GENTRY'S DOG SHOW.
A STREET PARADE TODAY-WILL
BE HERE FOUR DAYS.

Gentry's dog show arrived in the city
this morning and the first parade was
held at II o'clock. The streets were
thronged, the children seeming to be the
most interested, and wherever the little
horses, the dogs, the monkeys and the
baby elephant Pinto made their appear
'ance the cries of delight of the children
resounded on all sides. The wagons were
surrounded by a yelling mob of urchins
all through the parade.
: Gentry's show is so we'll known in
Butte that it seems unnecessary to go
into details. The attractions, however,
are of a higher order this year, several
new features being added. Professor
Gentry has developed his dogs so that
they perform wonders. His new features
this year are the trained elephants of
diminutive size, which perform all man
ner of tricks to the great delight of the
children. The show will be here four
days, and there will be two perform
ances daily-at 2:30 and $3.50 p. m. The
tents are situated at the corner of Galena
and Jackson streets.

ODD ~PERSONAGES.

Tucked away in quaint old world cor
ners we find some of the most odd per-
sonages. Such is the great artificial eye
maker and painter, A. Miller Hyper. In
quaint Lauscha, in the very heart of old
T~huringen's dense forests and high
mountains, he sits and works away day
in and day out, surrounded by his fam
lily, the male members of which are all
experts in this delicate work, and have
been such since the days of his great
grandfather, who first started the work
at Paris, but who, owing to the strong
anti-German feeling, was forced to return
to his native mountain land. They have
grown rich, but lead simple, quiet lives.
While the writer sat in front of Mr.. Hip
per he deftly mixed different colored
glasses over his gas lamp, and within half
an hour brought forth a perfect repro
duction, in everything but real sight, of
the writer's eye. Every year thousands
of eyes made by this old world family
find their way to America.

His Hand Came in Contact With
a Live Wire.
WAS INSTANTLY KILLED
An Electric Light Wire, Improperly
Insulated, Was the Cause of
the Fatality.

Joseph Grill, a young man who con-
Quoted a saloon at No. 436 Watson ave-
nue., was instantly killed Saturday even
ing by coming in contact with a live wire.
About 8 O'Clock Saturday evening Grill
had occasion to go into the cellar under
the saloon for some supplies. He had
been in the cellar but a short time when
those in the saloon distinctly heard some
one in the cellar cry out, as though in
pain. They ran down and found the cell
lar in darkness. A light was procured,
and Grill was found lying on the ground
apparently ~lifeless. The body was at
once removed to Cribs rooms, above the
saloon, and DR.. Campbell sent for, al
though it was apparent to Cribs friends
that he was dead. On the doctors arrival
a close examination of the body was
made n the only wound that could be
found was on the right hand, between
the thumb and forefinger, where a little
hole had been burned through the flesh
to the bone, and the physician was of the
opinion that death had resulted from the
deceased coming in contact with a live
wire.
An investigation Of the cellar partially
corroborated this theory. In the cellar
is an electric light attached to a long
wire, in some places of which the insula-
ton is worn off. and it is thought that
Grill, in moving about with his hand on
the wire, came in contact with this place,
and as the bottom of the cellar was
somewhat damp, the circuit was closed
and he received a shock which killed him.
Coroner Phil Julien was notified and
the body was removed to Sherman's I'M
dertaking rooms, where an inquest will
be held later.
Grill was about % years Of age and
was a native of Austria. He was single

either a gravity tramway or an under

Of the real estate was made by the ad-
ministrator, John f. Richards. The prop
erty had been appraised at a value Of
$11, 900 by a commission appointed by the
court, but the return showed that the
amount realized was greater. The prop
erty consisted Of the lot on which the
new Coin building, on West Broadway,
stands, inc two lots in Noyes & Upton's
addition. The return Of the administra-
tor showed that the two latter had been
sold by another person prior to the APP
pointment of Mr.. Richards, and the sale
confirmed by the latter. For this reason
the court doubted its jurisdiction to con-
firm the return and ordered another deal
to be made. AS Mr.. Richards sold the
West Broadway lot, the judge confirmed
that deal.
