MURDER CASE ON.

The Ellis Persinger murder case was
called in the district court at $3.50 a. n.
At hat hour the defendant, who is
charged with murder, was brought i'll
by Deputy Sheriff Stevens and placed in
the prisoners box.
Persinger, who is a man about % years
of age, and more than six feet tall, was
dressed in a jet black suit of clothes,
light soft shirt and black necktie. His
hair and mustache are both black and
were neatly combed. His face was
shaver. His eyes are blue and he would
be the last man in the court room to
be suspected of the horrible crime of
which he is charged. The defendants
father, a resident of Missouri, was pres
ent and occupied a seat at the right of
his son. The senior Persinger is a man
about 50 years of age, with gray hair
and chin whiskers, a frank, honest-look-
ing gentleman, who took a deep interest
in all that was said and done. A rela-
tionship between father and son was
easily detected, particularly when they
stood up or walked. When all was ready
for trial Counsel Trippet that
the defense was not ready for trial.
I'VE have,' he said. been trying to
prepare certain statements which are

SUMMER SEASON
In Placer Mines Has Been a
Profitable One.
FRENCH GULCH DISTRICT

the Sacks of Gold Brought in
by the Operators.

The placer mines in French gulch. -
miles south of Anaconda, have closed for
the season and w. r. Allen, n of the
most extensive operators, has come in
with no small amount of gold dust which
he found ready sale for at the state
banks. The exact amount he cleaned up
during the summer is unknown. but it
runs into the thousands above his actual
expenses. which We're very heavy. accord

mining is done with hydraulic machines
and an engine is used to lift the big
boulders which are found in the way,
but there was gold out there and Nj.
Allen got it as evidenced by the sacks of
gold which he brought into town after his
clean-ups. He has spent many thousand
dollars during the year in the develop
ment of his mines, both quartz and pla-
Ger, and expects to be repaid for the eX-
penditure in no small measure. His
mines are p1oiinc c:es for which he has

SCHOOL BOARD MEETS.

An interesting meeting of the school
board was held last night. the special
order being the matter of arranging
some way to continue the schools after
the regular money has been exhausted.
County Attorney Duffy was also present
and reiterated what he said at a previous
meeting. He said:
THE law does not contemplate pro-
ceeding with school when the revenue is
exhausted. 1t provided a means for rails
ing revenue with which to conduct he
schools, and when hat revenue is used up
there is no authority of law and no justi-
fication in conducting the schools fur
thcr. When he money is gone you must
close. The board is given no discretion
in the matter.
absolutely the only way open to you
to continue school is by means of volun-
tary contributions. l believe a committee
Of active men could go out here and raise
all the money necessary"
The school board was of the sane opin-
ion. President Tuttle was appointed a
committed of one to wait upon NJ. Dona-
hue. general manager of the Anaconda
Copper Mining company, and ascertain
whether that company would pay it's
share of the illegal school tax amounting
to over $4,000, which was one time re-
ported they would pay. Mr.. Donahue has
returned from the east, therefore it will
be hut a short time until the decision of
the is Known. The matter of
continuing the term of school by volun-
tary subscriptions was first suggested in
the Inter Mountain more than a month
ago and will undoubtedly prevail if any
thing is done at all.
