A Dangerous Fire

SnOrCly d1Cer the steamer leIC yeSleT-
day launch came rushing into the bay
with the information that the mountains
down by Button Shell Beach were on fire.
The launch Santa Ana was quickly load
ed with men, under the leadership of Mr..
Stanton, and dispatched to the scene of
the conflagration. When the launch ar
rived it was found that the fire had
burned over about fifteen acres of wood
land and had died out in all but one spot.
and this was directly in line with an
other timber belt. 1t was necessary to
prevent the fire from reaching this belt
at all hazards, or it would sweep for
miles along the mountains. After an
hour and half of hard and exciting
work, it was finally eXtinguished.

fine phrase, and shouts of enthusiasm

A PLUCKY BOY.

MISSOULA. MONT.

He Struck the Millionaire for n Raise
and Got Ii.
From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
1t is said that nerve and Chicago
are synonymous terms. Here is a story,
which has just reached New Orleans,
which proves the truth of the idea, and
which goes to show that IA Chicagoan
developes his nerve early:
Everybody knows Marshall Field, the
i-millionaire-the man who gave a
million dollars to a library. Everybody
has heard of his big store In this store
there is a cash boy who is making more
money than his confreres. and the story
tells how he earned the raise. The regu-
lar salary of a cash boy is So week.
The youngster in question thought he
was worth more and hunted up the
manager to tell him so.
Il would like TO get raise" said the
boy: Il think l ought to have H."
My boy" said the manager, you are
making just what is given all the cash
boys. and don't see how can accom-
modate you
II know" retorted the dauntless
youth, but my mother Is widow and
she has five children. l can't afford to
work for So"
The boys assurance amused the man
ager, who. jokingly, advised him to see
Mr.. Field. Now Mr.. Fields visits to his
store are few and far between. He is
rich enough to be above the details of
business, and when he entered the
store an hour or so after the converse
ton between manager and cash boy, his
coming was in the nature of an event
The boy heard of his arrival and at once
headed for the millionaire proprietor.
Watching his chance he slipped upon
the magnate and said:
| Are you Mr.. Field"

you?"
You can raise my salary, please. l
can't work any longer for IS a week"
Il don't attend to these matters You
will have to see the manager"
Il have already seen the manager, sir,
and he referred me to YOU
The boys manner impressed the mill
ionaire and he said My boy. you are
making So a week. That is pretty good
salary for a youngster. II is more than
was making when l was your age
: Well" said the boy. quick as flash
maybe YOU weren't worth any more"
Mr.. Field laughed. Then he saw the
manager. That boy he declared
has too much pluck and wit 10 work
for S."
The next week the Juvenile hero Of
this tale drew 81. and promotion isn't
far off.

BUILDING COMMISSIONERS.
Contractors Must Come to MissouIa to
Examine the Plans.

Missoula, Jan. 1.-THE university
building commissioners had a meeting
at the Office of Architect Gibson this aft
ernoon. Business connected with the
awarding of the building contracts and
ventilating plant was taken up and the
commissioners visited the new Sisters
hospital to inspect the ventilating sys-
tenn there. A rule has been adopted that
contractors desiring to figure upon the
work of constructing the building must
come to Mssoula to examine the plans
and specifications. The large number
of applicants for copies of the plans and
specifications made this necessary, as it
will be impossible to fill all of the re-
quests and the commissioners considered
that it would be unfair to send them to
one place and not to another The in
dcations are that the bidding on the
work will be lively.
