Every now and then a man on n street car
offers a Canadian ten-cent piece 70 a conductor
and the conductor accepts il. Possibly the
man will try the same kind a few days later
and the conductor will not accept the coin
Then there ia an argument. The conductor
tells the man that he Ia not permitted by the
company 20 turn in Canadian money. The man
tells the conductor that the other conductor took IL

The reason for this Il that the banks will not
accept IL from the street car companies. It

 The party which left day before vesler- day with horses to break the trail got as far as HeLev, where 1t eamped last nigh.
 The Skagwav river cannot be u.veled because the wind has blown all the snow off and left a glsring, b,re surface, that even the dogs cannot traverse to advan tage.
 In company with Messrs. Govne md Armantrout, Mr. West left day before yesterday with mail for Emmett. They got as far as the summit, where MT. West turned back last evening at o'clock.
