THE KILLING OF ALEXANDER
Additional Incidents of Tuesdays
 Tragedy at Yuma.

Few additionel details were learned yesterday of the shooting of Constable Alexander at Yuma on Tuesday morn ing. Judge Street. who has been hold ing court at Yuma, and Judge Baker. who had been defending Alexander, charged with the murder of Mrs. J. J. Burns. returned yesterday morning fom Yuma.
 The tragic death of Alexander elim- mated from the docket the cases of Fain and Miller, whose trials were to follow his. They will now be granted a change of venue, which had been asked for on behalf of all three of the defendants.
 The circumstances of the shooting related by Judge Street and Judge Ba- ker were the same as those told in The Republican dispatches yesterday morning.
 Alexander was being taken From the court house to the penitentiary along with Fain and Miller, when he was stricken down. The bullet, a soft nosed rife ball of large calibre, entered his back on the right side and passed through his liver and bowels, cutting terrific and rough channel.
 A doctor who examined him a few moments later said that he was as good as dead. There was absolutely no hope. He must die at most within a very few days.
 The train on which Judge Street and Judge Baker came from Yuma left there at 8 o'clock yesterday morning. Alexander was then alive, though they learned at Maricopa that he was dead.
 Sam King. the brother of Mrs. Burns, was arrested, as has been stated, i'm mediately after the shooting The ex- citement was intense. All the senti- ment of Yuma was on the side of the Kings. Much of it had been latent un- til 1t was stirred up by this latter tragedy. In these circumstances it was plainly impossible to get together an unbiased jury for the trial of Miller and Fain. It was further believed that their lives would be in danger from an attack similar to the one made on Alexander.
 Some light has been thrown upon the animosity felt by the Kings against Fain. though he did not murder Mrs. | Burns and had no part in any of the | incidents leading up to that tragedy. | He was held responsible for perhaps | having induced Alexander to shoot, for |

THOMAS WILEY IS WANTED FOR
A HEINoUs CRIME COM
MITTED HERE.

ON DEFENCElESS GIRL
Requisition Papers Have Been Issued
and he Will be Brought Back
To Butte.

Thomas Wiley. a railroad brakeman,
for whom the authorities of this city
and county have been searching for
several months, is under arrest at Sc
dalia, Mo-. and if the Missouri governor
Will give him up he will be brought back
to Butte and tried for the alleged COM

man who at the time of the alleged as
s;.ult was suffering from severe at
tack Of typhoid-pneumonia In room in
the Thornton block in East Broadway.
Residents of Butte will probably re-
member the case of illness on account
Of the fact that the sick woman was be-
ing treated by Christian Scientist.
The newspapers made mention of it sew
eral times. because the patient had pre-
ferred the ministratons of the scientist
to the attendance of a physician. The
name by which she was known at that
time was Annie Callan.
1t is alleged that one day while the
girl was alone in her room, being SO i'll
at the time that she could hardly move.
Wiley entered her apartment and COM
mitted an assault upon her. He was
then employed as a brakeman on the
er the occurrence drew his wages and
left for parts unknown. He was known
here as Beattie, and had formed the ac-
ouaintance Of the girl while the latter
was acting as a waitress in restaurant
and he was boarding at the house.
Within few days after the assault DIR.
Sheerin was called to the house where
the sick girl was staying and instructed
to make an examination of the girl with
a view to ascertaining whether she had
teen assaulted. He made the desired
examina ton and reported in the affirm
alive, whereupon the county and city
authorities at once began a serach for
Wiley. kilograms We're sent to all parts
of the country, but it was not until
Wiley turned up in hospital in Sedalia

THE SAPPHIRE MINES.
The Syndiate Will Resume Work Soon
At Yogo.

