TRADED WIVES IN KLONDIKE.
Anaconda Couple Took Part in a Ro-
mantle Episode-Well Known in
This Vicinity.

Especial to the Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, June A special dispatch
from Tacoma and printed in San
Francisco paper was read with consider
able interest in this city.
The dispatch reads af follows:
'In 1893 J. r. Seesholtz. of Tacoma,
started for the Klondike. his wife agree
ing to follow short time later. On the
trail Seesholtz met Mitchell Picken and
his wife of Anaconda. They became
quite friendly, particularly Mrs. Pickell
and Mrs. SeeshOltz.
'Seesholtz lived with the Pickells and
the friendship of the Tacoma tailor and
the Montana woman became stronger.
Finally they astonished Pickell by de-
claring that they were in love and re-
Questing him to get out Of the way of
their union. Pickell took the announce
ment calmly and inquired in what way
he was to be compensated. They sug-
gested that he marry Mrs. Seesholtz.
Pickell demanded that she should be
sent for at once.
Mrs. Seesholtz arrived but did not
like the idea of changing at first.
Finally. she gave her consent and urged
that the trade be made promptly Sees
holtz and Pickell set out to the United
States and secured divorces. Then fol-
lowed two marriages.
''Seesholtz traded a wife of thirty for
a woman ten years older, while Pickell,
who had been mated to woman several

years his senior, secured a new wife Of
his own age. They lived together in
Alaska and came out determined to go
into business together. They did not
agree. however. and soon went back to
Klondike, while Seesholtz and wife are
now conducting q tailoring establish
ment at San Francisco
Pickell's relatives still reside on Cedar
street in this city and are probably the
only ones here, excepting the few who
saw the above dispatch, that ever
knew OF the strange but novel transfer
related from Tacoma.
Everyone who lived in Anaconda in
1898 knew Mitch" Pickell, as he was
called. In that year he was a deputy
under ex-Sheriff Fitzpatrick, and prior
to that filled the position Of constable
for several years. During the time that
Henry Redmond filled the office Of mayor
he was chief Of police and was con-
sidered to be an excellent o.1cer in every
respect. He was married in Anaconda
to a girl by the name of Baker, whose
parents were residents of this city, but
who have since gone to Alaska.

young men employed at the general
office, have decided that an outdoor life
would be more conducive to their gen.
eral health and comfort, and accordingly
purchased a complete camping outfit
last week and pitched permanent
camp on Peter Levengoods ranch, thre .
miles west of town. The young men
possess excellent horses and thus find it
comparatively easy to go to and from
their work.
Last Sunday. as the story goes, a
number of residents from the city Wis
tied the camp, and Messrs. FalOrt and
johnson, bent upon being at least hos
pitable, endeavored to show their skill
i'll the culinary art, for the benefit Of the
visitors. 1t is because of this they say
that the stove pipe became SO hot as to
set fire to the outside fly. Before the
flames We're discovered they had gained
considerable Roadway. Although the
owners of the camp shed their coats and
fought most valiantly their efforts were
useless and with perspiration pouring
from them they were compelled to wit
ness the destruction of their home. while

christ was allowed the privilege of tn.
| floor and spoke in behalf Of the petition
| which was presented to the council by

| Alderman Williams offered a resolu-
ton to draft an ordinance to prohibit

OPEN MEETINGS
CENTRAL COUNCIL STARTS AN
INNOVATION.
OUTSIDE PUBLIC MAY ATTEND.
Plan to Celebrate Labor Day With
Grand Picnic-All the Workmen and
Their Wives and Families Will Join
in Celebration-Parade, Sports and
Great Holiday.
Especial to Inter Mountain.)

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, June AIT a meeting of
the Central Labor Council Of Anaconda,
held last night in Silver hall, 1t was de-
cided by that body to celebrate Labor
day in manner BETTING the occasion.
The programme will be, parade
through the streets of the city in the
forenoon and picnic, athletic sports,
etc, in the afternoon. 1t was not
definitely decided as to where the pic
mic should be held, but 1t will in all
probability be held at Mountain View
park.
Some of those present were in favor OF
making a demonstration during the an
unal convention of the State Federation
of Labor, which will be held in Anaconda
some time during the month of August.
Because of the fact that large number
of the different unions will be unable
to get away at that time. it was con-
cluded to celebrate Labor day, which
falls on the second of September.
Considerable discussion arose as to the
Kind of weather usually prevailing in
September, some thinking 1t would snow
others that it would rain and still others
maintaining that nice weather was the
rule.
Last nights meeting of the council
marks an epoch in the history of that
organization. 1t was formerly known as
the Deer Lodge Trades and Labor AS
sembly, and as long as it has been in
existence, has never held an open ses-
sions before last night. After this, open
meetings will be held on the first and
third Mondays in each month, and as
the Central Labor council is representa-
tive of 1900 workers in this city, COM
prising % different unions, their doings
will undoubtedly be watched with much
interest by the outside public.
One lady, Mrs. Peckham, has the
honor of sitting In the council as rep
resentative of the Cigar Makers union.
The president Of the newly named and
reorganized body is s. e. Gosnell of the
Typographical union. AS is easily in
ferred, the idea of holding open sessions
Is to interest the general public to such
an extent as to bring them to watch the
doings of each separate union and of the
Central Labor Council as representative
of all the unions.

that system he thought the wage matte,
was too uncertain, and asked for sat
airy Of $3.50 per month, or instead, offer
ed to sell his outfit to the city for $40O
The matter was settled by instructions
being given to the street commissioners
to give the gentleman work Of some
other kind on Indictment days.
The report Of the city treasurer showed
the collections for the month for the
general fund to have been as follows:
Licenses, $685.; police court fines for Go
tober. December, March and April. $40;
police court fines for May, $3.50; impound-
