The Happy Packers.

Chicago Herald All the big packers
have private loops running from their
offices to the main Western Union office,
and are switched on to the trunk wires
when they want to send messages to
New York, ST. Louis, Kansas City, Gin
cinnati, or other points. There is u
good deal of feeling in a business way
between all the concerns, but between
the Armours and the Fowlers the rcla-
tion is fierce enough to provoke per-
petual fight if the Fowlers were not such
good Methodists. The Armours, the
other day, got their ''loop" on to u
Kansas City wire and talked in a sacred
ly confidential way to their house at
that end of the line. The Fowlers hap
pened to have their loop on the same
line, and quietly listened to the family
chat and business secrets of their rivals.
A man not familiar with the dust two
packers can raise when they get quar-
reling can have no idea of the muss
raised when the Armours found that
they had been piped Off. The Western
Union people have been put to some
trouble to keep the bucket-shop men off
the board of trade connections, but the
precautions taken in these cases were as
nothing to those taken now to make
sure that when one packer is talking
over wire another has not got his ear
to key "taklng it off.

Story of a Big Steal.

st. Louis Post-Dispatch: "The his
tory of the Denver & Rio Grande road,
under its former management, shows
more clearly than any other the way in
which railroad can be manipulated in
the interest of its officials and at the ex-
pense of its stockholders. This road
was completed from Denver to Pueblo
in 1874, and did good business. A
number Of the directors, however, saw
chance of making fortune, and laid
their plans accordingly. The first
formed a construction company, conceal
ing their own interest in il, but officer
ing it with men entirely controlled by
them. They next represented to the
stockholders the great advantages that
might be gained by building into the
mountains, and induced them to do so.
Contracts were let to the construction
company, and building on great scale
began. No mining camp was too OBJ
scure for the road TO build branch to,
and the projectors of the scheme Sc
cured property at these points
and mnde enormous profits. OF
course the railroad was soon
deeply involved, but the construction
company was most prosperous, and
General James Palmer, president of the
road, erected magnificent house near
Colorado Springs. This state of affairs
continued for some years, but in 1879
was suddenly checked. BY some means,
the particulars of which | do not recol-
lcct, the Atchison, Topeka & Santa E'e
managed to get possession of the DEN
yer & Rio Grande, by an order of court.
and run il in the interests Of that road.
The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe knew

Read the Death Roll

Which the bills of mortality of any
large city may be fifty designated, and
you will find that renal and vesical NAL
aides, that is to say, those that affect
the kidneys or bladder, have a remark
able prominence-we had almost said
prepOnderance. Bright's disease and
diabetes in the chronic stage are rarely
cured, and gravel, catarrh of the blad-
der and enuresis slay many. Yet at the
outset, when the trouble merely
amounts to inactivity of the organs in
volved, the danger may be nullitied by
that pleasant renal tonic and diuretic,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which i'm
parts the requisite amount of tone to
the organs, without over-eXciting them,
and the use of which is convenient, and
involves no elaborate preparation.
Dyspepsia, usual concomitant of renal
complaints, and debility, which they
invariably produce, are remedied by it.
So also are constipation, malarial, rheu-
matte and nervous ailments.

