walking toward the city from his abode
in the valley.
Few5Eaen have ever come to Montana
who had better opportunities and who

Schuch made one of the most remark
able trips in coming to the northwest
country which has ever been written of
any earlyday pioneer. In 1854 he came
up the Missouri river as far as Fort
Benton, and from thence proceeded to
take what undoubtedly was the most
hazardous journey overland recorded. to
a single man, by making his way across
the Rocky mountains to Portland. Ore,
by means Of saddle horse. At that
time he was an agent for st. Louis
fur company and it was this early train

tablishing a fur business in Montana.
Later he, went to Alaska and served
as a government scout ano courier, CON

Just as we were about to dine, another
severe shock was felt, driving us out
of the house to seek shelter in Alma
park, three blocks away. Here we spent
the night with thousands Of other refu

FThe scene there can never be ade-
quately described. Despair had settled
down upon all.
"Alma park is. upon a high hill and
an unobstructed view of the burning

seemed of endless duration, was spent
in watching the different buildings GO
down before the flames. Soon the St.

Experts Say It's Copper Mines Are

Specia! to Tie Journal,

specia! to Tie Journal
Butte, Mont, May 19.-Eastern min
ing experts familiar with the conditions
in Butte declare that the mines Of this
city are only in *heir primcval stages
of development, that the most valuable
ore bodies are yet to be encountered,
and all unite in calling Butte i" the
greatest copper camp in the world.'
The great Anaconda mine is pointed
out as conclusive proof Of their asser-
tions. The arguments. Of Heinze and
his engineers have proven correct and
the lower levels have been found rich
in copper ore, altho the owners them
selves formerly had grave doubts cor
corning the value below the 1,60O-foot
level. It was only necessary to sink
thru zone. of white iron pvrites. Rich
ore was struck on tho 2,2OO.foot level
and the 2,400-foot level is just as good.
The return of Joseph A. Coram to
Butte is creating much speculation in
mining circles. It is almost generally
conceded that F. Augustus Heinze is
associated with the Boston man. Some
interesting announcements are confiden-
TALLY expected, as it is known that
Mr.. Coram and his associates have Sc
cured control Of large acreage of val
liable ground in this city. 49,.
