ERIE CANAL.

The celebration of the completion OF
the Erie canal in 1925 was of unique
and almost romantic interest. Cam
non We're placed at intervals Df eight
or ten miles all the way from buffalo
to New York and as the waters II
Lake Erie entered the canal at 10
o'clock the event was announced by
booming OF cannon-an early example
of wireless telegraphy--all along the
line, the news reaching Sandy Hook
one hour and twenty minutes after
the first gun was fired at BurfalD.
Pretty nearly the whole state turned
out to greet the first four boats that
passed through the canal. When the
boats reached this city they were es-
corted through the harbor by hundreds
of vessels Of all kinds beautifully dec
GRATED, being as picturesque marine
parade as was ever seen in these wat
ers. The fleet sailed and steamed TO
the Atlantic ocean, i'm which was
placed by Governor Clinton a keg Of
water brought from Lake Erie. After
the marine parade there was n great
land parade, similar to but larger than
that of 1888, already described.
The completion of the Croton water
works In lS42 and of the first Atlantic
cable in 1858 We're also occasions Of
great civic celebrations. Cyrus w.

TOINTERCHANGE BUSINESS
New Tracks Being Built at the junction
to Facilitate Transfers-The New
Schedule on the Road
Proves Satisfactory

Scores of teams and scores upon
scores of graders are busily at work
on the line of the Butte, Anaconda &
Pacific railway just west of Silver Bow
Junction. They ARE preparing the
ground for the building of large trans
fer yards at that point.
Passengers going and coming from
Butte in the last few days have seen
the activity in that vicinity and won
dered at it. Inquiry yesterday at the
general offices of the Butte, Anaconda
& Pacific brought out this informa-
ton.
At Silver Bow the Oregon Short Line
track, coming from the South, forms
junction with the Butte, Anaconda &
Pacific. There is considerable inter
change of business at that point, the
Short Line hauling in coal and other
freight destined for Anaconda. The
present junction yards have been found
inadequate for the business.
There are to be constructed COM
plete new set of yards at the western
limits of the Silver Bow yards. Five
or six tracks will be put in and every
thing arranged for eXpediting the ex
change of business.
In addition to this new track is to
be constructed, by which the Butte,
Anaconda & Pacific trains will stop at
the Short Line depot without having
to back in. AS it is now the main line
of the Butte, Anaconda & Pacific is
several hundred yards away from the
depot. A board walk connects the stop
ping place Of the Butte, Anaconda &
Pacific with the depot but when neces
sary the Butte, Anaconda & Pacific
runs down to junction of tracks and
backs in. The new track will obviate
this.
On both the Northern Pacific and
Butte, Anaconda & Pacific considerable
track work is being done In this
vicinity, improving the roadbed and
re-setting rails.
The new time card of the Butte, Ana
conda & Pacific is now working excel
lently. For the last few days the Cop
per City Limited has been running
sharp on time and making its connec-
lions promptly.

long been an amateur.
Mrs John Merrill, whose specially is
Indian figures, has rare and unique
collection as the result of her handi-

Miss Fannie White, who pins her

Mrs. E. H. Schroeder who is fond of

Being almost constantly on the road,
he has an intensely interesting collec-

GOING TO HELENA.
Anaconda Baseball Team Will Leave To-
Morrow Night.

Anaconda Baseball Team Will Leave To-
Morrow Night.
Tomorrow Friday, night the mem
bers of the Anaconda Baseball club
will leave for Helena via the Great
Northern, where they will play a Sc
ries of four games with the Capital
city team. The games will be played
on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and
Tuesday, the latter day being the
Fourth of July.
The local players have been doing
some tall hustling since they returned
from their disastrous trip to Helena
two weeks ago, at which time they
were defeated by score of q to l.
This time, however, there will be diff
ferent story to tell. The Anaconda
team fully expects to take three out
of the four games. The defeat of
week ago was due entirely to lack of
practice and to the fact that many of
the best players were unable to accom-
pany the club over to Helena. Ar
rangements have now been fully COM
pleted for every one of the old stand
bys to make the trip. and besides this
the team has been materially strength
ened by the addition of a number of
fast men recently arrived in Ana
conda. Among them is Clemens, Ana
conda's crack outfielder of years gone
by, who has been visiting in Minneap-
OILS 1Of the past elSnL illOnlHS, Dut
who is now again with the team and
will lend his quick eye and mighty bat
to help carry the club on to victory.
The pitching department has been
strengthened by the addition of st.
Vrain, well known twirler. He will
be added to the staff, which is now
composed of Long, Lynch and King.
Jack Flannery will probably hold down
the initial bag for the Anaconda club.
Practice has been going on steadily
and the boys have worked hard and
faithfully. They will continue so to
do until the time for departure ar
rives. The boys will leave to-mor-
row night. so that they may get in
full nights sleep, and couple of hours
of practice on the Helena grounds
Saturday morning. This will be of ma
terial assistance to them, inasmuch as
heretofore they have always been I'M
der the disadvantage of playing ON
strange grounds and under conditions
with which they We're unfamiliar. The
practice on Saturday morning will
overcome. that difficulty.
Altogether the team which leaves
Anaconda tomorrow evening will in
all respects be stronger than any
which has yet represented this city
thus far during the present season.
1t will be a team more fully capable,
by at least SO per cent, to cope with
the strong and mighty twirlers of Hell

Millions Given Away

It is certainly gratifying to the public
to know of one concern in the land who
are not afraid to be generous to the needy
and suffering. The proprietors of DR..
Kings New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds have given away over
ten million trial bottles of this great
medicine, and have the satisfaction of
knowing it has absolutely cured thousands
of hopeless cases. Asthma, Bronchitis,
Hoarseness and all diseases of the
Throat, Chest and Lungs are surely
cured by it. Call on your druggist and get
a free trial bottle. Regular size SOC and 81.

REMAINS IN ANACONDA.
One of the Ringing Brothers Stops Here
With His Family,

Mr.. and Mrs. ALI T. Ringing of Ring
ling Brothers circus, with their little
son, will probably be residents of Ana
conda for week or more. They are
guests at the Montana hotel. Because
of the slight illness of the little hoy it
was decided best for him to remain
here, where he can secure good medical
attention, so his father and mother re-
main with him. They all probably will
rejoin the circus somewhere in North
Dakota. Mr.. Ringing is one of the
brothers who has charge of the per-
Torrance in the big tent. Each of the
five brothers has some particular duty
assigned him.
