Mining Congress Now Assured-La-
dies Who Aided Fir. Callahan.
Monday evening the Business Mems
association of Butte held the most en-
thusiasuc and best attended meeting of
many months. OF course the chief
topic Of debate was the international
mining congress, the next meeting of
which viii be held in this city next
year. The fact has been brought to the
attention Of the citizens that unless
something is done soon there will be
no meeting here and the pledge given
at Boise cannot be redeemed. If the
interest displayed Monday evening is a
criterion, there viii be little difficulty
now in raising the requisite amount
and for the first time since the move
ment was begun there is something
tangible to work upon.
PERHAPS the most encouraging report
made was that of Henry Mueller
IN regard to his interview with
the heads of the several mining COM
panieS. This committee" said Mr..
Mueller. has seen Mr.. Scallon of the
Anaconda company and he informed
IS that he had consulted with the
heads of other mining corporations and
that they could be counted upon TO do
their share and a little more Mr.
Scallon told us to pass our subscription
list around among the business men of
Butte ana if it was shown that thew
really wanted this mining congress
they could expect assistance from the
mining companies. He did not feel
that II would result in any great bene-
mt to his company, but viewed it in the
light Of a pledge given that should be
redeemed. The word of the com
munity has been given and the prom
Use must be fulfilled"

the Sacred Heart church. in recogni-
ton Of the services of four ladies who

con at the parish residence, ad-
joining the church. The honor shown
the four ladies, who are Mrs. Edward
Hickey. Mrs. Lulu Largely Mrs. P ].

very happy vein and Compimented
them on their successful efforts. which
have provided a house of worship that
was greatly needed in consequence of
St Patrick's rapidly growing congrega-
ton. Father Larkin of All Hallows
responded in behalf of the ladies' |
Others made speeches and the con-
Nersation was general in regard to the |
work Of the parish.
When the dignitaries of the Roman |
Catholic church were confronted with |
the necessity of more room. even |
though st. Patricls had been enlarged |
10 meet the demand, Mrs. Brophy and /
Elrs Mediation were chosen to present |
the matter TO all friends of the church |
with view OF securing donations for !
a new church. At once they set at |
work and Mrs Largely literally aided .
and encouraged them at the outset by
giving her check for $4,000 Other
members of the church and citizens
contributed and it was no time before
Mrs. Brophy and Mrs. Mediation
turned in a sum total OF SIS, 600. In adj
ditiOn, Mrs. Edward Hickey gave a
deed to valuable real estate on East
Park street, on which the church was
built, estimated to be worth $4,000
