Tic Real London Fog.

Col. Harry Johnson, who knows the
London fog as he knows bread. said
the other day: 'The yellow fog is
the worst variety. 1t is so thick that
you can not see your hand at arms

along their beats by following the

was killed last Christmas by Joseph
Meenan, was married to n daughter of
George Tuttle. Mrs. Perry Tuttle is su-
perintendent CT schools for Washing
ton county.
Elmer Shanks is cousin of the Tut
tie boys, and Clinton Dansdill, the 9th
cr prisoner, Is an cmployc Of the Tat
ties.
Naturally, all sorts of rumors are
afloat. One story heard on the streets
of Akron is that Perry Tuttle will be
charged with the shooting of Meenan
and that the other defendants will be
tried as accessories.
1t was brought out at the coroner's
inquest that most of the men now un-
der arrest made threats against the life
of Joseph Meenan, although these
threats were made at the time of the
killing of John Irwin by Joseph Nee
man, and when excitement was running
high.
One of the questions most frequently
heard here is: Where was Perry Tut
tie on the night of the Meenan mur-
dcr?" He swore at the coroner's in
quest that he spent the night at his
fathers ranch. Shanks and Dansdill
corroborated this story. Meenan was
shot about O'Clock Friday night al
| though the body was not found until
| Sunday following. Perry Tuttlc,

eral story as to how they spent Fri

Rio erande increases Wages.

Denver, April 12.-The Rio Grande
railroad reached an agreement with lts
engineers and fremen yesterday on
the wage question. AT final confer
encc between Manager Edison and the
engineers committee yesterday after
noon it was agreed that engineers and
fremen should receive an increase OF
wages of five per cent. for these on or
binary or simple engines. and seven
and one-half per cent for those on
compound engines.
The original demand of the engine
men was for an increase of fifteen per
cent. for simple and twenty per cent.
for compound engines. This the ofii-
cials refused to grant. claiming that
the wages of the engineers and fire
men were already higher than those
of any other class of employees. The
question was discussed back and forth
for weeks. and it was only after the
settlement had been reached with the
conductors and brakemen week ago
that the enginemen and the company
officers began to get together Every
hing was finally arranged in way
sat- .lactory to both sides.

from the rear of the hall. The sub

President Roosevelt is hunting noun

In company with Major Pitcher, acting
superintendent of the park. and guard
of soldiers, he left Fort Yellowstone
Thursday morning fer iancey's. fifteen
miles east Of Mammoth Hot Springs,
from where he went to Slough creek.
There are more elk and deer in this
vicinity than in any other portion OF
the park, and where the big game Is
most numerous. there are also to be
found the worst mountain lions. The
President will undoubtedly bag a few
lions. although 1t is not known here
whether he has secured any as yet he
will also get plenty of opportunity TO
shoot wolves. as there are many OF TIE
big gray fellows in that section.
The president let Fort Yellowstone
in excellent spirits. No members OF his
party accompanied him to fancey's.
The trip was not an especially difficult
one as the soldiers had broken trail
through the Yellowstone. The snow Is

VALUE OF AUTOMOBILES.
Will Greatly Enlarge Social and susi-
ncso Possibilities.

With the universal adoption of the
motor car. which we are told to en-
pect in the very near future, we shall
be able to live three times as much in
the same span CT years, our horizon
will be extended and our lives will be
wider and mere interesting.
The motor age, on which we have
already notwithstanding to Henry
Norman, who contributes an interest
ing forecast to the Worlds Work
will effect o revolution as remarkable
as that brought about by the steam To-
cOmOtive.
THE average radius of the horse
keeper of today" says Mr.. Norman,
lis twelve miles. With car of ten
or twelve horsepower the radius of
the whole family is comfortably thirty
miles.
THE area of a circle whose radius
is twelve miles is ASP square miles,
but the area of one whose radius is
thirty miles is 2,S27 square miles.
Thus the car owner has Il sphere of
activity exceeding by 2,375 square
miles that of the horse owner, with all
its additional opportunities Of inter
course with his fellows.
In other words, the possession of a
car multiplies the contents and the
eHcctlVe sphere OF man ne.
Think of what it means. Every
friend within 5000 square miles can
be invited. any Place of worship or
lecture or concert attended and busi-
nezs appointment kept. the train met
at any railway station. every post and
tele graph and telephone office within
reach. every physician accessible, any
place reached for golf or tennis or
fishing or shooting, and with it all
fresh air inhaled under eXhilarating
conditions. 1t is a revolution in daily
life
THE influence upon the community
will be no less than upon the individ-

that the president contemplates visit
to that strange canon. The snow Is
deep in that vicinity.
The weather was fairly good when
the president left Fort Yellowstone.
Thursday morning. but it turned bad
Friday. 1t has been showing heavily
since and has turned cold. Those who
have been in the park many seasons
say that the weather is worse now than
il ever was before, so far as white men
know. at this time of the year 1t is
showing heavily to-day. The wind is
not blowing. however. and it is not
thought that the snow will drift to any
great extent. The President and his
guard will have no special difficulty in
reaching Fort Yellowstone. as the dis
lance is not great and a good trail has
been broken.
President Roosevelt and Major Pitch
er will return to Fort Yellowstone Tues
day If the chief executive carries out
his present plans. He will leave imme-
diately On tour of the park. 1t is his
intention 10 go through to the lake.
New SHOWS will make the trip more
difficult than was anticipated. but 1t is
understood that the president proposes
to make it if he has to travel on Skis

pany the president on the trip through
