The Water Works Assessment Calls Out
Hot Words In The Council.
The city council held regular
meeting last Tuesday evening. Mayor
Dickinson, Aids. Bager, Burmeister
and Mead and Recorder Everett be-
ing present. About the only matter
of interest that came up, occurred
when Messrs. George and Bissell, rep
resenting about 40 or SO citizens as
sessed for water frontage tax, APP
peared. Mr.. George stated that it was
a hardship to pay the tax all in one
year, and he wanted to learn whether
a new assessment could be made and
the amount spread over two or three
years. Mayor Dickinson gently hint
ed that there was no law to allow one
council to review the acts of a proceed
ing council. The aldermen all seemed
disposed to spread the assessment per
request, but they were quite certain
that they could not do it.
I'VE wanted an individual express
sion from each member of the council
on the subject" said Mr.. Bissell.
"That is entirely unanswerable," re-
torted the Mayor, sharply. can at
tempt to lobby the council without a
resolution before it is improper and
will not be permitted"
"Well," remarked Mr.. George, ''if
nothing can be done towards granting
our request, we will refuse to pay our
taxes-until we are compelled to pay
them"
eff the court declares this assess
ment void, our new assessment will be
according to law. e., for the full
amount of the expenditure before
each piece of property-just double
what the present assessment is
Messrs. George and Bissell retired,
and Aid, Bager wanted an ordinance
passed compelling persons having
trees branching over streets, to trim
the trees. He was informed that the
street commissioner had that power
and the matter was dropped.
The question of new sidewalks came
up, through AID. Mead making a
"kick" for an eight foot walk in front
OF John Lauterbach's lot on Third
street. It was then remarked that two
miles of new sidewalk should be con-
structed or repaired this summer, and
the Council was of one mind. This
will take 6O,OOO..feet of lumber.

DEATH OF ENE McCLINTOCK.

Prominent Citizen Quietly Joins the
Great Majority.
E. D. cClintock, who had been ill
for some time, with pneumonia, died
last Thursday about noon. Enc was
taken with chill on the Thursday
evening previous, for which medical
aid was summoned. The chill rapid
ly ran into pneumonia, and the dis
ease progressed slowly, until on
Wednesday, it became severe, and re-
suited in his death on Thursday noon.
The wife and family, four boys, and
relatives were present at the time that
Enc breathed his last.
The funeral occurred from the fam
lily residence on Wyoming street Sun
day afternoon, under the auspices of
the local lodge of Odd Fellows, of
which Enc was member. The lodge
was assisted by Odd Fellows from
Renville county, and the right of way
was given to three companies of the
local fire department, Enc having
been member of Hook and Ladder
No. l. Following the chief and his
assistant came Chas. Mead carving
Ene's helmet and belt on tray heav-
lily draped. The funeral ceremony
was that solemn and impressive one
of the Episcopal church. Rev. Henry
Beer officiating. The residence was
filled to overfowing.and 500 acquaint'
ances were compelled to wait on the
outside. The procession that escorted
and followed the remains to the GENE
terry was one of the largest ever seen
here. At the cemetery the burial GER
emory of the Odd Fellows was con-
Quoted, and to farewell song the re-
mains of the late E. D. McClintock
were lowered Ito their last resting
place.
Enoch D. McCintock was born in
Green Lake county, Wis.,, 3S years
ago. His father was a farmer, and
Enc was one of family of five boys
and three girls. Enc worked more or
less on the farm in his youth, and
during that time he acquired a fair
common school education. In 1875
he was married to Wilhelmina Eliza
beth, daughter..of Mr.. and Mrs. H. D..
Everett, and four years later left the
Badger State to take up his home in
Redwood Falls. E He was in the ma
chine business for number of years,
and travelled for the Mccormick Har-
vesting Co. until his health com.
menced to fail him. Later on he
turned his attention to the livery bus
iuess, and this pursuit he followed
off and on up to his death, having
sold out his stable week or two be-
fore he died. He leaves wife and
four children, all boys, the oldest
fourteen years and the youngest about

three years old. The deceased carried
$500 life insurance in the N. b. As
ISOLATION, of Minneapolis, on Odd
Fellows organization. &
Enc was always pleasant and gem
ial and his countenance will be missed
by large circle of friends and ac-
quaintances.
To the many friends who so tender
" ministered to the wants of our late
deceased husband aud father during
his brief illness, and to the members
of the LOOT. and Fire Department,
who performed the last sad rites, we
tender our heartfelt thanks.

A BURNING TRESTLE
Prevents An Ohio River Train
From Entering the City,
THE FIRE PARTIALLY DESTROYS
The Boggs' RIM Trcstle Below the
City on the Ohio River RoRd-The
Wheeling Department Called to the
Scene aud Extinguishes tho Dan
gerous Fire-rHssenGers Brought
Up On the Electric Cars Last Night,

Last evening, from some cause I'M
known, the rubbish beneath the big
trestle Of the Ohio River railroad across
Boggs run, below the city, caught fire,
and though not noticed or thought So
sious at first, soon assumed greater pro-
portions and the flames lickedup around
the frame work in most threatening
manner and finally communicated to
the trestle itself. About this time Ohio
River passenger train from Huntington,
No. s, which was late, came along, but
on account OF the tire was una
Bile to cross the burning wood
work, The train remained standing
at the lower end OF tho trestle for some
time while the train hands and others
endeayored To extiRguish the fire,
which then looked as though it would
entirely burn the trestle, but without
much success, us their facilities were
limited. Finally teelephone call was
sent to the Wheeling lire department,
and Wheeling No. 4 engine was ordered
down, and about II o'clock last night
had the fire under ControIi ut midnight
it was entirely out.
The passengers on tho train were
transferred up to town on the electric
cars during the evening and theirbag-
gage was brought up in wagons. The
loss caused by damage to the trestle
could not be- ascerIained last night,
The fro is supposed to have been
started by sparks from passing loco
motive.
after tho fire had been put out it was
decided to bring the passenger train'up
over the trestie, as it was still safe and
sound. This was done without disas'
trous consequences.

