Jacksonville, Fla., May 7.—The bodies
of two more victims of Friday's great
fire were found today. The work of
cleaning up the city and caring for the
homeless .is going on steadily.
An order was formally promulgated
today ordering the negroes to work or
leave the city. This had the effect of
increasing the gangs at work in vari
ous parts of the city, but some of the
negroes are grumbling, saying that they
belong here and cannot be made to
leave.
The Relief association fed 6000 people
today.
Mayor Bowden today received the fol
lowing telegram:
"Atlanta, Ga., May 7.—The Baltimore
& Ohio railroad will be glad to transport
free over its own rails shipments of
clothing or food supplies for the relief
of your sufferers.
(Signed) "WM. N. MITCHELL,
"Commercial Freight Agent."
The following appeal has been Issued
by Jacksonville transportation men:
"Jacksonville, Fla., May 7.—To the
railway and steamship fraternities:
Over one thousand acres in the heart
of the residence, business and most popu
lous portion of Jacksonville was com
pletely destroyed by fire on May 3. About
ten thousand of our people are homeless,
among whom are many railway and
steamship employes and their families.
We therefore isr.ue this appeal for the
help and relief of such unfortunate breth

embarrassment to themselves or fam

Joseph Creech, who conducts a saloon
in South Main street, was tried before
a jury in Justice Shepherd's court at
Meaderville today on a charge of em

and the jury acquitted him. When
Creech was arrested several women

CONSTABLE S HA VE A KICK
Private Citizens Have Been Serving
Writs to Which the Elected
Officers Are Entitled.
When the regularly elected constables
of Silver Bow county learn that private
citizens have been serving legal pro
cesses from justices courts that right
fully belonged to them, there will prob
ably be a square-man session with a
view to the taking of steps to stop the
deal.
In Justice Arnold's court tomorrow a
suit will be tried, in which this issue is
partly involved, and it will doubtless
be what some persons would denominate
as a hot number. The paintiff in the
action is Maurice F. O'Brien, and the
defendant, A C Broderson, an attorney,
doing business as the International Mer
cantile company. O'Brien, it is alleged,
formerly worked for the company as a
solicitor for new business and a server
of legal processes. For the former work
he was to receive a commission of 2 per
cent on all money collected by him, and
for the serving of legal processes the
defendant, he alleges, agreed to pay
him the reguar fee.
To this allegation he adds that be
tween March 18 and April 27 of this
year he dug up for the company new
business on which his percentage
amounted to $153, and served twenty
two legal documents, entitling him to
$23.33, but none of the sum has been
paid, and he asks the court to award
him judgment against the defendant for
the full amount.
O'Brien also performed detective work
for the company, as is shown by the
complaint. This part of the document
reads as follows:
"Night work (extra) detective work,
watching a man from 5:30 p. m. tu
after midnight on April 5, 1901, $3."
The name of the man on whom O'Brien
says he kept his weather eye Is not
mentioned in tihe complaint.

WILD FLIGHT OF ORE GARS
Two Miners Have an Almost Miracu
lous Escape From Death at the
Mountain View Mine.
Two miners had a harrowing experi
ence at the Mountain View this morn
ing, as the result of which one now
lies on a bed of pain at the Boston &
Montana hospital, while the other was
obliged to cease work and go home to
recover from the shock he received^The
accident was of a novel nature and Tooth
men deem themselves lucky that the pqn
clusion of the tale was not witnessed
at the morgue.
Frank V. Shanley, the assistant black
smith at the mine, and another employe
named William Crowhurst. toad been en
gaged on a piece of work on one of the
lower levels and were on their waÿ to
the surface in the "cage." Owing td
some unexplainable defect in the work
ing of the machinery the "cage" d'd not
stop when it reached the surface, hut
was jerked upward into the sheaves with
terrific force. Neither man was thrown
out of the cage by the force of the im
pact, though both received a jolt which
they will not soon forget.
An ore car, running above the level,
was unloading at the time of the ac
cident and both men were struck by
the flying rock. As soon as possible the
car was lowered and the two almost un
conscious men rescued from their peril
ous position.
Shanley, who seemed the most severe
ly injured, was sent in an ambulance to
the Boston & Montana hospital. An ex
amination by Drs. Cowan and MacDoà
old showed that his left side had been
badly cut and bruised. The swelling was
so bad that it war, impossible to deter
mine whether any ribs are broken,
though the attending physicians are con
fident that the man has received no In
ternal injuries. As soon as the swelling
is sufficiently reduced to make a more
thorough examination they can deter
mine the extent of the injuries received.
Crowhurst was struck In the right eye
by a stone and his cheek badly cut. The
principal Injury he received was tÿe
shock to his nervous system. He nit*
sent home and will be able to resume
work within a few days.

TRORNTON JOTEL OPENED
The Magnificent European Flan Hos

and First-class Affair.
What the Waldorf-Astoria is to New
York city, the Thornton hotel is to
Butte. The new hostlery, that residents,

fact. It was formally thrown open last
night with all the attendant ceremony

Hundreds of persons took advantage of
the opportunity to Inspect throughout the
magnificent building and its many excep

flowers and potted plants. Every room
was a center or attraction. All who
made the tour of the house were enrap

exceeded their highest ideals of what a
first class hotel should be like. In the
cafe particularly were the guests of the
evening interested. There they found a
magnificently decorated and finished room
In it were the finest of furniture, general
fittings, table linen, cut glass ware and
silver ware. Money could not have pro
vided a better quality.
Particularly was that so of the silver
ware. It is all of the famous Reed and
Barton manufacture. The service Includ

champagne coolers. The service is said
to be even liner than that in the Wald
