A BIG DEAL.
George W. Teal Concludes the Sale of the
Pennsylvania Group at Ward.

Pennsylvania Groupat Ward.
The Pennsylvania group, comprising
eight claims, at Sunnyside, belonging to
Kenneth Mcdonald and Mrs. Sarah E.
Sargent, has been sold to Boston syndi.
cate. The'deal was practically conclud-
ed by Geo. w. Teal about 80 days ago,
but for reasons best known to themselves
the interested parties have kept the deal
from becoming public. The considera'
ton involved is not given out, but it is
understood to be $4,000. A company
has been already formed and has filed
papers as close corporation under the
name OF the Yukon Gold Mining & Mill
ing company. A large payment has
been made aud possession of the prop
erty given to'the new owners.
The Pennsylvania group of mines is
one of the most promising properties at
Ward. One of the claims abuts on the
Milwaukee lode, one of the old heavy
producers of the camp and a property
which is now to be worked by a Croscut
from the Atlantic. There is over SI2, 900
worth of development work done on the
claims, consisting of 1850 feet of tunnels
ard drifts and 50 feet of shaft. The ore
bouy consists of continuous vein over
three feet in width, carrying iron pYrltes,
the ore characteristic of the sulphlde
belt. There are also large bodies OF con-
centrating ore exposed.
George w. Teal, through whose agency
the deal was made, has been given charge
as general manager, with an abundance
of working capital to prosecute extern
sive development. The company has
sufficient capital to continue the devel-
opment work until the mine is thorough
ly opened up and therefore will not need
to take cut any ore for shipment except
ing that taken out in development.
Three contracts have already been let
for further development and the winter
will be devoted to opening up the ore
bodies. .....-.s.
The management expects to erect a
concentrating mill during the coming
spring to treat its concentrating ores.
The property is located mile and a half
from the railroad ,and!is easily accessible.
As a mining proposition it is one OF the
most promising in the district and will
be heard of before much time elapses.

circulars, as follows:
To the Teachers of Montana
There is growing demand for
a juvenile newspaper for the
schools and homes of the state.
The numerous inquiries for some
thing suitable has impelled a
number of teachers to organize the
Montana Teachers Publishing
Association for the purpose of
compiling and publishing current
history in language simple and
attractive in style, interesting to
children, and more ineligible to
many older people than much that
is printed in the ordinary news
paper-something that will not
fail to enlist the sympathies of
anyone who may chance to read it.
Who are more capable of doing
this work than some of our wide
awake teachers, whose fondest
affection cling about the little ones
committed to their care, and whose
p 'ovince it is to instruct and to
please them. Teachers find it an
interesting fact that children are
anxious to talk upon current topics
when they can get an idea OF what
is going on in the world. For
instance: the children of a certain
school almost wore out the map of
Gl eece, after having the conditions
there explained to them, trying to
find the island of Crete. There is
nothing that will more thoroughly
arouse pupil to an understanding
of the nature, habits and peculiar
tiles of the people of the world
than to read what those people are
dong al present. 1t Is also i'm

Indians are again making trouble

armed, attacked the home of Matt
Winter, firing several shots inside
the house. Mrs. Winter, the
children and a hired man, who
we're in the house, fled by the rear
way and escaped without injury.
Matt Winter was one of the
deputy sheriffs who accompanied
Sheriff Gibb to help arrest "Little

was the general opinion at that
time that Matt Winter would die
soon at the hands of the Chey-
ennes. The authorities have again
asked Senator Carter TO bring the
matter before Secretary Bliss and
see if some permanent relief from
the Indians cannot be obtained.
