nance the value of real estate generally
without consideration at all of the adj
vantages which would eventually ac-
crue in breaking the farce at this point
of the severe winds which betimes
sweep unchecked through the Yellow
stone valley.
No action was taken upon the ques-
ton of extending the water mains
along Calendar street, the committee
not reporting. upon the suggestion Of
alderman Thompson that the water
question had become an issue in the
'election, inasmuch as IL was reported
that in the event certain gentleman
was elected every man should have a
hydrant for his own private use. For
this reason Mr.. Thompson wanted the
matter to go over, so that the gentle
man. If elected, would have starter
for redeeming his ante-election prom
ises. And in making these remarks the
alderman cast a significant glance to
wherA sat his colleague, Alderman Cor
don.
G A motion was made by Alderman
Gordon to pay off the remaining dyke
Indebtedness, $307.47. by issuing war
rants on the street fund. He contended
that about one-third of the dyke was
built upon the streets. and the city
should therefore be willing to bear this
small part of the expense.
Alderman Thompson raised the point
that the = Ike taxes had not all been
paid, and the city now appropriated
moneys out of some other fund to set
tie up the dyke business, any money
received in the future in payment of
tax levied to establish a dyke fund
could not be used for any other pur-
pose, and consequently would remain
idle in the treasury.
Treasurer GARNER suggested that the
city need not make a transfer from one
fund to another, but could get around
the difficulty by authorizing the treas
urer to borrow the amount from any
other fund, and then as the dyke taxes
were paid it could be returned.
The council decided that this plan
was all right and authorized the treas
urer to draw upon the street fund for
the sum stated above.

Hamilton, April 6.-The school cleo

ken, turned out at the eleventh hour
TO be quite an exciting contest. Not
only were there ward workers out
bringing in male voters from the high
ways and byways, but even the ladies
took a lively interest in the contest,
and not only went TO the polls to vote,
but in some instances a house to house
canvass was made. There were two
tickets in the field and each was elect

HERSnEY'S LUCK.
lie Is a school Trustee and the Father of
Girl.

Missoula. April 6-When luck starts a
mans way. IL can't come fast enough.
Last Saturday +. Il. Hershey was elected
school trustee and yesterday he became
the father of a big. handsome baby girl.
To-day he has been receiving the congrat-
ulations of his many friends and his office
in the First National bank building has
been the scene of a perfect ovation. Up
on Mr.. Hershey's desk. placed there by
loving hands. was a beautiful rag doll,
deliberately gowned i'm the latest novelties
in baby wear. Upon its frilled skirt was
a card bearing the legend: so that you
won't be lonesome, Papa"
Around the beautiful doll. which was
fashioned by the skillful hands of Hon.
w. NJ. Bickford. was a stack of the cards
of Mr.. Hershey's friends bearing congrat-
ulations. Nothing was forgotten that
could express to the proud father the
good wishes of his friends.
And. speaking of luck, Mr.. Hershey
could only thank his friends. There was
no possibility of a celebration of the
happy event in the convivial manner
which long practice has made compulsory
TO young fathers. The saloons were all
closed. No baby ever had a dryer well
come than that accorded to Miss Hershey.
II was a little disappointing. but the con-
CALCULATIONS go just the same and Mr. and
Mrs. Hershey and the new arrival have
the good wishes of host of friends.

WHERE 1T Is REALLY COLD.
"A o1ntry Where a Lighted Candle Firds
4 VERY Hard to Keep Warm.

4 verY Hard to Keep Warm.
From the Popular Science News.
Cold is merely a relative term. The
resident of semi-tropical countries shiv-
ers when the thermometer falls to so
degrees, while the Laplander and the
Esquimau think ii is comfortable at
zero.
For real cold and plenty of ii one
must go to the polar regions. Think
of living where the mercury goes down
to 35 degrees below zero in the house,
in spite of the stove. OF course. in
such a case, fur garments are piled on
until a man looks like a bundle of skins.
I, Dr. Moss, of the Polar expedition of
1896 among other odd things, tells
of the effect of cold on a wax candle
which he burned there. The tempera-
ture was 35 degrees below zero; and
the doctor must have been considerably
discouraged when, upon looking at his
candle discovered that the flame had
all il could do to keep warm.
1t was so cold that the flame could
not melt all the wax of the candle,
but was forced to cut it's way down,
leaving a sort of skeleton of the candle
standing.
{ There was heat enough, however, to
melt oddly shaped holes in the thin
walls of wax; and the result was a
beautiful lace-like cylinder of white
with a tongue of yellow flame burn
ing inside it, and sending out into the
darkness many streaks of light

THE CONTESTS.
They Hold the Boards In the United
States Land Ohce.


states Land Ohce.
Missoula, April 6.-The land contest
of the Northern Pacific railroad COM
pany against the classification made by
the mineral land commissioners was
still on the boards at the United States
land office to-day. Several witnesses
were examined and cross-examined as
to the character of the land which has
become of so much Importance. Moth
ing new was developed and the exam
ination is becoming tedious. Satur-
days session was enlivened somewhat
by the surprising and startling propo-
sition made by the attorney for the
railroad company. but to-day's session
was devoid Of any exciting incident.
That proposition, published in the
Standard to-day has been the subject
of considerable comment. 1t is gener-
ally regarded as rejecting upon the
ability and integrity of the members of
the mineral land commission, who made
personal examination of the land in
question and who, under oath, report
ed upon IL. To have another examina-
ton made by other persons would be
going over the ground again and moth
ing could be gained by IL. AS prom
inent citizen said to-day: TT is a
bunco game on the face of it,"
Emphasis should be given to the fact
that. under the law. there are no
means at the disposal of the govern
ment to secure witnesses at these con-
tests. The defense of the mineral lands
rests with the people and, If these lands
are to be saved from the railroad COM
pany, the people must awaken to a
realization of the responsibility that
rests upon them.

Alderman Thompson rose to object TO
the tone of the communication. IL was
written i'm a vein which treated the
city corporation too lightly. he thought.
and was disrespectful to that body.
The petitioner was altogether too fun
ny, and his reference to the marshal
was uncalled for, when that official had
merely performed his plain duty In the
premises. The alderman thought the
opening which Mr.. Hefferlin was cut
ting i'm the sidewalk would be unsafe
and a deadfall upon the streets He
asked that the petition be referred to
the committee on streets and alleys,
and that the committee be given au-
thority to proceed against Mr.. Hefferlin
by injunction or otherwise. in the
event that he did not desist when or
dered to do so.
Mayor Harvey said he had advised
Mr.. Hefferln to ask the council for the
privilege. and not cut the entrance
through their walk without their au-
thority. But Mr.. Hefferlin said he pre-
ferred to go ahead with the work and
petition afterwards. Then he would be
more likely to get what he wanted
without waiting all summer. The petit
ton was finally referred.
