The city council of Richmond, Va,
IS at present very much divided over
a contemplated curfew law. The ordi-
nance was introduced at the last ses-
sion of the council and it caused the
most heated debate The question Of
constitutiona1ity was finally raised,
and after a lengthy argument the or
dinance was finally referred to the city
attorney to pass upon its legality. The
city attorney was instructed that if
the ordinance was not constitutional
to frame one that was to accomplish
the same ends The mothers and faith
ers and the children of Richmond are
very much interested in the proposed
law and nearly every one in the city
has lined up for or against the ordi-
nance

Within the past six months several
additions which have been made to the
fighting strength of Uncle Sans sea
forces have brought it up to a high
place among the nayies of the world
Among these are some of the largest
and most powerful vessels in the world
and the submarine torpedo boat Hol-
land, which, according to the naval ex-
perts, is one of the most formidable
weapons yet added to the naval list,
and which is said by them to be the
beginning of the end of TIE construc-

coast and harbor defense and the
means of revolutionizing the methods

During the maneuvers of the n e
fleets off Newport recently

We're tried for the purpose of
developing the usefulness of the
several classes of vessels employed.
Night attacks on the forts and run
ming the blockade were the favored
maneuvers- Then came night attack
by the torpedo boat fleet upon the
bIockading squadron. Most OF these
little vessels were picked up by the
powerful rays from the searchIights of
the batt1eships and quickly put out of
action. One after another these frail
craft fell victims to the guns of the
larger vessels. With the Holland it
was different story With less than
half the speed and equipment of the
surface torpedo boats, this submarine
wonder moved from her position in
the inner harbor and, while running
on the surface, passed near enough to

The methods employed in operating
the Holland are entirely different from
those used in any other fighting vessel
She lies so low in the water while run
ming on the surface that little is ex-
posed to the searchlights, and when
the vessel is completely submerged
there is not even a ripple on the sur
face to indicate her whereabouts. She
is less than half the length and dis
placement of the surface torpedo boats
and, while her equipment is less, she
is better able to send her torpedoes
to their destination without fear of be-
ing destroyed, as there is no way for
the attacked vessel to locate her.

THE GROUP.

Great Falls Tribune: About three months
ago the Tribune announced the sale of the
Broadwater group OF mines at Neihart.
and there has been much speculation as to
the price secured. 1t is understood that
the transfer of the property has been made,
but no deed has yet been filed for record.
There was yesterday filed, however, an
agreement by which JOhn E. Searles, the
trust magnate Of New York, under
date of June II last, agreed to sell the
property to Charles D. Mcclure and L. s.
Mcclure in consideration of $50, 900.
Charles d. Mcclure is a resident of st.
Louis, interested in the Bi-Metallic, Gran
lite Mountain, Diamond r. and other Mon
tana mining companies. He is a multi
millionaire. L. s. Mcclure, who claims Cal
ifornia as his home, is at president resi-
dent manage of the Diamond r. at Nei-
hart.
1t is understood that a tramway will
soon be built between the Broadwater
group and the Diamond r: concentration:
A large force of miners will be employed
at the Broadwater and the ore will be
treated at the Diamond r.. concentration.
This il only one of the important bene-
fits to be conferred upon Neihart by the
erection Of the concentration there, and
men who are familiar with pending deals
are confident that, within a few months.
there will be more men employed in Mel
hart than at any time since 1891. This will
rebound to the benefit of Great Falls.

PREVENTION
Of CRUELTY
ORGANIZATION OF THE SOCIETY
PRACTICALLY COMPLETED AT
MEETING LAST NIGHT.
WILL OPERATE ON LINES OF
new ENGLAND SOCIETIES.
Granville Stuart Elected President
Twenty-four Names Added to
Membership Rolls.

Thu Silver Bow County Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals held a
meeting in the city council chamber last
night and practically completed is or
ganization by electing Granville Stuart
president, DR.. Bernheim vice-president,
Herman Rosenweig secretary and Mrs.
Clinton H. Moore treasurer. A board of
directors comprising Mrs. A. s. Christie,
Mrs. A. H. Jones, Mrs. w. o. Speer, DR..
Donald Campbell, w. H. Orr and Will
liam Bray was also elected.
A constitution and bylaws similar to
those in use in societies of this nature in
New England was adopted. Section 6 of
the constitution empowers the board of
directors to appoint executive agents or
officers whose duty it will be to report
all violations of the city, county n
state laws in relation to cruelty to ami
mails and to prosecute these law breakers.
This will be one of the first official acts
of the board.
The society is to be Incorporated.
After organization had been completed
last evening tw~enty-four names were
added to the membership roll. The fee
is 81. Financially the society is not well
fixed yet, but it has received a substan-
tia start in the shape of a 500 donation
from James Maudlin of Dillon, one of the
many men in the state who are anxious
to see the society flourish and accomplish
that for which 1T has been organized.
After the adjournment of the general
meeting the executive committee held a
meeting and selected a few of the agents
who are to detect acts of cruelty and
prosecute the perpetrators. 1t also de-
ided to hold another general meeting in
the council chamber on Monday even
ing. All persons interested in the work
before the society are invited to attend
the meeting. Persons desiring to become
members of the society are requested
to leave their names with HI. Rosen-
weig at the Journal Office in West Broad
way.
Many ladies of the city have taken an
active interest in the society and will rem
der valuable service in the contamination
of it's object and aims. The meeting last
evening was well represented by them.
