PONTIFICAL REQUIEM MASS.
The mass began at 1885 o'clock and
lasted an hour and a quarter. In its
general form II was similar 10 the ordi-
nary solemn high mass Of requiem, hut
! its extra solemnity was marked even
| to one unacquainted With the ritual.
/ It's main difference was in that the
! prayers We're all for the soul of the
! dead bishop and the variable prayers
I of the missal were all special 10 the
! occasion.
I The music Of the mass was rendered
| by the priests choir. Ii was Cascia-
| lnfs requiem mass. The awe-inspir-
| ing "Dies lrae" was sung with much
| feeling. The sopranos and altos OF the
! cathedral choir, under the direction OF
Prof Schilling, sang the offertory
When the mass had been concluded
! Bishop l. +. Horstman, Of Cleveland
! delivered the funeral sermon. 1t was
/ most soulful effort. Bishop Horst
| man and Bishop OHara were fellow
| professors at ST. Charles Barremeo
| seminary and We're always the closest
! OF friends, No one, possibly, was more
| fitted to pay proper tribute 10 the de-

BISHOPS BROTHER.

DR.. O'Ilara, of Philadelphia, brother
of the dead bishop with his wife, four
sons and two daughters and a number
of other Philadelphians, were also in
attendance. Several of them were par
ishoners Of Bishop O'Hara when he
was pastor of ST. Patrick's.
The priests filled the space within
the sanctuary and ten pews on either
side of the Catafalque. The sisters
occupied the north gallery. The scene
was one that will never be forgotten
by those who were privileged to wit
ness it.
With all It's wealth of ceremonial,
the Roman Catholic church has moth
ing in its ritual more impressive than
the pontifical requiem mass, with which
the interment of Bishop OHara was
attended. Twice only to this city has
it been vouclsafed to witness this SOL
emn and grandly picturesque cere-
mOny. Tho Corner occasion was when
the death of Pope Plus IN was OBJ
served in the Cathedrals throughout
this country. The death Of pontiff
is the only occasion of it's celebration.
With its incidentals it requires near
ly four hours time and necessitItes
the participation of at least five pro-
lateS.
1t began yesterday at " o'clock, and
was not concluded until nearly o'clock
p. m, The Office for the dead was the
first part of the ceremony. This con-
ssts of series of chants comprising

THE BIG BUFFALO.

Many Butte mining men have occasion
to remember Sam I. SilVerman, the for
mer foreman of the Badger properties in
Idaho, many of the stockholders of which
were Butte men. After making a failure
there Sam went to Spokane and later to
the Buffalo Hump country. The follow
ing is from the Spokesman-RevieW:
Sam l. Silverman. the pioneer in nearly
every mining camp of the northwest, is
in the city with a contract in his pocket
which gives him the control of the Big
Buffalo group of claims, the properties
which created the famous Buffalo Hump
stampede last summer and which We're
later inspected by the agent of John II.
De Lamar, the mining millionaire, who
offered a half million for the group and
met a cold refusal. Sam Silverman went
into the camp Immediately after De La
mars failure, and in a few days had tied
up the roperty on an easy term bond for
5000, 900. This contract Mr.. SilVerman
showed a reporter last evening. 1t gives
him the exclusive control Of the property,
although he states that he has associated

MINING BRIEFS.

Cutler, Wilkinson & Co, ~leasers on the
Golden Sunlight, near Whitehall, shipped
a car of ore to Butte for treatment this
week.
Dave Reinhart, superintendent of OPP
erations at the Sunrise mine, near the
MayflOwer, was in the city this week for
the purpose of purchasing machinery for
the new hoist recently erected on the
property.
1t takes anywhere from two to five
years to develop and equip a copper mine,
and during the neXt five years the con-
sumption or demand for copper will so
far outrun the production, that, it is be-
lieved, copper, instead of averaging ~
cents per pound as it did last year., will
average nearer Is cents per pound. One
cent per pound on the output of. the
! United States is equal to a profit of
S.. 100000. based upon the production Of
1897.

