Excursionists to Cody Return Tired
But Happy.

The exc%ursionists to Cody returned
yesterday morning between IL and 1
O'Clock, a tired and sleepy, but happy
crowd. The return trip was long and
tedious, having been made on a freight
train, and to add to the inconveni-
ences of that mode of travel the train
from the east, with which they con-
nected at Toluca, was many hours
late and they were compelled to re-
main at the junction for a matter of
about IL hours.
In regard to their treatment by the
Codyians they cannot speak in words
of too much praise. Billings money
was absolutely no good during their
stay in the town, as no matter where
they went, nor how hard they tried
they could not spend a nickle. At
the drink %emporiums, restaurants and
all other places visited by them and
conducted for the purpose of gain
they were told that everything had
been paid for. Finally they learned
that prior to their arrival Colonel
Cody had visited all the establish
ments and given orders to have every
thing the Billings visitors wanted
charged to him.
When the excursionists arrived at
Cody they were met by a delegation of
citizens of the town and the two par
ties formed in a column with the
Billings band at the head and marched
to the place where the formal exer-
cises were held. Here speeches were
made, one of the orators being "Buf-
falo Bill" who babe all welcome and
extended the Inequalities of the town
named in his honor. In the evening
a big ball wound up the festivities
and the Billings musicians furnished
the music.

Canadian Officer Believes Few crees
Are in Montana.

Are in Montana.
An officer of the Canadian mounted
police was at Helena last Wednesday
arranging for the %extradition of a
couple of halfbreeds, who were arrest
ed in Valley county recently on the
charge of stealing some horses last
summer from a settler living near
Qu'Apelle. Pending settlement of the
necessary preliminaries the prisoners
were taken to Helena and placed in
Jail.
While at the capital the officer was
asked concerning the efforts made by
his government to prevent the Crees
from straying eros the boundary
line. In reply he said that it was do
ing everything that could be asked
of it and declared that the Crees We're
treated exactly the same as all other
Indians who were wards of his gov
eminent. They are assigned to a res
~ervation and are assisted by the gov
eminent, the same as the other In
dams. In common with all Indians,
he said, they were granted passes to
leave their reservation for the purpose
| of visiting other Indians, and it was
then that they got across the line.
| Although the agent exercised all the
care possible in issuing passes, it was
impossible to prevent the Indians from
visiting each other and once off their
own reservation many of the Crees
took advantage of the temporary free.
dom from restraint they enjoyed and
came into Montana.
He gave it as his opinion that at
present there were not many of the
Indians in the state.

Two little girls after the reading sang
the lullaby of .Nokomis, while a little
boy stepped to the board and drew the

the shore. Dark behind it rose the
pine trees.

numbers. The lesson was on measure
ments, sticks and lines, with the inch
as the unit. The judgments shown in
the use of pint, quart and half gallon
measures were surprising for chill
dren in first grade.
Miss Johnston's class work in
music proved equally as interesting
as that of the previous day.
Professor Hamilton gave many good
suggestions in his talk on "School

Literature" Professor Brother led the
discussion of Advanced Arithmetic

a change from poetry to prose.

tiun of n half dozen or SO Of men. In the
group was an importer Of Japanese ar
ticles, and he snid he had nm article made
of tissue paper that would bear the
weight Of any two men who could jump
on it, and he wagered lunches for the
crowd that they would not break 1t.
The wager was taken up. and then he
drew from his coat pocket what seemed
to be a bundle of brown paper. 1t was
easily concealed in the palm OF his hand,
But he placed his lips to brass nipple
and soon the bundle assumed the shape Of
large doughnut. Fastening the stopper,
Mr.. Van Dusen threw the thing on the
floor and told his companions to 60 ahead
and jump.
First one man stood on the cushion, for
that is what it was, then two men. Next
the two men jumped on it, and then three
men. The men tried to break the bag
| with their heels. The importer watched
the endeavor to make his cushion collapse
for awhile. then said he guessed he had
won the bet.
This was agreed to, and new test of
the strength of the inflated bag was
made. A board was procured and placed
over the cushion on bench. Five men
sat on the board. and the bag collapsed
with report that sounded through the
building like an explosion. An examina-
tion of the broken bag showed it to be
made of rice paper coated with paint
that resembled roofing fluid. The paper
tears easily, and the brokers marveled at
Its strength. The weight Of the cushion
was less than an ounce, and when de-
flated could be tucked away in vest

REPORT WAS EXAGGERATED.
Press Dispatches Concerning Assault
on Ada Ware, Near Valley Junction
Denied by Relatives.


