Directors of the Country Club Decide
to Make Extensive Additions
to the Golf Links.
BASE BALL GIVES WAY TO GOLF
Base Ball Grounds at the Country Club
Will be Abandoned in order to Make
Room for Three New Courses.

The board of directors of the Keno
sha Country Club met at the Grant
House last Saturday evening, and as
result of the meeting it was decided
that extensive Improvements will be
made on the property of the club dur
ing the next few months. AS the house
was put in splendid condition last
year, the directors will improve the
links this year by the addition of five
new greens, making the links a four
teen hole course instead of nine hole.
For this purpose the board of directors
decided that the land formerly used as
base ball ground, at the Country club,
would be used in laying out three OF
the new courses. Another will be laid
out in the northwest corner of the
grounds, from the flag staff in front OF
the club house, and the fifth hole will
be laid out in the east end OF the held,
Just over the creek.
The addition of these greens to the
course will make it the longest in the
state, and for natural facilities it is
not excelled in the Northwest. Only
one of the new holes will have any
natural hazards, but the club will prob
ably build many artificial hazards for
the defense of the other holes laid
out.
During the last season golf took the
place of every other sport IN Keno
sha, and the directors of the club de-
cided that it was useless to have base
ball field in connection with the club.
The changes ordered by the board of
directors will leave the ball players of
the city without a place to play, but a
movement is now on foot to secure an
enclosed field for them as soon as the
season opens.
Considera BILE money will be spent by
the Country club during this year, and
the larger part of the expenditure will
be made for the Improvement of the
course. The greens will be put in fine
condition as early as the middle. of
April, and Kenosha promises to have a
team in the field early in the season.
The players from this city will enter
every tournament in the National
Association of Golf Clubs, and, from
their work last year, it is expected
that many trophies will be brought
home to the local club house. During
the season it is probable that, an in
vitationa1 tournament will be arranged
in which ali the clubs in the North
West will contest.
The annual meeting of the members
of the cub will be held at the Grant
House at 8 O'Clock this evening. The
main business of the meeting will be
the election of three directors and the
reports of the various officers of the
club.
The club is said to be in splendid
financial condition, and a prosperous
season is assured.

ABATE THE NUISANCE.
Wisconsin Telephone Company Slacken
Park Avenue Wires.

Without the aid of the law property
owners residing on Park avenue have
received at least partial relief from the
singing wires of the Wisconsin tele-
phone company. The grievances of
the people were presented and the COM
pany yesterday ordered a large number
of men to proceed to abatc the nuis-
ance. The men went all along the
line and the wires were s1ackened and
in this manner the noise was almost
completely done away with.
Some of the property owners were
seen today and stated that the action
of the company had largely removed
the objectiona1 noise on the wires. AS
soon as possible the wires on Park
avenue poles will be placed in cables
and this will further remove the noise.

TO PROTECT THEMSELVES
Kenosha Milk Dealers to Protect Them
selves Against Chicago Milk Sharks.

selves Against Chicago Milk Sharks.
Kenosha county milk dealers have
been asked to unite with dealers from
other counties adjacent to Chicago Tor
the purpose of forming an association
for mutual protection. During the last
few years the dealers in the towns
about Chicago have been at the mercy
of a gang of can collectors. The milk
is shipped to Chicago and when del1v-
cred the milk cans are left on the side
walk awaiting a wagon to deliver them
to the station. In this way many cans
fall into the hands of the alleged
agency and they at once write the
owners, demanding fifty cents for each
can SO lost.
It has been recently learned that
regular men are employed to steal the
cans. and the farmers will not only re-
sist the payment of the ransom money
but will make an effort to have the
men at the bottom: of the agency placed
under arrest on charge of larceny.
Kenosha county milk dealers have
paid hundreds of dollars for the return
of cans stolen in this manner.
Besides this the association will seek
to make uniform price for milk de-
1ivered in Chicago. The farmers are
now receiving all the way from two to
four cents, and the association will
seek to make d universal rate of four
cents for all milk delivered to the Chi
cago trade.
The association will be great bene-
fit to the milk dealers in this county.

ANNUAL ROUNDUP UNDER WAY
Work of Branding the Cattle on the
Great Flathead Reservation
Taken Up.

Kalispell, Sept. 25.-The annual fall
cattle roundup on theFlat head reserva-
ton has begun. Arthur Larivee will
again be foreman.
The thousands Of cattle that have been
running over the plains and hills of the
reservation will be rounded up and sort
ed out according to the brands they bear
and will then be taken in charge by their
owners. i 70,
The annual spring and fall roundups
on the Flathead reservation are not
things of beauty and ease. as is often
imagined by the tenderfoot, but on the
contrary those who participate in them
have to be men that are used to the sad
die and Injured to all kinds of hardships.
From early dawn until late at night
and often all night, the cowboys on the
roundup have to be in the saddle and tie
merry chase after the festive bovine

their owners. In
The roundup this fall will be big one
and will probably last two weeks on
more. A number of the reservation cat

chasing supplies and looking after good
cowmen. The past season has been most
propitious for the stock on the reserva-

and one situated in an oval-shaped bas-
in Through which flows GrasShoppel
creek.
The surrounding country is composed
of high limestone hills and the leads
are situated in metamorohized syenite
or diorite, which contains large per-
centage of lime.
Surrounding this central core" of sy-
enite, as it is called, is the contact dyke
known as the Garnet Ore Zone" 1t Is
composed of quartz, born blende, feltspar
and lime thoroughly impresnated with
garnet crystals and showing high
naturalization in iron.
At the surface it is an oxide, but it
changes to a pyrite at depth of from
SO to 70 feet. This reef appears to carry
gold in paying quantities, as samples
taken at haphazard by c. A. Tibhits in
1900, shows a value varying from 81 to
$500 with an average of $7.35 per ton.
Surface indications indicate that this
reef is from 90 to 125 feet in width. Gen
orally the pay ore is found in chimneys
or kidneys and some of these have been
followed to a depth Of 3o5 feet.
