him and the work that had been done.
The most remarkable thing was the
prairie dog wells that had been dug
into. The cut went through dog vii
lage, and being deep one-some forty
feet--it went below the town. There
has always been a discussion about
where the prairie dog gets his drink.
Some say he goes cternally dry. Usu-
ally their towns are miles away from
any stream and an arid country where
there is no surface water at any time,
sufficient for the needs OF an animal
requiring drink. The overland travel

used to find the dog towns out on the
prairies scores Of miles from the
streams. There was no dew, the air
was dry as bone, the buffalo grass
would be parchcd brown, and there
would be absolutely nothing to Guench
their thirst.

in substance he spoke as follows:

pride that we. as Odd Fellows. appear
before you OF this our anniversary, and
in this short address j want to empha-
size a few points of u noble order.

EYESIGHT, GOOD AND BAD

Omaha Bee: There are few subjects
of more general interest, and none in
respect of which more knowledge would
be of greater advantage to people in
general thar the human eye. Vision is
very properly described Is the most
precious of our senses. and it's loss is
considered one of the most serious
Affections that can befall mankind. 1T
is only of late years that the causes or
certain deficiencies in sight hav been
nae known. and the most
statements are still made and believed
regarding them. Ever Intelligent peo-
pie may be excused IL they have not yet
become acquainted with the new dis
coveries, which are comparatively re-
cent. in the making n scientific MT
ting Of glasses. But we shall nave no
excuse to offer in their behalf If they
do not avail themselves OF the means
placed at their disposal for acquiring
the knowledge of the nature or the
troublesome defects of sight. n OF
learning how simple in the great num-
Der of cases they can be cured or as
sisted by the scientific adjustment or
perfectly made lenses.
1t is, of course, always advisable TO
refrain from abusing our eyes; but
when. at length, owing to advanced
years or other causes, the AID OF glasses
has become necessary, II Is OF the great
est Importance hat care and discrlml-
nation should be used in having them
properly fitted. A striking example or
this is illustrated i'm the treatment 10
which children are often subjected
through ignorance on the SUBJECT. III Is
no uncommon thing in our schools 10
see scholars punished for dizziness or
stupidity and the existence OF defective
sight is about the last thing that sug-
gests itself to the self-sufficient MIND
OF the ordinary teacher.

A splendid Audience.

audience at Maguire's opera house last
night. Very man. of the audience

see IL again next season. and the next.

read and read again q beautiful poem
from a favorite author or view and
study again n again the last piece

both. Its charm and beauty lies in
its homely simplicity, the natural
ness of its character and surroundings
and the simple story in it's plain set

will probably be the last time 1t will be

The Mysterious Mr.. Bugle.

Madeline Lucette Ryley, the popular
playwright. is very happy In the selec-
ton of her titles. One could hardly
look for a more popular title than A
American Citizen the play she wrote
for Nat Goodwin: the wonder is that
no one had thought of using the title
before. Her latest success. The Mys-
FERROUS Mr.. Bugle." which will be seen
here on Friday night. is a splendid
name for a farce. and there is some
mystery about 1t, too. for it is said
there is no such name in any of the
big city directories. Although this
play is said to be chock full of absurd
situations and provides laughter galore,
IL has the merit of being thoroughly
legitimate and bears no resemblance to
the wild variety farces of the day. The
name of Joseph Holland at the head of
the cast is enough to guarantee the ex-
cellence of the company.

COUNCIL COM MITTEE.
A Report Will ne Made Tonight Re-
lntixe To the Hale House FIRE.

The special committee of the city
council appointed to investigate the Hale
house fire met yesterday afternoon TO
complete its investigation. and Will
make its report to the ouncil this even
ing.
The committeeman decided TO xamin
no more witnesses. Manager Gilbert said
he had no criticism to make of he man
ner in which Chief Flannery handled
the fire. He expressed the belief that
the fire department was far too small
for a city the size of Butte. n said III
the department was enlarged he would
endeavor to get insurance rates re-
duced, which, he said, he had no doubt
the insurance union would agree to.
The committee has not formulated its
report. but IL Is understood IL will ex-
onerate Chief Flannery and recommend
tina the department will be increased
by the addition OF eight or ten more
men, two more teams n a new truck.
The report will further recommend en-
larging the fire house on Quartz street
TO accommodate the chemical. in addi-
ton To it's present equipment, ana make
of IL the central station, and that a new
fire house be erected probably In a
Park street. at which will be stationed the
second hose wagon and one truck. This
will do away with the present central
station. and the quarters he used for en-
largement of city offices.
