THIRD MEETING OF THE FIRE CON-
xIrrEE.-The Committee met mt the Court
House 10 q. IN. yesterday and was called to
order by the President
On motion, the reading Of the minutes of
the previous meeting was dispensed with.
The report of the assessment made by the
Fire Commissioners was presented by Mr.. G.
b. Stephenson, from which report it appears
that the Commissioners have assessed the I'M
proved property on Main street, from Watson
Bros, up, at fifty cents per front foot and
twenty-five cents per front foot below
the place named. Bridge street Is assessed at
fifty cents per front foot from Clore street to
Walcott Hursch's (opposite Water street.
and from there up twenty-five cents per
front foot; and they recommend that on
Wood street, from Main to Joliet, the pro-
perty be assessed at fifty cents per foot 'front.'
age, and that collections be made in "China-
town" on the same basis.
The report of the Commissioners was re-
ceived and adopted, il being generally under
stood that the said assessment is made only to
meet immediate wants in the organization Of
fire company.
On motion, the collectors were authorised
to employ q sub-collector to collect on Wood
street and in Chinatown" who is to be
paid out of the fund collected.
IL was resolved that one hundred canvass
buckets be obtained, (as specified by resolu-
tion) the same to cost 50. SO each in currency.
It was moved and adopted, that in the pub
lication of the proceedings of this meeting,
the property holders be requested to meet at
the Court House at n O'Clock p. m, to-day
Sd inst, TO ratify or reject the assess
ment made.

RETURNED.-Genera Neil Howie re-
turned last night from Rt. Benton and yicini-
", to which part he has been on business, and
states that everything Is quiet below. The
river Is open at Benton. party of Indians
crossed the river n few days ago on their wa y
to the Piegan camp with about thirty head of
horses, they reported them taken from the
crows. Mr.. G. A. Broadwater arrived last
night at Sun river from Camp Cook. Major
Clinton and party will arrive at Camp Cook
tomorrow. II is stated that there has been
over fifty of the Bloods, Peigan and North
Crows killed during thr past winter, in battles
among themselves. This is inueed pleasant
information. The General says the coun-
try Is barren Of snow except in the noun
tains-
DEPARTED.-By this mornings coach,
John Featherstun, Esq., Deputy u. s. Mar
shal, took his departure for White Pine. 1t
was in the autumn Of 1868 that Mr.. Feather
stun came to Montana, and from that day to
the present one he has ever stood 5rst among
her citizens. During the dark days of Mon
tana's history he proved himself brave and
true man, and IN all the relations of life,
whether Official or social, be has sustained
character above reproach, and . reputation
destitute of suspicion. He has held many
positions of public honor and trust, and be
has IN each and every one proved himseli
competent, worthy and fully equal to the
occasion. We part with John, wishing hIu
God speed TO the silver regions, and an abun-
dant prosperity when in them, and every cit
ixeo of our beautiful city viii say amen.
The SNow.-It is unnecessary to state
that universal expression of joy and thank
fulness pervaded our community when the
snow storm began TO come down. It's reg
ular good old fashioned affair. No base of
the weather could have been so welcome.
The universal complaint has been uttered that
there was no snow. The fact vxs realized,
that to have prosperity next Summer We must
have snow. Now the snow has come. We
are not informed of the extent of the storm,
but expect that IL is not OF q local nature.
It will be of incalculsble beneft TO the Ter
ritory, and appreciated by all who have goods
10 sell and mines TO work. May this be bat
the beginning of large yield " snow.

JOHN A. NELSON.

