Resolved, That the executive com- mittee be requested to consider and re- port upon the expediency of creating a special committee on business, for the purpose of submitting questions of public interest for the consideration and action of the chamber at its meet ings.
 Whether any further action was ever taken to carry out the view expressed in this resolution l do not know, but, however this was, I desire at this time to renew the suggestion. Ques- tions of public concern, both of a local and national nature, which are Of Vi tai interest to us all, are constantly arising, and a full and free discussion of them ill our meetings cannot help to be both interesting and instructive and lead to good results.
 IN CONCLUSION.
 There are many other topics that l would desire to call to your attention and which I deem of interest and im- portance to you, but feel that I have already encroached too much upon your patience and I will, therefore, de- sist from any further suggestions at this time
 Gentlemen the future of this cham Der is in your hands. By uniform eff fort, by individual interest, by assist ing your officers in the performance of their duties, you can make this body a power for good-a dominating factor ln our city's growth and development, shaping it's political policy and advanc- ing it's material prosperity, and thus by so doing increase and enlarge our own sphere of usefulness and activity

 now a membership of over 600, and are without suitable place in which to meet, I would recommend that proper and adequate quarters be rented and furnished for the use of the chamber and it's various committees. Such quarters could undoubtedly be secured, and if thought advisable they could be sub-Iet to other organizations, and in this manner make our rent nomi- nal one. In addition to this we could, ii necessary, levy an additional assess ment of $1.00 a year upon each mem- Der, making the total annual assess ment $500, instead of $2.00, as now.

BATTLE LAKE COPPER.

The Rudefeha having shut down for
the winter, on account of snow, the
long daily procession of ore teams,
bound for the railroad will cease until
spring. Considering the length of time
the mine has been in operation, a little
over six months, and the distance to the
railroad it has made a remarkable rec
ord. 1t has shipped in the neighbor-
hood of twenty-five cars and now has
has 300 tons Of ore piled up in the ore
house. Mr.. Deal, who came down from
the mine recently, says everything is
closed up at the nike and the road to
it is blocked with snow. The miners
worked on, after the road was blocked
until there was no place to store the
product of the mine and had to quit.
There is talk among the freighters of
reopening the road to get at the ore
stored at the mine, but the almost con-
tinual storm clouds which hang over
the mountains in that vicinity will
probably discourage any efforts in that
direction. There is now fourteen feet
of snow in that range and it is falling
daily.-Saratoga Sun.

STORM AT LEADVILLE.

Leadville, Colo, March 5.-Today
saw the worst blizzard OF the snow
storm that has been raging here for
six weeks. The wind carried the snow
at will in every direction and huge
snowdrifts are encountered at every
hand about the camp. No trains have
reached or left Leadville for twenty
hours and railroad people are waiting
for the starm to abate SO they can out
with their snowploughs.
The weather is warm. and this Is
causing innumerable snowslides in out
lying localities. Many narrow escapes
are reported.
At Independence six cabins were car
ried away by a big slide, a number Of
men were borne down the mountains,
but escaped with only a few bruises.
AT Twin Lakes several big proper
ties were buried with slides. but no
loss of life.
At Lackaana T. S. Robertson and a
party of miners heard a crash and then
all was darkness. They broke out their
windows and dug through snow for
five hours. when they reached day
light, and found that they had been
covered up by a slide and had dug out
of twenty feet OF snow. All over the
district come similar reports.
The South Park and Blue River lines
to Kokomo and intermediate towns
will have to be opened by use of dyna-
mite. It has been five weeks since a
train passed over these lines.
Harry Murphy, a fireman on the Rio
Grande snowplough, was thrown from
his engine last night and crushed into
a SNOW bank. He died in a few min
utes after the accident.
The Max Bendix Concert company,
due in Salt Lake City Tuesday, is still

SNOW IS TERRIBLE.

H. A. Hunter, the manager of the Big
Creek Live Stock Company reports that
he has purchased 5000 tons of hay for
the cattle belonging to his company.
This is in excess of the 1000 tons of hay
put up IN the company's ranches. Mr..
Hunter says that the snow is simply
terrible in Big Creek park, the houses
and buildings of Alex. Hilton being en-
tirely showed under, and that his dwell
ling is reached only by means of a tun-
mel. In North park there is more snow
tnan eve was known before, and every
pound of the 40, 900 tOns of hay put up

Toulon, March 6.-The naval maya
zine of La Goubran, between La Seyne
and Toulon, in the department of Var,
Southern France, exploded at 2:3O yes
terday morning. All of the soldiers on
duty at the magazine we're killed and a
number of inhabitants of the district,
the buildings of which we're RACED, all
so fell victims. Forty corpses have al
ready been recovered.
Fifty Thousand kilogrammes of black
powder exploded. 1t looks as though a
volcanic eruption had occurred, the
country being swept almost bare within
a radius of two miles, houses destroyed,
trees overturned and distorted, fields
devastated and covered with stones and
impalpable black dust. Some of the
stones are enormous. One weighing
fifty kilogrames fell in the suburb Of
Pone de Las.
Signs Of the explosion are evident in
all the suburbs Of Toulon and in the
city itself. Even at st. Jean de Var,
five miles distant, windows were shat
tered and doors battered in.
Late reports show that of the seven
sentries, four were killed outright and
THE others severely injured, the cor
poral being literally scalped and the
scalp overhanging his face like a veil.
A large number of soldiers are now
employed in clearing away the debris,
but the work is very difficult. 1t is i'm
possible to ascertain accurately the num-
Der killed, but it is believed that no
fewer than a hundred were injured.
Four OF the injured have succumbed to
their injuries. 1t is believed that If
teen are still buried in the debris.
All the bodies found, or recovered are
terribly mutilated. Sixteen were found
in the rocks near the shore, and it is
feared that others were precipitated
into the sea.
A vehicle moving along the road near
the sa was lifted bodily into the water
