MINING IN FERGUS.
Miners at Gilt Edge Paid in Cash Instead
of Promises.

Great Falls, Feb. Thinning enter
prises over in Fergus county are being
handled in a style which is new to that
country. From the beginning there was
nothing but fraud and chicanery in the
management of the Gilt Edge until l..
S. Woodbury. got control of it, and later
e. W. King of this city. The miners
had been in the habit of scrapping for
their wages and more often losing them
than seeing the cash. With Mr. Wood
bury a new order of things began. The
miners We're paid and paid promptly
whether the management made a cent
or not. 1t is evident that Mr.. King is
carrying out this same line of procedure
if one may judge from what the Argus
says. In its last issue is the following:
AT Gilt Edge the mill is now hand
ling about so tons of ore per day and
this will probably be increased soon to
100 tons. The ore is being taken from the
Gilt Edge and Fraction lodes, and while
of low grade. when worked in large
quantities and under careful manage
ment is bringing the company good re-
turns. There are few idle men in the
camp. yet the demand for laborers is
amply supplied At present some So
men are employed, the mill hands
working in two shifts and the miners
in three.
'E. w. King. manager. says that as
soon as the legal controversy over the
titles is settled. if his interests be sue
cessful, many improvements will be
made. Among these will probably be a
gravity tramway for the conducting of
the ore from the mines to the mill. But
so long as the title To the properties is
so heavily clouded it is unwise to make
heavy investments.
Mr.. King presents striking con-
trast to Honest Bob. who shone SO
brilliantly at Gilt Edge for a brief
When rnnNGd he
had shining gold bars to show the Curl
Gus. but when pay day came his en-
ployes got a 'stand-off To use Mr..
Kings own language. i prefer to show
the employees little more gold and the
public a little less With a mining
camp no news IS good news and Gilt
Edge is no exception. Every man is so
busily employed and so promptly paid
that he has no time for high jinks' or
fairy tales"

WANT AN INJUNCTION.
To Restrain Treasurer Geisthorpe From
Selling the Hospital.

Great Falls, Feb. 12.-This afternoon
the Sisters of Charity of Providence, in
the state of Montana, petitioned the
district court for an injunction against
w. H. Gelsthorpe, the county treasurer,
to restrain him from selling the Column
bus hospital property To pay the de-
linquent taxes of 1897. The petition
sets forth about the same facts as those
in the former case wherein the district
court ruled against the county and
stated that the institution was one
of charity, not Self-supporting, and
not an organization for the purpose of
making money. The sale of the prop
erty was to have taken place to-day.
The former case was to restrain the
treasurer from selling the property for
the taxes of previous year. Personal
service was acknowledged by the
treasurer and the sureties on the un-
dertaking were Gold r. Curtis and II.
H. Matteson. both of the First National
bank. Brady & Freeman are attorneys
for the plaintiff.

ANOTHER GOLD STRIKE
Said to Have Been Found in Large Guam
titles Hay River.

Great Falls, Feb. 12.-The latest from
the gold finds on Hay river is contained
in dispatch from Prince Albert, which
says that word has just been received
by Bishop Pascal from northern mis-
sionaries that gold in large quantities
has been discovered on the Hay. Buffalo
and other rivers running into Great
Slave lake, distance of about 200 miles
north of here. The information is con-
sidered perfectly reliable. Citizens are
greatly excited, and parties are prepar-
ing to start as soon as possible. The
route is comparatively easy one. The
discovery was made by a party of ~,
who We're wintering. there EN- route to
Yukon; and the missionary there re-
ports that gold is being brought in
every day by Indians"
Charles Griffin of Edmonton is the
head of an expedition headed for the
Yukon. but has turned aside to investi-
gate the value of the finds reported.
Word is expected from him every day
at Edmonton, and If his report on the
diggings is correct a rush may be ex-
pected for the section of land through
which Hay and Buffalo creeks flow.

THE DEAL is ON.
L. $. Woodbury. Has an Option From j.
l.. Bright on the spotted Horse.

