The Utah & Northern has this week taken
off one Accommodation train between Butte
and Gsrrison-the one that ran south early
In the afternoon and returned north near
midnight. The Northern Pacific has also
taken off the local passenger train between
Helena and Heron. The diminished travel
to Cear d'Alens is the occasion Of the latter,
and the fact that the Union Pacific Is now
shipping over its lines large proportion OF
the Butte ores that hitherto went via the
Northern Pacific, accounts for the former.
Splendid rains, which appeared to DO gen
sral, fell Monday and Tuesday nights. The

lev there had been considerable rain and
crops were up nicely, but this thorough soak
Ing will be good anyhow.

tortionists. The Julians are connected with
the Comique company at Butte, but their
fame is so just and their acting SO worthy