The new sapphire mines syndicate
will in few days resume operations at
its mines near Yogo. and the managers
anticipate the most successful season
they ever had. although there is some
reason to fear that the season may be
short one. as there is probability of &
scarcity of water. says the Great Falls
Tribune. Last season was the longest
the company ever had. there being a
good supply of water early in the year
and it not freezing until late in the fall
ontrary to the usual custom. the c'm-
pany has had quite a large force of
men employed during the winter pre-
pairing for the seasons work. ard the
most important preparation made is t:'-
building of line of galvanized iron pip
ing. in which will be caught the water
as it pours from the sluice boxes. 1t
may then be carried back and used sew
tral times in washing the gravel ana
clay.
A very large quantity of the clay and
gravel formation in which the sapphires
are found has been exposed all winter.
1t is a peculiar property of this forma-
ton that exposure to the air ca.lse; it

boxes are fitted with rifles which cause
the sapphires and gravel to bee me sep.

easily sort the precious stones from
the worthless ones.
The main shaft on the company's
claims has been sunk to a depth of 40
feet. The surface formation is gravel,
showing the presence of large Quanti-
ties of oxide of iron. This gravel is
lecomposed to depth of As feet. when
there is encountered the hard format ton
of blue and red clay. A tunnel has
been run 600 feet on the main lead.
which has been traced for a distance Of
four miles. and the lead varies in width
from six to twenty fest. The lead is so
persistent that the company has decided
TO tap it in several places and work
it from several shafts at once. A sec
Ond shaft has already been sunk to a
depth of 120 feet. and others will be
sunk this year.
The Burke & Sweeney sapphire mines,
not far from the syndicates's claims will
be extensively worked this season. They
may be sold at any time. A Helena
lapidary has been endeavoring to Sc
cure them. he acting it is believed,
for eastern dealers, and Tiffany has
also made offers for the claims.

ARb0R DAY
IN MONTANA
IT WILL BE APPROPRIATELY OBJ
SERVED BY SCHOOL CHILD
rem HERE.
TEACHERS ARE ASKED
TO STIMULATE INTEREST.
Literary Exercises Will be Conducted
and Trees Planted to Keep
Alive the Interest.

Arbor day will soon be here. The OBJ
eervance of the day is very general
throughout Montana, especially ny the
public school children. 1t Is the schools
more than anything else that Arbor day
is intended to benefit and in no section
Of the state Is the day more enthusiastic
ally observed than in Butte.
State Superintendent of Public In
struction w. w. WEIGH in a circular sent
to the county superintendents and teach
ers Of the state, says:
THE annual observance of Arbor day
in the public schools has become fixed
custom. In many states, including Mon
tana, its Importance has received the at
tention Of the legislatures to the end that
a day has been set apart upon which
all schools shall devote especial atten-
ton to the work of adjoining and beauti-
tying school grounds.
1.-The statute of our state creates or sets
apart the second Tuesday of May to be
thus especially observed. The governor
has already issued his proclamation that
the 18th day Of May be observed as Arbor
day 1t is to be hoped that all will enter
into the spirit of the occasion and thus
assist in the grand work Of rendering
our state still more pleasant place in
which to live.
1t Is recognized by all that the schools
Of the state should be especially interest
ed In the due observance Of this day. 1t
Is, therefore, hoped that each county
superintendent will labor to bring the
matter of Arbor day before the teachers
of her county and that every teacher will
heartily cooperate with the county SUI
perintendents and all school officers to
the end that an enthusiasm common
surate with the Importance of the occa-
sion may be aroused. We trust that all
will strive earnestly to observe this day
in a manner BETTING the objects sought
10 be secured by the Introduction and per-
petuation of Arbor day.
The day should be given to the plant
ing Of trees, shrubs and plants. and to
appropriate literary exercises. The liter
ature employed should be of nature cal
culated to 1nculcate a love for trees,
shrubs and plantsh. 1t is not enough
that a portion of the day should he CIV
en- to planting, but some practical les
son on proper care and culture should
be instilled. An examination Of some
of the school grounds which have re-
ceived attention on this day in past years
shows that the enthusiasm aroused has
been allowed to subside too quickly. I
am pleased, however, to note that this
is not universally true.
These facts suggest that strenuous
efforts should be made to keep alive the
interest aroused on Arbor day. 1t Is also
we'll to bear in mind that unless study
is made of the varieties of trees and
shrubs and plants. 1t is not enough
good work will be lost. Be sure to select
