THE SCHOOL CENSUS.
Questions That Will Be Asked at Each
House.

House.
To-Day DIR. Chaplin begins on the taking
OF the annual school census and in con-
nection the census OF births. This is done
in accordance with State Law and is very
interesting as well as arduous. Nine
enumerators are employed and they go
from house to house, the whole occupy
ing about six weeks, aud ind out as
nearly as possible how many scohool
children there are, where they go to
school and a great many other details. 1t
Is quite important that the school census
should be as large as possible, too, for
the more pupils the less tax will be re-
quired from the city.
In getting at the births in the city, the
period covered is the previous six mont his
and IL is quite important that mothers
should remember whether any OF their
children were born within that time or
not. It frequently happens that a mother
with three months babe in her arms
will answer no when questioned by the
enumerator.
II is Dr. Chapin's desire to accomplish
this census-taking in one month this
year, but that is hardly likely. Ii was
done one year, but one ward had to be
gone over again, so five or six weeks is
considered none too long by those who
have TO DO the work.

Jury Did Not Take Long
to Agree.
Second Man Convicted for the
Murder of HaSWell.
Prisoner UnmOved---A New Trial
Will Be Asked For.

The jury in the Haswell murder csse
brought In verdict OF guilty at the
opening OF the court this morning. The
jury had reached an agreement about 3
O'Clock last evening and the short time
taken 10 consider the evidence led all to
expect the verdict which was given.
Attorney General Dubois and Attorneys
Bre 1nap ana Holland were in the court
room some time before the court opened.
Martin Dalton, the prisoner, took his
seat within the rail ana did not show
any anxiety as to how the jury had de-
cided his fate.
When Judge Wilbur took his seat on
the bench, the jury was promptly called,
and this finished Dalton was told to
stand up. He did so without a tremor.
The foreman OF the jury in response to
the usual question from clerk Webster
replied in low tones that the jury found
the prisoner guilty. Not a line of Dali
toms face moved as he looked steadily at
the jury.
General Brennan promptly asked that
the jury be polled. This was done and
every man announced his verdict to be
guilty. After few seconds had elapsed
the Attorney General moved for sentence
General Brennan said he aud his asso-
ciate would require time'to prepare mo-
tion for a new trial.
Judge Wilbur ordered the prisoner taken
down stairs egain and the second man
found guilty OF the murder OF Anthony s.
Hsswell was soon on his way back tc
prison.
The calendar OF appeals on the city SO
licitor's docket was postponed until Sat-
urdsy, and tho trial of cases i'm which
the Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty
to Animals is interested was postponed.

A Police Judge Used His
Revolver in Time.
High Handed Work in the
Streets of Chicago.
A Previous Experience With High
waymen Was Valuable.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-As Justice Jarvis
Blume of the West Chicago Avenue Po-
lice Station was passing underneath the
alley 81" at Thirteenth street at 80
O'Clock this morning in company with
his daughter May, two masked men
spraDg from Inc shadow OF the structure
and attacked the magistrate. One OF
them threw his arms about Mr.. Blume's
neck and tried to strangle him. The
other two made an attempt to find his
pocketbook. Justic Blume has had ex-
periences with robbers before and he
knew what to do. Making feint to as
sist the robber he drew his revolver and
fired without an instant's warning. The
man uttered a cry OF pain and tried TO
run. He went q few steps and fell, with
the blood streaming from a wound in his
abdomen. Before the police arrived the
man was dead.
Seeing the man fall, Justice Blume
turned mis- revolver upon the other man,
who was trying to escape, and fired sew
eral shots after him, none Of which took
effect, so far as 1t Is known.
The magistrate had been spending the
evening with some friends and remained
after the. cable cars stopped running.
with mis- daug hter, he was walking over
to State street when attacked.
After the shooting the two went 30 the
Harrison street police station and told
what had occurred. The patrol wagon
was sent out at once and the man was
found lying dead where he FELL The
dead man was taken so the morgue. No
clue was found in his clothing that would
lead to clearly prove his identity. Among
papers in his pocketbook, was vaccina-
tion certificate made out to John Kelley.
Letters were also found which bore differ
ent names as follows: ME-. f. Wells,
Youn gstown, o.. John Gingle, Az Penn
avenue, Pittsburg; and o. b. Sheppard,
Altoona, Pa.
Justice Blume was attacked by footpa
three years ago. He was then a justice at
the Desplaines street police station and
was on his way home from the station
about 1 o'clock in the morning
when he was attacked. He was carrying
a revolver, and In order to save himself he
fred at the footpads. At first it was
thought he had shot one OF them, but the
men escaped and nothing was ever heard
of them.

