William Fuller occupied the chair and J. 11. 1'aul was tho secretary. Tho history of the water main taxes was referred to and there is uo mistake that the citieus present mean business. Remarks were made by Messrs. Spiers, Saunders, Wilier, Mussor, Hilton, Dun-cau- , Stirling, Kudd, Paul, Fuller and others. Messrs. Spiers.

AT THE WARM SPRINGS. Hank Barnee li (letting In Ult Spleadla Work. "We are doing great work out at the Warm Springs," volunteered Hank Barnes, the hero of many a clam bake, this morning, "and when we open the doors of our new bath.houses and res-taurant it will be a place lit for the gods and nymphs to disport themselves in. Workmen aro now tearing down the old buildings and excavating for the new bath houses which will contain fourteen private plunge rooms, each twelve and a half feet square. Tho large swimming plunge will be some-thing very splendid iu its way, and bo 115x80 feet in si.e. This will be cov-ered by a building which is not such an architectural atrocity as I hose generally seen in constructions of this character. The principal bath house will contain twenty rooms in which will be au equal number of por-celin- o tubs; the rooms being finished in polished mahogany. The boys' plunge has already been built and is now in use. The old building where the oflieo is wilThe renovated and improved in a comnination of architectural effects and be used as a restaurant. After all these things aro completed Turkish and Russian baths will bo put in, hut not until Mr. Barnes has visited Cali-fornia and the eastern states to inspect some very lately invented systems which have been recently brought to his notice.

