Fire Department Will Occupy Quartz
Street Station.

It is expected that the fire depart
ment headquarters will be moved into
the new Quartz street fire station in a
few days and that the police patrol
wagon will take the place now occupied
by the hook and ladder truck. A num-
her of business men have petitioned the
mayor to have the chemical engine re-
main in the city hail. and 1t is probable
that the requests will be complied with.
Only four men are required to handle
the chemical, and it is proposed to build
sleeping apartments for them in the
lower hall and to convert the present
sleeping rooms on the second floor of
the city hall into offices. The plan most
favored is to have the city clerks office
extended so as to take in the room now
occupied by the treasurer's office, and
to convert the sleeping rooms into an
office for the treasurer. 1t is possible
that the Jail office will be moved to the
ground floor of the building. and a
stairway built from the office to the jail.
Chief of Police Lavell is inclined to
the opinion that the present location of
the Jail is not good. He believes that
the city could dispose of the property
for enough money to enable it to pur-
chase a site two or three blocks out of
the business district, where first-class
city hall and Jail could be built. He
says that the building now occupied
could, with but little cost, be remOdeed
into stores, and the Jail could be used
for a warehouse that would not require
police protection.

THE MINES
OF CLINTON
WORK IN PROGRESS AT SOME OF
THE PROMISING MINES
AROUND THERE.
NEW YORK SYNDICATE
ACTIVELY At WORK.
Milwaukee Company Also Has Big
Force Developing Claims-Log-
ging Men Happy.

According to John L. Sloane, clerk of
the district court at Missoula, who is
registered at the McDermott mining at
fairs at Clinton are in excellent condi-
ton and the future promises great deal
for that region. Mr. Sloane arrived in
this city last evening to attend to matters
of business and this evening will proba-
bly, go to Helena and be present at the
first weeks session of the legislature.
Mining affairs at Clinton are progress
ing very favOrably," he said, The New
York syndicate which is represented by
James Porter OF Helena and Dr. Fox of
Red Lodge has it's machinery in position
on the Cape Nome claim and last week
put in a large force of men.
1.-The Cape Bell company of Milwaukee,
represented by Mr.. Williams, has in
creased it's force of men since the first Of
the year and is sinking one shaft deeper,
having now attained a depth of 300 feet
Other development work is going on and
everything points to Clinton looming up
as a first-class mining camp during the
coming spring and summer.
This New York syndicate has bonds
on three different propositions, including
eighteen claims. and if it's developments
prove successful these bonds will be TAX
en- up by the first of July.
Logging men are all happy over the
recent snowfall. They are getting in logs
In fine shape. No snow has fallen in Mis-
soula until this week, and it is the very
thing the logging men have been waiting
for. There will probably be larger cut
of lumber this season than ever before in
the history of the county,
M Sloan says, further, that business
has been excellent in Missoula county
for the past year, and that while as a
rule the commercial world is rather dull
for a brief period following the holidays.
the expected slump in trade has not yet
materialized in the university city. He
explains this by the fact that hitherto the
weather has been so mild nobody laid In
q supply of winter clothing, but that the
late snowfall has kept the merchants bus
lily engaged III disposing of their wares.

HASSELBERGER WINS CUT.

1t was generally believed that he was
to be the lucky man, and when Mr..
O'Brien's name was used in connection
with it considerable surprise was ex-

MARRIAGES OF THE WEEK.

Among the happy marriages in the
city this week was that of Miss Rather
inc Bowler to Mr.. Edwin H. Beal. which
took place in the Catholic church last
Tuesday afternoon. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. Peter DeSere, one
Of the parish priests, and was witnessed
only by few intimate friends of the
contracting parties. On the same day
Mr. and Mrs. Beal left for the east,
their destination being Maine, the old
home of Mr. Beal, where they will
spend few weeks with Mr.. Beals rel
atives. 1t is their intention to reside
in either Los Angeles or Spokane, but
before locating they will pay Butte a
visit.
For several years Mr.. Beal has been
connected with the business office of
the Inter Mountain, while his bride has
been employed at the Hennessy store.
Both are popular and their numerous
friends wish them long life of happi-
ness and prosperity.
Miss Blanche Fine, daughter of Hon.
B. ]. Fine, of Virginia City, was mar
ried to William S. Webb, cashier at
the Missouri Savings bank at Kansas
City, last Tuesday. A few weeks ago
the bride was the guest of friends in
this city, and during her sojourn sew
eral social functions We're given by
society people in honor of her visit.
When she departed for the east, which
was shortly before Christmas, it was
her intention to spend the holidays in
St. Louis and then return to her Mon
tana home, but on the day before the
wedding took place she Went to Kansas
City to attend the century ball, and
there met Mr.. Webb, whom she had
known for years and who had once be-
fore asked her hand in marriage. Mr..
Webb, it is said, renewed his suit with
out hesitation, and was accepted, the
ceremony being performed at the resi-
dence Of Mr.. w. L. Kessinger, brother
in-law of Mr.. Webb, who holds the
position of United States surveyor of
customs. After the ceremony Mr.. and
Mrs. Webb went to st. Louis to receive
the blessings of the brides mother, who
accompanied her east from Butte, and
they are probably now en- route to Mon
tana to receive a similar Offering from
Mr.. Fine.

We're united in marriage Wednesday
evening in Trinity NJ. E. church, Cen
terviie RY. John Hosking performed

Building Inspector Thomas u. jack
son is to resign to re-entcr the busi-
ness of contractor and builder.
He will he succeeded ii Is said, by
Architect +. l.. Brown, and Mr.. Brown
will have as an assistant the former
building inspector. John Nelson.
In the opinion of the present city
administration, reached at the recent
conference of Recorder Connell and
the heads of departments. the depart
ment of building inspector should have
its work broadened.
With one man doing the work, it is
we'll nigh impossible, If not utterly so,
to NAVE the office much more than an
agency for collecting the incidental
fees.
The duty of the building inspector is
to pass upon the plans for every build
ing before its construction is begun,
and. after the plans are approved, TO
supervise the construction, To Surh an
extent, at least, that there will be no
deviations from the plans that will
violate any of the city building laws.
BY having a chief inspector and an
assistant, II is figured, the work that
should be done by the department can
be done thoroughly. one can do the
office work and the other supervise
the active work of construction, or
make such other division of the labors
as will be the most convenient.
MIR. Jackson the retiring inspector,
was appointed early in Mayor Moir's
term to succeed John Nelson who was
Scranton's first and only building in
spector up to that time. Before be-
coming inspector. Mr. Jackson was

teenth ward.
