 Memphis, July 3l.
 Capt. Jack Bowling with a band of IS soldiers, known as the "immor- tai 49 Irishmen," were stationed at Sabine Pass, Tex, toward the close of the war, when a federal gunboat steamed under the little fort. Hear ing nothing frem the enemy the fed erals imagined the fort deserted. Capt. Bowling gave orders to his men to remain quiet until the gun boat came within stones throw, when he gave the word to fire. It is said that only one gun responded, the ball entering a portholc and eX- ploding the magazine, which sunk the war ship. As soon as the feder- als could could, they surrendered, threw down their arms and marched up the hill. At this time Capt. Dow ling had only one charge of powder and one ball left for his artillery. With a handful of men, he drove the captured federals in trimph to Houston before the other gunboats could come to their assistance. The federal authorities at Washington were so enraged and Inundated that they ordered the report of the en- nagement stricken from the war rec ords, and it does not appear in any official publication. Bowling died some years ago. Capt. Jack White, is at present city marshal of Houston, Texas, and presumably the most fearless man in the Lone Star State is perhaps the only one of the l9 Jeff to tell the tale, The rest are dead ol scattered.

 The time spent in mourning for the dead might be spent in making the living happy.

OUR SUMMER BIRDS.
When first .,Iopo thu o,o,,,,.,,l ,,.,.

When first along the woodland way We saw the leaves turning To vivid gold, to brown and gray,
 And scarlet rich and burning: When frost first whtcncd vale and hill And taircst flowers had faded, When first a breath of winters chill Our kingdom had invaded, AcrOs, the hills, where shadows gray And shadows pink were lying, To sunnicr climcs, far, far,awav,
 Our summer birds went flying. When life VII, sad as life could be.
 They came with sweetcr singing, When springs first kiss was on the lea, A sense of gladnes- bringing. They built their nest in tall old trees, Their calls filled each vast hollow. Were ever days more glad than these, When came the wren and swallow, Once more are dusky dalcs about
 By rowing blue birds haunted Once more the robins songs ring out Through woods that seem enchanted.

 But even in that trying moment she noticed the glittering pin which fastened Lydia's lace bonnet strings "a quaint device of tiny diamond and remembered what the girl had once said about a fortune teller and a horseshoe.

THE MINES OF MONTANA,
Conflicting Reports as to the Alleged
Strike in the Elizabeth
Mine.
A Denial From the Superintend-.
ent, Who Says the Report
is False.
Ncws Of the Bi-MetaIlic Extension, Fast
Granite. Southern Cross and
Other Mines.

Az the days pass along more and more in
terest is manifested in tho development on
the Elizabeth lode. The stock has reached
$o.7O per share which is equal to 11.3b for
West Granite. The latest new from 1T.
Louis is a telegram from Acting Superin-
tendent Weir, who wired the company that
the reports regarding the strike we're IN
true; but that water WAS coming in freely
last Saturday. The news Of the water rush,
says the Republic, which was taken advan-
tage of by certain brokers to bull the stock to
$3.50 Ia said to have been simply the cutting
of a small stringer in the south Of the GROSS
cut, and which Is considered Of very little
importance, as it 10 conceded by those who
are acquainted with the situation at this
mine that when the Bi-Metallic vein is cut,
if it ever is, it will be to the north, and not
in the south cross cut. lit is true, as certain
was cut last week in the south cross-cut, IL
was considered of 80 little Importance by
the superintendent rs to be not even men
toned in his telegram. he simply denying
that n strike had been made. Notwith-
standing this denial, there were plenty OF
buying orders on the market Yesterday, and
the decline that get in early was soot!
checked, and the market, which opened
with sales at S2.55 and fell on free selling
to 2.47n, reacted on good buying and sold
up to 81. sen. closing strong with that bid
on the board and on the street, with sellers
at *2.55. Trading, although devoid OF ex-
citing features, was very good when the
general dullness of the market is taken into
consideration, and sales were large. a total
of 5000 shares changing hands on the reRu-
lar board.
Now comes the Philipsburg Mail, which
asserts that. contrary to deniaIs, q strike
has been made. It says: At AZ feet in the
shaft, where the cross-cut was commenced,
the miners were driven out last Saturday
by water, and until the new Knowles pump
was put to work Sunday morning no further
underground work was dene. It now seems
that the long looked-for lead has been
struck in the Elizabeth. At the $50 level q
crOss-cut WAS Iun south for the purpose OF
encounterjng the lead which everybody who
WINGED was there. 1t is said that the vein
which was struck last week has a fine ap-
p~earance and has every indication of being
rich, though nothing definite as to its
assay value can be ascertained, as
the officials of the company at this end are
reticent and will divulRe nothing. The
strike. however, has leaked out, notwith-
standing the great care exercised to keep
it quiet. OF course further development
will be required to determine whether the
vein is the bonanza expected and also if it
is large enough to be profitable to work,
although from what little intelligence can
be cleaned, the ore body is three
feet in width. which if not an exag-
g~eration is pretty good itself, admitting
that the ore assays pretty we'll.

