THE BARKER TO BE WORKED.
Baker Camp Will Renew De-
xelOpment Work.

The Owners of the First Location in the
Baker Camp Will Renew De-
velopment Work.
In the flush days of Barker, which, as
old residents know, covered a period
from 1880 to 1884, when the Clendenin
Smelling company failed, the Barker and
Grey Eagle lodes were considered the best
in the camps, and mainly because more
work had been done on them than on
any other property. In the latter part of
that period Mr.. Paris Gibson of this city
secured a bond on the mines and expend-
ed many thousand dollars In their devel-
opment. He was not able to sell them,
however, on account of the lack of trans
portation facilities, and the black eye the
camp had received, and as a consequence
the mine has lain idle since that time.
The present owners of these properties
are Paris Gibson, G. X. Larabie, T. G.
Power and the First National banks of
Benton and Helena, the banks securing
by recent purchase the interests of the
old Smelter company. We are pleased
have made arrangements for the extern
sive development of the mines, and it
will be no long period until they will
show up a great silver-lead bonanza.
A practical mining engineer will be
employed to take charge Of the work and
direct it in a proper way. Needed ma
chinery will be purchased and a large
force of men employed. 1t is the inten-
ton to begin at once and make the Bar
ker a heavy ore producer at the earliest
practicable day,

Realty In Brisk Demand.

Great Falls real estate is on the keen
jump, and especially is this so of outside
acres. Two sales have beer concluded
within the past "a hours that aggregate
nearly 100000, and both transactions are
spot cash.
One of the sales is important, not only
on account Of the large sum involved, and
the price per acre paid, but as we'll or ac'
count of the prominence and influence
of the purchaser, who is no less distin-
gulshed a parsonage than DR.. William
Seward Webb, the head of the Wagner
Palace Car company of New York, and a
son-ln-iaw of the late VIM. H. Vanderbilt.
DR.. Webb stopped at Great Falls last
summer when making his flying trip
across the continent, and he said then
this would be one of the great cities of
the wonderful northwest. He has now
shown his faith by deed as we'll as word,
having purchased of Barnes & Collect of
this city 80 acres of land near this city,
and known as the Smelter addition, for
$4,000 in clean cut New York exchange.
This is at the rate of $582.50 an acre. The
land is east of the city and about a mile
and a half from the Montana Smelling
company's works.

for $4,000 cash. This land lies north

JUDGE HuY's ADDITION.
Today Judge Geo. E. Huy filed in the
office of the clerk and recorder the pla,
of his addition to the city of Great Falls
and this property will now be put on the
market. This addition adjoins the town.

DEAR SIR: In regard to a report cir

in the town of Monarch to the effect that
they have an understanding with the
railway company as to delaying the con
construction of the road beyond that point

construction would have been we'll un.
