THE HAVANA CAT ASTROPHE
Details of the Maine Horror
Largely Sought After.
COL. TH0RNT0N'S NEPHEW
One of the Missing Officers a Nephew OF
Anaconda's Ex-Mayor-There Are
Those Who Do Not Hesitate to
Express an Opinion.

Nothing that has been sent over the
associated press wires of late has caused
so much comment as has the Standards
account Of the Havana harbor disaster
of Tuesday night. Yesterday the prin-
cipal talk of the town was the accident
that sent two or three hundred men to
their death in the bay of the Cuban port.
From the meager details which were
at the disposal of the people of Ana
conda regarding the explosion, the sur
misses were many and of various kinds.
The great majority of people were con-
tent to await further intelligence from
Havana as to the cause of the explosion,
but there were also many whose op1n-
ion was firmly fixed that all was not
right about the affair.
Nothing has served to stir up the pa
triotic blood of the citizens of this city
so much as has the Maine catastrophe.
The people of this community have ever
been in the forward ranks of those who
are Cuba'S staunchest friends, and there
We're those who yesterday did not mince
words in expressing their sentiments Of
what course should be taken should it
transpire that the accident was caused
through the agency of interested per-
sons.
Local interest is added to the details
of the terrible calamity through the fact
that blit III TIE SEdIl1tl 10 De d
victim was a near relative of ex-Mayor
Thornton of this city That man is En-
sign Edward IL. Watson. The dispatches
of last night state that all of the off,
GERS of the Maine, with the exception of
two, have been saved. In the list of
those who Were saved the name of En-
sign Watson does not appear, and the
superstition is that he met the fate of so
many of the brave marines on board the
Maine.
Ensign Watson was the son of Com
modote Watson, who figured with dis
tfnction in the navy during the civil
war and who is now commander of the
naval home at Philadelphia Ensign
Watson was a graduate of the naval
academy, and left that institution two
or three years ago Since then he has
been much of the time aboard of the
Maine. He was the son of ex-Mayor

seen to-day was very dubious. He left
Anaconda eight years ago, and has not
been here since that time until his
present visit. He expressed the great
est surprise at the growth Of the city
during the comparatively short time he
has been away, and admitted that ne
could hardly conceive that IL is the
same Anaconda that he left not 10 years
ago.
In speaking of the outlook for the
year in Great Falls and Northern Mon
tana Mr.. Jones said that Great Falls
was moving along smoothly and doing
as well as could be expected A man.
said he, who lives in Great Falls has
no fault to find. The stock interests of
Northern Montana, said Mr.. Jones, are
in an excellent condition. During no
winter for the past eight years has the
live stock industry suffered so little as
it has this winter. The losses will be
very slight, and cattle men and sheep
men look for an unusually good season.
The cold weather that may still be in
store for the ranges of Northern Mon
tana, said Mr.. Jones, will have very
little effect on live stock, as the season
has now so far advanced that little or
no apprehension is felt for the future.
1t has been SO pleasant up north during
the fall and winter that many persons
went about without an overcoat.
The citizens of Great Falls. said Mr..
Jones, and especially the business men,
look forward to great benefits accruing
from the opening of the Edmonton route
to the Klondike. This route said the
Great Falls man, is sure to be made use
of by thousands of people contemplate
ing the trip to Alaska. The people of
Great Falls and that vicinity are loud
in their assertions that the Edmonton
route is the only road to the wealth of
the Klondike.

SAGE CREEK.
A New and Promising Mining District in
Idaho.

A New and Promising Mining District in
Idaho.
A G1bbonsville correspondent has the
following to say concerning "a new min
ing district in Idaho:
Why go to the klondike when there
are so many chances for capitalists to
make money nearer home? A few
hours ride from Gibbonsville over a
good mountain trail will bring one to a
mining country whose mineral re-
sources are great, and until few years
ago almost unknown. Sage Creek Ida
no. is the name of this new mining dis
trict, and all it wants is someone with
money to make it one of the best min
ing districts in the West. The quartz
is free milling gold, and what prospec-
tors call ribbon quartz, and is of very
good grade. The mines are situated on
what is called the divide between In
dian and Sage creeks. There is an
abundance of mining timber, and only
four miles away runs the mighty Salm-
on river. with power enough to move
the greatest machinery The altitude
Of this wonderful district is 1000 feet
about 5000 feet higher than the camp
at Gibbonsyille.
The Bohanan Bar Placer Mining
company has been running a tunnel
this winter, and is expecting to put in
mill in the spring. Casey 81 Jones are
sinking a shaft on this claim called the
Laura, and are down Is feet on their
lead, which stands almost perpendicu-
lar, and is about six feet from wall to
wall, in which the yellow metal can be
seen without the aid of glass.
Thomas f. Gallagher, formerly of
Butte. is operating here. He has four
claims, which he is opening up as best
he can, and his prospects are looking
well. Tom is typical prospector and
knows a good thing when he sees it.
Duncan & Longfeldt are running a tun-
mel on their mine called Peaches They
are in over 100 feet and have three feet
of good ore in the face. There are
numerous other good prospects. but at
present they are not being worked
There has not been a foot of work
done in this camp this winter without
favorable results. and there is a splen-
did opportunity at present for someone
with money to put in a custom MILL
as there is lots of ore in sight enough
to keep 100 stamps pounding for some
time. ! am sure anyone wanting to in
vest money in mining would do we'll to
pay this wonderful mining district a
visit, where there is plenty of good ore
abundance of good mining timber, good
water and dry. healthy climate.

RICE's "1492."
The Musical Burlesque Will Hold the
Boards mt the Margaret Tonight.

soAAos ~ ahS lO-2Sl snt.
Rice's 1872 the musical burlesque
which is to be presented at the Mar
garet theater tonight, is one of the
largest and decidedly most entertain
ing eXtravaganZaS of recent years. 1t
carries the record of two years run in
New York, one of the longest ever
known in the city. 1t is witty conceit
which takes Columbus from Spain and
sets him down in the streets of New
York of to-day. The first act shows
the court of Ferdinand and Isabella
with the courtiers Of 1892 and their
magnificent costumes: the second act is
in Madison square, New York and the
last back in Spain.
1882" is a bright satire and a clever
combination of comic opera and vau-
deville and farce. II is well filled with
amusing jokes, constant surprises and
a grotesque mingling of fifteenth and
nineteenth century ideas. The story is
better than that of the usual burlesaue
and the music is bright and of the pop
ular order There are no dull moments
and fun, song and dance are the chief
elements of the performance. The spe-
cial features are the original and ia
nous kilanyi living pictures, a Spanish
ballet six daily hints from Paris and
the hurrah dudes. There is a large
chorus, which includes more than
score of handsome young women.
Among the pTlHelpdl members OF the
company. which numbers nearly 10 peo-
pie, are Stuart. the male Patti Mas
ter Thomas Meade. a phenomenal boy
tenor, the famous Herald Square Quar-
tette, Tom Peasey, Marie Conchita,
Connie Thompson, Francis Gaillard
Thomas Fl. Ince. George D. Cunning
ham. II. j, Turner and George Ovey
The piece will be presented with an I'M