FREDERICK WARDE
lie Will Present -Four Magnificent Pro-
ductions in butte This " eek.


auctions in butte This Week.
Frederick warde will commence his
annual engagement at Maguire's opera
house, Butte, on Thursday evening of
this week. Mr.. Warde will give four
performances, producing DEnnery's
celebrated romantic drama, "Belphegar,
the Mountebank," on Thursday night;
Shakespeare's majestic tragedy. king
Lear" on Friday night Sheridan
Knowles famous tragedy, "Virginius."
on Saturday afternoon, and Baucin's
thrilling drama, Damon and Pythias, :"
on Saturday night. Mr.. Warde's COM
pany is said to be the best in support
of any tragedian and all his plays are
produced on a. magnificent scenic scale.
The company numbers over 20 promi-
nent people and they carry a carload
of scenery.
The feature of the engagement will
be Shakespeare's tragedy, king Lear, :"
in which Mr.. Warde is said to have
made the greatest hit of his life The
Los Angeles Times says of the perform
ance:
"Of the many excellent things that
play goers have seen Frederick Warde
do, we think that those who were so
fortunate as to be in attendance at the
Los Angeles theater last night will
agree that his King Lear Is one of his
very greatest-if not i. his greatest
characterization. Indeed, his work in
this role was in the nature of a reve-
lation
I'm the first act, with his knights,
courtiers and men-at-arms about him,
when he calls his two hypocritical
daughters, Regain and Goneril. to the
foot of his throne and bowers them
with his splendid possessions, and casts
off the more honest and sincere Cor
della with her fathers curse as her only
possession, he was-as he says later in
a moment when his wits have fled
every inch a king The scene in which
he reviles the naughty and unnatural
Goneril, and calls down upon her and
her future progeny the maledictions of
an outraged soul, was a splendid bit of
powerful acting-acting that stirs and
thrills and exalts until the blood surges
about the listeners heart, and the
hands leap together in the fullest
measure of applause.
THE scene in which the Stimulating
mailman, Poor Tom, who is 'a-cold,
leads Lear's wandering wits astray,
was a most clever hit, and the closing
scene in which the old king carried the
murdered Cordelia upon the stage and
dies with lamentations above her in
sensate clay, was as artistically famous
an achievement as has been seen on
this stage in many seasons.
las ON the previous evenings the
scenic features were superb, and the
tempest scene was one of the most
realistic ever seen on our local stage.

IN THE ST. WRENCE
Five Bodies Recovered From the
Scene of Destruction
VIEWED BY MANY PEOPLE
Dryer. McVelRh and O'Rourke
Taken From the Mine-Superin-
tendent C'NeilI's Theory as to
the Cause of the Accident.

The work of clearing away the wreck
age caused by Saturday mornings ter
rible explosion in the st. Lawrence
mine was actively continued all day
yesterday, and such good progress was
made that by o'clock last evening all
of the ground rendered insecure by the
explosion had been caught up and two
more bodies had been recovered.
The first body recovered yesterday
was that of James Dwyer, which was
taken out about o'clock. 1t was found
about so feet east from where Lowney's
body was discovered and at the other
end of the cave in, the tunnel, which
was caused by the explosion. His body
was lying in an open drift and there
was only very little drift dirt on top
of it. His head was crushed, probably
by having been violently thrown
against a timber, and he was partially
disemboweled. He was only partly
dressed.
John McVeigh's body was taken out
about o'clock. 1t was found about 10
feet nearer the shaft than that of Dwy-
er and was partly under the east set of
timbers that was brought down by the
conclusion. His legs were pinned down
by the fallen timbers. The body was
perfectly nude. The head was badly
crushed. but there were no other ap-
parent injuries. The bodies of Nc
mans undertaking rooms.
The place where the bodies of the
miners were found is about 900 feet
from where they were working, and 1t
is the supposition that they were
changing their clothes and getting
ready to go on top when the explosion
occurred. From the condition of the
bodies, il is evident that none of the
men were close to the powder when it
exploded.
Superintendent Jack O'Neill now has a
definite theory as to how the accident &C.
CURED. 81 think now" said Mr.. O'Neill
last evening, that Lowney and Quinlan
were carrying the powder out when 1t
caught fire in some way and that they
dropped IL and started to run. / also be-
lieve that Dwyer, McVeigh, O'Rourke
and Shields were getting away from the
powder when it exploded. We will be able
to tell just where the explosion occurred
from the timbers when we get to them.
From inquiries that 1 have made / am
satisfied that there could not have been
more than a box and a half of powder in
the magazine at o'clock Saturday morn
ing, and Lowney and Quinlan had the
greater part of that. We will not be able
to tell whether or not the powder that
was left in the magazine exploded until
we get to it."
The bodies at the undertaking rooms
were viewed by thousands of people all
day yesterday and last evening The in
quest will be commenced before Coroner
Richards at the Butte undertaking rooms
at o'clock this evening. Lowney's body
was shipped to Hancock, Mich, last
evening and was accompanied to the de-
pot by a large number of friends. The
body of John Quinlan will be shipped to
1shpeming, Mich, over the Great North
ern at 7:20 o'clock this evening John Con-
nors will accompany the remains to their
destination.
