Some special correspondent sent ou, a
story last night from Spokane alleging that
II. l., Frank OF Butte had sold To a French
syndicate three fourthS OF his coal mine in
British Columbia for s. 100000. and that
$4,000 had been paid to bind the trans
action.
Mr.. i INK is not in the city today bat
when interviewed by The Inter Mountain

Intimate friends Of the gentleman believed
thai he had sold half interest III the
mine for $soo,ooo. that being the figure
named by him to the French capitalists
according to report but he would mol con-
firm that belict.
The Spokane dispatch states that the
Anaconda and Butte smelters will be sup-
piled with coke from the Frank property.
but this story is not credited for the
reason that Mr.. Frank already has a
market for all his product. Besides. there

Mr. Brown was born in Nelson county,

out he erlisted in Confederate Company
ID. under Capt. John +. Potts OF the
Twenty Virginia battery in Richmond,
and surrendered after the destruction OF
the acot and fall Of Richmond, being
paroled oil April 10, 1865. After leaving
the service he went to ST. Louis. where he
stayed only short time and then came to
Montana. Mr. Brown is now at the head
OF the xConfedcratc soldiers in this
state.
Notwithstanding the fact that Mr..
Brown was on the losing side during the
war of the rebellion. he is on the winning
side Of the mining business i'll Montana,
and is first class man in any country.
When he visits Butte which is quite
often, his many friends are always glad to

filming Notes.

Frank Brown, mining man well known
III this district, came ont OF the Butte
Hump, Idaho, mining section few days
ago with bar OF gold bullion worth
$1,000. The bar was from the Jumbo
mill and was the result of the run durln.
May. The ore from which tho metal was
taken came from the aoo-foot level of the
mine, which is below the water line 1t
was supposed the ore below the water
point would be too base for free milling,
but the cleanup OF the Jumbo has shown
differently.
Fred l.. Klein says the vein OF corun-
dun owned by the Montana Corundum
company, OH Elk creek, Gallatin county is
increasing in width, and is now AZ inches
in the clear. The mineral is also first
class. The ground is being worked in such
a way that Stopping can be commenced as
soon as the mill is ready for business,
which will be in short time. Machinery
for treating the product is due at Bel
grade. 1t is understood that manufactur-
ers who use corundum are making inquiry
of the company as to length of time it will
take to get the mill in operation, They
want corundum and want it badly
