ly." Inasmuch as the last mentioned
gentleman can "aop'' as easily as cir
Gus performer and inasmuch as he has
done so several times in the past, this
latest sale( p looks, to man up tree,
as though it was merely another fake
to gather in little more of the public's
money via the land Office and, perhaps,
the state committee. We are of the
opinion, however, that the republicans of
this section are "on' to the Union with
its rank democratic business manager
and editor.

IA PAINTER. !"

The Deadwood Pioneer in speaking of
the success of A. J. Simmons with the
Rapid City Republican, says:
The success Of Mr.. Simmons is an
other illustration Of the fact that to be a
successful publisher it is not necessary
to be practical printer or even serve an
apprenticeship in the business manage
ment of a paper.
And thus referring to it's own business
manager, says further:
The person who made the best fnan-
cial success Of any publisher in the Hills
had no previous experience in the bust
ness, but dropped paint brush and
paper shears for the management of a
bankrupt paper and succeeded.
Judging from the typographical ap-
pearance of the Pioneer since the advent
of this manager the paint brush was
taken along with him and has been in
constant use ever since.

J. r. Buchanan, general passenger
agent of the F., E. & M. V. was in this
city for few hours last Friday on his
homeward journey from Deadwood,
This is his first visit to Sturgis in four
years and he expressed himself as very
agreeably surprised with our city and
noted great advancement in municipal
improvements. Mr.. Buchanan stated
that his company desired to be on good
terms with every section along its
lines and would be only too happy to do
anything and everything within its
power for the benefit of Sturgis and vi
cinity. He is making a special effort to
have the Harvest excursions" OF this
fall successful in the highest degree,
and desires the assistance of everyone in
the matter. The road will try and pre-
vail upon the people of the east to come
out to the Hills this fall and see the
crops and country in this section. Mr..
Buchanan would be pleased to have all
living here, who have friends elsewhere,
send the names and addresses Of such
friends to him and in return he will send
them circulars and folders containing
all information concerning this section
of the west. In another column will be
found an advertisement concerning these
harvest excursions and we would call
the attention of our readers to its pro-
visions.

AMUSEMENTS.
A Great Audience To see the spider and
Fly-Coming Attractions.

A Great Audience Ia see the spider and
Fly-Coming Attractions.
The biggest audience of the season was
present at Ming's opera house last evening
TO witness the performance of the Spider
and Fly. II was gorgeous production.
The plot amounts 20 nothing more than a
vehicle for the introduction Of variety Of
clever songs, graceful dances, pretty cos
tunes and several excellent specialties.
The best work of the evening was done by
the pantomine clowns, the Dare Brothers.
Their acts contained snone of the old tine
chestnutty features that brought pantomine
work into unpopularity. IL would be diili-
cult TO imagine a more refined and anus
ing gymnastic performance than
their horizontal bar acts in
the second act. The other
features of the evening we're Of unusual ex-
cellence, notably the terpischorean speciality
of Mons Oreste and Mile. Dorst. Their
dancing possessed not only an airy grace,
but it contained many original parts. IL
was one of the cleyerest things on the pro-
gramme and would have been much more
effective If the musicians had understood
their music. The singing of Miss Hilda
Thomas caught popular favor and she was
recalled again and again. She has a sweet
melodious voice, something that IL not
often found III an entertainment that ap-
peals so largely TO the eye for approval.
iiss Bessie Cleveland AS Progress, queen
of the fairies, possesses not only beauty of
form and face. but is Il pleasing actress and
singer. The other members of the cast
were capable people. A matinee will be
held this afternoon ana the engagement
will be finished this evening.

The Grismer- Davies Company.

Tomorrow evening Mr.. Joseph Grismer
and Miss Phoebe Davies, with an excellent
company, will open brief season at Ming's
opera house, The Tigress will be the open
ing attraction. Concerning this the San
Francisco Music and Drama says:
The Grismer production of''The Tigress,' -
a dramatization by Ramsey Morris from
his own novel, "Crucify Her." during the
week at the Bush, has met with the success
it deserved. There are many things in
"The Tigress" which bring up recollections
of Mrs. Lsngtry's "As In Looking Glass;
but if a comparison of he two plays is care
fully made Mr.. 6rismer's purchase IL found
to be much better of the two, il being
stronger in its acting, and all of the best
points are brought out at the right time and
place. Il is play that will interest and
please the large mass of theater-goers. Mr..
Grismer and his entire company may be
complimented on the way the drama is han
died. They work in harmony without n
noticeable hitch, and carry out their indi-
vidual parts very satisfactorily. Miss Dayss
as the dower.girl and afterwards goyerness,
is TO be commended ON her good dramatic
work

The Smelters Have Resumed and
There Is Plenty Of Concentrates
and Dry Ores.
The Fires Believed to Be Out and
the Mines to Be Opened
Saturday.
A Prediction as To what the Recovery ei
Two of the Bodies viii
Reveal.

