SIX O'CLOCK TONIGHT
That Hour Nay be 0minous for q Good
Many People.
Differences About Switching
Charges Involving the Railroad
Company and the Shelter
That May Tie Us All Up.

AT O o'clock this afternoon, IL plans
which now appear 10 he pretty well
settled are carried out, the Montana
Union railroad will stop the delivery Of
ore To the smelling works from the yard
in this city. A controversy between the
railroad company and the works, involv-
ing certain switching charges, has been
going on for several weeks. The CON-
pany pays 40 cents n ton on ore from
Butte. IL is not proposed To advance this
rate. but General Manager Baldwin de-
mands that the smelling company assume
practically all the expense OF switching
cars when they reach the Anaconda yard.
A bill amounting to something more
thar $1,000 for the work during n
few days in June. was presented ut
the company's Office and payment
demanded. This demand was not
met. II is reported that the owners OF the
smelling works will not enter i'm the ar
passed yesterday indicates that after to-
day the Montana Union will not haul ore
until its demands are complied with.
The outlook now Is that all the ore
hauled from Butte will stand I'm an idle
yard after his evening. The smelling
company has no facilities Tor distributing
il. the proposed charges Will not be paid
and things will come 10 n halt. IL was
said on the street last evening that, at the
works, arrangements are progressing Tor
n general suspension Of business, SO that,
unless a change is soon brought
about, the establishment across the
creek will he dead, and this will involve
an interruption at the mines in Butte, as
the amount of ore that can be carried In
the yards is not large.
The proposed switching charge is one
which il ID said, is not levied on any com
pany in Butte OF at any of the great smell
tiers in Colorado. There has been no par
ticular dispute v G the Accent rate for
hauling ore 20 this city, i'm fact, II is said
hat Mr.. Baldwin suggested that an agree
ment on his offer on switching charges
might very probably lead to a change in
the charge IN hauling ore that would be
satisfactory To the company.
Ii is claimed in behalf of the railroad
company that il is losing money in spite OF
its large business. Representatives OF the
Anaconda company say in reply that
this is not the fanlt of the business con-
Quoted with the works here and the
mines in Butte, but that il is owing To
other causes, including the small pro
rata shares of earnings credited to the
Montana Union by the Northern Pacific
and the Union Pacific, and, AS well, to
the large amount of extra expense in
volved in keeping up the Montana Union
as a separate and distinct establishment.
Ii is not known whether, in cast the
smelters close, the building operations
now progressing ut the works will be in
terrupted. Al a late hour last night II
was learned that no change i'm he situa-
ton had taken place, and that IL the pro-
posed switching charges are not met, the
services of the Montana Union in that
direction would cease tonight.

e Jordan desires that persons i'm pos
session of keys to the fire alarm boxes
should exercise a little judgment in using
them. As soon as this mornings fire was
discovered the policemen on that beat
turned an alarm from the nearest box,
No. AZ, located at the corner of Galena
and Wyoming streets. In a few moments
afterward another alarm came dancing
into the station from box No. 81. at the
corner of Main and Park streets.
Fortunately the hose company had
already started to answer the
first alarm, otherwise some confusion and
possible delay might have resulted.
People hould remember that an alarm
sent in from one box sounds only the
number of that box, and It is taken for
granted by the men on duty at the station
that the fire is located i'm the ~neighbor-
hood of that box. A box at the orner OF
Main and Granite streets should not he
used 10 sound an alarm i'm the lower
end of the city, for the department is not
supposed TO hunt for the fire, but to drive
at once to the locality of the box from
which the alarm was sounded. Always
send an alarm from the box nearest to a
fire and not from one located in another
part of the city. BY doing this, time and
annoyance will be spared the flremen and
their services rendered more efficient.

SOME UNTOLD HORRORS
Discoveries Made BY the Health 0fhcers
In Butte Restaurants.
Sinking and Diseased Meat, Decay.
Ing Food and Dirty Premises En-
Countered In Places tn at Look
Clean on the Outside.

