CHAS, CONNON DEAD
MINING MAN SUCCUMBS TO ATTACK
OF BLOOD POISONING-WAS
FORMERLY WEALTHY.
SPECIAL TO ltIE INTER MOUNTAIN.
S~elena, Nov. p.-Charles Connon, for a num
ber of years a well-known mining man in this
section, is dead after a brief illness. Blood.
poisoning was the cause of death, resulting
from an injury on the leg.
lie did not pay much attention to the wound
at first, but complicated symptoms rapidly
developed and he was brought here for treat
--ent. Several years ago he and his brother,
David Connon of Whitehall sold the Stray
Horse mine, near Winston, to the Ajax Min*
ing company of Ifelena for $6n,ooo.
Some of the money was deposited in the
safety deposit vault of the Merchant's Na.
tional bank, prior to its suspension, and the
brothers went to Europe. Upon their return
they claimled that $to,ooo of the money had
been stolen from the safety box by some per.
son in the bank, who possessed a duplicate
key to the box as well as the master key.
The affair was a sensation, as it was sprung
soon after the bank closed. The Connon
brothers began suit in the courts against Rfc
ceiver E. T. Wilson of the suspended bank to
compel him to issue to them ,i receiver's
certificate for the money nost.
The case was contested in the courts, but
the jury found for the plaintiffs, and they
received a certificate which entitled them to a
proportion of the $so,ooo based upon the per.
centage that the bank paid its depositors.
Mr. Connon was a native of Scotland and
leaves a widow on his ranch at Ovando as
well as his brother at. Whitehall. He will be
buried here.

MARTIAL LAW PROCLAIMED IN CON
SEQUENCE OF AGITATION BY
ARMENIAN REVOLUTIONISTS
sY ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Constantinople, Nov. 9.-Martial law
has been proclaimed in the district of
Hassan Klala, province of Erzeroum, Asia

the part of Hentchakists, an arm of the
Armenian Revolutionary society.
Two bands of Hentchakists recently
crossed the Russo-Turkish frontier with
the intention of inciting the inhabitants
to rise against the Turkish government,
but they were quickly overtaken by
troops.
One band was exterminated and the sec
ond was driven back into Russian terri

MARTEN FARM IS
LATEST NOVELTY
FLATHEAD COUNTY MAN WILL TRY
HIS HAND AT 'RAISING THE
PETS FOR A LIVING.
FURS ARE VERY VALUABLE
Bring From Three Dollars to Fifteen
Dollars a Set-Are Not Easily
Trapped or Killed.
Libby, Nov. g.-A marten farm is thr
latest Montana Industry. F. R. Lowrcy
has announced his intention to engage in
the business of raising marten. He has
it all figured out that there is a barrel or
two of money in an enterprise of that
kind and he intends putting in the coming
winter in the main Cabinet range about
25 miles south of Troy for the purpose of
trapping the animals with which to stock
his farm.
He has not yet decided where he will
locate the proposed industry, but it will
probably be somewhere in the vicinity of
Libby. This feature of the proposition
will be decided upon when he returns from
the mountains next spring.
Tenderfoot.
Mr. Lowrey is a nephew of the Ross
brothers of this place and came out here
from his home in Iowa last summer on a
visit and after spending a few weeks in
the mountains decided to remain. Last
winter he accompanied his uncles into the
mountains south of Troy, where they went
to do the annual representation work on
some of their mining property and the
young man put in most of his time trap
ping marten and other fur-bearing animals.
Although an entire stranger to this man
ner of living he rapidly acquired the knack
of baiting and setting his traps and the
result was that he camne out in the spring
with a goodly oundle of furs, for which
he received quite a large sum of money.
And this success was achieved under the
disadvantage of not only being an entire
stranger to the business but of having a
very inferior outfit.
Mr. Lowrey is a graduate of an electrical
engineering college and is a well informed
young man. From a course of training
along these lines to plowing through the
deep snows of winter in almost inacces
sible portions of mountain fastnesses is
quite a contrast and one which lends a
fascination to the venture which is hard
to overcome.
He intends taking in his outfit of traps
and supplies and will remain in the moun
tains all alone for probably six months.
In addition to the skill necessary to so
placing the traps as to catch the animals
he will have to exercise a rare caution
not to maim or kill them. After catching
them he will have to feed and care for
them until they can be brought out next
spring. It is a novel idea and the suc
cess of the venture will be watched with
considerable interest.
As is well known the marten is a very
valuable fur-bearing animal, and although
small, being about as large as a good
sized cat, the pelts are worth from $3 to
$S5, according to the size, color and con
dition of the hide. Thus it will be seen
that if success attends the effort to do
mesticate and they will breed and thrive
in captivity and the quality of the fur
does not deteriorate, the possessor of a
marten ranch will have an institution
which will in time make a gold mine look
like a white chip.
LOSES A FOOT WHILE
OUT AFTER THE BIRDS
SPECIAL TO TIlE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Helena, Nov. 9.-Thomas Maylone is the
latest victim of the careless hunter and
his gun. Maylone lost his left foot while
hunting ducks at Kleinschmidt's lake, z4
miles north of the city, Sunday.
William E. Mills, who was hunting with
Maylone, is responsible for the accident.
They were proceeding through the brush
on the shore of the lake, Maylone in the
lead, when Mills' shotgun, which he was
carrying full cocked, went off, the charge
landing in Maylone's foot.
Mills carried his companion to a con
veyance and hurried him to town, where
Dr. Treacy amputated the foot to save the
man's life. Maylone conducts a sationery
store on Helena avenue, while Mills is a
local bricklayer. Maylone is married and
has two children. Mills is quite despon
dent over the result of his carelessness.
WATER SUPPLY INSUFFICIENT
State May Put in Its Own System of
Pipes in Helena.
SPECIAL TO TIHE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Helena, Nov. 9.-It may be necessary
for the state to put in its own system of
waterworks for the purpose of providing
the capitol with an adequate supply at a
reasonable figure. The cost of water to
the state is already out of proportion and
as the supply is by no means sufficient,
the feasibility of the state putting in some
sort of a system is generally indorsed.
It is proposed to sink a well in the hills
back of the capitol, or to buy some water
right and pipe the water to the building.
Last summer there was not sufficient water
to irrigate the state house grounds, and
now that trees are being planted that will
require considerable water the need of a
more adequate supply becomes more ap
parent.

