THE ..BLACK HILLS LIMITED.
Anew Fast Train From Chicago Over
The North Western.

There have been rumors and rumors
aaoat since the completion of the
Northwestern railways extension from
Pierre to the Hills and the establish.
ment of daily service to the east side
of the state. Some days ago it was
that the Northwestern
company was building new cars and
would furnish new train to be known
as the Black Hills Limited, operating
between Chicago and the Hills. This
train is to be the best equipped that
money can furnish and will be provid-
ed with Pullmans and diner.
It is now learned from what is con-
sidered reliable authority in railroad
circles that the road contemplates
making the route from the Hills to
Pierre through line for eastern points,
as soon as the bridge across the river
at Pierre is completed. The train from
Omaha. which now comes to the Hills,
will then go west from Chadron and a
local train will do the work from
Chadron to the Hills.
This is almost an assured fact. 1t is
known that the new route via Pierre is
shorter by nearly eighty miles than the
one now Travelled from the Black Hills
to Chicago and this would mean con-
siderable saving Of time. It is said
that the new through train service will
be established within sixty days

Big Prairie and Timber Fire.

The engine of the outgoing B. &. M.
train Monday afternoon set the grass
on fire along the right of way short
distance beyond Erskine. A strong
breeze sent the fire rapidly across Ed.
Hemminger's big pasture, destroying
big lot of hay for him, across the
head of Alabaugh canyon and out onto
the hills west of town, coming down to
Whaley canyon. The train crew and
section men went out at p. m. and
fought the fire with the help of town
people, backfring till IL o'clock when
it was thought the fire had been cut
off from more damage and the men
came in, the railroad boys being about
worn out as they had been without
ater or food since noon.
The wind shifted to the southwes
in the night and brought the fire in
towards town.
Frank jackson, who had been out
with others fighting fire all night,
brought in word Tuesday morning that
the fire was beyond local control, the
fire line being over three miles long.
Mayor Hargens telegraphed the B. & M.
officials for help and large crew was
sent from Edgemont who again got
the fire corralled. However, Fred
Dumke reported fire in the timber
burning hard Wednesday night just
south Of the Minnekahta road, east of
Ed. Hemminger's place, but rain
Thursday morning apparently settled
the flames for good. About eight
square miles of land we're burned over
and a large quantity of hay destroyed
besides the vast and excellent range
for stock ruined.

WONDERFUL CREW OF JAPs
Twelve Men From Mikado's Empire
Prove to Be Moran's Most
Efficient Workers.

Twelve little Japs, sturdy and strong,
form p. J. Morans most highly priced
crew of laborers. These little brown men
are now at work on Fourth South street
between Main and West Temple streets
distributing and laying the concrete for
the pavement base This work is perhaps
the hardest on the job. as the concrete
when it arrives from the mixer is a
heavy, soggy mass of rock and cement.
which after 1t is dumped has to be spread
over the street evenly and of a certain
thickness
This crew of Japs is employed at moth
ing else The men were picked for the
work last year by Moran. and are now ex-
perts in the art. AS soon as a wagonoad
arrives, all twelve men dig into it with
shovels, and the alacrity with which they
distribute the heavy mass is wonderful.
On the average of every five minutes d
wagon arrives, and before the next wagon
comes the pile left by the first has dis
appeared and the Japs are taking a short
rest.
As a general rule. Japs are not so eff
ficient as whites when working alone. but
when placed together in a crew and as
signed to certain duty, the character of
which they can learn by practice. the
little brown men show their dexterity and
strength in a marked manner.

SAY LABOR IS PLENTIFUL
Supply Is Equal to the Demand, As
sert Contractors Who Are Doing
Work for the City.

Apparently the expected labor shorta 20
in Salt Lake this summer has not mater
ialized. During all of last year, and espe-
cialiy during the summer months con-
tractors had great difficulty i'm securing
men, ami as consequence there was
considerable delay in carrying out public
improvements.
This year conditions are entirely diff
Gerent, and the contractors are usually
able to secure all the men they need In
speaking OF the conditions ]. w. Perez
val. the water main contractor, who has
been doing vast amount of work for the
city, said yesterday:
Il have experienced but little trouble
IN getting help. OF course, there are
days when my crews are depleted because
OF the non-appearance of the men whom

NhlCn contractors have had to contend

Finance Committee "lt."
A significant fact in connection with
the financial tangIe i'm which the city
has been placed is the referring of all
contemplated improvements to the
council finance committee whenever
the matter is brought before that body.
In the usual course of business when
the city is not broke" these matters
go 10 the street or engineering commit
tees. But these committees are now in
the background and the finance COM
mittee, with w. Mont. Ferry at its
head, is the whole show.
At the meeting last Monday evening
the recorder reported that the PROPOSE
ton to lay sidewalks in the district
known as extension No. 125, and bound
ed By First and Ninth South streets
and First West street and the Jordan
river, had been carried. and that it
was up to the council to take some ac-
uOn- Instead OF having the matter
referred to the engineering committee,
the finance committee was brought to
the front and the problem handed it on
a silver platter. The work will cost
$10S.000, of which the city must pay
$4,000 This is enough to explain why
the finance committee is considering il.
At a committee meeting two weeks
ago the finance committee recommend
ed that the board of public works be
authorized to let a contract for the
building of an addition to the cremato-
ry for $3.50. For some reason or other
the report has never reached the coun-
ell. and probably never will. Apparent
ly it was discovered that the city could
not afford this necessary work because
Of reckless extravaganza along other
lines.
