From Fridays Daily.

Emmett r. Carroll, general manager of
the Neihart Mining company, is in the
city. A shaft in their mill broke last
week and the mill is stopped temporarily.
The development work, however, will be
continued.
Yesterday David Rice, our county as
SCISSOR, signed a bond on his interest in
two mining properties, about 80 miles
souSh Of Leadville, Colorado. These are
interests which he acquired several years
ago. The bond, if taken up, calls for the
payment Of $4,000.
At noon yesterday various thermome-
ters showed that it was hot. Sinclair's
registered 102, Churchill g. Webster's SO,
Hotchkiss g. Hawkins 80, Phil Gibson's
104, Park hotel SO. The two highest
were exposed to the morning sun. At 8
p. M. the average temperature was 81.
Chas, Berg, the register of the new
land Office at Lewistown, lives at Livings-
ton, where he is the proprietor and
manager of a saloon. and Q. W. CookA the
receiver, Is one OF the wool growers of
Meagher county. They ought to be able
to manipulate the land business in the
new district in frst-class shape.
The Monarch Townsite company have
sold 10 lots. within the past two days. A
discovery of a lead Of mineral within one
mile of the town has somewhat stiffened
prices. The lead found assays only 8 on.
in silver at the surface, but the forma-
ton is SO good that q company has been
formed and a prospect shaft will be
sunk.
j. w. Simpler, the Central venue
photographer, has Just completed some
fine views of Great Falls taken from the
point west Of town. The scene embraces,
both the wagon and railroad bridges
across Sun river, and the Missouri river
for a distance of three miles, the two
bridges across the Missouri, the Great
Northern shops and yards, the entire
city, the Montana Smelter, six miles to
the east and the Highwood mountains, 40
miles east. The picture is very clear cut
and it is certainly the best birds eye
view of Great Falls and vicinity ever
made.
George STEEL has the Endorsement of
Representative Carter and the two fraud
ulent senators for the appointment as
agent at the Blackfoot agency, Major
Catiin having resigned. Mr.. Steel re-
Gently received information from Wash
ington that opposition to his appointment
had developed, and it Is dificult to un.
derstand whence it came, unless some
Helena man has bobbed up as u candi-
date and the delegation, Legitimate and
fraudulent, Is seeking some means of
shelving Mr.. Steell. In this community
all are anxious, without regard to politics,
to see the latter appointed.

Destroyed Her son-soap.


One OF the occupants OF rhe Good
cottage, near Lake Gervais, on July Is.
an elderly lady, was very fond OF
taking care OF fowls, and had raised
nearly hundred chickens and ducks,
says the Pioneer Press. These were all
killed by the storm. The lady had also
made nice lot OF soft soap, OF which
she was very proud. The soap had been
left on board by the side of the house
and, Of course. was carried away by the
wind.
The occupants OF the house, 10 will be
remembered, took refuge in the cellar
when the storm was seen coming. All
wore more or less injured and their
clothing torn from their bodies. 1t was
nearly half an hour before all were re-
leased, more dead than alive. The
lady spoken of was half unconscious
and the moment she was taken from the
cellar she took one glance at the work
OF the tornado, threw up her hands, and
exclaimed:
"Oh, where are my ducks and my
chickens, and where is my nice soft
soap?"
Tier soft soap has probably dissolved
in Lake Gervais, but the remains Of her
ducks and chickens were found here anG
there within a radius Of a mile or more
from the house. The idea that tor
nado coHld pluck the feathers from a
fowl as clean as could the most accom-.
plished chefhas been laughed at. butsome
OF the chickens and ducks belonging 70
the Good family were stripped Of every
feather. But that was not the only re
rSsriIable thing about them
Some of the chickens found nearly
a mile from the house had their necks
stretched TO remarkable length, the
necs1s OF some, it is said by those
who saw them. being at east q
foot long. Another incident Of the
storm is that one OF the ladies who took
refuge in the cellar was almost covered
with oats, the sharp needles OF which
penetrated her clothing and stuck to the
skin. The husband OF the lady vouches
for This occurrence, aud says that it took
nearly half an hour 70 remove the oats.
