yer, and was ordered sent 10 the asylum.
Friends of the unfortunate woman testl-
fed that for several months she has acted
very crazy. On Christmas day she went
out to ride bicycle in the snow and had
nothing on but silk night gown. AT other
times she went out on the street and did
not have even that much clothing on her.
She also went to nearly every store in
town and ordered thousands of dollars of
goods sent to her house. She pawned
diamonds and HOUSEHOLD articles when
there was no occasion for 1t and told
everybody she was soon to be married.
DIR. Wells testified that the woman was
about 80 years OF age and that her mental
condition was due to her physical condl-
ton. While the witnesses were testifylng
the woman often corrected them. She
also said she had $3.50 on deposit in Clark $
kank and told where her diamonds and
property were pawned.
1t is reported that after she was arrested
some thieves broke into her house and
stole several hundred dollars in money
and a lot of personal effects. Judge
Mediation gave Dave Mack an order to
take charge of her affairs.

HURLED TO HIS DEATH
Richard Stevens Meets With a Fatal
Accident.
KNOCKED INTO A SHAT I
His Companions in the West CoIusa
Found Him in the Stump
Dead and Horribly
Mangled.

BUTTE, Jan. The first fatal mining
accident of the new year occurred to-day
at the West Colusa mine in Mcaderville,
and resulted in the instant death of Rich
ard Stevens, in a very peculiar manner.
Stevens was a carman at the mine, and
shortly before noon he took a load tim
bers to the 500-foot station, and after un-
loading the cage he sent it to the surface.
He then unloaded the timbers on fat
car and started to push them into the
drift. The load was a larger one than he
could conveniently manage. however, and
Thomas Walsh, the station tonder, told
him if he would wal. a minute he wouu
help him.
Stevens was in a hurry, however, and he
renewed his efforts to push the car along.
The timbers had been put on the car in
such n manner that the principal weight
was on the front. and as Stevens gave it
particularly hard shove the timbers be
came overbalanced and toppled over in
front. Their weight pushed the car back
wards with considerable force, and Sc
vens was forced back into the shaft, fhe
car following.
The unfortunate man attempted to stop
the car, but the force with which il was
hurled backwards was too great and Ste-
vens was thrown into the shaft in an in
slant.
The station tender at once scared a
cage and accompanied by the station
tender descended into the stump. 80 feet
below, where the horribly mangled body
was found. Coroner Richards was sum-
moned and the body removed to the Butte
Undertaking rooms, where an inquest
will be conducted at 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning.
Stevens was about 80 years old and was
native of Liskird, England. where his
wife and three children reside. lie had
been employed at the mine where he met
his death about five years and was always
considered a very careful miner. He was
a member of the Miners union but be-
longed to no OIL her organization. The fu-
neral will be held at o'clock tomorrow
afternoon from the residence of Mrs. John
Doble. Main street, Meaderville. The
Meadervile band will lead the procession.

BUTTE, Jan. Thomas Z. Cakes and
the other receivers of the Northern Pacific
railroad to-day commenced an action in
the district court against the First Ma
tional bank for Sl26.83 which the bank

manded that the bank repay the amounts,
which was refused and the suit resulted.

has, during the past week, poisoned a
number of dogs belonging TO residents in

spaniel for which he had lately refused
$50. and A. Mathews lost big watchdog
for which he would have accepted no
price. About half dozen other animals
were killed. The people have no idea who
the guilty wretch is, and can see no reason
other than that some thieves wanted to
get rid of the dogs in anticipation of
some robbery that was contemplated.
