There ure few efforts to jlease more suc- cessful in their resulis than *o thoroughly THR CRAVING APPETITE of tha hungry traveler, or the mincing tastes cf ths fastilious epicure. This su:- cessfully accomplished is much, but when coupled with the remark, as was made to us by the Meswrs, Kitchen brothers, at their Green River and Evanston eating houses, **T'here is no charge for you, gentle- men,” we were like the camelr, and this straw_broke our backs. At Dillon «ur bost, P, O'Neil; at Butte.

Oar stay i Butte was made exceedingly pleasant by the un- tiring cfforts on the part of the gentlemen mentioned to make our visit one to be re: membered. AT HELENA we were received by the board of trade, mayor and city council and prominent citizens, all yying with each other to make our visit with them an enjoyable one, Conveyed by carriges tothe Hot Springs, placer mines, United Stutes mint, faic grounds, and many points of exceeding terest, stooping on the way at the beauti- ful home of our friend Kessler, our party of fifty and more were entertaincd ina right reyal manner, reaching onr hotels in time to accept the invitations ot our hosts to visiy with them tho opera in the even. ing.

The secretary presented a lengthy communication, setting forth the mer- ita of the new process for manafactur- irg glucose, which are briefly as fol- low First—A superior produot. Second—The quantity is not second to the quality. Third—All that portion of the grain which is not convertible into sacchar- ine is by this aystem obtained as food for cattie, ete. Fourtl:—~The cost df production is much loes. Fifth--Rapid production requires but three days, as against eight days by the starch processes. Sixth-——Works cost about one-half of those required by the old starch plan. Seventh — Less working capital is re- quired. From the foregoing statement of Messrs, Fell & Jepson, the foi.owing conclusions are drawn as regards the eraction of works at Omaha of a daily oapacity of 3,000 bushels of coru. Two hundred and fifty thousand dol- lars capital would realize quite satis- faotory returns per year. It is esti- mated there is 110,000,000 bushels of corn in Nebraska this year, and that the prica will be about forty cents. Adding fiftcen - cents expense for manufacturing, making tho whole cost 06 cents, and giviog as nu expense ou 3,000 bushels daily $1,650. Counting product at 70 to T per cent, it is safe to say thatwith tnrenand one half gal- lona per bushel, at 40 cents, wo have ,200, or net $2,660, ora grand total of $765,000 on working 300 days in the yeur, or imore than 300 per cent of the capital employed. It is also apparent that the cost of corn and expense of manufacture may b largely increased, and tke selling price reduced, and still return an enormous profit. In this estimate, no account is made of the feod estimated to keep 3,000 head of cattle, which stock men un- derstand the value of. The royalty for ues of tho patents is two cents per galion on a c:pacity ot 1000 bushels per day, and less on 3,000.

B, Houck, the agent of the society, was read and ordered filed: “Knowing that many of you thiuk it singular that I have failed to make complaints or prosecute violators of the cruely to animals law since the funds from which I was paia became exhausted, I deem an explanationneces- sary on my part.” *1 am now, as I always was, in fa vor of protection to dumb animals.

Since then and even as late as Sat. urday last, complaiuts . have been | made to use of *“cruelty to snimals,” “This, ladies and gentlemen, cause why I have so long remained seemingly ivactive, I should like very much to attend your meetiugs, but as Ilive so far away, and the roaas being so bad, it is impoasible for me to do so."” Inquiry beisg made ss to whether any action had been taken with re. gard to street car horses on the 8 office of O.
