new GARBAGE LAW
IMPORTANT CHANGE COMING IN
CITY ORDINANCES.
NO MORE CLEANUP NOTICES
But the Municipality Will Have the
- Work Done on Sight, and Tax
10 the Cost to Property
q Owners.

taDr. Leggat, city health officer, will
leave on Sunday for a two weeks visit
at Denver, where he will attend two i'm
pOrtant conventions. The meetings Of
the Rocky Mountain Medical society, and
the National Health Officers association.
The latter will doubtless have some i'm
pOrtant results on the city of Butte.
1.-The proposed city ordinance taking
charge of the street cleaning and gar
bage problem is being held for a time,
awaiting for my return said DR.. Leg
gat this morning. THE city proposes to
assume full charge of all cleaning up, in
street, alleys or private property, if need
be, and charge the cost to the property
owners. This is the custom in all the
larger cities, and is imperative if one
would have a really clean city. 1t is
necessary that the municipality take
charge, and do the work. rather than
merely order it done. In so many cases
an order is neglected or disobeyed, to
the public harm. But the city can take
hold and do the work at once. in the
time it would take to give the order.
The property owner will pay the bills,
uut even then they will be lower than
when the cleaning is down individually,
and the public gets far better service.
THE object of the health officers
meeting is to discuss plans for caring for
the health of municipalities. The ques-
ton of sanitary cleaning is one of the
most important of all these. l expect
to have q plan formulated by the time
of my return, and in all probability the
ordinance will be framed and passed i'm
:mediately.
q For the present, no change will be
made in the disposition of the city gar
bage. The present crematory is suffi-
though it is an anticuated affair. and
very expensive to operate. In the not
very distant future. a new furnace will
be required, when we shall put in a
more economical plant. The later fur
naces will cost probably not more than
one-half as much to operate, and do the
work much quicker. A gas furnace seems
featured right on the ground, from the
wood that is now burned direct. 1t
gives a far better flame, and is easier OPP
Grated.
"The city will in all probability not
put the garbarge collecting force on the
same basis as the other city employees.
The work will in all probability be done
by contract, which will be more salts
factory in all respects. But the plan is
good one, and will soon be in operation
as soon as the details are worked out
%by studying what has been done else.

HEARD ATAD DELIVERY WINDOW
New Placards at Postof6ce Stir Up
Some Interesting Comment
Among Patrons.

That's what ought to have been
there long time ago." said a husky
and perhaps not very gallant, but en-
inently fair-minded man, as he stood in
line at the general delivery window at
the post office, this morning and read
the following legend, posted up in
conspicuous place, in big. black letters:
persons of either sex are requested
to take their place in line at the gen.
eral delivery"
It believe in being reasonably gall
liant. but it Is a little too much for a
long line of men to wait sometimes
half and hour for their mail, and then
see a lot of women trip gaily up to the

Ing line, chat with the clerk, ask for
all their neighbors, and then give way
to another of their sex who win in turn
check the waiting tine of more or less
busy men. That notice ought to be en-
forced to the letter."
Yes, and they do more than that"
said one grumpy old fellow, whose
corns wouldn't bear his standing very
long at a time. Thine and again have
seen them step up to q friend away
back in the line, ask him the number OF
his box, and then sail up to the window
to call for him, while he drops out of
the line. happy as a clam. Hang 'em,
they ought to be more reasonable" It
might be added that the old gentleman
bore every evidence that he had never
been able to capture the affections of
even the least attractive of the fair
sex, and that no daintily dressed lady
ever offered to relieve him of his place
at the foot Of the line by calling at the
window for him.
''Oh, the mean old things" was the
comment of more than one lady whose
attention was drawn to the obnoxious
placard. why, they're no more gall
liant than so many snakes. What If l
Isn't my right to do so? Isn't it guar.
anteed by the constitution? And what
If do call for the neighbors' mail. II
they can't come, have the right to.
Why, Mrs. Blank would be lnortally Of
Tended If 1 didn't, after she loaned me
that -four last week. And then there
might be postal card with something
on for her. I don't care if they put
signs all over the old postoffice: I'm not
going to wait for that long line of hor-
rid men to get through calling for their
mean old papers and tiresome letters
that they never get. just because the
notice says for me to. So there" and
with a swish of her skirts she was off,
to spread the news among her friends,
and advise them to insist on their con-
stitutional rights, to ignore the warn
ing. to boycott the mean old postoffice,
or do something to maintain their posi-
ton.

Yes, August Flower still has ire larg-

WAITS ENVOY AT VATICAN.
Desire Of Pope For Closer Relations
With the United states.

with the United states.
London. Dec 24.-The Pail Mall Ga
zette publishes the following dispatch
from Rome: 1864.
1.-THE Vatican Is becoming decidedly
more hopeful that the United States
will yield to the popc's great desire
and appoint diplomatic representa-
tive to the Vatican. So anxious Is the
pope for the success Of his project that
he would be satisfied at present with
a semiofficial representative, in the
hope that he would be eventually turn
ed into minister or an ambassador.
ut seems that Washington Is not un-
willing to discuss the matter, and the
Vatican has intimated in return it's de-
sire to meet American wishes in Cuba
and the Philippines and possibly Gre
ate another cardinal in the United
States. The pope is somewhat opposed
to the latter step while Cardinal Glib
bons lives, but he may compromise the
matter by creating Archbishop ireland
or Archbishop Corrigan cardinal of the
curia, entailing living in Rome"
Another dispatch from Rome says
that the pope has received cardinals
who offered him their Christmas greet
ings. He made long address, during
which he condemned the excessive lib
! erty of thought INDUCED in at the pres
ent time. He sharply criticised social.
ism, agitation for divorce and hostility
between different sections of the
church and urged union Of the Chris
tan churches.

Rochester, N. Y, Dec. "a The
Brighton postoffice was entered by
four burglars, the safe door blown to
fragments and the contents, consisting
of about 500 in money and $500 in
stamps, taken.
Mrs. Sylvester Downs, who lives
near the postoffice, was awakened by
heavy explosion and went to a Win
dow of her house and looked out. One
of the safe breakers on the watch out
side the postofiice, hearing the noise
made by Mrs. Downs in raising the
window, drew revolver and fired
three shots directly at her. None of
them took effect. This served to arouse
the whole village, and the burglars
hastily beat retreat. There Is no
clew to the identity of the men.
From the nature Of the work on the
safe door it is thought the men were
amateurs. Something over year ago
the same postotfice was forced and the
safe blown open, the burglars securing
at that time $500 in money and stamps.

IN the early days of California two
scotchmen emigrated thither. One Of
them, an enthusiastic lover of Scot.
land, took with him thistle, the ma
tlonal emblem. The other took a
small swarm of honeybees. Years have
gone. The Pacific coast is, on the
one hand, cursed with the Scotch
thistle, which the farmers find impos-
slble to exterminate; on the other
hand, the forests and fields are laden
with the sweetness of honey, which
has been and still is one of the bless
lngs of the western slope of the Rocky
mountains.
