ciency and value of Ita plant. An aux
iliary boiler has been added, together
with an engine and complete equip
ment that can be used In case of the
disablement of the larger or principal
boiler and engine.
The original plant was equipped with
a 70-horsepower engine and an 80-horse-power
boiler, while the new machinery
will generate 40 or 80 horsepower, and
will, when used In connection with the
machinery that is already in use, al
most double the caDaclty of the slant.
There are in uae within the city llm
Ita something more than 1.200 drops
at tbe present time, and practically no
new ones were put In use last winter
for the reason that the machinery was
loaded to the limit and Manager Crooks
feared some accident would disable the
plant and leave the city In darkness
until additional machinery could be
shipped in and Installed.
The question of fuel is a serious one
that the company has to meet at pres
ent. The price of four-foot wood de
livered at the plant is $4 per cord, and
it requires 1,600 cords to run the plant
for one year. The water system of the
company is sufficient for the present,
and with the additional engine at, the
power-house for use In case of fire the
system Is all that could be desired.
The power for the system is from a

Heiena, Mont., Sept. 14. Twenty-four
per cent In nine months is a rather re
markable financial record, yet it only
Illustrates the possibilities of the sheep
Industry in Montana. At a meeting of
the directors of the Blalr-Penwell Ranch
company, which last January took over
the Blair and an adjoining ranch In
this section, a dividend of 15 per cent
was declared. But the reports of the
officials showed that 24 had been
ea rned.
Instead of applying the whole profit to
dividends, the directors decided to es
tabllah a reserve fund with a portion of
the remainder, as well an purchasing
moro sheep and making a few Improve
ments on the ranch plant. The divi
dend is made payable October 1.
This is the fourth or fifth of these
concerns organlred in Helena within the
pas few years to pay such large divi
dends. Among them are the Riverside
Land A Livestock company, which
earned 2414 per cent; the Wlnnecook,
26 per cent; the Clear Range, 24 per
cent, and the Foster, 30 per cent.
The method haa been the formation
of syndicates, which would take over the
large sheep ranches of central Montana,
and practically all of the stock Is owned
in Helena. The high prices for sheep,
lambs and wool has enabled this rather
remarkable record aa viewed from a
financial standpoint, but the greater
gain is ultimately expected from the en 4
nanced value of the lands, some of
which have been secured at as low as
$2 and $3 an acre.
Mrs. A. H. Adams, a well-dressed
woman of about 40 years, was arrested
at the Perkins hotel last night by De
tectives . McCullough and Price on a
charge of drunkenness, upon complaint
of Night Clerk Thompson. The woman,
who Is said to have formerly conducted
a lodging house In this city, rented a
room at the Perkins yesterday and by
8 p. m. had become so intoxicated that
the management decided to call the police.
Mrs. Adams was locked ud In the
city prison and upon belng-releaeed this
morning declared tnat she nad been re
lieved of a gold watch which she prized
very highly. The woman declared that
the timepiece was in her reticule at the
time of her arrest. Detective Price who
brought the satchel from the hotel
made an Investigation with the result
that the missing watch was found this
morning In the woman's trunk at the
Perkina.

OFFICER STRIKES
OFFENDING BUTCHER
The day of the road show has passed,
declares Attorney John F. Logan, and
the new railroad laws passed by the
congress and their enforcement by tbe
Interstate commerce commission have
killed them. The only theatrical troupes
that can now afford to travel are those
of the highest class and tbe fakers,
says Logan.
The reasons given are that tha new
laws no longer permit the railroads to
give troupes special rates on their car
loads of scenery, and forbid the mak
ing of special passenger rates. Former
ly it waa aa cheap to pay fare for a
troupe of lo as It waa for one of 10,
but the theatrical rates have been abol
ished by the railroads owing to the de
cision of the interstate commerce com
mission that all rates must be open to
the public.
Attorney Logan believes that these
conditions as to railroad travel will per
mit only tbe very best companies and
the fakers to earn enough to make
traveling profitable, and saya the time
will come soon when there will be no
good, middle claas troupes on the road.

alarmed the . cable ' companies, ' whose
charge la Is 'a word. Foremost among
tha reasons whythey ara not dismayed
by tha prospect la the fact that In or
der to believe In It they have first to
see the results of . tha wireless aer-
vlce. It hsa been "coming for ao
many yeara-that now, when It la pre-
ciaeiy announced . to oegin in a lew

what lta actual achievement will amount
to. , Tnis, or course, only makes Mr.
Marconi's opportunity for distinction
all the greater, and renders the occasion
renerallv all the more Interesting.
.. Charles Bright. F.R.S.K., M.I.K.K., a
well-known authority, and the author
of a standard worli on submarine teleg
raphy, was - Interviewed yesterday by
a Dally Graphic representative, and
expressed tha opinion that In conneotlon
with wireless telegraphy some of the
statements mada publicly had been vary
frequently In advance of the facts. He
did not say that It waa Impossible to
send Transatlantic messages by wire
less, provide! that a sufficiently high
fower was used. But for one thing,
ha sneed of wireless could not compare
with the speed of tha cable.
Tbe Cable Kach Quicker.
'The apeed of an Atlantic cable Is 100
worda a minute," continued Mr. Bright.
"Tha wireless telegraphy we know of
at present is certainly not capable of
snytninr line tnis. Twenty woras a
minute 1 think It Is. There are 17 At
lantic cables the Anglo-American and
the Commercial have each five. If the
traffic warranted U. tha cable's speed
of .-renemlssioiv might .be. considerably
increased, because the limitations set
on It are only due to tha type of Insu
lated conductor If necessary one could
lay a cable with a bigger conductor. On
account of the comparatively low wire
less apeed obtained. If a Transatlantic
wireless company were to secure suf
ficient traffic to effect a success com
mercially, ltf could probably only be by
the establishment of several stations at
each end, and these, by reason of the
high power used, would be liable to
lnter-interference.
Tha Cable Mora Aoc urate.
U "Besides holding the field In the mat
ter or speea over any system or wire-
the cable Is likely. In my opinion, to hold
the record tor accuracy. We hear all
about tQe aucceaaes of wireless teleg
raphy; we don't hear of the difficulties,
of the numbar of repetitions necessary
before they get a message through cor
rectly. On the other hand, the Immedi
ate accuracy In cable telegraphv s at
about as high a pitch aa anything
could be.
"Wireless at present la well adapted
for the Interchange of compliments,
but not for considerable commercial
messages involving elaborate codes.

ing. .the publication of a sensational
story In a Portland dally paper to tho
effect that a race feud had started in
this city and that a soldier had been
the leader of an asaault on a gang of
Hindoos, the authorities at Vancouver
barracks detailed an' officer to look in
to tho matter.

which several persons took part, but It
was soon quieted by the police. The
