Survey for Milwaukee.

Butte, Dec. 29.-Confirmation is Civ
en- the announcement made recently
that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul railroad is going to build through
this city, by the presence OF Assistant
Chief Engineer w. H. Penfield, who
arrived in Butte last week on busi-
ness connected with the extension.
While Mr.. Penfield is extremely re-
ticient about discussing the affairs of
the Milwaukee road and the particu-
lar business that brought him to this
city, yet it is known that he is here
for the purpose of looking over the
country with a view of selecting the
route by which the road will enter
Butte.
When seen, Mr.. Penfield firmly de-
clined to give out any statement re-
garding his business in this city. Il

city, is only about Is miles north of it
and that the Martinsdale-W White Sui
phur Springs route of the Milwaukee
road will not zigzag over Is miles to
line from Miles City to Helena. At
White Sulphur Springs II would lind a
most advantageous point for the con-
struction of spur to Livingston and
the Yellowstone park, for the valley
of Shields river offers a natural and
facile route to the gateway of the ma
tional reservation.
THE advantages of building in this
direct line to Helena are not all in the
rich regions traversed, in the direct
ness Of the line or in the great tonnage
of freight which originates in Helena
and which comes to the central and
capital city. The Milwaukee will find
feasible and incalculably rich field
in building from Helena to Butte by
going up Ten Mile canyon to Remini
and thence via Basin to Butte. This
is the route selected for the Montana
Central by Rodgers, the famous rail
way engineer, who afterwards dis
covered Kicking Horse pass for the
Canadian Pacific. Passing along the
range from Rimini to Basin, the Mil
waukee will open up one of the larg-
est low grade ore belts in the United
States and arrive at Butte by the
shortest and least difficult route.

THURSDAY CLUB BAS
INTERESTING SESSION

The Thursday Club was addressed at
its meeting last night by Rev. G. d,
Edwards, pastor of the Christian
Church. upon christianity and its
Force in Character Building The
gentleman spoke extemporaneously,
and with a strength and earnestness
that carried conviction, and his hear
ers appreciated his remarks very
greatly.
Following the address of the evening,
Archdeacon Jeferis gave an exhibition
of stereopticon slides. beginning with
views taken in Egypt, for the most part
by himself, running through Japan and
a part of Manchuria and ending with
some gorgeous cloud scapes taken in
Hawaii. One of these the speaker call
ed the most beautiful picture he had
ever seen, and it was very beautiful
Mr.. Jefferis had a particularly in
teresting lot of Japanese pictures,
something out of the ordinary because
they were the pictures he had seen
himself in conventional places, and
of the island of the Amos, the Hairy
People and of the Amos themselves.
These people, supposed to be the abo
rhymes of Japan, are seldom pictured
and but little is known of them. Mr.,
Jefferis had seen them and caught
them with his camera in their homes.
with results that are of real human
interest.

LADIES' DAY
FOR BA7HTUB

NORFOLK, (Neb), January Is
Center, Neb., town of 200 people, in
Knox county, and the county seat Of
that county, now boasts of a bathtub.
1t is the first bathtub in that town,
and was installed a few days ago
by a local barber. Rivalry existed be-
tween the men and women at first
over the days upon which the women
should be allowed to use the new tub,
but the mater has been settled peace
fully, and the women are to battle on
Thursdays of each week.
A local paper, the Center Register,
contained this item a few days ago:
I'VE are requested to announce to the
ladies OF Center that Thursday will be
ladies' day at the new bathroom in
Saunders Hotel Annex None but la
dies will be allowed to battle on that
day, and they are invited to take ad-
vantage OF the new tub. Every cour-
tesy will be shown patrons.

MOTHS THESE
chronological Society
Holds an interesting
Session.

