OUR TROY WRITEUP.

In our writeup of the Troy and Manhattan mines published in this is,ue of the SILVER BELr, we have en. deavored to give as much information as possible, and at the same time ad- here strictly to the facts, especially in every statement relating to the deyel- opment work, the measurements of lodes and the grade of ore.
 Much of the information here pub hshed was gained from personal in spection of the mines, and the more important data from Manager Cutting and Mine Foreman Kavanaugh, who are very conservative and careful in making statements for publication,
 Exaggeration of the merits of min ing properties is an evil which we try to avoid, and in this instance would be very distasteful to the companies.

4 System of Fine Reads.

An important feature of the work accomplished at Troy is the system Of fine wagon roads, extending from the Alice shaft, near the west end of the Troy group, to the Sisson shaft, near the eastern limit of the Manhattan, and including cross roads to other pro ducing mines. The total length of these roads is about five miles, and they are all constructed on a favora ble grade in relation to the shelter site, to facilitate the hauling of ores to the smelter, and later to serve as bed for a track should the companies decide to construct tramways between the various mines and the smelter.

the companies. The books and school furniture were provided by Mir. H. II. Reed, of the Manhattan company, and Mir. Vincent P. Tommins, of the same company, will build modern school house. The plans may be changed, however, as the erection of a public building is being considered, to con tain school room on the ground floor and a public hall above. The school trustees are John kayanaugb, C. w. Lemon and ]. |. Coleman, who have shown great interest in the school.
 Troy has d justice of the peace in the person of Isaac N. DeGroot, and John C. Devine is constable. Their official duties are not arduous, as Troy is an orderly and law-abiding com munity.
 One of the needs of Troy is church, or at least the stated preaching of the gospel, and the recent visit of Rev. rhos. Mofiitt, general missionary of the Presbyterian denomination, iS la. ken as an indication that this require ment may be supplied.
 The domestic water supply for Troy is pumped from spring furnishing 1000 gallons per day, and the water is distributed by gravity to every part of the camp.
 The people of the camp are housed mostly in tents, of which there are los, many of them having board walls and floors.
 The population Of Troy is about 25O.
 The altitude of the camp is 3,644 feet.
 The health of the community is good

Proposed Phoenix and Eastern RsiIrosd.

The project for the building of rail. road to connect Phoenix and Benson Is viewed with very great interest by the management of the Troy and Manhat- tan companies. The line of the pro- posed Phoenix and Eastern, as sur veyed, runs along the Gila river not farther than six miles from the town of Troy and five miles from the smelt er site. Preliminary work on this line was started near Phoenix more than a week ago and actual construction is promised to begin at an early date. But if this project should for any req son fail, the Troy and Manhattan cop- per companies are abundantly able to build d railroad themselves, from Casa Grande to the nearest point to Troy on the Gila river.

At the close of the concert, Colonel Sisson expressed his appreciation by requesting Profes- sor Emmett to prepare list of finstru. ments for aband and orchestra, and at the same time stating that he would donate them upon the condition that the professor would organize band and orchestra and call the organiza-

PinaI ParsHins Oil Field.

The oil field located by the pinal Paraifine oil company lies on the south side of the Gila river, only nine or ten mile in a direct line from the Troy camp.
 The same conditions obtain in the Pinal field which are found in many developed oil fields elsewhere. The formations are favorable to the occur renee of oil, and tests of the rock made for oil in Los Angeles and elsy where gave good results.
 The Pinal Paraf'ine Oil company has purchased new and complete standard oil.boring rig, capable of go. ing down 2,j00 feet, and it has reached Casa Grande, for which point MT L. W. Leighton started last Sunday, to have the machinery, and lumber for the tower hauled to the oil field. The company has secured the services of one of the most expert drillers in the Los Angeles field, and by the first of April expect to be ready to begin drilling.

Public Schools to Open March Sd.
some praise

The reopening of the public schools has been set by the board of trustees for Monday, March 3d, 1902, and it is hoped that all pupils will hold them selves in readiness to begin their work anew on that date.
 The school buildings and premises have been fumigated and thoroughly disinfected so that there will be ab- sOlntely no danger of infection from that source.
 Children in families where cpnta- giOuS or infectious diseases have eX- iSted will not be allowed tO attend school until all members of the same have been clear Of such diseases for a period of six weeks or more Such pupils upon presenting themselves for readmittance, will be required to file certificate from their attending physician, stating that their homes, wearing apparel books. papers, etc. have been thoroughly fumigated and disinfected, as required by law, and that no eases of contagious diseases have existed in said families for a period of six weeks or more Under no consideration will there be d devl- ation from this rule.
 The physicians of the town have kindly offered to report all new cases of contagious diseases to the school authorities wherever found without moment $ delay, and to do everything in their power to protect the school and it's best interests.
 The situation is improving all the time and as during the last ter days no new cases have developed. We con 6dently expect to reopen all of the 1 schools on Monday, March 3d.. 1902, | unless further notice to the contrary | IS given later on. Itis important that we keep up good attendance the re- mainder of this term ss the apportion- ment of school funds for us next year will be based upon this attendance.

