ANTI-SALOON WORK.
Exclusion of the Gin Mills From Re
sidence Districts the Topic.

Indianapolis, Feb. 3.-The subject of dis
cussion at the meetings of the Anti-Saloon
league today was the exclusion of saloons
from residence districts and all the speak
ers gave the bill now pending in the leg
1Slature and providing for such exclusion
hearty approval. Estimates given by the
speakers showed that such a law would
result in excluding saloons from at least
four-f1fths of the residence districts of the
cities and towns of the state, as fully this
proportion is opposed to saloons unless
they are confined to the business centers.
5. E. Nicholson, author of the Nicholson
temperance law, explained the purposes of
the league He also reviewed its work
and gave an account of its growth. Sub
ordinate leagues, he said exist in nearly
every county in the state, and many peo-
pie are lending aid and encourageme who
are not identified with them as members.

PRETTY PEORIA ROMANCE.
Homeless Girl Finds Good Husband
and Pretty Home.

Peoria, ILL.,. Feb. "A modest romance
eliminated last night when Frederick Mar
sey, who has held a responsible position in
the postoffice fifteen years, married pretty
Edna May La Tourette, aged 16 years.
The girl came here from Lacon recently
and entered the employ of man as a do
mestic. New Years day he caused her
arrest on the charge of stealing s.. The
money was subsequently found where he
had hidden it, but the girl was turned
adrift by the police, homeless and helpless.
The police matron tried to send her to the
home for juvenile offenders at Geneva, but
Mr.. Marsey, who had watched the case
closely stepped in and said he would pro-
vide her home as soon as the furniture
could be moved in. So, instead of enter
ing house of correction, the girl entered
a pretty house of her own. The attempt
to prosecute her because she was young,
pretty and homeless brought her a good
husband and a fine home.

Nez Perces Lands.

ONLY 100 miles southeast of the fertile
grain fields of Eastern Washington De
tween heSsClearwater and Salmon riv--
ers lies what was long known as the
Nez Perces Indian country, only re-
Gently thrown open to settlement and
mining. Since the early SOS when
placers of the Clearwater and Salmon
rrivers it has been tradition among
miners that some day great gold dis
coveries would be made in the Nez
Perces country. The enormous cost of
transportation, remoteness from civili-
cation and consequent impossibility of
carrying on large mining operations
left the rich quartz ledges-the mother
lodes Of the placers-untouched.A Almost
with the completion of
the Northern Pacific's Lewiston extern
sion from Spokane came the announce
ment of the discovery in the Buffalo
Hump range of immense lodges of
gold bearing quartz, which, cropping
out above the surface and twenty feet
or more in width, extend in different
directions for many miles. The rapid
extension of the Clearwater line of the
Northern Pacific, now building along
that river from Lewiston, will soon
throw this heretofore almost inaces-
sible country open to capital, and mod
ern machinery with American grit will
do the rest. For fuller information and
a new map of this region, send a two
cent stamp to Charles S. Fee, St. Paul,
Mimi, or address any general or dis
trict passenger agent of the Northern
Pacific railway.

Lulu Larson Wants Twenty-Five
Hundred Dollars.
FOR INJURIES RECEIVED
The Plaintiff Fell Off the Sidewalk on
Washington Street Her Claim
Was Disallowed by the
City Council.

An action for $500 against the city
Of Anaconda was yesterday COM
menced in the district court by Lulu
Larson. The action was taken by Mrs.
Louise Larson the mother of the plant
if, who is only IL years old. In the
complaint the plaintiff alleges that on
July Z, 1898, she was walking along the
west side of Washington street, on the
south side Of the b., A. & P. track,
without negligence on her part. and
while riding in little hand wagon,
she fell off of the east side of the side
walk to the surface of the ground be-
low, distance of about eight feet,
striking her head on the rocks and
ground which caused conclusion of the
brain and shocked her nervous system,
injured her internally wrenched, in
jured and bruised her back and limbs,
altogether causing her to become un-
conscious, and which created great
sickness, pain and suffering, and re-
quired the attendance of a physician
and surgeon for 13 visits, besides the
consultations of physicians and sur
geons, and required the constant care of
nurse for many days. The complaint
states that the plaintiff was confined
to her room in a critical and danger
Gus condition on account of said in
juries for several days and suffered
great pain and anguish; that her nerv-
Gus system was affected by said in
jury, all to her great damage in the
sum Of $4,000.
The plaintiff alleges that the city is
responsible for the accident, it having
failed and neglected to put any guard
rails along the sides of the sidewalk to
prevent persons when travelling over
and along said sidewalk from falling
off of the same.
The plaintiff alleges that she filed a
claim for damages for said injuries
with the city clerk, which claim was
passed upon by the city council of said
city and said claim was disallowed and
refused, wherefore she prays Judgment
against the city for the sum of $500
as damages.
James M. Hinkle is the attorney for
the plaintiff.

Speaking Of the pen burying ground.
recalls a rather good story which used to
be told at the expense of Warden Hugh
O'Neill. During the time when Colonel A.
G. Botkin was United States marshal for
Montana that gentleman happened to be
at the pen when one of the Indians
and a particularly bad Injun'' at that
died and was to be buried. Seeing no
minister or priest about, he suggested to
Warden O'Neil that he (O'NeilD, should
read few verses from testament at
the grave. .
IT can't do it." said O'Neill.
you don't mean to say you can't
read?" said the marshal
"Oh, l can read all right enough said
the warden. "but I'd rather not do it; 1t
goes against the grain
"Why. what's the matter? Are you
afraid or nervous?"
mo, I'm not afraid, marshal, but to tell
you the truth, I'm id glad that Indian
dead, and I don't think it would look well
for me to read anything over his grave" "
"Why are you glad he's dead?"
"Well. for some reason or other, that
Indian had a grudge against me, and if
he'd lived to get out of this pen I'd new
err rested easy; and so I'm glad he's dead
and 7 wish you'd get some one else to do
your readin' for you
"Well, If that's the way you feel about
it, I'll get one of the guards to do the
reading" said the marshal, and it was
done.
But the incident was too good for the
marshal to keep. and he told it on O'Neill,
who never heard the last of it for many
a day. 4 .~. ,,&.

Working Hard.
The employees at the Butte, Anaconda

busy and particularly during the past
week has this been so. Yesterday aft
ernoon the thorough overhauling of

shop many persons mistook it for a
new one. The boiler, the Russia iron
sjacketscovering, the wagon top and the
sand boxes had all been prepared and the
engine altogether had been completely
overhauled. New side rods had been
attached and this made her run very
much easier The old No 8 has also
been reprinted.
