The sermon of Bishop 1. w. Joyce
last Sunday morning was listened to
attentively by a large congregation,
the opera house being well filled. 1t
was the finest address ever delivered
in Fergus county and even among
those who have listened to t~hepastors
OF great churches in the east was con-
sidered the best sermon they had
heard. The ARGUS regrets its inabil-
ity to print the discourse. In the
evening DIR. Keen spoke followed by a
short talk by the bishop, in the course
of which he said that among the citi-
zens OF Montana he found n greater
proportion OF college graduates and
backsliding Christians than in any
other state. When he noticed the AZ
%pointmens of a conference ut Lewis
town among his dates he said thar he
searched diligently fer the place in his
railroad guide but was compelled TO
consult IA geography in order to locate
us. Upon reaching L.ewistown he was
most agreeably surprised to find such
n fine town and so advanced IA popu-
lation. The bishop is IA fine gentle
man and his visit to Lewistown may
well be considered "A bright spot in our
history.
The August number of the North

titled "A Rich Section of Montana"

Gle includes a very good write-up OF
the Judith Basin, its area and IT'S DC
town receives good notice though we
think the population is far too low.
Robert Morrison, +. +. MacGowan,
b. c. White, Frank Moshner, Henry
Schmitz, David Hilger, John +.
Barnes and Cyrus Stiles receive per-
sonal mention in connection with
their business interests. Special at
tention is paid the Judith mountain
mines and wheat growing in the
Judith. The illustrations include a
bird's-eye view Of the town, II view OF
Il t roller mills and w. $. Powell's
home on the Judith, beside the por-
traits OF b. C. White, Robert Morri-
son, Frank MOshner, David Hilger,
Henry Schmitz and j. p. Barnes. The
view of lewIstown does not print up
well n nd in many respects makes a
poor showing. Although the article
md illustrations are not what many
citizens wonld have bee glad to have
seen, it is neither the fault oil the
author nor OF the magazine.

them will be set up in business as
herders on their own account, and in
this way the herds will naturally be-
come more and more distributed
throughout the country, until at last
they overspread the entire northern
region as the northeastern corners of
Siberia and Lapland are now covered.
There is no doubt that practically the
whole of Alaska is good grazing ground
for reindeer.
The importation of reindeer is no
longer an experiment The practical
bility and advantages of the enter
prise have been demonstrated, and it
will be a great thing for Alaska when
the herding of reindeer is firmly es-
tablished there on large scale. The
natives will have permanent, regular
and abundant supply of food. and with
more generous nourishment, the
population is likely to increase in
numbers. Then achange from the con-
dition of hunters to that of herders
will be distinct advance for the Eski-
mos in the scale of civilization. Rein
deer easily travel 100 miles day, and
their introduction will help to solve
the question of Alaskan transporta-
ton.
A new and profitable industry will
also be added to the country. Rein
deer skins are marketed all over
Europe and are worth in their raw
condition from $3.50 to 81. Is apiece.
The tanned skins (soft, with beauti-
full yellow COLOR find ready sale in
Sweden at from So to $2.75 each.
Reindeer skins are used for gloves,
military riding trousers, and the bind
ing of books. Reindeer hair is in
great demand, and from reindeer
horns is made the best glue. Smoked
reindeer tongues and tanned skins are
among the principal products of the
great annual fair at Mini Novgorod,
Russia. In Lapland there are about
100000 head of reindeer, sustaining
in comfort some %, 900 people. Mr..
Sheldon says there is no reason, con-
sidering the greater area of the coun-
try and the abundance of reindeer
moss, why arctic and suharctic Alaska
should not sustain a population of
10000 people with 100000 head of
reindeer.
The work is prosecuted, with the aid
of Congress, and it is expected that
before many years the industry will be
self-supporting. New Orleans Plea

Quarter We'll Invested.

1t is said that 10 years ago John Kernel
gave a bowery beggar a quarter. Last
week between the acts of "McFadden' 5
Elopement," in JOhnstown, Pa, Kernel
was visited by one of the most prosperous
citizens of that place. who handed him a
quarter and gold watch inlaid with dia-
monds. He had been the bowery beggar
of 10 years ago and he said that kernell's
quarter. which he now paid back, had
saved him from suicide.-Phitddetph

The JOhnStown Democrat adds: The
above actually happened, but it will keep
people guessing as to who was the former
beggar.

,ou IA, Iump "A Board Bill.

1t has become a very common practice
for an alderman or justice of the peace to
hold persons for court or sentence them TO
fafI for defrauding boarding house keep
ers. Unless, however, there is false pre-
tense averred, the imprisonment Is Illegal.
Recently, George Hoover, of MOrrell-
Vile. was arrested for jumping board
bill. and he was taken before Justice ID. >.
Burkhart, of that borough. for trial. He
pleaded guilty and was sentenced to thirty
DAYS in the county Jail. and it was this
case that was tested. The commissioners
attorney, Mr.. Kittell, took out writ of
habeas corpus and had the prisoner taken
before Judge Barker, who, after examin-
ing the commitment and returns, dis
charged the prisoner for the reason that
no false pretense had been resorted 10, and
he had therefore committed no crime un-
der the law Should this decision be ac-
cepted generally as law, boarding house
keepers will be in more perilous state
than ever before.

Lost His Pscketbook.

Monday afternoon group of young
men up town were in conversation and one
OF the number suggested that they have a
wrestle for amusement, ii was decided
that David Scruders and John Hull should
lock arms, for which purpose they retreat
ed TO a grassy spot on Bald Eagle avenue.
between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets,
where the friendly Scuffie began without
ceremony. In the meantime Scruders had
handed his pocketbook containing conSid-
| cradle money. to his brother Elmer By
! some mishap in the Scuffle Scruders' nose
came in violent contact with the person of
Hull, causing ii to bleed profusely and ab-
! rubtly ending the wrestle so far as
| Scruders was concerned. But the group
not being satisfied with so short an enter
| taInment, Elmer took the place of his
! brother and clinched with Hull. passing
the pockeJboOk back to its owner as he did
so.
The bleeding of David'S nose diverting
his attention from other things for the
moment he unnoticed by himself dropped
the pocketbook on the ground Charley
Philips who was in the group noticed the
pocketbOok fall, moved to il and placing
his foot on it watched his opportunity and
picked it uD and put in his pocket. For t
tunately John Haup, another of the parVy, |
saw Philips pick up the pocket book. but |
throught he intended it as a joke and |
would return Il TO the proper owner after
the fun was over Haup left the group
soon after, and in sho,L time the entire |
party dispersed, Scrudsrs having forgotten
all about the pOckettook, but he in due
time missed it, and IpOn inquiry for it
next day Haup related To him the per-
formances of Philips.
In the meantime Philips, not knowing
that he was seen by anyone picking up the
pOcketbOOk, went to Altoona and doubt
less had 4 big time yesterday on Il portion
of the cash. Returning to Tyrone last
night, he was arrested by Officer Snyder as
he was getting off the Philadelphia ex-
press. and landed in the lookup. On be-
ing taken before Justice Taylor this
morning he waived Il hearing and express
taken to Jail this afternoon to await an
opportunity TO answer for the offense be-
fore Judge Bell at the next session of
court. ScruderS says he thinks there were
about 81 in the pOcketbook but he is sure
1t contained Si5. When arrested last nigh.
the pOcketbOOk was taken from Philips.
Ii then contained S21 90. David Scrnders
