A deal vas closed up in Helena
yesterday afternoon by E. w. King,
of Bozeman, and George Putnam, of
Chinook, representing the Alder
Gulch company, of Zortman, and W..
A.. Black, Of Zortman, and Samuel
Rurvitcb, of Gilt Edge, representing
the Little Rockies Exploration com.
pany, whereby the latter company

district. A $50, 900 cyanide mill and
p claims, upon which considerable
work has been done, we're transferred.
While the consideration was not given
out. it is said to be in the neighbour
hood of $500. 900.

pacity of 800 ions a day which can be
increased 70 500 tons. Their claims
adjoin the Ruby Gulch property Of
Whitcomb and Phillips and this past
winter a lO0.toot tunnel was driven
and a cross cut 20 feet run and an ore

The company expects to have the
mill in operation within the next 30
days and will add to its crew as rap
idly as development work will permit.
The past week the Little Rockies
company secured a group Of eigh,
promising looking copper claims on
Little creek, three miles from Wolf
Creek station. Over 500 feet of tunnel

body Of ore uncovered. The values
range from q TO 80 per cent. copper

Idle Jurors Want Paw.

BUTTE, May Fifty jurors, who
are doing no work at present, will
probably be paid s.. 100 by the county
during the next two weeks, on a nice
technical point in law. A few days
ago Judge Doulan excused his jury
for two weeks. Today Joe Galloway,
acting for the 80 men on the panel,
put in a demand for pay at the ate OF
So a day for each during the two
weeks.
The county attorney held that, while
a panel which was excused during
other work of the court, 10 which pan.
ell was not serving, was not entitled to
pay, this jury might be entitled TO pay
because it was excused during two
weeks while court vas in session, and
no other matters were being consid.
cred. The case is without preceden,
in the state.

Twelve deputies a short time ago put
In 9 claim against the county for
overtime a~ggregating nearly $500.
County Attorney Murray was asked if
the claims were legal, and he gave the
commissioners an opinion to the con-
trary. So the commissioners did not
allow the claims. Today MIR. Boland
sent the communication described to
the board, and those gentlemen we're
personally asked by him to take some
action.
1t was decided that MIR. Boland and
q member of the board Of county com.
missioners will interview Attorney
General Galen, and ask him to pro.
vide a way out Of the dilemma. Mr..
Boland may be able to persuade his
deputies to delay returning to the
mines for a few days till this attempt
to solve the difficulty is made. The
Inference is that the taxes will not be
collected unless the deputies get more
pay, IN which case there will be less
revenue 10 the county treasury for
deputies next year.

MONTANA NEWS BRIEFLETS.
A Budget Of Readable Short Items
From Various Parts Of the State.

HELENA, April 3O.-When two Hell
ena dentists opened their Offices this
morning and pulled out their instru.
ments to go to work they discovered
sneak thieves had made off with the
gold used for crown and bridgework.
From DR.. George A. Willett, who has
his Office in the Thompson block,
thieves secured s25 worth of gold, and
from DR.. Walter f Trerise, whose of.
flee is ia the Hotter block, between $50
and S75 worth of gold was taken.
LEwIsTOwN, April 3O.-Davy Rich
ards, an oldtime prospector and
miner, was placed in the county Jail
today, under sentence Of 80 days i'm.
prisonment aud a fine Of 5000, for an
assault on his son at kenda all with an
AK. The attack was unprovoked and
young Richards is said to have had q
close call. The prisoner is probably
more suited to the insane asylum than
a Jail. He was committed here for
insanity over a year ago and Sheriff
Martin did not know the man had been
released from Warm Springs until he
was brought in from Kendall.
GREAT FALLS, April 30.-The mys.
terry attending the disappearance of Ira
Littlefeld, a young ranchman, July
30, 1901, has been solved. Littlefeld's
skeleton was found among the hills
about six miles from his home near
Belt. 1t was Unidentified through the
presence of a razor t the place where
it lay, the man having taken the i'm.
plement with him when he left home.
1t is believed Littlefeld committed sui.
eide. He and an elder brother loved
and wooed the same girl, a resident of
their neighborhood. The brother won
the girl, and Ira became detected and
threatened self.murder, finally disap.
pearing from his home. 1t is believed
that he kept his promise and cut his
throat.

Assessors Deputies Strike.

BUTTE, May There was a strike
in the county assessors Office this
morning. Pat Bolano's Office deputies
went back to the mines. At least they
said they would, or Mr.. Roland said
they would in a communication which
he addressed t the board of county
commissioners. The communication
said that the deputies had waited two
months for the commissioners to allow
them about $500 for overtime, and
had not got it. Hence, they were dis.
couraged. and had decided to quit and
take up work On the chill"
The deputies draw 800 a month.