GOVERNMENT MAPS
OF TREASURE STATE
EXPERTS HAVE FINISHED flEPORT
ON SAYPO QUADRANGLE IN
NORTHERN SECTION.
IN THE SUN RIVER REGION
Land Shown Lies Wholly on the Eastern
Slope of the Continental Divide
and Is Well Watered.
The United States geological survey
has just published a map of the Saypo
quadrangle in Northwestern IMonltana.
This quadrangle embraces an area cover
ing jo minutes of latitude and longitude,
extending from 47 degrees 30o minutes to
48 degrees oo minutes latitude, and from
tsa degrees jo minutes to s13 degrees so
minutes longitude, and contains ns0 square
miles.
It lies wholly on eastern slope of the
Continental Divide. The Sun River moun
tains extend through the central portion
from north to south and form the most im
portant topographic feature. These moun
tains, which are extremely rough, rise
from an altitude on the plains on the east
of 4,650 feet above sea level to 8,865 feet
in the highest peak. They are composed
of a number of small ranges that lie paral
lel to one another and have a general north
and south trend.
The summits of these short ranges are
usually beset with sharp pintlucles and
viewed from a distance present a typical
sierra or saw-like appearance, contrasting
strongly with the level plains that occupy
the eastern third of the quadrangle.
Water Courses.
Several small streams rise in these
mountains and flow eastward to join the
Sun river. Hlere also the Teton river has
its source. The valley of the Sun river oc
cupies the western part of the quadrangle
and separates the Sun River mountains
from the main chain of the Rockies, which
form in Montana the Continental Divide.
Sun river itself runs in the northwest
corner of the quadrangle, Bows southward
almost to the southern boundary, turns
abruptly to the east and then cuts through
the mountains in a deep, narrow canyon,
one of the most picturesque in Montana.
There are no settlements in the mountain
ous portions of the quadrangle, but the
eastern plain is well occupied by the
ranches of sheep and cattle raisers.
The map of the quadrangle is made on
the scale of s ::50oo, or nearly two miles
to the inch. The topographic features
are represented by contour lines of eleva
tion representing vertical intervals of too
feet. All roads and trails are shown, the
former by two parallel lines and the latter
by a dotted line. The location of all
houses ii designated by small square dots.
The linear control of the map was derived
from accurately located triangulation sta
tions supplemented by plane-table loca
tions and traverses. The vertical control
was secured by a network of spirit-level
lines run over the area.
Three Colors.
Thirty-four permanent 'bench marks were
established, many of them being on sum
mits of high peaks.
,), The map is printed in three colors, the
waters being in blue, the topographic
features-roads, railroads, towns, etc., and
all lettering for names-in black. A full
explanation of the topographic methods
employed and conventional signs used is
printed on the back of each map. The
maps can be procured from the director of
the United States geological survey, Wash
ington, D. C.
