RUMOR UNFOUNDED.

The rumor published in this paper to the effect that the contractor who is building the 7-mile spur to the Pfeiffer Quarries, north of Batesville had thrown up his contract and in do- ing so had disclosed the plans of the Iron Mountain to extend to Evening Shade and on beyond, but which was discredited at the time by the INDEPENDENT, is without founda- tion, says the Batesville Bee. MT. w. H Harris is the contractor and when asked about the matter by the Bee re- porter, said he wondered where the information came from, as he had not thrown up the contract and knew nothing about the plans of the com pany beyond his own contract. Mon- day morning he hired lot of extra teams and men and put them to work on the contract, which he will soon have completed.

The Sabbath school rally at Shiloh,
last Sunday afternoon and evening,
was a splendid success. The meeting
was called to order by Rev. d. III.
Shelly, the county president of the
International Sunday school work.
Next the Shiloh choir gave song, af-
ter which DR.. Ogden of Ionia led in
prayer. Johnny p Smith of Ionia
gave solo, and following this, the
chairman called the attention of the
people to the object of the meeting,
and called on DR.. Ogden for an adj
dress, for which he was prepared, he
having preached TO this people years
ago, knew what allied them, and being
a physician, knew how much they
could bear to take. After this another
solo was given by Mr.. Smith, then an
address by the president. After this
the chairman called on DR.. Ogden to
organize Sunday school which he
did successfully. DR.. d. L. Clausen
was elected superintendent, and Miss
Brown secretary and treasurer. Mr..
Smith then sang another solo.
The evening session was opened by
singing and prayer. Appropriate reci-
tations were rendered by Laura Al
len, Edith Eosenfelder, Latham and
Adah Leach, Maggie Heth and CALVIN
Race. The following township officers
we're elected: d L. Clausen, presi-
dent; Miss Lula Spanogel, secretary,
and Mrs. VIM. Beech, treasurer.

Sold Out And Gone.

Phil Young who has been in bust
ness here for some time as one of the
firm of Fish & Young, has sold out his
interest to his partner, Mr.. Fish, and
left the city Tuesday evening for
Grand Rapids. He also sold his house
and lot which he recently bought OF
Henry Nichols to John w. Cooper.
The reason for this sudden change
is not known, but it has been general
ly understood that he was engaged to
be married and that the event was
soon to occur and the home he had
purchased and fitted up would soon be
occupied by himself and wife.
A cloud seems to have lowered over
the happy scene recently and cast a
shadow on anticipated pleasures. 1t
is said. however, that matters be-
tween Mr.. Young and she that was to
be Mrs. Young were amicably settled
and the marriage called off.
Mr.. Young told the BANNER before
leaving that, as yet, he did not know
where he would locate in business
again.

FATAL WINTER FOR GAME.
Thousands of EIks Have Died In the
Deem WNnmfnc SNOW.

Thousands of EIks Have Died In the
Deep Wyoming Snow.
If President Roosevelt were in the
Jackson's Hole country at the present
time, he would be as thoroughly dis
gusted as he must have been on his
southern hunt when he failed to Sc
cure shot at a bear. says the Evans
ton (WyoD correspondent of the Nash
vile American. But the cause of the
disgust would be different. No true
sportsman would accept conditions as
they are at the present time. Elks are
lying down and dying in canyons and
on the hills by the thousands, starved
because the remarkably heavy SHOWS
of the present winter have prevented
them from getting at the tough grass
upon which they feed.
Great droves- of elks are to be seen
a still more remarkable condition-in
sight of the small hamlets which may
be met every fifty or seventy miles in
this wild country. The animals have,
from necessity, become predatory in
nature. Haystacks, carefully put up
and wire fenced to prevent the cattle
from reaching them and which are de-
pended upon for preventing the starva-
ton of the domestic animals, are the
prey of the elk The wire fences,
which form an insuperable barrier to
cattle, are as nothing to the high jump
ing elEs which go over the fences like
a flock OF sheep and leave as little Of
nutritious substance behind them.
a mountaineer who came into Evans
ton while the correspondent was IN
&c vNIn
ness that he saw one drove of 5000 elks
and that they were so tanned by hun
ger that he could approach within fifty
feet of them. Herds of 1900 have been
common the present winter, but the
herd this mountaineer claims to have
seen exceeds in numbers any herd seen
in recent years.
In consequence of the many elk car
casSes upon the mountains bears are in
high feather. The mountains are said
to be full of them, and the president in
his coming hunt will without doubt
find n sufficiency of this class of game.
Wolves and coyotes are thick and may
even be seen from the train securing
over the snow clad hills, yelping out
the painful wall of starvation.
The president will have much to en-
counter in passing over the snow clad
hills. For years the snowfall has not
equaled that of the present winter. and
the canyons are deep with the white
bedding. On March a heavy snow
again fell in the mountains. although
the foothills were favored by its alb
sence. Snowshoes, from present ap-
pearances, will be necessary far into
April, and then mud will reign.

