othsrways will be sold at auction and as
the collection embraces many cost.

will be spirited and lively. The
contest between Thomas York and Ben
Tibbey came tos close last night. Mr.. York
proved to be the winner, having 5,512
votes to his creoit, with Mr.. Tibbey's score
resting at 2,309. The crowd which packed
the hall during the progress of the voting
was suhocatiDgly dense and the greatest
excitement prevailed. All was the best Of
good nature, however, and the contest was
devoid OF every feeling save that OF the
o friendly rivalry between the adhe-
rents OF the two gentlemen.

ously responded to their appeals for assist

mining elaine in Jefferson county, was in
the city yesterday. Mr.. Husselton has
again come into possession OF the Kitty
.O'Brien mine, he having only a short time
ago bought out the interest held by the
Gold Flint company. At present the mine
has a. fve-stamp mill on it. through which
about 400 tons OF ore have been run,
There are still many hundred toni of ore
in sight, which will be crushed as soon as
s more stamps are added to the mill,
which will be lone in the near future. The
ore 80 far taken from the Kitty is free mill
ing gold and silver, but it is thought 1t will
become baser when the water level ID
reached. The property is now developed
only by q tunnel, but q steam hoist win
soon be put up and the work OF sinking
commenced. The Kitty O'Brien is located
about twelve miles east Of Butte.
