The annual report of county re-

be submitted to the commissioners
this week by Clerk Kelly, will
probably appear next week in these
columns, the publication tf the
official proceedings being delayed un-

j. E. WATSON was in from Gilt Edge
yesterday attending to some mining
matters In the land Office. He says
that Monday night the crew struck a
rich body of ore in a tunne being run
group, the depth at the time being
300 feet and the ore body extending
entirely across the exposed wall and
above. The new mill is enclosed and
but about thirty tons of machinery
are yet to be received. Manager King
is pushing operations with all his
energy.
In this issue appears the patriotic
address delivered by Rev. Kenneth
Brown at the Presbyterian church
Thanksgiving day. The facts and
figures, as well Is the comparisons,
will be found of great interest to
every patriotic American, and while
statements may appear impossible
the authority is cited in almost
every instance. The whole makes II
compilation of statistics valuable to
student and general reader and by
many will doubtless be considered
worthy OF preservation.
A copy of the articles of incorpora-
ton of the Standard Exploration Co.
of Denver has been filed with the
county clerk. This is the company
operating the New Year mine, on
which they have a bond for $40, 900.
The incorporatOrs are Herbert Nj.
Monroe, Cornelius Ferris, Jr., and
Edward Kent, while w. E. Johnston
tary, all of Denver. Thecapital stock
is fixed at 800, 600, divided into 1000
equal shares. The officers of thecOm.
pany have designated X. Won Tobel,
Jr., as their agent in Lewistown.
The evidence of improved condi-
tions in the county is everywhere
noticeable. Monday afternoon
gentleman accosted the writer on
the street and inquired If he knew of
anyone who had a little real estate
to sell cheap, remarking that while
two and three years ago the last day
for paying taxes was an excellent
time to eel bargains in real estate,
he had been unable to even secure an
offer this year. The people have
money in these good Republican
times and do not have to close out
their property at a loss i'm order to
pay taxes.
The Citizens Electric Co.'s ditch is
very nearly completed, only lacking
a small amount of regarding. Water
was turned in the ditch last week.
The machinery, at least a great
portion of it, is now en- route and
teams have been engaged to bring it
from the railroad as promptly as it
reaches that point. Allowing for
much delay, which does not at this
time seem necessary, the plant should
be in operation by Arril LIST or
earlier. The entire plant is of the
very best make obtainable and ex
pense has not been spared to procure
all latest improvements in electric
lighting machinery.

there for another year, al Editor
Rosewater and the committee advo

have done. The governor says there
is no money with which to defray
the expenses, that the state is pledg-
ed to return many of the valuable
exhibits and that the only thing to
do is to sell the building, dispose of
some of the exhibits for what they
will bring and ship the balance, the
more valuable portion, back to
Montana. He has accordingly in
structed Commissioners Southerlin to
that effect.

ALFRED TENNYSON.
Professor Wfnchester's Lecture Before
 University Extension Course.

Professor Winchester of Wesleyan gave another of his series of lectures on Victorian writers bcfore the Uriver- sity Extension center ir Warner hall last evening. In spite of the fa1 that there were several other literary at fractions at the same hours every seat in the hall was occupied. The special subject of the evening was Alfred Tennyson,' and praise and criticism of the great poets verses were interspers- ed with selections from his master pieces.
 Professor Winchester considered Tn Memoriam" Tennyson's greatest work In this poem Tennyson has clothed his discussion of great moral questions in the most beautiful poetry. He dis cusses the insistent questions of the age and answers them, not by reason, but by a passionate appeal to the emo- i tions. Professor Winchester doubts if ] all consider Tn Memoriam" Tennyson masterpiece, but thinks they may con- slider '"The Idyls of the King to be such. This poem though grs at in many respects, is greatly handicapped by its
 unreality.
 | Browning may be said to be the great
 leader of the thought of his age, while Tennyson mirrored in the most beauti- ful verse it's best and deepest thought I He was a great lover of law and order
 and dreaded the rabble of democracy
 though believer in liberty. He never
 was a great popular poet, as the people
 felt that he was not one of them.

SALE OF SEATS.


 Unalloted Tickets Offered to the Public
 Yesterday.
 The few seats for the Yale Harvard game remaining after the allotment to graduates and undergraduates of both universities were placed on sale at Os- born Hall Pharmacy yesterday morn- ing at 9 o'colck. There was a steady call for them all day and great many were disposed of before night. In no event was more than three sold to any one person. The spectators were on hand early but it is not thought that many tickets fell into their clutches. They have opened an office near Traeger's on Chapel street, and are openly advertising their business. The management fears that some coun- terfeit tickets have been printed and that these speculators will foist them upon the unsuspecting public. Steps have been taken to detect the guilty parties.
 The demand for tickets increases as the day for the game draws near and it is thought that al least 20,000 people will be in attendance.
 The Harvard team will leave Cam bridge tomorrow morning and remain at Meriden over night, coming to this city on Saturday morning.

 The Yale-H Harvard freshman game will be played at Yale field next Satur- day morning at 10:30.

 Prof. Fisher spoke of the interests of the city and of the university as being identical and said that whatever ad- vance the university makes rebounds to the good of the city. He said: We form with the city one educational sys- tenn. There is a question as to wheth- CT it is right for the larger towns to support high schools by indiscrimirnte , taxation. In a city like New Haven | there are reasons which may properly be alleged for the support of 6 high school, which do not prevail in other towns.
