yesterday whether he had ever made
any money in silver mines and he repli.

the figures. Among the mines he
bought was the Anaconda mine, for
which he paid, think $4,000. 1t was
begun as a silver mine, bat after running
down 100 feet the lead developed into
one OF the biggest copper veins on
record. Up to this time not much atten.

you any adequate idea Of the enormous
extent OF these great mines Two
thousand miners are employed in the
mines day and night, and within the
last ten years the enormous sum OF
$40, 100000 has been spent by DAILY In
wages and In work for operating these
mines. All OF this money has come out
of the mines and no one but the owners
know how much more the mines have
paid. The stock is not for sale and the
Anaconda mines and smel,ers form a
close corporation. The lumber which Is
, used each month for operating the mine
would make board walk two feet wide
from Washington to Philadelphia and
100 cords OF wood are eaten up each
day in the mine. Three thousand tons

daily, and Everything connected with
them is done after the latest methods

Walker brothers, who have, you know,
owned some OF the most famous mines
OF our history. He served them as a
mining expert, and II was about sixteen
years ago that he was sent by them from
Utah to Montana to expert the Alice
mine.
HOW MARCUS DAILY BOUGHT 4 MINE.
The Alice mine is one OF the most
famous In Montana. II has produced
millions of dollars worth Of gold and
silver Its output for 1891 was nearly
million and Il is still worked at a great
profit. At the time that the Walker
brothers thought OF buying II the stock
had fallen very low. They knew that
IL would rise at once II Il was known
that they wanted II and DAILY was sent
here to find out all about IL. He came

dressed IN rough clothes and pretended
that he was dead broke and wanted
work. He went to the old Continental
hotel and pretended to look for work
for a week, but failed to get II, and told

the landlord, as all miners were well
paid and as there was great demand
for extra hands. The landlord said,
well will see II ! can't get you job"
He then went down to the Lexington
mine and got place for DAILY, and told
him about II. Mr.. DAILY said, 81 am a
little particular about my work, but
will 20 down and look at the job" He
did so and came back the same day,
and said that the mine was TO wet, and
that his lungs were not strong he feared

around for another week, and the land
lord, getting more desperate still about
the payment OF his board, went out and
found him another job. DAILY looked at
1t, worked in |, for two days and then
came back and said that the mine was
not timbered properly, and that he
would not work IL. Now the board bill
for three weeks was due. and the land
lord got hot. lie went up to Walker
vile and got DAILY job in the Alice
mine. He told the Walkerville owners
that he had man loaiing around at his
place for whom he wanted work long

Rev. MIR. Donnocker's Position in Massa
chusetts.

Rev MIR. Donnocker's Position in Massa-
chusetts.
Rev. Delbert G. Donnocker, now await
ing trial here, was only few weeks ago
elected superintendent of the schools of
the towns of Sandwich, Bourne and
Mashpee, in Massachusetts. The story
of his alleged bad conduct was known
for some time, even by the school COM
mittee of Sandwich, before his election.
In consequence of this the committee
voted against him, but Bourne and
Mashpee believed him innocent and vot-
ed in his favor, and as they were in the
majority he was finally elected. The re-
cent occurrences have still further in
creased the opposition of the Sandwich
board, and they are determined that he
shall never superintend their schools.
His trial here will probably come off
soon after the conclusion of the Harper
trial.

Many Cattle and Dogs Poisoned at
 South Coventry.
 The residents of South Coventry are thoroughly aroused over the continued attempts to poison cattle, dogs and other animals which are brought to light there almost daily. Within the past few days much excitement has been caused by attempts to poison a number of valuable dogs, following as they do the poisoning of the valuable herd of Devon cattle owned by Samuel L. French, but short time ago. Yesterday, G. H. Brown found in front of his house, early in the morning, piece of meat rolled up and tied with a string. Inside there was sufficient arsenic to kill an entire family. Several citizens then organized searching party and near P. w. Tur- ner's boarding house found seven pieces of poisoned meat placed at different points about the premises. MT Turner's valuable dog "Prince" ate one of the pieces and died a few hours after. Several other dogs have died within a few days. A reward of $100 has been offered for any evidence that will lead to the detection of the guilty parties.
