THE CLUB.
A Successful and Enjoyable Dramatic
and Social Entertainment.

Despite the bad weather the first dra
matte entertainment of the ITALIA ORA
matte club given at Keefe hall last even
ing proved to be highly successful aud en-
joyAb!e.
The play was the German comedy,
Paul. the Messenger. Mr.. Herman Well
nitz took the leading pat. HIS persona
ton OF the drunken man was a very
creditable piece of acting. Mr.. Wellnitz
has had considerable experience on the
stage and is the equal in comedy to many
professionals Mr.. Ed. Hoffman as a
German magistrate made a decided hit,
and the character, in costume and imper
sonation, was well sustained. Martin
Brother Was a typical German police
man.
Following the play Messrs II. WelInitz
and Fred Hoffman rendered the vocal
duet "Stradella."
Pro-. Hutchinson gave a violin solo
which was heartily encored.
One of the most enjoyable features Of
the evenings entertainment was.the reel
tation by Miss Sylvia AdamsIy of Will
Cartoons poem, The Death Bridge of
the Tay." Miss Adamsky's rendition of
the selection was a cultivated and dra-
matte effort of the highest order. Her
natural gifts have been supplemented by
careful training and combine to make her
a decidedly successful recitationist.
Dancing followed the dramatic and lit,
erarye exercises and closed a very pleasant
evening entertainment. The music was
furnished by the Thalia club orchestra.
1t is the intention of the club, OF which
MIR. A. Adamsky is president, and Mr.. II.
Wellnitz stage manager, to give a series
of dramatic entertainments similar to that
presented last evening.

INCENDIARY ORIGIN.
Cinnamon not to Blame Tor the Fire at
Rock Springs.
The Nine has Been Sealed in Hope Of
SmOthering the Flames.


Special Dispatch to The Leader.
Rock SPRINGS. WYo., april pa
vigorous and determined fight against the
fire in No. 4 mine was kept up until
about noon today, when all hopes of ex
tinguishing the flames with the appliances
at hand was abandoned. Smothering
was decided upon and all entrances are
now being sealed with a view to keeping
air from the fire. This means that the
mine will be closed for three or four
months. If there is fire when it Is again
opened the miGe will be flooded. If this
is necessary it will not produce any coal
until next season.
The men thrown out of employment by
the fire will be given places 10 No. 7,
from which no coal has been shipped for
several months. 1t will now be worked
to its full capacity to fill the company's
contract with the Anaconda smelters.
No deaths have occurred so far. Dave
Thomas and Ed. Evans were badly
burned about the face and hands. Four
teen others were injured. All are doing
nicely.
1t is now rumored that the fire origin
was i%ncendiary. 1t was certainly not
started by the carelessness Of Chinese as
at first reported. No Cinnamon we're
working within a quarter of a mile OF
where the FIRE broke out.
All the mules were brought out by the
rescuing party which went down yester
day afternoon.

SCOPE OF THE SHOPS.
Nebraska Division Engines now on
the Stocks Here.
Plans for Water System Extension
and Furnishing the layatory.
Work on Car Building and Paint
Shops Will Begin in a Month.


