Chicago Butcher Pushes His Wife Into the
Like

Isnkt,
Albert Becker. the Chicago butcher
who has been in custody a week on
suspicion of having murdered his first
wife, Teresa Becker, broke down
Thursday night under the long-con-
tinued s-questions of the police
and made n complete confession.
II killed her on January 81" said
Becker, defantly. 1--WE were walking
on the Randolph street viaduct and
began quarreling. / became angry
and threw her into the lake. Then l
went home"
The love of another woman, which
prompted Becker to kill Teresa Beck
er, was apparently the cause of the
butchers confession.

He Shoes Horses.

Doubtless the best equipped general
blacksmith shop in Anaconda is the
Turf horseshoeing shop, which is To-
Gated in the old fire hall on Oak street,
between Commercial and Park avenues
The old fire station makes an ideal
building for the purpose to which it
has been put and Mr. William Nc
Eachern, the proprietor, has cause 10
congratulate himself upon his choice
of location.
Horseshoeing is the principal point on
which Mr.. McEachern prides himself
AS a fashioner and filter of shoes Cor
horses feet it is doubtful whether -hs
equal of Mr.. McEachern can be found in
the state. From the most delicate rim
upon the dainty foot of the racer to
the heaviest shod hoof of the draught
horse, the work turned out by the
Turf testifies to the fact that those who
conduct the business are past masters
in the art.
Besides the horseshoeing department,
a general blacksmithing business is
done. and there is a carriage, wagon
and repair shop in connection-the high
standard of perfection set in the shoe
ing branch being fully observed in all
of these. Those who have work in Mr..
McEachern's line can patroniZe him
with. the assurance that the returns
will be entirely satisfactory.

The Samoan Precedent,

The formal signature on Saturday at
Washington of the treaty arrangement
regarding Samoa will no doubt be effect
i've in putting an end to the violence and
strife which have prevailed on the islands
for many years past. But the event should
not be allowed to pass from the public
mind without recalling the fact that that
arrangement is in direct contravention to
the attitude borne from the outset by this
government toward the autonomous
rights of the islands. Our intervention in
Samoa was at all times dictated by the
avowed determination of the United
States not to permit the division of Sa-
moan territory among European powers
We never had any other mission there.

Up at Silver lake and Gold Coin they
have snow long before it falls in Ana
conda. They also have other things
up there, "fisheaters," for instance
which term is the current appellation
bestowed upon Nova Scotians and other
gentlemen from that region, where fish
ing is such a prominent industry.
A week or so ago there was con-
siderable fall of snow, in fact so much
snow fell that the Silver Takers and
Gold Coiners were constrained to call
into their service snowshoes, in order
that they might progress with the
greater ease and rapidity. Now. every
body who has seen the imprint of an
Indian snowshoe in the snow-they use

that two recently arrived "isheaters'

objects, until finally happy thought

DEATH OF 0. p. MeMAINS.
Fer twenty Years He Fought the own
erS OF the Maxwell Land Grant,

o p. McMsins, who for twenty years
fought the battles OF the settlers on the
Maxwell land grant, lies dead OF con.
sumption 1t StOnewsil, thirty miles
south OF Trinidad, Colo.
Mr, McMalns was n OF the best
known men OF southern Colorado.
Twenty years ago he became interested
In the cause OF the Maxwell land grant
settlers. He believed they we're being
ugjustly deprived Of their homes on the
grant by tho operations OF Its foreign
owners, and since that time he has been
indefatlgable In his labOrs ia behalf Of
those settlers. He carried their cases TO
the highest tribunals-frOm the lower
courts TO the interior department, TO the
supreme court OF the United States, and
through his efforts even congress gave
consideration TO the claims OF the
settlers. Beaten at almost every turn,
he recently lost his health, II not his
indOmltsble spirit, and IL may be justly
said OF him that he sacrificed the best
years Of his life in aiding the people
whose cause he considered Just.
AZ first he attacked the validity OF the
title to the Maxwell grant, and he did
not cease until congress declared the
title good. Since that time he has
sought to have the settlers reimbursed
for the loss OF the homes which they had
taken up within the boundaries OF the
grant at a time when they had every
reason for considering the lands a part
OF the public domain.
In the Twelfth general assembly OF
Colorado, Just adjourned, Mr.. McMRins
caused 10 be introduced q resolution
calling upon congress 10 reopen the case
Ot the settlers The resolution was
passed. And perhaps Il ends there.
This wa Mr.. McMains' last move. He
went TO his home at StOnewall and news
Of his death there last Saturday has Just
been received,
During his long fight ia behalf Of the
settlers he repeatedly used money which
he earned in other work in carving
on their cause. He was 90 years OF age,

DEATH IN AN ENGINE PIT.
John C.. Foley Found Dead at Williams,
Arizona.

Arizona.
John C. Foley, formerly a section hand
on the Santa Ne Pacific. was found dead
in an engine pit at Williams, Arizona,
the other day. The Williams News, In
its account OF the death, says:
Judge Brooks wss notified and imme-
diately empanelled a cOroner's jury.
which rendered a verdict that the de-
ceased, John c. Foley. came to his death
by falling into the pit while in an intOx
icated condition. Foley had been for a
long time employed by the santa Re Pa.
cidc as a section hand. and had been
noted as q hard drinker. His plan was
to work on the road until he would get
quite q sum OF money ahead and then
come into town and go on a protracted
drunk. He had been drinking around
town, in fact drunk, for the past week or
ten days. The last seen Of him was
about 4 o'clock Thursday evening by Nd
Twitty, who saw him pass around to the
north side OF the ro~undhouse, aud at this
time he was very drunk. Ii is supposed
that 1t was about this time that he came
to his death, but As lone OF the men are
often around that portion OF the
%roundhouse 1t is easily seen how 1t was
that he was not found until Saturday
morning. He had OF late been working
for j. \. Mcdonald in one OF the Saginaw
camps, and all the personal history that
is known OF the poor unfortunate is that
he was q native Of Kingston, Canada"
