CHIEF LAPP'S RULES
The Fire Department Boys Must Attend
Strictly to Business.
BOOZE ISN'T IN 1T ANY MORE
When a Fireman Wants to Leave
HIS Post of Duty He Is Re-
quired to Tell All About
II In a Book.

BUTTE, Feb. IA volume of the rules
and regulations Of the Butte Fire depart
ment, prepared by George l.. Lapp, chief,
has just been published. Among the reg
ulations Is ono which permits no member
of the department while on duty to enter
any saloon for the purpose of drinking
and if intoxicated while on duty he will be
under the penalty of suspension from the
department. The members are not per-
Knitted to have spurious or malt liquors
in the fire quarters. No immoral or i'm
proper conduct is permitted.
Another provision which will meet with
general approval is ono which does not
permit any member of the fire department.
to be a delegated to distribute tickets at any
election or take part in political matters
other than to exercise the right of suf-
frage. Every member leaving quarters
except to answer an alarm of fire are re-
quired to enter on a registry the time of
leaving, the reason of leaving, and the
time o return.
four tours or shifts. The first is from 8
a. IN. to p. M; the second from to 6
d. m; the third from p. IN. to midnight I;
the fourth from midnight to a. IN. The
men will be called 10 minutes before the
hour of their watch. The rules give the
chief of the department full control and
power to summary suspend from duty
any person under his command for a
fragrant violation, disregard OF law, ordin-
ance, rule. regulation or direction in all
cases where the interests of the people
or the reputation of the department would
suffer if such prompt action should not
be taken.
Mr.. Stack, the expert Of the Gamewell
fire alarm system, was in town to-day.
He has arrived at the request of Chief
Lapp in order to familiarize the members
of the new department with the Gamewell
fire alarm system and see that the system
is in perfect working condition. The
annihilation of the men who were most
familiar with the system rendered the
visit of Mr.. Stack practically necessity.
The new men will in n short time under
stand the system as we'll as did the old
men.

others spoke in favor of il, and at the vote
there was no one against IL. Mr. Pass
more named l.. B. Howell, j. II. Wharton,
J. II. Curtis, H. {. Kessler and j. ID. Stem
mons as the committee.
Paschal's school of mines bill was dis
cussed and endorsed and its passage in
it's present form recommended.
The road bill of the civil engineers was
explained by +. L. Baker, was also en-
dorsed and recommended for passage by
the legislature.
William Thompson, chairman of the
mineral committee, reported that con-
test had been filed in the land Office
against the Northern Pacific on every
piece of land selected in Silver Bow
county. Mr.. Thompson seconded the
adoption of a motion to appropriate SO
for the purchase of a pamphlet on the sill
yer question. L
Mr.. Thompson also wanted a union de-
pot, but Mr. Howell thought that the time
for agitating that question was not oppor-
tune, considering the hard times and the
fact that two of the roads were in the
hands of receivers. Mr.. Baker also gave
some ancient history on union depot mat
tiers, and spoke of the effort to secure one
about five years ago and how, when the
scheme was almost realized the ground
was all taken up and the price held so
high that the roads gave 1t up in disgust.
He also made inquiries regarding the
start made, to build depot, in the Silver
Bow club some time ago, but got no salts
factory answer. Mr.. Baker thought that
the chamber was not strong enough to
make an effective effort for n depot, and
the matter was postponed and the meet
ing adjourned.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa, Feb. ia sensation
was caused in this city by the crusade of
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union. Not since the days when Rev. Mr..
Hadock was killed by an assassin while
waging wars on saloons has there been
such a temperance revival. About 200
women marched from saloon TO saloon,
singing hymns and reading to Darkeepers
the section of the Martin Law, which they
have been violating. At John Mander-
scheid's place the women were given a
hot reception. Manderscheid called them
all kinds of names and began to push
them toward the door. A pumber of cru
saders were injured in the crush which
ensued,

Big ID felt.
MONTREAL, Feb. 19.-As each monthly
statement appears in the official Ga zette,
the condition of the dominion finances
becomes worse and worse. The latest re-
ports show a deficit for the past seven
months of nearly 100000. This will
mean a deficit for the present fiscal year
of 100000. The startling announce
ment is made that the public debt in
creased S3,473, 900 in January, SO that the
debt is now, in round figures, S250,O00,o0O.
The explanation is offered that the in
crease in debt is due to the payments of
half yearly subsidies to the provinces, but
as these subsidies are paid out of the cons
solidated fund, this explanation is worse
than none at all, because ii is not true.

