SNOW IN CITY STREETS.
A New, Effective Msehius for Kidding the
Pavement OF this I.eu~br>-e..

A New, Effective Msehius for RiddinE the
Pavement OF this Ineuubrnper.
For more than thIrty-hve years. or since the
necessities OF business demanded the removal
OF snow from tho city's pavem ents. inventors
have been at work trying to devise eoms means
OF rlGding the streets OF this troublesome In
cumbrance incidental to winter The Patent
ONCE at Washington Is filled with models OF
machines which have been designed to per-
form this work. Many OF these machines have
been tried only to be found wanting. while
others never got beyond the model stage. Most
OF the appliances have been constructed with
the idea OF disposing Of snow by the applica-
tion OF heat In some form. but their use
has proven either that thoy would not
do the WORK with sufficient rapidity or that 1t
cost altogether too much to operate them.
These repeated failures had led the street
cleaning experts to believe that the old way OF
removing snow and Ice By means Of plenty OF
men and carts would have to be continued till
the end OF time until the machine which was
exhibited In Thirty fourth street Wednesday
night was tried. This machine. which Is rep-
resented in the accom- pan ylng cut. Is still only
In the experimental stage. but It was demon
strated by II that there 10 q cheaper way Of
getting rid OF snow banks than with shovels
and carts.

A miniature reproduction OF the Midway
Plaisapcs OF the Worlds Fair attracted large
audience to the Madison Square Garden last
evening. Tho great floor OF the Garden was
turned into streets lined with German. Irish.
and Indian villages.
In the Irish village there were clever per-
formances by JIG dancers and pipers. An'ex-
cellent concert By an orchestra OF young wo-
men was given in old Vienna" Besides
these entertain me nts there were performs noes
By native actors n the theatres OF the Japan
ese. Chinese. and Turkish villages.
In the Indian booth u company OF native
jugRlsrs bewildered good audiences by clever
performances OF Illusions. including the Das-
ket trick. In tho Cairo village the fun was
furnished by two small cAmels.
These animals had the best end OF ths fun.
because very few OF the women who tried TO
ride were able to cling to the platforms which
were called side saddles
The features Of the vaudeville were repre-
scented by a kangaroo that boxed with a n sgro

AsIo GENERALITY.

"Relative present and prospective cen
trality as TO population" That is one
OF the cardinal issues" that the Ana
conda Standard says are involved in the
capital contest. 1t is rather singular
that it should invite such comparison.
II was officially determined as the re-
suit of the census OF 1890 that the CEN
ter Of population OF Montana was fifteen
miles southwest Of Helena Since that
time Great Falls has experienced a
marvellous growth, and the extension OF
the Great Northern railway has built up
the cities Of Kallspell and Columbia
Falls, and number OF lesser places on
its line. Beyond any question the
growth OF population within the past
four years has been northward and
westward, and IL is probable that
Helena is now almost the exact center.
Then as TO the future: Helena lies con-
siderably west OF the geographical GEN.
ter; but this fact is balanced by mani
fest physical conditions. Eastern Mon
tans is undoubtedly destined to realize
vast increase Of population in the CON-
ing years. but it is largely an sgricul-
tural and grazing country, and will
scarcely equal western Montana In the
number OF inhabitants per square miles
OF area. No reasonable forecast can be
made; no changes can be anticipated
that will remove the center of popula-
tion any considerable distance from the
present capital. AS we have previously
stated, there is no state in the union
which is so fortunately situated in this
regard; that is, In having its scat Of gov.
ernment so located as TO serve the end
of securing the greatest convenience to
the greatest number of citizens. AS far
as Anaconda is concerned, its preten-
sions in this respect are simply ridicu-
lous. II 10 situated in the southwestern
corner Of the state, and il the capital
were located there the people would not
allow il to remain. After they had sur
fered few years from the inconyen-
fence, they would insist upon its re-
moyal, Notwithstanding such action
would visit very severe burden upon
the taxpayers Of the state.

ACCORDING TO the official directory OF
the Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone
company there are 9l7 telephones in use
on their system in Helena, Butte, Great

Meadervllle, Centeryille and Silver Bowl

and Philipsburg 10. or the fourteen
telephones In Anaconda, seven arc In
institutions controlled 10y the Anacoads
company, or Mr.. DAILY, leaving only
seven for the "oItsiders" who do bus
iness in the Copper city TO do their he'll
loing over. The Standard admits that
Butte doea the heaviest buoiuess in The
state, and eays that Anaconda comet
next, and that poor little Helena isn'l
10 il. Strange that in Anaconda, where
such an immense business 10 carried on
they should only have use for fourteen
telephones, while in Helena, which, &c.
Cording to the Standard, is dond, anC
has lost whatever little j9bbing trad,
