FELL FIVE HUNDRED FEET.
Workman In the Adriconac Mine In
stantly Killed.

Butte, Dec. 19.-John Mclaughlin,
was instantly killed at the Adriconac
mine north of this city today. The
present work at the mine consists of
repairing the shaft, and Mclaughlin
and John Delaney were employed in
lining the shaft from the 100 foot
level up to the surface. Delaney was
at the 100 level, Mclaughlin was up
about As feet. He passed from the
main way out into the working shaft
and in some way missed his footing
and fell down the shaft to the $50
foot level. Mclaughlin had only
worked eight shifts at the mine. Lit
tie is known of him, as he had only
been in Butte short time. He was
about 35 years of age and came to
Butte from California. The Adriconac
mine is the property of James A..
Murray.

FOR NEWS TAKE THE BEE.
STRIKE MAY SPREAD.
Santa Fe Brakemen' and Switchmen
May Go Out.


May Go Out.
Topeka, Kan, Dec. 18.-Santa Fe
switchmen and brakemen here say
they will strike if the demands of the
telegraph operators are not granted
by Third Vice-President Barr. The
conductors announce that they will
stay by the road, but it is thought
that they will be induced to join in
the strike if one is ordered. The en-
gineers and firemen have not said
whether or not they would strike.
Considerable pressure has been
brought to bear on them, and they
show much sympathy with the strik-
ers.
The Santa Fee officials are said to
be endeavoring to hire brakemen and
switchmen conditionally, who shall
take the places of the men that go
out. 1t is probable that the result
of the conference in Chicago between
the strike officials and the officials of
the road will not be known for two
days, and in the meantime the brake
men and switchmen are preparing to
go out in sympathy soon after the re-
fusal of the officials to grant the de-
mand of the operators ii such is the
case. The strikers profess to be
more sanguine of success now than
they have been at any time since the
beginning of the strike.

INTERESTING
TESTIMONY
AT the West Point Hazinp
Inquiry.
SONS OF THEIR DADS
Give Testimony Concerning the Method
of Their Initiation Into the
Academy.

West Point, Dec. 19.-Some inter-
cadets at the military school here, in
esting testimony was brought out to-
day by the court of inquiry which is
investigating the alleged hazing of
connection with the recent death of
former Cadet Booz. Thirty-five ca
diets were examined during the morn
ing, and afternoon sessions and one
Ct these was brother of Lieutenant
Hobson, of the Merrimac fame, an
other was the son of General Phil
Sheridan, and third Mark Brooke of
Pennsylvania, nephew Of General
Brooke, who is the presiding officer
Of the court. All three told of the
hazing they got during the encamp-
ment of 1896. At that time Booze
was their classmate, and not one of
them said the treatment they received
or the things they had to do were
either brutal or degrading. Hobson's
worst ordeal was when he had to
stand on his head in bath tub in
which there was about ten inches of
water. He said he was partially
strangled, but was all right in a few
minutes, Young Phil Sheridan was
made to ride a broomstick along the
street in commemoration of his illus
trous fathers ride and had to keep
shouting Turn boys, turn" all the
time. He did not think this was
humiliation he said, although he did
not relish the task.

United States Slow.
London, Dec. 1S.-Great Britain's
proposed alteration in the preamble
of the joint note has been practically
accepted by all the powers, says the
Pekin correspondent of the Daily
Mail wiring Monday.
Both Russia and Japan, whose sup
port was regarded as doubtful, have
agreed. Only the attitude of the
United States remains as yet not
clearly defined, but the acquiescence
of America is anticipated, and it is
probable that the Joint note will be
signed and delivered to the Chinese
plenipotentiaries within three or
four days.
The German minister has warmly
supported the British proposal.

Won't WEIGH THE BADY.-No
Irish nurse will willingly weigh
baby, no matter what the doctor
may say or do. She will assure him
that she has weighed it; will tell
him its weight to the fraction of an
ounce but weigh it she will not,
for if she did it would surely die
within a year, she will tell you,
with a ring Of firm conviction in
her voice, and she will string off q
long list of babies she has known
that have been weighed and have
died.
There is another thing that she
cannot be induced to do, and that
is cut the nails Of baby before it
is three months old. If they grow
too long she bites them. Not that
she thinks the baby would die if she
cut them, but she knows that it
would grow up to be thief. Rea-
sons for this conviction of hers she
has none. No amount of coaxing
will induce her even to try to ex-
plain what honesty can possibly
have to do with uncut nails. But,
none the less, no charge of hers
ever has its nails cnt.