It never will pay, however, until l hero is some inauifcst consideration for the public wants. I'ut a passenger service on at imi o, and let the hauling of ico and duck hunters hereafter play a subordinate part iu the programme. l'rovo Inquirer. A movement is on foot to disincor-porate tho Cache County Cow Fa-tu-company. This company was organized many years ago, and owned a large tract of" land M est o! Logan, which has been used for milch cow grazing". The land is generally good ainl will doubt-less be cultivated if tin- - company is dis-solved. Tho ue-:- t quetion thai ari-e- s is what will be done with the cows which are so tnmiorous iu Logan. About one half of the houses of Fleas-an- t drove are constructed of a peculiar soft porous lime rock, which is obtained from the mountains east of the city. The rock is generally of a grayish color and when lir- -t taken out is ery soft and can easily bo hewn to anv shape. The longer the rock is exposed to the air the harder it becomes. As a build-ing rock it is unexcelled, being warm in winter and cool in summer, lis porous nature, of course, prevents its being used for the foundation. But in the wall of the building its durability is un-questioned. THEIR IMAGINATION. How a Card Party or Sill t.akara Cani;ht :d "What a creator is imagination," said a Salt l.ako man. "The other uight at a whist party tho players re-marked ou the closeness of the air in tho room they occupied. Una of the ladies attempted to lower a sash, and finding it tight she did not say any-thing, but continued to watch the game. Presently on of the fair, players re-marked she feit quite cold and others were of the Bame opinion. Sonieouo went to the window to push up thn sash, when a merry laugh greeted his ears; the lady who had been there pre-viously could not control herself longer. Those of the party who had felt cold gracefully made themselves comfortable by laughing and indulging in merriment at their own imagination. This reminded the speaker of the fel-low who could not sleep well in the bed assigned him by a hotel clerk, the guest imagining tho air too thick. Reaching out and grabbing his boots he threw them as he supposed through the win-dow. Hearing the broken glass falling he thought be had furnished sufficient ventilation, and soon was sound asleep. On awaking ho saw he had dashed his boots through the glass in the doors of a bookcase which happened to bo in that room. AMONG THERAILROADS Additional Information Beipecting the California & Nevada Purohasad by tha Watchful Santa le. THD D, 4 E. 0. WANT AN AIE LINE. St. Panl and Kansas City Causing Trouble No Wonder Oroans are Heard-Ne- ws Notes From reports the California Ne-vada survey of a transcontinental line from Oakland eastward has been com-pleted as far as Frisco, Utah. It was the original intention to build a line to parallel the Central and Union racilic, but that owing to a division of opinion among the leading parties in-terested, the projest was never carried out, although the narrow guage road controls the water right and pier and franchise which his so long been cov-eted by the various large trunk lines. There can be no doubt but that the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe are the purchasers, as they control the Colora-do Midland, with which the now line will connect at Grand'. Junction, via Green river, and as they have long been dialing under tho restraint im-posed upon them by being compelled to go through California on Southern Pacific tracks, occasioning frequeut un-bridled quarrels. It is now clear why the Santa Fe has been proposlug to build into Uurango, which town will soon be connected with tho main Denver & Kio Grande track at Mnutroso by the Hio Graude Southern, being the only possible route by which the southern portion of Colo-rado can be brought into connection with the central trunk lines Not only will the Santa Fo have its own line .from the southern states to the Pacific coast by an almost direct line, bin it will also have a direct transcontinental route over the Mid-land to Colorado Springs, connecting there with their already existing sys-tem, and procure this without the " trouble that has kept every other com-- . pauy out of the great Pacific center. From l k Michigan to the 1'itcllio, A heavy, glistening copper wire stretches alongside the Santa Fe track across the Haton and Gloriptte ranges and away out to the coast. Few people notice it, and if they do give it no moro than a passing thought as being an im-provement of the Western Union line. Hut it is not anything of the kind, and represents a piece of striking private enterprise. It is for tho special use of a couple of the heavy Chicago grain houses, ami stretches almost unbroken from Lake Michigan to the Pacific. It is carried into but four or five offices in all that great tract of territory. Over it Hies the latest news of the wheat crop of the coast, gathered by special agenls.and the pit in the huge board of trade building feels the inllueuce of a cold breeze from the Pacfic almost o the I.os Angeles invalid has time to. jmt on his overcoat. Additional Growli. There is trouble brewing in the West-ern passenger circles on account of the action of the Chicago, St. Paul & Kan-sas City in manipulating passenger rates. On the one day limited Chicago ticket the road heretofore extended the time to five days and by scalping on local points did a big business. The principal points receiving tho benefit of the' scalped rate were l)es Moines and Marshalltown. The matter came to the attention of the other roads and such pressure was brought to bear that these tickets were withdrawn. Want an Air I.iua. The Denver & Ilio Grande will soon have out its surveyors again searching for that much desired short line which will carry the scenic route as nearly as possible in an air line west from Denver. Nothing has been done since January, when the weather drove tho corps out of the field, but it is intended to resume active operations at as early a date as possible. Tho general impression is that a couple of practicable routes have been found but men who know pre-serve discreot silence. What Makfta Thptn Croan. The secretary of the interslate com-merce commission has addressed a cir-cular letter to the passenger depart-ments of the western railroads asking for a complete statement of all changes that have taken place in passenger rates in the past year. No reason is given for seeking this information. What tho passenger ollicials shrink from is the amount of labor that wili be put upon them to comply with this rather singular request. Railroad Notts. The general passenger agents of the western lines are in Chicago trying to arrange summer tourist rates. The IT. P. is doing a nice business with parties bound for various Euro-pean points. Travelers are whisked to New York where they take steamers. The joint grievance committee of D. &, R. G. conductors and brakemen want t heir case of raise in wages set-tled at once and not wait for a set date meeting. It ooks as if the II. G. W. operator might hold down his chair in the Pro-gress building until the Western Union company arrange for the wires to enter the board of trade building. Present appearances would indicate the number of lines entering the coast country will be iucaeased before the century is much older. Practically matters are at such a point that new companies seo sullicient encouragement ahead for their undertakings. COLORADO NOTES. G. II. Snt tie of Steamboat Springs shot an immense mountain lion about 100 yards from his house recently. A circular has been issued by the striking miners at Crested Unite, ask-ing workmen to stay away from tho town. E. M. Steck of the Colorado Coal & Iron company at Crested Butte said yesterday that the strike was practi-cally over. Nelson Ilriley, an aged resident of Grand Junction, escaped from the house Saturday and wandered away and has not yet been found. Mr. K. F.

