bEt others have doubts. At all events,
the young woman who. with a number
of others. was engaged in serving tho
boys, noticed this little boy way off at
one end Of the table. Many of his lar
ger fellows were already hard ut work
on the various good things, but this lit
tie fellow had evidently been neglected.
Clearly here was a ease of urgent char
ity, so the amateur waitress flew to his

he did not lack for anything. Plate
after plate OF turkey was literally
showered upon him. Finally. as she
set another piece Of plum pudding in

Mustn't ..oun. Their Engines.

The railroad engineer who owns
his engine Is net in favor with his SUI
periors. Complaints about trivial mat
tiers are likely to be made against him,
and soon he finds himself without a
berth. The phrase "owniag an engine
does net mean that the engineer has
acquired title to his iron horse. The
expression iS used OF a ma who has
been with Il certain engine so long that
he becomes II part OF 1t. He knows its
every PECULIARLY. he feels it's every
protest against Il heavy load, and he
nurses it and coddles 1t as il 1t were
his child. He disiikes to run the en-
CINE 1T top speed for fear something
will happen to 1t. and in consequence
his train is frequently behind time. He
takes Il grade at half the rate he should.
and he run cautiously down hill. In
a word. he owns" his engine.
OF course this Is all very nice and
idyllic. and it Is the kind of thing a
person likes TO read about in stories Of
the railroad. Eu. plain, practical raj.
road men look ut II differently. They
argue that the best engineer is the man
who fails to run his train accord
ing to his running time. the man who
Is never behind and seldom ahead. SO
It III about that the engineer who
makes a master Of that which should
be his servant wonders who has a
grudge against him. But 1t isn't 4
srudge; It's business New York Mail
and Express.

BACTERIA AND BUTTER.
Friends of the Eairynaa During the
EiDeninE Process.

'@% - - AAAN
EiDeninG Process.
Bacteria are friends to the butter
maker through their assistance to him
in ripenilg cream, says Professor w.
IL. Conn in The American Agricultur-
list. Ripencd cream gives a larger
amount of butter than cream not ripen-
ed. 1t churns more easily and pro-
duces better favored butter. Butter
made from sweet cream is quite fat in
flavor and aroma. 4 good flavor in
butter win make a difference of . and
) cents per pound and sometimes more,
and this favor is developed simply as a
result of the ripening.
The cream is placed for ripening at a
warm temperature for "a hours or
more, during which period the bacteria
have become very numerous and have
produced various chemical changes,
giving rise to products of special taste
II aroma. 1t makes Il great differ
ence whether the cream at the outset is
filled with one or another species of
bacteria. One class produces favors
which give a high grade az hntter :
second class does nor ofr4ct tho hnttor

NEW DREDGE.

hoped to he very important mining
deal says the Madisonian. James NJ.

in company with Thomas +. Pollard, DR..
I utz and l.. p. Sichler. all of Red Lodge.
have. during the past two years, been
quietly at work securing a large num-
heI of claims until they now have over
twelve miles Of placer ground on Clarks
Fork. They have done some develop
nlent work and have prospected the
ground sufficiently to know that it con-
tains gold in paying quantities if prop
tily worked.
About a year ago James Garrison
made a trip to Bannack to see Messrs.
Craeter and Graves, of the Chicago
Dredging and Development company,
fer the purpose Of interesting that COM
pany in the project of putting dredges
OF. the ground. \ representative of
thai company recently visited and
made quite 4 thorough examination of
Tho ground, and he found it to he much
more promising than was represented to
him 10y MI Garrison. 1t seemed that
the only drawback to the Chicago COM
lany taking hold of the scheme at once
was the fact that the promoters did not
hold all of the twelve miles unnterupt-
euly. With unquenchahla faith in the
enterprise they set quietly 10 work to get
control of the claims which caused the
IL .!!e.
While Mr.. Sichler was in the city he
stated that that obstacle was about to
be removed. It is expected that before
spring opens the Chicago people will be
constructing a dredse. If the ground
proves TO lie as rich in gold as the pros
pectine has indicated, these gentlemen
will realize q nice little fortune for their

the TAX IS ILLEGAL
AND THE SCHOOL BOARD DE-
CIDED SPRINKLING BILL
SHOULD NOT BE PAID.

The school board last night decided
that it would not pay the city sprink-
ling bill of Sis and the matter will
probably be adjudicated in the courts.
The action of the board was taken
on the advice of County Attorney Breen
who holds that the tax is illegal as
school property is not subject to such
tax Mr. Breen's predecessor also ad-
vised the board that the tax was illegal
but before the board had definitely taken
action in the matter AIR. Breen was
elected to the position of county attor-
ney and his views We're asked.
In the past the school board has al
ways paid the city for Sprinkling the
streets in front of school property but
last July decided that it was not re-
sponsible for the bill. County Attorney
Breen in passing on the subject sub
mitted lengthy opinion and cited many
supreme court opinions to sustain the
position he took. He said that the city
held it was simply and purely an as
sessment for work performed and not
a tax in the full meaning of the word
and was a just and legal claim against
the school district. While some OF the
eastern courts had sustained this posi-
ton and had decided in favor of the
cities doing the work, the majority of
decisions sustained the position taken
10y the board in declaring the tax an
illegal one.
While the matter is in court the
chances are that the city will refuse to
sprinkle the streets in front of theschools
when warm weather arrives and the
dust !; bad.
Superintendent Young reported that
the semi promotion ceremony
would take place next Friday afternoon,
at which time 1875 pupils would go into
the eighth grade. The supreintendedtre-
, ported that the average daily attendance
in the schools is 4.943: average number
belonging. 5172: total enrolment, 6,479.
