THE HATTA sQUABBLE.

The Hatta company have suspended
all operations indefinitely. The pumps
have been drawn and all the workmen
discharged The reason for such action
owing to the fact that the company
could not raise funds on the stock to
purchase the necessary machinery.
All the stockholders except VIM. Funk
we're willing to advance money to pro-
ceed with the development work, but
VT. Funk positively refuses to assist,
and as he is in possession of several
thousand shares, the other stockholders
do not propose to spend their money
and let Mr.. Funk reap the benefits
therefrom, and until he sees fit to act
reasonable the property will remain un.
explored.

The Cotton Combination.

The Cottons reappeared at Morse's
opera house last Saturday night and
produced to packed house the charm
ine melo-drama, "Irma, the Waif." in
which the talent of the company was
presented in manner that kept the en-
tire audience in an uproar of laughter
from the beginning to the end. Ben is
given good opportunity in this play to
exercise his ability as a niger, and If all
Africa were produced, a better or more
comical character could hardly be found.
Sunday night they produced "Jessica;
or. Nobody's Claim" to smaller but
appreciative audience.
They presented the ''Wilddower'
Monday night, in which Idalene was
given an opportunity to display her tai
ent with the banjo and songs in which
she excels, and she was repeatedly called
back by the unceasing applause from the
audience.
The company left for Deer Lodge last
Tuesday morning. whore they played on
the 4th and 5th.

incorporation.

Frank D. Brown informs us that in a
few days he will be out with paper for
the signatures of those citizens who are
anxious for Incorporation, and it is hoped
that he will meet with unbounded sue
cess. We are glad to see Mr.. Brown
starting the ball rolling in this matter
again, and if anyone could make sue
cess of it he will, as he is unquestionab]y
the best rustler in the town and one of
the best and most enterprising citizens
that We have Now If every true citizen
will do his duty there seems to be no
reason why it should fail this time, and
it must not. Some of our people are of
the opinion that it would be an expen-
sive luxury to live in an incorporated
place, but it will cost but little if any
more than it does at present and it will
have the effect of greatly improving the
place, socially, financially, morally, and in
every other particular.

A RICH DISCOVERY,

RI. Rombauer was in from Boulder
district this week and informed us that
he has recently discovered rich lead Of
ore about two miles above the Bradley
claim. The vein extends on both sides
of / oulder creek and is about four feet
5s;;;;5,e, carrying gold and silver and some
lead. In character it greatly resembles
the ore of the Anaconda. Mr.. Rombaue1
has been in search of this lead at diffe-
rent times for the past two or three
years and has at last reaped his reward
He is now sinking shaft on the vein
and is taking out some fine looking ore

IRON MOUNTAIN.

J.K. Pardee came III from the Iron
Mountain last Sunday and reports salts
faction with the outlook at the mines In
that district. The force of men has been
increased and ore is being taken out in
enormous quantities. In the course of
very few months dividend will be de-
clared. The stock is now on the market
and is quoted at 60 cents, which seems
low rate on such valuable property.

The Calico Ball.

Seldom have we looked upon a more
jolly and appreciative assemblage than
that which congregated in Morse's hall
last Friday night to trip the light fan
tastic toe at the calico ball given by the
Philipsburg orchestra. Although there
we're but sixteen couples present they
seemed to be the right material to make
one feel that life is worth living for.
Only few Of the ladies were attired in
calico, and most all the gentlemen forgot
to decorate their Threats in the proper
manner for calico hop. This, however,
did not interfere with the evenings
pleasure, and when Home, Sweet Home
was finally rendered by the orchestra the
party dispersed. all with feeling of in
tense satisfaction with the night s
pastime. The music was unusually
good.

To Flune Camp Creek.

At the last meeting of the board of
county commissioners they apportioned
the necessary funds for the improvement
of that part of Camp creek which passes
through Philipsburg and is now in a
most filthy condition. They recommend
that the course of the stream be changed
and run through tiume in the center of
the alley south of Broadway, the old
passage way to be filed in. AL matter
that goes into the stream will then have
to be conducted to 1t through pipes laid
under ground. This is a most needful
improvement to the town and the work
should be commenced at once. After
this work is completed there will be no
reason why the town should not be kept
in clean and healthy condition.
