LEADvILLE, Colo, Aug 4.-Trouble oc-
Cured at the Arkansas Valley smelter
when the company announced reduction
of 10 per cent. in all wages, to take effect
at once. About forty men remained work
ing, but the strikers got together and drove
the men who were working out of the
smelter. Quite sorimmage ensued, stones
and clubs being generally used, but no one
is reported seriously injured, although sew
eral were badly pounded up. The plant
will be shut down for the present. The
captain of the Leadville militia has asked
the adjutant general at Denver for arms

month. 1t is an i'm
portant meeting and under an old established
rule the only one at which bills can be paid,
so it is really the forerunner of pay day for
the people who perform work for the borough
Councilmen TO meet is sore disappointment
to these people,
Last night the Councilmen were very tardy
and the hour fixed for the opening, 1880
o'clock, found none of them present At a
few minutes before 8 o'clock some of them
walked in and a couple finding that there was
not a quorum present and that President
Betteridge was not there, walked out again
The Councilmen who visited the chamber
during the evening were Messrs. James
Coakley, Finney, Dougherty, Gallagher, Van
Dusen, Holman and MCGUIRE but the coming
and going made it impossible to get eight in
the foom at one time for quorum and those
who did remain finally went away disgusted
Nomeeting can be held now until some
night next week and meanwhile any business
depending on the action of Council must re.
main unsettled until that time. Among those
WHO WdlItu IdSU nlBnI were meSSrS. Eraney
and Brewer who are interested in the Column
bian Brewing Company, but they said they
were not on hand to ask anything of Council
in connection with their enterprise, save to
make an explanation as to why the bricks
which are to be used in the construction of
the brewery building have been allowed to
block the South Main street pavement. The
explanation is called on account of com.
plant by neighbOring property owner.
President Bet -idge's failure to put the
Board of Health in operation was fully criti-
cised last night He has had two months in
which to make a selection of I've citizens, and
the summer is fast drawing to a close Many
thought last night that even if he was unable
to attend the meeting it was no excuse for a
failure of the appointments, as the names
could have been sent to Council in writing
The presence of the President was not neces-
sary to make the appointments legal and
there is nothing to prevent the President an.
nouncing the appointments between meetings
of Council.

No scrip Here.

The miners of this section were agreeably
surprised yesterday when they received their
pay from the p. & R. G. & l. Co. in cash.
Reports had been circulated that the COM
pany would pay them in scrip, or checks.
1t was reportedyesterday afternoon that all
the employees except the clerks had been paid
in cash and that the clerks had been re-
quested not to use the checks unless they
were in need of immediate funds, but this
report was also incorrect All the pay in
this section was made in cash.

young man named Thomas Grifiths were

the whistling annoyed him. The Injunction
was not respected and Petrowslzy ordered the
young men from the shop. An exchange of
sarcastic compliments followed and resulted
in the blacksmith throwing and kicking
Riley. The latter retaliated very effectively
with "sprag" and then came to town and
swoGe out a warrant. Petrowsky was required
to furnish $500 bail for his appearal q at

Another case was that of Miss Ellie

years of age. He imbibed too freely in pay

that he is habitually abusive at home. He
was committed to Jail in default of $500

When compared with the two squares be-
low Main street, between Centre and Coal,
presents pitiful sight, The property owners
on these two squares are letting a rare oppor-
tunity slip through heir hands by not making
a move towards paving. Perhaps when they
fully realize the benefits of paving and wish
to secure it the Borough Council will not be
in a condition to meet the requirements and
these people will kick themselves for their
hardness.

One of the most difficult things is to con-
vince the majority of people that glass of
hot water will much more eiIectually quenoh
thirst than ice water, or even ordinary cold
water. Most persons shrink from the bare
thought Of drinking glass Of hot water on
warm day. Naturally such would be the case
but the shrinking from it is mistake. 1t
will prove a little heating temporarily, which
will be followed by an agreeable GOODNESS, and
an abatement Of thirst that will surprise It
will not cost much to make the experiment.

have been surprised in my rambling
about town to find that there are some Demo-
Gratis who look upon the nomination of F. j.
Mulholland for Controller as joke and do
not hesitate to say that he is the milestone
ON the ticket nominated last Monday. Now
| am of the opinion that these people may be
treated to big surprise on the morning fol-
lowing the election next November and that
the Controllership is not plum on which the
Republicans can build with certainty. 1t is
quite true that Mr.. Mulholland is not man
of wealth or special prominence in the
county it is also true that he had not the
advantages for education in his younger days
that the young men of to-day enjoy and that
he by no means ranks in the higher lines OF
educated people, but it does not follow that
this may defeat him. By his townsmen
"Paddy" is known as good natured, jovial
fellow with good stock of common sense
and good supply Of sagacity. Perhaps it
was guess work on his part, but before tn,
Democratic convention was held he repeated
and emphatically declared that if Harry
Muldoon failed to secure the nomination for
treasurer he (Mulholland) would be named
for Controller but if Muldoon won the Con-
trOllership would not be expected. Many
are now inclined to the opinion that Paddy
had a far better insight of the situation than
the majority of his friends thought he had :;
and | am of the opinion that should he
be elected to the office the duties viii be per
formed as well and in all probability better
than some of the people who are inclined to
taunt him on his lack of ofeducation could carry
them out. The official is one of the most i'm.
portant in the county, but it must be remem.
bered that the incumbent will have the priv.
ilege of chief clerk at a salary that VIII be
acceptable to a man ofability and if Con
troller with any common sense and his eff
cient chief clerk should strike snag there
is plenty of legal talent at hand at all times
on the hill. Mulholland filled the office of
Chief Burgess of Shenandoah for two success
sive years and he left the office with a clean
record believe that should he be elected
Controller he is capable of building up an.
other similar record. Mulholland is poor and
lacks educational advantages of many OF his
fellow men, but he says he has enough com.

1t Lost Him a Situation. But Secures
Another at Folsom.
William Silcox was tried in Judge
Johnson's court yesterday, before jury,
and was promptly convicted of grand
larceny.
Silcox had held for several months a
position in Front-street box factory up
to the 18th of last month, when he went
on a spree. While drinking he fell in
with one J. E. Tuttle, who was also try
ing to create liquor famine in the city,
and together they went about sampllng
The goods of various saloons. Silcox was
broke, so Tuttle paid for all the drinks.
About 3 O'Clock in the morning they
found themselves at the depot, where
they took seats in the waiting room,
though neither had any notion of travel
ing by rail. After they had been there a
few minutes Silcox left, auG that was the
last Tuttle saw of him. Shortly after
ward Tuttle found that his watch was
missing.
a few hours later Silcox went to Ze-
mansky's pawnbroker's shop TO sell or
pawn the watch. Zemansky recognized
the time piece as one he had repaired for
It's rlghtiul owner, and he notified officer
Alter, who arrested Silcox.
The latter admitted everything except
the taking of the watch from Tuttle' 8
pocket He said that as they were near
ing the depot Tuttle fell down and the
watch dropped from his pocket He
picked it up and put it in his own pocket.
but couldA't tell why he did it; he sup
posed 1t was because he was drunk and
did not realize what he was doing.
The jury were but short time in find
ing verdict of guilty OF grand larceny.
