present. One member VII. be elected
each two years instead OF all being
chosen at the same time. as is the
present custom.
Those who favor the amendment
say that 1t insures the presence of two
experienced men on the board all of
the time. This means much to those
interested in the proper transaction
of the business of the counties. as
IL facilitates the work Of the boards
and prevents mistakes in public mat
ters.
1t is also claimed by those favoring
the amendment that the lengthening
of the term will eliminate politics
from the boards to a certain extent
and will also insure the obtaining OF
substantial business men as members
of the organization.

Billings, Mont, July l5.-Business
on the wool exchange today was about
all growers or sellers could wish for.
or course. clips that were put up were,
in the main. very good, and the prices
they brought were not more than was
due growers.
The sales were about three-fourths
as large as those OF yesterday. The
top price for the season on this mar
ket, as well as equal to the best price
paid in the state, was received for one
clip. The wool in particular was clip
grown by c. +. Williams of Two Dot
and sold by him to James G. Frasier
Of this city. who in turn sold in this
market al l6 cents, It being the best
and prettiest clip so far exposed in
Billings.
Among the sales were:
ID. w. Slayton, Lavina, 100000
pounds at 13 3-i cents to jeremiah
Williams a. Co. and J. koshland & Co..
who tied on their bids and decided to
divide the clip.
DIR. w. Y. Sudduth, Lavina, $4,000
pounds at 1915 cents. to J. Koshland
4 Co.
Growers cannot explain why they
are receiving higher prices for their
wool this year when their clips are
not so good as they were last year.
One seller today sold at a price 2is
cents higher than last season and the
wool. although sheared from the same
sheep. is not as good quality.

Falls wool market got right yester.
day. for the first time this season,
and the upward tendency was pro-
nounced. Two clips were sold at 1874
cents. the highest price paid in the
state for two years and three-eigths
of cent higher than last years top
price. The aggregate sales Of the day
were 100000 pounds, and the average
price was almost Is cents. The clips

times past four persons had occupied the

When last seen. about 5 o'clock the
party was padding near Rocky island, a
mile and a half up the lake. and all was
then apparently well.
About 6 o'clock a severe sauall swept

The canoe was all right when found.
but later was pulled TO pieces by the
throng that gathered at the lake and
carried away for souvenirs.
All day yesterday the lake was dragged
and the shores from end 10 end searched
for traces OF the missing parties. but
nothing could be found other than the
articles enumerated above.
The search was abandoned at dark last

wide, with a considerable depth Of water
at some points.
Woods surround the lake on three sides.
but the western side is open and at times
fierce winds sweep down over the lake.

that the accident occurred.

Although the accident occurred early
Saturday evening the authorities were
not notified until yesterday morning. and
owing 70 the reticence OF everyone con-
nected with the school nothing but the
most meagre details could be secured.
The Rev William r. Albrecht. princi-
pal OF the institute. refused absolutely TO
impart any information yesterday. and
the teachers and pupils OF the school were
equally dumb when asked about the af-
fair.
Coroner Wood and the town authorities
could obtain no more Information from
Mr. Albrecht than could the newspaper
men, as he declined utterly to discuss the
subject.
Twelve or II hours after the drowning
Coroner Wood was notified OF the affair,
the notice coming from some OF the pu-
pills OF the school in the form OF informa-
ton that the three young people had left
the school for a canoeing trip on the lake
the previous afternoon and up to that
time had not returned. This In face OF
the fact that searching parties from the
institute had patrolled the shores of the
lake during the greater portion of the
night.
The coroner engaged number OF men
and boys and proceeded to the lake with
graphing irons and long pole hooks. and
soon every boat on the lake was employ
ed In dragging for the bodies.
INFORMATION REFUSED.
In the meantime the coroner made
three Intellectual attempts 10 gain some
knowledge OF the affair from the school
authorities. being refused on each occa-
sion.
From two OF the students. having more
of a sense OF the terrible nature OF the ac-
cIdent than the others II was learned
that the party lured by the beauty or
the day. had determined 10 take one
more sail upon the lake before Its waters
were closed by ice. and about 2:sO board
ed the canoe on the south side OF the lake
and started for the opposite shore.
The canoe was a frail affair. the property
OF Mr.. Perry. IT was simply light