The Cross.

Some days ago the Butte Miner printed
an article rejecting somewhat upon the
Southern Cross. The mine was reported to
be shut down, and that stockholders were
anxious to give their holdings away to who
ever would take them. Ben f. Harris. Of
this city. president of the company, ad.
dressed the following card to the editor of
the Butte paper: st strikes me as strange
you should allow you columns to be used
for the purpose of rs wanton an attack as
appeared on our property in yonr issue of
the 31st. The article is full of inaccuracies
and falsehoods. The property is not closed
down, nor has it been for any space of time
for upward of eighteen months. We are
now taking out and shipping ore.
l will further remark the statement that
"a few years g a moneyed company made
the Southern Cross people an offer of 80
cents a share is absolutely untrue: also the
inference that the stockholders find their
holdings a burden"

Every day develops new and important
facts relative to this new and enterprisine
company. They nave every reason to feel
jubilant over the results of the past weeks

inches Of ore that will assay high in silver

shaft numerous %stringers are being passed
through. indicating the presence of a big
lead on the property. The development is
being watched with a good deal of anxiety,
and the stock is selling rapidly at SOC.
At ITO feet in the shaft another ~crosscut
WAS commenced last night. and it ia
thought the vein will show up handsomely
at that depth when reached.-Maii.

clever company of eccentric comedians and

ures-new music and songs from the latest
new comic operas, new dances from the
new burlesques. and new and ludicrous
scenes, situations and sayings conceived by
Mr.. Daniels himself. No comedian Of these
times is as clever at this sort of work as
Frank Daniels. In the construction of
farcical incidents and the introduction of
original and catchy sayings, he hardly has

A New Mining Company.

Major Martin Maginnis came over from
Butte yesterday, where he is acquiring large
mining interests. new company has been
temporarily organized with Major Magin-
mis-, president; Michael Carroll, general
superintendent of the Anaconda mines. as
vice president; Frank E. Corbett, secretary,
and Banker M. b. Browniee, treasurer.
Marcus Daily and L.. G. Phelps, of Helena,
are also member of the organization. The
object is to orerate and develop the Snow
Drift and Silver Lick claims located Just
north of the Rainbow lode upon which are
situated tho Alice, Mouiton. Magma Charta.
Amy and Silversmith and other great silver
mines of the district in Walkerville. The
Glen9arry shaft is on the lead which runs
through the Snow Drift. The company's
claims are in a locality that preclude any
possibility of a failure to encounter a large
body of silver-bearing ore. A great deal of
time has been spent in acquiring title to
the diverse interests, but now that these
have all been settled the new mp will
soon begin development work. Superin-
tendent Ben Tibbey, of the Parrot works,
and Superintendent Kellar. OF the Blue
Bird company, are also stockholders in the
new company.
