How II Was Named.

The New York Tribune gives it's
readers some interesting information
about Montana in the following:
Michael A. Hickey, who discovered
the celebrated Anaconda copper mine
in Montana in 1866, thought SO little
OF his discovery that he failed to
locate i'm until 1876. Then he and his
brother divided it between them.
his brother calling his portion the
st. Lawrence after st. Lawrence
county, in this state, the old home
of the brothers. How Michael came
to give the Anaconda mine its
peculiar name is thus related by
him: i thought quite a long time
before l named this mine. Several
thousand locations had been filed
i'm and about Butte, and l wanted
tn get a new name. One day while
i'm camp | had picked up copy of
the New York Tribune and read one
of Greeley's editorials I'm which he
said that McClellan's army was en-
veloping Lees army in it's coils like
a giant anaconda. II struck me
that that word anaconda was a
mighty good word, and it always
stuck to me. So when i wanted a
name that no one else had hit on
thought of the anaconda. and gave
the mine the name which has be-
come SO famous. 1t is my opinion
that there is no bottam to the Ana
conda mine. The lead has never
been less than 15 feet wide. and runs
from that up to- 200 feet wide.
think 1t will be mined as deep as the
heat can be endured, and i think ii
will turn to nativecoppereventu
like the Lake Superior mines. 1t il
an interesting fact that MIR. Hickey
got only about $40,OO0 for this
famous mine"

Stanley was either guilty of murder
i'm the first degree or innocent

WILL DURRANT BE CONVICTED.
That Question to be Decided This Week.
Able Arguments On Both Sides.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 26.-The trial
of Theodore Durrant is nearing the
close and the case will probably go
to thejury next Thursday. Attorney
Dickinson for the defense has said he
will conclude ON Tuesday morning.
to which day il has been continued,
and attorney Dcuprey, also for the
defense, will probably finish for Dur
rant on Tuesday afternoon. Judge
Murphy's charge will be long and
exhaustive and it's delivery may
occupy day. The exhibits are
numerous and i'm the case OF some
will require much study on the part
of the Jury; This is particularly
true of the notes of Durrant and
those made by Student CHASER, with
whom Durrant quizzed. 1t is under
stood that the district attorney will
parallel the two sets of notes and
argue that Durrant's could not he
more like Glaser's without having
been copied verbatim. The district
attorney will, it Is said. also attack
the roll call, which the attorneys
for the defense asserted had been
proved accurate, and will call atten-
tion to the error i'm marking Student
Garvin present when he was, in fact
absent. The jury will be asked to
Judge for itself as to the alleged
similarity between the handwriting
of Rev. J. George Gibson and that
on the package enclosing Blanche
Lamont's rings. The defense aban
doned its intention of placing experts
on the stand to endeavor to show
this alleged similarity.
The Examiner says that the con
tents OF the mysterious letter which
was to be opened in case Theodor'
Durrant was convicted are known
In this letter 1t Is said Durran
makes the statement that he saw
the last details of the murder ant
saw Rev. George Gibson and anothe
man prominent in church affair
bending over the body OF Blanch
Lamont. The Examiner says tina
although Durrant required hi
lawyer not to open the letter unit
he was convicted, they have opene'
it and SO remarkable were the state
ments it contained that even they re
frain from using them i'm Durrant'
defense.

Probability that Ohio's Veteran Senator Will

despite his years. will i'm all proba-
bility he an active participant i'm the

was n candidate for president. either
active or passive. and of necessity
did not attend the convention. He
was a silent figure i'm the proceed

life and is now outspoken for
Mckinley il made for a purpose.
The senator has been asked by
friends of Mckinley to be one of the
delegates at large at next years con-
vention and will In all probability
be requested to present the name ol