Willard & Co. of Colorado Springs, at tho instance of the Denver Fish company. The amount claimed is $1W5. The Atchison. Topeka & Santa Fe railroad dumped $40,000 into the La Junta county treasury this week, and the Missouri Pacific added Sl'000 more to the rjile. An important case was brought to trial at Aspen Saturday. It is a suit brought by H. C.

The mud still holds the streets in a wretched condition, and complaints continue to arise from various quarters. It has gotten so deep on some of the thoroughfares that the street car com-panies are experiencing some difliculty in running their vehicles. This accounts for the cars running somewhat slower than usual, especially on Second South street, whore the mud covers tho tracks and the space between the rails. "If we were to run as fast a accus-tomed," said a conductor, "the mud would fly up and in a short time ruin the machine. There are live or six cars now in the barn under repairs, the damages arisiug from too much mud. Tho company has to 'contend with it and from prospects the trouble will continue for somo time. The public may growl about us not running faster but we are doiag as much as can be done amid such surroundings."

Transact! mt oa 'Changs Floats From tba Mines Oilds and Ends of Our Great Industry. The most unsatisfactory condition of the ore market duriug the past winter ought to supply the inspiration to the mining and other business men of this territory for a movement having for its object the buildiug of a large smelter, or, if not co operative, to bavo it a stock company, with its shares held by those who are most in-terested in the subject. enterprises are often very illusory in their rewards and transitory in their existence, but no reason can be given why such a scheme would fail here, if such men as It. C. Chambers, John Q. l'ackard. A. K. Hyde, John Heck, Kd. Kagau, Nick Treweek, Colonel Miniigh-nes-y- , and somo others were iulereited in it. A very large concern of that kind ought to be tho most remunera-tive investtlient, and with theso gentle-men at its head a large amount of ore would always bo assured. I'tah furn-ishes nearly every class of oro that is desirable to smelting, and it is senseless and bad policy to permit it to be pulled elsewhere for treatment. With the certainty of the opening of the Deep Creek road and tho possibility of the Salt Lake, Boise City & Seattle line, a vast mineral area wouicl bo tributary and contributory to this city, furnishing a variety ef material of the very choic-est character for successful smelting. Such an cnterpriso would bo ele-mental in bringing in mil-lions of dollars annually, would employ an Briny of labor and create a business which now goes to enrich other cities, Such a smelter ought to have at least f00 tons daily capacity and even this might have to be en-larged. Ore buyers from Denver, Omaha and 1'ueblo smelters now regard this field as the very richest in the whole country for the purrhase of ore; and tjie Omaha it (irant, thetiiobe. Boston and Colorado, and the Philadel-phia smelting and rehiring companies all maintain buyers hero; they are all looking to Utah with longing eyes. While Denver is receiving ores all the way from Puget Sound to the Gulf af Mexico, and pouring their rich treas-ures into their own purses. Utah is sending its wealth away from home to benefit the money barons of other commercial centers. From a business point of view it is suicidal to permit this sort of thing to continue, for such aro the elements which go to make up a great city There is another point iu favor of a large enterprise of this char-acter it would compel equitable treat-ment from railroads, which would be idle for smaller institutions to ask or expect. This is a subject that the cham-ber of commerce and the real estate and mining exchanges might investigate and work on with profit aud with the hope that tangible results would follow. Mlnlog Exchange. Joe Davis and Charley Sleverison were the duet of stars in the pit today, and they were planets of the first mag-nitude too. The reporter went down there this morning with his little hatchet, and ho can't tell a lio. Davis and Stevenson were tho only brokers on the floor, so they just amused them-selves and made merry with each other. First Davis would sell somo to Steven-son and then Stevenson would unload to Davis. Crescent, Apex and Mam-moth were the only stocks exchanged, but the 5i)0 shares of the latter brought the volume of business counted in dol-lars up to a fair figure.