BY the Standards Special Wire.
BUTTE, July E.-Untold horrors were
revealed 10 Sanitary Policeman Pinkham
n Health Officer Robarts to-day during
part OF their inspection of Butte's res
taurants, hotels and butcher shops. Some
of the look well enough i'm
front, but the health officers went to the
rear and took particular notice Of the
kitchens and back yards. In one of the
most prominent restaurants, great piles Of
dirt, rubbish and food, rapidly decaying,
were found, showed under The kitchen
tables.
In some of the kitchens the filth was in
describable. The meat in many cases
was unfit to be eaten and would be no
temptation to a dog.
The officers found the Chinese restaur-
ants as a rule to be decidedly the clean
est. Only n of them proved bad enough
to necessitate action on the part of the
officers. The restaurants which were
found objectionable were notified that
they must have everything cleaned up by
tomorrow, or they must take the conse-
quences.
One butcher shop was found which is a
disgrace to civilization. IL Is well pat
ronized, too. Much of the meat was in
bad condition. Twenty-Five Of thirty
pounds OF meat were cut and piled up, all
fiy-blown, but handed out To customers
right along. From the examination the
officers were convinced that some Of the
mutton was from diseased sheep, but this
was ~strenuously denied. Some OF the meat
was ordered thrown away. The pelts were
thrown out carelessly in the back OF the
shop.
The officers found that the ~ofrenses at
the fruit stands and groceries which had
been visited yesterday had beef removed
IN largo eNfant most nf
those notified showing a desire to clean
up things.
The health department find that the
work of cleaning Butte will prove a
mightier task than they had any concep-
ton of. For years the filth has been pill
ing up in alleys INT back yards, and until
now there has been no effort TO remove
the accumulation. The task is appalling
and Hercules would indeed admit that in
the Augean stables he had a snap conn
pared with that which presents itself TO
b Butte health department.

Dispositions.
The newspaper puff, says Bill Nye,
is something that makes men feel bad
if they don't get it. The groundwork
of the ordinary newspaper puff con-
sists of a moral character and good
bank account. Writing newspaper
puffs is like mixing sherry cobblers
and mint juleps all through the sum-
mer months for customers and quench.
ing your own thirst with rain water.
Sometimes a man is looking for puff
and don I get it, then he says the pa
per is going down hill, and that it is
IN the hands of a monopoly, and he
would stop stop su bscribing if lie did
not have to pay his bill first. Writ
ing a newspaper puff is like taking a
photograph of a homely baby. II the
photograph does not represent the
child with wings and halos and harps,
it shows that the artist does not un-
derstand his business. So il is with
the newspaper puff if the pulled does
not stand out like bold and fearless
exponent of truth and morality, il
shows that the puffer does not under
stand human nature. II is more fun
see q man read puff about himself
than to see man slip on an orange
peel. The narrow. minded man reads
it over seven or eight times and then
goes around to the different places
where the paper is taken and steals
what he can. The kind. hearted fam
ily man goes home and reads it TO his
wife, aud then pays up his bill on the
paper. The successful business man
who advertisos aud makes money,
starts Immediately to find the news
paper man, and speaks word of
grateful acknowledgement and en-
couragement. Then the two men start
out of the sanctum and walk thought
fully down the street together, and
the successful business man takes
sugar in his, and they both eat Glove
or two; and life is sweeter and peace
settles down like turtle dove in our
hearts. and after a while lamp posts
get more plentiful and everybody
seems more 0: less intoxicated, but
the hearts of these two men are fixed
with nameless JOY, because they
know just where to stop and not make
themselves ridiculous.

SELIG MAN.
The Purcell Series Of MIines--Optm.
ton OF Miners.

ton OF Miners.
In view of the proposed sale of the
mill plant at Seligman, we presume
no further efforts will be made to de-
velop the Purcell series of mines un-
less they change hands. It would be
a matter of regret should the property
remain idle after so much money has
been spent upon it. The vein of the
Purcell mines can be definitely traced
for miles, and if developed in sys-
tematic maner, the rich chutes of
ere be followed and the poorer gangue
be left in place to hold up the ground,
there is little doubt but the mines can
be made tn pay. This is the opinion
of the better class of miners who have
worked in various places on the vein.
The big tunnel at the concentrator
level is already in 900 feet, and has
only 1900 feet further to run to
tap the vein 1870 feet deep. There
are burleighs, compressors and all
other necessary equlpme nts on the
ground, and should the capital neces-
sary to complete the work be applied
for that purpose, there are no visible
reasons why the mines should not
pay well. The ground in the tunnel
is favorable for driving and will prob
ably not cost TO exceed eight dollars
per foot to run it. There is full
water supply at Seligman for all rea-
sonable purposes, and this can no
doubt be greatly increased by driving
tunnel through the prophyry under
the bed of the southerly branch of the
canyon, which, on account of the easy
working nature of the ground, can be
speedily done at com paratively trif1ing
cost. Eureka Sentinel.
