SOUTH AFRICAN MINES.
MICHAEL LOWNEY SAYS SOME
ARE GOOD.

Michael Lowney, one of Butte's DID
mining men, returned last night from
South Africa, where he spent about five
years. He left johannesburg on the 14th
Of January, embarking at Durham. From
there he steamed into Naples via the
Suez canal, Red sea, Mediterranea sea
and the Indian ocean. Among other
places visited by him en- route to this
country was Rome, Italy, where he spent
about two weeks seeing the sights. Ire
land and London also received a call from
him, but it was not until he reached New
York that he realized the greatness of
large citiec. Mr.. Lowney brought back
with him several South African trophies.
Among them were two II made of
rhinoceros hide and wild boar tusks.
One Of them was presented to ex-Con-
stable Tim Lowney, his brother, and the
other to Dan Mcdonald, one of his old
friends.
While in South Africa. Mr.. Lowney
followed his occupation n met several
former Butte people. Frank Devlin,
John Meehan and Mike Dwan being three
OF them. The latter left Butte only
about two years ago. Dave Bricker, he
states, left johannesburg for the interior
on a prospecting trip some time ago and
had not returned up to the time of his
departure.
In speaking of the conditions that pre-
vail at the mines OF johannesburg, MI.
Lowney says the skilled white men re-
ceive IS per day, but those who are not
skilled are paid only s 1.25, which is about
the amount paid the Kafir miners. The
latter, he also says, are learnig to per-
form systematic mine work and it will
be only a question of time when they will
succeed the skilled white man. This is
one reason, he says, why England is SO
anxious to establish and maintain its
fnrpo If onvnpn m ont in fhnf oo,,ofrv
There are many good mines and some bad
ones at Johannesburg. So Far, the deep
est shaft is 5000 feet.
Mr.. Lowney expects to stay in Butte.

Miles Finlen has commenced an action
in the district court against John Devlin,
Marion NJ. Devlin, Mary E. Reilly, +. p.
Passmore and the Johnstown Mining
company to enforce the performance Of a
contract and to recover judgment for $25.-
600 damages to which he alleges in his
complaint he is entitled by reason of fail
ure on the part of the defendants to meet
the conditions fer which the alleged con-
tract calls. He says in his complaint that
on February 3, 1896, the Devlins n Mrs.
Reilly, who owned a three-quarter inter-
est in the Minnie Healy mine, executed to
T. r. Kinds a lease and an agreement to
sell their interest in the property for $751;
900, the sale to be made during the ten
ure Of the lease. The lessee was to devel-
op the property and pay the Devlins and
Mrs. Reilly a fourth Of th~ree-quarters Of
the value of all the ore extracted. The life
Of the lease was two years, but before 1t
expired Kinds transferred it to James T..
Finlen and the latter assigned 1t to his
father. In consideration of a promise to
do some development work, the plaintiff
secured an extension Of two years, which
carried it up to Feb. 8, 1900.
The plaintiff further alleges that on the
