one of the well-equipped desks in the

formed officer stepped UP and said:
You can't write that ERE, SIR"
The American apolosized, removed to
another desk, and had barely grabbed
his pen a second time when another Off

q You can't write that ere, sir"
l.; The American betook himself to third
desk. A third officer appeared and told
him he couldn't write at that desk.
In heavens name," asked the Ameri-

The officer looked puzzled. His sure

Prospectors Wintering Out of Town

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, Dec. 17.-One of the most
interesting sights to the uninitiated at
this season of the year, is to see the
miners and prospectors purchasing their
supplies 70 rthe winter and incidentally
laying in a few extras for Christmas
cheer. For the past few weeks they have
been thick at every store and provision
house buying hams, sides of bacon.
canned goods, dried fruit and various
other things that would go to show that
the miners, wintering in the snow-bound
hills. have larder plentifully supplied
with good things to eat.
They also. as rule. take out large
and varied assortment of reading mat
ter. Old magazines saved for them by
friends. dime novels. cheap editions OF
standard works. no difference what it is
SO long as it will help to pass away a
dreary hour.

cheap edition of popular encyclopedia

CITY ORDINANCES PRINTED.
Citizens Can Now Keep Posted on tn
Laws
Especial to Inter Mountain.)

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, Dec. 1.-THE so copies Of
the city ordinances ordered printed by the
city council some time ago. the contract
for which was awarded to the. Inter
Mountain, have been delivered to the
city clerk and copies of the same We're
yesterday placed in the hands of the
various city officials.
Up to this time the city has not had
its ordinances in tangible shape SO that
they could be at the command of the Off
Gals at the city hall or the general pub
lie.
There were two or three incomplete
typewriter copies scattered about town,
one copy of which sufficed for all the
minions of the law quartered at the city
hall, including the members of the city
council.
AS result the members of the latter
body have often worked in the dark in
bringing up measures for consideration,
and oftentimes it has been a difficult
matter to determine whether or not legis-
lation proposed was not in conflict with
ordinances already enacted.
At any rate. the city officials have been
greatly handicapped heretofore for the
reason that the city ordinances were
never in shape so that they could be
readily consulted.
Now it is different, and every alderman
will have one of the books upon his desk
at each council meeting, lawyers and
business men will have copy that can
be gotten at handily and thus keep posted
on the laws that govern the municipality.

penalty is prescribed for all violations
of the ordinance inflicted by licensed
dealers.
Ordinance Grossly Defective.
Nothing is said about what shall be
done with a person who engages in the
junk business without licene and in
fact, according to City Attorney Sawyer
nothing can be done with such persons
for the reason that the ordinance is
grossly defective.
'"The ordinance as it now stands"
stated the city attorney, lis all right in
so far as it applies to persons who take
out a license.
"If a man does have a license issued to
him he certainly gets his foot into 1t,
but the police are powerless to do any
thing with the dealer who goes about
his business without license.
1.-The junk men are getting onto the
deficiencies of the ordinance and unless
it is modified by the council the city
will be unable to collect a cent of license
from these men,"
The present ordinance was approved
November 6, 1899, but up to short time
ago it's efficacy was never questioned.
Probably an amendment will be intro
duced at the next council session.

Speaking of the life one of them said
yesterday: I'VE are not as lonesome and
isolated as some people would think. We
are never in position that we cannot
get out and make a few neighborly calls
and when we do, we sometimes stay
three or four days. Then again some of
us stay in the hills because we cannot
afford to come to town. Then we some
times club together and spend the winter
very enjoyably
There are lots of musicians in the
hills and we have music and songs and
the like to our hearts content -
LAS a rule we try to have plenty Of
reading matter and when the holidays
come around we get together and have
our good time just the same as though
we were in the heart of settlement
Oh, it's all right. l like it or l wouldn't

but lay around, but / think l paid weV

Central Labor Council Took Action
Last Night
Especial to Inter MOuntain.)

Especial to Inter Mountain.) h
Anaconda, Dec. 17-At meeting of the
Central Labor council of Anaconda last
night. that body after lengthy copsd-
Grafton of the matter decided to oppose
the formation of militia company in
this city, and appointed committee to
notify the press of the united action.
Representing as it does about 5000
men, the action of the labor council will
bear considerable weight upon the or
ganizaton of the company in this city,
for if the union men are prohibited from
joining it may be hard matter to make
the company complete.
Actions similar to this have been taken
in all parts of the country, and organized
labor as a body seems to be against the
maintenance of state militia.

Theater on Thursday.

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
1.-THE Burgomaster," the musical com.
edy that has scored one of the most
emphatically popular triumphs of the
season, will be presented at the Mar

and it's humor never descends to
mediocrity; in other words, it is most
unusual feats of wit. beauty and song
that will tickle the palates of the most
fastidious. The great craving of the
American public for something new"
has found ample satisfaction in 1.-The
Burgomaster; the sayings are new, the
situations new, the dances are new. the
scenery and costumes new and the cast
is par excellence. In fact the whole
piece is surrounded by brillance Of
tone, color and motion that is a positive
revelation to all admirers of clever hui
NOR, catchy music and fascinating en-
belishments. On account of the stores
remaining open late the curtain will not
rise until 9 o'clock.