Didn,t Know a Lndybug.

There are cases where it is unwise to
be too scientific. One of our contempt
raries tells how the principal trustee of
school district No. 16 was entertaining
young man fresh from college who
had driven out to his house to apply
for the position of teacher of the school
in that district. AS they sat on the
porch after dinner the trustee casually
called attention to a familiar little
orange colored bug with black spots on
Dts back that was crawling on the floor.
Il s'pose you know what that is?' he
said.
Yes replied the applicant, eager to
show his technical knowledge. THAT
is Coccinella septempunctata."

Must Pull For Everybody.

Recent occurrences in regard to Vene-
zuela give point to little story told by
President Castro, who seems to have Il
keen sense of humor A certain wealthy
South American died without a will.
His disappointed heirs eXpectant there
upon conspired with a notary. A string
was tied around the dead mans neck,
and the notary proceeded to request
his assent to the requests agreed upon
by the conspiratOrs. You leave your
cattle to Maxine, your house to Marie,
your coffee to Jose" At each of these
questions the string was pulled, and
nod was obtained from the corpse.
Then the notary mentioned a bequest
10 himself, but the holder of the string
did not pull. This authentic story was
narrated in Caracas the other day by
President Castro. 1.-The nOtary's eX-
clamation,' concluded the Venezuelan
president, accurately describes an ex-
listing international situation. Threat
ening to tear up the document, he
cried, oh, the string must be pulled
for everybody or there will be no
will"

sentative. ''for L have received long
communication favoring the bill, Which
/ am inclined to oppose. l thought l
would come over and ask you about it.
The communication recites these rea-

THE PoPE's NEW POEM.
In Classic Verse Leo XIII. Expresses
His Last Prayer"

Here is DR.. William II. Wards met
rical translation, published in the In
dependent, of the remarkable Latin
poem with which the pope has just Gel
ebrated his ninety third birthday and
the twenty fifth anniversary of his
election to the papal throne. The pope
himself calls the poem "Leo's Last
Prayer" Copies have been presented
by his holiness to each of the cardinals
of the sacred college.
Leo, now sets thy sun: pale is its dying
ray;
Black night succeeds thy day.
Black hight for thee: wasted thy frame;
life's flood sustaiEs
No more thy shrunken veins.
Death casts his fatal dart: robed for the
grave. thy bones
Lie under the cold stones.
But my freed soul escapes her chains and
longs in flight
70 reach the realms of light.
That is the goal she seeks: thither her
journey fares;
Grant, Lord. my anxious prayers,
That with the citizens of heaven Gods
face and light
May ever thrill my sight;
That may see thy face Heavens Queen.

How Lord Kitchener Dances.

At the durbar state ball Lord Kitch-
ener's knowledge of the figures was of
the vaguest kind, and in consequence
whenever the call sides" was given
all he succeeded in doing was to tie
himself and his partner in the most
absurd knot, to the intense amuse-
ment of the others in the set and of
the large crowd looking on. The hero
of Khartum was beaming with delight,
and so he Numbered through to the
end. When the music ceased, he was
in the middle of the room looking for
his partner and laughed heartily when
she came up and found him.-Indian

Smoking Senator'S.

Most senators are given to modera-
ton in the matter of tobacco. and very
few smoke about the capitol except in
the committee rooms. Senator Frye,
president pro tenn, used to be an in
veterate smoker and was seldom with
out cigar. Now, however, he has linn
tied himself to three or four n day.
Senator Plat of Connecticut and
Senator Cullom are about the most
vigorous smokers i'll the upper house.
Senator Platt. however, INDUCES the
habit more freely at his hotel at night.
He lights up Immediately after dinner
and pulls away until his retiring hour
at II.
Senator Hale never smoked in his
life, and Senator Aldrich is never seen
with n cigar at the capitol. The same
cannot be said of Senator Allison.
But of all statesmen Uncle Joe"
Cannon is the champion smoker. At
almost all hours of the day he is seen
smoking, and when he is pushing q big
appropriation bill through the house he
invariably has an unlighted cigar in bis
mouth

DOGS IN GERMAN ARMY.
New Instructions Regarding Train
ing of the Animals.

New Instructions Regarding Train
ing of the Animals.
New instructions have been issued to
the German army regarding the en-
ployment of dogs in field service, says
a Berlin dispatch to the Chicago Rec
ord-Herald. Every infantry company
must have at least two thoroughly
trained dogs, but every battalion is not
to have more than twelve. They must
be thoroughbreds and of the best pedi-
grees.
Hitherto Airedale terriers have been
used, but experiments are being contin-
ued with German bred dogs. Provision
is made for the training of the dogs, to
begin at the earliest age possible in
doors and later in the field, where a
dog must intelligently understand or
ders, like going forward to a vedette
post or returning to headquarters
must give warming of the approach of
strangers and must keep absolutely
quiet at whispered command to do so.
The chief service of the dogs is keep
ing up rapid communication between
the vedette posts themselves and also
the posts and headquarters.