Denied by Relatives.
Mr.. and Mrs. d. e. Hole and daughter,
Esther. of Hartland, are home from
Valley Junction, where they have been
visiting at the home of their cousin.
Mr.. Wilmer Ware. who is also cousin
OF Messrs. o. H. and j. l.. Hole. of this
city, and brother of Rev. A. T. Ware,
formerly pastor of the Friends church,
in this city, now of Massachusetts,
where he is taking postgraduate work in
q theological seminary.
A week ago today there was sent out
from Des Moires sensational dispatch
in which there was told of a terrible
assault upon Ada Ware, the 15-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Wilmer Ware,
of Valley Junction. The dispatch was
in effect that the girl, while on her way
from the Ware home, one and one-half
miles distant from Valley Junction, to
the town. to attend Sunday school, was
assaulted by a couple of negroes who
ravished her. Mr.. Hole says the state
ments were greatly overdrawn and in
many instances were completely foreign
to the truth. The little girl was on her
way to Sunday school, as stated, and
was walking, having taken the Rock
Island railroad right-of-way to reach
her destination. She noticed two coll
ored men ahead of her. and was natu-
rally little frightened. Sse stopped to
allow them to get a long ways ahead of
her, before she started, and as they dis
appeared she thought they had gone in
another direction. The negroes, how
ever, had secreted themselves under
trestle crossing a small bayou, and as
she stepped on the trestle one OF them
rose from the side and made grasp for
her clothing. She turned and ran, with
the negroes after her, and as she crossed
thru wire fence, enclosing the railroad
property, one grabbed her by the arm.
She broke from his grasp, however, and
escaped to her home, unframed. but
thoroughly frightened. Mr.. Ware and
his hired men got shot guns, and after
a short search, found the culprits, turn
ing them over to the officers of Polk

The annual picnic of the Coiumbiana
County Association Of MARSHALL county
at the Soldiers Home park Saturday
was most enjoyable reunion. The att
tendance was large, altho not quite
Sequaling that OF last year. This was
owing to sickness in the families Of a
number Of the members.
{ The program opened with an instru-
mental solo by Miss Martha Mcmillan.
and prayer by Mr.. Josiah Paxson, Of
IeGrand township. Other numbers on
the program were two recitations by
Miss Maud Welker, OF LeGrand, vocal
solos by Mr.. Jury Whealen and Miss
Mcmillan. and short addresses by vari-
GUS members of the association. The
principal address of the day was deliv-
cred by Mr.. Josiah Paxson. who told of
the early days in Columbiana county
and OF the school days in New Lisbon,
when William Mckinley, Stanton and
other boys who have since attained
prominence were among the students.
At the business meeting an effort wac
made to change the rules of the associ-
alton % that all natives of Ohio could
become members. but this proposition
failed TO carry by close vote. The fol-
lowing officers were. elected for. the en-
suing year:

CULINARY cAPERs.


A few slices of orange added to a
cream of tomato soup just before serving
WILL it is sad, improve its flavor.
If cabbages and caulihower are past
their freshness. tiny pinch OF soda or
piece of loaf sugar will revive them.
When any recipe includes the juice of
one lemon, the quantity used should be
four teaspoonfuls, as both the size and
juiciness of lemons vary.
When making tea, ii the kettle should
have boiled. pour cup of cold water in
and let it boil up again before making,
and you will find the tea will be as nice
again.
In cooking macaroni or spaghetti it will
be found an improvement to melt the
butter and cheese together aud add them
to the white sauce, instead of sprinkling
them, as usual. between layers of the
macaroni.
Some time wien you want nm apple
tapioca and apples ara out of season try
pieplant as a substitute. Cut in pieces
and use with few raisins. You will be
glad you tried it if yeu serve whipped
cream with it.

separately in clean cleth wrung ont OF
cold water in which some salt has been
dissolved. lay them on dish ard keep

TIC Owl In uistorx.

The owl was in former times generally
regarded as an omen of misfortune or
death; but as the Egyptians represented
Minerva under the form OF an owl the
Athenians. who were under the care of
this goddess, looked upon the appear
ance of the owl as favorable omen II
therefore formed upon the ancient coins
referred to the symbol of Athens and her
foreign possessions. The Chinese and
the Tartars have also held the owl in
high esteem. The first named used to
wear OWLS feathers in their caps. and
some Tartar tribes still worship idols
made like owls.