ARE IN SORRY PLIGHT.
Mother and Child Find Themselves
FriendIess and Stranded.

A case Of genuine distress AMI mer
iting the succor afforded was called TO
the attention Of County Clerk Car
vile yesterday by Sergeant Taylor Of
the police force.
Last Sunday afternoon Mr.. Taylor
was at the Northern Pacific station
and found a uni and little girl Of
about 6 years in the ladies' waiting
room. He engaged the woman in
conversation and learned that she
and her child had been there since
Friday night, when they arrived from
the west. The lady, who gave her
name as Mrs. Essie Zwiefel, said that
she and her daughter were en- route to
st. Louis, where her husband is and
had come from some point near Great
Falls. She had had money enough to
come thus far, expecting to find a
ticket here to enable her to continue
the rest Of her journey, as she had
been notified that it had been sent to
her in care of the Burlington agent.
For some reason the ticket had failed
to be here and not having any money,
she and her child had remained in
the depot.
The officer took the two to a res
taurant and provided them with food.
also leaving orders to feed them rs
long as they remained in the city.
They were thus assured of food, but
had no lodging place. This, however,
did not seem to worry them mucn, as
they still expected to get the neces.
sary transportation to enable them 10
leave the city that night. Yester-
day they were still at the depot and
Mr.. Taylor called on Mr.. Carwile,
who at once gave instructions that
they be housed and fed at the county's
expense pending arrangements for
their departure.
Mr.. Harrington, local agent of the
Burlington company, also interested
himself in the unfortunate couple and
sent a number of kilograms of inquiry
concerning the missing ticket, but be-
yond a dispatch from the employers
of the husband stating that it had
been forwarded, he had learned moth
ing up to last evening. The husband,
it seems, is employed by a bill post
ing company of st. Louis and made
arrangements with the company to
advance the ticket to his wife, who
with her child has been visiting her
parents in the northern part of the
state for a number of months.

WILL APPEAR FOR HEARING.
Mrs. Circuit Will Be Arraigned In jus.
tice Court for Examination.

MS. Circuit. who shot her husband
last Wednesday night, will appear for
| preliminary examination before one
Of the justices. County Attorney Hath
horn las decided that in order to full
ly clear up the shooting she shall ap-
pear for examination.
While the coroner's jury, which in
Guired into the facts and decided that
c. Fl. Circuit came to his death at the
hands of pistol shots fired by. Mrs.
Orcut under great provocation." the
attorney for the state does not think
that further investigation should be
dropped. He is of the opinion that it
is due the woman that she should have
an examination SO that if she acted en-
tirelv in ~self-defense that fact can be
established in a court of record. The
preliminary hearing will be held in a
few days. In the meantime Mrs Or
cut will remain in the custody of the
sheriff.
Since the tragedy Mrs. Circuit gave
an order to the Page woman, who
figured as a witness before the cor
oner's jury, to dispose of the house
hold furniture contained in the Or
cut home at the time of the killing.
These goods have been bought by a
local secondhand furniture dealer.
who found among the effects a part of
q bottle of whisky which Circuit is pre-
sumed to have had in his possession
on the night of the tragedy.
A telegram was received by The
Gazette from a Great Falls newspa-
per yesterday making inquiry as to
Billings. The telegram stated that
it was claimed at Great Falls that the
woman who did such a perfect job in
putting her husbands light out, was
the wife of one Jean Genderau of that
city and that she left him during the
month of November last. Mrs. Or
cut has been known in this city since
early last July when she was em-
ployed as a domestic at the Hotel
Driscoll. Prior to that time it is said
that she resided for a time with Mrs.
Page on a ranch in Carbon county.
1t is not the purpose of County At
torney Hathhorn to %persecute Mrs.
Circuit or cause her and her friends
any unnecessary embarrassment. If

. WORSE THAN SOLDERING,
Philippine Veteran Runs AfouI of
BILLINGS "Grafters."

Peter Mccain was one of the regu-
lars VINO fought in the Philippines at
the same time the Montana volun-
teers were there. He formed the &C
quaintance of a number of the mem
bers of the latter regiment and they
held cut such glowing inducements
concerning the possibilities to be
achieved here by a man OF his capac-
ity and habits that he concluded to
become a citizen of the state as soon
as he received his discharge from the
army. This, it seems, "a given him
not long ago and after spending some
time with his parents back in New
York state, he started west, arriving
here last Friday. Immediately upon
his arrival he was unfortunate enough
to fall into bad company and the re-
suit was that the next day he found
himself minus all his cash, something
owe $50, his overcoat and various
other articles of personal property.
In addition he was also drunk, and
while in that condition was taken in
charge by a policeman, who locked
him up.
Yesterday Mccain faced Judge
Mann and to him he related his ex-
%perience. His honor took compass
sion on him and dismissed the COM
plaint. Mccain was profuse in ex-
pressing his gratitude and said he
would remain a few days longer and
if he found no employment in the
meantime would leave for Sheridan
and enlist once more. He thought
Montana might be all right for those
accustomed to it's ways and people,
but his experience had not been of
the kind to make him long for more
of It.
