DASHED 10 DEATH.

BUTTE CITY, Mont, Nov. 4-The worst
mining accident of the year took place at
the Anaconda mine this morning when
seventeen miners were killed in a cage
going down the shaft Midnight, the
time to shift gangs of men, had come, and
cage full of miners returning from work
stepped out into the open air Their
places were taken by nineteen men, who
were TO take up the work they had just
abandoned, and the cage was started to-
ward the depths below. The rope had
been unwound but a couple of times from
the slowly revolving windlass, when there
was sudden snap. A cry of horror arose
from the shaft in which the cage had but
a moment before disappeared The rope
had broken, and the cage, with its niue
teen inmates, was precipitated TO the bot
tom of the mine.
1t was some little time before any assist
ance conld be sent them, as the shaft
down which they had plunged to death
was useless and other ways of getting at
the place where they had fallen were
roundabout. Fortunately there was some
help for the dead and dying in the mine
itself A number of miners, who were
through work and waiting to be relieved,
were at the bottom of the shaft waiting
for the cage TO take them out Amidst
them, narrowly missing some, the cage
dashed. 1t broke and before their eyes
were the mangled bodies of the compan-
ions whom they were awaiting. There
WAS little, however. that could be done.
OF the nineteen men who had made the
fearful ride, seventeen were dead, their
forms crushed out of all sembance to those
of human beings, while the two who were
yet breathing bad no chance of recovery.
This mine is the largest in the territory.

THE cHocTAw CLAIM.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4-The Choctaw del
egates-Governor Wilson Jones, Green
McCurtain and Thomas d. Ainsworth-
feel very good over the prospects. They
have received information which makes
them confident of getting their share OF
the s., 900, zoo appropriation just as soon as
the treasury preliminaries can be arranged.
The three-quarters interest In the appro-
priation is TO be given today in the form
of draft on the New Orleans sub
treasury, according to their informa-
tion, and they expect to start home
with it intact in few days This, IL true,
is bad news for the lobbyists who expected
the Choctaws to draw the money in big
currency and scatter about quarter of
million of it right here in Washington.
There are about thirty individuals who
claim TO have been of great assistance IN
getting the appropriation through. These
persons insist that they were promised
from 81. 600 to S.. GOO apiece for their inf1u
ence. Fully half of them got into the deal
by threatening to oppose the bill unless
they were taken care of. The present
Choctaw delegates who are not the
ones with whom the lobby dickered last
winter, say that their lawyers will be paid,
but that the lobbyists, especially those
who were promised sums to keep quiet,
will get left. One-fourth of the s.. 900, 600
goes to the Chickasaws, who have not sent
a fter their share, but have asked to have
the draft sent them. The president has
been strongly inclined to refer the appro-
priation back to congress for further &C
ton, but the Choctaws think he has con-
Guided to let the payment be made with
out further legislation.

Hnndsnna ParasoIs.

Parasols used at fashionable summer re-
sorts are things of beauty. Some are
strewn with flowers, and nearly all trim
med with frills of gauze. The handles in
many instances are of Dresden china or
mother-of-pearl. One very elaborate para
sol composed of white chiffon and lace is
showered over with imitation diamonds
Another made of the same materials is
adorned with two huge gold and white
butterflies. A third has lilies of the valley
strewn over it. A pretty parasol of light
blue chiffon is decorated with festooned
founces and tiny punches of forgetme-
nots. The newest en- toutcas have gold
borders. A rather smart one of pink silk
is bordered with SPIDERS web lace.

VICTORIA, B. c.. Nov. 4-The steamer
Sussex, from Japan, brings word that five
English naval officers on leave met with
four Americans, all brothers, named Cas-
Teton, from Philadelphia, and together
formed a plan to climb the summit of
FujiyamI the sacred mountain of japan.
The guides at the end of two days threat
ened to commit suicide if the party did not
turn back, and, finding that the threat
had not the desired effect. each, with a
stroke of a sharp knife, disem boweled him
self. The youngest of the Castleton broth
ers, boy of Is, Immediately pulled out a
revolver and blew out his own brains
Siekened by the fearful scene, the rest of
the party turned back and descended the
mountain, taking with him young Castle
toms body. They were forced to leave it
behind after the first day, and, after re-
peating the burial service of the English
church, they threw it into glacier crack
several hundred feet deep and left it there.

NELSON AT THE FINISH OF HIS 2:1OSl MILE

NELSON AT THE FINISH OF HIS 2:10s MILE
From an instantaneous photograph
As was to be expected these superb prizes
brought hundreds of entries to the famous
kite shaped track-the fastest, it is said, in
the world. Record smashing was the or
der of the meet
In the event par excellence of the meet,
the race for the 5-year-old stake Of 5000,
Nancy Hanks, with Allerton and Margaret
S as competitors, made the heats in PIP,
2:12% and 2:1S respectively. These are the
fastest three heats ever trotted in a race on
any track in the world. Monbars beat the
2-year-old stallion record, made by Regal
Wilkes in 2:20sl, by going a mile in go.
Faustine made the three fastest heats ever
trotted by 3-year-old stallion in race,
taking them in 2:1s71l, Ply and 2:1s15. The
great Nelson came to the home of Axtell
and Allerton, his associates in the trium-
virate of speed, and equaled what was
then the worlds stallion record, made by
himself, by covering mile in 2:10sl.
Not many days later on the same track
Allerton wrested from Nelson his hard
earned worlds laurels by covering a mile
in 2:10, but Nelson did not allow Allerton
to long claim supremacy, for on Sept. Is
at Grand Rapids, Mich, the great Maine
stallion was driven by his owner, @. II. Mel
son, in 2:10 also. Then came the greatest
triumph of the kite shaped track. Sept.
10 Allerton lowered his record to 2:O9H,
thus again taking first place, for time at
least.
How natural it is in considering the ex-
traordinary achievements on the indie
pendence track to associate them in q
casual way with some strong, directing
personality. In this instance such per-
