Nearly all the money to be raised ne- ceaaary for the putting in of the instru- ments and putting up the wire giving Lump City telephone\connection with the rest of America, has been subscrib- ed and if a cyclone don't strike the in- habitants of this vicinity before another week or ten days, the telephone will be in operation here. This information is vouched for by Mr. L. C. MoCann, who is fathering th. enterprise. C. C. Stubbs is putting an addition to his already mammoth general merchan- dising establishment, 24x50 ft. Messrs. Butler, Green and Bernhard are doing the work. It is expected to have the building completed and ready for oc- cupancy by August 1, next, if possible, when it will be tilled full from cellar to garret with an extensive stock of dry - goods, groceries, clothing and everything that pertains to general merchandising. There will be church servioes at the selex , 1 house to -morrow (Sunday) ‚mn rnediately following the Sunday School, which will be held at 2:30 o'clock. A minister will be present from East Helena. Everybody invited. Negotia- tions are in progress to build a church, and it will not be long before a church building of some kind will be a foregone conclusion. Helena Silver -Gold Strike. A Helena paper prints an account of a rich gold and silver strike in a mine not two miles from Main street. The mine is called the Ne Plus Ultra, and is own- ed by a New York company and manag- ed by Frederick Carr. Ore has not yet been tested by assay, but the native silvei sticks out all over it and is evi- dently very rich. From an imperfect test, Professor Carr got a valuation of 500 ounces of silver and about $25 in gold to the ton, but he thinks it will run much higher. Carr started to oink a shaft on the mine, to demonstrate his theory that a great belt lead runs right through Helena, and he has several other loca- tions on the line of this lead. The strength of the vein is not yet known, but it is several feet wide, and if the ore holds out, one of the greatest mines in the oountry eill be the result. Tbe ore is free milling. It was found at the depth of only sixty-five feet. No Use For a Paper. Mining men generally are enterpris- ing, progressive, generous and broad- minded, but onoe in a while there is a district or camp where the entire com- munity seems to be made up of a class who are the very reverse of the above, says the Denver Mining Review. A representative of this paper ran across an individual of the stagnant camp species the other day, without being aware of the breed at the start. The stagnationist was asked to sub- scribe as a wimple oopy was handed him. It was like offering water to a dog with the rabies. \It is a very good paper,\ said the etagnationist, \but I've got no use for it nor any publication in the mining line. They tell only about mines and are not interesting to me. I'd rather have a good story paper, and them I borrow from my neighbor. Its throveing mono away to pay for news papers.\ he then went on to bemoan his hard lurk lie bad been mining twenty-seven years and all he had to show for it was a lot with a log cabin on it where he kept Ins wife and four babies. It . , est, him, he maid, all of $250 a year to keep them and him in grub and clothing. Woed and water cost nothing and he made th• most of the furniture by cutting it out with an axe end adze.

As luck would have it, she fell into the clutches of \Doc.\ Sand ford, a character well known in the high grade gulch of Lump, who had the honor of escorting her into the hotel for supper, but had formerly been intro- duced by the name of Kettle. \Doc.\ is somewhat of a wag himself, and after they were seated at the table the lady, desirious of exhibiting her talent, open- ed•the conversation with : \ Let me see. I did not quite catch your name when introduced to you just now. ,, \Kettle is my naine,\ said \Doc.\ in response. \Ah a peculiar name rather; and are you married may I ask?\ \Oh yes,\ was his reply. \Then there is a female Kettle,\ she continued; \and are there any little Kettles, Mr. Kettle?\ At this continued play upon his as Burned name. \Doc.\ became a little nettled and replied: \Oh yes, madam, there are tive little Kettles, --three with spouts.\ There was at once a turn in the con- versation. The Latest From The Wizard of Menlo Park. There has been no great length of time, in the past twenty years, when Thos. A. Edison did not bring out _some new invention, which surprised and startled the world. When, in 1888 he perfected the phono- graph, by which all sounds were record- ed and reproduced naturally, it was thougnt he had reached the elimax. And so he had for the time being, but when in July, 1894, the Kinetoecope was placed before the public and reproduc cei motion true to life:everyone said, What will Edison do next?\ Well, \the next\ has been done. In April ot this year, Mr. Edison success- fully combined the Phonograph and Kinetoscope into one machine, which he called the Kineto-phone. This machine reproduces both motion and sound at the same time. .- A description of this wonderful machine on paper, is out of the question. It must be seen to be understood and appreciated. One of them is on exhibi- tion at No. 28 South Main Street, Helena at the phonograph parlors of G. W. Walters, where it can be inspected. The editor of this paper recently saw the machine reproduce the serpentine dance, at the same time hearing the music which belongs to it. The whole scene is so real and lifelike that you can hardly realize you are not in the opera house looking at the beautiful girl dancing on the stage while the band plays for her. The time is not far distant when de- velopments of thin machine will be such that whole operas, both players and music will be accurately reproduced, with all the actors thousands of miles distant, or may he dead. We need not be surprised at anything that may be sprung in this line of development. Nevada City Undermined. Nevada City, Cal. stands a fair chance of being undermined by those in search of gold. S. K. Thornton has on exhibi- tion at the Board of Trade rooms, on Market etreet, • fine piece of gold quartz taken out of the earth under Nevada City. Some time ago, in following a gold -bearing ledge in the Reward gold mine, a rich streak was encountered that hid the miners tender the town proper at the west end. In order to drain otT the water, a tunnel was run in from the creek, which has also been profitable to the minera. se they followed the ledge along thin entire lengtIvarof the tunnel. Appear -fir - leek andieste that the ledge ruine under the e ntir e teen As some Of UM rra , k produeed Is , , in gold to the ton there are prompevto of other miners seeking for wea lth und er the streets and houses of Nevada City. - Ran Vraneteeo ADDITION TO LUMP CITY.