LISDsLEY MINING CoMPANY-In a
conversation with Col. Nelson, who has the
management of the working of this Company,
we learned that the work of sinking on the
shaft was being vigorously prosecuted. It
appears that in the sinking of the shaft q
fresh vein of water was struck, which poured
in upon the workmen In an earnest manner.
To remove tn is water and Co keep the shaft
dry, two large Chinese pumps have been in
troduced, which affords a pumping capacity
Of about one hundred inches of water, mi
ner's measure. By means of these the Col.
apprehends no difficulty in keeping the shaft
free from wnter for the present. He is now
engaged In digging to the bedrock. IL is
the intention of this Company, notwith-
standing the unfortunate circumstances
which have hindered and surrounded il las
explained In q card, elsewhere,) to continue
the prospecting upon this shaft until the bed
rock is reached. We understand that many
of the public spirited merchants of this city
have extended TO this Company many favors,
and have made it possible for the desired OBJ
ject to be attained in a short time

Whereas, il appears from a card published
in the Post of the 1st of March, and signed
by M. A. Lindsley, late of the firm of M A
LIndsley a Co., Helena, and a member of the
"Lindsiey Mining Company" of Ten Mile
Greek, /" had left the Territory for the States,
and by so doing had placed u., the under
signed, in q false position towards the public
of Helena therefore we take this means to
inform said public the true position of affairs
so that they may exonerate rs for any delln-
quencies of the said NJ. A Lindsey. The
said NJ. A. Lindsey received from Messrs.
Hall Miller, Brown, Hunt and Others the
sum of $70e, also the sum of $274 as assess
ments and recorders fees, all of which money
il was understood should be applied towards
Iiquidating all debts contracted by the CON-
pany. Ihe indebtedness of the company is
about $3.50, and it appears by investigation
that no portion of the money collected or
received by M. A Lindsley has been applied
toward paying any of the Company's debts,
excepting some SIS; and il is hereby declared
that the said NJ. A. Lindsey has nothing
further to do with this company, and we, A.
representatives of the company, assure the
public that the work Cd Ten Mile Creek is
being vigorously carried on, and with every
prospect of good success, and that any debts
of the company will we are satisfied be fully
satisfied before the expiration of the month.

Of tue detective police throughout this

The Laboring Crasse. In England.

The London correspondent of the New
| York Times draws q dismal picture of
| life among the laboring classes in Eng
land. He says: Millions of people in
England live almost entirely upon baker 8
bread. Here, for example, is the way of
life of sober, hard-working Englishman,
who earns 1884, week (say 81 so gold
standard), and has a wife and ak chill
dren. He neither drinks nor smokes, and
hands over his whole wages to his wife.
This is common practice in well-ordered
families. She pays As. week for rent I;
Is. for Goals; candles, soap, etc., Sd. q
penny q week each for the ak children
to a burial club, 3D.; ON doctors bill
due, Is. Here are "a. Sd. of the l8s.
gone, and nothing to eat. Now the bill
of fare for those eight persons: One
pound Of bread day for each the
children scarcely taste anything
else comes to 7s. week; twenty
pounds of potatoes, 3D.; one pound
butchers meat on Sunday and two
pounds of salt pork for week days, Is;
one pound sugar, half pound of butter,
one ounce tea, I'D, make up the weeks
account. No milk. no fruit, no clothing.
The only way they can have is for the
children to get work or to die, then some
thing would come in from the burial club.
Thousands on thousands of men work
for two-thirds these wages or less. Plenty,
even in large towns, work for lis week.
Thousands cannot taste even the Sunday
meat dinner, Great numbers never taste
butter; they get little dripping as SUBJ
stitute. In London shop of Satur-
day night, you will see great heaps of
penny and half-penny packets of tea and
sugar ready done up for people of
moderate incomes. | once had the curl
osity to buy halispenny packet of tea
cents worth. 1t resembled musty
clover hay, and decoction tasted as you
might fancy the drippings from heap
of dead leaves to taste at the end of
hard winter" This is q striking con-
trast to the condition of the same class
in America. 1t seems too that an inves-
tigation of the prisons and warehouses;
discloses the fact that the inmates, with
but little to do, are actually better cared
for, fed and clothed, when being os-
tensbly punished az criminals, than the
majority Of the honest laborers are; thus
Offering a premium to crime instead of
honest industry, by holding out to offend
ers the inducements of good food, cloth.
ing, medical attendance and light work.
