DEATH ENDS HIS SUFFERING
John harrington, Mangled by thu
Cars, Passes Away in the
HOSPITAL akas
Especial to Inter Mountain.)

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda. Aug. 10.-John Harrington,
the lower works boss who was run over
by the cars in the b., A. & P freight,
yards yesterday afternoon, was releved'
OF his sufferings 3h hours after the acci-
dent occurred, at st. AIMS hospital.
Death came to him at 4:S0 O'Clock.
harrington had lately removed from
his former residence, 723 West Sixth
street, to 103 Ash street, where he re-
sided with his wife and mother-in-laM
Two weeks ago domestic troubles arose
and his wife left him, going to the home
OF her sister, Mrs. Frank Farchild, 1904
Iowa avenue, Butte. She also left be-
hlnd her infant daughter.
harrington was unable to induce his
wife to return to him and as ruse he
inserted an article in newspaper last
Thursday stating that their little child
had died.
The article had the desired effect, and
the mother rushed home to Anaconda to
see her child for the last time, as she
supposed, reaching there she found the
little one perfectly we'll, whereupon she
returned to Butte.
Although Mrs. Harrington was advised
of the injury and subsequent death of her
husband she failed to put in an appear
ance until this forenoon.
The deceased came to Anaconda about
six years ago and until June Of last year
went under the name of John Brown,
when he married Miss Maroney, at St.
Pauls Catholic church, this city.
An inquest will be held this evening.

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, Aug. 1O.--H. N. Black re-
turned last night from business trip
to Great Falls, where he went in con-
nection with matters relating to the
building of the new court house at that
place, he having designed the structure,
which, when completed, will be one of
the finest buildings of the kind in the
state.
Splendid progress is being made upon
the building" said MIR. Black this morn
ing. THE founda tions are all in and the
Wor1men are about ready to lay the
heavy building stones. l am about three
months ahead of them with my work,
but the greatest possible haste will be
exercised in pushing the structure to
completion.
Great Falls seems to be enjoying
prosperity along with other Montana
towns. A great many dwelling houses
are being put up there and quite num-
ber of substantial business blocks.
i think there is going to be lot Of
building down in Anaconda before long
While / do not anticipate that many
large structures will be put up right
away. such as being constructed in
Butte, yet / do believe Anaconda is
about ready to enjoy unusual activity"
There is great scarcity of dwelling
houses in this city, and it is almost an
mpOssibility to find q desirable house
for residence purposes any where. Mod
ern houses are few in number, and ter
races and flats are almost an unknown
quantity here.
@Real estate men have complained Of
sthis condition for some time past, yet Up
uo the present time property owners have
mot appeared ready to invest their money
to supply the demand. There are Il
anunber of cases where persons have
sought houses to rent, but have given up
in despair and purchased them.
That did not end their troubles in some
instances, where it was found a difficult
matter to obtain possession without
going to extremely annoying delays.
Tenants have refused to vacate until
they found a place to move into.
rss Mr. tBlackAbelieves this long continued
condition has brought men with money
to realize that this town is profita BILE
field for inves tment.

ANACONDA BOARD OF EDUCA-
TON DECIDES UPON
THE DATE.
Second Week in the Month Settled
Upon in Order Not to Conflict With
the Labor Day Celebration, Sep
tember 2-Much Money Com
ing in From Various
Sources.
Especial to Inter Mountain.)


Anaconda. Aug. 10.-The public schools
OF Anaconda will open for the fall term
sept y. The date was fixed last night
at meeting of the school board.
In view of the fact that last year was
short school year there was talk Of
opening the schools the first week Of next
month. The matter was discussed and it
was finally concluded that inasmuch as
Labor day comes in the first week it
would be preferable to have the opening
the following week and then there would
be no holidays to interrupt until Thanks
giving.
County Superintendent of Schools Nc
Laughlin notified the board that the ap-
portionment received from the Daily es-
tate as an inheritance tax would give
$9.S2310 to the public schools of Ana
conda. This was gratifying to the board
and County Assessor George S. Miller in
formed one of the members that the
property valuation in the Aanaconda dis
trict this year would reach $500, 900, a
considerable increase over last year.
This fact insures more money being
paid into the school fund from regular
taxes than ever before.
The matter of refunding the $1,000
bond issue, recently authorized, was dis
cused only informally and was allowed
to pass without action.
The finance committee presented
statement, compiled by Clerk Nell, show
ing that the Anaconda school district is
in debt to the amount of $4,000, outside
of the $4,000 bond issue, that the annual
interest charges amount to $3.50, and
to date s50,2sO has been paid out for inter-
est. r
The statement shows the Indebtedness
in detail as follows:
Issue of June 21, 1890, sold to Blair &
Co. New York, redeemable in 10 years
ana payable in 20, $4,000 at per cent,
on which interest has been paid to June
q, 1901, to the amount of $4,000. This is
the issue to be refunded.
Issue of May Is, 1892, sold to E. H. Rol
Inns & Son, Boston; redeemable in 10
years and payable in 20, $4,000 at 6 per
