trect Telegraph company will shortly

and that the newly approved return.
I system is to be used; also that some
sprovements in our local exchange,
hich is the third largest in the state,
to be made.
It was learned here yesterday that the
n would make its last trip to Nei
art today. running only to Monarch
d Harker in the future. The reason
r this is said to be due to the trouble

Charles 0. Parmsons, who recently colm
plated the purchase of the Cumberland
mine at Castle. for eastern parties, re
turned yesterday. He says the mine
never looked better. Owing to the bad
condition of the road from Lewistown
which interferes with the freightiag of
coke from Cokedale to Castle, the Yel
lewetone smelter has been forced to shut
down and Mr. Parsons .ays he is afraid
the other smelter will not be able to run
nY andy a longer it the transporta
tion faltit are not improved. Said
de "If any mine needs a railroad t is the

dial' .
Thursday was a hillsy day for the tire
department. It was cailed out three
times, twic. to put out tires and once on
a false alarm. About n::30 yesterdlay
morning there was a great blowing of I
whistles at the BI. &. . nmelter which(
someone construed as meaning a fire at '
the dam. and accordingly turned in an 1
alarm. Then the fire bell began to ring
and the department hurried to the sceue 1
of the supposed conflagration, only to
learn it was a false alarm. The whistles
had been started blowing in celebration ti
of the arrival of a carload of ore from I
Butte. The switch engines commenced -
and then the smelter whistle took up
the refrain until the very hills echoed
with the glad tidings. After returning
from their wild goose chase the boys I
went to the hose house. answered to
the roll-call, and then resumed their i
various avocations.
About halt past ten the tire bell sound
ed again. This time it was a fire all
right and it was in iichardson's carpen
ter shop on Fourth avenue south. The
department made good time in getting
to the fire and had it all out in a few
minutes after they arrived. The build
ing is a two-story frame with a carpenter
shobp down stairs and a glazing room tip
stairs. The fire started in the first story
where there was plenty of combustible
material in the shape of shavings and
seasoned finishing lunmber. Fed on enlch
mnaterial it spread rapidly, and by the
time it had been extinguished the
carpenter shop was pretty well
gutted. Richardson was seen after
the tire and when asked what was his
loss he placed it at Klt)0, comprising
mostly toola, send and tarred paper andl
Idamage to the building. which he owns.
He says he was fully insured. tie also
lost a number of architects' plans, which
r he said he would have to make good.
When asked how the tire started he re
plied in the stove, whicth seems rather
,odd. as few shops need to have it fire in
this warm weather. IRichardson saidt
they kept a flre in the store to keep the
putty used in glazing in a soft condition.
The impression was pretty general
around town that the tire was of an in
:enltdiary origin. in fact some of the hire
1 mii said the stove was as cold as stone
by the time the tire in the shiop had
-been extinguished. The department
wetrce called out a third time aboutt 9 last
night to put out tanother fire in Richard
satn's shop, wihich beyond a doubt was of
an incendiary origin. t11 started in thte
glass store house back of the shop. but
was extinguished beforl any anitumit of'
idamage was done. This Ibuilding is
always kept locked. but iItheli tlh
firemen arrived they founil the door ull
locked. (icthardsonti, who claimedlt tol
have opened tlhe door and discovered tilte
tire was immediately arrested and icu- I

ec his innocence. but wits refused histi

One Pure Baking Powder.
Like Telling a Secret.
A story is told and it is a true story that over seventy
per cent. of all the baking powders sold contain either alum
or ammonia, and many of these powders contain both. The
ill effects upon the system of food raised by alum or ammo.
nia powders are the more dangerous because of their insidious
character. It would be less dangerous for the people were it
fatal at once, for then such food would be avoided, but their
baneful action because imperceptible at first and slow in its
advances, is no less certain.
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is declared by all
authorities as free from alum, ammonia or any other adul
terant. Its purity has never been questioned, and while it
does finer and better work, it costs no more at retail than
many of the adulterated powders.

