Thread Name: Lyr Req: Butte's Fatal Explosion
Subject: Lyr Req: Butte's Fatal Explosion
In 1895, stored dynamite in a warehouse in Butte, Montana, exploded and killed over 100 people.

A song was written about it shortly afterward by two ladies. A tv program on the explosion on PBS Spokane (or Seattle?) showed a quick shot of the sheet music. The title was "Butte's Fatal Explosion."
I haven't been able to locate the sheet music or the lyrics.
I missed most of the program so I don't know if more information was given.

Did anyone see the program, or does anyone know where the sheet music can be found?
