BIG MILL SHUTS DOWN
FOR WINTER
LOGGING CAMPS, TOO, EXCEPT
GEO. HARPER'S-WILL PROB.
ABLY RESUME IN SPRING.

The Anaconda Copper Mining COM
pany sawmill in Hamilton and logging
camps, excepting George Harper's
camp on Lick creek, were closed down
last evening
superintendent Totman stated last
night that while the shutdown had
been contemplated for some time or
ders to do SO were not received till q
p. m. yesterday. The logging train
will continue to deliver logs for a
couple of weeks, filling the pond pre-
paratory for next seasons run. Mr..
Totman stated that he thought the
mill would resume about March 1.
Last year the mill ran all winter
but during the past summer the de-
mand for lumber has been very slug
glsh and an immense stock has ac-
cumulated. Hence, according to Mr..
Totman, the company. would rather
have the timber standing in the trees
than piled up in the yards"
1t may be, too, that the recent for
est fires may have had some connec-
ton with the shutdown. Immense
tracts of timber, estimated at six bill
lion feet, in addition to that that was
consumed by the flames, were badly
scorched and while still standing must
be disposed of within the next two
years. The Anaconda company. it is
reported, has about one hundred mil
lion feet of scorched timber on the
Blackfoot that must be consumed.
None of the Anaconda company's
timber in the Bitter Root was dam
aged by the fires. This timber is all
in fine condition and the damaged
goods must go first

Hospital Sunday.
Collection to be Taken at All the
Churches Next Sunday.

Special effort is being made to make
more of Hospital Sunday and thus bring
help to very worthy enterprise.
Next Sunday is the day when all can
aid with large and small sums in making
the collection a record breaker. The
pastors of the churches will preach SER
mons apropos of the occasion. Laymen
will also give during the service FIVE
minute statements as to the needs OF the
hospital as follows:
First Baptist church, DR.. W. J. Aldrich;
Universalist church. DIR. E. H. Ross;
Episcopal church, DIR. c. A. Cramton;
South church, Hon. Alexander Dnnnett;
Methodist church, Joseph Fairbanks;
North church, Frank II. Brooks.
There will also be lay speakers at the
Main Street Baptist church and Advent

Next Lords Day will be a good time
to go to church and catch the hospital
spirit. The offering will be taken for the
benefit of the fund the Ladies' Aid associ-
alton is raising that free bed memorial
fund may some day be established.
Nothing should appeal more to church and
non-church people than fund that
will help those deserving aid and without
which many lives are lost. Let all come
to church next Sunday with heart and
purse strings wide open.
