CHARGED WITH CONTEMPT.
James Wilton Will Have to Pungle or
Go to Jail.

Judge Lindsay held a short session of
court this afternoon, and although he
had previously intended that it should
be the last one of his official career in
this century, he announced that he
would hold one and probably two ses-
sions before January in order to pass
upon some matters he has under advise
ment.
During the session James Wilton was
adjudged guilty of contempt of court
and the judge ordered him committed
to the county Jail until he purges him
self of the charge upon which the con-
tempt proceedings are based This con-
sists of failure to pay to Eliza Jane
Kitto $50 for the maintenance of Mamie
Rodgers, minor child, who is being
cared for by Mrs kitto. Wilton is the
guardian of the estate and person of
the child, and as such is supposed to
pay Mrs. Kitto, by order of the court,
$25 per month for keeping the child. On
Saturday Attorney c. NJ. Parr informed
the court in behalf of Mrs. kitto that
Wilton was $S5 behind in the payments,
and Judge Lindsay ISSUED an order re-
quiring Wilton to either pay the amount
before Monday or 'be adjudged in con-
tempt. On Monday nothing was done
about it, but when court opened today
Attorney Parr stated that since the
order of Saturday was made the attor-
ney for Wilton had offered both himself
aE Mrs. Kitto $40 to satisfy the order,
but they had refused to accept less than
the full amount, which was $45 more.
Mr.. Parr made affidavit to this effect,
and backed it with copy of the last re-
port of the condition of the Rodgers
estate as submitted to the court by VIII
ton. This report showed the amount of
money that had been collected in rents
and the amount paid out for THE MAIN
tenance of the child.
Wilton was not in the court room
when the order for his commitment was
ISSUED. but he will doubtless be found
before night.

BIC VOLUME
Of BUSINESS
POSTOFFICE AND EXPRESS OF
FICEs HAVE BEEN JAMMED
DURING THE WEEK,
THE RUSH SAID
OBE UNPRECEDENTED.
Registry Department Had the Largest
Part of the Business-Rush for
Money Orders.

The volume of business at the Butte
postoflice and at the express offices of the
city has been larger during the past
week than it has ever been for the
corresponding period in years past.
There has been an unprecedented rush
of people with bundles for relatives and
friends living al distance. For two
weeks prior to Christmas the postoffice
was crowded and during the past few
days there has been jam from morning
to night. The business done is calculated
to be between 40 and so per cent greater
than it was during the Christmas week
OF last year and as a result the clerks
have been required to work overtime to
keep up with the rush. The registry de-
partment had the largest part of the
work and the money order department
was a close second. The number of
pieces OF mail handled has been very
large, but the clerks have worked hard
and neither the incoming nor the out
going mail has been allowed to accu-
mulate. During the rush Butte has re-
ceived a service that has been better
than the majority of cities boaSting of
twice the population and better mail ia
ciities. The complaints have been few
and far between and the people generally
ledllHe tIdt I-OSlHldStel w INlll ana
his able staff of assistants know Il thing
or two about handling mail
Today there has been rush to the
money order department by people who
have had money sent to them and the
clerk at that window has had but small
chance to rest. There are throngs of
people still inquiring at the general de-
livery and the number impels the belief
that there are many new residents in
the city who's places of residence have
not become we'll known to the carriers.
The express offices have done larger
business than at any time in the past,
but the bulk of it has been in packages
sent or received. Their money business
shows a decided increase but the increase
is not proportionately as large as in the
package business. All of the express
companies have worked early and late
and even delivered their packages on
Sunday and on Christmas day. AS re-
suit they have been able to keep up with
the business to the qualification of per-
sons receiving presents through them.

Elegantly Equipped.

The new quarters of the John j. Fer

street, adjoining Clark Bros bank, the
the handsomest in the city. 1t is the
only place of its kind in Butte where a
stock exchange and cigar emporium is
combined and in both respects it is a
model of it's kind.
The entrance commands attention and
at the threshold one is reminded of the
sweetest establishment of New York or
Chicago The doors are of plate glass set
in dark oak, while Mosaic thing covers
the floor. The interior is splendidly fitted
up in oak with plate glass show cases
filled with smokers favorite articles.
On the opposite side of the cigar en-
porium are arranged leather covered
seats for loungers. Back Of these are the
card and gents club rooms. Adjoining
the club rooms is the stock exchange dl-
vided into two departments, one for
gentlemen and the other for ladies' the
latter having a private entrance from the
alley in the rear near the bank. Mr.. Fer
rel operates the departments for ladies'
and gentlemen from his private office,
unobserved by the spectators OF either
sex.
The quotations of the markets are the
same as those received by all the large
operators of the United States. They are
received by direct wire every hVe min
