THE BILL WAS PAID.

Colonel T. O'Leary. the former city
clerk called at that office yesterday and
was permitted to go through the old
files in search of a certain receipt for
$S.19, which had been paid by the city to
the Northern Pacific Railway company
during his term of office. Colonel O'Leary
says:
Il paid the Northern Pacific railway
the sum Of this bill. $S.19 on May 3, 1898.
1t was the freight charge On some zinc
required by the fire department. Agent
Beebe Of the railway refused to release
the shipment unless the charges were
paid. Accordingly l advanced them. hi
chief of the fire department was with
me at the time and told me today he re-
called perfectly having seen me pay the
money. The railway company's conten-
ton that the bill never was paid is dis
by the fact Of the receipt bear
ing it's own agents signature.
1T has been the custom Of city officers
to advance money frequently for freight
charges and then to be reimbursed by
the city. The railway will not release
goods until the charges are paid"

Seriously I did save that young man
from going to the dogs through drink. 1t
happened in his way: He is a tlptop
fellow and has no end of ability, but
four or Ave years ago he began to let red
liquor get the best of him. He had q
fine position at the time. and I don't
think he exactly neglected his work, but
1t got to be a common thing to see him
standing around bar-rOoms in the even-
ing. about two-thirds full and talking
foolish. A few Of his close friends took
the liberty of giving him a quiet hint,
and as usual in such cases he got highly
indignant and denied point blank that he
had ever been In the least under the in.
1uence. All the same, he kept increasing
the pace, until it became pretty easy to
predict where he was going to land. AND

II was sitting in a restaurant one eve-
Ming when he came in with some fellow
and took the next table, without seeing
me. He was just drunk enough to be
laxative o his private affairs. and

out my stenographer's note book and
took a-full shorthand report Of every
word he said. 1t was the usual maudlin
rot OF your good fellow half seas over,

including numerous highly candid
details of the speakers daily life.
Next morning I copied the whole thing
neatly on the typewriter and sent it
around to his office. In less than ten
minutes he came tearing in, with his
eyes fairly hanging out OF their sockets.
Great heavens! Charley he gasped,

Machinery Lost.

AT 1 o'clock this morning the mattress
factory, situated across the tracks ana
about 900 feet from the old Montana
Union depot, was discovered to be on
fire, and in less than an hour was burned
to the ground, except the west wing OF
the building, and that was completely
Quilted. 1t is not known who discovered
the fire, but the first alarm was turned in
from Box "a, at the corner of Cherry

anything in the annals Of the fire de-