that they had no valid claim TO the
Denver & Rio Grandc, but hoped to he
able to hang the case upiu the court for
year or two, in the meantime retain-
ing possession OF the road. The case
was tried, and decided IN favor of the
Denver IL Rio Graude, but it was at
olce appealed. When il came up be-
fore the higher court, band Of men,
supposed 10 be in the employ of the
Atchison road, endcavored to kidnap
the Judge, senator Bowen, of Colorado.
Bowen escaped, and delivered n most
scathing opinion, denouncing tho Santa
te road. But 1t was again appealed,
and the trial seemed likely to last for
years.
At this juncturc, General Palmer de-
termincd upon master stroke. Care
fully laying his plans, he employed
several armed men, and mt an agreed
time the stations along the road we're
taken possession of, the trains captured
us they drew up, the Atchison, Topeka
q Santa Fc employees replaced by those
of the Denver & Rio Grande, and the
trains went on their way under the new
management. The attorney of the
Santa Fc at Pueblo endeavored to pro-
test, but was run out of the town and all
opposition put down. A more complete
Sap1urc HeNcf never toOk plaCe III tllno
of peace.
From that day the road had no further
trouble with its former antagonist, but
the stockholders troubles had only be-
gun. The stock rose from IS to over 800
and many bought in at this price. AT
this time the road was greatly extended,
many mining camps being reached by
the line, not one of which had money
enough to pay the running expenses,
but the construction company grew
very wealthy, while the mines, reached
by the railroad and owned by its Of
ticials grew very valuable. AT last poo-
pie began to grow weary, prosecution
was threatened, and the directors and
officers very generally withdrew, leav-
ing the road in the hands of those who
have since operated it in the hands of
the stockholders. But those who took
hold of it feathered their nests most
luxuriously, and could well afford to DO
content with what they obtained.

The ScOurge Of Dipththeria.

The death Of Mrs; Celia Thrasher, from
trust the last, sad incident of the scourge
that has afflicted our neighboring town. But
= little past seventeen years, recently mar
RED to q worthy man, and with life opening
hopefully to her, she, who had been caring
for others afflicted with diphtheria, was
stricken down, and after but q brief illness,
died very suddenly. Our neighbors have
been sorely scourged with this dread disease.
Within the past year there have beer %
cases in and about the town, and the graves
Of seven in the Deer Lodge cemetery shows
how fatal has been the work of the destroyer.
We fear our friends do not use the extreme
measures of isolation and quarantine de-
manded to suppress diphtheria. It is q worse
disease and more contagious in summer than
small pox. While children are especially
susceptible to it, even adults advanced in life
are sometimes victims. 1t can be readily
conveyed in clothing to remote places, and
sll persons in contact with cases should use
the precaution of changing clothing, or thor
oughly disinfecting before going in contact
with others, especially young persons. Old
damp buildings are especially favorable to
Its propagation and reten ton, and cases
under such conditions are likely to be most
malignant; but the germ may be conveyed
and fatal results follow even in the dryest
and best ventilated buildings. We trust,
wherever this disease has foothold, that every
precautionary measure will be used
to isolate it, to disinfect premises and to
follow the Rules prescribed by the
Board of Health. Twenty-Five cases in and
Pioneer in a year, and one-third Of
them fatal, while many more have occurred
between there and New Chicago, induces US
to urge earnestly, and with our %sympathies
aroused in behalf of our neighbors aud
in that region, that they use their
exertions to disinfect premises, to
administer prophylactics to children in the
of those afflicted, and to stamp out,
Il possible, this dread disease which is DESC
|ating their homes.

Overhauling Masonic Hall.

Mr.. J. N. Fox, with a force of assistants,
is raising the Masonic Hall building three
feet, and will drop the Hall floor two feet,
thus greatly improving it. We recollect
when its construction was considered-nearly
twenty years ago, when Judge Knowles,
Judge Dance, Elwell, and a dozen other old
timers now gone or removed, discussed
through long hours the proportions and cost
of what was then to be, next to the old Court
House, the finest building in Deer Lodge,
and when it was completed what regal balls
were held in its splendid and commodious
first floor, with the privilege of the hall for
promenade and music. We asked nothing
better then. Deer Lodge ''pointed with
pride" to its magnificent Masonic building,
our hearts were content, and our Butte
friends driving forty miles through SHOWS
and the alkali swamps of Lost Creek to at
tend on state occasions, were filled with envy
when they entered its portals. Conditions
nave changed-somewhat. The building is
not up to the requirements of the times, and
must be overhauled. But that done, it will
be very comfortable quarters, even for the
Masonic fraternity, which is now growing
much more rapidly than ever since a Lodge
was first instituted in Deer Lodge