1t is a somewhat significant fact
that two Nebraska division locomotives
are on the stocks in the new machine
shop here. They are being furnished
with steam heating appliances Others
VIII be similarly equipped. They are the
new high speed engines IN the fast mail
service. Formerly all work OF this char
actar was sent to Omaha and Grand Isl
and. Only engines damaged on the hill
were brought to this place for repairs.
Now the Cheyenne shops will do running
repairs and rebuild locomotives for nearly
every district of the Wyoming and Ne
braska divisions as well as the Cheyenne
& Northern.
MOVING.
Superintendent Munro SAID Yesterday
that he expected to have all machinery
out of the old and into the new shop be-
fore the week expired. The old shop is
to be tenanted bv the boiler makers. 1t
will be given a cinder floor and furnished
especially for this work. The present
boiler shop will be used by the copper
workers exclusively.
The car repaIrers will move into the
new shop east of the blacksmith shop
next week.
H LAVAToRY.
Construction Engineer Butler has re-
ceiyed the plans for furnishing the lava
tory off from the machine shop boiler
room. 1t will be a modern convenience
supplied with hot and cold water. A
large mou of plumbing will be re
quired and will be undertaken by the ma
chInery department here.
SHOP WATER SYSTEM.
NJ. Butler had at his office yesterday
something else new in the shape of
drawings for the extension of the shop
plant water sy stem to the car building
and paint shops to be erected this season
near the car repair shop. There will be
1900 feet OF six inch and $50 feet of four
inch pipe, seven outside fire hydrants and
fifteen plu gs inside.
Most of the pipe will be laid outside by
Z. S. Cook of Cheyenne, who has a rate
contract for this work. The interior pip
ing will be let with the building con
tracts.
IN A MONTH.
The fact that water extension plans
have been received indicates clearly that
building plans will soon follow. The
LEADER is told by an official of the con-
struction department that it is intended
to commence work on the car building
aud paint shops before the end of May
and that the plans will be sent out inside
OF three weeks.

There will be two novel entertainments
at the opera house next week, when on
Sunday and Tuesday evenings DIR. j. C..
Harrison lectures to his own sex. Few
men who have devoted q life to special
ties have gained such wide celebrity as he,
or have attained greater eminence upon
the lecture platform. In 1881 he sailed
from San Francisco and has but recently
completed a tour of the world. Several
years have been spent in the hospitals of
Austria, France and England, in scientific
research. In Paris he had prepared a
large number of dissolving views taken
from cases under his treatment in the
various hospitals, which he will use to
illustrate his address.

The monster iron crusher for the coal
mines was received last Sunday. This is
the only machine OF the kind in the
world, No other soft coal is as hard as
the Newcastle article. and the necessity
of a machine to crush Jumps of soft
coal would be treated as an absurity by
the coal men. But it is necessary, and
the result will be that the coal will re
tain the valuable element of hardness
and yet be broken into Jumps of con
v%enieut and regular size. The machine
consists of a monster iron wheel with
steel teeth revolving upon a steel shaft,
the coal passing under it upon an iron
plate and being broken by the teeth OF
the wheel, which will r~evolve rapidly.
The screens below will then separate the
grades.

THURSDAY. APRIL "a. 1890.
Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1890-05-02

AN old time friend of the Fargo Argus,
writing from Washington, has something
pleasant to say of Judge Caldwell who
has just closed his first term of the
United States circuit court for North
Dakota in Bismarck:
My old friend Judge Caldwell will be-
with you soon. Clay is one of Gods peO-
pie, as was his father before him. | want
you to see the judge and give him my kind
est regards. | do not think that Iowa, or
any other state, ever produced a brighter
young man than he. Two reasons sent
him from Iowa. The one because all were
proud of him and wanted to serve him, and
the other was, no one there in power or
hoped to be in power who did not prefer to
have him in Office in Arkansas, to give him
this place, or nance in Iowa. When Clay
was in the Iowa legislature, a clever, edu-
Gated and honest dude of the scientific class
took it into his head that he could benefit
the state and immortalize himself to have
a commission appointed to examine the
different soils the state to determine the
character OF plants for the sections. The
doctor was plausible and interested the
state officials and everybody else as it
seemed in favor of the bill, and when it
was put on its passage, every vote down to
Clay'S was a "yea" vote, when Clay got up
n in a thirty minute speech described
the different bugs that were to be exam
lned. | never heard such sarcasm in my
life. The hOuse was cODvulsed in laughter
and when he voted 'no," every vote follow
ing was a mo" vote. 1t was the only
speech l ever heard. that transferred q
united affirmative legislature to a unani-
NOUS negative body. He effectually pricked
the bubble.