The American District Telegraph l
compi)any has completed arrangements
for the operation of a messenger service
in this city. The construction of the
line will begin at once. most of the mla
terial having arrived Wednesday.and the
woirk Nill be pushed to completliion with
all dispatch. The plant to be Iput in in
this city is to be equal in every respect
to any in the west, the incorporators o
the company rea'izing the future growt f
and prosperity of the city.
Mr. I..P. Atkinson is president of the
nIw enterprise: II. Soummers, of Helena,
vice president, and .John P).1)yas will le I
secretary andl have the mIanagement of
the service in chlarge. The names of
these gentlemen are a guarantee that
the new enterprise will be a success in 1
every term of the word.
The latest improved return-call boxes
will be used and some two hundred will
be placed in the business houses, office
and residences on the start. It is safe
to predict that soon after the operation i
of the line this number will be doubled.
The call-boxes to subseribers will
range in price from 87.50O to '20, accord
ing to the number of calls on each box.
For instance, a four-call-box will call z
"messenger." "police and special" and I
"carriage." The number of calls in a
box can be increased to eleven. The
boxes will be furnished at actual cost
and there is to be no further charge for <
rentals, the subscriber playing for actual
service, as ordered, only. The business
and professional men of Great Falls will
be solicited at once as regards to their
subscriptions and they can designate the
number of calls required by them and
the boxes will be made according to the
order given. This new enterprise will
till a long felt want in this city, the gen
tlemen interested in the same and the
company's officers thoroughly under
stand their business andt its success will
be gratifying to them for the investnment
which they are Inaking.

'The board of trade imet at I 'clojek
Wednesday afternoon. The chairman ot
the executive committete being absent
no report from that body was received.
Robert Vaughn of the committee on
roads reported progress in the matter of
the Augusta road. Mr. Gibson called
attention to the road from Barker to the
Judith basin. The board of county com
missioners of Meagher county appropri
ated last year $2.000 to build a road from
Ba ker to the summit of the range on
the condition that persons interested is
the Wolf creek region would build the
road down the eastern slope. They have
begun work on the western part of the
road. If the road is built on the easters
slope the people of Utica, Ubet, and
other towns will see that the old road
into the Judith basin is reopened. Mr.
Gibson thought that the people of Great
Falls could well afford to put some
money into the road on account of the
trade that would come to Great Falls
from the .Judith basin. Mr. Chandler
stated that there was in all only about
nine miles of road to build. Of this six
miles will be built by Meagher county,
leaving only about three Wiles to be
built. It would make a much shorter
haul for the farmers of the Judith basis
and would undoubtedly bring a large
volume of trade from that section. The
road could be built for a comparatively
small amount. The question was re
ferred to the executive committee.
C. M. Webster announced that he had
received letters inquiring about the
feasibility of putting in a broom factory
and also a shoe factory. Mr. Cornelius
thought the latter was a good proposi
tion as the men in the smelters use a
great many coarse shoes.
I )r. Crutcher asked whether sometlhing
could not be done to secure better rail
road rates for conventions. Mr. Mc
Donald also asked whether some action
could not be taken looking to the obtain
ing of Ietter rates for theatre troupes.
G;reat Falls is now shut out from obtain
ing conventions or large troupes for the
reason that favorable rates cannot be
se.cured from the Montana Central. On

tary was instructed to lay the matter he

-Mr. I l,,bins suggested that an in
portant question to (4reat Falls and
lltaoa is the taxation of irrigation
ditches. Such ditches are taxedon their
cost ant Iot ,i their worth. It often
happened that ; long ditch costing a
great deal more than a shorter ditch, yet
du1es not irrigate any more land. is
not worth any more than the short
ditch. vet it pays a much higher tar.

men who are interested in keeping back
the agricultural development of the state.
That is the way the government does
things. The work of disseminating
knowledge of Montana must be done by
her own people. One way in which good
work can be done is in the dissemination
of literature showing the resources of
Montana during the World's fair. This
would be Montana's opportunity and
one she should take advantage of. On
the motion cf Mr. Harris, the question
of properly advertising the resources of
Montana at the World's fair was refer
red to the executive committee with in
structions for a prompt report.
Mr. Robbins also suggested that a
small exhibit of Montana's products
should be placed in the deplot to attract
the attention of travelers. IReferred to