The Anaconda company has again resumed
operations, a supply of coal having been re-
sei,ed. and work will continue as long as
the railroad company supplies coal. There
is sufficient concentrates.on hand at the Up
Dor works to last forty days, and enough ore
can be extracted from the Chambers syndi-
cate mines to keep the furnaces going for an
indefinite period. The working force at
these mines has been increased. The reports
that dogs have been sent down into the Ana
sonda aud st. Lawrence mines is not true.
but Superintendent Carroll has four dogs
which hekill let down one at a time, and if
they coniSback alive after being there one
day the mines will be opened on Friday or
Saturday next, and the first man TO descend
the shaft will be Michael Carroll, the eili-
cient superintendent, who would not permit
man 10 go where he would not 90 himself,
There is no truth in the statement that the
Union Pacific is in collusion with the
lake producers 10 interfere with the Ana
conda company in its work of turning out
copper. This is the exact state of affairs
with the company and II is predicted by
come that when the four bodies are taken
out of the Anaconda mine, there will be
two whose remains will not be identified
and the question will be. who are theyT
quorum could not be secured yesterday
at tho meeting of the directors of the Iron
Mountain mining company, but or
ders were given for the purchase
OF new boiler, two Burleigh drills and Il
pump. Water was struck in the winze Of
tunnol No. 4. II possible regular ore ship
ments will he made during the winter as it
is believed the river will freeze hard enough
10 bear the weight of sleighs. The Iron
Mountain is now looked upon as a great
mine, and it surely has an unbeaten record.
Work continues on the o. X. d N. and a
small but rich streak Of ore is being opened
up.
General Manager Allen, of the East Helena
smelter, reports that the smelter is daily
turning ont all the bullion that four fur
naces can produce, that there il no lack of
ore and new shipments are being daily re-
ceiyed.

DEATH OF MRS. WEIGH.
An Estimable Lady Passes Away, Leaving
a Large Family.

An Estimabie Lady Passes Away, Leaving
Large Family.
One of the saddest deaths that has oc-
CURED in Helena was that of Mrs. Mary
Alice welch, who passed away at ii O'Clock
Sunday night after period Of intense suf-
fering, due to lump or tumor in the throat,
which has been growing for over three years
and finally caused suffocation, She leaves
six children, ranging from 2 to IL years of
age, and ON saturday morning gave birth TO
daughter. For several weeks she had been
unable TO lie down. Sunday morning her
condition was dangerous and the filling in
tle throat was such that the best medical
aid could not relieve her suffocating agony.
Kind friends remained with her constantly
during her last hours, several sisters Of
charity rendered every assistance aud the
Catholic priest administered the last sncra-
ments. The announcement of her death
caused a shock among a large circle
of friends, and expressions of deep sym
pathy were rendered her devoted husband,
Daniel j. Welch, who is nearly distracted
over the loss of his beloved wife and mother
of his SIX young children. Her death IS in-
deed sad one, and has spread gloom
over the household which has been happy
one for eighteen years.
Mrs. Welch was the daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. james Ii. Brown, Of Deer Lodge. She
was born in Circe. Ark, Oct l3, 1873, aud
arrived in Montana with her parents when
but years Of age, in 1870 she went TO Ten
nessee for u year and in 1871 she returned
to Montana and on Oct. IL Of that year she
WAS married to Daniel J. Welch. She was
a woman of many amiable and endearing
qualities and noted for her many deeds OF
charity. She was noble woman, devoted
wife and fond mother. She WAS known and
admired throughout the territory. having
resided in Deer Lodge, Missoula, Butte and
Helena. The remains will be taken 10 Deer
Lodge for interment on the 7;45 u. IN. train
and will be accompanied by friends of the
family.

THEY WERE DISCHARGED.
A Number OF yagrancy Charges that DID
Not stick.


In Judge Sanders court yesterday there
we're several young men before his honor
on charge of vagrancy, a jury trial was
had and the men were discharged. Only
one case was tried OF a young man who is a
property owner in this city, but follows
gambling as his occupation. During the
last election he was appointed by the demo-
Gratis in the second precinct of the First
ward TO see that the republicans did not run
in any illegJl votes. He was ousted once,
but the county attorney decided that
he had right to be there. He claims
that his arrest was the result of spite
and also says that the sergeant positively
refused TO permit him to secure bail. He
was thrown in a cell and after being in
there three hours one of his friends was run
in ON similar charge. The man had over
500 in his pocket and deposit check for
$500 on the First National Bank. He gave
the sergeant 500 for their release, and after
an expensive trial yesterday. which the city
will have 10 bear, the men were discharged.