wanted the salary of the snrveyOr general
increased from 81 1900 tn $2,5OO and amount
for clerks from 5000 to $1,000. Hermann
pleaded with his fellow members of con-
gress to give his state justice in this mat
ter, but it was 10 use-the fates were
against him. Neither Carter of Montana
nor Wilson of Washington made any fight
for increase in their states, but it was 0D-
served that the bill provided that the sur
veyOr general in Montana was down for
S2,50O and clerk hire 5000, while WASH
ingtOn's surveyor. general draws 1880 and
$500 for clerk hire. Both of these men
had got in their work with the
appropriation committee, and knew
that a fight would make no diff
ference. The assault stirred up Cannon,
of the appropriation committee. He said
that the west had already been given $780,
600 for examination of surveys, that was
money that would do some good; that the
surveyor general and his clerks would do
as good. work with salaries as fixed in the
bill as well as for the increase asked. The
western men, while they did not get all
they wanted, made quitela strong fight.
Five hours were consumed tonight in
getting together a quorum to vote on the
bill. On ordering the previous question no
quorum voted, and the speaker counted
Abbot. Breckenridge of Kentucky, De Ha-
ven, Enloe and Goodnight as present and
voting, and declared the previous question
ordered.

For the information of the Sioux
Falls Press and without any desire to
institute invidious comparisons" the
TRIBUNE desires to say that the state
ment that the North Dakota bonds sold
for a shade better, or at least fully equal
to South Dakota, was made upon the
authority of the gentleman who pur-
chased the South Dakota bonds and who
knows whereof he speaks. The North
Dakota bonds run but fifteen years as
against twenty for South Dakota. Then
there was two months accrued interest
on the South Dakota bonds; then there
is the advantage to North Dakota Of hav-
ing the use of the large cash premium at
once. One bidder offered, if North Da-
kots would change the bonds from a 41%I
to 81 per cent. fiat, to take them and
pay par. The fact is the bonds Of the
two Dakotas sold so well and at so nearly
the same rate it's like splitting hairs to
figure the difference.

The new county board are applying
the pruning knife in great shape and
seem to have grasped the idea that the
taxpayers want economy. They have
held only q few meetings, but business
seemed 80 dull around the county build
ings somehow the commissioners got it
into their heads that the interests of tho
county wouldn't suffer if the stipend of
the Deputies wal cut off and the princi-
pals allowed to become acquainted with
the duties of their offices. A resolution
was therefore passed to the effect that
after May LIST the jailor could perform all
the ~ianitor duties required and thus save
fifty or sixty dollars a mouth; also that
the county would not be held RESPONSE
BILE for the salaries of deputies in the Of
fees Of treasurer and auditor, making a
saving all around Of something like 5000
a month. OF cours the taxpayers will
endorse this stroke Of economy, but it
does seem: q little tough to force the
county officials to do their own work.
It is such an innovation on the custom.

THE Sioux Indian powwow advertised
to come off last Sunday somewhere on
"Secha," or Bad river, turned out to be
quite a success. Besides the 200 In
dams present, including all the promi-
nent chiefs of the Sioux Nation and sew
eral hundred whites, Col. Lounsberry,
the special agent of the interior depart
ment, and the register of the land office
were there as invited guests to give in
formation and hear complaints. The In
dams called attention to broken promises
and said that they would have no more
to do with the whites unless their old
promises we're made good. John Grass
made a long speech and confirmed bis
former wish that Indians take up lands
and live like white folks. Chief Big
Foot tried to create a division and break
up the meeting by driving around and
firing guns in the air, but the boiling
chief and his band we're gathered in by
aid Of the Indian police and order was
restored. A long and interesting talk
ensued and late in the night, when the
powwow broke up, 1t was fully decided
by the red men that they would take up
land and become white farmers, instead
of going back to the reservation, or per-
haps what would be worse, settle in In
organized counties and after the n
of North Dakota justice, be taxed and
not voted.

The other day the Larimore Pioneer
exposed some fraudulent proceedings on
the part of Jim Matthews, who will be
remembered as one of the Grand Forks
members of the constitutional convention,
in relation to the lease of school lands
told about how he buIldozed the farmers
in the vicinity and kept them away from
the auotion-how he leased 'em at his
own figure, from ST. to 1875 per quarter,
and then went back and re-let them to
the farmers for $50 or so each. Now
comes the same paper with the announce
ment that one George Purcell has given
Jim q genuine patriotic black eye with
red, white and blue streaks in it. Verify
the way of the transgressor is hard.
