THE TELEPHONE SYSTEM.

lying Camps Next Spring.

As stated in yesterdays TINES
ketchum was connected with HALEY
by telephone about II o'clock yester-
day morning. BY 2 o'clock in the
afternoon the Philadelphia Company
works were connected, and Superin-
tendent Moulton, at the works, and
the Local Manager, at the Central
Office, exchanged congratulations. The
line was therefore in complete work
ing order.
The people Of Ketchum, alive to
the advantages of the telephone sys-
tenn, now desire the Elkhorn belt,
Warm Springs Creek, and Boyle
Mountain to be connected with tho
system; but it is probably too late in
the season for any decisive steps to be
taken this fall. Next spling, how,
ever, the telephone wires will be ex.
tended to Atlanta, Rocky Bar, and all
outlying camps.

A Belligerent Prisoner.

About o'clock last Wednesday
evening Constable Frank Oliver ar
rested Hugh Doherty in front Of >'ter-
rett & Mctca!t's saloon, and started
off to the county jail with him. The
prisoner went willing enough until he
got into the shade near the Jail, when
he wheeled back suddenly and struck
the constable a powerful blow in the
face, SHINING his check and the right
side of the nose. AS soon as the cou-
stable recovered himself he struck the
prisoner couple Of blows, cutting
him on the head, and causing him to
bleed like stuck pig. He then drag
ged him to jail. Yesterday morning
Judge Parsons fined the man $40 and
costs.

CONTRARY to the general expecta-

the Oregon Short Line and Wood

IN t"e ZINES about a week ago, was
not made on the first; but the new
time tables are expected every dav,
and will probably be here by the 10th
instant. There is no doubt that il has
been determined on, as the train men

$40, as at present, and arrive here
about O'Clock in the morning. They
Will, however, get to Granger about
the same time as now, to-wit: 4:lO in

THE PURCHASE OF ORES.
How the Business is Regulated Mt
lpallyille.

At Leadville, Col, where 17-ounce
ore is worked at profit, the regula
tons for the assay and purchase OF
ores have been reduced to fine
point. and the following circular, dated
Leadvllle, October II, 1888, which
explains itself, has been issued:
Tc NINE OWNERS AND NINE MAN
AYERS:
We, the undersigned, engaged in
the business Of purchasing and smelt-
ing ore, have arrived at the conclusion
that the methods of assaving and set
ting for ores heretofore existing are
vexatlous and often unjust, have
agreed that, on all contracts made
after this date, the following rules will
be strictly adhered to:
First. Assays shall be made bv
sta ndard scoriicatio,,.
Second. Moisture shall he deter
mined by our assayers: and no splits
shall be recognized.
Thi d. In silver assays, contents
shall be noted only in full and one
half ounces, that is, every fraction
under one half ounce shall be omitted.
Fourth. Gold in ores shall be noted
in pennyweiehts only, no payments to
be made for less than one tenth of an
ounce contents per ton.
Fifth. In lead assays, fractions tf
units shall not be noted, and no pay
ments shall be made for less than five
per cent contents per ton
Sixth. The splitting OF assays shall
be discontinued, and settlement made
on our assays il within one ounce of
silver, one-twontieth ounce Of gold,
and one per cent of lead Of control
assays. fla difference of more than
one ounce of silver, one-tv en- eth
ounce of gold, or one per cent OF lead
exists, the umpire sample shall be
assaved.
Seventh. No person shall be allowed
to serve as umpire unless in the en-
ploy Of the smelling works subscribed
hereto, or in the employ of the mines.
Eighth. In case it shall be necessary
to employ an umpire assaver, the
mine-owner or manager shall have the
privilege oe seeking an assayer from
among the smelling assavers. Should
the mine-owner or manager prefer to
have his ore umpired by mine as
saver, then the smelter shall have the
privilege Of making the selection.