An interesting meeting, although the
/ interest was almost entirely technical,
of the chronological Society was held
at the Bureau of Agriculture and For
estry last night, President Robert c..
l.. Perkins being in the chair The
meeting opened with the transaction
of some routine business, and then Sec
rotary Jacob Kotinsky showed the
members present some magnificent
specimens of the emperor moth, 'Pla-
tysamia cecropia) Matched at the gov
eminent station from cocoons import
ed from Maryland by Thee. Davis of
the United States Marine Hospital Ser
vice. When the cocoons of these moths
came by mail, Consulting EntomoIogist
Alexander Craw heard of the importa-
ton and informed Mr.. Davis that they
would not be permitted here Mr.. Davis
at once gave Mr.. Craw an order on
the postmaster for the package and
the cocoons We're taken out and hatch
ed at the government station-and at
once killed.
They are resting on pins in hand
some box, now, and look for all the
world like some gorgeous bits of trim
ming for woman's hat. They are pur
pie and silver and mouse colored, with
red and golden half moons and bands
upon them, and each insect, with out |
spread wings, is as large as a small |
mans hand. They are worth going |
n he tn a of |
fact. The moths come from cocoons
about the size of hens eggs, and spin I
a kind of silk that is commercially of
no value.
After the moths had been shown,
Prof. Perkins said that he was going
away soon, and would designate G.. w,
assistant entomologist at the
planters experiment station, to act
as vice president of the society in his
absence. Prof. Perkins is going for a
vacation, and will visit England be-
fore his return, it is understood.
AS the event of the evening Prof
Perkins read a technical paper on the
Bugs of Tantalus, saying among other
Kings that were not technical that
he mountain was hardly as good a
ground now as it used to
DC DeCdUSc So IiIdLy pSOple Iiou
houses there and introduced strange
,ugs from other regions. These have
rowded the natives to the wall, rather.
One interesting incident of bug-hunt-
ng on Tantalus Prof. Perkins related
when he told of the capture of most b,
bright red moth, very dis
inctive in it's organization, the plu-
ia pterylotis, of which he had seen
of those he L
lad taken and the other was so ragged
hat he had rejected it, thinking he
ould easily find more fitting about in
he sunshine. And the one he had
aiken, which was now in the British
nUseum, was the only specimen known
o be in existence in the world.

Che-Fa Banks Still Run
Despite the Grand
Jury.

| 1t is not true that Amin told the
grand jury that he is running a che-fa
game. AS a matter of fact, he did
| not have to. And Amin did most
| of his talking outside, which had con-
| sequences to him unforeseen and not
altogether pleasant. But Amin was
| before the grand jury nearly all day
yesterday. and was in rather a limp
and dilapidated condition when he
came out and was hailed Immediately
into court on his second contempt
charge
This grand jury, in fact is finding
out more things about che-fa than
have ever been known before to any
body outside the combination, and it
is being materially assisted in it's hunt
for information by the boldness of the
gamblers in running their games in
open defiance of it
Of course the games are being run
in open defiance of the police, too. but
that is easy. No policeman dares ar
rest che-fa agent or banker without
orders. The policeman has a regard
for his own job. And the orders do
not come, although the banks are run
ming, drawings being held twice day,
and one of the afternoon papers yes
terday printed the winning word for
the day.
Che-fa, by the way, is a game that |
yields enormous profits to the bankers. /
For instance, II is SAID that there is
each week run well up into the thous-
ands. A business as profitable as that /
can afford to pay a pretty stiff price
to be assured of safety from interior
ence.
The main evil of the thing is that
che-fa is played by poor natives and
others who need all their money 10
buy the necessaries of life and who,
when they do make a winning, are
ed into extravagances and to gamble
more in the hope that they can win
again. 1t is like the lottery evil used
o be, and is yet in measure in Cali
'ornia, and the policy games among
"iiC 6ioCo anu pun WHITES VI Tic
eastern cities. And it would not be {
1t all surprising, in view of the diff
,ulty the local authorities meet in
lealing with it, if the United States
we're presently to take a hand. Then
he-fa would stop-or its play would
'e attended with such difficulties that
is spread would be strongly discour I
ged- Certainly the gamblers would
lot dare to run openly while Federal
'rand jury was after them-and if )
Amin ever got in the way of Federal
curt process he would realize more
,eenly than he does now that he had
'een in a fight. There is some reason
o believe that he begins to realize that
lie is up against the real thing now.
In the meantime. the grand jury is
.ritting it's teeth and going ahead. 1t
hould be ready to show it's teeth in
he matter of indictments today.

PURE WATER FOR CHILDREN.

The Superintendent announced to
the Board the release of Antoine Fer

school.
The superintendent s transfer of the
land at the corner of Wilder avenue
and Punahou street to the Superinten-
dent of Public Works, upon condition
that it be used only as a public park,
was approved.

Of the Civic Federation asked the
Board to use its best endeavors to Sc

Superintendent was instructed to in

Federation TO use its best efforts to
induce the Legislature at its next
session to make an appropriation for
the purpose.

expressed his view that there was
