a labor temple is to be bbuit in Chicago
by B. unions whose members are employed
in the stockyards.
The union metalworkers of Los An

cipal shops OF the city because the men
have asked for raise TO $3.50 per day
Tor certain iourneymen and the raise has
been refused by the employers. The en-
ployers have offered to make the raise on
condition that they are allowed to intro

SMITH WALKS AGAIN
Man Edward Carney Shot
Able to Leave the
Hospital.

William Smith who was shot by Ed
ward Carney and seriously wounded, has
recovered sufficiently to walk about with
out assistance, and on Saturday was al
lowed to return to his own apartments.
The shooting took place in Harmon's sa-
loon on upper Main street two weeks ago
Saturday and it was at first feared that
the wounds would result fatally.
Smith was in the hospital exactly two
weeks, remarkably short time consider
ing the serious nature of his wounds. His
escape from instant death was little short
of miraculous, one shot striking him in
the back of the head and one passing
through his lung. His strong constitution
and careful attention have brought about
such a rapid recovery that Smith is now
pronounced out of all danger, if not entire
ly well.

such an opening as Hennessys millinery
this year. The only safe way is to visit
the store for oneself and then dream of
what one could do with one days receipts
at Hennessys.
There are more than the usual designs
for leaders this year. Green appears TO
be the prevailing color and this shade
this year will prevail more than any other
color excepting possibly violet for early
spring wear.
flower hat, while others are sought for
trimmed with fruit. grapes, berries, etc.
There are more lace designs shown this
season also.
One of the rather unusual features of
the opening this time is private apart
ment for the display devoted exclusively
TO mourning goods. The largest line of
mourning trimmings and goods in the city
is shown here and the privacy afforded
makes it feature to those called upon to
| don the darker coors.
In conjunction with the millinery OPEN
| ing there are afforded some OF the newest
| things in ladies' fancy ready-to-wear
dresses and tailor-made gowns There are
| some of the very newest and latest crea-
| tions of the tailor's art in the department
| just adjoining the millinery space and here
! will be shown some of the handsomest de-
| signs, all offered in ready-to-wear styles
! and from some OF the most famous houses
| in the world.
| All of these goods are set out more fully
| in the attractive descriptions of the adver-
tising department in the display adver-
tisements which are published daily. A
| perusal of these advertisements will as
suredly prove profitable to the hundreds
of Inter Mountain readers who are get
} ting ready for new spring gowns and hats.

it was here that all OF the enterprise, all
OF the artistic work and their accompany
ing effects were placed by Hennessy's, to
commemorate what is pronounced to be the
most delightful and attractive millinery
opening il has been the good fortune of
Hennessy's managers to secure through the
big importers.
For today and tomorrow-possiby
longer-is the seasonable periods of the
milliners department at Hennessys, dur
ing which they have the long prepared for
opportunity to demonstrate their taste and
art in the difficult task Of pleasing half of
the women of Butte in spring hats.
The opening began this morning under
the immediate superintendent of Mrs. s.
Raleigh, one of the best known and most
Capable milliners in the Western country.
1t is through her more than any other
that Hennessy's is enabled this spring to

The plans for the new S. A. A. c.

night and but few changes from the
original specifications were made.
These changes consist of putting in
an arch between the music room

held; the floor space in the basement
will be increased so the runway of
the bowling alleys can be enlarged
to 20 feet and seats arranged for

will also be changed SO as to allow
more room for handball. The original
plan provided only for windows in

windows on three sides.

Dependency CAUSES
DEATH BY POISON

Johnson rented the room, a small
inside one, about a month ago. At
the same time he cashed a check
for 800 with Swanson Bros, pro-
prietors of the Free Silver saloon,
which occupied the ground floor of
the block. Taking part of the money
he left the balance, his pocketbook
and papers in the proprietors' safe.
He continued to draw on this
money, little at a time, ever since.
Last night he called for his pocket
book and said he was going out to a
logging camp to collect notes amount
ing to 5000.
This was the last seen of him until
found. Johnson is said to own a $500
team. which he has kept all winter at
the Red Cross stables. He is of
middle age and appeared to be steady
and of good habits.

Leaving Home Has
Unbalanced His Mind

The county Jail has another insane
patient today. A. B. Moser, one of
a party of homeseekers, who arrived
on the westbound Great Northern
train last night, has been manifest
ing decided symptoms of insanity
since the party left North Carolina
several days ago.
Yesterday he became unmanageable
and the authorities We're called to
take charge of him. He will be re-
turned to his native state.
1t is said the painfulness of a
separation from his family has un-
balanced his mind.