PRINCE AND ACTRESS.
Mary Anderson Called to Account for
Some Recent Remarks.

| Some Recent Remarks.
New YORK, Oct. 2S.-The Worlds
London cablegram says: 1t has leaked
out that the Prince of Wales has
called Mary Anderson to account for
her utterances concerning him. At
an interview at the Lyceum Theater
the first question blurted out by his
Royal Highness was: ais it true that
you wouldn't see me?" Miss Ander-
son replied with great deal of appar-
ent embarrassment: 81 said would
not seek the honor" This was so
apparent an evasion that great deal
of comment has been passed in high
quarters and society circles profess
themselves highly astonished at the
lack of Esprit shown by the Princess of
Wales in honoring Miss Anderson by
being present at one of her represcn-
tAtlons.
The Princess before deciding to in
vte Miss Anderson to the Royal box,
sent for Griffin, her manager, and
questioned him closely concerning the
lady's repertoire, the number of years
she had been on the stage, and SO
forth. The Princess then limited that
she wished to see Miss Anderson, and
requested Griffin to send her in. Miss
Andersen, who, under the circum-
stances, did not particularly relish the
meeting, sent back word that she had
made it rule to never see outsiders
during Il performance, and that even
on this occasion she preferred not to
break it. She said, however, she
would be most happy to meet their
Royal Ilighnesses when she had fin
ished her performance. The Princess
then said, 1--WE never wait after the
end of a piece" and negotiations APP
parently closed.
The piece went on and the Royal
party remained, and when it was over,
Miss Anderson was surprised by her
manager, who came with the announce
ment that their Royal Highnesses
were waiting in the passage to see her.
There was, OF course, no further escape,
and she Immediately went from the
stage and met them. The ladv's per-
Torrance had been SO pleasing that
the Princess had evidently forgotten
Nwhat, under ordi' ary circumstances,
would have amounted to an atfront,
aud was ct1usively cordial in her
greeting. The Prince was inclined
to be little more reserved, and as ked
the question quoted above point
blank. The Princess, however, was
not to be put away from her amlable
intentions, and showered her compli-
ments in the most lavish manner. She
said she particularly wished to he in
formed Of any change in the pro.
grammes, and that she was determined
to sec Miss Anderson in all her char
Hcters.

The Little Acorn from which the Postal
Oak Grew.

The first postal service in this
country was established PIG years ago,
when the Virginia colony ordered that
every planter should receive letters
ana send them by messenger to the
next plantation. Five years later a
monthly mail was established between
New York and Boston. The colonial
postal system was the creation of Ben
jamin Franklin. One of tie first
measures Of the new Government after
the war of the revolution was to set
up our present postol1ice system.

LATEST TELEGRAMS,
The Iron Industry.

Pittsburg, 24.-James d. Weeks,
secretary of the Western Iron aSsO-
citation, arrived from Europe to-day,
where he has spent the past four
months investigating iron industries
and their ramifying influence from
capital, laboring classes, national
prosperity, and their direct and in
direct sympathy with American en-
terprise. Much that he has learned
during his foreign tour, which will
be incorporated in the report. SO Tar
as concerns laborers in England,
France, Belgium and Scotland, is
very gloomy. The laborer, he says,
manages to exist; he can not be said
to live where livingis an expression
of life's fulfilment Of content. Wages
are lower than those paid here,
while food is higher. About one
third Of the pudding furnaces in
the north Of England are idle, and
mills are running on part time, and
but partial capacity. In England
is rapidly assuming a
portion of the practical solution of
the labor troubles. Trades unions
are strong and fourishing and have
such financial standing and dignity
as they do not attain in America.

Against the N, p.

New York, 24.-Three suits have
been brought against the Northern
Pacific Railway company, by Dun
ming, Edsall, Hart & Fowler, An.
derson s. Mann, and by Anderson
& Rowland. The object of the
suit is to prevent the issue of new
second mortgage bonds. The ground
taken is that the original act Of in
corporation prohibits the company
from making mortgages or issuing
construction bonds without the con-
sent of Congress. Congress gave its
consent in 1870 that the company
might issue construction bonds and
secure them by mortgage. Under
that consent Jay Cookies mortgage,
subsequently foreclosed, was made.
The position taken by the plaintiffs
is that the authority of Congress
once reversed is exhausted and
could not be repeated. Order to
show cause with stay was granted
in two cases. The argument is to
be heard November /.
