a Rush to the Rich Placer Diggings of
Sweet Grass Hills.
MINSEAPoIIS, Mimi, March ia
Tribune special from Big Sandy, Mont,
reports great excitement there over the
development of gold mines in the Sweet
Grass hills, thirty-five miles northwest
of there. Miners in Eclipse gulch are
making $50 to $50 a day. Most of the
gold is from placer diggings, but blue
ore has been struck and the country is
full of prospectors. For week past
men have been fiocking there from all
over Montana and Dakota and with
out making adequate provision for their
sustenance. Supplies cannot be OBJ
tanned fast enough and a famine seems
imminent. The Sweet Grass hills COM
prise three buttes, varying in height
from Z 900 TO S.400 feet. Water and
timber abound in the east butte, but the
middle butte has neither. The surround
ing bottom lands contain small creeks.
The RICHEST placer diggings are Eclipse
gulch in the middle butte and Hazer
gulch in the east butte. Silver. copper,
iron and fine quality of marble have
been found, while coal is abundant on
Milk river and sage rock to the east.
Wages at the mines are from 81 a day
upward, but almost every ore is pros
pecting for himself

LONDON, March 19.-For some time
past a singer at the Trocadero Music
hall has nightly elected deafening APP
plause and repeated encores by his rem

that it threatened to end in a riot. Every
effort was made to restore order except
by complying with The demand of the
excited crowd, and finally the lights were

To Open Oklahoma.

WASHINGTON. March 19.--All the pa
pers prepared at the interior department
looking to the opening of Oklahoma ter
ritory are now before President Harrison,
and it is expected that within this week
he will issue proclamation opening the
country to settlement. At this time only
about 100000 acres of land will be
thrown open to settlement. The land
that will be affeced by the proclamation
lies in about the middle of the Oklahoma
country. The Chicago, Kansas and Ne
braska railroad, now in course of con-
struction, runs along its southwestern
border and the Southern Kansas railroad
through its eastern border. A commits
sion to treat with the Cherokee Indians
for the purchase of the Cherokee outlet
will, it is thought, be appointed shortly
after the proclamation is issued. BY the
terms of the law in regard to settlement
no one who takes possession of holding
prior to the issuance of the presidents
proclamation acquires any right. On
the contrary, by the express mandate OF
the law itself any one who makes settle.
ment prior to the proclamation of the
president not only forfeits his holding
but it is perpetually debarred from az
quiring title to land in the Oklahoma
country

The Sea Came Ashore.

BARNEGAT, N J., March 19.-The
storm tide did great damage all along
the beach. washing away the entire crop
of salt hay which had been stacked up
on the meadows. and tearing out the
railroad track for miles. AT point be-
low Harvey Cedars the track had been
lifted up bodily and twisted all out of
line. and several hundred yards of it had
been carried over against the telegraph
poles, which prevented it from being car
ried entirely away. In this vicinity the
tide covered the meadows to the depth of
foot or more. Several boats were torn
from their moorings and dashed against
the dock. They were all recovered by
some of the 'longshoremen, who breasted
the current. The branch road to Beach
Haven was badly cut out and damaged.
No trains can be run for months, per-
haps.

ooMMEMORATING THE COMMUNE

The Berlin Revolution and the Paris CONF

Music by Quaker City Revointionists.
''The Rising Sun of Liberty"
PHILADELPHIA, March 19.--Although
yesterday was ostensibly celebrated as
st. Patrick's day in this town, there was
decided predominance of the red over
the green last night, the occasion being
the celebration of the rising in Berlin on
March 49, 1S4S. and the anniversary of
the great Paris commune. The organi-
zation known as the workingmen's So
ciety was responsible for the racket. and
with red flags flying and the blare OF
trumpets they made things exceedingly
lively at Young Mannerchor hall, Sixth
and Vine streets.
The demonstration was the largest of
its kind ever held in this city, but with
the exception of the action of q few hot
heads the meeting was an orderly one
throughout. There were present dele
cations from almost every German sing
ing society in the city and long and
varied programme was given.
The most interesting feature of the
evenings entertainment was the execu-
tion of pantomime by thirteen scholars
of the Socialistic school. 1t was rep
resentation of "The Rising Sun of Lib
erty," intended to convey the meaning of
the principles upon which the Socialists
base their organization, "All for Each
and Each for AL"
The exercises closed by every one
standing and singing the "Arbeiter- Mar
seillaise" and shout of "Vive Ia Com
mune." During the evening there were
distributed about the building thousands
of copies of socialistic papers, among
them being Herr Most's New York So
cialist, which contained long article
commenting upon the day which was be-
ing celebrated and calling special atten-
ton to the principles of the society.