Mining: Tax. Tho house did an extremely sensible thing on yesterday, says tho lioise Statesman, in deciding not to tax unpatented mines or tho net in-comes theeof. Irt would be not only class legislation, but also would cause any amount of confusion on the assess-ment rolls of the ruining counties, if they bad decided to adopt tho bill as first introduced. But the sensible view of tho matter was taken by the ma jority iu committee of the whole, and the prospector will now be left freo from tho burden of paying taxes on a hope, or chance, or imagination. So long as his claim is unpatented ho has to pay tlOO annually in work upon it or or let it become the property of llio first jumper that chooses to take it. If mines should be taxed upon the basis of the income derived from the claim during tho previous year tho injustice would he as manifest as to tax the rancher upon his growing crops. Idaho owes much to the prospector, ami tho house have by this action recognized the fate. Thirty Miles ot copper. Louis Michener, superintendent of Senator S. R. Buford's cattle herds, ar-rived in the city last night from Boze-ma- He is here for the purpose of organizing a company to develop aud operate' valuable mica mines on Mea-dow creek, Madison county. One one of theso properties they have 10x14 inches of clear mica, said to be the best ever found in Montana. Mr. Michener brings news of the discovery of a great copper lode in tho (ialiatin range ut the head of the West (ialiatin. about tweuty miles northeast of Spanish creek. Mr. Michener is au old time Mon-tana-and experienced in mining. He says that a nrineraliyed ledge 100 feet has been traced for thirty milts in length. The first assay of the ore gave U'O percent copper. Twenty-on- e assays were then made from specimens across the width of the lead. The averago showed 14 per cent copper, 8 ounces of silver and small tracos of gold. A torce is now doing development work. Mr. Michener has taken up several claims and is enthusiastio over the dis-covery. Copper ore earning H per cent of the red metal is said to be more than .be average copper veius of Butte carry. This is certainly a big thing and will undoubtedly attract the atteution of the copper kuu;s of Butte. Mr. Michener is thoroughly reliable lleleua Independent Wyoming Mlnea. A special from Cheyenne says: There are now seventy men at Gold Hill, and fourteen claims are being developed. A cross cut is being made at the sixty foot level of the which seems to bo tho most promising mine of ths new camp.

At tho meeting held last night for the election of olliccis fur the ensuing year, the following gentlemen were named: Joshua Midgely, t: (ieorge A. Meears, William Fuller. Delany Wilson und Nathan Sears, di-rectors; W. C Van Horn, secretary, and F. W. Bailey, who held the same position last year, superintendent. Work will commence on the mine about April 1st, and the policy for the seasons will be to push the develop-ments, particularly on the ground ac-quired by the company lat summer, and continue them ou portions of tho old territory. Plenty of water for this summer is assured, as the enows have been more than Usually heavy, and in this respect better than ever before. Daap Creek Hiehnell. Harvey Hardv received a letter yes-terday from his prospectors in Deep creek that made him feel so good that he g"t up a basket of wine and made him very positive that he would bu a millionaire aud tho lirst United States senator from Utah. The letter gave the intelligence that his live mines were looking belter and that richer ore would be sent in than any he had pre-viously received, which would mean over HOOD ounces. The shafts are all down from seven to twelve feet and the veins getting wider. The weather in Fagle district has been very cold and disagreeable and has much militated against steady work. 'ortharn Spy Aaaeatment. It was an item of some surprise to mining men when they saw in the col-umns of The Times that an assessment had been made by the officers of this company. The reason assigned is the bad condition of the roads, which has largely prevented shipments, the ex-pensive improvements made and the comprehensive explorations now going on and which they are desirous of con-tinuing. Noatharn Light. Three cars of Northern Light ore came in yesterday and lots more would follow if the roads were only in condi-tion to snip. The snow blockade is complete throughout tho Ophir and Dry Canyon districts. llifr Anrhur Ore). Bishop & Curric, tho assayers, made cantracts yesterday on a shipmen of 100 tons of Anchor ore. which returned li.' ounces silver aud 52 per cent lead. This is from the new strike.