The First Christmas in America.

Suddenly the lifting OF the tlller,
across which his body rested,
aroused the boy. AS he rubbed
his eyes he heard a gentle grating
sound beneath him, and as he
uttered startled cry a long swell
lifted the doomed craft and bore
her a full length further into the
clutches of the relentless sands on
which she had struck.
Columbus was the first on deck,
and instantly comprehending what
had happened, he ordered the
frightened master, with a boats
crew. to carry kedge anchor out
astern. Half awake, bewildered
and thoroughly terrified, the men
tumbled into the boat, but, instead
OF obeying the admiraPs orders,
they roWed frantically towards the
Nina, more than a mile away.
When they reached her and re-
ported the perilous position of the
flagship, Vincente Pinzon over
whelmed the cowardly master with
reproaches for thus deserving his
comrades. At the same time he
sprang into his own boat and
hurried to the rescue. With all
his speed he was too late to save
the Santa Maria, for she was now
too firmly imbedded in the treach-
erous sands ever to be moved from
them, and it was even feared that
under the cruel pounding Of the
breakers she would go to pieces
before daylight. Her masts were
cut away, her guns were thrown
overheard and everything possible
was done to float her, but without
avail. At length their situation
became so perilous that the admi-
raj, with all his crew, was forced to
seek safety on board the Nina.
From her a boat was despatched to
notify the cacique of the sudden
disaster that had overtaken his
visitors.
The generous chieftain was SO
afflicted by this news that he is
said to have wept, but this did not
interfere with his prompt meas
ures for aiding the distressed
strangers. Every canoe, great and
small, that could be found was
quickly sent to the scene of the
wreck. BY sunrise their occupants
were hard at work, under the di-
rection of the Spaniards, stripping
the vessel of everything that she
contained. So actively did they
labor that before nightfall the
Santa Maria was not only unloaded
of all her cargo and stores, but
these, together with everything
that could be removed, had been
safely conveyed to the residence
of the cacique, five miles away.
Here he and his brother stood
such faithful guard over the prop
ertY, which must have appeared of
fabulous value to them, that when
it was again delivered to the Span
iards not so much as a nail was
missing. At short intervals dur
ing the day the cacique also des-
patched messages of sympathy
and sincere offers of all that he
possessed in the world to Column
bus on the Nina.
BY shutdown the melancholy task
of stripping the first wreck in the
new world was finished, and the
first Christmas day came to an
end, though it is doubtful if any of
the Spaniards, in their excitement
and distress, even remembered
that it was Christmas.

OPPOSITION TO THE SALOON.
A Growing and Practical Method of Com

A Growing and Practical Method of Com
batting the Influence of Rum Shops.
We are pleased to observe an awalS-
ened interest in various quarters in
the matter of providing some proper
offset to the saloons as places of resort
for the masses. Such a movement is
on foot in Brooklyn. Our views and
convictions in this matter have often
been expressed in these columns. We
feel confident that any movement
which proposes to offset the saloons in
any large and really effective way
must seek to provide places of resort
and recreation which shall be estab-
lished on purely business principles,
and conducted in way that shall per-
nit the largest possible freedom con-
sistent with order and decency. The
ordinary coffee-house, as it is known
in this country, does not fill the need
in any appreciable degree. A few such
places might find a paying patronage
in any large city but what are three
or four coffee-houses against seven or
eight thousand saloons! The institu-
ton which the situation calls for will
be modelled after the saloons in every
way consistent with the objects it has
in view. The only great and essential
difference between the two will be the
absence of Intoxicating liquors. -
