STOCK DEALING.
(Hilo Tribune.)

That which may ultimately develop
into stock exchange has been inaug-
urated in Hilo, in the shape of daily
auction stock sales. As yet the spirit
of the public is somewhat slow and
timid and the figures bid are several
points lower, in general, than for the
same stock in Honolulu, which makes
it an object for the wise man to imi-
tate the early worm, get what stock he
can in this way at these low rates and
then turn them over in Honolulu.

Mines of RenubJic.

Great Falls, Feb. 22.-Among the Cas-
cade county people who are interested
in the mines of Republic, the new min
ing camp in the state of Washington,
are George A. Graham, formerly of this
city but now at Republic: DR.. Arthur
Morrow and James G. Anthony of Sand
Coulee. These three have an interest
in the Mephisto lode, in which a strike
is reported, and naturally are elatsd
over the good news. The company has
five claims: the Montana, Mephisto,
Milwaukee, Worlds Wonder and This
tie, all of equal prospective value, be-
ing in the porphyry belt. with numer-
Gus outcroppings of white quartz. A
strike was recently made on the Mon
tana claim from which an assay of
$12,364.55 was obtained. The sample
was taken from a boulder of quartz
encountered in the tunnel, and shows
visible free gold. II the ledge proves
as rich as the float, which apparently
came from it, the Mephisto will be add
ed to the list of Republic wonders. The
claims are on what is known as Klon-
dixie mountain.

& Gillen lose about $1,000 on building
and the same amount on stock, with
no insurance. The other losses have
not been given out in detail, but will
doubtless bring the total loss up to
$4,000 or $4,000, with but very small
amount of insurance. Just how the fire
caught is not known, but 1T is thought
to have originated from a badly con-
structed or too scantily protected flue.
The people of Belt have been talking
incorporation with a view to better fire
protection and a building inspector, and
it is likely that this object lesson, taken
with several in the past, will hasten
the discussion.

Boston Wool Market.

Boston, Feb. 22-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow:
The inquiry for wool is of a broader. more
general character, although it is not as
yet reflected in any case in the amount of
business actually done. A great many
samples have been taken by intending
purchasers, however and the latter have
manifested decidedly more interest in the
market and it would not be surprising if
there should be a large business to report
next week.
The sales of the last week aggregate
more than 3,50O,060 pounds, however
which may be regarded as fair average
weeks business. One feature OF the sit
uation is the fact that smaller manufae-
turers, who previously had not been much
in evidence, have been comparatively we'll
represented in the market
The sales of the week in Boston amount
to 2,776,0OO pounds domestic and S22, coo
pounds foreign, making a total of 1855, 600
pounds against a total of 1861, 500 for the
previous week and total of 100000 for
the corresponding week last year. Sales
since Jan. /, 1899 were 3o107. 500 pounds
against 81, 4S9. 4s0 pounds last year at this

Scorclled the Roof.

Great Falls, Feb. 22.--At an carly hour
this morning the fire department of the
Boston and Great Falls addition was
called out, when it was found that the
building owned by B. Feryan and occu-
pied by Tellefson & Kufus as grocery
store was on fire. 1t was long run
from the fire hall to the place, and the
boys at the addition were little slow
at starting, most of them being sound
asleep at the time, but although the
roof seemed to be on fire all over, a
stream was put on quickly and the
flames went down rapidly The fire
was soon out and did no damage fur
Their than scorching the roof and one
side of the building. The loss on this
is about 5000, fully covered by insur-
ance. The loss on the stock of goods is
chiefly one of water and smoke, and
this is also covered by insurance.

BUTTE News.
A DULL AND QUIET DAY
Butte Had On It's Regular Sun
- - day Appearance.
ALL BUSINESS CLOSED
George Washington Was Responsible
Z. for 1t All-How the Pupils We're In
r structed About the Ratchet
and the Cherry Tree.

