The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1901-11-01
ALWAYS IN A HURRY.
Reason Why Butte People Fail to
Laugh at Stage Joke.

1--WE been in many good towns" re-
marked a theatrical manager last night,
as he sat in cafe, surrounded by a
number of friends, but Butte is the
best Of them all.
There is one thing. though, that has
puzzled me not little. and that is the
fact that the expression, used to great
extent on the stage as slangy, laugh
raising side play, You will have to
hurry creates no laugh here.
THE other night the people of my COM
pany used 1t number of times, but not
a single laugh came; not q person In
the audience seemed to notice it at all.
I cannot understand it. Are the people
of Butte not up to the latest In funny
business?"
Huh" cut in a man known as an all
around hustler. Are the people of
Butte behind the times-well, should
say not. The truth of the matter is. they
are so used to doing things with rush
and the people are SO much in a hurry
all the time that they cannot understand
it when told that person must hurry.
Butte residents are always in q hurry.
If you will notice it. and that is why the
city stands at the top of the list in a
business way all the time"

TELEPHONE TENDERS WORRIED
OVER STRANGE STORY.
c0MF;scATI0N OF PRESENTS
Intimation That Methods Of a Chicago
Superintendent Will Be Followed
Here Brings Out
a Protest.

bright. prompt, patient and Obliging, as
the telephone girls of Butte always are
and whose record in this direction
extends far and wide-are naturally the
recipients now and then of little pres
erts, such as box of candy, or some
thing like that from pleased customers.
And there seems to be no good rea-
son why they should not receive these
presents If they chose, for it is hard to
see where any harm is done when a
pleased customer shows his appreca-
tion OF the good work done by the en-
pioyes OF the telephone company.
But it's different in Chicago.
Thereby hangs tale, and the Butte
telephone girls, who have heard strange
stories regarding the methods OF the
company's superintendent there, are
wondering II the Butte manager will
ever find it in his heart to do Mkewise.
1--WE are not much afraid" said one
of the prettiest girls in the Butte ex-
change, this morning. when asked IL it
had been intimated to them that pres
ents they might receive from pleased
customers might be taken from them
and burned or broken up.
things do not live in Montana. We
look tor our usual presents at Christ
mas time. and I'm sure there will be
no objection to our receiving them"
':Just read this" said another of the
Girls, handing the visitor the follow
ing. which she had just clipped from a
Chicago newspaper. Just read that;
# it is not an outrage do not know
what is."
Chicago Girls Afraid.
'TIello" girls in Chicago are panic
stricken since the report has reached
them that President Sabin. who has
but recently come to Chicago, had a
summary way of dealing with the pres
ents that the telephone girls out in San
Francisco received when he was at the
head of the telephone system there.
The story is that President Sabin
used to make all the telephone girls
bring him the gifts they received. The
presents were all stored away in a
great gloomy room guarded by savage
men and q still more savage dog.
Then once every month the savage
men dragged forth all the gifts, roses,
boxes Of candy, books. chewing gum,
and what not, and, piling them alto
gether in a great heap on a vacant lot
near by, saturated the mass with kero-
sene, applied a match, and stood near
by and jeered while the flames con-
stunned all. the flowers, the candy. the
books, the chewing gum, and what nots
And all this time, while the red
tongued demon cruelty devoured all
these precious offerings, President Sa-
bin sat in his Office and sang just as
Nero did while Rome burned.

This Is the terrible story that has
reached Chicago and which has caused

SHOT WHILE OUT HUNTING
Claude Seitz Pulled Gun ont of Il
Boat and One Load Passed Be
meath His Left Arm.

While hunting on the river Satur-
day afternoon Claude Seitz, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. J. II. Seitz of 5ll south
Walnut street, pulled a shot gun out
Of the boat muzzle first and one bar
rel was discharged, tearing a hole
through the flesh of his shoulder few
inches below the arm pit, and but a
few inches from his heart. He reached
home and under the care of a doc
tor is certain to recover.
The accident happened about 4
O'Clock on the Neosho below the
Ewing place. Claude and "A boy nam
ed Bliss had boat and were pushing
it along, young Seitz wading behind
he boat. Water began collecting in
the boat and he noticed that it threat
ened to wet his gun and grabbed has
tily for it. As he pulled it to him one
hammer caught and load of shot
tore hole clear through the flesh at
the lower end of his left shoulder
blade. A few inches to the right and
it would have found his heart; few
inches higher and it would have sew
cred the arteries beneath his arm.
Seitz dropped the gun and waded
ashore where he quickly stripped off
his shirt and examined hs injury. The
boy with him hurried away for help,
being badly frightened.
In the meantime young Seitzilfound
his way to Bird Kellar's house, where
Mrs. Kellar bound up his wound the
best she could. Soon afterwards the
boy came with Billy Groomer who
put Seitz in his wagon and brought
him home, stopping at Capt. Ewing's
to telephone Mrs. Seitz of the acci-
dent. Mr.. Seitz and DR.. Coflman
were called to the Seitz home and
were there when Claude arrived.
He lifted himself on his we'll
elbow to assure the anxious family
that he was ceiling all right and re-
iected his fathers offer to lift him

The Report Was True

Some days ago the DAILY REGISTER
published an item to the effect that
work on an Indian Territory railroad
was being delayed by lack of men,
although contractors were paying
Sl.75 a day. A La Harpe reader,
though evidently not subscriber in
note which plainly evinced the writer's
belief that the REGISTER had deliber-
ately invented the paragraph, volun-
teered to quit borrowing and become
a subscriber to this paper if he could
be furnished the name ofany contractor
who was paying such wages The
REGISTER wrote to a friend at Ard
more, |. r., and the following in his
reply:
I'm reply to yours ofthe 18th: George
Graham, contractor on the Chocktaw.

She Believed the Clock

Mr.. Mcdonald, one of the Chanute
men at the Elks' meeting last night
told new story. 1t was of man
who reached home about 3 a. m. much
the worsefor wear. His sleepy wife
upbraided him for his late hours and
the way he treated her, mis- faithful and
loving spouse. He assured her it
wasn't late, only about IL o'clock.
She glanced in surprise at the clock
which said 3 "a. IN. Then she said
some more things. He feltlguilty and
fearful and finally broke out: "Now
my dear, if after all the kindness /
hive shown you during our welded
life, after all my love and care for
you, you are going at this late day to
begin refusing to take my word and
instead believe a darned little 81. Is

She had nothing to say.

be denounced as violators of the law,

business is legal and having paid for

Some Criminal Cussedness.

Saturday evening two young ladies
of Gas City were thrown from their
buggy and one of them so seriously
injured that she may die, all because
of the peculiar method one young man
had of showing his attentions. The
girls were Josie Hart and Kate Slush-
er and they were returning home from
lola. A young man drove up behind
them and as he started past he yelled
and fired off revolver. The horse
driven by the girls started and ran.
but they held onto the lines and finally
stopped him. Again the young man
whipped up behind them. BY that
time they had reached +. X. Taylor's $
corner and turned too sharply in their
haste to get away from him. The
buggy upset and both girls we're
thrown out. Miss Hart escaped with
slight in jury but Miss Slusher was so
dangerously injured that DR.. Brook
hart said he could not have saved
her life had he reached her ten min
utes later. She was unconscious all
night and is not yet out of danger.
