There is considerable agitation among

that many of them will have to close
their doors in about month from now.
The trustees of the schools which are

nh IS VERY SUCC.. ..SSFUL
Cack McVey Is Making Money in
i British Columbia.
"A RAILROAD CONTRACTOR
Hs Is Now Constructing SLOGAN Branc b
Of the Canadian Pacific = Employs
More Than 900 Men-His Visit
to Anaconda Friends. "-
"a RAILROAD CONTRACTOR

Jack McVey, his brother James Nc
+ Ney and Arthur Haley of Lardo, BIC,
arrived in the city yesterday on a
pleasure trip. The Messrs. McNey
/. were formerly residents of Anaconda
and they were given a royal reception
by their numerous friends in the city.
s Jack McVey is now famous through
out British Columbia as being one of
the most extensive railroad contract
ors in the country. He began his career
in Anaconda when he was one of the
parties who built the B. A. & P. road.
He left several years ago for British
Columbia and has been very success
full in his new home. Jack McVey
was seen yesterday by Standard re-
porter. He said:
II have been engaged for the last
two years in building the branch Of
the Canadian Pacific road between
SLOGAN crossing and SLOGAN city and |
am satisfied with my success. Last
year we We're engaged in constructing
branch at the head of the kootenay
into the Trout Lake district, which, by
the way, Is one of the richest mining
districts in British Columbia. l have
employed 900 men for the last seven
months and stopped work on the first
OF November on account of the winter
season, which is very dull in that coun-
try. During this time I constructed and
graded IS miles of the G. P. railroad.
II will resume operations on or about
the first Of January of next year. I
have a contract to build about "A miles
OF railroad and l expect that it will
take me at least a year and a half to
complete the job. The men are very
scarce in that country and that is the
reason why it will take me so long.
won't bring any men back with me, but
of course if there are any who want
work they'll be nearly sure of finding
it about my camp.
British Columbia is a very good
country for laborers. There is olenty
of work there for them The miners
are on strike all through the SLOGAN
country just now on account of the
eight-hour law which was introduced
last spring. ! believe that all the diff
ficulties will be settled by next spring
and that things will then go on in a
booming manner as usual.
You would be surprised at the num-
Der of Montana people who are out in
British Columbia. l know more than
l25 Anaconda people working out there
and they are all doing very nicely. A
lot Of eastern people are going out to
British Columbia all the time
THE Anaconda Standard is in great
demand about the SLOGAN country, and
il sells like hot cakes. When you see a
newsboy coming along with a bundle
Of Standards it is pretty safe gambling
that he won't have them long. We've
got to pay quarter for it out there,
but we don't care. It's just a. case Of:

SLAPPED HIS FACE.
De Malchin, the Swordsman. Wanted to
Make n Mash.

De Malchin, the Swordsman, Wanted to
Make a Mash.
Ivan DeMalchin, the Russian swords
man, who was in Anaconda a couple of
months ago and who performed at Ana
conda lake park, has been making his
home lately in Salt Lake city. A few
days ago he had his face slapped by a
city detective there, and the Salt Lake
Tribune told of it as follows:
Ivan DeMalchin, the champion Rus
sian broadsW ordsman, who is stopping
in the city for a few days, is in trouble.
Ivan has also suffered the humilia-
ton of being slapped in the face by De-
tective Sheets.
Last evening the great duelist, who
is on his way 30 France to vanquish
swordsmen of note there, went out for
a stroll about the city 1t was not long
ere he ran across Louis Diversion, a
German laborer, who was also out for
a constitutional. Swordsman and la
borer passed the time of night and
concluded to make a tour of the bust
ness portion Of the city together.
The fair daughters of Zion looked
good to the Russian and when he and
his compaion saw couple or youns ia
dies going east from State on Second
South, the two men started in pursuit.
Their actions We're noted by Detec-
tive Sheets and Sergeant Janney, and
these officers say the pair of wouldbe
mashers stepped up to the ladies and
tried to form an acquaintance, but We're
repulsed. Again and again, it Is stated,
they tried but the young ladies' who
had become badly frightened, did not
care to make their acquaintance, and
the obnoxious actions of the two would
be gallants were finally brought to a
close by Sheets and Janney, who took
them into custody.
AT the station DeMalchin tried, in
strong terms, to convince Detective
Sheets that he was mistaken and the
big detective finally lost his patience
and swatted the swordsman a goodly
blow in the mouth DeMalchin and his
companion We're booked for assault and
their bonds We're placed at $40 each. Ol-
verson furnished the required cash, but
DeMalchin had no money with him and
was locked up in dingy cell in the old
city jail, where he had chance to pom
der on the queer things they say and
the queer things they do in the wild
and wooly West, and that his 9th en-
gagement was with Salt Lake de-
tective.
Upon his release DeMalchin will un-
doubtedly issue a challenge to Sheets
for the honor of the man who chal-
lenged Captain Phelan. who challenged
