Arrangements Being Made For a Great
Meeting of the Organization In June.

A meeting of the Turn Verien was held
Monday night at their hall, West Granite
street, there being a large attendance. The
object of the meeting was to take prelimi-
nary steps for the proper entertainment of
the visitors who will attend the Territorial
Bezark to be held in this city early in June
next. The gathering is composed OF all the
Veriens in Montana, o four in number,
VIZ: Butte, Helena, Wickes and Bozeman,
and it is probable there will be others prior
TO the date OF meeting. The convention
will in addition to attending to routine
business elect a delegate to attend the
session of the North American Turner
Bind to be held in ST. Louis. 1t is
also suggested that a professional
teacher of athletics be engaged and that
classes both male and female be established.
A committee of seven was appointed to
make the necessary arrangements for the
accommodation and entertainment OF the
guests Oh the occasion of the Bezark. 1t
is expected the visitors will arrive on q
special train and be met at the depot by
the home organization and that there will be
street parade. During the stay, which will be
several days, there will be a banquet and
d ball. Among the business was the election
Of Simon HaHswirth as trustee, vice Dan
Gamer, and Prof. Homburg rs secretary,
vice Wolfe.

Is There any Reason Why Eastern Capi-
tai Cannot be Invested in Buttee

In all the towns and cities of the West
and on the Pacific slope, there have been
recently wonderful advances in the price of
real estate, md the transactions have been
so large that they nave resulted in what is
called a boom. From Duluth to Southern
California there has been no exception in
any city OF any Importance t. the rule,
and to tell the truth some of the cities thus
affected are OF no Importance. Among the
great or growing cities that nave felt the
good effects Of this influx OF outside CAPT.
tai, and the spirit OF speculation may be
mentioned Denver, Colo, Helena, M. t.,
Spokane Falls, W. T., Los Angeles, San
Diego, and other points in California. Live
men with confidence in themselves, with
faith in the future of their respective cities,
and with money at their call have invaded
each OF the places named, and nave made
an increase in values which are really re-
markabie. Salt Lake City is the last to feel
the impetus given to q community, or
the residents thereof, by a class OF
men who can realize possibilities and who
are not afraid to back their Judgment by
money. With its wonderful opportunities
for progress and development, why should
not Butte seek to add to it's inhabitants
some Of the gentlemen OF this class, men
whose active nerve and knowledge should
commend them to the hearty consideration
Of every good citizen. Butte does not need
what is technically known as a boom, yet
while there is SO much idle capital seekingin-
vestment SO near it's portals it should i'm
prove the opportunity and invite it hither.
The talk OF uncertain titles is a ghost that
should be laid, and that too in a summary
manner nv the buSinaaS mon Of the town
1t is true that in the small area covered by
the tOwnsite patent, the Smokehouse and
Destroying Angel lodes claim adverse titles,
and there is litigation, yet it does not fol
low that Butte will for ever six months be
confined to it's present insignificant limits.
Reincorporation will treble its size, and
the surface land included in the
increase car safely be said to be
without a cloud. In addition there
are beyond the proposed limits any
quantity of land available for residence or
business purposes to which a deed can be
given that is as clear as the right OF st.
Peter to guard the gates of heaven. Under
these circumstances 1t is clearly the duty of
the business men to formally invite atten-
ton OF capital to the possibilities Of Butte,
with it's largely increasing mining plants.
and the rapid growth OF It's railroad facili-
ties. A company which does not desire to
be bold spectators, but which does seek to
make safe investments could come to this
city, procure suitable land, build small
comfortable houses, to take the place OF
shacks, and steadily realize 10 or ~ per
cent. upon their investment. The perma-
nency OF the city is assured and this ques-
ton should be discussed and agitated
while money is roaming around seeking
whereon to lay it's head.

outlying property, it is reasonably sure tb >
the proposition will be carried, as The
amended charter has been shorn OF it's
objectionable features and no Org n;zad
opposition has as yet been developed, II
is one OF those cases in which even its
opponents, il there be any, will soon find
out their mistake when tbau
ascertain that the protection given
them and the improvements that will be
made will SO largely enhance the value Of
their property. The committee having the
petitions in charge have made no effoIt to
canvass for signatures, yet a sufficient nun.
Der have been voluntarily obtained to meet
the requirements OF the law. 1t is probable,
however, thatsome OF the gentlemen will pre-.
sent the lists to-day with IA view OF making
them more formidable. 1t is certain that If
a thorough canvass had been made there
would nave been at least thrice the reoui-
site quota OF signers.

The Old Ship of Zion.

The rendition OF the building OF the "Old

Southern Methodist Church last night, was
a novel and successful affair. The little
builders had been erfectly drilled, and the
"Old Ship" vent up according to the pro
sramme, the building being interrupted at
Intervals for the rendition OF songs and
rotations by the builders. There was a
good attendance, and the general wish was
that the ship should be rebuilt at an early
