IN THE COPPER CITY.
A Resume of the Most Notable Events Transpiring
During the Week-Notes and Personals.
By a Special Correspondent of The New Northwest

ANACONDA, Feb. 13.-The sensation Of
the week, and sensations have been com
ing thick and fast in Anaconda during
recent months, was the cowardly assault
of Oscar Barneyback upon Mrs. b. B.
Catlin and his subsequent suicide Satur-
day night. To a great many people in
this city it was no surprise that Barney
back finally succeeded in shooting the
woman and ending his own miserable
life by his own hand. For at least three
months past the fellow has paraded up
and down the streets of Anaconda openly
threatening to kill Mrs. Catlin, her hus-
band, and half dozen other people in
this city. He was insane. There can be
no doubt about that, but mistake was
made in not putting check upon his ac-
tions before he accomplished his crimi-
nal purpose. In the early days of the
Standard Barneyback was one Of the
incest men employed in the composing
room of that newspaper He was always
tidy in his personal appearance. He
took good care Of himself; did not drink
and did not gamble; kept pretty good
company as a rule, and seemed to be
pretty we'll thought of by his fellow
workmen, but he dropped into dangerous
grooves. He fell to gambling and keep
ing bad company. He was man of nat
urally very stubborn temper. He was
quick to take offense, and unrelenting in
| his enmity. When he conceived a dis
like to person he was savage in his
hatred. For some time past he has not
been in the employ of the Standard.
Being out Of regular employment and
having lost by gambling all the money he
had saved, he became possessed with the
idea that Mr.. Catlin and his family were
his enemies. He vowed vengeance upon
them. He met Mrs. Catlin upon the
public street and assaulted her. ten days
before his final crime. He subsequently
threatened Mrs. Catlin's life, but he was
permitted to remain at large until he met
the unfortunate woman on the street late
on Saturday night and fired two bullets
into her body and then blew out his OWE
brains. Mrs. Catlin is at this writing in 6
dangerous condition. but hopes are en-
tertained for her ultimate recovery. Tht
whole affair has been one of the mos
sensational and in many OF its features
one of the saddest incidents that has oc
Cured in the history of this city.

The engagement of Sousa's magnif-
cent musical organization at the opera
house last Sunday afternoon was in the
nature of added testimony to the great
need which Anaconda has for new opera
house. Times without number attention
has been called by the local press to the
scandalous lack Of theatrical facilities in
this city. There is probably not town
west of the Missouri river that possesses
people more appreciative of good musi=
cal attractions than Anaconda. There IS
pro badly not town in the Rocky noun
tain country that is so poorly supplied
with opera house advantages. Last
Sunday afternoon an audience occu-
pying about half the seats of Evans
Opera house listened to one Of the most
magnificent musical programmes ever
rendered in this part of the country. 1t
was rare treat, worthy of the patronage
of every person in this city Of 10000 who
enjoy good music. The audience was
not large because of the miserable excuse
for an opera house in which the perform
ance was given. An aggregation of
nearly fifty people, talented in their pro-
fession, was brought to this city to rem
der programme in an old shack that is
only fit for second class amateur theatrl=
cal rehearsals. It is about time that An
aconda's citizens were waking up to con
sideration of the fact that as a money
proposition this city should have an opera
| house with modern cOnyenences and
suitable for theatrical performances of a
high character. Last Saturday telegrams
We're sent from number Of prominent
residents of Deer Lodge to the manager
| Of the Sousa entertainment in Anaconda
asking that seats be secured for a party
of people from the Valley City who were
desirous of attending the Sousa matinee
on Sunday afternoon in this city. After.
wards the orders were all cancelled and
the ladies and gentlemen in Deer Lodge
who were desirous of hearing the splen
did band went to Butte and enjoyed the
entertainment in Maguire's Opera house
Had there been anything like decent &C
commodations for the Deer Lodge party
they doubtless would have much pre-
terred to have come to Anaconda to The
matinee. They could have left Dee
Lodge at a pleasant hour in the day, ar
rived here in time for the matinee, list
ened to the programme and returned
again to their homes in the evening il
comfortable time; but remembering tn
character of the opera house that Ana

four books were lost out of the total Of
nearly $4,000 books which had been is
sued. One of the incest features of the
Hearst free library is thatno guarantee is
asked OF patrons of the institution, and
there are no fines for the retention of
books beyond the regular period. Mrs.
Hearst in establishing this splendid Ii
brary trusted to the honor Of the public
IN general to return the books at the time
specified and in good order, and in only
three or four instances has this trust been
betrayed.
The friends Of Mr. E. B. Hosford are
delighted at the fact that he has some
what recovered his health and is rapidly
growing stronger. Mr.. Hosford's return
to Anaconda in sadly weakened condi-
tlon, physically and mentally, cast gloom
over this city. With careful nursing and
with good medical attendance at his com
Portable home it is considered that he
will certainly recover his former vigor
within few weeks. The scandal mon
gers who charged any number of crimes
to MIR. Hosford as the reason of his sud
den disappearance have taken to the
woods.
One day last week the we'll known

old daughter Ethel We're murdered late
on Sunday night. There is no clew to
the murderer, but suspicion points to
Scott Richardson, the step-son of Mrs.
Richardson, who had made frequent
threats to kill her. The only other theory
suggested is that the murders were COM
mitted by tramp.
A workman discovered the body of the
daughter in a vacant field near the Rich
ardson house. Her throat had been cut
and there were several wounds In the back
of her head. A trail of blood was found
leading from the front door of Mrs. Rich
ardson's bedroom. Near the berd lay the
body of Mrs. Richardson, face down.

the head of the bed and another in the
window casing told of her efforts to es-
cape the pistol of her assailant Below
the woman's left eye was a bullet hole,

hand. About the face and forehead there
were several deep gashes, and the back Of
