Patrick Fox Was Instantly
Killed Yesterday.
BIG ROCK FELL ON HIM
Head Was Crushed to Pieces--WaS a
veteran Soldier and an Old Time
Resident of Butte.

Fatrlck Fox was instantly killed by a
fall of ground at the Bell mine about 4
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. Fox was
employed IN the mine as a shoveler. He
was working on the third floor of the 1900
lever, when a piece of rock, weighing
ABOUT 500 pounds gave way from the
breast of the fourth floor and crashed
trough the floor just above where the
victim was at work, the edge Of the rock
striking Fox on the head, crushing his

crash, and saw the rock come through

and the big boulder lifted from it's un-
fortunate victim. The remains were

where an inquest will. be held this even
ing.
The ground in the ~neighborhood of the
place where the fall occurred has been
considered safe and several of the en-
ployes who were working near the place
expressed surprise that the rock should
give way at this place.
The dead man was about SIS years of
age and had been employed in the mines
OF the Anaconda company for the past
10 years. He was a native Of Ireland but
a come to the United States when
quite young. He a served in the wal
of the rebellion, coming west Immediately
after the war, and had resided in Butte
about 20 years.
Fox was a member of Lincoln Post, No.
2, Grand Army of the Republic, Of his
City, was in good standing at the time of
his death and was highly respected by
his veteran comrades of the post. As a
soldier his record was an excellent one.
He was with Gen. Phil Sheridan during
the civil war, and possessed three honor
able discharges, two during the civil war
n one for service in the regulars after
the war. These discharges show that he
participated in twenty-seven general en-
gagements and pitched battles, and that
he vas a gallant soldier. He left the serv-
ice as a second sergeant. His remains will
be inferred in the Grand Army cemetery
with mil.ntary honors

POLICE COURT.

John Crowley. a little man, who looked
big and avenging to J. j.. Scott, city
dog catcher, over the barrel and from
tho business end of a 44-caliber six
shooter, was in police court this morning
n pleaded not guilty to the charge OF
carrying concealed weapons. Crowley
denied that he drew a gun on the dog
catcher, and minated that the roubles
of that official have given him hallucina-
tons Of a peculiar character. The cpl
sode will be aired Friday afternoon.
William White. who fought on Lower
Main street last night, did not appear
this morning and his $25 bond was for
feited.
John Kelly was e~ndeavoring to show
Tom Tower how Kid Mccoy was knocked
out. Deyotte's saloon was the scene of
the p~antomime. Kelly became too real

placed at a sum equal to one dollar per
capita for each member of the order, and
that the same be collected in quarterly

order to be in the following conditions:

HELD UP THE STAGE.
BANDITS SECURE ABOUT 5000 IN
GOLD DUST

The stage between Salmon City and
Red Rock was held up at noon yesterday
half a mile inside the Idaho line, 80
miles from Dillon, by four men. H. r.
Reilney. manager of the dredge company,
working on the old McNutt property,
near Salmon City. Idaho, was a passen-
ger. He had more than $4,000 in gold
dust which he was bringing to Dillon.
The robbers secured it and then mounted
their horses, which We're concealed in the
timber, and escaped. Sheriff Pyle and
Deputy Stoler have left for Bannack in
pursuit.
The road makes a sharp turn where
the robbery occurred. A deep gulch
crossing the road made a good hiding
place. There is heavy timber on the
upper side. 1t is reported in Dillon that
Reilney offers $500 reward. The chances
of capture are very slim. The region is
mountainous and uninhabited.

SUCH IS FAME.
A Small Schoolgirl Gets the Hero of
Manila Into a Bad
MIX Up.

One Of the most popular Of the young pro-
fessors in the male high school tells an
amusing little story on a small, up-to-date
schoolgirl She went to one OF these dis
triet schools over which a cousin of the
professor presides. 1t is usual to have WIS.,
itors at the building now and then, who
ask the scholars questions and see that
everything is in good shape. One day not
so long since a party of callers came IN and
requested the pupils to write the answers to
several questions propounded them One of
these questions was: Tell what you know
about Admiral Dewey's great fight"
The children set to work figuring on their
answers, but the teacher noticed one of the
girls did not make move to do so.
why don't you write your answer to the
question:" she demanded OF the idle pupil.
faint no use, was the slow response.
Il don't know nothing about il.
But" demonstrated the teacher, you
must try, anyhow; you must not sit there
idle while the others are doing the best
they can. See if you cannot think OF some
thing, my dear"
No use" protested the pupil. "All know
is that Dewey and Corbett fought, and /
don't know which whipped, and don't care
either"
Such is fame, and the bold sailor who
sunk Montojos feet must go promenading

You are in no danger of being sick if
you keep your kidneys well.
They filter your blood, keep it pure

Your other organs may need care, but
your kidneys most, because they do
most.
If You are sick, begin with your kid

they viii help all the other organs to
health.
The treatment of some diseases may

kidney disease.

umph of the nineteenth century; dis

How a Joshing Judge Sailed Down

William Lightfoot Visseher tells this char.
acteristic story of Hon. Isaac Parker, famous
as the terrible Judge at Fort Smith, Ark,
who probably sentenced more men to be ex-
ecuted than any other judge that ever lived.
This was not, however, because he was so
unrelentingly severe, but because he bad
the hardest and most numerous lot OF Grim
inals to deal with that ever came within the
jurisdiction of such an official. One day
when there was an unusually large batch OF
culprits to be sentenced, the judge looked
compasisonately over his spectacles at one
young scamp, and said:
In consideration of the youth and in
experience of this prisoner shall let him of
with fine of $50"
Before the Judge had done speaking the
very fresh young man coolly stretched his
right leg and ran his hand into his trousers
pocket on one side, remarking nonchalantly
as he did so:
That's all hunky, judge; I've got that
much right here IN my jeans"
And one year in the penitentiary," con

convict in quizzical sort OF way, he added:
