Northwestern Library Association. OF
Chicago, book concern through the
agency Of which person could get
books at very great reduction in
price. In order Go join the asSocia-
tion person paid one dollar and re-
ceiyed in exchange a certificate grant
ing the privilege OF membership. A
great many Joined the association,
lured 10y the promise of great reduc-
tionS In the price Of books. So far,
the members have been unable 20 get
the books that they have ordered nor
have they heard anything or the
money sent In to pay for such books.
We know OF several that have ordered
books, sending the money with the
order bat received in return not even
the courtesy OF a reply. No one at
Chicago seems 20 know Of the associ-
alton, so, until they are located, we'd
advise our patrons Ca keep their
money in their pockets. In justice to
Mr.. Nanmarter il is only fair To say
that ne knows nothing Of the firm and
was working on a commission, Supp0S-
ing that the association was all right.

GAMES OPEN AGAIN IN BUTTE.

After a cessation of operations cover
ing a period of nearly six months. open
gambling was resumed in Butte last
night. and at 2 o'clock this morning
the proprietors of the California club
rooms Messrs. Enright & Strong, ana
Of the Combination, comprising George
Kendall and Henry Albertson. were ar
rested by the city police. Each OF the
alleged offenders gave bond OF $ooo
and were released. Today the games
over which they have jurisdiction are
running full blast with good play.
These houses were the only ones open
ed but tomorrow King & Lowrys. the
NJ, & M. and other places will resume
business, so the proprietors say.
1t is not generally known that there
is no law by which player at game
can be punished but such Is a fact
Notwithstanding man named Larson
was fined $500 by Justice Shepherd at
Meaderville a few days ago Tor lnduig-
ing in game of poker.
There is another thing in connection
with the law that is not commonly
known. and that is that Justice OF
the peace has no power to handle case
of gambling. Today H. l.. Maury, OF
the law firm of Pemberton & Maury,
which is defending four or hve persons
charged with gambling, quoted the
clause in the penal code relating to the
jurisdiction of justices. 1t follows:
1.-THE justices courts shall have juris
diction of the following public oftenses
committed within their respective coun-
ties in which such courts are estab-
lished:
"First-Petit larceny.
"Second-Assault in the third degree,
as specified in Section 40e of this code.
.'Third-Breaches Of the peace. riots.
routs, ARRAYS, committing willful in
Jury to property, and all misdemeanors
punishable by fine not exceeding $500, or
Imprisonment not exceeding six months,
or both such fine and imprisonment.
''The district court has jurisdiction OF
all public offenses not otherwise pro-
vided for"
"Now, in this matter" said Mr.. Maury.
"the penalty for conducting a. gambling
game is a fine of from 500 to $1,000.
which takes a case Of this nature out OF
the hands of a justice. You see, the
operation Of gambling game is mis-
demeanor, for which the penalty pro-
vided is more than $500. and therefore
justice has no jurisdiction"
1.-THE other gambling houses would
open today" said a man In touch with
the games, "but you see all gamblers are
superstitious, and would moi open on
Friday for anything. They were not
ready for business last night. Even men
who play at the games are superstitious
Some will not play against certain per-
sons conducting the games. while Others
who play at roulette will not bet II the

Rumble, Goodwin and Jane called on Mrs
Fitz Butler last night and presented her
with handsome pearl handled gold

called upon by the organization and as
token of their appreciation of her
splendid accomplishments as a singer, to
make her this present. He expressed the
hope, which he said was shared in by
every son of St. George, that Mrs. Butler
would live long to wear the crown of
laurels which he said the music loving
people of Butte had long ago conceded
to her, He said that all Butte was proud
OF her and her accomplishment.
Mrs. Butler was greatly surprised and
delighted at the presentation She re-

County Attorney Talks.
County Attorney Breen says that last
night two persons called him up by tele-
phone and informed him that gambling
was in progress, but he could not get the
sheriff because that official was attend
ing meeting of the Elks and did not
escape until 2 o'clock this morning. II
have had several calls from persons to-
day asking me if l intended to take steps
to stop the deal. I know what the pro-
position is. The big houses are to pay
the city $500 month and run under po-
lice protection, but this money is to all
come out of those who cannot afford to
lose it,"
DO you intend to attempt to stop the
games?" was asked.
eff the police department and county
officials pull together they can stop it
that quick" said the official giving his
fingers a snap.
I'VE propose to have some kind of an
understanding and If the police depart
ment does not take kindly to 1t the coun-
ty will pull alone. AS to the justice court
cases, where gambler pleads guilty it il,
all right, but it is fact that a justice OF

NEW TIME PIECE FOR BUTTE

There is now at least one accuratentiime

A particular feature Of the clock is that
1t has an electric adjunct. 1t is connect

is regulated every hour. Thus should the

TO REN0vATE THE CITY HALL
Building Committee Will Recommend
Many Needed Improvements to
the City Council.

Judging from the manner in which the
building committee of the CITY coun-
Gil took hold of the citv hall question at
its Meeting last night. 1t Is probable
that arrangements will soon be under
way to convert the apartments Of the
city officials and those in the Jail into
quarters at least respectable enough for
occupancy during office hours.
The decision of the committee was to
the effect that the entire building from
cellar to dome is a disgrace to Butte.
The Jail, Notwithstanding Jailer Sol
Levy's untiring efforts to give it at least
a presentable appearance. is still hole
of filth and dirt which can only be re-
moved by a thorough renovation.
On one side of the corridor is located
the den wherein the men prisoners are
held. Murderers. hold-ups, Migrants,
opium fends. drunkards. and those held
on suspicion of crime are all given quar-
tiers together. Immediately across the
corridor is an apartment. slightly better,

on the old terms, and the offer was
made. Manager Gillie of the Butte &
Boston told them he would take them
they would guarantee to not create any
more friction. but they did not then say
whether they would accept the situa
ton. In fact, the terms set forth by M
Gillie had to be submitted to the union
For the purpose of hearing the result
of the conference, meeting Of the union
was held at 10 o'clock this morning, but
up to o'clock this afternoon Manager
Gillie had not been appraised of the de-
ciSion. if any, at which the union ar
rived.
The same routine was gone. through
by the effected employees at the Colorado
plant 1t is understood that the strike
of the machinists figures in the Colorado
smelter trouble. but. the prospects are
good for an early settlement on that
score. There were only two machinisis
employed at the Colorado, and they are
reported to have left the city, one hav-
ing gone to Colorado and the other east.
The gist of the whole situation Is just
this: The smelters are closed down, and
when they are started again it will be
under the old condition, with a guar
antee from the men that there will be
no more trouble on account of the hours
of work. This is the ultima tum of the
companies. AS to the shut-out en-
pfoyes. the majority of them want to
return to work. and are willing to make
concessions in order to do SO.
