IN MEMORY OF TILLY.

In the reception room of the First
Presbyterian church at Helena is a brass
tablet, erected in memory Of Captain
George H. Tilly, who was murdered by
treacherous natives at Escalantc, in the
Philippines, recently. When The news of
his death reached Helena a memorial
service was held at the church, of which
he had so long been a member, and the
suggestion was made in a letter from the
former pastor. Rev. T.. V. Moore, who
had known Tilly so well, that a fund be
begun for the erection OF a permanent
tribute to his services to his country and
his fellOW-man.
The suggestion was acted upon and a
u n of 5000 was raised. says the Inde-
pendent. The tablet was put in place
two weeks ago. 1t is of polished brass,
chased with an appropriate design and
bearing the inscriptions:
I'm memory of Captain George Her
bert Tilly, u. S. v. signal corps; born
February, %, 1863; died in the service of
his country May q, 1899, at Escalante.
Island of Negros, Philippine islands.
This tablet is erected by his many
friends in loving remembrance of his
noble virtues, steadfast Integrity and
faithful performance Of every duty"

CALUMET N nECLA.

~
It has been reported that the Calumet
& Hecla would Immediately increase its.
output very largely; that it was already
stamping 10000 tons of rock daily; that
it would begin opening it's Kearsage lode
this summer: that it was ready to do
business at 16 cents per pound for cop
pers; and that it had sold a very large
consignment at 16A cents. n had agreed
to give a rebate in case an immediate de-
cline in the market occurred.
1t Is stated on Boston authority that
not one Of the above reports is true. The
management of the Calumet & Hecla
company does not contemplate any more
than it's normal increase of ~ per cent.
during the current year. and as the
worlds output, as a whole, increases
about 10 per cent. on the average, the
Calumet & Hecla company apparently
does not want any more than it's share.
The officials OF this company expect to
see higher prices for copper in the imme-
dlate future, and the claim that its
books are open for business at is cents
is made out OF whole cloth.

COPPER IN WESTERN MONTANA.

The owners Of several promising copper
properties near Bonita IN Missoula
county are feeling jubilant over the re-
suit of recent development work on the
claims. w. p. Simpler one of the owners
of the Copper Cliff mine arrived in Butte
a few days ago with two carloads OF COP
per ore of very high grade. the returns
from which were very satisfactory. It
Is understood that regular shipments will
be made in the future. The mines. how
ever. are not developed yet to such an
extent that n large shipments can be
made, so that it is not anticipated that
the new copper district will have much
influence in depreeiating the price of
copper.
