POOL ROOMS MAY OPEN.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

There is a chance that the pool
rooms of Butte will be opened in a
day or so. perhaps tomorrow.
At a meeting of the judiciary
committee of the city council this
afternoon an adverse report was
made upon the ordinance calling
for the closing Of the pool rooms,
and a report to that effect will
be made to the council at the next
meeting.
This action on the part of the
committee has been hailed with
joy by the advocates of the pool
rooms, and it is not believed any
time will be lost in resuming
business at the old stands.

CAUSES SURPRISE,
Connecticut Man Declares His Assem-

Connecticut Man Declares His Assess-
ment Is Much Too Low.
Robert NJ. Bruce. one Of the mil
ionaires Of CT eenwich. Conn, former
cotton broker and a friend Of E. c..
Benedict, has caused surprise by ap-
pearing before the board of assessors
Of the town and asking them to have
his assessment raised so per cent, says
the New York Sun. He said that he
had never paid any attention to the
making ont of his list of taxable prop
erty, leaving it 18th the assessors. He
had looked the matter up recently and
had decided that he was not paying all
that he sho,..d into the town treasury
and he sked for the raise. The asses
sors promised to comply with his
wishes and it is understood that they
will raise the taxes of all other mill
lionaires there to some extent Mr..
Bruce's example is the subject Of much
comment. For many years past Green
wIch has raised 100000 by taxation
and has spent 100000 more than 1t
raised. The debt has rolled up TO
nearly $4CG 600. The town appointed
an investigating committee" and the
members ir'Corted that more money
aust be ra:*cfi by taxation. Fixing up
the taxes Last fall was Pit over until
next spring. The assessors figured up
he amount &C taxable property and an
Increase Of the tax rate seemed prob
IDLE. Persons who have looked up tho
matter say that there appears to be
,ne law for the poor man and another
tor the rich man. This: law says that
Zach property owner must put in a
true list of the real value of all prop
erty. real and personal. but the general
rule among persons Of moderate III ems
has been to pay on GO per cent OF abe
value The mi,liCnaires in some in
rtances have not p.id on 10 per cent OF
ne property.

A NeWsboy Evangel lst.

st. Louis has a newsboy evangelist
His name Is Earl Jamison and he is
IL years old. Several weeks ago young
Garl went to one of his neighbors and
asked him If he could not use his
barn for religious services. His re-
quest was granted and every evening
since meetings have been held by the
young evangelist, except on Sunday
nights. Earl does the preaching and
praying and leads the singing. His
service continues about an hour and
he generally has fair-sized congre.
cation. Those who attend, both young
and old, are Impressed by the fervo1
of the youthful preacher. Earl is .
sturdily built little fellow, with light
hair and frank, fearless manner. Hit
serious mien is like that Of a white
haired Judge. He is q good talker and
can quote the scriptures freely. He
has collected money during his evan

A MILE A MINUTE.
High Speed by Trolley Car In Phlla.
dolphla.

! dolpha.
In whatever other respects Philadel-
phia may be slow she has trolley car
| which sweeps through the city in the
gray hours of dawn and which, taken
day by day, is swifter than anything
Else Of its kind or class in the world,
says the New York Sun. 1t starts from
the heart Of the city just after the
newspapers are out of press and tears
away through the silent streets in a
northerly and westerly direction, up
and down hill and along valleys, with
occasional stops to throw out bundles
until twenty-seven minutes later 1t
tests on the northern summit of Chest
tut hill, fourteen and three-quarter
niles away. This is at the average
rate of thirty-ive miles an hour, in
Guiding at least one stop every three
fourths of a mile. Sometimes On its
route it has run a mile in minute
and an eighth and it has made the dis
lance in twenty-five minutes, includ-
ing the stops, which is just the sched-
ule time of the steam express trains for
practically the same distance between
the same places, though on neither the
Reading nor the Pennsylvania rail-
ways do the trains make any stops.
Sometimes, as on market day, there
are Interruptions, when sleepy teams
get on the lines Of metals, and occa-
sionally another trolley car gets be-
hind time and doesn't give it the right
of way promptly but despite the occa-
sional delays, for two yeas, in all
conditions of weather, facing rain or
snow, with mechanical incidents ad-
verse to it's career, it has mails on an
average thirty-five trips out of thirty
i've on time and only once has it been
longer than forty-five minutes in COW
sring the distance. On that occasion
the wreck of hay wagon was on the
road and for this the Eagle Flight
trolley was not responsible. From the
fact that this car carries the morning
newspapers for distribution it might
be thought to be journalistic enter
prise in Philadelphia, but this is not
the case. 1t is an experiment by the
Union Traction company to test the
maintenance OF high speed and the
avenness of schedule time under cor
ditions peculiarly favorable for secur-
Ing exact factors for all the problems
it is sought to solve. Every trip is OBJ
served by electrical experts, the induc-
ton is estimated, the power measured,
the state Of the metal, the thermomet-
rical and barometrical conditions noted
as we'll as the humidity and fog at the
different elevations along the line, and
when 1000 trips have been made the
data thus gathered will be considered.
with view Of formulating a result to
be applied in such directions of econ
omy and accelerated speeds as may be
opened I'D.

DOGS WEAR SHOES.
Alaskan Animals hold Up Feet to Have
Shoes Put On.

800Oo 1uC w.
In Alaska shoes for dogs have been
introduced. The use of shoes for
animals in tho far north country Is
not merely out of kindness to the dogs.
It is a matter Of necessity, for ono Of
the greatest dangers to travellers in
Alaska is that the dogs which draw
sledges or transport goods freeze their
feet by contact with the ice. This
sometimes renders the animals practi-
cally useless and leaves tho traveller
without means of transit over the
fields of ice. Before tho introduction
Of the shoes It was the custom to wrap
the feet of the dogs in cloth, but this
was a poor measure at best, as tho
cloths often came off, leaving the poor
beasts unprotected. The cloths also
tnterfered with the free locomotion OF
the dogs. Since the gold fields opened
more dogs have been used and great
speed in travel has become necessary.
The dogs shoe was invented to meet
the requirements. The lacings are at
the back to give free play to the dogs
legs. The wonderful intelligence OF
these faithful animals is shown by
their readiness in taking to the shoes.
They become so accustomed to them
that they are uneasy without them
On the trail the dogs have frequently
been known to come to the driver in
the morning and hold out their legs
to have their shoes put on. If tho
shoes happen to be laced too tight.
they will whine and make their dis
comfort manifest, wagging their tails
for Joy when the laces are fixed to
their liking.
