DEATH OF MRS. BUTTS.
Mr. J. H. BREWSTER received a telegram Wednesday morning announcing the death of Mrs. Ida May BUTTS at her home in Washington, D.C.
Mrs. BUTTS, a sister of the late Mrs. J. H. LEMMON of Eagle, became interested in the Polar Star mining properties on New York mountain a number of years ago. Following her interest here she made her summer home in Eagle for several years and invested thousands of dollars in the property. But failing health brought about by the natural infirmities of advancing years, caused her abandonment of plans for the development of the property three years ago, and prevented her annual visits here.
Mrs. BUTTS was a very active, energetic woman when in her health and prosecuted her business affairs vigorously and with acumen. Her friends here were many and the news of her death was received with much expression of regret.
