Cripple Creek is perhaps the only
gold mining district in the world where
a miner can 60 to his work in an
electric street car, descend the mine in
an electric hoist, keep his mine dry by
an electric pump, do his work by an
electric light, run drills by electric air
compressors POSSIBLY in time to be
superseded by direct electric drills J.
and fire his shots by electricity from a
switchboard remote from the point Of
explosion. 1t is estimated that in
Cripple Creek district the use as above
of electric power, effects a saving of
from Is to so per cent. according to
the location and circumstances Of the
mine. Electrical power is revolution
izing the mining industry at Cripple
Creek in reducing expenses. increasing
profits and making available lower
grade ore, hitherto discarded or ignor-
ed as incapable Of being mined and
treated at a profit.

COUNCIL NOTES -.

The city council at its meeting ON
Monday considered the city hall question
in an informal way. The committee
has heard from several persons having
real estate which they are willing to sell
for city hall. 1t must be said that in
no instance is the price asked exorbitant.
From present appearances not only Will
site be purchased, but the erection of
a city hall may be looked for i'll the near
future The following are the sites I'M

Work ON the improvement of Washing

the impotence of people in the neignbot-

ment. This necessitated reference and
consequent delay, but the improvement
will go on.

airy play the visitors showed up well and
in the first inning did nice work In the
second, however: they punched their en-
rors, and allowed the home team to make
runs The visitors then steadied them
selves and did fair work the balance of
the game, though there were frequent
outcropping of errors. Manitowoc play
ed strong game though holding their
opponents even on errors. The out
field of both teams did some fine play

COAL DOCKS.

The Wisconsin Central coal docks at
this city are now in the possession of the
Wisconsin Central and will be put into
immediate use Coal is on its way now
for these docks 1t is said, though no
official announcement of the fact Is yet
made. that the docks have been leased to
the Adams Coal company of Chicago.
Mr.. II. G. Adams of this company was
in the city on Friday and in company
with Mr.. Hanford made an inspection OF
the docks with view of making such
repairs as may be necessary.
1t is quite probable that the docks on
the G. q N. w. property will also pass
into the hands of the railroad company
in which case they will likewise be LEAFS
ed and operated One thing seems quite
certain, our docks will not lie idle much
longer.
The steamer Henry J. johnson arrived
on Sunday with a cargo of 1900 tons of
coal for the Wisconsin Central docks.
Mr.. Vandergrift has not been notified of
other charters made, but has been in
formed that hard coal is about to be sent
here soon.

POLICE SIGNAL SYSTEM.

A special session of the city council
was held on Thursday evening to consid-
er proposition to install a police tele-
phone and signal system. Mr. Croker
representative of the Gamewell Tele-
phone and Signal Co. of Chicago was
present at the meeting, The company
proposed to put in a complete system for
the sum of $3,410 There is to be CEN
trail battery station with all necessary
apparatus, 81 three call boxes and p
telephones, 10 miles of wire strung on
poles owned by the city, a rebate of $50
to be allowed on each mile less than II
not strung.
This is step toward putting the po-
lice on a basis guaranteeing visitation to
all parts of the city. The complaint is
made, and with reason, that sections of
the city are but rarely visited during the
night and are without police protection.
The signal system will either remed y
this or establish neglect in which case
proper steps may be taken for correc-
ton.
The proposition Of the Gamewell Co.
was accepted, the city to be allowed .
per cent discount for cash. The system
is to be ready for service within go days.

DR. BANZHAF is the first professional
man in the city to put his Office ON a cash
basis and announces that all work must
be paid for when completed. He says
in explanation that those who are per
fectly good are just as well satisfied to
pay spot cash as TO have time given them.
The difficulty of collecting from those
who pay grudgingly after repeated dun
ming makes working for them unsatis-
factory as collecting imposes double
burden. Then there are those who
won't pay unless under compulsion, and
some whom you cannot compel to pay.
The doctor will find his present course
wise one as he will lose no good custom
ers and will rid himself of the undesir-
able ones. 1t is unaccountable why peo-
pie show such dilatoriness in settling
bills voluntarily incurred. 1t is sign of
sliftlessness which Injuries the business
of the person who INDUCES in it. The
man who is slow pay gives proof that he
is negligent in everything and his bust
ness is sure to suffer i'll consequence.
Prompt pay is good advertisement. Try
it once and b. convinced, We loiterers.

Two Rivers covered itself with glory
on Thursday last and Frank Kaufman
now looks upon the sand by which the

boygan PROSTATE before the provincial
town and forced to accept terms of I'M

questions. 1t was another case of David

ents ON second mines" The crowd in
attendance was good the gate receipts
being $40. A number of Sheboygan peo-
pie were present prepared to weep with
those who weep and rejoice with those
who do rejoice" They expected to rem

tons There is now another Richmond
