fetal classification committee" asked

vances had been applied to classes Of

Marcus DAILY and Others the
Purchasers.
THE PRICE WAS GOOD ONE
Mr.. Petritz, Who Owns the Controlling
Interest. Admits That the Sale
Has Been Made.

One of the largest deals contaminated
in Anaconda for a long time, if not in the
history of the city, took place yesterday.
The property transferred was the entire
plant of the Anaconda Brewing Co. to
Marcus Daily and others, which is said to
be the Washoe Copper Co, for the sum of
$3.50, 900. The plant is situated in the west
end of the city, at the corners of West
Park avenue and Walnut street. The
owners are j. v. Petritz, his brother, Mat
Petritz. and John Armbuster, but the
former owned the controlling stock. This
is one of the most complete and largest
brewing plants in the state. 1t was
founded less han Is years ago by Mr..
Petritz and Joseph Steiger, who about a
year ago sold out his interest to Mr.. Arm
buster and Matt Petritz, and has since
purchased the brewery at Missoula,
established by Messrs. Lang & Martin.
j. V. Petritz was very retlcent about
the deal when questioned by an Inter
Mountain reporter last night at 9 o'clock.
At first he said he did not know, but af-
terward said the deal was made and
would come out pretty soon. He would
not discuss the matter any further. but
it is evident he will remain in charge of
the business under the new management
for some time. A Butte office will be
opened up at once at No. % West Park
street. Bottled goods will be placed iii
the market at Hennessy's store at Butte
and C~enterville, and the product pushed
as 1t never was before. The Anaconda
brewing plant is situated just east of the
Anaconda brick works. in the west end of
the city. Both plants and grounds occu-
Ply about six blocks square. West of
these plants and east of the race track
are situated several plated blocks. sur
rounded with shade trees. A well found
ed report says the brick yard plant is to
De moved to another location south and
west OF the race track, and that the race
track and all it's buildings is also going
to be moved, which accounts for no rae
ing here this year.
Inc brewery may not be moved. but It
mas neen sold, which was corroborated by
MT: Petrltz, the principal owner. after a
Volley of questions were put to him
which he could not evade.

THE VANISHED YEAR.

] can smell the scented snowfakes
Softly falling at my feet;
Hear the bees that sip the honey
From the cherry blossoms sweet.
! but shut my eyes to see them,
Orchard, meadow, brook and we'll;
! can hear the cattle coming
Down the lane with tinkling bell.
See the clouds go swiftly sailing,
Summer Zephyrs fragrant blow,
Where the sunset and the river
Meet and fade in golden glow.
There are moss encrusted pebbles,
Where the robin dips his wings
In the brook whose ripping music
OF my boyhood yer sings.
Happy boy whose careless whistle
Echoes through the vanished years
Now a dreamer in the cleaning,
Looking through a mist of tears.
That the light and this the shadow,
Days like passing visions seem,
Till I whisper in the twilight,
That the real, and this the dream.

A WHITE WOMAN CHIEF.

Mrs. Harriet Maxwell Converse has the
distinction of being the only white Wo-
man who is an Indian chief. Mrs. Con-
verse holds the position of honorary chlef
of the United Tribes of the Six Nations
of New York state, and with the excep-
ton of Lieutenant Gushing, the Zuni ex-
plorer, is the only white person ever adj
mitted to the secret circle of the Indians
Mrs. Converse comes of a family whose
sympathies were with the oppressed. Her
grandfather, Guy Maxwell, was adopted
by the redskins in 1892, and her father,
Thomas Maxwell, In 1904. She was, there
fore, regarded as an inheritance by the
Indians, and was adopted INTO the family
of Red Jacket. a Seneca Iroquois, in 1878,
and subsequently by the nation. She
visits the reservation frequently, and is
always summoned to important ceremo-
malls. In times of trouble or emergency
her advice carries great weight. She has
often represented her adopted people in
court and before the legislature.
Mrs. Converse has probably the finest
private collection of Indian relics in the
world. They include a full set of wam-
pun belts, which are now in the possess
sion of the state of New York, to form a
portion of the Iroquois relics to be de-
posted in the contemplated state mu-
scum. She has a very rare and interest
ing "woman's nomination belt" which,
accompanying a nomination, practically
secures an election.
Mrs. Converse is an author, poet and
historian. According to the late General
Ely s. Parker, who was military secre-
tary to General Grant during the war and
a commissioner of India.l affairs, she is
the best informed woman on the rise and
fall of the 1rOquois Indians, their origin.
the formation of their confederacy and
illustrates her lectures with pieces Of pre-
historic pottery, stone implements, flint
weapons, bone and copper agricultural
implements and other Indian relics. Her
Indian name is Ga-ie-wa-uoh, which
means "She watches over u.s."