George Washington was responsible
for a very dull and quiet day in Butte
yesterday. Everything was closed up,
and the town had regular Sabbath
day appearance. The courts and county
q and city offices, the banks and stores
and even the barber shops suspended
business, and the Great Northern flyer
flew with an uncertainty that indicated
a longing to observe Washington's
birthday as holiday and day of rest.
The public schools were not in ses-
sion and the primary pupils put in the
day telling their proud parents all they
had learned the previous day about
: the great Washington. Their school
sblackboards tell various stories about
/ him.
George Washington was born Feb.
30, 1882, and died Dec. IA, 1799."
HE was our first president"
He had new Ratchet"
"He was the first to carry our
flag"
He cut down cherry, tree
He was good man."
..t4 HE never told story"
:. Some of the backboards and the ac-
counts of the little ones differ on this
latter proposition. Some declare that
sha never told STORY and others say
he never told a "fib."
why dldn,t ne tell story (. one
little miss was asked.
Because he couldn't.'
do you ever tell story?" smart
youth was asked.
II am not a Washington" was the
reply.
Who was George Washington" one
primary teacher asked after she had
drilled her little ones in the blackboard
stories.
Up went score of hands and one lit
tie girl who seemed particularly anx-
ious to be recognized was permitted to
answer the question.
He was-he Was--he was" and
then she hesitated. -
Go on and tell me who George
Washington was '
He was" the little one commenced
again, The was our first story teller"
What did Washington dor

answer of another.
who are the British?"
That was a poser, and it stumped the
whole class, but one boy finally ventur-
ed a guess.
i They are beastssef prey. s=1>sss~,
After the teacher had corrected the
boys erroneous understanding the
Washington lesson was ended.

on business this week. says the Teton
Chronicle. {. fIe is a prominent stock
raiser and politician of Fergus county.
When interviewed by republican lead
err of this county on the late sena torial

votes for Clark, and if he did not think
them foolish in doing so. He replied:
mo, but they made d. fools of every
republican who voted for them" That
is the prevailing opinion all over the
state in the republican ranks.

AN OBJECT LESSON.
Fire Does Considerable Damage in the
Town of Belt.

Town of Belt.
Great Falls, Feb. ,22:-Last night was
apparently good one for fires One
started in Belt about $50 p. m, but no
news of it was learned until after a
late hour this morning, the wires being
out of order. It destroyed four build
ings on the left hand SIDE of the bridge
and directly in the center of the down
town part of the place. The fire is sup
posed to have caught from laundry
one of the buildings burned, and as
its neighbors We're all constructed of
wood and a lively wind was blowing it
was not long before the entire row was
in blaze, and by $50 p. m. all were
fiat with the ground. The volunteer
fire department turned out promptly
and did excellent work, but with the
means at their command they were I'M
able to accomplish much, except per-
haps to save the buildings on the oppo-
site side of the street, which We're kept
well wetted down and which eventually
escaped destruction. The buildings
burned were Olsen & Gillen's saloon,
a vacant room formerly occupied as
the Bridge drug store, laundry and

Lights of Warning Asked For.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1 wish to call the attention of the people
to matter which, in my opinion, should
have instant attention. AS every one knows,
the horse cars which now operate on 18th
street will soon be a thing of the past. But
because Of their speedy adjustment, should
great holes be allowed to stand in the
tracks without even SO much as a red light
to warn people of their existence? / think
nearly every one will agree with me in say
ing a most emphatic Mo- In many places
there are holes from one to two feet deep,
and these same holes have been the cause
of many an accident. only last evening as
1 was passing nth and r. where one of
these holes exists, party of young people
went by on their wheels: One of the young
gentlemen spied the hole just in time to
save himself but the young lacy, who was
directly behind him., and who was evidently
following his lead had 10 time to turn
away but ran into the hole and was thrown
with great violence from Eer wheel right in
two feet of dirty, muddy water. She said
she was not hurt at all. but even if she
wasn't her clothes were one mass of dirt
and muddy water. This is only one case of
! number, and think something should be
| done and done at once. 1t may not be adj
visable to repair the numerous holes in the
| tracks as they are to be used such short
| time. but the company should be compelled
| to place lights at all such holes and held re-
| sponsibIe for all accidents resulting there
| from.
