ing Missile.
A DEPLORABLE ACCIDENT
He Is at the Hospital in a Very Critical
Condition - The Chances Are
Much Against His Re-
covery.

The 5-year-od son of Frank Cash of 81
Lincoln avenue, Meadervlle, had his skull
terribly fractured yesterday by being hit
by flying missile thrown by a blast
some workmen fired. He now lies at

The deplorable accident occurred early
in the afternoon. gang of men We're at
work excavating for the foundation for a
dam to be built for the Butte & Boston

two or three days. All during this time
the men have been greatly annoyed by
the children of the people living in the To-
cality who crowd around and give the
workmen great difficulty in keeping them
at a safe distance Shortly after noon
yesterday round of holes were charged
and the men prepared to blast. The usual
number of children were around, and be-
fore touching the fuses the men drove
them back behind some box cars standing
on the railroad track at a safe distance,
where they We're told to stay until the
blast went off.
When everyone was safely away the
blast was fired. Just as it went off little
Frankie Cash came along leading his
smaller sister. They were on their way
to East Butte and disregarded the warn
ing. Before the workmen observed them
they walked out in the open and at that
instant the explosion occurred. They We're

Joke on the Major.

From the Buffalo News
The major, just returned from Boston,
tells in strict confidence this story
II had engaged my berth and was
standing on the rear platform five min
utes before the train pulled out of the Park
Square depot, when a middle-aged wo-
man and a handsome girl. both ladies'
passed me and entered the car accompa-
MED by gentlemanly looking chap who
carried their baggage. A moment later
this fellow rushed up to me and said he
was in most embarrassing position. had
his sister and mother aboard and had lost

to them and give me any security for S25.

security but would give him $10-all [
had to spare. He insisted on giving me
his diamond scarfDin. and then rushed
into the station to see if he could get
more cash. AS the train pulled out with
out him he came running wildly after it,
but had to give it up.
"Then the porter approached me ten
tatively: Was that man annoying you?'
he said. I told him no. He insisted on
carrying the baggage of two ladies inside
sab, an-an--did he get any money out
of you?
"'Of course he didn't said l. but took

TROUBLES AT WARDNER
Will Not Be Discussed at the
Labor Convention,
RIOTERS NOT MEMBERS
Western Federation Of Miners Will Not
Take Cognizance of Affairs in
Cuur d'Alenes- Work
Laid Out.

The Western Federation of Miners,
which will meet in Salt Lake TODAY.
will not take up the Wardner troubles,
according to reports. The Salt Lake
Herald says Edward Boyce, president of
the federation, and whom the paper
further desgnates as ''One of Montana's
state senator's" declined to be :nter-
viewed, but from a member of the ex-
ecutive committee it was learned that
it is not the purpose of the federation
to take up the Wardner affair
The convention has nothing to do with
the conflict at Wardner. The men en-
gagged in that conflict We're not mem
bers of the federation, consequently it
cannot take official cOgnzance of it,
From $50 to 200 delegates will be in
attendance at the convention, which adj
mits representatives from the suborli~
nate organizations of both the West
ern Federation of Miners and the West
ern Labor union, the latter Organizatio
having been formed at the convention
held in Salt Lake one year ago, and
designed to embrace all tradesmen and
mechanics, other than miners, within
its scope, all of whom work under the
general laws, rules and regulations pro-
mulgated by the representatives who
meet in joint session once year for
the purpose of legislating in the inter-
ests Of all.
The Western Labor union was effect
ed for the purpose of croWding out the
American Federation in this territory,
it being felt that the West had been I'M
fairly treated by the larger organiza-
ton.
The delegates to this convention rep
resent a membership of between 81, 900
and 10000 men, and, as the younger Or
ganiza tion-the Western Labor union
is hardly in good working order yet, it
is expected that the greater part of the
work of the approaching session will
relate to the upbuilding of that branch.
These organizations embraced the whole
western part of the country, from Colo
RADIO to California, and from the gulf of
Mexico to Alaska, including the British
possessions.

Steamer Sandwich Cutters,
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.