THE AMA1GAMArnD SCALE.
"A Reduction of Thirty Per Cent Agree
on mt BGllnlrC.

"A Reduction OF Thirty Per Cent Agreed
omit BOllaIrG.
Though not finally settled, it is
understood that the AmaIgamated COM
mittee and the BelIaire nail works
have agreed upon the scale OF wages
for the ensuing year, but the confer
ence continued yesterday afternoon as
to replacing some men who have been
working by tho ton to day pay. 1t is
reliably stated that the cut in wages
agreed upon amounts to thirty per cent
on all tho tonnage men. They had Il
fifteen per cent cut last year and have
now agreed to further reduction Of
thirty per cent.
The amalgamated committee Is com.
posed OF considerable men and in their
conference they were confronted with
the scale in force at other mills, where
even greater reduction was made.
Thus there was no alternative Other
members OF that association had agreed
to big reductions and the management
OF the Bellaire Nail Works only asked
to be put on an equitable basis with
their competitors. Tho question Of
continuing some men by the day or ton
Is not OF such serious consequence that
it will interfere with starting the steel
works, and it is probable the plant will
be in operation next week.
The committee representing tho
workers did the very best thing trey
could do, but the chairman Of that
committee left the conference on
Wednesday and refused to go back the
other six members continued it. Tho
result does not give universal satisfAc-
ton, but mono OF the wage questions
are ever settled with universal favor.

Every reader of the AGRICULTURIsT is
familiar with the facts regarding the get
ting up and forwarding Of the cargo of
oranges to London last fall by the S. s.
Ethelwold The AGRICULTURIsT did all it
could to encourage the enterprise as we
believed that it would be a great help to
the orange growers of Florida if an out
let could be made that would take ten or
twenty thousand boxes of our fruit per
month at prices that would pay the
growers. We admired Mr.. GOOdsell for
the enterprise and the push which he ex-
hibited and the confidence he had to put
the amount # money he did into the un-
dertaking Everything was made to
appear that Mr.. GOodSell was our bene-
factor. AS all know, we were chosen by
the growers to represent them and to go
as supercargo of the Ethelwold. When
we reached London our enthusiasm for
Mr. Goodsell's S undertaking was none the
less abated until we became aware that
the enterprise but that he was using the
capital of Messrs. J. & B. Shaw, yet get
ting all the praise for his "enterprise, -
and Messrs. Shaw's name, to whom it
was all indebted, not even being men
toned. We looked on this at first as
very poor taste on Mr.. Goodsell's part
and did not show very high apprecia-
tion on his part of the confidence that
Messrs Shaw had in placing that sum
of money at his disposal. Before
leaving this side we were under the
impression that every shipper had re-
ceived an advance of rs cents per box for
his fruit In conversation with Mr.
Shaw in London we were still led to believe
that this was the case. On our return,
however, we found that there were quite
a number who had not received the ad-
vance We then wrote to England Tor
further information and received the
following letter:

Mr.. John G.. Barron commenced bust

cligibly located at No. s, Third street
south.
Mr.. Barron is a practical and expert
cnced manufacturing jcwclcr and dia-
mond setter. lie keeps one assistant
who is an expert watch maker and re-
pairer. Watch repairing is therefore an
important branch of the business. The
leading specially, however, is the man
uiacturc of jewclry, badges, and other
gold and silver articles to order. Where
designs are furnished they will be mi
nutely followed. When patrons are UNI
decided as to patterns, original, or stock,
designs will be furnished without extra
charge. An important speciality also i
the making over of old kcepsakes. In
doing this line of work the old gold OF
silver is in every instance used. Almost
every M has some souvenir in gold or
silver that is out of style and ~valulcss
for use. All such should so to Mr.. John
G.. Barron and have their old keepsakes
made over into something that a be
used and enjoyed.
We should not omit to mention that
Mr.. Barron is an expert diamond and
sapphire setter. He also receives or
dcrs for lapidary work which he has
done in the east. The measure of sue
cess he has attained in Great Falls has
been due TO real merit in workman
ship and IN the fact that Mr.. Barron is Il
courteous and agreeable gentleman to
meet and do business with. Mail orders
entrusted to his care will be aCknowl-
edged by return post, and receive
prompt attention. Communications

house, containing 10000 feet OF floor
space is also required for duplicate stock.
Competent diapers and carpet layers
are constantly in employ and this firm
can furnish a house in the best modern
style throughout at the briefest notice.
The wholesale department Of this
house brings a considerable trade to
Great Falls that would, but for the large
stock carried by A. p. Curtin & Co., go
to other cities.
Mr.. ID. r. Edwards was formerly for a
number of years with A. p. Curtin at
Helena. lie has had an extensive ex-
p%erience in the furniture trade. He is
we'll and favorably known throughout
the state and is much esteemed in Great
Falls business circles and as an enter
prising citizen. While the house here
and at Helena each buys exclusively
for itself they nevertheless do act to-
gether. thereby getting the discounts
given by manufacturers to large orders
and cash purchasers in solid a lots.
In view of this fact it may with a rea-
sonablc certainty be claimed that A. p.
Curtin q Co., of Great Falls a sell as
cheaply and give as favorable terms as
any other furniture house in the north
west.
