CORONADO

No Lack of Amusement at this Fashio nabIe
Resort
CORONADO, Jan. 25.-The Hotel del Coro-
nado guests find no lack of amusements as
january wanes. Every morning the bath
the swimming tanks and down the slides,
and it is difficult to say who gets the most
fun, the bathers or the lockers on.
Thur sday night the Reds and Blacks of
the Athletic club had a hot contest at water
polo. An excursisn was given one after
noon to Zuninga jetty, in compliment to
guests of the hotel, who were thus treated
to the novel experience of a steam car ride
for more than half mile directly out into
the Pacific. Rabbit chases gain in popu-
larity each Week, the last proving such
capital fun that the dash over to North
island, in the face of bracing breeze from
the sea, is the talk yet of those who par
ticpated. Euchre and whist always have
their followers.
DR.. and Mrs. j. B. Talcott of Pasadena
are passing their honeymoon here. The
doctor enjoys the distinction of being the
most elderly bridegroom who has visited
this resort.
DR.. f. W. Steddon and wife of Los An
geles are also here on the first tour they
have taken az husband and wife.
Thomas Hill, of fame as an unrivaled
artist of Yosemite scenery, has arrived to
pass q month or more. His daughter,
Willetta S. Hill, accompanies him.
Another artist of prominence who finds
the marine views at Coronado very pleas
ing is j. C. Nicoll of Chicago, who is ac-
companied by his daughter. Mr.. Nicoll,
who is ex-secretary of the National Acad-
emy of Design, is here on pleasure bent.

THE SANTA MONICA NEET

The class A end of the Southern Pacific
company's program for their meet at
Santa Monica on Washington's birthday is
practically completed. 1t will include
three novelties One is a two-thirds of a
mile 'run and ride" race, the other FIVE
mile military relay, between two teams of
the National guard, and one-mile military
novice. Both the latter will be ridden in
heavy marching order, minus overcoat and
blanket, and will establish worlds
record, being the first of their kind ever
run on track. The class B program will
have an unpaced mile under q new name
and conditions, viz: a post record.
The prize list is not yet given out, but if
is possible to judge by the previous meet,
there Is no doubt of the good value of
everything offered by the Southern Pacific
company.
Cyclists belonging to the National guard
will meet Captain Steere at the armory
this evening at s o'clock to arrange the two
military events in the program. There are
many clever riders among the members OF
the N. G. c., and the time may not be as
slow as might be expected from the con.
ditions under which 1t will he run.

l.. A. A. c. CHATTER

The Los Angeles Athletic club is already
making preparations for the removal of
the quarters to the handsome new building
that it will occupy. The building is rap
idly approaching completion, ard by the
first part of March the actual work OF re-
moval will begin. In many instances the
rooms will be entirely refurnished, for
there is not enough furniture In the present
room of the club to more than I'LL one floor
of the new building. So, in order to assist
them in this expensive process, the
directors have decided to hold benefit at
the Los Angeles theater some time during
March, more probably at the latter end of
the month. The program will consist of
all sorts of music with vaudeville turns in
which some of the best amateurs of the
city will take part. Athletic sports will
figure largely in the entertainment, and
already a number of the we'll known aero
bats of the club are preparing for the
event. Among the excellent turns that
are being gotten up for this benefit, the
work of the Banks-Sheckles trio and the
Scott-Foote pair are the best. These young
men, in particular the last named pair, do
exactly the same work that may be seen
any evening at the local theaters. Con-
slant practice is making them perfect, and
when they appear at the benefit there will
not be much by which to distinguish them
from the professionals.
The idea of putting a running track in
the gymnasium of the new club building
has been given up. 1t seems that the adj
diton would render the gymnasium too
dark for comfort, and would do away with
the possibility of having handbali court.
Instead, the directors are figuring on put
ting in we'll appointed stage, SO that in
the future all club entertainments may ba
given in the building. The idea is certainly
a most excellent one.
John Brink, the president of the club,
has received telegram from the Modesto
football team, esking for the names of the
Los Angeles elevens, with a view to chal-
lenging them. 1t is probable that the
gIaIIatuIs OcCideuJaI college VIII tie
asked to reduce these gentlemen from the
country to small pieces.
All members of the club deeply sympa-
thze with Walter McStay, the pleasant
secretary, in the loss of his mother, which
came suddenly on Thursday afternoon. 1t
is doubtful if there has ever been man
who has filled the position SO completely to
the satisfaction of all concerned, and the
many friends that he has made extend
their sympathy to him in his bereavement.

