the very front rank, and the excitement
was intense. After passing the one-hal1

a powerful horse, and bis efforts at THIS
point were tremendous. Down the

inexorable. He had unquestionably

special reference to service in u dry
climate, and have many advantages
over other wagons shipped here. Every
piece of timber about them is season
dried-not kiln dried as are the timbers

ABeneht tor Benton.

One Of our prominent merchants, and
one we'll posted as to current and prob
able events in the Northwest territory,
said to a RIVER PRESS representative
yesterday:
"tThere will be an unexpected demand
on Fort Benton's trade this fall-one
that many are not looking for. The
Canadian Pacific railroad will be COM
pleted to the mountains early this fall,
after which there will not be work for
near the number Of teams and men that
are now employed. A large per centage
of these men are Americans, and they
will naturally drift back this way, and
| may safely say that hundreds Of them
will settle permanently in the country
tributary to Benton, which offers every
advantage to the farmer or the stock
man."
"But will they not settle along the
line of the c.. P. railroad? n broke in the
scribe.
"Some will, of course, but not many
OF The AIlICIICHflS, WHICH cACJ hIOH taoo
equal, or better, advantages are offered
them here. The hundreds Of teams
that have passed through here en- route
to the railroad, and many others gone
north without striking Benton, are
bonded for a term of six months, after
which they are required to pay 20 per
cent. of the value of their outfits If they
remain. AS their work will be COM
pleted about that time it is safe to say
that a large majority will strike for
Montana again. and Fort Benton being
the nearest point will catch the most of
the returning railroaders. Some of
them may not be desirable citizens, but
many are, and we must take the bad
with the good. I look for a big fall
boom from this source, as well as others"
Any one who will stop q moment to
give The subject a thought will see that
the gentleman has based his calculations
upon sound sense and reason.

The Lewiston (Nle.) journal says
The birch ia first sawed into sticks four
or five feet long and seven-cighths of an
inch to three inches square, according
to the size of the spool to be produced.
These sticks are thoroughly seasoned.
They are sawed into short blocks, and
the blocks are dried in n hot air kiln.
At the time they are sawed hole is
bored through them. One whirl of the
little block against sharp knives, shaped
by n 'attern, makes the spool at the rate
of one per second. A small boy feeds
the spool machine, simply placing the
blocks in spout and throwing out the
knotty or defective stock. The machine
il automatic, but cannot do the sorting.
The spools are revolved rapidly in
drums and polish themselves. For
some purposes they are dyed yellow,
red, or black. They are made into
thousands Of shapes and sizes. When
one sees spool of thread 400 yards"
or 1000 yards" these words do not sig.
nifty that the thread has been measured,
but that the spool has been gagged and
il supposed to contain 30 much thread
When silk or linen or n cotton firm
wants n spool made it sends pattern to
the spool maker. The pattern gives the
size and shape of the barrel and of the
head and bevel. These patterns deter
mine the amount of thread that the
spool will hold. The factory turns ont
100, 600 gross of spools per day, and con.
snmes $500 cords of birch annually.
Thirty-fve hands are employed in the
mill. During the winter $50 wood.
choppers are sometimes employed.

THE CHANGE OF TINE.
TIE NEW TIME STANDARD WHICH
HAS NOW GONE INTO EFFECT.
How the Change wns 1IRdc-Its Adoption Ia
br Almost Universal Through the Coun'
try-DescripiioB Of the New System.

At 70 o'clock Sunday, Nov. IS, there
was such shaking-up Of the clocks and
watches Of this country rs never hap
pcned before. The new system of
standard times for the United States,
Canada and British America went into
effect ut that hour. When the moment
that the sun crossed the seyenty.tiith
meridian Of longitude ut noon was de.
termined ut the United States Observa-
tory at Washington the time was tee-
prnphcd throughout the country, so that
there could be general resetting Of
clocks and watches. The Western
Union time ball was dropped at the
,tandard noon hour, and the time balls
ut the various scientific Obseryatories at
different places recorded the hour.
The new system Is readily explained.
Hereafter there will he only five sets Of
"times" among all the principal towns
Of this continent. The country has
been divided of into five parallel sec.
tons, running north and south, each
section being fifteen degrees Of long.
tude in width, representing just one
hours time by the passage Of the sun.
The sections will be designated rs the
Eastern, the Atlantic, the Valley, the
Mountain and the Pacific. The Eastern
will comprise all that part Of the cont.
Hent lying between line which passes
near the city OF ST. John, n. b., and the
Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic section
will comprise the seaboard States from
Maine to Florida, on the east, and the
tier Of States from Ohio TO Alabama Oh
the west, also the Lower Lakes. The
Valley section will comprise Mississippi
