THE MERCURY WILL RISE.
Warn Baseball Game Scheduled fol
Next Saturday.
from Wednesdays ual1y Gazette.

From Wednesdays Ially Gazette.
If the heat radiateu in the valley
next SATURDAY afternoon should prove
exceptionally oppressive and
prostrations are reported the cause
will be easily ascertainable, and it
will not be a case of the sun working
over time or making any unusual eff
forts, either. A baseball game that
is scheduled for that time mustbe held
responsible for whatever calamities in
that direction may occur.
For some reason some Of the law
yers and newspaper men OF the city
have become impressed with the idea
that they can play ball and that GER
tain gentlemen connected with the
banking institutions of the town don't
know even a little bit concerning the
national game. Acting On this belief
they have issued a challenge to the
money changers and a contest is now
on the books for $3.50 Saturday after
noon. Ladies and children will be adj
mitted free, but men must pay a two
bit piece to get through the gate to
see the exhibition. The money deriy-
ed will be used in the purchase of a
book to be donated to the Parmly
Billings Memorial library.
AS yet the law and intelligence have
not concluded what their lineup will
be, but the following names have been
UNDERSIGNED as players and substi-
tutes: Loud, Kreidler, Wilson, Nat
Carwile, Jim Carwile, Harris, Grip
pen, Hathhorn, Stout, Hassler and
Goddard.
The interest grabbers give the fol
lowing as their players and the posi-
tions they will attempt to fill. Holmes,
catcher; Deckert, pitcher; Reynolds,
first base; Mains, second base; Pur.
Wis, third base: Clark, shortstop;
Read, right field; Elmore, centerfield;
McElroy, left field. In addition to
these they will have the following on
the bench: Babcock, Moss, G. Yegen
P. Yegep, Paul Mccormick, Griggs
Spear, Burla, Arnold, Hollister

He estimates that no fewer than
10000 visitors can be comfortably

"The citizens of Butte and state

in making this coming session of the
congress a great success, and believe
that the natural attractions with
which they are endowed and the mag
nificent opportunities they have for
satisfying to an unlimited extent the
desire of scientific men, investors ond
others to investigate for themselves
some OF the greatest copper, gold and
silver mines of this country, and
great mills ard smelters in active

ficient material to aid them in &C

ROBBED N BEATEN.
"kid" Renow Victim Of a Brutal
Hoidup.

Ho!dup.
From Tuesdays Daily Gazette.
"Jim" Perkins and a man named
Smedley are detained in the county
Jail on the charge of robbery, al
though it is believed that Smedley
was not an actual participant in the
crime, and his arrest is merely a maj
ter of precaution, having been found
in the company of Perkins, Of whose
guilt the officers feel there Is no
doubt. The man who was robbed is
known as "Kld" Renow.
Renow has been employed by Goth
ron & Todd, and Smedley worked for
the same firm one day, last Sunday,
having been engaged to help out dur
ing a rush. Perkins apparently is a
stranger and as near as can be learn
ed came to town last Saturday, when
he STRUCK" Renow for money and
was given a small sum to enable him
to get something to eat. Renow quit
yesterday and was paid off, receiving
something like $35. Last night he
and Smed1ey were about town and
met Perkins and the three proceeded
"down the line" On the pretext of
taking him to another part of town
where he said he knew some people,
Perkins is alleged to have coaxed
Renow onto the railroad tracks be-
low the Northern Pacific wool ware
house. When he considered himself
safe from interference Perkins
knocked Renow down, so the latter
says, and proceeded to rob him. AL
though felled, Renow says he was not
rendered unconscious by the first
blow and is emphatic in his asser
lions that he saw Perkins bend ovel
him and search his pockets, after
which he struck him again and con
tinued to beat him until he was in
sensible, in which condition he re
NAMED several hours. When he re
gained consciousness he made hi:
way up town and this morning report
ed what had occurred to his late EN-
ployers. They notified the sheriff
office and Under Sheriff Sayles ant
Deputy Robbins went in quest OF tn
two men, Perkins and Smedley. The.
found them a short distance below tn
brewery and placed them under a
rest
When confronted by the two Reno
at once said Smedley had nothing t
do with the robbery, but was positlv
in his identification of Perkins.
This being a legal holiday, the pris
oners will be held until tomorrow
when they will be arraigned. Whe
arrested Perkins had SIS on his pc
son, which is believed to be a part {
the money he secured from Renov
who lost between $34 and 35.

II MINING
official Call for Its A%ssembIage at

The Gazette has been favored by
Irwin Mahon, secretary of the Inter
national Mining congress, with a copy
of the otticial call for that body to as
semble at Butte September l, 1902,
with the request to publish the same.
Owing to limited space the request
cannot be complied with, as the call
is too long and would crowd out al
most everything else in the issue in
which it appeared.
The ca. is addressed to the govern
ors of states and territories, mayors
of cities and towns, county commits
sioners, chambers of commerce,
boards of trades and all commercial
and mining organizations throughout
the country. 1t sets forth the objects
of the congress, which are said to be
to encourage the growth and develop
ment of each and every state and ter
ritory represented; to work in har-
mony for such national legislation as
is calculated to promote the interests
| of the people Of the nation; increase
reciprocal trade between the states
and territories; to discuss matters of
special interest and to formulate and
decide upon plans which will bring
about the desired results in the ad-
vancement of the mining industry and
kindred interests.
Mr.. Mahon writes that the congress
will remain in session until September
5, inclusive, and says that the people
of Butte have made ample arrange.

origin of Leap Year proposn1s.

Some one asked me the other day
what was the origin of women propos-
ing marriage during q leap year. l
looked it up, and while it may not be
new to all dare say it will interest
many. In the year 1888 statute was
published by the Scotch parliament, Of
which the. following is copy, and is
to my mind, the origin of the custom
or idea. do not know that it is a
custom or ever was:
1T is 'ordaint that during the reign
Of her mnist blesslt majestic, Margaret,
like maiden, ladee of bath high and
low estate, shall hae liberty to speak
to the man she likes. Gif he refuses
to take her to be his wyf, he shale be
mulct In the sum of ane hundredity
pounds or less, as his cstait may bee,
except and always Elf he can make it
appear that he is hctrothit to another
woman; then he shall be free"
After the dear old Margaret had
passed away the women became clam
orous for their privileges, and to ap-
pease them another act Of parliament
allowed them the privilege every fourth

When Secretary Rood, at the in
stance of President Roosevelt, scolded
Gen. Miles in true fshwife fashion for
violating the military regulations in
commencing the position of Admiral
Dewey, most persons somewhat hastily
assumed that there had been an actual
violation Of the rules. Even those who
apnrqyed Of what Gen. Miles said,
thought that be had been guilty of o
technical offense. We assumed that
such was the case;, but we could moi
make it out to. be anything but yenial
offense; for it is not in Mr.. Roots pow
or to imprint q, stigma en- anybody, I'M
less the. conduct of the person affected
has been such as to "take" the stigma
which may be officially applied. But q
careful reading of the regulation which
Gen. Miles is said to have violated
shows very conclusively that he did
not violate it at all. Mr.. Root in his
letter to Gen. Miles, in which by the
way he virtually accuses that officer Of
Justification, states that the following