From the PhlIadeIphla Inquirer.
Many of the ocean liners are now
provided with a very ingenious machine
for turning out large quantities of
bread and butter or sandwiches The
slicer will cut either meat or bread,
and the bread can be sliced without
buttering, il desired. The machine cuts
and buffers GO slices minute, and with
its aid 5000 sandwiches have been made
in two hours. 1t does not matter
whether the bread is stale or fresh: the
thickness can be graded to anything
the operator wishes, and the quantity
of butter to be added with equal GER
tainty and uniformity. One movement
of the hand spreads the butter and cuts
off the slice of bread.

phed, without modification, to the
troops serving in the West Indies was
by no means adapted for use in trop-
zeal cline.
Caused Disease.
IF this be true, the unfitness of the
ration should have manifested itself
by its failure to keep the troops which
subsisted upon it in the best possible
condition for serving in hot climates.
This, in the opinion of the court, is
fully established in evidence. The in
sufficiency of the food supply in Cuba
and the irregularity attending upon it's
distribution. due primarily to a mark
ed deficiency in transportation facili-
ties and to the conditions of the weather
and roads, appeared to some extent as
causes of disease among the troops
who were thus insufficiently and irreg-
ularly subsisted.'

The Beet Sugar Industry,

The year now drawing to a close has
Witnessed phenomenal development OF
the beet sugar industry in the United
States. The number of factories has
doubled within the year. The New York
Commercial in a statistical review Of the
industry has this to say:
"In 1898 there were 10 factories with a
total daily capacity of $3.50 tons. In
1890 there were 81 factories with total
daily capacity of 1880 tons. During
the season of 1898 80 the Is factories
produced 32,47l tons, and during 1899.
1900 the 81 factories are expected to turn
out 10000 tons of sugar. Many addi-
tional factories with largely increased
capacities are planned for 1900 1901"
The beet sugar campaign is short
one. 1t usually commences in Septem-
Der and is over by March. The only
state giving a bounty is New York,
amounting to 1c per pound. In this
country sugar beets are grown protita bly,
in New York, Illinois, Michigan, Mime
sofa, Nebraska, New Mexico, Colorado,
Washington, Oregon and California
The business was inaugurated in Cali
fornia. Oregon and Washington have
only recently taken up the enterprise.
Other states will soon be added. Con-
corning the further enlargement of the
industry, the New York Commercial
says:
Recently company was formed in
Ohio, the DAYTON Beet Sugar Company,
with capital OF $4,000. Kansas is also
to raise sugar beets, and at Fort Scott,
that state, the Fort Scott Beet Sugar Co.
has been incorporated with a capital of
$500 900, and is contracting with neigh
boring farmers for beet acreage, The
farmers in the vicinity of Bowling Green,
KY, and those near Aberdeen, Miss, are
greatly interested in experimental plots,
as are also the tillers of the soil near
Des Moines, Iowa, and The formation of
companies for the erection of factories at
those points is expected. In South Da.
kota, Indiana, Pennsylvania and some
New England states, factories are prom
Used to be in operation during 1900"
The crop has proved more profitable in
the long run than almost any other pro-
duet of the field, and it is only ques-
ton OF time when the agriculturists close
to the factories will see that the sugar
beet pays well for any trouble it may &C.

LOST FOOT,

The 1o-year-old son of James Erwin
residing at $50 east Sixth street was run
over by a B., A. & P. freight train two
miles east of Anaconda late yesterday at
ternoon and lost his right foot at he
ankle. The boy with other playmates
went down the track to a point near he
ranch when they met a heavy
loaded ore train coming toward Ana
conda. The train vas not going fast and
the boys undertook to board it. In do
ing so Erwin fell under the wheels,
George Shook, who resides near where
the accident occurred, saw the bow fan
under the wheels and ran to Ervin's as
.sistance. He picked him up and carried
him to the wagon road, where he hailed a
carriage. Arriving in the city DR.. ST.
Jean was consulted who ordered the bow
to st. AIMS hospital. The train
men and railroad company are blameless.
