COUNTY SEAT WILL
HEAR MALE CHORUS

The Grasston Male chorus, under
the direction of A. r. Westrom, will
give concert at the M. E. church
in Pine City on Wednesday evening,
Oct. Z. The chorus has been making
fine record for itself having been
highly praised by music critics in the
cities where. it has appeared. On
Labor day the chorus met with some
$50 other Swedish singers in a song
festival at Center City where the
Northwestern Division of Swedish
singers held its annual gathering.
Undoubtedly the chorus will draw a
large crowd as the church in which
they will sing at Pine City is well
adapted to a program of this kind.

James expressed the opinion that
a plan for conservation of the
Rosebud water would be feasible,
and that the improvement could
be made at no great expense, eth
er to the government or the water
users of the county. Water from
the Rosebud, however. could be
used to supply only that section
below Red Lodge creek.
Possibilities on Rock creek are
greater, as a conservation system
installed south of Red Lodge might
guarantee all farmers below a
full, constant flow of water dur

tween Platte and Broadway, west
on Sixteenth street, north on Hau-

Branch lines. or local taps, are
to be connected to the main loop,
extending along the various streets
ard allies Two.inch pipe is being
used for the tap lines, of which
ST. 900 feet will be laid. Collars,
or intersection points, are being
welded into the tap lines for the
joining of individual service lines.
As the bitches are dug, lengths
of pipe are being strung cut along
the trenches, welded together and
covered with protective paint.
Complete sections are lowered IN
10 the bitches, and tested with
compressed air at a pressure of
50 pounds before the trenches are
filled in.
In the digging of the trenches,
il has been noted that the gas lines
approach the city water mains IN
some places, and in some sections
are to be laid over the water pipes.
As much as possible. however, the
construction surveyors are at
tempting to avoid all interference
with city fixtures, and TO conform
TO personal wishes on the part of
householders in making necessary
changes in the routing of the
mains. The gas lines viii not
cause freezing Of the city water
pipes at points where the two are
in proximity, say engineers. At
the point where the line crosses
the pavement of Broadway, a tun-
nell will be dug under the concrete
to avoid the tearing up of the
pavement.
A regulating system is under
construction at the point where
the tap line from Dry Greek en-
ters the city at the north end OF
Platte street. Gas coming from
the oil field, at pressure of 15t
pounds to the square inch, will be
eased down to a pressure of 10 tt
IS pounds before it is transferred
to the city pipes.

Development work prompted by the
discovery Of pitch copper at the Fools
berg lease in the Star Meadows sec
ton, near here last week, has re-
vealed large quantities of the ore IN
a vein which has increased from eight
inches to three feet in width
! The mineral exists in strip within
an eight-foot vein and is said to con-
tain 10 per cent copper and small
amount of gold. Since the visit OF DR..
Francis A. Thomson, president OF the
school OF mines, who identified the ore
as pitch copper, work has been carried
forward with renewed activity and
the operators expect to ship car OF
the mineral to the smelter at Ana
conda this week. 1t will be trucked
from the mine to the loading bins at
Lupfer on the main line OF the Great
Northern railroad -Kalispell Monitor.
