FIe Norfolk Il Western.

A we'll informed gentleman says
that it is only a question of time, and
of very little time, he believes, when
the Norfolk & Western railway will
build from Durham to Raleigh, and
the Atlantic Coast Line from Spring
hope to Raleigh. Why the latter road
has for all this length of time failed to
make the connection is something that
people cannot understand. Another
piece of railway construction which
may be put down as certainty is that
of the line from Ridgeway to Rich.

WAS aINGToN, April 23.-One of
the most important changes in ord
nance is that authorized yesterday by
Commodore Folger, the naval chief OF
ordnance, in applying the Dashiell
type of rapid fire mechanism to naval
6 inch breech loading revolvers. The
adoption of this mechanism was justi-
fed by the admiral performance of the
device when it was recently tested.
The application of the mechanism to
the inch gun increases the etficienc,
of that weapon materially. It is the
invention Of Ensign Dashicll of the
navy. The conversion Of the six inch
gun into the rapid fire type places the
ordnance of the American navy
slightly in advance Of most naval pow
ers, 50 far as rapid fire guns 90.

a speech of welcome was given by
Attorney A. J. Shores, of Great

Helena, United States District At

role, 1t was a highly interesting
display of theatrical art and was

ing is commodious, and conveniently
arranged, and IS a monument both to

erection was dedicated, and it will
stand as a lasting tribute to the
memory of the Great Falls Opera
Company.

Good Results.

The Benton mines have received
returns from their car of ore shipped
to Helena. The results are an eye
opener for many. old miners, who
have never visited this place, and
must result in good. The a con
sisted of three grades of ore and was
sent for the purpose of testing it's
merits. The returns from the Hell
ena smelter will almost be question
ed by many, but they can be con-
frmed by making inquiries in the
proper place. The first class ore
averaged over $500 per ton, the
second class about $500, whilst the
tale goes about sl65. Who will
say that there are not paying mines
in Neihart. This property has a
great quantity of ore on the dump
and in sight, besides a full treasury.
They will erect a hoist on the
ground in the spring when sinking
will be begun.

car of high grade ore and expects to run
as we'll as any shipment that has been
made from the camp. Mr.. Sykes reports
that the mines are being energetically
developed, no special strikes being made,
but the leads showing all anticipated
improvement as depth is reached.
Large quantities of ore are being accu

perty. MI. Williams has by industry
and economy accumulated quite a nice
sum which he expects to expenl in the
development of his new purchase. The
company is engaged in running a tunnel

beneath the surface. They are now in
$50 feet and work is progressing nicely

Stricken From The Calendar.

Peter Baum, attorney for the Bar
NUNS during their recent trial in the
United States court at Helena, receiv-
ed a telegram from the cleark of that
court saying that the case against Mrs.
Barnum had been striker from the
calendar for the term. The case
against the sorely tried lady was to
have been called up again this term
and set for trial..
AS it has been striker from the
calendar there are many who think it
is not likely to be called up at another
term of court. This action on the
part of the prosecuting attorney re-
leases Mrs. Barnum's attorneys and
no doubt practically ends one of the
most sensational cases tried in Mont
ana in a number of years.-Great
