PETER DEMPSEY IS NOW Interesting the officers Again and is SAID TO BE IN WYOMING Report of His Arrest Beached Butte Today and the Description Tallies to a Dot—Sheriff Futey May Make a Trip to Evanston to Identify the Suspect. A man supposed to be Peter Dempsev, the escaped Silver Bow county wife mur derer, is under arrest at Evanston. Wju, ■which is about SO miles east of Ogden. The arrest was made by Sheriff F. H. James of Evanston three days ago. ml since then Sheriff Furey has received several telegrams in connection with i:. If the identity of the suspect cannot '>_• established by the use of the wire, WHV JONES LEFT THE Said He Was a Colored Man of Re nown and the Judge Be lieved Him. Zealousness of one of Butte's police man almost caus.d the condemnation to a term of imprisonment in the county jail of a noted character from the Sunny south yesterday afternoon. Judge Boyle feels elated over the fact that the case was carefully looked into and Abra ham Lincoln Junes, a colored, but dis tinguished citizen' of the United States permitted to depart on his way rejoicing. The southern darky was taken in while Wandering about the streets in the east ern part of the city and a charge of va grancy placed against him. .The man gave his name as Jones and Stated that he did not care to talk with anyone save the chief of police or the judge. The darky stated in police court this morning that he always worked when necessity demanded it and hoped that he always would on such an occasion, but while he had considerable money and other valuables about him. namely, $12.75 and a stick pin. presumably for a tie, but more appropriate for use on a horse blanket, he is a genleman and does not care' 1 to waste his time in labor while it tan be more advantageously occupied in traveling. The dusky visitor to Butte in sisted that he is making a tour of the world and that he never lowered his dig nity so far as to ask for alms or money upon the streets. "Why, sail," said Jones, "my father was a most respect able southern gentleman. He was a per sonal Mend of Abraham Lincoln, and fah, he frequently dined with the presi dent and talked over matters." The ebony-hued citizen of the south Said that any policeman who would so far forget himself as to arrest a respect able citizen of this land, such as him self, on a vag charge would never make a soldier. "Indeed, your honor," con tinued the darky, "that fellow would cer tainly shoot his own general if his shoes happened to be a little dusty or his pants JAIL 1 Pot V0\S tOJs Mercury æ sä « Pniasth cury is a danger- m m ous medicine even when administered in very small doses, ana few constitutions can stand it for any length of time.

Mercury and Potash drive the eruptions and blotches from tue 6 kin, but the virus remains in the blood and the reappearance of the old symptoms and the occasional sore mouth show that the poison is still active, and you can never hope to completely eradicate it by this method of treatment. x S.

The description of the man In custody fits Dempsey to a nicety. If it is Dempsey, the suspicions of the officers of this county in regard to the route taken by him will be verified. If has al ways been thought that Dempsey and Schrickengost left Butte together, and that when the latter was arrested at D'l lon his partner was not far away. If the Evanston man is Dempsey, he evi dently went south as far as Ogden and then started east. Evanston is a coal mining and railroad town on the Union Pacific railroad and is just the class of place in which a fugitive accustomed to hard work would be likely to stop and look for something to do. 1 bad a the heels. Tain't no use talkin', judge, you eer.ainly ought to di niiss that blue coat or he will sure get this city into serious trouble, mind me, judge." Judge Boyle liked the appearance of Jones and as his story, although rather extravagant in details, sounded slightly truthful he was given his liberty, pro vided he would rush his tour of the world, particularly this end of it. Abraham thanked the court and stated that he would send the judge a small token of his esteem when he arrived in the old world. CLARK'S UNITED VERDE MINE The Butte Man's Greatest Copper Producer in the World, A Boston mining engineer, who re cently Inspected Senator Clark's United Verde mine in Arizona, says: The United Verde has discounted all my previous ideas of a mine, and when I went through that property and heard Mr. Giroux explain Its conditions I felt that the best mining men in the world could learn something from the United Verde. I was told that fifteen years ago the mine went begging for $30,000, and that Senator Clark bought it because he thought he could make a mine of it. To day it is the estimate of the T>est en gineers in the country that it is not only the greatest mine in the United Sttates, but that the next ten greatest mines in the country would represent but a frac tion of its probable value. The price of the principle metal—copper—may be re duced one-half, but still it would be a great mine, as about one-half the value of the ore is in gold and silver, and as it carries $75 per ton in all values, tn» mining of ore at a profit that most men would regard as magnificent. The mine, as far as it has been de veloped, including the exploration of a diamond drill below the present work ings, shows sn immense ore chimney 400x600 feet across, that has been ex plored by shafts, tunnels, and drill holes to the depth of 1400 feet. How far it will be possible to work the mine before reachig the heat limit 1( would be impossible to say, but a rea sonable estimate is 3.000 feet, but with out trespassing upon the future the proved ore bodies contain values that al most stagger belief. The mine, to the depth of 1400 feet, contains 336,000,000 cubic feet of ore, and estimating eleven cubic feet to the ton, which is a liberal allowance, there are 32,000,000 tons prac tically in sight, which at $75 a ton, which 1 am assured Is the average value of the ore, represents $2,500,000,000, with more than half of the available ore body yet untouched. ''1 These are not fancy figures but repre sent the actual production of the prop erty and can be veried in time. It has frequently been asserted of late years tint Senator Clark has refused L>o.cJ 4 000 for the property. Of this I have no knowedge, but I know how engineers are treated who come to look at the property. They are given carte blandhe to take measurements ami samples and examine the books and when they get through they are ready to make a re port to their principles which effectually disposes of their hopes of ever becoming owners of the United Verde. WANT THE PARAD i ABATED Business Men Complain to the Mayor That the Little Elephant and Band Are a Nuisance. Mayor Davey was visited by a Broad way merchant today regarding the parading several times a day of the ele phant and band of the trained animal show now exhibiting on Broadway, near the Finlen hotel. The merchant insisted that the ele phant and band which march to Main street and thence back again to their tent are a nuisance of the worst sort, and he asked Mayor Davey to prevent a continuance of it. He said that it Is almost impossible for the firms on that block to tie their horses in front of their doors without fear of the elephant and band frightening them. He said that the elephant always frightens a number of horses at each parade, and that the band simply sets them wild. He con tinued: «> "The Boston & Montana band gener ally has a quieting effect on the animals, but the circus band whoops up troublé in great shape. Not being a musician, 1 cannot tell the reason for this, but tve all can imagine- Really I have had "a headache since that outfit came to town and started their continuous perform ance." • T The band complained of by the express man belongs to the trained animal shdw which came to Butte at the opening of the street carnival, and has been doing a lucrative business since that time. Tt has been the custom for the animal trainer to lead his show elephant Up Broadway to Main, where the band, con sisting of six pieces—sometimes—and a snare drum, played with one stick, gives a nopen air concert. The parade com plained of then marches back to the grounds, next the Finlen, amid the strains of noise from the band. Several "speelers" follow the parade and make the announcement of the show which is about to take place. From noon until 11 o'clock at night this performance con tinues, and many of the people who are compelled to spend the days in that vicinity take to the tall timber when their day's work is done.
