An Improbabie Hone.

In looking into the future we find our
selves staring at a blank wall; for with

ideal method of composition would be the
orator could talk and have his spoken
word reproduced at once on paper as the
written word; but, unfortunately, like
printing photographs in colors. each sue
ceeding advance and discovery in the
world of invention seems to make this
surmountable difficult1 lies in the fact
that there is no connection between the
sound of word and its appearance on
paper. We will never reach this ideal

Maj. Worthington was quite nice
about it.

"Then you won't be offended?"
"'Of course not" replied the major,

Dick was greatly relieved to find that
the major took it SO cheerfully. He
had hoped that his association with
Walter Greville would be Of use to him

anxious not to compromise his rela-

waiter, deferentlally.
Dick glanced at the bottle, and a
smile overspread his countenance? He
was enjoying the comedy.
"Pommery '92 Is all right" he ex-

The waiter retired mystiHed. Dick
was the first to speak. He thought he

Business Men Will Start Plans
In a Few Days
FOR A BIG CELEBRATION
There Are But Forty Days to Make
All Preparations and Action
Must Soon be Taken

The next great event after Decoration
day will be July 4, and it seems probable
that it will be celebrated in grand style.
About a month ago it looked as though
the volunteers would be home by that
time, but it is now out of the question.
The greatest day in the year is only 40
days away, but it does not seem so close
because summer came only three days
ago. If for no other reason than the
short summer, the Fourth ought to be
celebrated at home this year, so as to
give the residents a chance to "a as
good a time as possible, and for the fur
Their rssson .nst the home merchants and
home people may have a chance to make
some of the money that will be spent to
celebrate the day. A good celebration
cannot be gotten up in much less time
than a month, therefore the merchants
and business men will act as early this
year as possible in preparation for the
Fourth of July celebration. A meeting
will be called about June /. This will
give the committees time to engage a
speaker Of the day. prepare a good pro-
gramme. purchase the fireworks and adj
vertise in order to make it a celebration
worth attending.

ODDS N ENDS.

Anaconda has become a great wood
shipping center of late which is sub
stantiated by the fact that during the
past two weeks the J. T.. Carroll Co. have
shipped at least 1900 cords of wood to
Butte. Since Anaconda has had the
smelters, and that was the beginning of
the town, wood has been shipped in from
all parts of the county and adjoining
counties but no wood to any great extent
has been shipped out until this spring.
The wood being shipped to Butte now has
been piled up in different places in Ana
conda all the way from three months to
a year and some of it longer. The large
stock of wood held on hand by the Car
roll Co. is due to rush Of pole and cord
wood on the market during the past year
coupled with the decrease in population
which is estimated at about $500 or more,
n these two things with other condi-
tons have caused the wood market to. be
completely Quilted. Coal was another
factor in driving out a great deal of the
wood sales. The Carroll Co. also handle
coal but they are not in it any more with
the Anaconda Goa company which has
a cinch o. the coal trade in the Copper
City.
There are men and reports in Ana
conda which claim thu there has been
co,nterfeiting going Of within the city
during the past 80 days. One is the coun-
terteiting of nickels with which the
hickel-in-the-slqt machines are said to
be worked and the other Is the counter
feiting of whole books of street car tick
cts with which the Street Car company
is said to be worked and which is depied
most emphatically by those in authority
at the street car Office.

THEIR PLEA

Four men arrested last night by the po-
lice charged with vagrancy were brought
before Judge J. M. Kennedy for trial this
morning. Each of them pleaded guilty.
Judge Kennedy put them through a rigid
examination and learned that three Of
them came from the east or west in
search of work, which they could not find.
The fourth one was a man named
OKeefe who has resided in Anaconda
some time. He has been out of work for
some time. What money he had was spent
for board and clothes and when that was
gone he was compelled tc sleep and eat as
best he could for a man who had no mon
eN. Ho claimed he could not get work in
without the influence Of friends
unless he got into some boarding house
and run a board bill and then the board
house boss could get him a job. Judge
Kennedy refused to accept their pleas
under these conditions and discharged
them.
