the Lower Amiman. v
Instinct has been defined AS sort
or iaG1rted knowledge peculiar to the
lowe animals That man possesses
many analogous traits we all know;
but there is one SO subtly engrafted In
his nalure that, under certain circum-
staa S, he is unconsciously made to
act in precisely the same manner as
the wild animal and that is in circle
travelling. 1t is a peculiar instict
which causes wild animals, when pur
sued for any considerable distance.
always to travel In a circle; and man,
when lost on the veldt, the prairies,
or in the forest, uncOnsciousy becomes
controlled by the same instinct and Is
made to bend his course and travel in
circle, and return to the same place
from whence ha started. A notable in
stance of this Is mentioned by Mr..
Catlin, an American traveller of repute,
which occurred while ascending the
upper Missouri. He had left the steam
or on which he had been sailing up the
river, with the object of reaching an
Indian village by making a shOrt-cut
across prairie on foot accompanied
only by single attendant In our
course" said Mr.. Catlin, I'VE had
prairie of some thirty miles to GLOSS;
and the second day, being dark and
cloudy, we had no object by which to
guide our course having no compass
with me at the time. During the first
day the sun shone, and we kept our
course very well; but on the next

began to bend, Notwithstanding that
we appeared to be progressing In
straight line. There was nothing to be
seen about us but short grass, every

before, and which we had left on that
morning. We had turned to the left
and no doubt had Travelled all day la
circle. The next day, having the sun
shine, We laid land kept our course
without any difficulty. On arriving at
the Sioux village and relating our sim
gular adventure, the Indians laughed
at us very heartily, and all the ch efs
united in assuring me that whenever

els in circle, and also that he invari-
ably turns to the left; of which singu-

Secretary Logan of the Central Mon

steady growth in the membership of
the organization, the roll at present
showing considerably over so names.
AS the objects of the society are becom-
ing better understood by the sheepmen,
interest in it is growing and a marked
increase in the membership is expected
before the time shall arrive for holding
the the next meeting. Many men who
have hitherto paid but little attention
to the matter of organizing are begin
ming to see the benefits to be derived
through the existance of such an organ
ization and are applying for admission.
AS soon as the trading season is over
active efforts will be put forth to secure
the enrolment of every fockmaster in
the eastern and central portions of the
state, as it is the desire of the men
principally concerned in organizing
the association to make it one of the
strongest concerns of the kind in the

HARRY H. FLETCHER & CO.
Forsyth, Montana

DR.. Grinstead has returned from
Helena, where he went to take the ex-
animation before the State Medical
board and was the central figure in
an unpleasant incident connected with
the examination that may result in
legal proceedings. During the pro-
gress of the examination DIR. Grin
stead made brief notes of his answers
to the questions. These memorandums
were written on slips from his pre-
scription book and were made for the
purpose of later investigation and COM
parison for his own satisfaction. The
doctor was doing his work openly,
when he was approached by DR.. Rid
del, the examiner. The latter pre-
emtorily demanded DR.. Grinstead to
turn over these notes, which in view of
the brusque manner of the examiner
he declined to do. A few hot words
followed and after DR.. Grinstead re-
tired he was notified that his papers
would not be considered. DR.. Grin
stead presented himself the following
day and signified his readiness to pro-
coed, but the board backed up the sec
rotary and he was not permitted to
complete the examination. After no
tifying the chairman of the board that
he had complied with all the require
ments and had been denied his rights
in the matter, he stated that he would
return to Forsyth and resume his prac-
tice, which he Immediately did To a
News man DR.. Grinstead stated that
the examining surgeon was SO insult
ing in his manner that he declined to
submit to the indignity. The insinu-
alton that man could prepare a key
to the whole science of medicine on a
few slips of paper, is absurd on its
face and if the doctor cares to pursue
the case. he can easily establish his
right to an examination. DR.. Grinstead
has diploma from Bellyue, New York
that is recognized by the American
Medical association, has passed salts
faCtorily before several state medical
boards and has been practicing medi-
cine for d number of years. On coming
to Montana he was issued temporary
permit by this same board. The doc
tor will continue his practice and will
take the case into court if necessary.

Sunday all traffic OH the Northern
Pacific was suspended for five hours
on account of a disastrous wreck that
occurred three miles west OF Billings
at 7:45 in the morning. A journal on
a car just back of the engine of an ex-
ira eastbound freight train burned off
and the car went down. The cars inn
mediately behind it lert the track, some
of them turning completely over into
the ditch and others breaking down on
the track. All the cars were heavily
loaded with green lumber. The east
bound North Coast Limited was only
fifteen minutes behind when the wreck
occurred, and a brakeman was sent
back and the train was tagged. The
engines of the passenger and freight
trains were used to clear the track,
and gang of Japs were sent out from
Billings to assist. In order to expedite
matters the cars that blocked the track
were thrown bodily into the ditch.

The news that the coal docks and
section house, DESTROYED by fire last
July. are to be Immediately replaced,
will be welcome to everyone interested
in the welfare of the town. The order
to rebuild the section house was issued
by the general superintendent some
time ago and the lumber for it's con-
struction has been here for several
days, but the matter OF rebuilding the
docks was held in abeyapce. The sec
ton house will be a two story frame
building and will be put up south of
the track. The coal dock, which will
be duplicate of the one burned down,
will be rebuilt on the old location or
very near it. The construction of the
dock will mean the permanent employ
ment of four or five more men, and a
longer wait for passenger trains.
