GENTLY vigilant to pin him to any de-
finite spot None secured an inter-
view although correspondents through
out the country were aware that two
rival, clamorous western papers We're
nadIy eager for authentic tidings of
the magnate.
The question was never settled. Hill.
of course, never"divulged a word as to
his whereabouts during the disputed
days, and none could settle the tumul-
tuous controversy.
Dillingham's paper sneered at the tri-
umph of the contemporary, and Averys
paper swore vendetta against Editor
Dillingham; for his irreverent mockery.
Finally the Spokesman came out with
what purported to be a great dscov-
cry Hills private car had, indeed,
passed through Spokane, but Hill was
not on board: and Siebold, in the dark
ness, had interviewed the colored por-
ter!
Whether the latter statement was a
fact or a fiction of the imaginative Dill
bingham was never learned. People who
knew of Jim Hills persistent aversion
for reporters We're inclined to accept
Dillinghams version of the mystery 1t
seemed preposterous that the railway
promoter famous for his non-commit-
talsm, should have glibly given away
secrets to which he had chung tenaci-
ously for months.
The StrangeSt part of the whole story
was that every prediction and every
promise made by the person interview
ed by Siebold was fulfilled. 1t was a
remarkable piece of newspaper work,
but it was as inexplicable to the writer
as it was to the general public.

MARRIAGE WAS OFF
Case Where True Love Jumped
the Traces.
.BUCkED AT THE ALTAR
A Difference in Religion Arose Just in
Time to Nip the Contamination
OF a Romance a. Cold.
Cruel World

Sometimes it is noted that the course
OF true love is not smooth. Again, it is
true that the course is smooth all the
way up to within just very brief dis
lance of the goal; then an obstruction
hobs up, and it's all off with Cupid.
The latter instance is cited in a case
wherein two young hearts of Butte are
deeply interested. They had arranged
all those minor details that must all
ways be attended to whenever a star
event in the lives of two loving hearts
is to take place-everything but the
preacher. Let the assertion be made
that concert hall attaches do not re-
gard the ethics of religion, and then
flash into the face of the defamer the
baldheaded fact that it was difference
in religious beliefs that raised the bar
rier that prevented the marriage of an
orchestra leader and Miss May Vernon
in this city.
May Vernon is pretty soubrette, 10
years of age, with wealth of auburn
hair, which is dressed after a fashion
most approved by the admirers of the
diamond brillancy; a complexion of
exquisite finish; tall and graceful; a
sweet voice and faultless form, and
added to these qualities has a master
command of the English language. She
has been in Butte only six weeks.
The orchestra al the Montana concert
hall is under the direction of Professor
ThurSton, who must wait several
months before he can vote without Vio-
lating the law which provides that a
voter shall be 81 years of age. He is
what is called a handsome young man
of the blonde type, curly hair. He is
| an accomplished violinist. Both are
popular with the management, of the
hall as well as with the patrons of it.

GAVE It OUT STRAIGHT
A Successful Interview With
Jim Hills Porter.
THE STORY WAS CORRECT
Every Prediction and Promise Made by
the Man in the Dark Berth Whom
the Reporter Thought Was
Hill Was Fulfilled.
THE STORY WAS CORRECT

Jim Hill is known as the silent mag
nate. He has ability to speak, but is
as averse to public speechmaking as
General Grant was. So far as is known
Hill has no confidants. He enjoins 81
lence on every man in his employ. A
manager, superintendent, conductor or
section boss who talks for publication
loses his position.
In his operations Hill is daring and
novel. In dress he is careless. He
wears ready made SIS suit of clothes.
His trousers quicker about the knee,
giving conspicuous prominence TO MS
heavy shoes, that know no care OF
backing His hat is usually in state
of ancient collapse. His hair is long
and straight. In appearance he would
be at home in the Great Smoky mount
aims or in Darkest Missouri. He wears
no jewelry. His private car has no
more style than the man. 1t is COM
Portable travelling home, but its place,
in point of elegance, would be midway
between a cattle car and tourist

Like Kiplins, Jim Hill will not be in
terviewed The silence he commands
he sets an illustrious example for.
The only newspaper man in the
world, says the New York Telegraph,
who enjoys the reputation of having
successfully interviewed Hill is Louis
Seibold now political writer on the
New York World. The incident took
place 10 years ago, when Seibold was
star reporter on the Review, a morn
ing paper published in Spokane, Wash.
At that time Charles B. Dillingham;,
now manager of the Madison Square
theater was editor of the Morning

the two papers there was furious and
malignant competition, compared with

corning the proposed transcontinental
road was eagerly sought. One night
Seibold got an inside tip that Jim Hill

potion, and after all morphine did it.

druggist says that in all his experience
with "fiends'' no case appealed to ms
