Spanish Premier III.

LONDON, April 15.-A dispatch
from Madrid to the Pail Mall Ga
zette says: "Senor Canovas del
Castillo, the Spanish premier, is i'll
and cannot be interviewed. His
relatives, however, confirm the ex-
istence of a 'communique' from
President Cleveland, but in the
present state of public feeling it
will be impossible for the govern
ment to accept his offer. Matters
are very complicated and while the
government will do anything in its
power to avoid quarrel with the
United States it will prefer to fight
rather than lose Cuba through for
eign pressure. The coming cortes
will grant Cuba every reasonable
franchise to be enjoyed under the
Spanish flag"

ANOTHER BIGD|SC0yERY
Two Prospectors Said to Have I'm
covered a Fortune.
NEAR THE HEAD OF GOLD CREEK
1t Is a Gold Lead. and the Lucky Dis
coverers Are Sure That 1t Is Rich
and Extensive Property.

Lee Smith is in Philipsbrrg to-
day from the head of Gold creek, hav-
ing some assays made on several SAM
pies of quartz taken from gold lead
lately discovered by himself and Will
liam Gilmer near the head of Gold
creek, close to the dividing line be-
tween Granite and Deer Lodge coun-
ties. These gentlemen own four claims
adjoining each other upon which they
commenced representation work last
September, and while thus engaged
they found several encouraging in
dications which increased their conf
dence in the properties and caused
them to continue development work up
to the present time, with the result
that they have probably uncovered one
of the richest mines yet heard of III
that section.
At depth of so feet in a tunnel they
have an eight-foot vein of quartz
which is firm throughout and sup
ported by we'll defined walls.
The lead is opened up i'll three other
places and in each of them similar
condition of wealth is exposed.

A SLEIGHING PARTY.
The One Taking Place Last Friday
Night Very Enjoyable.

A pleasant sleighing party took place
last Saturday night, which was gotten
up by Joseph Appel and Lee G. Degen-
hart. Ten couples started out about 8
O'Clock in large sleigh, drawn by
four horses. They drove down below
town short distance and then went
several miles up the valley, finally
winding up at the residence of Mr..
Degenhart, where Prof. Westphal and
daughter. Miss Bessie, We're in waiting
and who discoursed music for dancing,
which was continued until midnight.
Supper was then served and the party
then started on their homeward drive.
1t was an affair that was thoroughly
enjoyable and the night was bright
moonlight one. Credit is due to those
who got up the party for the complete
success of it.
Among those present were: Mrs.
Eugene Smith, Mrs. Sara B. Titus.
Miss Eleanor Ballard, Miss Ethelyn

TERPSICHOREAN AFFAIRS.
A Number of Enjoyable Events to Take
Place Next Week.

Three dances within eight days is a
pretty good record, but such will be the
case in Philipsburg the coming week,
and If the dancing community does
not get IA sufficiency OF a surfeit it will
be their own fault.
On the 18th tomorrow night the
Relief Corps will hold their st. Valen-
tines dance, in which some pleasing
innovations will be introduced. There
will be two hearts made to match for
each couple i'll the hall and these will
be put in two receptacles-one for the
ladies and the other for the gentlemen.
Each person attending will draw a
heart and wear it, when the ladies will
hunt up the one which mates the one
worn by themselves and claim the next
dance with the gentleman who wears
the one matching theirs. The dance
will be conducted as an ut-and -out
Leap Year affair.
The Knights of Pythias viii hold an
invitation Leap Year social and supper
at MOrse's hall on February 10Th,
which will also be conducted as Leap
Year dance. Invitations are being
sent out to ladies only, and they will
select whom they choose as their part
ner for the evening. The Knights
want the affair started pretty early
and would like to impress upon the
ladies the necessity of escorting their
partners to the hall in good season in
order that dancing may not be started
at later hour than 80 o'clock, as the
terpsichorean part of the affair will
end between IL and O'Clock,
after which supper will be served at
the Grand Cafe.
The P. 0. S. of A. ball at Morse 8
hall on February 21 will be one of the
largest of the year, and that it will be
brilliant success goes without saying,
as the young men composing the
membership Of that order have a repu-
tation for doing everything they have
ever undertaken in style and manner
second to none, and this affair will be
no exception to the rule, but rather, on
the other hand, they will endeavor to
eclipse all past efforts. The scarf drill
by number of pretty young ladies
will be one of the novel features.

PRINCETON ITEMS.

Superintendent Gable, of the Royal
Gold, made business rOundtrip be-
tween Deer Lodge and the mine last
week.
George Bieber, after an absence of
several days from his claim on Silver
Crest mountain, snOwshoed back to it
last Saturday.
Olsen, johnson and Soederstrom have
either struck it very rich or are showed
in for none of them have been down
for over three weeks.
Messrs. j. w. Rhoades and Julien
Smith, the latter Butte mining man,
came down from Mr.. Rhoades' gold
claim (on which development work is
being done) last Sunday.
Mr.. Meacham. the experienced ANAL
gamator of the Royal Gold, is availing
himself Of the Temporary shutdown of
the mill to take much needed rest.
Mr.. M. has been on duty continuously
for over two years.
Dick Prince, who years ago in open
court corrected a Philipsburg justice by
informing him that "Richard' was
his maiden name, is rapidly recovering
frOin what at one time threatened to be
a serious case of pneumonia.
Thanks to the energy of Mrs. Kate
Mcdonald, the Princeton Sunday
school is in hourishing condition
with an average attendance of sixteen.
Mrs Med. is it's secretary and visitor,
while doc. - haywood instructs the
bible class, assisted by his daughter in
charge of the Juniors.
A pleasant party convened last week
at the house Of Mr.. and Mrs. haywood
on Broadway. They played Geo
graphy, game patterned after that of
Authors Geography is entertaining as
well as instructive it is the product of
the brain of a Montana lady, and
should be familiar in every community
Fleeting time was paid no attention to
by any Of those present, except baby
that just woke up about II o'clock p.
m. and Of course the baby had to be
respected, so the party adjourned.
While our Sunday school is flourish
ing, our district school is in a estate
of quiet desuetude,' as President
Cleveland would put it. 1t has not
opened its doors to scholars for nigh
onto six months. It's pity that chill
dren between the ages Of 7 and ID can
not get at least six months schooling in
the year. The time they lose out of
school between those years can never
be made good. They are the most pre-
cious for the budding intellect Most
in Montana have last
year voted special taxes to keep their
schools open for ten months.
