MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
Alfred Jackson Was Found Dead
in Field Where He Had
Laid for ~ Hours.
Was it an Accident, Heart Dis
ease or Foul Play?-'TWas
Mysterious Death.

A very mysterious death occurred in
Wyanette last Thursday and the
mystery surrounding bids fair TO re-
main unsolved. There were no wit
nesses and the body remained in the
field about twentyfour hours before it
was discovered.
The particulars are very meager and
the UNION can only tell the story as it
came to it. Alfred Jackson, a young
farmer of Wyanette, drove to Andrew
Israel's farm about four miles from his
home to procure a load of hay and ar
rived there at 10 o'clock Thursday
morning. Mr.. Israel was absent at the
time, servant girl being the only
person on the premises. Mr.. Jackson
told her his errand and on being in
formed of his neig boris absence said he
would go and get load anyway. The
girl offered to help him load the hay
but he declined stating that he would
only take what he could get on him
SELF He started toward the meadow
and was not seen alive again. Mr..
Israel's family supposed he had got
the hay and gone unnoticed, but the
next morning one of the unfortunate
mans horses, which had broken loose
from the wagon was found in the barn
and they suspected that an accident
had befallen him. On reaching the
meadow the other horse was found still
hitched to the wagon eating hay from
the stack but no sign of Jackson could
be seen. After short search, how
ever, his body was discovered less than
hundred feet away. The coroner
was notified but our informant did not
know what disposition was made of the
matter. There are several theories as
! to what may have caused Jackson's
death. one of which is that his sudden
end was due to heart trouble.
! Another, and the most probable one is
that he was thrown or fell from his
wagon and broke his neck. Near
! where the body lay was a shallow
ditch and it is thought the accident
occurred when he drove across this.
His death is particularly sad because
he leaves a bride of a year and a babe
to brave the struggles of life alone.
His wife is so seriously i'll that she has
not been informed of her husbands
fate and her life hangs by a thread.

BOB MAKES AN IMP PRESTON.
Editor McGarry Found Auditor Dunn Diff
ferent From the Man He En-
racto11 To See


oected to See.
Bob Dunn was in the city Monday.
He was not the short, fat dark COM
plexioned man we imagined in our
dreams, with long flowing whiskers
and a silver mounted monocle. Quite
the contrary. He was good speci-
men of the down east Yankee with
none of the hyperaesthesia and less of
provincialism about him. He was good
looking, too, and somewhat of a purist
in his manner of expression which
gave him an attractiveuess outside of
his official capacity that would have
done credit to the eloquent Chester
tieldian sang froid of Frank Day.
He did not talk as though he was
debating editorials nor did he expect
to be governor next term. He frankly
admitted that Dave Clough was gov
ernor of Minnesota and that he was
likely to succeed himself in that ele-
waited capacity. Knowing that this
idea would suit the Virginidn he con-
graduated himself upon escaping an
interview.-Vi Virginia Virginion.

IF Milaca should try to get the

a reason for believing so, the bitterness
engendered by the recent waterworks

was gloomy spectacle. All the hearses
in the city were engaged for the occa-
sion, and in addition to the public fu-
neral number of the dead were given
private funerals at the homes OF rela-
tiyes. The financial loss is much smaller
than was ait first estimated, not reach
ing over $I50,00 The Underwriters
association Of San Francisco has sub
scribed g., 800 TO the fund for the fani-
lies of the fremen, and about $l2, 600 has
already been raised locally.
Butte is abundantly able to care for
the afflicted, but it has been decided
that to permit local pride to stand be-
tween the sufferers and outside gener-
osity would be q great injustice, and
the contributions from other points have
therefore been accepted. There are
widows and dependent relatives of the
dead to be cared for and children to be
educated and the amount Of money
raised win be none too large. The peo-
pie Of Butte are responding generously.

Tifty-three Known Dead From the Butte

BUTTE, Mon, JAN I9.--Hour after
hour the disaster has been putting on
more distressing proportions. The list of
known dead has swelled to 53 and at least
four i'm the hospitals cannot recov-
er, These are John Sloan, Charles Ash
ton, w. L. Miles and William Bow.
Others are also believed to be fatally in
jured.
TO the list of missing, the name Of
Charles Hoffbauer has been added. A
few hours before the explosion he was
mp town and purchased pair of shoes
and ON his way home he evidently
stopped at the fire. One shoe, badly
torn, of the new ones he had under his
arm, has been found quarter of mile
from the scene of the catastrophe, bat
not fragment of Hoffbauer has been
found.
Many Never VIII BE Known.
There il no doubt that many were
blown to atoms who will never be heard
Of. Among the debris was found a
number of letters addressed to William
Moffeet, 463 Fremont street, Boston.
The letters We're from Canada, and were
signed Ambrose Allen 1t is supposed
he Is among the victims.
Every hour also brings additional re-
ports of the injured. Fully 100 have
been heard from, many of them being
iii serious condition. The flashes and
concussion Of the explosion was severely
felt at Belgrade, on this side Of the
mountain range, and So miles from
Butte. It is estimated by mining men,
familiar with explosives, that there was
at least 20 tons Of powder in the house.
The law limits the storage of powder
within mile Of the city limits at $50
pounds. The penalty for its violation,
however, is only a nominal fine.
The work of relief has made excellent
progress. Nearly $4,000 was subscribed
during the day. The Northern Pacific
Railroad company and several mining
concerns contributed 81 900 each. The
committee visited all the families of the
victims and found many of them in
