train pulls up for moment to receive
and discharge its passengers at the lit
tie station.
When the stage is ready, with all on
board for a days ride to and through
the great Gates Of the Mountains, the
ascent at first is up a sharp incline,
thence east across the summit to an
untfmbered and prairie-like valley, into
which the route leads the way. This
is the Centennial valley, unknown to
geography until the centennial year.
Here the great bed of the glacial lake
extends for fifty miles. bordered by the
snOw-capped peaks of the main range
of the Rocky mountains. In this val
ley and at the very base Of this great
mountain range, the road winds it's
way past Reeds station and Blake's
Springs to Shambow. at Lower Red
Rock lake. near the base of Humphrey
mountain.
The entire ride has thus far been in
full view of the Madison range, still

northwest corner of the National park.

that his ambitious son, who is eager TO
excel in his studies. was barred from
school for nearly three weeks on ac-
count OF the scratched desk.
On returning from Western trip
few days ago Mr.. Shannon heard Of
Willie's frenzied assault on the desk.
1t was purely an accident, the boys
slate having caused a small mark on
the polished surface. For this he was
suspended by Principal Tisdall on a re-
port Of the crime sent in by Miss Fake,
the teacher.
The board of education imposed the
fine and Willie remained at home and
wept because Of the disgrace.

everybody concerned Mr.. Shannon drew
the check for % cents. Next day he
received a thankful acknowledgment

Before Hizzonner.

Missoula. May 14.-Hizzoner, Judge
Myers, had a lot OF tough characters
before him yesterday afternoon. Four
of them were on trial for petty larceny
and their trial was continued. but the
fifth was a fellow who had been beg
ging on the streets for several days.
AS HizZoner q at him he recog-
nized a nan who had been described
as trying to hold up an engineer the
other morn. Hizzoner promptly
cross-eXamined the fellow as to his
conduct and was soon satisfied that
he had the would-be nighwayman. The
prisoner was confident. too, that the
Judge had him in a tight box. so he
said: Your honor, / will walk right

chance" Hizzoner looked thoughtfully
at the prisoner for a and said

Herman Refused Leave of Absence to
John NJ. Evans.
Missoula, May 14.-The refusal of the
commissioner OF the general land Office
to grant the leave of absence asked for
by John NJ. Evans, register of the Mis-
soula office, when that gentleman had
been appointed captain of the Helena
company of Montana infantry, has o.
casioned considerable comment in this
city, as il had been generally under
stood that the departments at Wash
ington had decided to give leave of
absence to all who wished to enlist.
The telegram in which Commissioner
Hermans sent his refusal was very
brief and gave no reason. A letter re-
ceived from him to-day, however.
makes the matter a little palmer. The
letter is dated at the department of the
interior. general land Office. Washing

lows:

Il was the duty of the assessor TO as
