Mary Stack was a Very Old Lady
Mrs. Clark's mother was a very old lady Spokane Chronicle, 1906 |
Mrs. Mary Stack, the mother of Mrs. Patrick Clark, died this morning at the Clark residence, 2208 Second avenue, of old age. Mrs. Stack was 78 years old and her death was caused by exhaustion following a slight attack of illness.It is possible, since she'd been ill before the "exhaustion" that she'd actually been septic.
Mrs. Stack left two other children besides Mrs. Clark -- Mrs. John Bresnahan of this city and John Stack of Republic. The latter has been notified and will come to the city immediately.
Mrs. Stack was born in Ireland and came to this country 60 years ago, settling in Iowa. From there she moved to Montana and then came to Spokane to live. She has resided here for the past 20 years with Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Clark.
The funeral will probably be held the day after tomorrow, although it is not defintely settled. Interment will be at Fairmount. Dr. Luhn and Dr. Witter attended Mrs. Stack.

Mary Stack Was a Pioneer of Butte
Mary Mahoney Stack was a pioneer of Butte The Butte Daily Post, 1906 |
New information here:
Mrs. Mary Stack ... was one of the early residents of Butte. Her children and grandchildren were present at her death. ... She had been ill for three weeks.
When she was 15, her family emigrated to this country and made Dubuque, Iowa, their home for several years. ... Mrs. Stack was married and soon after, when gold was first found in Montana, she went with her husband in the first rush here.
... they settled first in Helena, where Mr. Stack died. Mrs. Stack kept a miners' boarding house in Walkerville, when she came here. She cheerfully endured the harships which fell upon both men and women in those days when Butte was merely a raw, rough mining camp. Mrs. Stack was a woman much loved by her neighbors and is held in kindly memory by many a miner and prospector. From Butte ... she went to the Coeur d"Alenes, when the mining fever drew people to that region, and then as she was getting along in years she went to live with her son-in-law, Patrick Clark, in Spokane ....

This event was at 2124 First Avenue, not far from the Clark residence. Musicians played cello, piano, dramatic readings from "Ben Blair" to great applause. I chose not to research "Ben Blair."

William A. Clark, ex-senator of Montana in the news
The Spokane Press, 1906 |
This is the sixth article written by Marlen E. Pew. He apparently wrote a series of articles about the "millionaires' club" and this is about William A. Clark (who is probably not related, but with whom Patsy Clark was associated. He was involved in gold scam, and desired fame. About his senator-ship, some claim he bought his votes. He represents Montana, but lives in New York, and is not admitted into NY's fashionable set.
At the age of 66, he married a young school girl who was once his ward in France. He visited and married her there, and only made the annoucement of his marriage on the birth of their child. It makes you wonder.

Patsy Clark for Senator
Friends of the Spokane mining magnate are discussing this title for "Patsy," and it is believed by a number of people that he may be induced to enter the race ....
Mr. Clark himself left for Coeur d'Alene lake this morning to spend the week end and could not be reached to either affirm or deny the report that he would be a dandate.
For some time past it has been rumored that Mr. Clark had senatorial aspirations and ... he might consent to the use of his name at the primaries.
In Butte, ... it is said to be common gossip that he would like to go to the national capital as senator form Washington.
Friends of Mr. Clark here are said to be quietly boosting him as the democratic candidate.
It is understood that Charles Sweeney, who made an unsuccessful campaign at the last election, will not try to capture the coveted honor. Mr. Clark may now be persuaded to try his luck with the state legislature.
Be sure to keep an eye on that Charles Sweeney. We will run across his name in the future.
