THE NE VS. IN T
Enthusiastic Bomb Firing and Cheering
at the Theatre.

The news of statehood for Montana wa,
| discounted in Butte at a comparatively
early hour Wednesday. The news became
q certainty about 10 O'Clock, as the Cit,
Council was wallowing in the mire of TIT
everlasting alley in block 50. Severa
startling explosions woke the echoes out
side, and Officer Jordan, who wa,
resting from his official duties OF
the day force by listening
to the concentrated wisdom of the city
fathers, jumped from the calm slumber O
a seat in front of the warm stove to a con
dition Of rerspiring activity, and dashed al
a break-neck pace down the stairs to the
sidewalk. A number of the other specta
tors in the Council chamber followed suit
but when it was found tn be only Sol Levy
OF the Sideboard giving vent to his patri
otto fervor through the explosive medium
of bombs, they returned one by one as
soon as they had exhausted SOILS forbear,
ance and ~iberality.
The news came to this Office definitely in
the following telegram from Montana's
handsome delegate:
WASHINGTON, February 2O.-[To The
Butte Miner. IL salute two hundred thous
and sovereign people and send the glad It'd
ings OF our admission into the Union.
j.. K. TooLE.
AS soon as received at this Office the tele.
gram was taken up to the theater where Miss
Caroline Cages company was playing
pearl OF Savoy" with excellent effect to a
fine audience. Manager Mcguire lost no
time in stopping the play and read the teIe.
gram to the audience from the foot-lights.
The effect was electrical. Men, women and
children stood up with one accord and
cheered until the echoes rang again. Such
enthusiasm would hardly have been sup.
posed possible.
Everywhere men were jubilant over the
result. The iubilation of several found
vent in the anne way as that OF Sol Levy.
Abe Heyman poured his prophetic soulinto
his stock Of bombs left over from the last
Republican iollifcation of the campaign,
and blew himself in in a totally reckless
way. An enthusiastic member 0 1.-THE MINER
force found vent for his exuberance in what
he could induce Abe Heyman to part with
in the way of bombs, and the way the win

Among the people of to-day, there are
few indeed, who have not heard OF the
merits OF Prickly Ash Bark and Berries
as a household remedy. Teas and drinks
have been made of them for centuries, and
in hundreds OF families have formed the
sole reliance in rheumatic and kidney dis
eases. Prickly Ash Bitters now take the
place of the Old system and is more bene-

ii MOUNTAINEER,
TO J. A. c.

His form erect, with shaggy brow
And broad and bony shoulders,
His rifles click sends messengers quick
OF death DER streams and boulders,
A lofty fir, with slanting boushs
For his cabin forms a shelter,
From summer'sh heat and winters SHOWS
And wind and stormy weather.
The hghtning's CLEAN and thunder's peal
To him means naught of danger;
His latch-strins sways with every breeze,
Alike for friend and stranger.
Through canyons deep where echoes sleep
He seeks for game-his food.
On mountain top midst snow and rock
His faneies love to brood.
The winds that brush the forest leaves
To him are love and God.
No busy street he longs to greet
The wilderness he'll trod.

ITS FIFTH BIRTHDAY.
The Forest City Gun Club Celebrates
It's Anniversary.

The Forest City Gun Club celebrated its
fifth anniversary yesterday by gun shoe t
between members of the three clubs of the
city. About fifty members were present
The shoot took place on Hutchinson Island,
the grounds of the Forest City Club. Shoot
ing began in the morning at 10 O'Clock and
continued until dark. Refreshments were
served at all times during the day. The
weather was fine, and altogether the occa-
sion was most pleasant one. The shooting
was all around good. Every member made
a good score. In a team contest it was de-
cided that the member making the best
score should appoint those who will take
part in the contest at st. Simon's encamp-
ment and be captain of the team. George
Deter made the best score, and he win
appoint the team in day or two.
About fifteen members of the Forest City
Club win go. Arrangements will be made,
if possible, with the Savannah, Florida

at reduced rates. If the road cannot make
reduced rates, the members of the club will
go by steamer.

a SAIL IN THE AIR.
Aeronaut Perry's Dizzy Flight from
Concordia Park.

SOuCOTQld K.
Aeronaut Perry made another jump from
his balloon yesterday over Concordia park.
He went up about 5000 feet and drifted
southeastward, landing in bean patch to
the right of and close to where he landed
two weeks ago. The balloon was inflated
in twenty minutes, and at $50 it went up.
Somebody gave the aeronaut bottle Of
wine, and when he was at the highest point
in the air he uncorked it and drank it.
dropping the bottle. The crowd saw every
movement of the aeronaut and it cheered
him heartily.
The weather was fine for an ascension.
About 500 people were on the grounds and
watched the balloon rise. Prof Perry
wanted to beat his record, which is 1000
feet, but he said last night the condition of
the atmosphere did not admit of it. He
claims to be the only aeronaut who has
record of 1000 feet with a hot-air balloon.
Baldwin made an ascension of 10000 feet
in 1887 with gas balloon, but he has never
made an ascension of 1000 feet in hot-air
balloon,
Prof. Perry has patent on a pin which
he uses in disconnecting his parachute from
the balloon, which he claims is invaluable
1t is likely that the next ascension will be
made at Montgomery on June 20.

"BILLEE TAYLOR" A GO.
The Btou Company Gives the Opera
for All 1t Is Worth.

The Btou Company Gives the Opera
for ALI 1t Is Worth.
The third performance of the Bijou Opera
Company last night was as much of sue
cess as that on the opening night. Not ali
the seats were occupied, but the audience
was large and representative one. The
performance was Solomon's comic opera
"Billee Taylor.n The plot, as every
body knows, is simple, but the
chief characters are strongly drawn. Many
of the scenes are striking, and the, opera
throughout was entertaining. The leading
role was played by Mr.. Alexander Bell.
The comical acting Of Mr.. Leonard as
Grab" the village schoolmaster, was
highly appreciated. His singing of the
popular song, "a Villain of the Deepest
Dye" was well rendered and well received,
and repetition was demanded.
Mr.. Henderson as ben ssBaracle," the
boatswain, fully sustained his reputation as
a good actor, but his voice was rather
husky. His singing of the well-known bal
lad, "All on Account of Eliza" made ia
vorable impression and received an encore.
Miss Marie Bell essayed the part of
Phoebe and though she did not display
her vocal powers she was fascinating, and
in the gentler scenes especially her acting
gave the greatest pleasure.
Miss Matte Webb, as "Arabella,n cap
tivated the audience with her acting and
singing in that charming character.
The chorus girls presented the appear
ance of fair crew of sailor lads with their
maritime costumes and sailor hats. The
soldiers made hit by arrogating to them
selves the name of the Savannah Guards
and when ordered to present arms they re-
oeived special instructions to "do as they
did yesterday"
At the matinee the popular "Mikado"
was presented to small but appreciative
audience. Mr.. Leonard made decided hit
as the "Mikado.n The "Three Little
Maids" were Misses Bell, James and Webb.
The Bohemian Girl" win be given to-
night, with Miss Bell in the role of
airline"