Great Falls. Feb. 12.-This evening
the Standard reporter had an interview
with l.! S. Woodbury. regarding the
status of the Spotted Horse mine at
Maiden. For some time contradictory
stories have been printed in one of the
local papers, sometimes affirming and
sometimes denying that Mr. Woodbury.
had an option on the mine from its
owner, j. l.. Bright. MIR. Woodbury.,
who has just returned from a trip down
the Great Northern. said that he had
not only an option on the Spotted
Horse (Which he drew from his pocket
and exhibited), but that he had let
ter from Mr.. Bright confirming such
option. More than that. he had met
Mr.. Bright and had a long converse
ton with him, and in that converse
tion Mr.. Bright had told him that if he
contaminated a deal he should wire
him and he, Mr.. Bright, would imme-
dtately come TO Great Falls and sign all
the papers necessary TO perfect the
change Of title.
Mr.. Woodbury. stated that SO far as
the reason for such contradictory state
ments concerning himself and his rela-
tion TO the mine. he was utterly at
sea TO account for them. The whole
thing was a business deal between two
men. neither of whom had tired Of the

How to
CureCatarrh.

Every sufferer from Catarrh should
know that it is impossible to cure the
disease with sprays, washes, inhala
tons, ETC., which are universally used.
In fact, the experience OF growing
worse all the while is proof that the
treatment is all wrong. Many
who have been under treatment for
years and met with disappointment in
stead of benefit are willing to doubt
that there is any cure for Catarrh.
The trouble is that all of the treat
ment they have received has been mis-
directed, and has not touched their
trouble. Catarrh is stubborn deep
seated blood disease, and everybody
should know that to simply treat the
surface, that is, the local irritation,
does not reach the disease. A blood
remedy is needed, but it must be good
one; remedy which goes down to the
very bottom of the trouble and forces it
out. SIS. (Swift's Specific) is the only
one which can have the slightest effect
upon Catarrh, for it is the only one which
goes to the seat of the disease, and per-
manently gets rid of it. This is the only
reasonable way to treat Catarrh.

of the house. Houses are built on an
odd number of piles and inside an odd
number of windows will be found.

fortune on the journey. If the child
cries Unfortunately during his absence
the misfortune is of a serious kind and
the household is put into a state Of
unrest till his return. No female may
pass a male member of the family or a
visitor without making low obesance.
Neither may q woman ascend or de-
scend the house ladder without first
seeking the permission of males or ell
derby people near by. If shortly after
the arrival of a visitor betel and nut
were not brought out and offered or If
he were not informed that the stock of
betel and nut had run out 1t would
amount to a serious breach of etiquette.
Females may not have their meals be-
fore the male members of the family,
In the case of children this rule is re-
Taxed. At meal times the members of

which each helps himself as he pleases.
Boys are sent to the monastery at ages

anxious to do all in his power to for
ward it, The Boston syndicate with
whom the proposed deal was to be
made seemed to heartily favor the pur-
chase, and If nothing goes wrong the
mine will be sold. Mr.. Woodbury. has
gained an unusual reputation for bust
ness ability by the manner in which he
conducted the affairs of the Gilt Edge
and every one in Great Falls will be
glad to see him in a position where he
will have plenty of capital TO develop
Fergus county mines and show what
there is in them.

has an excavating contract, came
around and asked him to go to work.
At first he thought that digging was
too hard for him. but few sugges-
tions from the jailer convinced him that
digging was pretty easy after all and
he accepted the position.

Mr.. B. p. McAl1ister, of Harrodsburg,
KY, had Catarrh for years. He writes:
81 could see no Improvement what
ever, though I was constantly treated
with sprays and washes, and different
inhaling remedies-in fact, could feel
that each winter | was worse than the
year previous.
FINALLY it was brought to my notice
that Catarrh was a blood disease, and
after thinking over the matter, saw it
was unreasonable to expect to be cured
by remedies which only reached the
surface. then decided to try S. S. S.,
and the results were gratifying, for
after few bottles were used, noticed
a perceptible improvement. Contiuu-
ing to take the remedy, the disease was
forced out of my system, and COM
plete and permanent cure was the
result. / advise all who have this
dreadful disease to abandon their local
treatment, which has never done them
any good, and take SIS. (Swift's Spe-
cihc), remedy which can reach the
disease and cure it.
To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's
Specific never fails to cure even
the most aggravated cases. 1t is a
real blood remedy, and cures Catarrh,
Rheumatism, Contagious Blood Poison,
Eczema, Cancer, Scrofula, and all other
blood diseases. S. S. S. is guaranteed
