De Vargas Day.

Yesterday afternoon occurred the
206th annual professional celebration
in fultillment of the vow of De Vargas.
made at the present site of the chapel
of San Rosario, where. after two days
defeat in attempting to recapture the
city of Santa Fe from the Indians, on
June 10, 1892, he had high mass cele-
brated, and vowed that in case his SOL
diers were victorious in the battle on
the following day, he would cause a
chapel to be erected on that spot, and
that the statue of the Virgin, which he
had with him, should be carried in sol
mi procession from thence to Santa
Fe each year so long as time should
last. This VOW has been religiously OBJ
served from that day to this in this
city, although not in the church calen-
dar, and the statue of the Virgin, who
Is known as "Our Lady of Victory
seen in the procession on Sunday, is the
identical one brought by De Vargas on
his eventful march.

STORY OF A BOLD EFFORT
How Captain Smith Escaped
From a Band of Thieves.
INF0RMATI0NS ARE FILED
Frank Weaver. Charles Sherman and
John Doe to Answer to the Charge
OF Burglary-The Mar Under
the ID.

Yesterday morning the county attor-
nation against Frank Weaver and
Charles Sherman. charging them with
the burglary CT the room of John II.
Smith on the 10th day of May. This
information covers a very interesting
statement of facts. John b. Smith, or
Captain John Il. Smith. as he is IA
miliarly called, is a resident of Butte,
and an interesting parsonage in more
ways han one. He has a nervous af-
Fiction with an action something like
the ST. Vitus dance. which causes
him to make involuntarily calculations
Of an obscene character during CONVEX
sation. This affliction comes on him
at n and in the mids of a
sentence.
Mr.. Smith is also peculiar in other
respects. He sports a large. lengthy
gold chain, worth several hundreds of
dollars, hanging about his neck and
person. making him peculiarly the envy
of hoboes. He also carries with him
considerable money.
On the 10th of May he was coming
from the West. He struck some strange
characters at Drummond. who ollowed
him to Garrison and thence to this city.
At Garrison Smith, in settling his hotel
bill, necessarily displayed a considerable
sum of money. The hoboes were OBJ
serving him. joining past Deer Lodge
N or two other persons joined the
crowd of hoboes. Arriving at Anacon-
da, Charles Sherman, one of the defend
ants above named. professed to be a
millionaire prominently connected in
business affairs in Anaconda and treat
ed the crowd, including Smith, to a
royal supper. He then provided "A lodg-
ing room for Mr.. Smith at the lodging
house of Mrs. Mcintyre. all the time
making himself very officious i'm seeing
that Mr.. Smith was comfortably pro-
vided for. He finally took Smith to
his room. Mr.. Smith. after Sherman
had retired. began to undress. prepara-
tory to retiring. He took out his money,
his watch and chain n other valuables
and placed them under the pillow of his
bed. He hen accidentally dropped a
shirt button on the floor As he stopped
to pick it up, he observed a man under
the bed. The thought at once occurred
to him that he would endeavor to have
the man arrested while still under the
bed. He began talking to himself, pre-
tending to be sick, n as If he desired
to be treated at once. He hastily took
his valuables from under his pillow and
placed them IN his pants pocket. He
then got his o%vercoat, retired from the
room and locked the door after him.
As he went down stairs to get an OFF,
Ger the man Sherman followed him
Smith ran across Officer McMasters,
who went with him to the room. Nc
Masters. with his pistol, brought the
man out from under the bed. The man
proved to be the defendant. Frank
Weaver. Weaver said hat Sherman
got him to get under the bed so that he
could rob Smith at the proper time,
and says it was made up at Garrison
to follow Smith and rob him.

Beaverhead counties have boasted of
some rich leads. The Mayfiower. near
Whitehall. is the latest big gold field in
Montana. All OF these are laid i'm the
shade when compared with the enor-
nous ledge of rich rock counter in
the Republic mine in Washington.
Major II. c. kingsbuTy returned yes
terday from Republic. where he has
been visiting the Republic mine. says
the Review of the 18th inst. He brings
the news that the miners have not yet
found the footwall in prosecuting the
ledge at the point where the horse was
broken through a few. days since, and
that the rich ore body is - feet wide
with every indication of being the full
width of the ledge.
IF our lowest workings had been 20
feet lower" said the major last even
ing. 1--WE would not have encountered
the horse and would have known long
ago that the Republic ore chute was %
to 30 feet wide instead of s or 10 feet, as
drifting between the hanging wall and
the horse led us to believe.
The discovery of the remarkable
width of the pay ore was made by acct
dent. The superintendent was putting
up timbers with the intention Of put
ting in stulls n "A floor and then stop
ing down the ore. In setting one Of the
posts against the porphyry. which had
been considered the footwall of the pay
ore, he found il necessary to cut away
a portion Of II in order to maze "A place
for the timber. To his surprise he
broke through about II inches Of the
porphyry into white quartz. He ordered
h miners to put in a shot there. He
could not understand the thing. He was
sure he had not overlooked any ore
along hat wall and yet here was a
showing of the same white quartz hat
had been taken out in the drift. The
miners put in the shot and IL broke
down the porphyry horse and showed
up a clean breast of snow white ore.
you have already published the TACT
that the assays of that ore body proved
as good as those i'm the part of the vein
previously opened. The miners have
been working away toward the foot
wall since the strike was made / left
Friday morning and at that time the
total width of the ore body was % feet
and the lowest assay that had been
made was s126. 80, ranging from that up
to $685.. There is no footwall in sight
and apparently there are three or o
feet more of the ore to be crossed be-
fore the wall is found.
1T is "A wonderful ore body. 1t looks
as if we are to establish "A new record.
Is the camp excited? Well, i can
hardly say so. The camp does not
grow excited over di~scoveries i'm the
Republic any more. The development
has been so extraordinary and the val
ues so immense that the people Of the
camp have reached the point where they
rather expect remarkable news from
the Republic.
Republic ore can be sacked i'm the
dark. There is no such thing as sort
ing 1t. The mill will start it's wheels
Sunday. 1t will handle % tons of ore
per day.
THE camp Is looking well, indeed.
Many properties are showing up well.
1t is "A fact that all the properties upon
which money has been spent in develop
ment are making satisfactory show
ings. Development is the n thing
needful to make the camp a great pro-

STRICT OFFICERS.
some of the Volunteers Not Thoroughly
Adapted tn Army Life.

Visitors from Camp Smith report
thai all is not happiness in Camp
Smith. They say that some of the SOL
diers are dissatisfied and actually re-
greet having enlisted. The objection
they have is altogether the rigid disCi-
pline. Many did not expect to be
obliged to submit TO strict orders such
as are necessarily given i'm the army by
army officers. Many object to being
spoken TO harshly by their superior
commanding officers. They are not ac-
customed To IL n can't readily apply
themselves Ia conditions existing in a
well regulated army. Restraint. too. is
not to their liking. The Anaconda
boys. however. are pleased with their
venture, and say now that they are
becoming more acquainted with tactics
and general routine army life Is all
right so far. Captains Hallahan and
Dillon Of Companies NJ and X respect
lively are popular with their men, and
many who thought at first that Cap
tain Hallahan would be too strict and
severe are agreeably surprised TO know
that he's the same gentleman in army
life that ne was when doing citizens
duty in Anaconda. Captain Dillon.
they say. is one of the nattiest young
officers in camp, and the girls say so,
too.