Work of Preserving the Old rlission Build
ings-The Pearce Mine Continues
to Pan Out

Tucson, Ariz. Jan. 25.--Lt is not
generally known that Tucson possess
esA.a salt works that is supplying
the city and many of the outlying towns
with that essential constituent of food.
The works are owned and managed by a
grocery firm, Wheeler & Perry. The salt
is brought from Guaymas to Ncgales by
rail and from there to Tucson by teams,
and it is stated that the product can be fur
nished here for price considerably less
than demanded for it from other sources.
The $1,000 appropriated by congress for
the preservation of San Xavier del Bac,
one of the finest missions of the southwest,
has been judiciou sly expended by people
who understand the difference between the
words "preserving" and ''restoring" as ap.
nliad tn old missions. This relic of the
seventeenth century was estaDlisneu by
the Jesuit missionaries for the Papago In
dians.
A dormitory that will cost 81 900, when
completed, is in course of construction at
the university of Arizona at Tucson. The
material used is volcanic tufa, fine grade
of ligh. gray sandstone. The dormitory
willafford dining and sleeping accommoda-
ten for from sixty-five to seventy students.
The excitement that greeted the discov-
cry of the Pearce mines has not abatetl
perceptibly. Shafts have been sunk all
along the twenty.foot ledge to depth of
sixty feet, and all the rock brought up but
verifies the promises of the surface. The
extent of the claim is 1900 feet. The low
est assays have been $50 ton, though
shipments so far have averaged 500 a
ton Thirty miners constitute the regular
working force of the new company, and
this number will be greatly augmented
when development work commences.
Complaint is made by the Pima Indians
at Sacaton, back of the Maricopa noun
tains, that wood is being stolen in large
quantities from their reservation by MeXi-
cans, and the Indians seem poweriess to
protect their own. The Sacaton reserva-
ton is we'll timbered, and the Pimas obtain
their livelihood almost entirely from the
sale of wood, that tribe being independent
of government bounty.

THE DOG SHOW

Preparations are already being made for
the holding of the annual bench show Of
the Southern California Kennel club. In q
circular that has been sent out by the club,
the remarkable statement is made thar no
other club in the country except the New
York Westminster club has held show
every year since it's installation. The local
club was formed in 1889, and held its first
show in June of that year. Since then the
club has held its show regularly every year
and their work is visible in the effect of
the raising of better bred class of dogs
than was formerly obtainable in this part

The complete success of the Pacific Coast
1ield Trials club contests has already been
reported in these columns. A L os Angeles
man, in the shape of John Schumacher,
won the much valued derby with his fine
English setter bitch, Rowena. The success
of the trials was complete.
In other lines the local stagnation is no
less than formerly. In the future several
events loom up, but their feeble little
"Otototoi" hardly makes up for the deadly
quietness of the present. But as the larger
part of the sporting world has it's eyes
riveted on El Paso, where the great fstic
carnival is to take place, the lack of local
material IS not greatly felt. By the time
that this huge event is completed, then the
present congestion will probably have been
relieved.

THE COUNTY LEVY IS MADE
No Reduction From Last Years
Levy, Except for the Road
Fund.
Commissioners Again injure the Tax.
payers OF the City Of
Great Falls.

The county commissioners held an ad
journed meeting Monday, Commission
ore Dickey and Hay being present.
John Lamb of Armington was ap-
pointed game-warden, to serve for two
months at salary of $50 per month.
The commissioners made the county
tax levy and incidentally laid plans to
muIct the Taxpayers of school distric.
No. in the sum of at least S12 600 more
than is necessary.
The following levy was made: For
the state fund, 2b mills; for the general
fund, 10 mills; for the road fund, mills;
for the stock inspector and detective
fund, ~ mills; for the stock indemnity
fund, "a of | mill. The last two taxes
are levied only on the assessed valuation
of live stock. belonging to persons who
have moro than 10 head The levy is
lust 70 mill less than in 1895, when the
levy for the road fund was 212 mills;
this year the law places the maximum
levy for this fund at mills. No levy
for the poor fund was made, there bong
balance in that fund sufficient for the
expenses during tho ensuing year.
Oln the general fund levy of 10 mills, is
included the mill levy which the com,
nlssioners intend for the schools. The
apportionment of the school money will
be per capita and was not desired by
school district No. l, which had already
called special election at which the
question of a S mill levy would be sub
initted. BY the commissioners action,
this district will pay $4,000 and receive
in return about 2l,OOO. In addition,
Taxpayers of district No. | will be asked
to pay special tax of 2 q mills, x mills
of which would have beeu unnecessary it
the commissioners had respected the
districts wishes
In addition to the general levy spe-
cial levy Of l q mills on the property in
the district was made at the request OF
school district No. l, to meet interest on
the bonds and the allowance for the
sinking fund Of the district, and epe-
cial levy of mills on property in school
district No.. (Sand Coulee) was made
for the same purpose. A special levy of
5 mills on the property in school district
No. 33 (south of Truly, authorized by
the electors of the district, WAS made in
order to build school house in the die
trict.
Summed up, the country taxpayer
(unlees his property is in one of the
school districts in which special taxes
have been levied) will have to pay IA q
! mills; and If he owns over 10 head of
live stock, he must pay "a mills addi-
tional on the assessed valuation of the
stock. The resident of Great Falls must
/ pay a city tax Of 10 mills, county and
state tax Of l4h mills, special school
tax Of Il mills and probably an add,
tional special school tax Of q mills; in
all, 2819 mills.
II, however, it had been decided that
the trustees of school district No. l.
when authorized by the electors, have a
prior right to levy school taxes, the total
tax in Great Falls would be only p
mills; in other words, the school trls-
tees, if permitted to act as they desi ira I'd
would save to the taxpayers of school
district No. | the sum Of $4,000
