lsh New Town.

Syracuse. ~ Y, Sept. 22-John
Hazeltine. known throughout Central
New York as philanthropist, has an
nounced plans to take a colony of
1000 Syracuse people to Montana to
establish town.
Hazeltine has obtained a list of
practically all the poor people of the
city and it is from them that he pro-
poses to select his colonists He ex-
poets every one however, to have $50
when starting on the trip. He states
that he has been in communication
with four families who went from this
section year ago to Montana and it
is upon their statements that he un-
dertakes to form his town. Govern

and Lord Selborne, the first lord of the
admiralty, to be secretary for the col
onies in succession to Joseph Cham
berain.
No official confirmation of the ap
pointments has yet been forthcoming
1t is known that Lord Miner, the
British high commissioner OF Africa
was offered the colonial secretaryship
Premier Balfour's private secretary
informed the Associated Press later
that the reported cabinet appoint
ments had not yet been made.
Apparently ! ord Miner is still con
sidering the offer of the colonial sec
retaryship and thereto is probably due
the delay.
Well informed persons express the
opinion that Lord Selborne will re-
main at the admiralty TO carry out the
reforms he has begun.

hair showed a lihe.a al sprinkling OF
years, broke in by telling OF a Christ
that he spent a long time ago in
Deadwood, when that famous place
was still a wild and bowling mining
camp. There were four OF US bach

Christmas and we were sitting in front
of the fire and specializing as to what
the folks at home were doing. This
started us to talking about Christmas
trees, and we resolved to have one

utes to step outside and cut a pine
sapltng that vas growing near the
cabin. This was planted in an empty
ive-gallon Oil can and then the work
Of decorating it commenced. Speci-

some torn socks, an old gum boot,
a fap5ack that somehow we had over
looked in skirmishdng our last meal,
several sixshooters and the bosom
of a white shirt that n Of us at one
time had owned formed the decora-

was fastened to the very top, and
then our tree was done. After adj
miring it for q short time, we went
in search Of some, of our acQuaint-

help us enjoy what was probably the
only Christmas tree In the gulch.
They came and with them some OF
their friends, until finally our little
shack was SO full that 1t could not

thought It was a huge joke and from
