Grumpy Uncle—Is the child really prepared for school? Proud Mother—Perfectly prepared. She knows all about it and doesn't need a word. Only a few thousand dollars more will have to be paid out by the United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company in settling the labor claims held against the sub-contracting firm of Maloney & Corley, for their work on the water supply company, in accordance with its bond with the company at first, however, the labor claimants had to wait more than a week ago in order to compel the water company to acknowledge the labor claims due. Since assuming matters directly, however, the company has settled in all, with claims running out between $60,000 and $70,000. The amount due, however, is nearly 70,000. **Long Pay Line.** The official announcement that the claims would be paid was made some time ago. The company will accept checks on the firm and the pay line each day has been a long one. On occasion the men waiting for their checks filled the street from the fidelity office on the third floor down to the street level. A considerable number of the claimants had already assigned their time checks and the payment of these has involved a considerable amount of clerical work, as the work done by the sub-contracting firm and its company was necessary for clearing. As an important step taken was the cancellation of the pay rolls of all the men in the employ who are employed being laid off. A new crew is being hired. Additional pressure has been put on the pay roll again. The full force of 300 will be operating, some of them having been previously put on the job. **W. C. T. U. Work.** The regular of the Butte W. C. T. U. will be held tomorrow at the residence of Mrs. G. H. Turner, 403 West Granite street at 3 p. m. The White slave traffic and the drama will be the topics and subjects of discussion. A missionary education contest will be conducted under the auspices of the Butte Presbyterian church, commencing next Sunday, at 3 o'clock, in the lecture room. W. E. Fusta, M. Geiger, Harry Conner, J. Brunton are expected to participate. Good music has been arranged for the occasion and especially --- ## Column 2 # GAELIC LEAGUE HAS BIG TIME ### CELEBRATES FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF ITS ORGANIZATION HERE. **Hall at St. Mary's School Crowded With Interested Audience — Addresses Delivered and Delightful Program Is Rendered.** An audience that taxed the capacity of St. Mary's school hall was assembled there yesterday afternoon to attend the exercises of the Gaelic league's first anniversary celebration. The hall was today, the local branch of the league was organized in Engineer's hall and its charter members went to work with it will be build up the organization. The growth of the league is indicated by the fact that the league today has more than 300 members in Butte, all of whom are deeply interested in its work. The league has demonstrated that the Irish spirit is always large. Splendid progress has been shown by the number of children learning to read and write Gaelic. Some months and years ago only a very few in Butte spoke Gaelic. Now it is revived in St. Men, women and children are learning. The best thing about the league is comraderies and complication. It gives opportunity to cultivate the language and give all its members opportunity to become better acquainted with the culture and language of Ireland. The league in all parts of Ireland and America has made concentrated efforts to bring about improvement in all its members, in their understanding of history, in their character, and in every way to work for the advancement of Erin. **Splendid Program.** The program yesterday afternoon was thoroughly enjoyed, nearly everyone being Irish. The League was given an address in Gaelic by President James Fancy [Feeney?] and through a very able and interesting speech on the success of the league. President [illegible] thanked the members for their work, expressed the thanks of the Irish people, spoke of assistance given by the newspapers of the city, and said the organization was built upon a solid foundation. He spoke of the city's generosity in permitting the league to meet in the school room, and furnishing the necessary fuel and light free of charge. Then Father Yorke, of San Francisco, was one of the most important features of the afternoon. Father Yorke spoke for thirty-five minutes, detailing the history of the Gaelic league founded in Ireland about twenty-five or more years ago. The speaker laboriously detailed the various trials of the league and told of what it has and hopes to accomplish. **Other Participants.** The remainder of the program was as follows: "The Harp That Once Through Tara's Halls," song in Gaelic by the juvenile class; song, "Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young Charms," Mrs. Thomas Murphy; song, "Killarney," hornpipe, Thomas Murphy and Mrs. J.

It is alleged four members of the society, belonging to the minority faction, made an effort at Saturday night's meeting for the minority faction to bind the men over the post. Michael Perlain, who was elected to the presidency of the society about a week ago, is the object of bitter attack by the minority. The principal charges against Perlain are that while while acting as its secretary during the previous term he was not loyal to others, working at the Original rather than for the society, and was threatened with death by the opposing faction. Perlain claims that all the [illegible] charges made against him are not going to work. At the meeting last week Perlain was to be installed as recording secretary. He claims that the minority members were gathered, and nearly caused a riot. When Perlain arose to take the oath, one man objected, claiming that he was unfit for the office. Matters then became wrought up in disorder, and sheriff's deputies called, and though the report of the matter was not made public at the time, the affair brought the police. One of the deputies made an arrest as well. Each party accuses the other of being the parties to organize the attempted riot. **THIRD GRAND CARNIVAL.** At the Holland rink, given under the auspices of the Anaconda company employees, Thursday evening, January 23.
