AT THE HOSPITAL.
Thomas Brown Injured by Fall of
Brick-Progress of the Patients.

Thomas Brown had a narrow escape
from death at the upper works smelter
early yesterday morning. Brown was
working in the bottom OF stack, 'When
through some unknown cause NUMBER
of brick fell down upon him, carrying
him to the ground. He was taken out
of the wreck and conveyed to St. AIMS
hospital, where it was found that ne
had sustained a seriously injured shout
der, some severe bruises about the head,
and some lesser wounds. The injured
man was attended by the hospital sur
geons, and he is now resting easily.
Phil kearns, while stepping on
street car at Carroll, missed his footing
and fell He received some ugly cuts
about the knee and leg, but is recover
ing rapidly.
E. H Macdonald, who was chief en-
gineer of the party of surveyors that
went down in the snoWslide up at Twin
lakes a week or two ago, is so far re-
| covered that it is expected he Will be
able to leave the hospital in a day or
| two. The two other men, Peterson and
| Brown, who were in the avalanche, are
| almost entirely recovered.
Cragan and Kelly, the two men who
| were so awfully burned at the works a
month or more ago, are doing as we'll as
! can be expected, although the nature of
| their injury is such that recovery can at
| best be but slow.
Swan johnson, whose back was 1rac-
| tured by the dropping of an iron cage
some time ago, Is in a promising condi-
! ton, although in his case, as in that of
Cragan and Kelly, nature must be al
| lowed to do the greater part of the
| work Little Johnnie Harrington, the
| lad whose jaw was completely carried
| away by being damned between post
| and a moving car. is able to leave his
bed. The portion of the jaw that was
carried away VII doubtless be replaced
/ by an artificial jaw of rubber and gold
and it is thought that the conformity
| of the boys face will not be marred
This case is one that directly illustrates
the strides which modern surgery has
| taken during the past few years, and the
substituting of the artificial jaw will be
a piece of mechanical dentistry such as
has never been seen in this region.
The other patients at the hospital are
/ progressing at a favorable rate and
many are being discharged each day.

The Famous ScaIchi at the Margaret New
Years Night.

The Famous scaichi at the Margaret New
Years Night.
The nearest approach that Anaconda
is likely to get this season of really
grand opera will be that which Mime.
Salchi will give on Saturday night,
Jan. /. at the Margaret. Nine. Scalchi
is certainly the greatest artist III her
line and no one who knows anything of
the annals of the lyric stage will fail
to realize that this entertainment IS an
event in the theatrical matters in this
city. 1t goes without saying that such
names as the world-renoWned Sealchi,
Toulinguet, the remarkable prima dom
ma soprano of the Map1eson Imperial
Opera company; Mr.. Norman Mcqueen.
the great tenor: Mile. du Bedat, late
of the Carl Rosa Opera company, and
.Achille, the baritone will give an OPP
cratic performance as complete in ey-
cry detail as can be gotten up. Aside
from the one act of opera there will be
a complete concert programme which
will introduce Nine. Salchi in some of
the great songs for which she is ia
nous.

STEALING COAL.
The Officers will Get After the Fuel Pur.
Joiners.

Deputy Sheriff Michael Pickel yes
terday arrested four or five boys who
were caught stealing coal from the
bunkers of the Montana Union railway.
Complaint has been made for some time
that almost anybody who wanted coal,
lust went to the sheds and helped
themselves. Mr.. Picilel took the mat
ter up and yesterday caught some of
the offenders in the very act.
The usual manner pursued by the
coal stealers is to send little boys out
with toy wagons which they fill sew
eral times a day. AS the number of
those who engage in the industry is
quite large, the company each month
loses many tons of coal The boys who
were taken up yesterday We're let go
with a severe reprimand, but in the
future the officers will prosecute all Of
Tenders and it were wise for those
who have been in this business to dis
continue the practice.

There is no craft that works harder
