THE FIRE AssEssMENTs,-The fire
committee have completed their labors, and
have placed the assessment rolls in the hands
of the collectors, Messrs. Corbin and Psyn-
ter. These gentlemen will call upon the
property holders, commencing on tomorrow
morning, for the purpose of collecting the
assessments, The committee, after a careful
estimate, require one hundred canvass buck
cts, costing $3.50 each, currency; three more
ladders, twenty-four feet long. and graphing
irons, sl25; one wagon, $3.50; house situated
on Clore street, in the rear of E. s. Wilson's
old store, $500; picks, axes, etc, making a
total of 81 ,425. 1t is TO be hoped that the
property holders who are subject to this as
sessment will respond promptly and without
complaint or grumbling, and that the duties
of the collectors will not be made more disa>
greeable than possible. They donate their
labor and their time they are actually doing
work for the public ard they should receive
every courtesy and consideration that ran be
extended 70 them. We shall, from time to
time, give the result of their labor.
CHANGED HANDs.-We learn that Hus-
sew, Dahler & Co., of Western banking fame,
have concluded purchase of the Miners
Nstional Bank, of Salt Lake City, and will
take charge of all the business connected
with that institution. IL Is, we understand,
the intention of MesSrs. Hussey, Dahler a
Co. to secure a charter for a new banking e.
tablishment, under the name and style of
the First National Bank of Utah." This
leaves but two banking houses in Salt Lake
City, and we learn that of all the immense
business transacted there, uussey, Dahler a
Co. receive the lions share. This may be at
tributed TO their extensive business reputation,
and their courteous and accommodating man
ner of doing business.
= THEATRE.-We were shown private
letter from Mr.. LsngriShe in which he speaks
of his early return to Montana We are re-
jbIced to learn that our city may soon be hon.
ored by the presence of this distinguished
manager, and a first class company of ladies
and gentlemen. We understand that Mr..
Langrisbe has purchased the old Bank Ex-
change with the intention of erecting on the
site a splendid theatre, complete in its proper
tions and perfect in all respects. We believe
that such an enterprise would be a source of
profit, and that Mr.. Lapgrishe is just the man
to take hold of it. He enjoys an experience
as a theatrical manager of over twenty years,
during which time be has accumulated for
tune, and his well known energy, ability and
correct judment q business man, and the
generosity and liberality of our citizens,
would insure to him n handsome return.
Ii. l.. A. LECTURE,-The last Lecture
before the Helena Library Association will
be delivered on Thursday evening next by
j. Sidney Osborne, of this city, at the NJ. E.
Church. The subject selected by Mr.. Osborne
for his theme is one full of interest, and viv-
ID with pleasurable emotions-''The glimpse
of three COntinents." Mr.. Osborne spent n
season in foreign travel, and the gllml ses
that be gives to US viii be gathered from his
personal observations. He is a gentleman
accomplished "a a writer, and weaves words
into pictures q beautiful as the lands of sun
ny skies and vine clad hills over which he
leads US in his wanderings. We hope and ex-
pect to see a crowded house.
RUNNING AGAN.-We regret that We
faiIed TO notice the fact that A. NJ. Hotter &
Bros saw mill, which was destroyed so recently
by FIRE, has been rebuilt t.refurnished with all the
necessary machinery, and Is again In full run
ming order. This is quick work, for il was
generally supposed that it would be impossi-
bic to get il equipped and in working order
before spring. II Is another evidence of the
energy and enterprise which charaStenEes all
the movements of business men In this conn
try They are prepared to turn out lumber
of all kinds, shingles, lAth, also PIaned lum-
