THE NEW PAPER.

Speculation is rife today because of a
report that the work of placing the ma
chlnery OF the new paper has been tenn
porarily suspended. One reason given is
that the old Helena Journal press has
been ound in poor condition and that
the launching of the new venture will be
delayed till a new press can be shipped.
Another reason for which Dame Rumor
is alone responsible is that the machinery
required to complete he plant is too
heavy for a wooden building and that
work has been delayed till another loca-
tion can be secured when a morning in
stead of an afternoon paper will be
printed, beginning September LIST. 1t is
also reported that the new paper has
been consolidated with each of several
others printed in or near Butte.

New York, August 10.-A special to the
Herald from Newport, r. l., says: Mrs.
Antonio Yznaga, grandmother of the
Duke of Manchester, has written to
friends in Newport hat the duke is en-
gagged to be married to Miss Helena Zim-
norman, a wealthy young woman of Gin
cinnati, O.. No information is given as to
when the wedding will take place. This
announcement follows a report that was
circulated several. weeks ago. At that
time Miss Zirnnaelunan was staying at
Na~rragansett Pier and after her engage
ment to the duke had been printed in
several papers she authorized an authori-
tative denial in the Herald. It was the
fact Of this denial that gave the news
contained in Mrs. Yznaga's letter an es-
pecial interest here.
