A PARSONAGE
DYNAM|TED.
House Occupied BY Respectable. sColorcd
Prcachsrsat Madisonville.
ATTEMPT TO TERRoRlZE
sUppOSGD NON.UNl0N MINERS
Preacher S lid to Have Been Threatened For
His Attitude on tn: Question.

The parsonage Of the colored
Methodist Church, at Madison
vile, occupied Ivy the preacher,
j. II. Hightower, was dynamited
Sunday night about 10 80 o'clock.
Dynamite was put under the
kitchen in two places. The eX-
plosions shattered the sills under
the rear part of the house and
smashed and scattered the con-
tents of the kitchen. Kitchen
utensils and crockery ware were
blown around promiscuously.
Occupants of the house went out
Immediately after the explosion
but no one could be seen. Tracks
were discovered about next
morning.
Rev. Hightower is said to have
been threatened heretofore for
his attitude in favoring the work
ing miners of Hopkins county all
of whom are non-union men.
Yesterday two colored boys ar
rived at Madisonville and went
to the parsonage. 1t is believed
that these men were thought by
the dynamiters to have come for
the purpose sof working at the
mines. No other reason can be
assigned to this vicious attack.
1t is discovered, however, that
they were not there for that pur-
pose. One of them had gone to
Madisonville to take employment
with DR.. w. S. Ross, so the doc
tor tells THE Bee,
This trick of dynamiting has
been attempted upon houses oc-
cupied by industrious miners a
number of times in Hopkins and
Webster counties since the agis
tators camped at Madisonville in
November with the avowed pur-
pose of closing the busy mines of
of these counties by fair means
or otherwise. And thus far all
the cowardly dynamiters have
gotten off with whole hides.
Such scoundrels cannot always
go scot free and their reward
must certainly await them.

RICH STRIKE ON RESERVATION
Cracker Mine in the Land of the
Blackfoot Indians May Prove
Good Thing,
Especial to Inter Mountain.)


Kalfspell, July 26.-Men in the city
from the coded strip of the Blackfeet
reservation bring news of rich strike
in the Cracker mine, one of the proper
ties of the Michigan & Montana Copper
Mining & Smelling company. in which
several residents Of kalispell are holders
of large block of stock.
The manager has refused to make
public the assays, but that they run
nigh is shown by the fact that he has
stated that it is smelling ore, and
that he has announced his intention Of
employing so more miners as soon as he
can make arrangements to supply air
to the mine.
1t is known that II feet of ore has
already been uncovered. without reach
ing the further wall. and the people of
the district are jublant.
The new manager Of the company Is
very conservative man, who will not
make any predictions. but it seems GER
tain that the late strike is a good one
and the best ever made on the strip.
Sam Sumes and II. Powell arrived in
the city from Allyn last night and speak
highly of the bright prospects of the
mine Mr.. Howell is a miner of many
years experience, and says that the ore
found in the recent strike is rich in cop
per and that the mine is no longer a
prospect bat as good a paying plant as
can be found in the state.
DR.. Macdonald II. G. Strickland, Oloff
Peterson and number of other resi-
dents of Kalispell are interested in the
Cracker mine and are naturally elated
over the good showing.
A number of samples of the recent
strike have been received in kalispell
and bear out the claims that have been
made as to the fine quality of tho ore.