MINES AND MINING

Spokane parties with himself in the deal
although they do not appear in he con-
tract.
What Mr.. Silverman will do with the
property is yet to be determined He IS
not in a hurry to dispose of it, as he mace
the deal with men who are his friends ana
who have not imposed hard conditions. 1t
is possible that a Spokane company may
be formed to take the property over and
operate it. ..fNtNNf.
1t is just Jour years ago this month that
Mr.. Silverman first took j.. A. Coram,
managing director of the Boston ana
Montana company at Butte, and Capt. =.
II. Palmer, anage of the Butte ana
Boston in that camp, to Rossland ana
started capital strongly in that direction.
He now bids fair to do as much for the
Buffalo Hump camp. He is interested IN
not less than a score of claims there.
He received word yesterday that the
party of 10 men whom he started about II
days since into the camp to break q trall
and to establish a camp at the Big sBuf-
falo had arrived safely and was engaged
in clearing the snow away from the Dig
ledge in several places, covering tfe! OPP
enings over temporarily so that the, ledge
may be examined and sampled withRase.
w. H. Hill, Mr.. Silverman's engineersis in
charge of the party. EM
Mr.. Silverman states that the ledge on
the Big Buffalo is 40 feet wide, andsthat
so feet of it will easily average $50 per
ton, while 10 feet will go $50. That these
estimates are conservative is proved by a
mill test made from the ore taken from a
1O-foot hole sunk about the center of the
ledge. This was milled at the Banner
mill in Florence and $40 per ton in gold
was saved on the plates. The concentrates
We're then shipped to Tacoma and the re-
turn was $2,747 in gold and 60 ounces sill
yer per ton. The concentrates went 30 to
l and the Value Of the ore as shown BY the
test was $130 per ton. Numerous assays
of the ore have been made which showed
values running away up in the hundreds.
Mr.. Silverman is confident hat the
property is the biggest mining proposition
in the northwest. 1t is certain that the
price which he has agreed to pay for ii
is far the largest sum ever invested III
a mere prospect in thisp part of the coun-
try.
The mining district around the Buffalo
Hump is already experiencing the first
thrills of the boom which is expected tC
strike that part of the country in the
! spring. At Grangeville the Free Press
has blossomed out as a daily backed by
a guarantee furnished by mining men Q!
the district. subscriptions are being rails
ed for building roads and preparations
are being made for caring for the rusf
which it is deemed certain will ensue.

FROM ~GIBBONSVlLLE.

A dispatch from Gibbonsville, Idaho,
says that some leaSers on one of the out
lying claims of the "A. d. and M. group,
called the Huron, after doing several
months dead work prosecuting and
drifting for a lost chute that had been cut
out by a fault, finally cut into the coveted
ore body last week and made one of the
most important strikes that has been
recorded in that camp for some time. The
ore was three feet thick where it was first
struck. They have already drifted on
the course of the ore bo|y twenty feet
without finding any signs of it weakening
and " piled up fifty tons of ore on the
dump ready for shipment that gives an
average sample value of $500 per ton. Z

IN DEER LODGE.

Silver State: Horace Hunt, superin-
enden of the mining interests OF j. G..
Flint, of Butte, in some very promising
prospects on Baggs creek, came to town
Saturday to send some samples of a re-
cent strike to Butte to be tested.Si Mr..
Hunt says that they ave a depth of6over
200 feet, and that the present showing is
more lattering than ever before-in' fact
he has just opened a body of quartz about
six feet wide that promises to be rich in
silver and lead. The property has heres
tofore gOn as a copper prospect, but the
recent strike stamps it as a carbonate
proposition, though more work may
change it back again. At any rate, where
could a mine be located that would do
Deer Lodge much more good than one on
Baggs creek.

A gentleman who has but recently re-
turned from British Columbia, says that
a widespread misrepresentation prevails
in that province in regard to the mining
laws in force in the various states in
the Union, particularly in regard to
Washington and Colorado. His remark
was called forth on account of news of
the government at Victoria, introducing
a measure providing for the amendment
of the placer mining act, providing that
no one who is not a British subject shall
take out a free miners license, and that
no company shall have the same license
unless incorporated or registered under
the laws Of this province. The act is
not retroactive. Licenses taken out pre-
~viously may be renewed, but under a re-
newed license no one is entitled to TAX
up new claims. Section 5, which is the
most far-reaching, provides that no free
miner, after the passage Of his act, shall
hold any claim under the British Column
bia placer mining act, or any interest
therein, as trustee or otherwise, for any
person who is not a British subject, or
! for any corporation not authorized to
take out a free miners certificate.
you would be surprised at the feeling
against Americans in the mining dis
%tricts, particularly in the kootenay,'
said the gentleman. Il was there during
the first eXcitement, and there did not
seem to be any feeling then. This feel
ing commenced to make itself felt In
1867. during the boom. There was a
general scramble all over the country,
o~1 +l,p,,en ,,1c r1Nn, thnI1oop1S nf 1noa-
lions were made by Americans. AS a
result many fine lodges were secured by
our people, and the Canadians did not
like it. They seemed to have the idea
that they had no privileges whatever in
the United States, and they did not sec
why aliens should ave any concessions
in their territory. In many cases they
became very bitter, and some of THEN
weekly publications openly advocated the
exclusion of the Americans. The animus
of the whole thing appeared to be that
our people had got the finest pickings
but they would have it ppea that it was
because a Canadian or alien of any KIND
could not hold mining or other property
in many states of the Union. 1t was
simply ridiculous, as they could easily
nave better informed themselves, but il
appeared that they were wilfully ig-
nOrant. The c~lanniShncsS extended sc
far that the British subjects would no
~patroniZe American merchants. If they
could help it. In other words, it was g
kind of freeze-out game. The proposed
legislation by the provincial Legislature
will not affect the Northwest Territories
as they are controlled by dominion Off
! Gals. They seem to forget that it wa
the Americans who discovered their mag
nifcent belts Of minerals and the frs
railroads to open their mining district
were the result of American enterpris
and capital. Now that the first har'
work is done, they desire to reap all tn
benefits. Frankly, / do not think tina
the Canadians have any kick against US
/ Their ideas Of protection are crude"
