A couple Of A~ssyrians, or "Siberians,' - as
the children called them, or natives of some
other land, wearing the red fez head gear
and selling queer trinkets "did" he town a
couple of days this week. They looked like
a couple of meteoric incidents fitting along
the orbit of Sells circus.

Notwithstanding its coming had not been
as we'll advertised in. the Montana newspa.
pers as Sells circus was, the eclipse of the
moon came on at the proper hour Sunday
evening and lasted over five hours. We
believe it reached totality during the exhi.
bition, but our almanac isn't adjusted to this
locality and the night was too cloudy for a
good observation.
just while we think Of it., we desire to
mention that in about three or four weeks
from now will be the best time to visit the
Yellowstone National Park. The nearest to
the LIST of September you can strike moon
light evenings is he best time to 60 there
! The early part of September is almost uni
y~ersally fine weather, bur the moonlight is
an important element of enjoyment, even ii
you haven't your best girl along or are or
the sunset side of life.
We want to avoid the expression thai
| there are no flies on Montana this veal. but
| it seems proper to mention somehow the
absence of flies here this year 1t is sale
that absence indicates a sickly season, bu'
probably all there is in that is that they din
off poisonous matter and leave less of it Il

Mr.. Robert Wilson, formerly of Cole
Creek and a we'll known resident of thi'
County, returned this week from Alaska
He says the population is increasing quite
rapidly about juneau City. On Forty = M LIZ
Creek; where 20 men tool out 500, 900 las
year, a large number are working this yea
and it is expected q greater amount Will o
taken out. He thinks a majority of the PEG
ME in Alaska are old Montanians, or have a
some time lived here. Not only DouRla
Island. with its famous mine, is yieldin
enormously. but on severa! other islands an
on the main land good quartz is reported
and the region bids fair to develop well. MI

Graden. have gone to the Yukon, ana IN
